((I15 Update:

Wow. Been a long time between updates and there's so much to cover. So let's just start near the beginning.

The last year and a half have been a roller coaster ride for Brianna. Near the beginning of last year, Bri and Stephen's relationship ended in a rather publicly explosive ...

"So, what did you want to show me?" Jem ...

It was a perfect Christmas Eve; the snow had covered the house over completely, but the turkey was defrosting in the kitchen and presents had appeared under the tree. With nothing to do outside, Cornelia and her father had discovered an old phonograph and a stack of old records. In the evening, they ...

"Those kids are up to something," Brendan said, eying the silver and gold heads of their children. The tree was magnificently decorated, strung with layers of lights, hung with a burden of popcorn and cranberry garlands, gingerbread cookies, and a gilt star at the top. "They came in from playing ...

The weather later that day was simply perfect. A gentle breeze came in off the water, nothing like the gusts that threatened to cut through you in the coldest winters. Soon after lunch, Brianna, Jem, and Cornelia along with their parents, were pulling on their heavy coats and wrapping their woolen ...

"Welcome, welcome, Landers family!" Joh said, cheeks snapping red from the cold as he opened the heavy oak door and ushered ...

This was actually painful to watch. Bri didn't really know much about what had happened in the last couple weeks with the football team. Mostly what she could glean from the hallway chatter and pull out of Stephen and Diyar during lunch. Still there she stood leading the squad in cheer after cheer ...

In the crisp fall air, Jem wanted to ...

FOURTH QUARTER:

The team still waited for word on Ty, but rumors of a broken collarbone started circulating when Scott Sanders returned from checking on him. Most of the team was tired, battered and bruised from the hard-hitting Hawks, and they needed to hold it together for one more quarter ...

THIRD QUARTER:

Since the Flyers received first in the first half, the Hawks would get the ball coming out of the lockers.

“C’mon defense!” Stephen Reed called from the side lines. Bill Harrison punted the ball clear to the Hawk’s 20 yard line where it was caught by Vangas. He barely moved the ...

Pumping her pom poms wildly, Bri kicked her leg high, grinning. Their first big show and all that hard work had paid off. The ponytail at the back of her head was beginning to fall, but she didn't even bother to tighten it. She had enough hairspray in it to hold it there until Doomsday if need be ...

HALF TIME (ON THE FIELD):
Half-time. The moment everyone had been waiting for. As the cheerleaders took to the field, shouting and whooping, they divided quickly into two groups; Franky on the left, Brianna on the right. Behind Franky, in a diamond formation stood Val, Elly, Yuki and Thorn Hawk ...

SECOND QUARTER:

Biff Hannigan had been making threats throughout the week that anyone on defense who performed less than stellar would find themselves face down in a toilet during half time, but with all the hard work they’d been putting in on their own, they performed like champs, holding off ...

FIRST QUARTER:
Biff Hannigan pumped his fist into the air as the coin landed on heads. "We'll receive!" He yelled as he cleared the field to make way for the offensive line, The Jaynestown section of fans booed and put their thumbs down in a show of disproval, but they were quickly drowned out by ...

PREGAME:

The excitement that filled the Flyer's stands couldn't be matched. Jeff Waters was back and good as new, the minor heart attack served as a wake up call for him to start taking better care of himself. The team had practiced hard on their own until his return, no one wanting to let their ...
