  From Africa to his hands and a superhero is born… 
  Calvin Bush lives an ordinary life in Chicago and is stuck in a dead-end job that doesn’t fuel anything inside him – except rage. He knows he’s made for more but has no idea what that is until a single invite to the museum changes everything. 
  Calvin encounters two magical gauntlets, Zamani and Baadaye, but he’s not the only one who has his eyes on them. A mysterious man in a black kabuki mask is lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect chance to seize the gauntlets. Zamani and Baadaye, however, fuse with Calvin, and Zambaa, a mighty superhero comes to life. 
  But the kabuki-masked man will do anything it takes to get his hands on the gauntlets, including destroying the whole city.

  Daphne the Dandelion and her...

  In a magical garden corner lived Daphne, a golden dandelion who was home to two hundred tiny fairy children. Each child had gossamer wings, sparkling eyes, and unique personalities that brought endless joy to their loving mother. They lived in perfect harmony, with daily routines of morning songs, aerial displays, learning circles, and evening serenades that filled the garden with wonder and music. 
  The fairy children had distinct talents and characteristics. Pip was the smallest but bravest, Luna could sense natural energies, Sage possessed deep wisdom about garden life, Melody had a voice like silver bells, Explorer loved adventures, Artist created beauty from flower petals, and Builder constructed tiny marvels. Together, they formed a close-knit family that delighted all the garden's residents, from Rosalind the wise rose bush to Buzzy the industrious bee. 
  Their idyllic life changed dramatically when a powerful Wind came dancing through the garden. Unlike the gentle breezes they knew, this Wind was a force of nature with its own wild purpose. Despite Daphne's desperate attempts to protect her children and their efforts to hold tight to each other, the Wind's joyous dance created such powerful currents that all two hundred fairy children were lifted into the sky and scattered across the vast world beyond the garden. 
  Daphne's heartbreak was profound. She searched desperately with help from garden friends, but her children had vanished completely. Through autumn and into winter, she grieved deeply, shedding tears of pure sorrow before finally succumbing to winter's dormant sleep. During her long rest, she dreamed of her children's adventures and transformations, sensing they were growing and learning in distant places. 
  When spring arrived, Daphne awakened to the most miraculous sight imaginable. Surrounding her in every direction were golden dandelions – her fairy children had returned, transformed by their journey into independent flowers with their own roots.

  The Time Snatcher - A Heist...

  The Time Snatcher by Randall Garrett - Tampering with events of the past could bring disastrous results in the future. It was why Brek was given a pair of six-guns to catch—The Time Snatcher.  
  "We're in a hell of a jam, Brek," the Councillor said. "If Sagginer isn't stopped, he'll change history. The situation's desperate." 
  Time Patrolman Brek Halliday nodded in agreement. It was a tense situation. Time travel, he knew, was possible only so long as the traveller into the past did nothing that would change history significantly; the time-stream itself would straighten out little changes in the past so that overall history would remain the same. 
  But a big change was something else again. If you stick your finger in a river, there are a few ripples around it, but the flow of the river remains the same. If you build a dam, though.... 
  "When is he?" Brek asked. "Do we know?" 
  "Fortunately, yes. He forced one of our operators to use one of the chronokinetic projectors, and then kidnapped her and took her with him. But he didn't know that the power drain was measurable and had been recorded on the meters. We know how much energy he used, so we know how far into the past he went. We've got him pinpointed in the area of the old United States, somewhere between 1880 and 1895." 
  "Who was the girl he kidnapped?" Brek asked. 
  The Councillor smiled apologetically. "Dori Clayton." 
  The muscles of Halliday's jaw tightened. "I see," he said stiffly. "When do I leave?" 
  "We'll prepare you immediately. It's going to be a touchy job to get both of them out of there, so watch yourself." 
  "Don't worry," Halliday said quietly. "I'll manage it." He walked out, eyes hot with rage, thinking of Dori in Sagginer's clutches. His hands slowly clenched and unclenched as he headed down the long hall.

  And Miles to Go Before I Sleep by William F. Nolan - He knew, to the exact minute, when he was going to die. And Earth was too far away to reach.... 
  Alone within the humming ship, deep in its honeycombed metal chambers, Murdock waited for death. While the rocket moved inexorably toward Earth—an immense silver needle threading the dark fabric of space—he waited calmly through the final hours, knowing that the verdict was absolute, that hope no longer existed. 
  Electronically self-sufficient, the ship was doing its job perfectly, the job it had been built to do. After twenty years in space, the ship was taking Robert Murdock home. 
  Home. Earth. Thayerville, a small town in Kansas. Clean air, a shaded street, and a white, two-story house at the end of the block. Home—after two decades among the stars. 
  Sitting quietly before the round port, seeing and not seeing the endless darkness surrounding him, Murdock was remembering. 
  He remembered the worried face of his mother, her whispered prayers for his safety as he mounted the rocket ramp those twenty years ago; he could still feel the final, crushing handshake of his father moments before the outer airlock slid closed. His mother had been 55 then, his father 63. It was almost impossible to believe that they were now old and white-haired. 
  And what of himself? 
  He was now 41, and space had weathered him as the plains of Kansas had weathered his father. He, too, had labored as his father had labored—but on strange, alien worlds, under suns far hotter than Sol. Murdock's face was square and hard-featured, his eyes dark and deep under thrusting ledges of bone. He had changed as they had changed. 
  He was a stranger going home to strangers. 
  Carefully, Murdock unfolded his mother's last letter, written in her flowery, archaic hand, and received just before Earth take-off.

  Xuanzang and his disciples were alerted by a red cloud shooting up to the sky from a hollow while they were passing a tall mountain. When the red cloud cleared, a demon, Red Boy, disguised himself as a seven-year-old child tied to a tree. Xuanzang compassionately untied the child and got kidnapped by a sudden gust of wind. The monkey was informed by the land and mountain deities that the demon was the son of Bull Demon King. He and Pigsy rushed to fight Red Boy but were almost killed by his fire. The monkey transformed into the Bull Demon King but was debunked by Red Boy. In the end, Guanyin subdued Red Boy with a lotus pedestal made of swords. The monkey rescued his master, and the team resumed itsjourney.
