The receptionist behind the counter wasn’t paying attention. She; she was a young teenage girl, her feet propped up on the counter, and preoccupied with an and preoccupied with some AstroGirl magazine. Michael noticed she had an earbud tucked in and hidden behind her hair. “Excuse me,” LaNiya asked, stepping up to the counter. No […]

Copy Cats Vol. 1: Chapter 18
It was Saturday morning; the aggressive noise of the morning chaos gently roused Michael from his sleep. A firetruck blared its siren as it zoomed by his window, followed by two police cars and a strew of angry drivers. It’s only 7 AM and someone’s already set something on fire? He thought about dosing back […]

It was lunchtime. Once again, Michael found himself disappointed in his lunch tray. He shook the Styrofoam bowl filled with a suspicious-looking tomato soup. A thin layer of film was on top; beneath it, he could make out celery chunks and some certainly soggy goldfish crackers. He never really liked tomatoes anyway. Pushing the tray […]

“You want us to…what?” Michael asked. Everyone was still staring at Asante. After hearing his plan for finding Dr. Reed, Michael was sure he misheard him. Even he had to admit this idea was a bit far-fetched. He was willing to break school rules, skip classes, and even do some digging into the faculty’s personal […]

It felt strange walking down towards the tech lab again. The five of them walked in silence. Even when they finally reached the lab door, no one said anything. But as Asante attempted to turn the handle, it wouldn’t budge. “Dang it,” he said while furiously jiggling the handle, “It’s locked.” “Is this one not […]
