Badlands: Chapter Twenty Five

Thu, 09 Aug 2007 18:37:54 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: The ranks of the Magus stood no chance as they were torn to shreds by an army of coyotes. But it gave Galen and Nena time to try and escape. Watching them run through the woods was Cyril whose plans to get revenge against his old master were thwarted by Miles who after having Cyril dispatched buried his limbless torso in a shallow grave. And as Galen and Nena struggle to make it to the river, she is suddenly overcome with a powerful sensation that brings her to her knees, and as Miles and the Coyotes close in for the final strike, it is Galen who will finally start to understand the true extent of the family curse.

Badlands: Chapter Twenty Four

Thu, 02 Aug 2007 14:19:44 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Miles Lawton has arrived along with an army of beasts. Coyotes loyal to the boy, ready to kill at his command and take more lives to feed the master. And as Nena's followers, the Magus, line up to protect her with guns, knives and anything at hand, the odds don't look good for the humans against the forces of darkness.

Badlands: Chapter Twenty Three

Thu, 26 Jul 2007 14:11:01 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Over a century and a half ago Galen was Thomas Lawton, the older brother to Nena back when she was Alyson Lawton. And it was only after their brother Miles sacrificed her life and the lives of others for his personal gain--to get power to defeat the spirit of the coyote in the fight over who controls the realm of death--that she realized his evil intent included starting what their father William believed to be Armageddon, the end of days. And now with the cycle ready to begin anew, Miles Lawton has returned to find them.

Badlands: Chapter Twenty Two

Fri, 20 Jul 2007 00:36:00 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Miles Lawton's attraction to the place where the Majestyk's traveling party were slaughtered has grown over the past seven years to the point where the killing field now calls to him. But to his surprise his summoning has brought him to do battle with the sprit known as the Wolf. A battle spanning centures over who controls the realm of death. It is a fight Miles is very unprepared for, and only survives by tricking Alyson into helping him sacrifice the lives of others.

Badlands: Chapter Twenty One

Thu, 12 Jul 2007 11:47:50 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Seven years after being discovered in the woods with his sister, Alyson, there are voices calling to Miles, voices of the dead which summon him to the field where the travelers from the Majestyk were slaughtered. And now Miles believes the time has come for that which his father was preparing him for, but unbeknownst to him, it is a powerful force that awaits. That of the Wolf, who has come to do battle yet again.

Badlands: Chapter Twenty

Thu, 05 Jul 2007 23:13:00 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Nena doesn't trust Galen because no matter what he may have been in his past, there may be too little of the brother she once knew still left inside. She knows he's headed across the country to the land where the passengers of the Majestyk lost their lives nearly a century and a half ago and she also understands that Galen doesn't know anything about the town of Shadow Falls. Such begins the tale of what happened to Miles Lawton and his sister and the French settlers who found them wandering in the woods.

Badlands: Chapter Nineteen

Thu, 28 Jun 2007 17:04:38 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: After being imprisoned for several days, Galen is finally released from the pillory only to be dragged into the middle of a circle and tied to a whipping post. There the hooded woman known as Nena flots him in front of her followers. But when she stops, she withdraws something from her pocket and shows it to Galen. To his horror it is a duplicate of the cursed eye he had taken from the Gypsy crone, and in this eye he sees the same terrible vision of the impending war between Heaven and Hell. It's only when Nena pulls the eye away that she reveals where it came from, the skull of her father William Lawton. The man she claims is Galen's father, back in a previous life when Galen was her brother Thomas.

Badlands: Chapter Eighteen

Thu, 21 Jun 2007 14:09:29 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Cyril enters the town of Sagebrush to find the remains of all who were killed by the coyote. He also senses Galen's presence and follows Altos' trail after burning the ghost town to the ground. But upon the trail Cyril finds he is being followed by a man who appears to him with the remnants of burned wings coming from his back. That man is Briar Ghent and what he ultimately shares about Galen is enough to rattle Cyril down to the depths of whatever soul he has left.

Badlands: Chapter Seventeen

Thu, 14 Jun 2007 10:20:26 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Galen pilots the wagon into a clearing looking for help for the dying Maria but what he finds is a cult-like encampment controlled by a hooded woman named Nena. Nena declares Maria to be a witch and as Galen is imprisoned in a standing pillory, he is powerless to stop them as they burn Maria to death at the stake.

Badlands: Chapter Sixteen

Thu, 07 Jun 2007 14:06:47 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Maria is dying and now Galen has made a decision to briefly abandon his journey in favor of finding her a doctor. He is convinced she has been put in his path for a reason and his decision to give up his life for her once leads him to believe her survival is key to fulfilling his destiny. After descending into a gorge, he finds a road cut through the forest, one that leads him to a camp. But what he finds on this road, appears to be danger.

Badlands: Chapter Fifteen

Thu, 31 May 2007 00:01:00 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Hot on Galen's trail, Cyril finds the abandoned house and more importantly, the mysterious eye that Galen left behind. When he holds the mysterious relic, Cyril is shown a vision that leads him to believe that Galen is still unaware of who he really is. But then the eye treats him to a second vision, one concerning both the future and the Coyote that Cyril finds very alarming. After leaving the house, he's confronted by Miles Lawton, the boy who Cyril calls "the master". But when Miles tells Cyril to only find and observe Galen, and not to kill him, it is Cyril's turn to question his allegiances.

Thu, 24 May 2007 09:46:59 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Galen has rescued the woman he died to save but she remains unconscious after the ordeal. He places her in the back of her wagon and continues onward searching for the trail that will take him east on his journey. When he stops for the night he realizes that each time he returns from death, his memory is altered, sometimes allowing him to see parts of his past that were previously hidden. This time he's able to remember what actually happened to him back in Sagebrush Texas and the man who had visited him in his cell the night before his hanging.

Badlands: Chapter Twelve

Thu, 10 May 2007 16:33:20 -0700

Previously on BADLANDS: Cyril flashes back to the moment 150 years ago when he suffers the unspeakable fate of becoming a human sacrifice. His body is mercilessly torn apart while he is still alive and it is only before being swallowed by the darkness that he begins to understand what is happening to him. Meanwhile hundreds of miles away, Galen Altos has been killed by a pair of ornery hillbillies who don't realize his death was part of his plan.

Badlands: Chapter Eleven

Thu, 03 May 2007 11:27:24 -0700

Previously on BADLANDS: Galen Altos is dead and hundreds of miles away in Kansas City, at the very same moment, Cyril falls ill. He rushes outside for air but after becoming violently sick, he looks up to find himself flashed back over a hundred fifty years to his past. Back to a time when he was a settler who had just come to the new world with a dream for a better life. But just as a friend named Lucius confides his fears about their leader, William Lawton, Cyril finds they are surrounded in the woods by unspeakable beasts.

Badlands: Chapter Ten

Thu, 26 Apr 2007 11:46:00 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Pinned down in a crossfire, Galen comes up with a plan to get himself out of it but it will require some very desperate measures on his part, desperate enough that he has reconciled the fact that he may not survive the attempt. Meanwhile back in Kansas City, Cyril is avoiding Dunburton's questions about his recent past. He's too preoccupied with the fact that he personally knows the man who stole the box from Dunburton as the same man that he killed years earlier.

Badlands: Chapter Nine

Fri, 20 Apr 2007 11:22:01 -0700

Previously on BADLANDS: After two months on foot, Galen has had very little human contact and lots of time to think about the visions he's had so far. Perhaps too much time. And his only travelling companion, the aged burro he's named "Blue" is now going blind as well as deaf. When the trail he's been walking on suddenly ends in the woods, Galen continues onward to find where it picks up again. There in the dirt he spots some recent wagon tracks which he follows in the hopes of making some kind of human contact. What he finds, however is more than he bargained for. A pair of hillbillies raping a helpless woman whose tongue they've cut out to keep her quiet. Drawing his pistols, Galen decides to do something about it, though after rescuing her and killing one of her attackers, he's now being fired upon by gunmen hidden deep inside the woods.

Badlands: Chapter Eight

Thu, 12 Apr 2007 18:02:27 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: Inside the carved ebony box stolen from Elias Dunburton is a petrified eyeball into which one can see visions of what they percieve to be the future. It is when Galen steals a peek into the eye that his very mind is penetrated by a vision of the impending apocalypse, the end of mankind. And though reluctant, he is thrust into a journey he believes he has no choice in taking, for to refuse would mean more innocent lives sacrificed to whatever forces killed every man, woman and child in the town of Sagebrush, Texas where Galen had been incarcerated and awaiting execution. What Galen will find on this journey, has not been made known to him. But what has, is the destination he's headed towards--a small town half way across the country that has appeared in several of his visions.

And so we begin Part 2...

Featuring the song REDEMPTION by KEVIN REEVES

Badlands: Chapter Seven

Thu, 05 Apr 2007 14:26:57 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON SHADOW FALLS: Galen finds himself under the control of the Gypsy crone and even she seems to know more about him that he does. Her task for him is to steal an ornately carved ebony box, the very object he recently delivered into the hands of a rich old man named Elias Dunburton and bring it back to her. Galen does, at gunpoint but then later, after looking inside the box, he realizes what's inside is not something he's willing to give up quite yet. And when he returns to the Gypsy's fortune telling parlor, he pays back the crone for using him as a pawn. He pays her back, with vengeance.

Badlands: Chapter Six

Thu, 29 Mar 2007 15:53:19 -0700

IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER: Galen pays a visit to Elias Dunburton, the man he's been sent to Kansas City to see. Dunburton invites Galen to his house and this is where Galen gives him the package, inside which is an ornate ebony carved box. During dinner, Dunburton believes he recognizes Galen from the war though Galen denies it. Dunburton asks many questions, especially if Galen knew about the fate of the San Patricio Brigade, a band of U.S. Army deserters who fought for Mexico and were later hung as traitors. The line of questioning makes Galen very uncomfortable and eventually he asks to leave. On his way back to his boardinghouse, Galen finds himself once again in front of the fortune telling parlor belonging to the Gypsy crone, but this time a voice inside his head is telling him he needs to go in there and kill her.

Badlands: Chapter Five

Thu, 22 Mar 2007 00:10:00 -0700

PREVIOUSLY ON BADLANDS: It had been months since someone had used Galen's name. We go back to the February before Galen's incarceration in Texas when he was asked by his one-time employer to hand deliver a small package to Kansas City. Once there he discovers the address he's been given is that of a bank that is closed until morning. With the itch to have a drink after weeks of sobriety, Galen goes to a nearby bar. After downing several shots of whiskey he has a pleasant but short visit with a stuttering and dumpy-looking whore named Daisy. While stumbling back to the boardinghouse where he is staying, he happens across a lit storefront window painted with the word "Fortune". Compelled by something inside of him, Galen finds himself entering this old gypsy woman's parlor, though what he's looking for is incomprehensible at the moment. The gypsy crone asks him for six bits and begins reading his tarot. Something however in the cards alarms the old crone. Suddenly she pushes Galen out the door, then cryptically tellis him. "You watched them all die. And now they're hunting you."

Badlands: Chapter Four

Thu, 15 Mar 2007 13:07:25 -0700

IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER: As the footsteps in the darkness come toward him, the stranger begins to believe he's being followed. His mind flashes back three years to his time as a soldier during the American invasion of Veracruz, Mexico. One night shortly after the battle had been won by the U.S. Army, the Stranger went into town with some fellow soldiers including a man named Cyril. Caught breaking into a store by its owner, Cyril murders the man in cold blood. Then when confronted in the street by the shopkeeper's angry family, it is again Cyril who initiates a bloodbath, one that culminates, to the Stranger's horror, in Cyril scalping a little Mexican girl. But as the Stranger flashes back to the present, the footsteps have drawn closer, and as he turns, to his horror he discovers it is indeed someone from his past. Someone who greets him by saying "Hello Galen".

Badlands: Chapter Three

Thu, 08 Mar 2007 00:01:00 -0800

In Chapter two the man only known to us so far as "The Stranger" has left his mysteriously unlocked jail cell only to made a grim discovery, he is the only one left alive in the entire town of Sagebrush, Texas. While he lay sleeping, awaiting his own execution, someone or something slaughtered every man, woman and child, leaving behind bodies, their flesh torn apart. Though he looks everywhere, there are no signs of life to be found, only death. Deciding he has to leave as quickly as possible, the Stranger also realizes there are no horses, though a few were found killed, the rest have somehow vanished, leaving him to believe this could have been the work of horse theives. But hardly ever are horse theives this brutal. Nonetheless, with the sun setting and the prospect of being stuck here another night, the Stranger comes across an aged and somewhat deaf burro tied up behind a house. Loading as much as he can on the burro's back, he leaves on foot trying to put as much distance between himself and the town as possible before nightfall. And hours and miles later, as he stops for the night to make camp in a dried up riverbead, he falls alseep, only to be woken up a short time later by the sound of a footstep in the darkness.

Badlands: Chapter Two

Thu, 01 Mar 2007 15:00:11 -0800

THE STORY SO FAR: In chapter one we meet a man identified only as "The Stranger" who on a hot summer day in 1850 has a date with the gallows. The day before his execution begins like most of the others over the past three years when he awakes from the same recurring nightmare--people trapped in a church burning to death, screaming for their lives as he stands there unable to help.

As has been the case since his arrest weeks ago, The Stranger is mistreated and abused by the town locals who view his hanging as the perfect cure for boredom in this little dusty town just north of the Rio Grande. As night falls, The Stranger's fight to stay awake is futile and this time he's visited by a different nightmare. Though the setting is similar, the inside of a burning church, the people are different. And this time he is confronted by an imposing figure who calls him by the name of "Brother Thomas" and mockingly implores him to "do something". The Stranger wakes in his cell in a cold sweat and that's when he realizes that someone has left his jail cell unlocked and the door open.

This Night by BLACK LAB

Badlands: Chapter One

Thu, 22 Feb 2007 00:18:00 -0800

In the summer of 1850, a jailed killer awaits his hanging. But what waits for him behind destiny's door is something very unsuspected.

Badlands: Prologue - Part 2

Thu, 15 Feb 2007 16:21:51 -0800

In the first part of the prologue we jump back some 300 years to the brave men, women and children who came from England to find a new life. Their passage is both arduous and tragic, and marked with death, as some of those who embarked on the journey would not make it to see the end. Once on land, the remaining would-be settlers departed in a wagon train to find the parcel they had purchased. A place they longed to call home. But as they draw closer, two more men mysteriously vanish. Leading a search party to find them is the group's patriarch, William Lawton, and three other men. What they find are the grisly remains of one man and evidence there are things in the woods that are quite deadly indeed. There's one person however who believes another force is at work here. William's eldest son Thomas tells his younger brother Miles that while on board the ship, he saw their father push a woman overboard in the dead of the night. Miles doesn't believe him but then wonders why Thomas would say such a terrible thing. Then, as he lay there sleeping, Miles is awoken by his father who whispers to him "Listen to every word I tell you and don't make a sound or you will perish tonight like the others."
