Cat, Hissy Fits and Halloween

For my final special edition selection, I have chosen a story featuring my favorite original character, Leona Nicole of my "Sugar & Spies" series.  Her choice of Halloween costume is a bit of a problem.  The link takes you to AO3.

WRITER'S CHOICE~ LAST DAY TO POST FOR THE 7 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

                         

The scariest story I've ever written - IMO

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Title: The Ripping Good Time Affair

Author: Spikesgirl58
Rating PG-13 for graphic images and violence
Genre: Gen

When Hirum Ballswidth went on a murdering rampage before vanishing, it was news. The fact that he might now be working for THRUSH, that's news UNCLE doesn't want to hear. Waverly sends Napoleon and Illya to investigate and before long they are sucked into a crazed web of terror. Their only hope to escape are two young girls, the gift of thinking on their feet and something watching in the shadows.

"It's the end of the world as we know it" PART 1 ~ for The Writers Choice~ The 7 Days of Halloween

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Originally posted for a Halloween challenge on scrapbook, the pic was a prompt by inji. Of all my spooky fics, this one is my favoritie. Hope you like it as well. ( I love the photo!) The story was too long to do in a single post, so there's a part 2.

There was a welcoming sunrise as they’d made their way to the outskirts of what was left of the Kremlin, and Moscow.

“I can’t believe it finally happened, “ a disheveled Napoleon Solo muttered.

“Neither can I my friend, and the destruction came not from your country or mine, it came from T.H.R.U.S.H.” Illya was crouching over a campfire beside his partner, trying to warm himself.

There had been a perfectly timed apocalypse threatened in all the major cities of the world, a monumental task, one years in the making that was apparently brought to fruition by Central.

This time they had allies and had aligned themselves with every known terroristic and evil organization they could gather to their cause. They literally ganged up on the world and hit when it was least expected in a single, coordinated strike.

U.N.C.L.E. had been aware of the the potential plan, and warned the countries of the world, trying desperately to call their attention as well as garner their help. Yet many were too self-absorbed, extolling their usual rhetoric at the U.N. and remaining blissfully ignorant that the doomsday clock was ticking down. No one wanted to believe T.H.R.U.S.H. would do it….yet they did.

Napoleon and Illya had been on an assignment outside the small city of Serpukhov, roughly 99 km. south of Moscow when it happened, and acting on Illya’s instincts, they headed north to the capital to investigate instead of trying to escape into the countryside.

"It's the end of the world as we know it" PART 2 ~ for the Writer's Choice` The 7 Days of Halloween

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

link to : Part 1

Illya managed to wriggle free of its vice-like grip, (surely this thing was not human?)  and it let out a piercing shriek that was at such a decibel that it hurt the Russians ears.

                   

As he covered them with his hands, Illya ducked out of the harms way, moving much faster than the lumbering figure, who still had not turned around to come after him. Kuryakin grabbed the tool box filled with the supplies along with the bike pedals, and clambered out onto the street; searching for Napoleon, and finding his partner running towards him as he yelled, trying to warn him.

“Did you see them?” Solo called, nearly out of breath.

“Just one,” Illya said as the two came together.”

“You didn’t get bit by it did you?”

“нет_no.” Illya answered in Russian.

“Good, because if you did, you’d become one of them...the walking dead.” Solo ran his hand nervously across his face.”

“Walking dead? How do you know this?” Illya demanded.

“Reading comic books and going to Saturday afternoon matinees when I was a kid, watching Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein, and Zombies.

“That hardly qualifies you for such expertise as it is mere fantasy. Though what I saw was definitely a re-animated corpse. How it is possible for these dead to return to life?”

"Stranger than Fiction" Part 4 ( a call and response story started by Glennagirl)

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

It was late in the evening at the hospital when all rounds had been completed, and the night staff had settled into their routine. Visitors hours were over and except for the sounds of heart monitors and oxygen machines, all was quiet in the intensive care unit.

A nurse at the main desk was monitoring a new and innovative system of wireless biotelemetry that had it’s origins in the US space program. It allowed them to review data from special equipment to track a critical patient's heart rate, blood pressure, breathing as well as other vitals.

Still the sound of the equipment, beeping and humming was almost hypnotic and it was all the woman could do from nodding off.

Monster - 7 Days of Hallowe'en - 30th October (350 words)

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

Illya Kuryakin, since first discovering it, had always enjoyed Hallowe’en. He could happily get behind any holiday which involved copious amounts of candy. What really made him smile was seeing the costumes on children and adults alike. At least, it was until one of his neighbours, along with his young son, showed him his idea of a monster.

The Seven Days of Halloween : Stranded, Part 7 (Conclusion)

There was less than an hour of daylight remaining when Illya seemed to convulse in Napoleon's arms. Concerned, he stopped and knelt down to check on him.

Faded Into Gray (7 Days of Halloween)

[insaneladybug.livejournal.com]

I hope I'm doing this right. This was something I wrote last year, and I was thinking it would fit nicely into the theme of posting past Halloween/supernatural stories for the Halloween celebration here. It involves Illya mysteriously visiting Napoleon in the car, and then vanishing. And Napoleon trying to find out what's happened. I rated it K+/PG on FF.net's rating system, but I'm not quite sure how that translates into the ratings system here. It's gen, and there's not really any violence, just descriptions of violence that led up to the situation in the fic.
