Operation Rainbow: February 2011
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Feb 18, 2011. Friday April, 29: 12:23 PM. Screams echo through my mind, rattling around the walls of my brain. My life has always been filled with screams of some sort. Whether it be the scream of the train on the tracks behind our house or the screams of gangs running through the streets late at night or the screams of my four younger brothers as they argued over some stupid game or my mother screaming at them to stop their screaming. The island is only about a fourth the size of the island I live on an...

Operation Rainbow: November 2011
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Nov 25, 2011. This Isn't a Game. Monday May 9, 4:50 PM. 8220;They’re so young.” I can’t help but thinking. When Azurite had told me of their coming arrival I had hoped for those a little more ready to handle the battle that he insisted was coming. Those who would be ready to accept the call and stop forward to face the monster. But these? These were just children, younger than even Azurite or I. 8220;How will they ever survive the coming battle? 8220;What did you see? 8221; I inquire. Mikado looks up hes...

Operation Rainbow: October 2012
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Oct 28, 2012. Saturday June 18, 1:26 AM. I stand alone on the overlook, watching as the many tired soldiers march through the doors. I can see the hopelessness on their faces even from this distance and I know that they have all lost something out there. 8220;You can’t blame yourself, Wisty.”. His voice whispers through my mind though he doesn’t speak aloud. “We can’t blame ourselves for Obsidian’s actions.”. 8220;But we made her stronger didn’t we? The man glances at him with a raised eyebrow and then t...

Oct 26, 2011. Monday May 9, 9:45 AM. Once inside I begin sifting through the debris looking for anything of interest. The home seems to have a women’s touch, even in the disarray. Aside from the rosebush outside, a frayed table cloth covers the table, a broken vase lies beside the piano, torn drapes attempt to cover the windows and half melted candles are in are set on tables and shelves throughout the room. As I move toward the kitchen, I am shocked to hear voices coming from outside. I quickly move...

Operation Rainbow: July 2012
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Jul 20, 2012. Wednesday June 8, 8:46 AM. I turn toward Carmine, “You know this area right.”. 8220;Of course.” She responds. 8220;Well then my first act of leader is to turn it over to you. We need trained soldiers to help us find Azurite, people who know this island and are prepared to face Obsidian on the off chance they run into him.”. 8220;I know just the guy.” Carmine assures me. 8220;Well you can’t just sit and do nothing,” Carmine responds refusing to back down. “People are go...Her father looks at...

Operation Rainbow: August 2012
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Aug 23, 2012. Wednesday June 8, 8:55 AM. Cobalt must have registered the same surprise on his face because the Gunnery Sergeant chuckles, “Lost it in my first encounter with Obsidian, lost my arm, my eye and my family to that monster…and I was one of the lucky ones”. Cobalt pressed his lips together and looked back in the direction of Azurite’s still form, “I just can’t believe he’s gone? 8220;He wasn’t a soldier! Why couldn’t you stop this? Myrtle has no response as she takes a step back. Everyone i...

Operation Rainbow: June 2012

Jun 22, 2012. Saturday June 4, 4:33 PM. Now the new normal consists of watching Devon through a three inch screen. I don't work, don't date and don't take my mom to AA meetings. The grocery shopping is done by a 15 year old teleporter and his eight-year-old sidekick in a women’s body. This is the new normal and I'm finding it harder and harder not to enjoy it. 8220;It’s like a war wound! There’s another thump but this time it’s on my door as someone desperately tries to get in. I turn irr...He took two b...

Jul 20, 2011. Saturday May 7, 12:03 PM. 8220;Brrrring, Brrrrring.” I can hear the phone ringing as I stand outside my apartment door, struggling with my keys. I just got back from doing a little grocery shopping and my hands were quite full. I set the bags on the floor beside the door and began shuffling through my purse looking for my keys, the phone still ringing in the background. 8220;Myrtle, you're home.”. 8220;Couldn’t find your keys again.” He says teasingly. I sigh and bite my lip trying to hold ...

Nov 14, 2012. For Good or For Ill. Saturday July 2, 4:02 PM. Dr Agappae has instructed that she be brought to his living quarters rather than be brought to the medical wing and he hasn’t left her side since. Though it has been announced that later today they are going to take her off of the life support. I hear the sound of Carmine’s cane hitting dirt and turn to see her limping towards me. “It’s hard to think about going back after all of this isn’t it? 8220;Why didn’t he come then? She looks up at me i...

Operation Rainbow: May 2012
http://therainbowoperation.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
May 26, 2012. Sunrise in the Forest. Tuesday May 10, 5:45 AM. Azurite’s “attack” as Wisteria had so casually come to call it had shaken me up pretty good. He had convulsed on the floor for about fifteen minutes before going still and then just laid there without moving for a full five minutes before Wisteria had gotten up the courage to move over to his side. She had touched him on the shoulder tentatively but he didn’t move, even when Wisteria pulled him into her lap, calling his name softly. I was so w...
