The End of Neopia

Larry's eyes scanned the dark Haunted Woods for the source of the voice. The light of the haunting moon cast the world in stark contrast. Nothing stirred save the gently blowing leaves scraping across the rough dirt path.

"A Valentine Surprise" by geneames1
Isca sat in the living room of the undersea home belonging to her sister, Caylis. For once, she was alone; Caylis needed a break and went out to hunt for shells for her extensive collection, which meant Isca finally had time to think without interruption. She gazed idly out of the window, watching schools of colourful fish swim by. Her mind was not on the fish, however. She was thinking about Valentine's Day.

Placing the necklace on the dresser, she turned and scanned the space. She noted approvingly that it was only mildly dishevelled - the bed was unmade, and the sand on the floor hadn't been raked, but other than that it was reasonably neat. Suddenly, she noticed something on the floor at the foot of the bed; her curiosity got the better of her, and she floated over to take a look...
