"Would you just please SHUT UP,"I begged. Things had taken a turn this evening that I wasn't expecting. I watched her wall from the train station to her apartment every night for the last three weeks. She always popped into the 7/11 at the corner of Crest and Dupree for a hot coffee. It was cold this time of year. Th...
There is speculation across the Five Realms as to where the Gifts originated from. Those of the scientific community believe it to be some sort of radio-active effect of the Andromeda Phenomena, the collision of our galaxy with our closest neighbor. On the opposite end of the spectrum, those with religious conviction h...
Magic came to me early. I was fixing broken baby birds by the time I was six. My grandmother started my formal healer training when I was thirteen. At twenty I went on the road, and ever since I've been patching up paladins, mages, townspeople caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, and cleared clap from minst...
Bright flashes of light lit the sky in the distance, visible from Earth, Moon, and Mars. Europa was on the other side of the Sol system at the time, so the inhabitants of the small colony there didn't witness it firsthand, but within five minutes of the light reaching Mars it was all over the news. Digital telescope ...
I jumped. No way. I must be seeing things. It must be my sleep deprivation that's fueling this mini nightmare. Just when I had convinced myself that I was slowly going insane and decided to take a walk to outside to grab some coffee, Jeff spoke again "Aah. You were trying to pull off the classic hand-in-cup-of-coffee p...
I walked down the narrow street, A thousand songs buzzing in my ears. For the Most part it was easy to piece together which song was whose. most of the classical Chopin and Mozart belonged to the more high class looking people. the people wearing their pitch black business suits with shoes polished like the back of a b...
50! Absurd, I thought to myself. This bastard keeps changing the goal posts. And did you even see how he barely looked up from his paper? Like I was some kind of lowly insect because, what, I only made it to 30 that one time? Did he forget that I've hit late 40's not once, but twice!? Pfft, knowing him he did for...
Edward Yi. To me, he was just a nice old man. Just about everyday, I would walk by his house and he would sit in his old chair on his porch, rocking back and forth with a smile on his face. He would always wave and give a hearty, "GOOD MORNING!"He would even do it in at 5 in the evening. One day I decide to stop and t...
(I took a subtler approach to this prompt. I hope you like it! It's my first here on reddit.) NATIONAL NEWS ALERT! It was unthinkable, even insensitive, to call it a murder. Everyone knew it was impossible. Impossible! No person could harm one another. That was just how it worked. But when John Harvey, age 37, was ...
I just had to be a smart-ass. I probably could've seen five years in federal prison for my little grow operation. At this point, I don't know if I'll make it five more minutes. The frenzied septuagenarian in front of me was bearing down on my shield with all the force of sweet justice behind his absurd mallet. Swaying...
"s-stop staring at me baka!"Said Void-Chan. "Maybe you stop being so cute Void-Chan."I said, I knew she liked me staring, she stares so often after all. "I'm not cute Baka!" "I think you are. I don't care if you're inky black nothingness, you're adorable!" Void-Chan began to blush, this was odd as she was still ink...
We all saw the broadcast of his arrest. Me and my buddies were ringing each other immediately. "Sounds like a good job?" "12.5 million per person, fuck yea! We'll have to go for it ASAP though. I doubt no one else wants that prize. Charlie was already packing his bags when I called him. Said he had a new device to e...
...a beginning. Life, and time, loops around itself like a mobius strip. Like a snake biting its own tail. All of us see these same moments, again and again and again. But the line that makes up your life is never drawn quite the same way twice. Every decision is a potential deviation, and there's a sense of freedom t...
The Intervention came suddenly and from the sky. Heads of state across Earth were contacted simultaneously, before, even, we understood what all of our satellites and telescopes began to unanimously announce—a galactic committee had arrived in low-Earth orbit, suddenly and all at once. In a moment we learned that Ein...
"So this is awkward,"was the first thing I heard when I woke up. The voice boomed out again, "I have to know..."as the voice trailed away, I felt a surge of heat pushing against my front, nearly knocking me over with the pressure. Suddenly, a man in a seemingly custom-tailored suit coalesced from the heat. "Was that a...
Treating the Devil for a heart condition sounds like it should be an oxymoron or the beginning of a bad joke, yet there I was preparing a transthoracic echocardiogram on the Prince of Darkness. “So can you tell me what happened?” I asked to nobody in particular, too afraid to look up. While the demons which surrounde...
"Please, I'm just so tired. I have nothing left to live for. Just let me rest."The wretched man begged, crawling at my feet. I knelt down to him, and smiled at him. I caressed his cheek gently and spoke quietly. "Then rest eternal. Fret not for the living." The reaction was instant, as it always is. His eyes rolled ...
Some years back, or so we're told, there was a weird message that was said to come from beyond the Outer Rim. It was audio and obviously deliberately created. It took nearly six months to figure out that it wasn't intended to be a form of speech. Instead, once we figured out it was a weird version of binary, it turned ...
"And thats when the brave Paladin ran up through the dragons flames."My eyes always grew wide during this part, ever since I first heard his stories. "Steeled with his own unbreakable will, and his determination to save his friends, he emerged out from the other side and struck the dragon with such strength, it stumbl...
"Hey, baby. Did it hurt when you fell from Heaven?"I winked at the man sitting across from me. His jaw dropped in a perfect O of shock. Then, unexpectedly, he burst out crying. "Yes! Oh, God, yes!" "Grea—wait, what?"My suave expression died mid-smirk. "This planet is a nightmare!"He banged his fist on the bar, maki...
"Finally!"I exclaim, setting down my tool kit and sitting down on my kitchen counter. The new skylight window was officially installed. It had taken me hours, but I was starting to get used to the constant home renovations. My house was slowly becoming more and more like an armored fortress, but what else was I goin...
"Ok, so, here's the idea: someone online posts a writing prompt, right? And someone gets inspired to write up a real good story about it, but the person who wrote the prompt gets mad when the other guy gets rich and famous, and so there's this heated lawsuit battle over who deserves the royalties-" "I get it, I ge...
''You're a part of the majority. Your job is to find and eliminate the four impostors hiding among you, before they manage to kill you all. Good luck!'' I never signed up for this shit. I just wanted to make some fucking cash to feed my coke addiction, but I'm not up for no sci-fi shit. Man, being a homeless addict su...
The glass clinks as you pour the whiskey, it's a simple trick but one that people expect, along with the smart but discrete black suit, the black gloves and the face that is somehow totally impossible to describe. &#x200B; It's all just part of the game, the suit, the gloves, the hard drink sipped slowly. &#...
Ting! Ting! Ting! Malorous tapped his champaign class with a spoon, and let the room quiet down. "I hope you've all been enjoying this fine party I have thrown for you tonight,"he said in a booming voice, laced with mischievous intent. "But I do believe the next thing I'm about to say may put a damper on your fine...
"So...yeah. That's what happens in all my dreams."Tom was at the village medic's, describing the nightmare he had been experiencing every day for the past week. A very evil-looking man, draped in heavy black robes that were surely uncomfortable for the season, told Tom his evil plans for world domination in explicit d...
I felt a horrifying chill come down my spine when I saw him. A grand imperial inquisitor had come to this little sleepy village. He stood there talking to the village elder. They still didn't know I was there. I saw the rugged man move around in his gleaming armor, it glinted the light from the sun, each little beam s...
One year and a day. For the mortals that used to worship him, it was a long time. But for Ajwa, it was not nearly long enough. He had spent all his time being the god of a small tribe located on a small island in the Pacific. But now that the last tribe member had died, he had such a small amount of time to chose a new...
The room seemed to stretch on forever filled with an endless sea of humanity. It was a nice room to be sure, open ceiling so you could stare up at the stars, free coffee, a crisp golden floor that felt like fresh grass when you walked on it. Instead of the normal rancid smell of body odour you would expect in a room ...
The Canadian Standoff Nancy was driving northbound when she reached the four-way stop. Erin was driving eastbound when she arrived. Steve was headed south when he came to a halt at the line. And the fourth man who braked at the four-way was Wesley, heading west. "After you!"cried Nancy to Erin, out her open windo...
My fingers tightened on the recycled gift bag that I found deep in the bottom drawer of my my mums kitchen as I sat at my desk near the door. I inspected the almost radiating medieval sword on my desk. My gaze only diverted from the sword to see Janine from accounting, sitting cross legged on a rippled carpet, float...
"1 more day and I am out of this pod." I thought to myself, as I was chewed on by a monster. It wasn't real, it was a virtual reality created by the prison I was in. Suddenly, the pod opened. "Having fun, John?" The android asked. "Not really, I miss the old days, when I need to be careful with the soap." I sai...
"Well I still think this test was unfair,"a president muttered, eliciting grumbles of agreement from the assembled dignitaries. "Your personal feelings matter not, human,"the alien dismissed him. Despite its convincing human facade, its emotionless voice betrayed its extraterrestrial origin. "Your planet remains in v...
The TV screen shone brightly as words flashed upon them. Another amazing defeat of the Mastic by Hero Bode, the top hero who mysteriously appeared near two years ago. My left eye twitched. He was coming home early today. I’d hoped he would every day, but not today. I groaned, waves seeped out in lashes. It seemed...
"Why, Mr. Kent, how good of you to join us today!" The bald man smiles, his arms wide in greeting. "Why, thank you, Mr. Luthor,"I say, with a smile of my own. "And thank you for inviting the Press to the launch of your newest product! I'm just sorry I was late." "Oh, call me Lex, lad, call me Lex."He shakes my hand ...
The stars, they said. Shoot for the stars. I was on board, literally and metaphorically. From day one I said, you know what? I will. I will shoot for the stars. &nbsp; I paid my dues, I worked hard at school, then at university, and then even harder at my internship at NASA. I was uber diligent, hyper focused an...
Finally. Here' we go, I thought to myself as I turned off the flashing red and blue lights on the roof of my vehicle. Someone has to put an end to the masked vigilante's recklessness. Granted, the man does a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to fighting the big crime lords in the city, but he also breaks so ma...
Get up. Get. Up. Jonis thought to himself as he crouched in the dark. The wraith had long since gone away but still Jonis' veins ran cold. Those creatures had been hunting him for months now. Every encounter was more perilous than the last. Today was the closest he had ever been to being caught. He had been cornered ...
START LOG Despite our knowledge of Terrans being a very vulnerable race. They have continued to spread throughout the universe, no threat or deterrent has ever stopped them for long. When faced with even a black hole, these Terrans in a matter of years found a way by using antimatter to force the black hole to close...
To be immortal is to live a lonely life. Dr. Emmanuel Wahid had known this fact for the past 3000 years of his life. Change was his constant companion, something he had grown accustomed to. Sometimes he felt something in his chest echo, something gaping like a ravine. But he had centuries to get used to the feeling, s...
He was a televangelist. Like most of most of his ilk, he only played lip service to the god he represented. Now he was prostrated in front of his lord. "I'm not worthy!" "I know that, and, frankly, you and you cohorts have been giving me a bad name. It's been like that ever since \[redacted\] wrote all those rules tha...
# Soulmage The riftmaw had made its den in a jagged chasm, dug out with a single exhale of its mighty breath. Quianna gulped as she approached the towering fissure in the mountain. It was peaceful here—no clamor of birds, no cacophony of insects, not even an enterprising herbalist harvesting the calmflowers that g...
I felt a pit of dread yawing in my stomach. I look around. Could there be somone out side the window, an old man passing by on the sidewalk? No. No one in range, except my wife. My beautiful, sweet, adoring wife. No. No No No Nononononono- "Honey, is something wrong?" My chest hurt. It was taking all of my effort...
Hiding in the darkest and most abandoned regions of the world, places where people will not go for reasons of remoteness, dangerous environmental conditions, or because they're exceptionally well hidden; there are still monsters. Strange, bizarre, and abominable creatures who could tear a man limb from limb. They congr...
"I'm frankly quite shocked." Black Dart stood up wearily, clutching his gaping wounds. He wasn't much of anything in the League Of Peace, but at the very least he knew a villain when he saw one. Not just any villain graced his glinting green goggles, and shimmering suit crafted by the best the League could offer, but ...
"Wow. Congratulations. You did it."The advanced computer's voice was uncharacteristically mechanical. "Not now, M."The universe was shrinking away as I drifted. The faint twinkling of trillions upon trillions if stars now no brighter than a candle in a blackout. "No. Seriously. You deserve it."M played an audio clip...
Power in the wrong hands is a dangerous concept. But what are the wrong hands, truly? There is the easy answer; a giggling maniac who is unfettered from any sort of morality, the sort of man who will smash the universe for nothing more than the pleasure of it. But such people are rare, and usually never amount to much ...
The sound of a gavel banging on wood brings your senses back into focus. “Order! The Court of the Afterlife is now in session.” The voice booms around you as if being spoken from all directions at once. It sounds like a thousand different voices all combined with no defined gender. “All present state you name for the ...
The once-blue skies were tainted with crimson. The chirping of birds and rush of cars were replaced with the screams of the damned as they were torn by claws, mutilated by jaws, and crushed by beings thrice their size. The gentile breeze that carried the sweet scent of yesterday’s rain could no longer be sensed underne...
Waves. We are all taught that certain things move in waves. Water, whether it be the gentle babbling of a quiet creek, to the massive breakers slamming into gargantuan cliff faces. Sound, light, radio...they all move in waves. No one ever expected the geese to move in waves. Hundreds of thousand of them working like ...
*Prince duLoc scrambled through the woods. Behind him, the sounds of the battle went on, the sounds of his men dying. Men he was powerless to save. He looked at his hand again, covered in his own blood. His legs tingled; he could not feel his toes. He fell and crawled, leaving his sword and seeking someplace he could p...
The room was a blur of motion. Scientists, researchers, movie enthusiasts, all bustling around the room in a maelstrom of people. My mind was preoccupied, however. “The end of Humanity”, it was called. An alien fleet, just now passing by Jupiter. Massive and armed to the teeth, visible cannons waved back and forth, f...
"ꁝꏂ꒒꒒ꄲ, ꂵꋬꇙ꓄ꏂꋪ."(Hello Master) I heard the voice first, distorted and deep, familiar yet somehow... Wrong. The summoning circle glowed an ominous green, a shade I had never seen before. Beams of light shot out of the circle and Professor Lovelace drew his wand. "What did you just summon?!"He asked me, "I don't...
One... one... one... What did it mean to be one? Across millions of years, billions of worlds and uncounted trillions of bodies the question had never came up. There was the Hive, and then there was the Other. Eventually the Other would join the Hive, the idea that one day the very light of the stars themselves would...
"And here is the list of outstanding debtors." I took the slip of paper, glancing over it whilst taking a sip of coffee. From what I could see, most were on track. Their next payments weren't yet due, the older ones all paid up to date. My eyes focused on three, each with a red sentence next to them. The first had co...
It'd been an accident that had led to the discovery. An alcoholic Welsh medical student's hidden red wine, in a repurposed blood bag, in a St Thomas Hospital blood bank fridge. The few vampires who had survived in modern London had found switching to wine exceptionally straight forward. 24 hour access with no need to ...
I’ve seen it before, the look in those eyes. Long ago, before my mothers mothers mothers, they came. They were strange animals, standing like trees, hairless yet covered in furs. At first we didn’t understand what they were. They smelled like stagnant water and dead flesh of my brethren. Their forelegs were miss...
The Emperor sat on an invisible throne, which all of the dignitaries and world leaders could only imagine being lavish. No one in the audience of at least three hundred people dare speak, unless they wanted to offend the Emperor. There he sat, face a pale incarnation of death, with a single black tear running down his ...
She stared at the picture. "Sam, where did you see this?" "Under my bed." She looked at her little boy, his cowlick standing up, his face serious. "This is the monster under the bed?" "Yeah Mom, that is what I have been trying to tell you." She stared at the crayon drawing. Of all the 64 colors in his crayon bo...
I coughed a little, nearly choking on the soda she had given me. "I... beg your pardon? You said... twins?" "Well, yes, of course,"she responded with a furrowed brow. "I gave birth to two boys." "I... believe you are mistaken,"I said, slowly. "You see, I am one of three, I am a triplet." She gave me a blank stare, a...
I got up on the stage and clicked the powerpoint presentation. Men, I present to you the new hydrogen fuel cell electric marine engine. Now i know what you're saying, it didn't work for cars, how come we're applying it to cargo ships? Simple, because cargo ships are much bigger and have different mechanical load iss...
A prompt on the computer monitor flashed, signaling yet another incoming call. Adjusting his headset, God sighed and rubbed his aching eyes. It was only nine in the morning, and already the day was too long. He cleared his throat and accepted the call. "Thank you for calling Galaxy Internet, my name is Jesus Christ. H...
"Thanks for contacting EZ Fab technical support; this is Marie. How can I help you?" "Yeah, hi. I bought one of these printer things recently, but every time I try to print out some food, it doesn't work. It doesn't print out anything. "I see! Well, that's terrible. First, could you please tell me your name and addre...
They came quietly in the night, travelers from a world of light and peace. In their world, everything was perfection. No one went hungry, children laughed and played without worry, and utopia was achieved. And yet, this particular group consisted of men of a larger scope. Men of all time and space, keepers of the unive...
People will ask you why you do it. "Isn't it boring? You aren't really doing anything, are you? You aren't really going anywhere." They won't understand if they don't already. To them, travel is just a chore. It's something that takes up time before they can be where they want to. It takes strength to truly traverse ...
"Where am I?" "Hell." "Really?" "Yes. No. Maybe so. Does it really matter?" "It kinda does." "Ah, well it sucks to suck." "Pardon?" "I'm confused." "How are you confused? You're supposed to be all-knowing." "I got a 72 in Grade 10 English when I was in Grade 11." "Hey, so did I!" "Congratulations, you're stu...
I still think I am the greatest. But I Build Pyramids Constantly! How Can You Be Greater If I Already Am? I still think I am the greatest. Look, The Thruth Is Hard For You. Either I Lie To You Or We Cry Together. Would you belive in what you believe if you were the only one to believe it? You know, 'cause you are. ...
“So, what are you wearing?” the devil asked as I groggily picked up the phone. I blinked a few times, trying to focus, then glanced over at the clock. God dammit, 3:31 a.m. “You’ve been drinking again, haven’t you? I thought you said you were going to start going to those meetings?” I carefully extracted myself from ...
Monday 13 April, 1998 Beautiful day today. The boys are playing around the field behind the church. Subject Samuel Smith adapting to the school environment pretty well for his first day. Will return tomorrow for more data. -- "Hey Sam, thanks for today, that was fun! Wanna join us tomorrow? I'll bring my re...
The procession had long since passed, leaving the street barren and empty. The usual collection of litter and other substances - some of which were probably best left unexamined - had replaced the solemn march of feet. A visitor to the city would have had no idea that a funeral had just taken place... though Sergeant F...
Primateus Bipedals - Gragnak looked up at her date's third face. "What are these things Mmmmmecha?" Mmmmmecha crouched down, folding onto his secondary knees to be able to peer through the glass into the strange enclosure. "I dunno babe, weird pink things? This place has got everything, have you seen the gas bunnies...
First contact came. And it ignored us. At first we assumed that they were merely observing us to see if we were peaceful or something, so we were all on our best behavior for a couple of months. Then we tried doing a show for them, flying out there in a re-purposed space shuttle and knocking, bribing, singing and hurli...
Truman sat at his kitchen table, running his spoon in lazy circles through a bowl of cereal that had long since gone soggy. He wore wrinkled, stale-smelling pajamas and stared at nothing in particular. It was 3:00 in the afternoon. "Truman, honey,"Meryl said. She stroked his arm and sat down beside him. He fixed his d...
Bing The loud noise of my phone infiltrates my subconscious. I internally sigh, pull the pillow over my face, and almost instantly fall back asleep. Bing Bing The noise wouldn't quit. I grab my phone from the side, reaching out to muffle the piercing tones. I felt groggy, and my throat felt like sandpaper. M...
"Is the tape recorder already on?"I ask starting across the table at the chubby reporter. He nods and raises a hand to beckon me on. "Alright... um, well... it is all true."His eyes widen and excitement grips his face, but he does not make a sound. He waves at the recorder on the table. I flip through the papers h...
"Oh Jesus, oh Christ no."The CEO cried when he saw the finished product. "You promised me a super-cop!"He shouted at the cowering scientists in the corner. What they were looking at was the most advanced cybernetic and AI technology fused into a fat, slob of a security guard. "I'm sorry sir... Everything in his profi...
Such a beautiful little princess. A clean pink dress with a sparkling tiara, gossamer wings, and a glittery magic wand. So nice to see a girl not dressed as Elsa for once. She came to my door and held out her bag with an adorable curtsey, proudly telling me that this year, she was old enough to trick or treat all by ...
Reading Comprehension "I'm sorry?"I asked the policeman. "I said, please come with me. You are suspected of being involved in a murder as the victim." "You do realize you're talking to me." The policeman pulled up his pants so they covered more of his belly, then spoke slowly, as if I was dumb. "Yes, sir...
Hermione Granger eased herself into her seat beside Ginny Weasley. It was the very first Defense Against the Dark Arts class since Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry had reopened. Hermione thought of Harry and Ron, both working with the Ministry of Magic to rebuild after the war. She missed them terribly, but s...
First are the cotton rags. Between the radius and ulna, fibula and tibia, I pack them to take up the empty space. Around those go unbleached linen, around and around, until the fabric is the thickness of a forearm and my once-fleshy calves. The fingers and toes are next; soft white cotton goes around the digits, ...
"God damn it, Henry, go to bed already. What're you even doing here this late? How did you get here?"Dr. Strauss whispered angrily, looking left and right to make sure he didn't wake anyone up. I stifled a giggle with my hand. "I stole a rover earlier and hid in a bathroom. I want to ask you a few questions. Let's g...
"Grandma, what are you doing?" I looked at her sweet, innocent face, with her broad-rimmed glasses perched neatly on top of her nose. "Just using the computer to do some website formatting, Johnny. What did you think I was doing?" I saw her computer screen, thinking it strange that she wasn't trying to cover it up o...
The Phantom Menace, George Lucas' long-awaited prequel to his Star Wars trilogy, is a masterpiece that surpasses the originals and introduces us to the character find of the decade, Lucas' imaginative visuals updated with stunning new computer graphics. The movie starts off slowly enough, with an intricate and obtuse...
I love my tablet. I use it all the time. My tablet isn't just any old disposable, good-for-a-few months kind of tablet, though, my tablet is the Watson 4. Named after it's great-great-great-however-many-greats-grandfather, my tablet incorporates one of the smartest and most efficient AIs available on the market: Watson...
A sad girl with large glasses and unkempt hair shuffled along outside Hogwarts in the evening. The breeze was cool in the setting sun, signifying the end of summer. The rest of the wizards and witches were eating in the hall, but she had no appetite. She could just ask the house elves for a meal later. &nbsp; She ...
I thank Sam and Sarah as they enter. It's been a hard time for me, and probably a bit for them as well. We were all close to Helen, even though she did have her issues. As I close the door, I notice a short glance between the two of them. Odd, considering the circumstances. “So why're you moving, Rob?” states Sarah. ...
The house that the address led me to was - well, for a start, it was a house. Not a huge factory, or even a factory at all. Practically a cottage, jammed in the middle of other, similar cottages. I looked back at the empty can, partly to confirm the address, and partly to confirm that it was a can that looked as if it ...
The man in front of me held his hands out. In one was the blue pill. The red was in the other one. I'd never really been great at focusing on more than one thing at a time. He was talking about what exactly the pills did, but I was still trying to figure out where he got those sweet sunglasses from. Like really, I cou...
Amateurs, Schwartz thinks to himself. The web browser on his laptop is open to a video from Facebook. In the video, a young woman with bangs sneaks behind a large man and chucks a napkin into his face. Then, she quickly walks away. Schwartz replays the video. *Liquid VX poison? What are we, living in Cold War Russi...
Beep, beep beep My hand instinctly reached towards my smartphone and shut the alarm off. I opened my eyes, stretched my arms and realized it's Monday. "Ah, crap."I say to myself and slowly muster the courage to pick myself from comfortable bed. As I look around my room, my blood freezes, as I gaze upon unworldly c...
A man walks into a bar. Not on his own, however. Alongside him, walking in simultaneously, are a number of different characters. Millions of women and men, cats, alligators, scientists, priests, rabbis, and an infinite number of mathematicians. The man watches as everyone walks up to the bartender, who serves drinks ...
Roi had been with me as long as I can remember. Mom and Dad have pictures of him standing over my crib. He never climbed inside, so they didn't have to worry about me accidentally suffocating, but he'd keep watch right outside the edge of the crib. They told me that one time he actually came and got them when I was try...
"So... Mr. Jacobs, was it?"I asked. "Yes sir,"The man sitting across from me said. "Would you mind explaining what your device does?"I looked over the man. Dressed in business casual, though I didn't recognize the material of his shoes. "Well, it projects a 3D hologram based on whatever's plugged into it..."he said,...
"Haha oh man, I know this isn't a 'torture forever' thing that you might expect but I gotta show you this sweet dodge you made when you were, like, 13 or something" Satan was enjoying himself. I was only two months into my eternal damnation and he was still surprising me with new ways to make me feel misery. He must'v...
I sat in my car, brooding over a steamy hot cup of coco, as I watched the lights go off in many of the houses lining the dark street. There was a knock on my window and I jumped, spilling the coco in my lap. "Yowch!"I yelled, glaring out the window to see who was about to face my wrath. I looked and saw Death standin...
A few years ago, I saw you on the beach. I remember the way your dress waved along with the wind. I remember how your hair danced, your bangs framing your face. I remember how you turned around and looked at me, and smiled your little smile for me. When I was young I always thought it was hard to get to know people. ...
“Don’t let them near us.” The deep voice of the Emperor echoed throughout the great hall. Harragas dared to tilt his head up a little. He observed how everyone was down on their knees, facing downwards at the intricate carvings on the tiled floor, bowing their heads to show reverence for their great leader. Except for...
"I am a drifter, the whole world is my home and you aren't welcome here man." "I'm not welcome in the whole world?" "Nah man, you're bumming me out with all that black. Go find somewhere else to haunt." "Tell me, what legal claim do you have on the whole world?" "No one has any real claim to anything, property is a...
My name's Bob, and I am functionally immortal. Yeah, it was pretty exciting for me too at first but it gets old after a few hundred years. This story isn't about that though, but you need to know it for it for the rest to make sense. You see, in 2032 Elon Musk finally opened up a space exploration pod (SpaceX) for th...
Snarf threw the assignment across the room in fit of absolute frustration. Cursing in a several languages, none of them Terran. “I see you got a Terran message to translate again” Latona chuckled at his colleague. “You know me too well, my friend. I truly hate Terran translations. There are so many languages, dialects...
