It was suppose to be a tropical oasis shrouded in the mist, deep in the cavern of a glacier. But my dear friend Rupert believed and was going, despite being told he was a fool. So I went with him. Now here I stand, in the middle of a glacier, staring at a lush tropical garden… Jeffery Turnbuckle gently closed the fragments of the journal. He’...1Ebone door

    There was a girl walking down the sidewalk, when a strong sense of deja vu washed over him. He never met her before in his life but he could tell you everything about her. Her name was Claire Warren and she was 22 years old. She had a good, comfortable amount of money because her father gave it to her to get her on her feet until she started making her own money. She was in L.A. because her agent got her an audition to play some lady in a chick flick movie. He never saw her before that day but he knew all her features by heart. She had long blonde hair in a high ponytail and blue eyes that see...1Ebone door
