Chapter 6 The Lighthouse Lights Up
Moominmama stood over by the living room window at Moominhouse, worried sick for her son and his friends. It was nearly nightfall and still no sign of them. Why were they taking so long? Maybe something had happened to them? The approaching storm on the horizon didn't ease her worrying in the slightest. Moominpapa placed a comforting hand on his wife's shoulder.
"It's going to be all right, my dear," he said, "Moomintroll is a smart Moomin; he can look after himself. I'm sure they'll be back soon." However his words were of little consolation to Moominmama. Moomintroll had never been out this late before a

Martin had unpacked his laptop and set it up on Snork's desk. They were over at the Snorks' house, the day after their eventful excursion up to the Lonely Mountain. True to Moominmama's word, Moomin's injured tail was mending nicely, the fur already starting to grow back. Soon, he'd be able to take off that embarrassing bandage, much to his relief, as he couldn't take anymore of Little My's constant teasing.
While Snorkmaiden hurried downstairs to bring them all glasses of raspberry juice, Martin powered up his laptop. The battery read just over half-full; by keeping all system functions on minimum power

The Lion King Pride of Humanity chapter 22
The Zeppelin was making its way east, back towards the Pride Lands. With only Slayn on duty at the helm, the rest of the group had turned in for the night. They were expected to reach the Pride Lands by tomorrow morning, where the upcoming battle to save the Pride from tyranny awaited them.
Simba sat alone in the chartroom, looking out at the dark desert horizon far below. Somewhere in the distance was his home, his family’s land, his soon-to-be kingdom. He couldn’t believe he was finally going back! After all this time in exile with Harry and Nala, he was going home, to fight for his kingdom – and to avenge his father. He

Inside the makeshift infirmary the Allies had set up in one of the Zeppelin’s vacant staterooms, Harry and Danny, who had some knowledge of medicine from apprenticing in his father’s pharmacy as a boy, had just finished patching up Von Beitz, lying sedated and bandaged-up on the bunk.
Luckily, they’d found plenty of medical supplies onboard, which the pirates had looted from some French hospital ship it seemed. With Ayden, the only man onboard who could read French, translating the labels of the different drugs for Harry and Danny, they’d worked through the day on Von Beitz, fighting to keep him alive.

Josh found himself tumbling to and fro in the vacuum of space. Whatever the hell had just happened, he realised the REMO and his pod had somehow become detached. The first thing he wondered was why he wasn’t already dead; putting his hands up to his face, he realised, by the sheerest luck, his visor plate had sealed itself shut before he’d been blown out. Whether it had been his own reflex action, or just lucky chance, he couldn’t tell. Not that it would do him much good now anyway.
Despite the disorienting rotation in which he was moving, he could see his orbit was decaying; at this ra

“I think I have a solution for Timmy,” said Josh. He, Justin, Mr Ages, Nicodemus and the Brisbies were gathered around Timothy’s bed, its occupant lying comatose and with high fever, slowly slipping away. Even the penicillin Josh had given him was no good. No medicine other than antibiotics could save him now, and they hadn't any. Elizabeth was sobbing beside her son’s bed, from where she hadn’t moved all night.
The royal physician and Mr Ages had explained that nothing more could be done and that it was only a matter of time now. A Rat priest had arrived, yie

March 10th 2792, Watership Down
Alan sat atop his favourite rock on the northern summit of Watership Down. A journal lay open on his lap, where he wrote down his memoirs – a daily routine he had adapted since settling down into his new life. Today was the first anniversary of his arrival into the 28th century. For the past year, he, Derek, Hotdog, Josie, and Lucy had worked hard, making rapid progress in adjusting to their new life, while watching their neighbours' own society grow with the arrival of the latest generation.
Ever since the defeat of Woundwort and Robbins, there had been a mad rush of mating and kit

"Court is adjourned!" the judge announced, bringing the trial of the century to a close. The newly promoted Chief Inspector Charles Santon, accompanied by the recently knighted Sir Cole Drake, walked out of the High Court of Justice in London. Striding through the crowd of annoying reporters desperate for another story from the two key witnesses to the hottest scandal in British criminal history, and who had become celebrities overnight, the two men got into Drake's waiting limousine and were off.
It had been a little over six months since Alan's departure; or rather his suppo

Harry and Hermione's Horcrux Hunt
Hermione woke to feel Harrys arms around her. He was sleeping peacefully, for the first time in forever. He groaned and she felt him move closer and hold her tighter. She smiled. She couldn't believe she actually liked being held by Harry. Sh thought her and Ron would be good together, but then again, they were always fighting.
"Hey" Harry whispered, pulling Hermione out of her trance. She turned torwards him.
'I guess it has always been him; but he likes Ginny...' She thought. They laid in silence. After a few minutes, Hermione got up; even though she would rather lay with Harry all day.
"I guess i should make breakfast" As she said th
