𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐘𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐒 𝐀𝐆𝐎, Cairo Quimby disappeared without a trace. His family has neglected to speak of him since, running the slightly strange but unassuming hotel he grew up in as if nothing ever happened. Until Cairo, a lone wanderer roaming a lost and dangerous world, has a run-in at a diner with mysterious strangers who are after his stepfather ⸻ as it turns out, Richard Quimby has been hiding something, and hiding something valuable. He's broken the viciously enforced code of In-Betweens by whatever his hotel is harboring, and against his better judgment, Cairo's loyalty takes him back. Back to his dreaded childhood home, back to the place to which he swore he'd never return. Cairo's family is nothing ordinary. Strange things happen when they want them to, and impossible is a limit that simply does not exist in their plane of being. But it's this strangeness that he's been rejecting, that he's been trying to run from all these years. Unfortunately, whether he likes it or not, he must enlist the help of siblings who resent him to unveil the secrets behind the vendetta against his stepfather and fight the forces determined to tear his family apart. Oh, and of course, he has to participate in a race for inheritance privileges ⸻ something he never even wanted. Cairo's own past has come back to haunt him, tangled with everyone else's and a million times worse. Time is ticking, and there are sins to atone for, blood to be spilled. #ONC2024 - Prompt 13 Total Word Count: 40,310 #1 in #intrigue 2/24-3/21 © Ginger Beckett 2024

[COMPLETED] "If you let me leave now, I won't tell anyone what you did sir..." I grumbled, and he smirked a little, as if it was a hilarious joke. "Like I said, you aren't leaving Caroline..." Caroline was once a perfectly happy child, she had a home, food, warmth. She had a father, a brother, and a wonderful mother... but her mom died in a crash. She and her brother had to leave their father who couldn't handle his anger and his grief. As runaways, she and her brother, Dustin, are cold, hungry, and only have each other to face the merciless cruelties of the world. Alone she was followed by a man that was helpful, and kind. But just when she thought she could trust him, he took off the mask of a normal man, and hurt her in ways unimaginable. Trapped, she was forced into waiting out her time thinking of the world, her mom, and her life. She had to do something hard, she had to make a choice. She could stay and be hurt and trapped, but fed and warm, or leave and be cold and hungry, but free...
