Hello everyone! š

It’s been a while since I did a Q&A post here (sorry about that). Many of you were intrigued by the idea of a reverse Q&A, where I ask you things I’m curious about. So after tackling a few of your questions, I’ll ask you some of my own!
1) Will the Predzels be in any future books?
I’m not sure yet. I haven’t planned to include them, but they may appear in a future story if they could help the main characters.
2) Did Sigurd get Gleym back?
Yes, definitely. š I love the fact that you remembered to ask about her!
3) Do we know what happened to Jigson’s parents?
Oh, I can’t wait for you to read Hunting in the Highlands! The answer is yes!
4) How much of the Hrein Orka in Iceland Intrigue is based on real science, and how much is fiction?
It’s mainly fiction … but who knows? Maybe there are principles of it that someone has yet to discover š
5) What is the significance of ‘Twelve Lemons’?
It’s a phrase with quite a personal meaning for Jigson and Detective Mortimer – otherwise it wouldn’t have guaranteed Jigson’s identity in Iceland Intrigue.
Is it part of a big mystery? Or is it something more innocuous? Will they spill the beans in Book 8? … Maybe!
6) When you wrote Hunting the Highlands did you plan out the whole book before you started writing?
Yes. I did make a careful plan so that the book would progress with logical structure and so I would know where the story was going – it had the potential to be quite confusing with characters splitting up and traipsing all over Scotland.
But the need to be flexible arose when I reached the end and realized that the climax was not right for the story … so a whole new ending had to be written!
Do you have burning questions for a future post? Send them via the contact page!

Now … here are my questions for you! š
1. Who are your top 2 favourite male characters?
2. Who are your top 2 female characters?
3. Who is your favourite villain? (Miss Verton, Lewis Nickel, Bud Larone, Rolf/escaped convicts, Dainn, Herr Klaus, or someone else?)
4. Which is your favourite title in the series, and why?
5. Should one of the characters be in a relationship/courtship? Who and why? (I’m not promising anything by asking this š I’m genuinely curious! š )
I look forward to finding out what you think! š
I hope that everyone is okay with me taking the next one.
1. Who are your top 2 favourite male characters?
-Andy and Fergus. (though I almost cried when Jigson “Died”)
2. Who are your top 2 female characters?
-Abby and Briosa
3. Who is your favourite villain? (Miss Verton, Lewis Nickel, Bud Larone, Rolf/escaped convicts, Dainn, Herr Klaus, or someone else?)
-Miss Verton
4. Which is your favourite title in the series, and why?
-Recue in the Rockies or Hunting in the highlands. Because it has the lads in it.
5. Should one of the characters be in a relationship/courtship? Who and why? (Iām not promising anything by asking this š Iām genuinely curious! š )
-Phil and Briosa, which your already doing. And Abby and Fergus when their old enough.
I hope you like it! I don’t know why my image changed.
Jigson stood in front of the window while he talked to Mortimer. They were sitting in Rolfās room while they waited for him to wake up. āIām glad that I did go into that room. Rolf might have died otherwise. Still, Iām surprised that you didnāt tell me that you had Rolf on the inside.ā
Mortimer looked up, āI didnāt.ā
Jigson turned from the window, āWhat?! Then what was he doing there?ā
Mortimer stood and walked over to him, āI have no idea. I was hoping to ask him when he wakes uā¦ā¦..ā Mortimer ceased talking, for Rolf had started to stir. They waited a couple of minutes for him to fully wake up.
Mortimer sat down next to Rolf, looked at Jigson, then turned to Rolf, āRolf, what were you doing at the headquarters?ā
Rolfās face turned white, āI canāt tell you.ā He said shakily.
Mortimerās face hardened, āYou canāt, or wonāt?ā Rolf looked at the wall. Mortimer looked at Jigson with a worried look. āRolf, please. Tell us.ā
Rolf turned his head and looked at Mortimer, āYou have to promise not to tell anyone.ā Mortimer and Jigson both nodded. āI had heard a rumour about Karlās whereabouts.ā
āWho is Karl?ā
Rolf cleared his throat, āKarl is my cousin. He is the same age as me, and we went to the glen together. When we were thirteen his father died, and he went to the funeral.ā Rolf looked sad, āHe disappeared after the funeral. They never found out what happened to him.ā
Mortimerās mind was whirling, but he knew Rolf had to rest. They walked out of Rolfās room, and down to the waiting room.
Rolf fell asleep within a few minutes, but was soon plagued by dreams. Rolf waited outside Ceannard Lachlanās office for Karl. When he came out he looked like he had been crying, he walked over to Rolf and sniffled. āMy father is dead. I must go to his funeral.ā
Rolfās face softened a little bit, āIām sorry, Caraid Karl.ā
Karl looked down, then back at Rolf. āItās not like you and your father. My father and I were close. I might not see you for a while.ā They were interrupted by one of the new recruits, Cassidy Drummond, asking if they could show her the way to the training field.
After they showed her which way it was, Rolf looked at Karl. āCaraid, what do you mean?ā
Karl looked around, āI canāt tell you. Listen, youāre my best friend. I wish there was another way, but there isnāt.ā He gave Rolf a quick hug, āI have to go pack.ā
Rolf was awakened by a nurse checking on him. After she left, he thought about the last time he had been close to finding Karl. He had run right into him, but that was before he had met the Bakers. He sighed, he so missed Karl.
I hope y’all are alright with me making up a new character.
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed this, but none of us have mentioned Phil in this fanfic.
It’s like subconciously we still think he’s dead.XD
Ah!!! Great job, Heather!
Yeah, I think the last time we mentioned the Bakers was when we were still determining if your scene of Phil dying was part of Cameron. XD
I have to reread through what we’ve written, but I’ll try to take another scene soon!
Awesome, Heater!
Wow! That’s so so SO GOOD!!!! I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE NEXT PART!!
It’s a little late, but happy birthday to this post. XD
Oh! I totally forgot! Happy Birthday post! š
WOW!!! THAT’S CRAZY! ONE WHOLE YEAR!!!!
Two part scene, just because Phil needed to jump into the action:)
———-
Cameron rolled over, a dull pain shooting through his head. He shook his head, trying to rid himself of it. The last thing he remembered was a sweet odor and something cold touching his nose. He groaned, then forced himself into a sitting position. A barren room greeted his eyes, as well as the still form of his brother.
He leaned his head against the wall. Fletchā¦
He winced as pain stabbed through his head. They must have used a double dose.
Fletch needed another way to set his plan into motion. But how⦠What route would he use next? It would have to be someone Mortimer and Jigson trusted, someoneā
Cameronās head swirled and he braced a hand against the ground.
He wouldnāt try the Bakers, would he?
āPsst!ā
Cameron wearily lifted his head, his eyes drooping. That potion must be winding up for a second round.
Was that a slit in the door?
He shoved against the wall and rose. Then he stumbled toward the door, falling against it moments later with a heavy thud.
āTake this.ā
A packet was pressed into his hand.
āWhat isāā
āSmelling salts.ā
Cameron fumbled to rip the package open, then inhaled. His eyes shot open and he staggered against the wall. āWow.ā He shook his head. āAll right. Let me wake my brother up and you can break us out.ā
āNein. Fletch would discover before you could even leave this level.ā
Cameron cocked his head. āRolf Klaus?ā
A thin chuckle formed on the other side. āHe always said we sounded alike, but, nein. Iām not Rolf.ā
Cameron leaned against the door. āWhatās the point of keeping me awake if you arenāt going to break us out?ā
Something scraped through the slot, and Cameron ran his fingers over a gun. Another followed.
āTasers,ā the voice said. āA gunshot will be too loud.ā
āButāā
āWake your brother. Theyāll come for you within the hour.ā
———-
A soft knock sounded against the door. Jigson opened it.
āPhil?ā
Phil glanced over his shoulder before entering the room. Then he extended a hand to Jigson. āItās good to see you my friend!ā
Jigson shook it, allowing a smile to slip onto his face. āBut why are you here?ā
āThe Detective contacted me last night. Very cryptic language, but it sounded like something was wrong with Rolf, and both of you were needed to find Garth and someone named Cameron.ā
āYouāre here to stay with Rolf then?ā
Phil nodded.
āOkay, great.ā Jigson grabbed his coat and reached for the door knob, but Phil caught his hand.
āIt might be best not to exit by the front entrance. There were some guys watching me when I entered andā¦ā Phil trailed off.
Jigson squeezed his shoulder. āYouāre not paranoid. Theyāre probably here for me.ā He sighed. āPhil?ā
Phil lifted his head. āYes?ā
āPray for us. Pray that good would triumph.ā Jigson shook his head. āWe wonāt survive without it.ā
Yay, Phil’s back! So good Kenleaf! š
So, so, so good! I wasn’t sure if Karl was still alive or not! Yay for bringing back Phil! And, should I be worried about anyone?
Kenleaf: “I’ll try to get one posted soon” *posts one hour later* Me:That was sooner than soon! LOL
Well, you could be worried about Jigson and Dectective Mortimer because they always seem to run headlong into trouble.
…And Garth and Cameron because they’re still captured.
…And Rolf and Phil because, well, throw those two together and you’re bound to wind up with both trouble and daring actions.
…And I guess we should still be worried about Karl because…
*shrugs* They’re all kind of still in danger, so…
XD. I thought it’d take longer to think of the next part, but your scene evoked some great thought:)
But is it really Phil? *is acting like winnie-the-pooh*
Funny thing you should ask because, while I was writing that, I was thinking, “This doesn’t sound like Phil.” *falls silent for a moment, then grins* I guess it’s up to whoever writes the next scene!
Ha! I guess it does. *evil laugh*
*headdesk*
(Are you taking the next one?)
I’m thinking about it.
*agrees about Phil*
THIS WAS AWESOME!!!!
Well, since you all thought Phil wasn’t Phil, that might as well be turned into a plot twist.
———-
āPhilā glanced at the still figure on the bed, then slid a map onto the bedside table. Then he slipped out of the room. Chuckling, he pulled a cell from his pocket as he strode down the hall. He dialed a number.
The recipient picked up after two rings. āBetter be important, Devin.ā
āFletch,ā he said lightheartedly. āJigsonās on his way out the back door. My men will bring him to headquarters.ā
āAnd Mortimer?ā
Devin chuckled. āRight. Iāll take care of him in a moment. The mapās delivered. Klaus will find it when he wakes.ā Devin pressed the elevator button. āOh, Fletch. I do hope thereās an extra bonus for me. Itās not anybody who can fool Jigson.ā
Devin stepped into the elevator and dialed Mortimerās number.
āPhilip?ā
āDetective!ā Devin smoothed his voice to sound like the one heād repeatedly heard on the recording of the International Invention Competition. āAbby and Andy told me you were in England, and I heard about Millieās kidnapping and rescue.ā
āYes.ā A sigh filtered through the phone as Devin stepped from the elevator and headed for the entrance doors. āIām afraid things have become more complicated than what we first thought.ā
Devin allowed his brows to crease. āAny way I could help? Iām actually in England for research.ā
āYou are?ā The clipped British voice hesitated. āYou didnāt mention that a few days ago when I was at your farm.ā
Devin bit his lip, then sighed. āI honestly forgot with everything thatās been happening.ā He waited, not wanting to seem eager to switch topics.
āJigson is staying with Rolf, so I could use some assistance.ā
Devin slipped into his car and check his rearview mirror to make sure his makeup was still intake. āWhere should I meet you?ā
…and I’m honestly wondering how this story is going to wrap up:)
It’s going to wrap up? *is trying to sound innocent*
Well, stories have to wrap up at some point… XD
Aaaaaahhhhhhhh! The suspense! I can’t bear it! *is feeling dizzy and is about to fall on the keyboard* *thunk*
hgkdfgjfgndksjgnfjkdhfdjghkjghdjgdisgbdfujgsk
I’m actually really curious if you actually did that to get the gibberish. XD
Yup!
So, so, so, so awesome! Great Job Kenleaf! I wasn’t having any ideas about it so I’m glad you did it.
I just had a horrible thought. If Devin has Phil’s phone……
I’m afraid to ask………………is Phil alright? *cringes*
“It’s not anybody who can fool Jigson.” But was Jigson fooled?
There are ways to hack phones, right? So it doesnāt necessarily mean something happened to Phil. Though, considering how desperate these guys are, you never know. Itās up to whoever writes next.
Once again, you are correct. *evil laugh*
*goes back to Word to work on it*
Oh, and is Rolf in the hospital still, or not?
Rolf is still in the hospital.
Come to think of it, we can’t seem to keep characters /out/ of the hospital! In your other fanfic (Shari), Heather, Mortimer is in the hospital. And, in someone else’s (can’t remember. It may have been multiple people’s), Jigson ended up in the hospital. And, in one of my other ones, Rolf ended up in the hospital.
For some reason I like to torture my characters. Also, for some reason my favorite parts of books or movies is right when a character gets shot or dies. *Starts crying while remembering sad parts of books and movies*
Haha!!! *totally understands*
Oh boy, they’re in trouble now!
So good! But was Jigson really fooled?
I guess you could write the next one so we find out:)
I wish! But I thing this plot has gotten much too complicated for me to try and write š I love reading stuff like that but writing is a completely different story!
If I have a burst in inspiration some time though, and I can make it work, I’ll try…
SPOILER!!!! Jigson wasn’t fooled!
*throws confetti* *can’t wait for Heather to post the next part*
I just did!
OOh!! Intriguing!!
There are ways to hack phones, right? So it doesn’t necessarily mean something happened to Phil. Though, considering how desperate these guys are, you never know. It’s up to whoever writes next.
(Yeah, my image changed)

(Yeah, my image changed)
Wow, don’t know why this posted so many times. XD
That’s happened to me before too!
Here we are! I hope you enjoy!
Jigson got into his car and called Mr. Baker, āHello Charles, listen I need to know is Phil at home? What? He didnāt come home last night? Charles, donāt pay attention to any morse code from him. I donāt know, all I know is that Phil isnāt safe, and heās probably in England. Alright, goodbye Charles.ā He drove around the back before he left, and there were at least a dozen men lurking around. Which meant that He was correct in his assumption. āPhilā wasnāt really Phil, but he had had Philās watch on his wrist. That meant that Phil had been robbed, or theyād taken him. Most likely the latter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cameron and Garth sat on the floor, waiting for āthem.ā Cameron spoke, āI hope Father is alright. The man said they would be coming for us within the hour. But it feels much longer than that. I just wish we could do something, instead of sitting here only being able to wait and twiddle our thumbs.ā
Garth lifted his head and opened his eyes, āYou could be using the most powerful weapon you could ever have. Prayer.ā Cameron stared at his brother in surprise and opened his mouth to say something, but was silenced by Garth holding up his hand. āListen, someoneās coming.ā
Before they could get ready, the door opened and Fletch walked in. āDid you have a nice nap?ā He was met with silence. āWell, Iāve brought you some companions.ā He walked out, and two men were shoved into the room, the door slammed shut behind them. Garth and Cameron quickly walked to them, but they were both unconscious. Garth gasped, āItās Phil, but this one is also Phil. That means that one of them must be Rolf.ā
Cameron smiled, āWell, we can easily find out by waking them up and asking them.ā He pulled the packet of smelling salts out of his pocket and held it under the nose of the man closer to him.
The man coughed and grimaced, āIf Iād known smelling salts were that bad, I would never have given it to you.ā Cameron handed the packet to Garth, so that he could wake up the other one, then he helped his man stand. Garthās man woke with a sneeze, and Garth got it right in the face.
Garth introduced Cameron to Phil, then asked why they were there. Phil decided to tell them what had happened to him, āFor some reason I felt like I should take the scenic route home. Along the way, I saw a car on the side of the road. I stopped to see if I could help. I got out of my car, and walked toward the other car. The last thing that I remember is hearing a noise behind me, turning, then everything was black. I woke twice, the first time I think I was in an airplane. The second time, we had arrived somewhere, I donāt know where. I remember looking up, and thinking I saw Rolf. Without thinking I called out to him, then somebody hit the back of my head.ā
The other man spoke up, āThat was Fletch. For some reason he takes especial joy in hitting people.ā Said whilst rubbing the back of his head. āI suppose youāre waiting for me to introduce myself. My name is Karl Klaus. I will only tell you this, for now. My father was the brother to Herr Klaus, I attended the Glen until my father died. I have been fighting my uncle ever since. Why would I be fighting my uncle you might ask? Iāll tell you. He murdered my father, because he was going to tell the police the my Uncle was behind the string of jewelry thefts happening in the area. You might think that because heās my uncle I would just, let it go. Noch nie! Er hat meinen Vater getƶtet und ich werde mich rƤchen.ā
Garth and Cameron stared at Karl in confusion, while Phil looked thoughtful. A few minutes passed before Phil wryly spoke, āOh, great. Now I have another double.ā Garth chuckled. Phil looked like he was about to say something, but then he tilted his head as if he was listening to something. After a few minutes, he reached for the side of his neck and started tapping. Garth looked concerned, āPhil, are you alright?ā
Phil continued tapping the side of his neck while he spoke, āIām fine. Father is contacting me, my watch was taken when I was kidnapped. This is a secure line, only Father has a device to connect to mine.ā Garth looked even more confused.
āBut, where is it?ā
Phil ceased tapping, and looked up with a smile. āJust under the skin on the side of my neck. All I have to do is tap where the button is, and Father will receive my message within minutes. Iāve told him that Iām a prisoner, and that Iām with Garth, and two new friends.ā
That ended up being a lot longer than I’d planned. I would type something and then a new idea would pop up in my mind. XD
For those of you who are wondering what it is that Karl says, here is the english translation. “Never! He killed my father and I will have revenge.”
*theme mind of this writer is turning* *Karl just became a foil character with Cameron in regard to both of them not wanting to forgive* *grins* This could be really fun.
Karl dissappeared to figure out his father’s death and because he knew The Glen was bad! *loves new character* *just loves germans*
That was FANTASTIC!!!!
Hehe… No, Phil. You have three doubles.
*silently yells* *is trying to figure what you mean* Are you taking the next? *really hopes for a positive answer*
If no one else wants it, I can:)
(Three doubles meaning Rolf, Karl, and Devin)
There are so many angles to write from though. *is trying really hard to decide*
Oh. But Devin had to use make up so technically he’s not his double, right?
I had a really good idea last night. So, I think that I will take the next one. If y’all are okay with it?
Go ahead:) I don’t have time to at the moment.
Thanks! *tries to estimate how long it will be* *finishes estimation* It’s probably going to be a pretty long part, or in pieces. *hurries back to work on it*
Woah! Love it! “Oh, great. Now I have another double.ā
OOH!!! So terribly awesome!!!
I felt like I needed to explain a little.
Phil leaned against the wall while he spoke, āFather decided that we needed secure devices in case our other ones got stolen from us. The Detective gave us the contact information for a doctor that he trusted. We decided that we should test it before installing them in the rest of the family. We were supposed to test when I got home last night. But as you can see, that didnāt happen. So, what just happened was the first test.ā
Garth, Cameron, and Karl all stared at him in amazement. Karl spoke, āSo, you have a Morse-Code device in your neck? And you can talk to your Father back in the U.S.?ā Phil nodded. āIncredible.ā
I just looked at the link, and we have 20 PAGES OF COMMENTS!
And we just broke into 41 PAGES OF A WORD DOCUMENT with Cameron!!!
(Times New Roman, 12 point font, space after each paragraph:)
That is so crazy!!!!
Hehe. It depends on the next writer.
Wow that is so crazy!!!!!
Wow, so does this device have tracking capabilities too, or is it simply Morse code?
This is awesome!!
WARNING! There will be a huge plot twist.
First piece! Several more to come. (This is what happens when you have a sink full of dishes and an imagination)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Karl stood up, āDid you feel something?ā
Phil looked up in surprise, āYou felt that? Father is just checking in with me. Maybe itās because you were sitting next to me. Wait.ā He listened to the device for a minute, then exclaimed, āOh no!ā
Garth and Cameron were instantly on their feet. Garth spoke first, āWhatās wrong?ā
Phil finished sending a response to his Father, āFather says that the Detective is missing. And his tracker isnāt emitting any signal.ā
Cameron sighed, āI guess that means that we can expect his company soon.ā They all suddenly became alert as sounds filtered through the door. Earlier Garth and Cameron had told Phil about the tasers that Karl had given them, and they had come up with a plan. They all got in their positions and waited.
A couple of minutes passed before the door started to open, once the door was open all the way, it became clear that there was just one man. Phil and Karl jumped him, and wrestled him to the ground. āGet off me, you fools!ā
Garth and Cameron hurriedly pulled them off of the man, it was their father. āDad! What are you doing here?ā
Phil stood with a puzzled look on his face, āDid you both just say dad at the same time? This is Detective Clement Gray.ā
Garth smiled a small smile, āYes. Phil, I didnāt fully introduce you to Cameron. He is my elder brother by three years. And this is our Father.ā
Clement spoke, āWe canāt waste any time. It wonāt be long before they discover that the guards are down. We have to go.ā
They hurried down the hall, which led into a large room. Phil looked around, āWhere are we?ā
Karl answered, āWeāre in a warehouse outside of London.ā
The warehouse soon erupted in noise as guards rushed into the room and down adjoining hallways. Garth started to look worried. Soon their position was surrounded by guards. Fletch and Bane walked in and walked to ten feet away from where they were hiding. āCome out. We know youāre there.ā
Garth, Cameron, Clement, Phil, and Karl all stood with their hands in the air. Fletch smiled, āI was expecting a little more resistance.ā
Karl smiled back, āWell, unlike you, weāre smart. We know when the stakes are against us.ā
Fletch smiled, āCome on Clement.ā Clement put his hands down and walked over to stand by Fletch and Bane.
Garth looked up, āWhat? Dad? Youāre with them?ā
Clement looked at Garth, āSon, thereās still a chance for you. For you to join us.ā
Garth looked down, āNever.ā
Fletch looked around, āWell I donāt know about the rest of you, but Iām getting rather bored of this conversation. Guards, take these three back to their cell. Bring the american to the room.ā
Garth looked up just as a guard brought the butt of his rifle down on Philās neck. Phil dropped like a sack. The guards quickly dragged him away, down another corridor. āWhat are you going to do to him?ā Fletch just looked at them coldly for a minute, then followed the guards with Phil down the hall. Clement and Bane followed him. The guards escorted them back to their cell.
OH MY STARS!!! THIS IS SO GOOD!!!
Part two!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Karl sat next to Phil, and every now and then checked on him. Garth stood by the door waiting for them to bring Cameron back. Karl looked up as Phil moaned, āGarth! Heās awake.ā
Garth hurried over and kneeled next to him, āPhil, are you alright? How do you feel?ā
Phil groaned, āMy neck really hurts. Andā¦Wait, whereās Cameron?ā
Garth sighed, āI donāt know. After they took you, they escorted us back to this room. Soon after, they came and took Cameron away.ā
Karl examined Phil, āI donāt have much medical training, so donāt sue me if Iām wrong. It doesnāt look like you have any broken bones, though it does look like you took a beating. They told us not to remove the bandages on your neck, but I just wanted to see what was there. Once I was done, I did my best to replace them.ā
Phil winced, āThey were trying to get me to tell them where Jigson might go to hide. Only thing is, I have no clue.ā He sat still for a few minutes, then looked at Karl. āDid you say there are bandages on my neck?ā Karl nodded. āWhich side?ā Karl pointed to the right side of his neck. Phil groaned, āWhat did you see underneath the bandages?ā
Karl frowned, āStitches. Why?ā
Phil sighed, āSomehow they found out about my device, and removed it. That explains why it hurts so much, and why I feel so tired.ā
Garth was about to say something when the door opened, and a guard appeared in the door way. āCome. My leader wishes to see you. All of you.ā
Garth and Karl helped Phil stand, then he leaned on them to walk down the hall. They entered the large room, and in the middle was a round table. Fletch and Clement were sitting at it. The guard told them to sit down. Garth and Karl helped Phil sit down, then sat down on either side of him.
Fletch looked at Phil and held up something small. It was the morse code device. Fletch spoke, āHow are you feeling Phil? Your neck doesnāt hurt too much I hope.ā
Phil, with some effort, replied, āIt hurts a good deal. You didnāt seem so concerned about whether or not it hurt when you interrogated me.ā
Fletch laughed, āYou are very clever. Iām glad it doesnāt hurt too much.ā
Phil sighed, āHow did you find out about it?ā
Fletch smiled, āYou will find out in good time.ā
Garth couldnāt stand it any longer. He looked at his father, āWhere is Cameron?ā Silence met him. āWhere is my brother?!ā
Fletch looked at Clement, who nodded. āPhil, you asked how we knew about the device in your neck. Garth, you want to know where your brother is. Both questions can be answered simultaneously. Cameron, you can come out now.ā Phil, Karl, and Garth all looked to the corridor that Fletch spoke towards. Slowly emerging from the hallway wasā¦ā¦Cameron. He moved forward and sat next to his father, looking down the while time.
Garth was speechless. Phil cleared his throat, āHow long has he been on your side?ā
Clement smiled, āOh weāve both been on their side from before the beginning. Everything was carefully planned out, from your chance meeting with Cameron, Phil. All the way to him getting caught.ā The only thing we didnāt count on, was Klaus. Both of them.ā
Karl looked up, āMy cousin was here?ā
āYes, now we know why, you were working together. But we caught him before he could contact you.ā
Garth looked up at Cameron with tears in his eyes, āHow could you?ā
Cameron looked at his brother with a sad look on his face, āIām sorry brother. Iām also sorry you wonāt join us.ā
Garth tried to blink back the tears, not succeeding. Fletch ordered the guard to take them back to their cell. Garth and Karl helped Phil back to their āsuite.ā
I have another part that i’m working on.
AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!! What?! Just?! Happened?!
*weeps*
*joins Kenleaf in uncontrollable sobs* What even was that?
Good job, BTW, I did NOT see that coming! (soooooo good, I love plot twists!)
NOOOO! *is still trying to process what just happened* *is not succeeding*
To quote the narration of my current MC, “And so it happened. Between the falling of one dusk and the rising of the next dawn, my life had shattered in a thousand directions. Everything I knew. Everything I loved.”
…yeah, I’m overreacting now. XD. It’s going to take a while though to collect all the blown apart pieces of my brain.
Kenleaf, that already sounds good!
Just wait till you see what I have next! *uncontrollable evil laughter*
Once again, this is what happens when you have a sink full of dishes and an imagination. (Before I ever saw this blog post, I thought that I stunk as a writer. But y’all are so encouraging, and y’all helped a lot. Thank You) š
(Yes, Heather, you are really good!! Keep it up!!)
*reaches for a box of tissues* I’m glad our tears have resulted in some good.
…
XD
OH MY STARS!!! I can’t believe how good this is!
Part Three! I have another one after this. (WARNING! Shari spoiler ahead!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mortimer and Jigson stood in front of the chair that Devin was tied to. Mortimer spoke again, āFor the last time where is Phil and what is this map?!ā
Devin smiled, āPhilip is with your other friends. As for that map, youāll have to figure that out for yourself.ā
āWhen you say āyour other friends,ā you mean Garth and Cameron, donāt you?ā Jigson said. Devin slowly nodded. Jigson and Mortimer walked out of the room into the hall.
Mortimer looked through the one-way mirror at Devin, who was staring at it. āDo you think heās telling the truth about Phil?ā
Jigson frowned, āPossibly. I hope Phil is alright. Iām going to see how Rolf feels.ā After waiting a few hours, Jigson had gone back to the hospital and gotten Rolf. He had found him looking at a map. Rolf said that it was on the bedside table when he woke up. They had asked for his room to be guarded for his safety, so there were cameras in his room. Once they checked the cameras, they knew that Devin had put it there.
Jigson entered Rolfās room and was surprised to see him sitting in a chair reading. āWell, youāre obviously feeling better.ā
Rolf looked up from his book, āHallo. Ja, Iām feeling a lot better. Do I look any better?ā
Jigson shook his head, āNo. Youād probably win best zombie award for Halloween.ā
Rolf laugh, then looked down, āDo you know anything about Phil yet?ā
Jigson sighed, āI was worried you were going to ask that. No. No we donāt know anything about Phil yet.ā
Rolf stood up, āWell, I guess Iāll just keep praying.ā
Jigson nodded and left the room. Mortimer walked past as Jigson came out of Rolfās room and he was limping. Jigson followed him, āMortimer are you alright?ā
Mortimer jumped, āOh, itās you. Yeah Iām fine. My leg is acting up on me.ā
Jigson stopped, āMortimer, I know that when your leg acts up all you can think about is Chris.ā Mortimer looked down. āListen to me. It wasnāt your fault.ā
Mortimer turned and looked at Jigson, revealing a tear-stained face. āIf Iād come sooner he wouldnāt have died. But because I had a broken leg, I didnāt get out of the hospital in time.ā
Jigson looked up then at Mortimer, āListen, it wasnāt your fault. Trust me, I know about feeling guilty about someone dying. Come on, we need to gā¦ā¦whereās your watch Mortimer?ā
Mortimer looked down at his wrist, the watch was gone. āI donāt know. Maybe I dropped it somewhere.ā
Jigsonās eyebrows creased, āI know you. You wouldnāt be so careless.ā
Mortimer frowned, āWell, the only other thing that could have happened is, I could have forgotten to put it on this morning.ā His face turned hard. āUnless..ā He turned and walked back down the hall to Devinās room. He opened the door and entered, with Jigson close behind. Devin was still in the same chair as he was when they left.
Devin smiled upon seeing them, āBack so soon?ā
Mortimer looked him straight in the eye, āWhat did you do with my watch?ā
Devin laughed, āOh, that. Itās about time you realized it was gone. I had removed it from your person and destroyed it. A couple more minutes and you would have been on your way to be with Philip.ā He looked in Jigsonās direction. āBut then he had to show up, and ruin everything.ā
Wow, Devin’s light demeanor gives me the chills. It makes me think he’s got something bad up his sleeve. Great job, Heather!
R.I.P.__________________ (Hint: It’s a main character of this fan-fiction.) *evil smile*
*chokes* What?!
Wait. More death? *doesn’t think she can handle much more*
Thank You!
You killed Chris though!!! *weeps* *doesn’t think I’ll have any more tears available to shed if Heather kills another character*
*is weeping over the computer* *fizz*
That was the computer getting wet, and powering down. š
What?! *blinks several times* No, not Chris! *weeps quietly* (very good, poor Rolf XD)
WOW!!!! I CAN’T STOP READING!!
My last part of a very long part. *was crying while typing*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cameron sat on the side of his bed, thinking. I canāt believe what Iāve done! It was so good to be with Garth again. But then Dad had to go and turn it all around. All that faking. Heād been on the verge of telling Garth several times, but had stopped himself just in time. Now he was struggling more than ever. He had to help them! He would. His mind made up, he exited his room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Phil and Karl sat talking in low tones, Garth had fallen asleep a few hours ago. They both stood up when some one knocked on the door. Phil and Karl looked at each other, and nodded. Karl got ready beside the door, while Phil stood behind it ready to yank it open. āWho is it?ā
āItās Cameron. Listen, I know that Iām probably the last person that you want to see. Please, let me come in.ā
Phil quickly woke Garth, and told him who was at the door. Garth said for Cameron to come in. As Cameron started to push the door open, Phil yanked it open. Karl grabbed Cameron in a headlock and pulled him in. Phil quickly closed the door.
Garth eyed his brother, āWhat do you want?ā
Cameron looked down āI know you canāt trust me right now, but will this help you trust me.ā He held something up.
Phil grabbed it, and examined it. āYes. This is it. The device. Why did you bring it to us?ā
Cameron smiled, āYou canāt very well let them keep it when you get out of here. Iām going to help you escape.ā
Phil, Garth, and Karl all looked at each other, then at Cameron. Phil spoke, āWill you come with us?ā
Cameron looked down, āI donāt know. But I will be able to get you to a truck, which you will be able to use to get out of here.ā
They looked at each other again, and then Garth spoke. āYou have to come with us. That is how we will know that we can trust you.ā
Cameron nodded, āAlright. I will come with you. But we need to hurry.ā
They gathered what things they had and needed, and left. Cameron led them down a hallway that they hadnāt noticed before. It led outside of the building where a truck was. Phil was in the driver seat trying to start it, Karl and Garth were in the back, and Cameron was about to climb in when a voice rang out behind them.
āCameron! What are you doing?ā
It was Clement. Cameron turned to face his father, and spoke. āCome with us Dad. Thereās still a chance for you to change.ā
Clement smirked, āChange? I already have changed. For the better!ā He pulled a gun out of a shoulder holster and pointed it at the tires of the truck. āIf you donāt stop, I will be forced to shoot.ā
Cameron glanced at Phil, who gave a thumbs up. That meant that he was ready to turn on the truck at a moments notice. Cameron looked back at his father, āNever! Phil go!ā
Phil gunned the engine and Cameron turned and jumped into the back of the truck. Three shots rang out behind them, but they were already too far away. He missed.
Cameron stood against the wall of the truck, looking pale. Garth spoke, āIām glad he missed. I didnāt know that Dad was such a bad aim.ā
Cameron looked up, panting. āHe didnāt miss.ā He collapsed onto the floor of the truck, and started coughing up blood.
Karl rushed to him, rolled him over. Two of the shots had hit their mark. Karl hurried to try and stop the bleeding. Garth held up his brothers head, lest he black out.
Cameron looked up at Garth, āIām sorry. Iāve been sorry, ever since the day you went missing.ā
Garth shook his head, āNo. No, youāre going to be alright.ā
Cameron shook his head, āDad knew right where to hit me. Iām sorry. I love yoā¦ā¦ā Cameronās hand dropped from Garthās. Karl quickly checked his pulse, then shook his head.
Garth stared at his brother in shock, āNo. No! Cameron come back, please come back.ā
Karl took Garthās hand, āHeās gone, Garth. Thereās nothing we can do.ā
Phil, unaware of what was going on in the back of the truck, spoke. āFather gave me the coordinates that Jigson sent to him, we should be there in about thirty minutes.ā
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mortimer walked cautiously to the front door, and looked through the peephole. He yanked the door open, āPhil! Where are Garth and Cameron, and that other young man that your father told us about?ā
Phil sighed, āTheyāre coming.ā
Mortimer frowned, āOh. Good.ā Then Mortimer noticed the blood on Philās arm. āPhil! Youāve been hit!ā
Phil shook his head, āIām alright. Itās Cameron who was hit bad.ā
Garth and Karl appeared carrying Cameronās body between them. Mortimer gasped, āIāll call a doctor right away!ā
Garth shook his head, āIt wonāt do any good. Heās gone.ā
Mortimer let them in, and directed them underground. He showed them to a room where they could place Cameronās body. A couple of minutes later Phil collapsed from loss of blood. Mortimer quickly called a doctor, and they put him in the room next to Rolfās. Karl asked where Rolf was and was shown to his room.
Karl entered the room, and Rolf looked up. āPhil! Youāre alright.ā Rolf stood and hugged him.
Karl stood awkwardly, āIām not Phil. Es ist lange her. Etwa sechs oder sieben Jahre.ā
Rolf stood back and gasped, āKarl? Karl bist du wirklich?ā
Karl nodded, āJa, Ich habe dir viel zu sagen.ā
Rolf walked forward, āAber wo ist Phil?ā
Karl jerked his head to the right, āIm nƤchsten Raum vorbei.ā
Rolf started to go out the door, but he stopped and turned to Karl. āDanke dir Karl.ā
Rolf exited his room just as the doctor came out of Philās room. Mortimer, and Jigson were both waiting outside. The doctor spoke, āPhil will be alright. He just needs rest. He is asleep now.ā
Karl and Rolf’s conversation in english.
Karl stood awkwardly, āIām not Phil. It’s been a long time. About six or seven years.”
Rolf stood back and gasped, “Karl? Karl is it really you?”
Karl nodded, “Yes. I have a lot to tell you.”
Rolf walked forward, “But, where is Phil?”
Karl jerked his head to the right, “In the next room over.”
Rolf started to go out the door, but he stopped and turned to Karl. “Thank you, Karl.”
*breaks down in uncontrollable sobs* NOOOO!
*doesn’t know if I’ll recover*
Yes Kenleaf, same š
My laptop might not recover! I was typing furiously, mix that with tears dripping onto it………
I think I’m taking a little break to go finish Shari. š
OH MY GOODNESS!! THIS IS SO TERRIBLY SAD AND WONDERFUL!!!
*through tears* NOOOOO! Why?! How can something be so bad and yet so good at the same time?!
My brain is still in explode fragments… *isn’t sure what to write*
I’m just sad Cameron died… š¢As far as we know, he never did make up with Mortimer.
Agreed. š¦
Sorry y’all! But………maybe……. possibly………..he’s not dead?
It is a little saddening. XD!!
Oh, I wish it were true! But Garth, Karl, and Phil all witnessed it happen, he was no longer breathing, and he had no pulse… š*is frantically trying to find a solution* There has to be a way!
Well, maybe he was someone else in disguise or something…
Is everyone okay if I take the next one? I have an idea. (And yes, it has to do with Cameron not being dead.)
…this feels like the all-to-familiar cliche which revolves around dead characters.
#LetDeadCharactersLie (Maybe Cameron wrote a letter or something before he broke Garth, Phil, and Karl out, just in case something happened.)
Sadly I have to agree with Kenleaf….
I definitely see your point…….. also my thing would have made Clement way more evil.
Heather please go ahead! I’m *not* a fan of the kill-the-main-character cliche (no offense, Kenleaf). I did however find a completely logical and possible medical way to keep Cameron alive. It’s called Lazarus Syndrome, you should look it up š
OH MY STARS, JUBILEE!! THANKS FOR HELPING MY BOOK!!!
With the lazuras syndrome.
I didn’t know killing the main character was a cliche… XD. I thought it was just “kill” the main character, and then, after the audience has wept and mourned their death, tell them the character actually survived.
Sorry. Writer opinions. XD.
Looking forward to it, Heather!
Oh, you meant the *fake* death cliche…XD
I know Parker, isn’t it awesome!?
YES, JUBILEE!
are y’all sure that one of you doesn’t want to take the next one?
Really, Heather, you take it:) I’ve loved what you’ve written so far! XD. If I wrote it, Cameron would still be dead, but would have written a note to Mortimer (which he was going to give to Garth, but then Garth had insisted he escape with them). And I don’t think people want him dead, so… š
But you did it well!
Some people are still hanging around the old place. Just can’t get away from it. š
XD. We’ve got to pass the time /somehow/ while we wait for BFA #8. XD.
LOL I’m working on ‘Shari’ currently, then I will hopefully be able to do the next part of ‘Cameron’.
Looking forward to it!!!
Jubilee and Heather, I’m looking back at my comments and am realizing the wording I used could have been taken offensively. Just want to let you know it wasn’t my intention. Unfortunately, joking and sarcasm don’t carry well through written word:)
Kenleaf, I don’t think it came across anyway, but it could have maybe to the others. š
I totally understand the coming across as offensive in words though.
I totally understand. I did’t take anything offensively š In fact, I’m more worried I came across that way!
Btw, I absolutely love the way you handle things on here. You’re always so kind and supportive, and when there’s been an argument or misunderstanding, you always manage to resolve things in a way that doesn’t make anyone feel misunderstood. I just want to say thank you! ā¤ļø
Nope, you were totally fine!
Thanks Kenleaf! It did not come across as offensive in any way!!! My family is full of jokesters and we are sarcastic alot.
198 comments until 5,000!
OH MY LIVIN’ STARS!!! That’s crazy!!
I know! That is so crazy! Several times over the last couple thousand we decided to stop………..XD
Yeah, it’s crazy! I’ve gotten so many emails saying there are more comments even though I stopped commenting a while ago. Though I have enjoyed following your fan-fiction!
I’m glad your still following, Kaylee!! š
Next part of ‘Shari’! One more coming.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mortimer opened his eyes and looked at Phil, who had been staying at the hospital while Mortimer was there. He was asleep. Mortimer sighed, how Phil was able to sleep in that chair heād never know. It had almost been a week since the accident and Mortimer was getting out of the hospital in a couple of days. Mortimer reached for his crutches and stood. He walked over to the window, there was a tiny bit of light visible on the horizon. Good, that meant that morning was only a few hours away. Chris had been visiting constantly in the last week, and they had begun to reforge their bond. Mortimer smiled, the sooner he went to sleep the sooner it would be tomorrow. And then school would be out sooner. Once he was back in bed, he fell asleep almost instantly.
A few hours later Phil woke and was pleased to see that the Detective was sleeping. He stretched and then went down to the cafeteria for some brekkers. On the way back up to the Detectiveās room, his phone rang. He balanced the tray of food on one hand, and answered his phone with the other. It was Lizzie. āHello?ā
Lizzie spoke quickly, with a sense of panic in her voice. āPhil, itās Chris. Heās been kidnapped. He was on the bus on his way to school, when some men in a car pulled in front of the bus, forcing the driver to stop. They forced their way onto the bus, grabbed Chris, and left.ā
Phil blinked, āHe was probably kidnapped to get to the Detective. Hey Lizzie, can I call you back in a couple of minutes? Alright, goodbye.ā He reached the floor that the Detectiveās room was on, and as he approached it, a man emerged, and ran the other direction. Phil shouted after him, then ran into the room. The Detective was sitting up in his bed holding a pistol. He lowered it when he saw Phil.
āPhil. Did you see him?ā
Phil nodded, āHe got away.ā
Mortimer got out of bed, āWell he didnāt exactly do anything wrong. I woke to see him leaning over me. I pulled my gun out from under my pillow, and told him to back up. He turned and ran. I think he dropped something on his way out.ā
Before Phil could stop him, Mortimer had bent down and picked a piece of paper up from the floor. He read it, then looked up at Phil. He handed it to Phil. Phil quickly read it. It read, āIf you want to see Chris alive again, come to where we had our last stand.ā It was signed āYour ever loving cuz.ā
Phil looked up, āYou have a cousin too?ā
Mortimer sighed, āNo, I donāt. He just always called me cuz. It got on my nerves and he knew it. I caught him around the same time Chris was born. He was sentenced to thirty years, and it appears he has escaped prison. He probably fancies revenge.ā
Phil frowned, āYou donāt sound very concerned about Chris.ā
Mortimer smiled, āThough he may be a criminal, Joe isnāt a killer. Chris should be fine.ā After a moment Mortimer looked at Phil, āPhil, can you check and see when the next flight to Omaha, Nebraska is?ā
Phil was able to book flights that left the next day. Once they arrived in Omaha they went to the FBI office, where they were briefed on what was going on. They were told that Mortimer would go to the meeting place tomorrow.
I hope y’all don’t hate me.
My sister hates me right now. XD
I think that Mortimer is worried about Chris, he just isn’t showing it.
I don’t hate you!! XD!
*brushes away a stray tear* Based on Cameron, I already know what happens! *breaks down in sobs*
*copies Phil’s frown* …though I feel Mortimer would be a little more anxious about his son, even if he doesn’t think this guy is a killer.
Kenleaf I’m just wondering, what time-zone are you in?
EST
Me too! š
I’m in Central.
I’m on MT š
Oh, this is so good!!! Eek!
So good Heater, even though it makes me sad!
P. S. Sorry I disappeared, I’ve been traveling the last two weeks š
1.Andy & Jigson
2.Abby & Millie
3.Dainn
4.Iceland intrigue, or Hunting in the highlands
5.maybe Phil
Great answers!!
For those of you who liked ‘Beyond The Mask’, I HIGHLY recommend ‘The Redemption of Henry Myers’. It is older than ‘Beyond The Mask’, and has some actors from other christian movies. It is a western, and is an amazing movie.
Are these stories going to continue, y’all?
You could write a scene. XD
XD! I would…but I’m working now, so I don’t hardly have time to write my own books.
Hey Parker, just wondering, did you get my email?
I don’t think Parker has been on internet recently . . . He hasn’t had a blog post in a while and I know his mom has been having them cutback on the time they spend on devices. ~ Kaylee
Okay, thanks so much for letting me know! Yeah, I noticed he hasn’t posted on his blog.
I had an idea, but my family has really busy lately
I see! I understand that!
Heather, were you going to write the next Cameron scene (or another Shari)? *is eagerly waiting*
My family volunteers at Higher Ground Ministry Mission in Kentucky, and we just got back from a month long trip. I’m gonna try to finish ‘Shari’ soon………. Here’s the link for the ministry, in case anybody’s curious: http://hgmmission.org/
No problem:) Looks like an amazing ministry!!!
Okay, I needed a little bit of closure on Cameron’s death. I was going to let someone else write it, but time’s elapsed since the last post and life does happen:)
———-
Garth sank to the floor, his brain shattered, his heart torn. Dead. The word swept through his mind. My brother is dead. Sobs racked his body, and he let them flow freely.
Dead.
āGarth?ā
Not bothering to wipe away the tears pouring down his cheeks, Garth glanced up. Jigson hesitated at the door.
Garth stared numbly at him, unsure if those were tears glistening on Jigsonās cheeks or the ones obscuring his own vision. āYes?ā
Jigson held out an envelope. āI found this in the back of the truck whereāā His voice broke.
Garth continued to stare, his mind not processing. āWhat?ā
āItāsā¦Cameronās handwriting,ā Jigson managed.
The name āCameronā cleared a fraction of Garthās mind to think.
āItās addressed to you.ā
Garth shoved upward, struggling to gain his feet. A headache clamped his forehead, and he staggered for support against the wall. He sniffled. Congestion. Slowly, he extended his hand and accepted the letter, then sank against the wall again after Jigson left. Garth slid his forefinger beneath the lip and slit the envelope open. A single sheet of paper. He opened it, Cameronās flowing handwriting captured perfectly with blue ink.
Garth,
Iām sorry ā even more so if you all donāt make it out. It wasnāt supposed to be like this, maybe even end like this. Dad apparently has a few more twists and turns than either of us thought, though heās still redeemable ā at least, I hope so, believe so. Thatās why I did what I did. Just like Paul in the Bible, I guess. He acted like a Jew or Gentile depending on who he was with so he could reach them, right? Maybe Iām thinking of something else ā or maybe I did it wrong. I needed to stay.
Garth choked, remembering how they had forced Cameron to come. Was it their fault? His fault for his brotherās death?
Whatever happens, Iām sorry I hurt you, sorry I hurt other people. Iāll sort this out someway or another. I wonāt let the RDC go through with this. The Last Stand wonāt happen.
Tell Mortimer Iām sorry, that I
The next words started a new paragraph, fresh with an indentation.
I forgive him. This grudge has long tore me apart, but I canāt blame him for everything that happened. Parts, maybe, but I forgive him. Tell him thank you for everything: for watching out for me, teaching me, getting on my nerves simply because doing so would result in my best. I admire him. He was a father when I didnāt have one ā a great father.
Iāll see you soon, Garth. If I make it out, weāll catch up over coffee or something, talk things out like we used to beforeā¦everything. You decide the place. You forced me to decide enough when we were younger.
Like anytime before: Donāt die. Stay safe.
And God bless.
-Cam
Waaaaahhhhhhhh!!! Why you make me cry like baby? I am amazed that computer still work after all that wet! Really good Kenleaf! I had had an idea, but it just wasn’t playing out.
Sorry? Maybe? I mean, it was /supposed/ to be emotional, so I’m not too sorry that it achieved that effect. *winks*
They still have to take down the RDC, if you’re up for writing more:)
Kenleaf! That is, sooooooo good! Thanks for wrapping it up a bit š
It’s sad that Cam had to do. I quite liked him! And since I named him, well, yeah. XD
Someday when you get a book published, share it on here, I need to read it š
XD. Yeah, I suppose you have a good reason to have liked him. XD. Are you up for writing the next scene?
Wow, totally made my day. I don’t have any books that close to completion, but am working on launching a blog – sometime soon hopefully. I’ll let you know when;)
š well, I’ll give it some thought, though I’m not sure what could come next.
Oh, good for you! Yeah, please let me know. I definitely will check it out.
fromthenotebook.home.blog
Jigson leaned with his palms on the table. āWe still need to figure out how to deal with this RDC threat. Sooner or later, that map is going to fall into a government officialās hands ā and they will demand action.ā
āCam believed these bombs are only the RDCās plan to eliminate agents.ā Garth ran a hand through his hair with a sigh, then propped his elbows on the table. āIt was a hypothesis though. We couldnāt find a scrap of evidence either way.ā
Garth glanced at Mortimer sitting across the table from him and waited for him to add. Mortimer stared at the table, eyes locked in one spot.
Garth frowned and turned to Jigson with a tip of his head. Jigson gave a slight nod, then lead the way from the room. Once they were out of Mortimerās earshot, Garth sagged against a doorframe. āTruth be told, Iām not thinking like I should be either, not with everything thatās happened.ā
Jigson sighed. āYou think I should contact others to help us out.ā
Garth shoved off the doorframe with a shake of his head. āIām not saying one way or another. Youāre probably the most clear headed of us all.ā He froze, then glanced at Jigson. His voice softened. āI didnāt mean it like that.ā
Jigson laid a hand on Garthās shoulder. āI know you didnāt. Now, if I was going to contact someone, did you have someone in mind?ā
āDonāt you have a contact that wasāā Garth tilted his head back against the wall. āNot in the RDC, but in a leadership position atā Did you call it āThe Glenā before?ā
āAlastair McGregor.ā
Garth nodded. āIt sounds right, but I thought you said there was a trio.ā
āCassidy Drummond and Fergus Fletcher.ā
Garth flinched, and Jigson noted it. āAre you thinking there might be a relation between Fergus and Fletch?ā
Garth expelled a breath. āIām willing to think almost anything right now.ā
———-
Garth looked up as Jigson tapped on the doorframe of his room. Jigson tossed him a thumbdrive. He caught it one-handed.
āAlastair just sent this to me. Itās a digital file entitled āThe Last Standā which he secretly copied while at the Glen. Itās encrypted and damaged, but he got a brief look at the physical copy they had on file. He said detailed some of what you and Cameron guessed, and ended with the words āShould we fall, the world will also be rid of its best fighting force.āā
Garth frowned, then flung himself from the bed. āThen we better get brainstorming. When will he and the other two arrive?ā
Anyone want to springboard? …because I’m currently out of ideas. XD
Kaitlyn says she wants to take the next one, is that good with you?
For sure!
We’re kinda busy catching up on school so it might be a while before K can get it done………
Guys, washing dishes and having an imagination is dangerous!
What if, in Iceland Intrigue, when the chair swivels around it’s not Dainn but, *inserts drumroll* Detective Mortimer Jones!!!!
I would have died.
I would have stopped reading for a few hours probably.
I would have given up on the series!
Do any of y’all have a Wattpad account? I would love to connect on there!
Hey if anyone who was blowing up this page is still checking it, I have something to tell you. I got baptized last night.
Wow congratulations!!! That is so cool, praise the Lord!
It certainly is! That night was an amazing night. There were 8 total baptisms that night. And one of them got saved that night too.
Wow praise the Lord!
Hey guys! I just thought I’d check in to see how everyone’s been doing this year? Also, BAKER BOOK 8 IS HERE!! I’m so excited.
Hey so if anyone still checks this, Iād love to chat with any of yāall. We had some great times here. Yāall were my first real internet experience and it was amazing. I keep you in my prayers.
Hello Heather. I wasn’t a part of that experience but I know a lot about it. My sister Mandalynn has told us much and I wish we still did this…… now we’re all grown up, working, busy, and married. It’s sad but exciting to think of how we have all changed so.
Yeah, that was a fun time! It’s crazy to think we’re all grown up, starting families, working jobs, and all that!
I just started reading the BFA series to my little brother and was reminded of all the good times we had on here XD XD XD
I’m a little late to the party (and I’m not sure if anyone still reads this…) but I am certainly interested in chatting with you all again!!!
I know I’m a little (a lot) late to the party…but I had this crazy thought to come back and check if anyone was still on here. I am pleasantly surprised! I had a hysterical (embarrassing?) time going through all of our old comments XD I have such fon memories of this place and I want to say you guys are awesome.
Heather, I would love to chat. I miss talking with ya’ll!
ā¤
Yeah this place was awesome! Too bad most of the fanfics never got finishedš¢ Anyone who reads this, miss yāall!
ā¤
Wow this is almost five years old. Which means I’m five years older…blegh *shakes off the weirdness* how is anyone who is still active?
Wow I can’t believe anyone comes on this post anymore! Thats crazy that its been five years! I got married and moved and had a baby in the meantime ha ha
As the biggest fan of C. R. Hedgcock, I’m still following. It has been years and years, and I’ve read the books so many more times and am still currently reading Iceland Intrigue. Though I have a full time job and all. XD!
Iceland Intrigue is probably the best out of all of them; it’s a treasure!
Yeah! Itās so cool how a ācommunityā emerged right here. Like Parker, Iāve been reading these books again and againā¦good precious memories. Kinda sad how everyone moved on with their lives, but I guess thatās just reality. It would be really great if all BFA fans can reconnect. š
Wait whatā¦five yearsā¦no way!!
Iām doing really well. College, work, and Jiu-Jitsu take up most of my time
