	Unheard, Unseeing — Creamy's Petpet Spotlight It all started when Alice was very young. It could have been only a short time ago, as Alice is still quite young.... We'll say it could have been in her first year of Neoschool — first or second. by dewdropzz

	The Shenkuu Defender Tryouts They seemed to be evenly matched as each of them won about half of their contests. Their owners did not mind them doing this too much as it was a way of them acquiring motivation and getting more exercise, they’d say. Even they had limits on this, of course, but, as it were, only rarely would their pets’ competition go far enough for them to be concerned. by mbredboy31

"The Ixi and the Queen" by black_skull725
"Your Majesty, are you sure you wish to retain the services of a thief?" King Hagan said, raising his eyebrows. The Faerie Queen nodded emphatically. "I think Hanso deserves another chance, and he will be able to use his abilities for good now. After all, he did save Neopia from impending doom," Queen Fyora replied. "You are also aware you are asking for one of the best knights in my army." "I am well aware of that, King Hagan. I am willing to compensate in whatever means necessary." King Hagan paused for a moment to think, and rubbed his right paw against his forehead. "Come to think of it, I think we can strike a deal. The university's sorcery department is currently understaffed." "You wish for monetary compensation to hire more researchers?" "No, I am asking for Faerieland's finest scholars to help bolster our university." Now it was Queen Fyora's turn to think deeply for a moment. Parting with some of her scholars would certainly slow down some of Faerieland's research, but research would all be in vain should a dangerous artifact wreak havoc on Faerieland again.

The Scorned House
A shadow was cast over the Haunted Woods as dark clouds gathered. A thick haze shrouded the forest of leafless trees. Along a narrow, winding dirt path, a lone, spirited young Bori made his way down the trail, lantern held high and close, his eyes wide, glancing back and forth, watching for any sign of movement behind the trees and within the very shadows.
