700	"Hey guys, it's Josh and welcome back to Let's Game it Out." I looked around frantically, trying to see who had uttered the words; I found no one. Knowing the tales of what this meant, however, I felt trepidation course through my body. Only good things, I trust. After all, if a being of unmatched power could alter o...
701	A Good Boy’s Wisdom Gus lounged on the couch sleepily with the lazy afternoon sun streaming in when Lisa walked into the room filling the air with the static of her tension. Gus sat bolt upright, instantly alert with his face creasing into concern for his beloved. Lisa plopped down next to him and ran...
702	"So, that's it?" "Yeah. Not sure what you were expecting." "Well, not you, for sure. Of all the people I'd watch the end of the world with, why my ex-wife?" "Because maybe, for some unknown reason, the world drew us together even as we tried to wash each other from our hands." "Yeah, after all that fighting, I real...
703	"This ain't an easy job kid." Joe was sorting the bills, counting them out like he did every night with slow patience. I sat on the old stool, spinning round now the store was closed for the night. I didn't like to leave the old man alone when he locked up and the few extra minutes, they didn't hurt. “I know.” “I’m ...
704	Catherine sat at her desk, looking out the bedroom window above it at the vast expanse of brown fields and dying grass far below her. A light snow had begun to fall over the sullen landscape, dotting the dark fields with bright spots of white. Any ordinary girl would have been crying, but crying was not Catherine's na...
705	Dinner Date You’re outside a restaurant, and it’s late, and cold, and this dress is too short, and you forget all of that because there he is. He’s stunningly attractive. Chiseled jaw, lean swimmers figure, looking lovely in a suit. You’re thrown. Mesmerized. He slides up to you, smiling. Warm. He’s very warm. H...
706	“For the love of god, please,” Lena pleaded with the screaming, shit covered infant, “PLEASE just stop crying so I can wipe your ass and be done with this! Come on. Coochie coo? Googaboogamagoooo?” Lena cooed helplessly and unashamedly at the flailing, weeping baby. “Beeboobadooooooba— oh jesus, fuck, that’s a new...
707	George Smithson, possibly the most human human to ever roam the green earth, paused mid-swig. He set his tankard down and squinted at his friend. "What do you mean?" "I mean what I said. And I'm saying that humans are just as arrogant as elves." Elia Whitetaker, mage and drunken philosopher, ran a finger around the ...
708	"That murder was pretty entertaining," Red says to me. He was laughing now. We were watching from an abandoned rooftop to the street below where we were watching. There was one guy stabbing another, the one I commanded was the one with the knife. "He wanted revenge, I was just pushing him to do what he really wanted....
709	'Oh, that's new' New is not alien to me, it happens occasionally that I encounter and learn something unexpected. However this was very new, different and strange. ************* Have you ever been sat on a bus or the tube and heard someone speaking in a language you don't understand? When I was young I always took a ...
710	"There are many beasts in this vast world of ours; both meek and great, fearsome and innocuous. Indeed, one could sit and speculate for many hours as to which beast is the greatest, the most fearsome, what have you. Alternatively, you could make like Aranthur and sleep through the largest part of my lecture. Don't act ...
711	Isaac came aboard the Eurydice at Ganymede. He was part of the crew that installed the hyperbaric chambers in the Turner-Al Saad Executive Spa. At the end of the shift, he'd excused himself to the lavatory and then just never left. He had to see it. He had to be a part of history in the making. Dak had helped. He'...
712	Two hundred half lifetimes is a lot. It gives you plenty of time to think about what you’ve done, what you want to do, what you can’t live without. And trust me. I’ve done a lot. I’ve been married at least one hundred and fifty-six times. One hundred and six of those were to the same woman. Five were to men, just for...
713	The mother was inconsolable, dripping, pink, and wailing hoarsely. The father was phlegmatic by contrast, patting the woman's shoulder in 3/4 time, looking down with cool contempt at the child. "Which is this?" I asked, which is a rude way to open, but I've found that kindness accomplishes little in these situations. ...
714	Hush little baby, don't say a word; For you've hatched next to Papa's lightning bird. And if that lightning bird won't kill, Papa's also got a murderous quill. And if that quill won't pierce your scales, Papa's moat of void lacks any safety rails. And if you don't fall to oblivion, The next trap hosts venomous am...
715	CIA Black Site "Finch" - 0300 19 October, 2015 She was watching everything through the small slot in the door, torn between her duty and her conscious. Inside the windowless chamber a man hung from the ceiling, his arms tied to the rafters and his legs hanging limply below him, kicking feebly in one last pathetic ac...
716	Motherfucker. The only seat available was the one in the back corner. Next to the window. That seat was always trouble. Hiyoko double-checked the room in a vain attempt to find another desk, before sighing in resignation and slowly taking her seat. At the teacher's instruction to turn to page 52, she opened her d...
717	The thing about knowing for sure when you die is, you don't know anything about the quality of life leading up to death. When the Oracle told me I was going to die in 50 years, at first I thought I was the luckiest lady on earth - 50 years to do whatever I want with no fear of death seems like a dream, right? Well, I...
718	The old woman placed a hand on the patients chest. A bright light glowed through the room for a moment. Then the old woman stepped back. The patients wife looked at the old woman, holding her child tight and bracing for bad news. "Your wife will be fine," the old woman said, "The plague is purged. Stay here a moment a...
719	Carol lied there on the stiff hospital bed, the beeps of the heart monitor mixing in with the pattering of the rain on the window. She thought back. Things had been pretty alright, all things considered. If she was being truly honest, she couldn't think of anything genuinely wrong in her lifetime. Yet, she felt, for a ...
720	When adventurers meet at a tavern, it's inevitable that they'll start comparing their deeds and trying to decide which of them is the greatest hero of all. In this particular instance, A wizard, a knight, a cleric, and a commoner were in the tavern. The commoner, of course, was a fixture at the place, but the others ...
721	"Ok.." she said. Her voice was almost drowned out by the gurgling of the creek which we'd retreated to behind the school. "You promise - right?" She continued. Her eyes shifted to mine, then the muddy bank which we stood upon. &#x200B; "Of course," I nodded on at her. It'd taken weeks to convince her. Convince he...
722	“Dragon!” I yelled into the cave, “Face me!” A low rumbling echoed up the tunnel. Scraping, hissing, and slithering noises followed. I crouched behind my water-soaked shield and rested the crossbow on the top edge, hoping for a good shot to start things off. The second I saw a glint from the dragon’s eye, I fired....
723	They watched from the sun. One of the largest spaceships ever created, it was home to the Vicitors, a race of peaceful folk, now guarding the universes most dangerous creation: man. For more than a billion years, earth had been used as the Vicitors quarantined area, their artificial sun used as the base of this quaran...
724	"All I'm saying - in the kindest way possible - is that if you don't think there is a single person alive that you'd date, then maybe you should try dead people." Kirsten deadpanned Melissa, the expression saying far more than any verbal statement. "OK fine then!" Melissa shrugged and turned her attention back to h...
725	I looked around the room for one last time. The beams creaked above me, and the dusty window at one all let in nothing but moonlight. Everything was dark, and nothing but cicadas could be heard. Looking around, I was reminded of all of my friends, my comrades... the people who put their lives' product in my hands, tru...
726	She sobbed into her hands, never looking up at me as I paced the room. When I finally paused she braved a peek. "Are you mad?" She asked. I didn't answer, I just glared at her. "Chris I... I wanted a normal life! That doesn't involve using my power! For worse...or for better." I swung hard, burying my fist in the drywa...
727	"Control to Ares Team, uh... we are just as confused here, over." The landing site for the first manned mission to Mars was not a coincidental one to their unexpected discovery. A symbolic time required a lodestone of history at its centre. And what better one than the (rough) area where the Curiosity Rover finally "d...
728	“TOBY! TOBY! TOBY!” By the hundreds, a cacophony of shouts bellowed at him. Shouting his name. He stepped back, rattled, until his eyes adjusted to the morning sun and he could see a swarm of people outside his home. People? No. Not just people. Children. A swarm of children, high-pitched and full of energy shouted...
729	"And with the last of his groceries safely tucked away, Thomas turned towards..." and with that the voice petered off into nothing. And so, Thomas turned. And kept turning. Surely, at any second now the voice would continue and help Thomas finish his day. After all, it had always been there, a deep guiding guardian of...
730	"You're beautifu-uullll" I sang, enjoying the warm water as it rinsed off the dirt from my day of grave digging. "you're beautifullll, its true." I lathered, rinsed, and repeated, scrubbing my whole body with a rough foot stone. The coarse dirt and decomposing bodies always left a stink, no matter how long you scrubbe...
731	"You lay down your sword mortal? You might not get a chance to slay a dragon again, what has possessed this twist of fate?" The dragon asked, unable to even pick up its frail form, it's boney tail much too heavy for its body, forced to lay before the dragon slayer, the armored man tossing his golden sword towards the d...
732	Watching the streetlights flick and change colour was so mesmerising. Following passers by, strangers, neighbours and more as they ventured about their lives. The small buzz of excitement that would flutter about my stomach as one of the white cones would briefly flash into one of many different colours. Or the sheer...
733	I was sitting on the far edge of a mahogany table. It seemed to stretch for miles but was only 16 seats on either side. I was in a board room for the Disney cooperation. Their business side lacked the whimsical aesthetic of the rest of their properties. The only sign that I was even in the Happiest Place on Earth was t...
734	Bender had practiced tying his bowtie for weeks before prom. Some of his friends heckled him for spending so much time trying to get the perfect knot, but he brushed them off; most of them were using clip on ties, but he was a young man of class. He'd always gone against the grain, did things that made him stand out,...
735	My eyes widened in abject horror as I watched the destruction of everything I loved. A half-empty bag of chips fell from my unfeeling fingers to join the junk food detritus strewn around my chair. I sat frozen before my gaming setup for a moment more, before heaving a sigh of defeat. That nuclear Gandhi bug had been fu...
736	The force of the blow knocked Denarius out cold, and it was only then, in his wild and unformulated dreams, that the Sage returned to him. "My son," the Sage said, bowing his head in greeting. "Where have you been?" Denarius asked him, angrily. "For the last month I've had to fight the forces of evil alone. The thing...
737	"Table stakes again?" the thin man asked. He wore black, and the lines time had etched into his face were harsh. "Not this time, I think," the shorter man said. He wore white, a business suit so pristine that it almost hurt to look at. The thin man cocked an eyebrow. "The last game, then?" he asked. The man in white ...
738	"Hey Satan, I got some bad news." "What is it now Larry?" "The Doom Slayer is back." "...Please tell me you are joking. It's taken us ages to repopulate Hell, and we've not even got the demons strong yet! I mean for fucks sake Larry, you are the second strongest guy here and you used to be the intern that made us c...
739	I used to wonder why the greatest heroes of all time always had a legendary magical artifact, and not more. Well, I don’t have that kind of question anymore. My name is Hal, and I’m a fifth-year student at the Conservatory of Abjuration and Illusion. That’s the safety academy for most wizards from Nemen, but it w...
740	"So, it's called... 'brown cheese'?" Jimmy asked, not trusting the demon with thin slice of carmel-colored extrusion topping a slice of bread. "Oh yeah! Funny name, I know, but you MUST try it! We all swear by it back home." Jimmy held his nose and looked closer... there was a red dribble of...something... leaking o...

742	Sir Creton charged into the castle gates, hearing the desperate pleas of help from his Majesty-The king of the Pale. Fear knotted in his stomach; he knew only too well what this meant. The battle had been raging for nigh on a day at that point. The Citadels of war had finally raised their shades and attacked one anoth...
743	Both sides agree that is was the Labor Revolution of the 2090's that was the tipping point. A few hundred years ago, the "every-man" rose up. Complaining about living conditions, about feeling useless, but mostly about the robots. Who is going to pay you a living wage when a robot can do it better, cheaper, and 24x7? ...
744	99 _______ A new kid came to our school; he looked normal enough to everyone else, but I knew better. I had the gift of being able to see how important people will be in their lifetimes. I’ve met a lot of people in my life, most of them normal not a lot of people get more than a twenty. A few of them manage to get up...
745	"Lucy, what do you wanna do today?" Julie asked, tracing Lucy's chest. "Nothing." Lucy eyed his library, all the books having been read hundreds of times. "Oh, come on, Lucy. We have to get out there, let's go to the lava lake, or we could get food at Inferno's, or maybe we could see what Azazel is up to?" Julie move...
746	Marta had three mothers, and she’s not sure how they felt about her, really. There was the one who smelled like sour wine, always, and stayed indoors during the day because the sunlight hurt her eyes. She would beg at night, with Marta, crouching in street corners, half hidden by the shadows. They would sit with their...
747	Mister Goliath walks into a ten story building. I watch him, he's gone in and out of this building approximately two times this week. He brought one woman, three days ago, today he's brought a man with him, and they walk arm and arm. This is but one of five buildings across the state that he normally visits with differ...
748	Members Only &nbsp; Jez squinted as she stepped outside, her department issue optical augments taking their sweet time to adjust to the harsh glare. A wasted second later and she was able to scan One Police Plaza, her technology and experience as an officer giving her a cynical view of everything happening un...
749	The glass-like passageway pulsated like the innards of a just-gutted fish, offering blood for blood spilled. Irok-neh waited on the other side, home of the monsters, and as such I bit my lip. "Poor, rotten souls," I said unto my men. "Are you prepared for your lantern of light to go out? Will you join me to Irok-neh?"...
750	The hiss of some fucking machine doing some fucking thing for whatever the fuck reason woke me up. I blinked, and squinted, because apparently whatever asshole designed this piece of shit thought fluorescent lighting in a bedroom was the way to go. Fucking idiot. I grunted and heard a squeal and a small trickling sou...
751	I thought it must have been some kind of genetic error, a birth defect. Apart from my parents, nobody had ever seen the life long branding on my wrists. I had exercised my right to keep them covered from the moment I was old enough to sign the blue document allowing me not to show them. For some, it was essential th...
752	Maria pressed a damp cloth to her face, dabbing the recent wound that marred her pretty features. Pouting her lips, she skimmed over a large selection of makeup, selecting one labelled '99% Gold' and dabbing it over the cut on her face. Paparazzi! What horrible creatures they were! Always trying to get a look at her...
753	Richards death was unexpected, to say the least. He was just walking down the sidewalk on a normal sunny day when an I-beam fell from the sky and impaled the ground directly in front of him. The tip of his nose was subjected to its velocity as it turned the concrete into shards and embedded itself deep into the ground....
754	They made a mistake. I looked harmless enough, for a human, broken down the country backroads of Kentucky on a Saturday night. I was changing the tire, lug nuts in my hand, thinking of how upset my wife would be, I hadn’t come home yet, when the beam of light hit me. I’d always thought aliens were bullshit. Turns ou...
755	The Grand Elder stood above the Witches and Wizards, his ceremonial cloak blown about by enchanted wind. “Come forth and receive young Jisicla” the Grand Elder said “A staff befitting you’re skills and talents” A small witch walks towards the Grand Elder and kneels with her hands laid bare. With a flash of light her ...
756	They call me Khallee. In the Falexian war, a King held me up and rallied his army. I took 186 limbs, and drank deeply for the first time. The King's daughter held me as she became a ruling monarch, and I helped her beautiful tyrannical reign with glee. I took 3974 heads. A thief stole me from the Queen's bedchamber ...
757	There were three of us in the room. Dr Lydia Tanner and myself were the ones with the labcoats, waiting patiently for our subject to speak again. Kyle Burns sat opposite us, face partially hidden by the LED screen he was studying. He had come in confident, friendly, assured, but that was a whole hour ago. Now, with his...
758	"WHAT?!" I shout as stand and slam my fists into the thick wooden table, "YOU'RE TELLING ME TO SURRENDER?!" My commanding officer, or rather, General Ignavus began shivering in his chair, he was always a coward. "No" he sheepishly says "Command is telling everyone to surrender". He goes on "We may have been finding vi...
759	"North Korea is actually the best country in the world. All the terrible things we knew were just propaganda." I have always been an active participator in dark tourism, from the concentration camps of Auschwitz to the Ground Zero of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. After a lot of consideration on my next visit, I have decided...
760	Captain Gareth van Alden rubbed his eyes, feeling the grit roll together under his fingertips. When he rubbed his hand down his cheek he was rewarded with the sound of stubble and his eyes were rimmed with black rings and lines. It was day three of scanning and day three since he'd last slept more than a couple minutes...
761	Something was wrong. Leonard knew that much. He saw the car stop, the teens walk in. What happened next? He had been dead for so long, it wasn't in his wheelhouse to get caught off guard like this. He was in a grassy field. The sun was out. The sky was thick with a budding spring rain. He felt his heart beat in his c...
762	"Listen friend, I'm really not sure I can make this deal with a clear conscious. I mean. I'm the devil. My soul isn't exactly in high demand." "I realize. But the stipulations you put forth said that anything I wanted I could have for the price of my soul. I want yours." "Yes, I understand, but I don't think you've f...
763	journal entry, [redacted],attempt 306. I must be losing my mind by now. Everything I try seems to fail. I'm writing this as a sort of anchor. Luckily the journal that the Librariate gave me isn't only endless and voice activated, it survives the loops. I'm still trying, but I'm running out of ideas. I...
764	The images of our life together flashed through my mind as the machine analysed my brain. All the good times and bad, I saw the first house we lived in, the first fight we had, all the fantastic memories. The scanner was lifted from me and I was ushered into the next room. My Fiancee was waiting for me. The official si...
765	Only one of the three local news stations had a broadcast this morning, but the internet was a blaze with speculation on what was going on. Every post on the front page of reddit was either a description of personal experiences or speculation on what caused this. The only consensus was that peoples worst nightmares wer...
766	This is it, years of preparation has finally culminated in this moment. Another walk around the pentagram drawn in perfect chalk on the cement floor of the empty warehouse, and he was sure he was ready. Carefully checking the inscriptions one last time, he raised his hands and invoked the ancient verse of Deilani...
767	“A book? A gosh darned book?” You mumble to yourself on your thirteenth birthday. Today was supposed to be great. A time of wonder and amazement. A time when you’d finally learn what your special item was. A time for you to gloat in front of all your friends about how great you were. But nope. You sulk to yourself as ...
768	STAY IN THE LIGHT That morning, the rest of the tribe bid us farewell while the elders only shook their heads in silent disapproval. In all my life, I have seen many beautiful and fertile places only to never see them again, this time I would stay and live here with several fellow minded tribesmen. This was lush ...
769	I did it, I finally told him. I apologized for not telling him sooner. The look on his face was bringing tears to my eyes. He looked as if I just simultaneously told him Santa wasn't real and his dog Happy didn't go to a farm to live happily ever after. It's such a morbid mix between bewilderment and betrayal. I wonde...
770	"Okay dudes, I'll see you tomorrow morning!" I said in a forced, cheeful manner, as I put my phone onto the tablestand, mentally preparing myself for the plethora of songs and noises that the pesky 12 year olds will play. "How do they find waking up a man for the umpteenth time funny?" I wondered. As I hopped onto the ...
771	"Chef?" Angleer replied, his teeth rotating showing confusion and probably mild annoyance. The Sheeg were known for being able to rotate pretty much any part of their body. It made trying to work out their body language a bit off sometimes. At least his heads were still; and at least they had heads, more that could ...
772	"No seriously, you should try it; it's a dating site that specifically caters to same-sex supernaturals!" Mike pushed his smartphone across the table, the branding of the app bold on the screen: Same Sex Supernatural Singles, join 4S today! "Look, I dunno man; the whole dating thing is complicated for me." "Y...
773	She refuses to eat. We have been monitoring her since last week but all she does is lay in her bed and look up at the ceiling, tears streaking down her face. *"Where could it hurt" We all ask confused. We had bandaged the wounds and healed the broken bones and replaced the missing tooth but the human girl does not r...
774	I didn't find him on a rooftop. We didn't meet in a dark alley. It wasn't a cold night, and there was no rain. Real confrontations are not as dramatic as the movies. There is no build up. There is no climax. There is only you, sitting face to face with the man you spent your life searching for. "Hey, Dad." "Son." I ...
775	I figured I'd have to break the news to Rob eventually. Last night he would have made it to 58. I wasn't quite sure what could suddenly bring someone's life expectancy down to 50 days. I figured it was cancer, or some other random ailment that picks a name from a hat. This sort of drastic change was rare. "Rob." I c...
776	"The baby in the sun commands us my brothers and sister, we ride forth across the green plains of eternity to sweep down upon the mortals below!" Twinky Winky shouted from his purple steed. The horse dug its hooves into the vibrant green grass and reared its head. A red rift ripped open in front of the four and th...
777	"...to take back the power which is rightfully mine." "Your royal majesty?" Lord Privy Seal asked. "What do you mean?" The diminutive monarch's face collapsed into a prune of irritation.

778	"Yeah, can't eat it," Adam said. "Allergies." "Allergies." Eve said. "Yup." "Allergies in the Garden of Paradise." Eve continued. "That's the place," Adam said. "Allergies in the perfect Garden of Paradise, where the people in it - that's us - are also perfect and so allergies don't actually exist." Eve sai...
779	(Not my best writing, but I'm having fun with it) I wake up on a cold stone floor and groan. How the hell is this happening again?! I thought after the last time the town tried and failed to sacrifice me I'd be left alone. But apparently not. I sit up slowly, rubbing my pounding forehead. Did they hit me with a blu...
780	The call comes while I’m still in bed: I’ve made it through the second round of interviews despite the incriminating address on my résumé. Third round is today, a “casual lunch to assess your fit with company culture”. Shit. If that doesn’t scream “profiling”, I don’t know what does. *Get it together, self. You’ve...
781	The ten-inch thick steel wall exploded outwards with a ear-splitting crash, like a gigantic gong struck by a skyscraper, showering the room with thousands of razor sharp needles. My nearby employees covered themselves, attempting to stave off the inevitable. I gestured, and the needles immediately stopped in mid-air,...
782	Unusual quietness lingered in the living room when the unthinkable happened. The dog then said, "Can ya hear me loud and clear mate?" Sully said, "What?" doubting his own sense of sight and hearing, he blinked and wiped his eyes with his hands, he knew his dog's mouth moved for real but his mind couldn't accept it. "...
783	(DISCLAIMER: I do not associate with any of the pronouncements made in this story. it's just fiction and it's part of the character. fun reading ;)) - So you just blindly believe in everything the system wants you to? No? I don’t think so. And let me prove this with just one simple fact: Our blood is blue. You...
784	The sky was gray and overcast. The people in Veridian Park drifted listlessly much like the clouds in the sky. Detective Giovanni sat on a wooden bench smoking a cigar. He adjusted his black hat as a punk with dyed blue hair sat down in the bench behind him. "What do you have for me today James?" The punk replied i...
785	You know what the worst part about humanity is? Their will, resolve, strength whatever you want to call it. It fuels them to go further and further into night without any care about anything else except one, surviving. That's their ultimate goal, as insignificant as they are. And as technologically inefficient as they ...
786	Very few people wake up in the morning and fear getting kidnapped by 34 different drug cartels, gangs, or powerful government organizations on any particular day. You life has to be out-of-control in more ways than one for that to happen, and I had a pretty good handle on things. I knew it was true, because I had said ...
787	The snuttlescotches giggled as they saw the wobbly-legged hooman waddle across the vibrant dancing colours of the magidisco floor. The bumblebuns chattered in the air above, merciless in their judgement of the flappy skinned magicless manchild, as their sparkling tails illuminated the ballroom in exciting wonder. A...
788	Set stood before the throne, his heart pounding in his chest. It had been thousands of years since he'd even gotten this close to it, close enough to picture himself ripping his claws through the chest of the god that sat upon its golden seat. "Brother," he hissed, "Your time will come." Horus didn't seem to hear; thi...
789	My eyes were playing tricks on me. They had to be. And of all days, today. Life sure has a cruel sense of humour. It was like nothing had changed. The cute spring in her step when she walked, as if life was a blissful dream without a care in the world. The innocent curiosity with which she pointed and questioned anyth...
790	“You’ll rue the day you ever tried to stop me!!” An iron masked villain in a red long cloak was floating five feet off the ground in front of me, pointing a staff with it’s crystal tip pointed toward me. Pink aura surrounded him as lightning zipped around the glowing pink crystal striking everything around me. “Phara...
791	The harsh whoosh of the flamethrower roared in her ears. Even with her noise cancelling headphones she could make it out, like the fire of a jet engine, steady and true. It cancelled out the screams in the pit below. Alfreda snuck a glance to her fellows in the ridge around her, they were all kitted out in anti-psi gea...
792	Edit: First time writing anything, but I thought I'd just give it a go? Hope it goes with the prompt. ------ I'm seriously considering putting out a death warrant for the chief. It's been half a year of sweet-talking burly tattooed men in backstreet alleys and digging through piles of archived evidence files, and ...
793	They lined up in a row, ready to face He Who Punishes. There were four, although one of them had not been in the original line up. It didn't matter, as long as the parts were played out. The concepts of their beings were the important thing. "Damn the humans!" The Devil himself could not help but be frustrated that of...
794	"Shit shit shit!" I heard the voice down the street accompanied by the crashing of garbage cans and stomping of feet. I picked up my pace. The shits got louder despite my quickened pace and I decided to take a detour through an alleyway. In retrospect this was an exceedingly dumb decision and not one I would advise to...
795	The Witch King of Angmar smiled as the Men of the West marched yet again to confront him. It had been thousands of years since the fated battle where Sauron fell and the Men prevailed. The same battle where the Witch King himself had supposedly perished. They were foolish to believe that his presence could be removed b...
796	The wind was cold on the Arctic tundra. Countless copies of Santa Claus stood, ready, breathing in the frigid air for what they knew was going to be their last time.
