Sylum Advent 2019: Day Nineteen


Summary: They had met when they were eight years old.

Author’s Note: This story isn’t based within a fandom, the characters are original. The sport is Australian Rugby League, in association with the NRL (National Rugby League). The ‘Tasmania Devils’ and ‘Black Swans’ are fake teams, along with the players within the story. The few NRL Teams mentioned have no association with the story.

If you’ve never seen a Rugby League game – I suggest you check Australia NRL or Super League in England or even the Rugby World Cup (which just finished in Japan).

Sylum Inspiration: Peter Caine

Shogun: Member

Peter’s father Kwai Chang Caine, and his father before him were Shaolin Priests. Peter himself was raised in the Temple, studying the religion, until it had been burned down. In the chaotic aftermath, Peter had been separated from his father, leading everyone to believe that he had been orphaned. He was shipped around foster families, the families not sure how to handle the quiet spiritual boy.

After he graduated it high school, he went straight into the Police Academy. He graduated with honors and over the years moved up the ranks to Detective. He requested to be transferred to the precinct in Chinatown feeling more at home in the area.

After his partner retired, he was assigned a new guy who had transferred in from Dallas Kermit Griffin. He took the prickly attitude from his new partner easily and the two built a good partnership.

Though he had suspected something was different about him, but couldn’t figure out what.

While investigating the Chinese Triad, Peter had ended up shot. He laid on the ground knowing he was going to bleed out on the floor of the warehouse. In a few calm breathes he centered himself, ready to let go – his only regret was leaving behind Kermit.

Sylum Advent 2019: Day Fourteen


Summary: Something was hinky. Not the best description for it, but hinky seemed to fit.
Sylum Timeline: May – July 2005
Author’s Note:  This story is technically the replacement for Loved One Lost.  I’ll tell you now it’s not going to be the story you’re expecting.  It was pulled off Clan War as it needed to be it’s own story.  Its focus is on Nick’s kidnapping & burial, the team searching to find him, plus the aftermath.  It brings in threads we needed to deal with and sets the foundation for future stories.
