Changing of the Guard: A Short Story

Experience the first story Taylor Dye ever wrote, which inspired the creation of The Intermediaries. A child is sick. A single mother needs help. A prayer is made. Enter: Beat and Case. While they may look like two ordinary kids, there is something."extraordinary" about them. Are they angels? Superheroes? Gods? Whatever they are called, and wherever they come from, when someone cries out for help, they appear. Beat and Case watch as the mother tilts her head up toward the ceiling, her eyes drawing closed, her face showing signs of exhaustion. "God help me, " she breathes. Beat can't help but glance down to the floor, her lips curving into a smile. This is their invitation.
