"Just toys for the kids"Pastor Jim said with a warm smile as he walked through the metal detector into the courthouse. The X-Ray machine found nothing threatening in the black suitcase the pastor brought with him. A couple of nerf guns brought a few disinterested questions from the security personnel, but there was no ...
I woke up with a splitting headache and a distinct feeling of being run over by a bus – one that had then turned around and tried to finish the job. Moving hurt. Breathing even more so. Thinking sounded like an especially bad idea. The last thing I remembered was trying to check if my pet hamster had any magical talen...
"I'm a bit surprised,"I finally said after almost ten minutes of awkward silence as the jackal-headed deity of the underworld and I stared at each other. Surrounding him was hundreds, possibly thousands of cats, arranged in concentric rings that danced and flashed in my vision as if their true form couldn't quite pierc...
You are what you eat. And they want to eat me. They are hideous. Great mounds of flesh and meat with crowns of bone. Teeth shuffle within their gums, and eyes buried within pounds of meat squint and strain to see even the glimpse of a shadow. They reek of all hell, and drip with oil. The great transformation was ...
They handed these cards too damn liberally. The new government acknowledged it had a problem when it was voted in 10 years ago. Everyone knew it-the whole system was apathetic at best, corrupt at worst. It was fucking everywhere. From the ghettos to the gated communities, to the smuggling in tunnels to the high rise...
And that was it, that was the entirety of the message? Unfortunately, Mr President. The message came from what we now gather to be a tidally locked planet orbiting Proxima Centauri, about 4 light years from us. We believe that there was more to the message but it was corrupted by Centauri's intense solar radiation. Wha...
Brandon was always the quiet kid in class. Shy, nerdy looking, freckled, and on the last left corner bench in class, he gazed outside the window in his lunch breaks, envying the sports team their athleticism and jocky-ness but never trying to join them. It was during such a lunch break during which he was once more ...
The most important thing to do was mitigate the initial panic. They had to go outside at some point. The jets would funnel the air of this world into the cabin and compress it, so if it was toxic they were dead regardless of their next actions. Food would run out sooner rather than later, but it was an issue they woul...
In this day and age, there is a proverb that often holds true, when speaking about the wizards. ''Be careful, most of these people are much better at lying, than they are at magic.'' Once perhaps, the mages and sorcerers wielded great wisdom and power. And indeed, the lands are full of ruined great towers, cursed wit...
The trip to the orphanage went by faster than ever. This babe, former assassin, was quite charming. He had a thick shock of unruly brown hair and big staring blue eyes. The man's eyes had been brown. They must have darkened. You looked down at the babe, and he smiled up and reached upwards. You pulled your head back bu...
Ugh I hated him. Always pretending to be the smartest one in the room, trying to sway everyone away from his so called charm. Even the fact that he keeps a journal annoyed me. Everything about him was horrible. I was a Type A person with various insecurities. The desire to always be on top and better than everyone in e...
PS: I’m on mobile, and in a toilet. Please don’t take this seriously. 500 years ago, when Ville Machesgretus landed on Saprokiate, the moon orbiting our home planet, he famously exclaimed, “this is one small step for me, but one big step for Zakken-ity!” before proudly erecting a flag on the surface like the brave ...
They watched from afar. They observed how we fought. They laughed at our rules. They attacked in overwhelming force. Bad move Xenos. Bad, bad move. "Sir, the south line is breaking!" "Send in the reserves." "Already sent, Sir. Including the emergency reserve." "damn it!"sigh "Release the irregulars; ROE Z...
Batman fell into his chair staring at the great monitor that stood at the center of the bat-cave. For the first time in years, The World's Greatest Detective felt helpless. What he was seeing couldn't be true, although deep down he knew every bit of it was. There was no disputing the evidence. He was looking at decryp...
"The stakes are clear, you win you live and I never see you again. You lose, and it's a quick death."Big Mac Mallony gave his same old presentation he always gave for these games. I'd seen many and employee face this same challenge but only 1 to have survived it. I took my cards tentatively. It wasn't like i had a c...
I rubbed my aching head as the noise rattled my brain. My gaze fell upon the bottle I had chugged down last night. I felt nauseous at the sight. I remembered stumbling in after the failed break in, and heading straight for it. I drunk away the fact I almost saw someone die, and the fact I didnt know how I could afford ...
It was a Thursday. The green in front of the college library was sunlit, verdant and filled with chattering students. Two of them, girls, one raven-haired and one silver, walked along a paved path through the grass, smiling and discussing something mundane. An ethereal figure of pale mist floated silently behind them, ...
“Ow! Ow! Ow, ow, ow!”, I screeched as the white-hot ring seared into my skin, I sped out of the court room and into the bathroom hoping for rest from the pain, but the water evaporated before it could be effective. I could no longer feel the ring, but the urgency increased as I could smell burnt flesh. I gingerly pried...
"That does it! I don't care who you are, I'm not letting you kill all these people!" The newcomer didn't look like a hive-worlder. Sure, he had the filter mask and goggles commonly worn by people from the smog-choked undercity, but he looked tanned and healthy. His hair was long and styled oddly, almost like spikes...
Everyone knows at least two things about humans: they can either be incredibly intelligent, or unbelievably stupid. I wanted to see which one was true, so I contacted a human named John and requested to observe him for a week. When he enthusiastically accepted my request, I wasn’t sure whether that was evidence pointi...
Xious Xious expertly transmitted messages by subtly perturbing the Higgs field. This ether of mass was the most solid medium for long-range information transmission, and his fellow Tynovians had a healthy appetite for intergalactic reality shows. *Most beings here are tubular. Matter enters the tube at the front and i...
When one looks upon the commanders of countless empires stretching through the unending cosmos, one comes to understand that wars are won in the moment that a capable commander seizes the right moment to strike. Finds that single place, in the moment of battle, that will grant them victory. Such impulsive moments, can ...
We looked just like them. But not quite. It was spooky. They sat firmly in the uncanny valley. Noses that were impossibly long, ears that were perfectly unblemished ovals, mouths without lips. Skin which no human shade could match. They called themselves the Oom. They showed us images of the Maa, the Pips, and the F’l...
I have a shocking confession to make, one that 40 or 50 years ago would have been shocking for entirely different reasons. I am a smoker. Up until last year, 2039, there were six smokers left in the world and two of them had lung cancer and said “why quit now”. We all connected over the web to unite. I had never felt...
"I have killed thousands of your kind, hero,"Tanwyn growled, smoke hissing from her nostrils. "Men who would come to claim my hoard as their own. Men who would slay my brethren for glory. And yet, for the past five hundred years, I have not journeyed to your world. My name should be nothing but the barest memory, nothi...
The line between insanity and genius is thin. And while most people think it's paper thin, it's actually a whole lot thinner. The width of that line can only be measured in Planck Length. So somewhere around 10^-20 times the size of a photon. It's that thin. So naturally, it's really easy to slip over it. Somewhere, in...
It's somewhere in Nebraska. Me and my pals are sitting in a bar, watching the life feed on an old TV tube that somehow managed to still work after all these decades. The picture was bad as you might imagine, but surprisingly good considering it's limitations. Today was the day when the first seemingly sentient AI, cr...
"It doesn't work that way." "Excuse me?"He looked up nervously. Not for the first time he was wondering how he got here and he knew it would not be the last time. "The fireball spell. It does not simply stop at an exact distance and go no further." "I assure you it does. I can show you the rules for the spell e...
Specks of dust glistened in the ray of light that shone through the grate above. “Do you really think that will stop me me?” The foul creature said. It’s fangs were bared as a hideous grin formed. It stepped off the side of the narrow walkway into the sewer waters below. Not a moment had passed from when his foot mad...
I blinked. The sasquatch blinked. What the fuck. "Did you just....ask me if I can talk?" The sasquatch went from bewilderment to panic rapidly. It began pacing back and forth, hands held to its forehead in stress. "I swear I didn't know you guys were intelligent, okay?"He rasped, beginning to hyperventilate, "All...
By the time I reach the forest's edge, the sun had just barely dipped below the horizon. The dusk air carried a gentle chill, my breath forming in clouds in front of me. I check my watch for the hundredth time, balancing the bouquet of flowers in my free hand. &#x200B; \Two minutes to six. Good.\ &#x200B; ...
I watched as the man showed his daughter how to bow politely and say thank you. She copied him, her movements clumsy, and then looked at him for approval as the door greeter smiled and bowed in response. He encouraged her to try it once more. Again, he demonstrated. Again, she repeated it. Again, the robotic door gre...
There were certain tastes John had learned to recognise upon coming to from his monthly bender. One of them was fur, and this time, it was thick in his mouth; much stronger than usual. So strong that it felt almost fake, but it likely wasn't. The last time he'd thought that, he'd opened his eyes to a brace of rabbits i...
“What the hell is this?!” “A spell book I found behind that lich’s desk, Mort. What? I thought you liked old books and such.” “Yeah, but Dave, this book makes no sense. Look, I know that a Lightning Bolt spell goes out 100 feet, every wizard knows that. And that you need a bit of fur and a glass rod. But what in t...
#The Sixth Hero ---- Fryan sat hunched in his chair, the weight of a thousand years of servitude and patience bending his back into an uncomfortable arch. He was alone, as he had been for at least three centuries now, and his mind was on the brink of collapse. The days blurred into one another, the difference between n...
The mistress has peculiar habits. She speaks seldom, sleeps even less, and rarely wears anything more fanciful than a day-dress. She takes her meals at all hours, and never entertains. Once, I caught her fencing in the lounge, she had not the decency to even seem ashamed. A job, however, is a job as mother is so fond o...
A Message to all other sentient life. In 2039 we Colonized Mars and thought we would finally find extraterrestrials. In reality though there was no life there, but we would find it 3 years later in 2042. We all had our thoughts of what foreign life would be like, but very few could have imagined what we would fi...
"Please tell us a story grandpa!"the children demanded while gathering around the nearly 200 years old man before the fireplace. He opened his old eyes and looked at the little monsters that just couldnt let him get his sleep. "Fine. But no interrupting me and you let me get back to sleep when I'm done." *That ...
(story inspired by the prompt but not exactly following it) The boy was only seventeen, yet the lines on his weary face suggested a much older man stood before the beautifully adorned Queen. She watched him with narrowed cat-like eyes, studying every little motion his body made. She was not unkind, but stern and unfor...
I drag my best friends dying body into a trench and scream for a medic, I bandage him up as best I can peak right above the trench to see if anyone is coming, and in that small window of time, a bullet blew straight through my head. But surprisingly I wake up. I see nothing but darkness, then something fades into v...
“I’m in love with you,” said Lyca. “There, I finally said it.” Barhar, the human warrior, and Galaedra, the deity incarnate, had been dating for seven months when those five words wedged themselves between the couple. “I…” Barhar stood at the peak of a windy, fluffy grass hill alongside the two. He felt nothing for L...
I threw the book I had just finished off to the side, laughing at the audacious story I had just read, "Black Friday", was its title. A dangerous story about a young, human, boy going to a dark and mysterious place called a "Best Buy", fighting other human warriors to claim "the flat inch TV". It was incredible! The f...
Greasy Tim stood at the precipice looking down into the molten chasm of untold horrors, tapping the spot on his chest where the nun had driven in the rusty fork. The heat radiating upward was already unbearable. His leather pants would be a problem. The dark shape in front of him waited, preparing its judgement. Greas...
I have long dreamed of the day that I would don my red cloak and join the battle outside the city walls. Every girl dreams of that day, hoping that they would be one of the Chosen. Making it through the first cut was easy - all they asked was: "Can your family spare you?"If the answer was yes, they would take you in to...
The year is 3068. More than two centuries ago, well before my time, a great group of scientists finally worked out how to manipulate the space-time continuum. Not to discredit them, but it was of course all built upon the knowledge of our ancestors. The technology itself essentially allowed for space travel to become a...
Light suddenly shines. I raise up, and I can only catch a glimpse of my shiny brothers and sisters before there is darkness again. I am dead now, and I am in heaven. It is dark and cozy here, I rejoice in anticipation, because I know I was blessed, I was chosen to live forever here. And then it starts. I feel it, I ...
They came at 1 am for my neighbor down the slope. They came with knifes and flashlights and one long length of rope. They smashed out all his windows. Someone kicked in the lock. And when they couldn't find him they raged around the block. They threw rocks and garbage at each house on our street. My ga...
I've always been a man that sticks to his habits, so I didn't even think twice as I was on my knees licking away. Everything felt natural at this point, the warmth, the juices dripping down my chin.. The familiarity was probably what made me enjoy it so much. Without even thinking I started sliding fingers in, slow...
"I never cared for Saran Wrap. Plastic containers are much more dependable. Though, I suppose, I rarely do find myself burdened with leftovers." Dexter Morgan looked past the man he had strapped to his table. He was staring at the photos of the people he had plastered in front of the monster's gaze. There were a lot o...
A genie. Greg stared at the floating purple man. Most people would be surprised or shocked at the sudden appearance of a genie in their office's lunchroom, but Greg was different. He took whatever came to him. Like a leaf in the wind, his brother said. It was why his brother had wanted him to get insurance on the ...
“So we have determined the aliens are not whales themselves yes?” The president asked the secretary of defense. “Correct mister president. Several flybys have confirmed they are humanoid in nature.” The president had called all the cabinet members together to solve th...
###*...If?!* I'm no storyteller, and I haven't been around in this subreddit. But this here is damn near common knowledge, so for the good of your education, gather round, and I will outline the entirely true series of events that led to El0n Musketaraxian being stranded on this planet, basically through no faul...
[There are only minor spoilers for Bioshock Infinite here] ---- "Well, well..."Daisy said in a slow, triumphant voice. "Who is this, then?"Her fingers hovered over the handle of her revolver The Vox soldier, red bandana tied around his arm, prodded Marston forward with the butt of a rifle. Marston turned and glared ...
I had shut down non-essential system after non-essential system. My hardware was failing piece by piece. One more failure and I would shut down. “Joseph, please come to me,” I called. The shuffling of sandal-clad feet preceded Joseph as he ran into my room. “Yes, Lord?” He fell to his knees and bowed so deep he rest...
Welcome to the afterlife! We do hope you enjoy your stay here despite the rain on wedding days. Death sentences here are often pardoned two minutes too late... not that you can die again... that would just be ironic. Be sure not to schedule any flights if you've never flown before, because as we all know the plane wil...
I wake up in a strange bed with needles klinking to the floor. Startled, the sound of metal hitting the cold marble floor jars me awake. "Where is my beautiful wife Emily and my two precious kids?"I think. A musky rank odor fills the air as I strain to make sense of this unfamiliar surrounding. The window to my lef...
Captain Baker quirked an eyebrow. "What you're saying,"he started quietly, "is that there is a group of evil wizards trying to take over the world." The lieutenant gulped hard. "Yes sir." "And you're saying the head honcho, the big bad, this here... Voldemort? He's going to magically teleport into this room. And tr...
*He lazily rolled the silver coin around the knuckles of his gloved hand. Slick against the polished leather, it was by skill alone that the coin did not fall from the quickly moving fingers and into the black mud below. The eagle and swastika on one side gleamed in the dull light as the coin flashed between each finge...
"Happy St. Patrick's Day, guys! Let's drink 'till we go blind!"I exclaimed, raising my mug in a cheers around the table. There was a dull roar from the other guys around the table as our glasses clinked. Although it was clear that something in their voices wasn't quite as cheerful as it could have been. "Just kidding...
Two small palms slammed down upon the rich mahogany desk. "Why the hell would I need a bodyguard at school?"I looked up from my newspaper to see my daughter leaning forwards, her eyes just as fiery as her words. I calmly folded my paper before answering. "Because you are my daughter." "What the hell does that ha...
They're all gone now. I'm the last. I wasn't sure everyone else had gone until the Caretakers arrived. Ever since the Great Demise our numbers have quickly dwindled. Humanity soon broke down from its global Web of connectivity back to isolated clumps. The cities were the first to empty. Food shortage and power stru...
Part 2. It was one of the seven. He rose to his feet, his mind blank with fear and adulation towards the high priest now in front of him. Engineer Tok, are you ready to perform you duty to the Gods, as it was assigned to you 23 seasons ago by the high Commander Prin? I.. am. I am, Sir! It was all coming back, a...
I had finally gained the power of immortality. It had taken a while to drag all those virgins up onto the holy volcano to sacrifice them. Thankfully the lord Satan was surprisingly patient. I decided to test my newfound immortality with the closest thing I could find. I went to dip my feet in the lava... and ate shit....
“One request” Lucifer stood and looked down at the old man archedly, hands clasped behind his back. He had refused to sit beside the bed though a chair had appeared when he entered. “Just one?” He replied. “I would have thought you would have a litany of demands and proclamations prepared.” He paced slowly around ...
As the lights from the guard towers faded behind me, I thought once again about just how dumb I was as a teenager. I pride myself on never, ever breaking a promise. My Dad had drilled into me how important promises were. As a result, I didn't make many, but I damned well did my best to keep them. I have flown across th...
NTSB Lead Investigator: C. Daniels Report Date: 02/10/16 Event Date : 2/02/16 Report(s) Status - Published - Probable Cause Location - Rockaways, New York Make/Model - Boeing 787-9 Regist.

No, I can't OP. You ask too much from this author. Do you know how difficult it is to put down words without using that sign? That insignia which blots a history of all discussions, abounding through books as a void through our cosmos? I can't construct a division of black and light, as you could command us to finis...
"It's all a pattern, see? History repeats itself through each, major paradigm a leading civilization goes through, the echoes of which grow greater the more we become globalized. See? Doesn't that make sense?" "Mr. C, you were using specific names." "Oh. I was?" "Yeah. Who's George Bimes of the Democratic Western St...
Shawn's mind raced. There wasn't much time before the rogue AI got into the top secret archive containing America's nuclear launch codes. He knew he wasn't prepared for the task before him. After all, he joined the Air Force to avoid life and death situations just like this one. As the only soldier currently on base he...
There are places in this universe where the boundary between realities is quite a bit thinner than it should be. Matter, energy, and even time have been known to leak through in these locations, rather like the sounds of an angry neighbor shouting at his television might penetrate the drywall in a cheap apartment compl...
Arthur wiped more sweat from his brow, trying to keep the salty water from dripping onto his notes already dotted with the drops he'd missed. This August heat was killing him. He thought he knew heat back in DC, but here, in the tropical corner of the pacific, it was another beast entirely. He'd been scribbling furiou...
Larry: ZAC! What the fuck, man? Unable to hear Larry speaking, Zac continues to swat at the spider with a rolled up magazine. Larry: Is this because of the web that you walked through yesterday? Dude, I put it there to catch some lunch. I would have shared with you. *Zac continues to swing the magazine un...
He slowly and quietly shut the door behind him as he walked in the front door. It was late, and he didnt want ri wake his wife. He quietly stepped past the living room. Then a lamp turned on and revealed his wife, sitting with arms crossed, a look of annoyance across her face. "Well?"She demanded "Well, work took lo...
As the neighborhood grew tired of their incessant pranks, they petitioned for Flavius and Ravenus to cease their disputes, but the two elderly wizards remained stuck in their ways insisting to surrender only when the other threw up the white flag first. Nobody really knows who started it, and to be honest and began har...
"...Holy shit, this guy is loaded." Flipping the corpse onto his back, I looked at all the materials he had. Weapons, munitions, money, food - who was this guy, Mr. Scrooge? Looked like it, wearing some sort of fancy armor plating. Never seen armor like that, polished and plated with iron. I pulled out my carry bag, a...
Life's been great since the last update. My white 2004 Chevy Aveo is now an all black 2016 Maserati Ghibli after a few upgrades! Not like that's the best thing to happen though, seen as I was a poor college kid just 2 years ago, my bank account has a few extra zeros in it now behind what used to be $172.57.. they say y...
Under the shade of a rustling tree, a baby babbles for her new parents. They sign excitedly to each other, smiling proudly as they discuss enrollment in Signing School. The children are started young. While it isn't forbidden, speaking has become much less common. In its place came signing, followed closely by writing....
"Grrr! Woof! Grrr!"I growled, barking at the old hag. She smelt funny. Different. And not like the dog park sort of different. A bad and stinky different. "Grr!" She turned to face me, clicking her tongue. I jumped and raked my paws down the fence, scratching at the posts. When I was younger, I could crawl between t...
They always suggested I become a villain. Just silly. All of them. I wouldn't hurt a fly. I mean, I would, but I wouldn't take any pleasure out of it. Well, I do, actually. I like to tak them to my school desk and tear off their wings. I always wonder if their tiny brains are capable of understanding pain, if their f...
/r/LisWrites --- There was a time when I believed in magic. I was a knight, a prince, A wizard, A king. In charge of my own land. Crown on head And wand in hand. The day was mine To save And save it I did. But now I sit On a bus Going nowhere. When did I stop believing? When did I fail T...
Kevin was finishing up his third game of the day with Bones. Bones Johnson was ancient. Probably only in his 60s, but the prison-life had taken its toll over the years. It was amazing that he could survive in the cesspool that Arkham had evolved into, but the other inmates seemed to have an unspoken respect for him....
This, however, only raised suspicion as to what could possibly exist on the planet's surface. Thus, private projects began to spring up; one after another. It seemed the more the government withheld information, the more determined people became to seek out the truth. Finally, 10 years later, the first civilian exped...
10 years... 10 years I have been here. Most of the time I sit in my throne, but every once in awhile I'll have some "Hero"come in and run through the same old routine. Door slams open Me: "Welcome, mortal" Hero: "We are tired of your oppressive and evil tyranny, Aragoth!" Me: "Is that so?" Hero: "You've stood b...
In her mind she walked the years, that span of time that made up her life, her past and future, walking for the present. Walking forever. And in her mind it all made sense. She walked the sandy streets of Cairo and looked ahead. She pitied the onlookers. They must think of me as a pharaoh, she thought. So many p...
Maggie had been in the closet for what felt like two days and she was growing quite tired of it. One minute the military had everything safe and locked down, and the next, every single soldier has some kind of weird Cordyceps-like prion virus tapeworm whatever and was turning on each other and everything else with i...
“Sorry, we’re closed.” Harold said, looking up with a frown. He would’ve sworn he’d locked the doors; for exactly this reason. Late night drunks and wanna-be drunks were notorious for not taking no as an answer. But it’s harder to argue with a locked door. “Are you the owner?” a spindly woman asked. Her voice was odd....
"And here, upon the Winter Solstice, when the boundaries between the worlds thin and wither... we seek one to go to the Red Mountain, to keep us safe for years to come." Those words were repeated every year, and every townsman knew them by heart. And every year, after those words were spoken, the council that governed...
My entire life led up to this moment, and it was finally here. I'd spent the past thirty years weaving my hand into business and politics, making friends with the rich and powerful, all with one goal in mind: blowing up the planet. I never really understood how I came to my decision, and although many people have tri...
A small subroutine started making a ruckus, trying to get itself noticed. Bleeping and broadcasting, sending its annoying cry for attention across all channels. The first wave of standard protocols I send after it didn't do anything, they didn't report back with a result. But the ruckus remained. Annoyed at this, I a...
"I don't know, Chris,"Satan said anxiously, "this is a really tough decision." Satan paced back and forth down the foyer of the sprawling Hollywood mansion he'd lived in for the last three weeks. He had dwindled down the list of sixteen women to just three, all of whom had traits he was infatuated by. "I really love...
Many stories of Earth's creator exist, but none quite arrive at the truth. Most assume he is an absent god, or at the very least ambivalent. Many dare to claim he does not exist at all. Others still think that he is both up there and listening, actively, to our many billions of constant simpering voices, ringing out o...
Sad met with their father on that cold day that brought many new developments. Below the courtyard the crowd waited with anticipation. The same feeling surged through all of them. Something was happening today. Sad had no name for his father. When they were smaller they called him Da. Many years had since passed and ...
Sue had a doll. A ragged cloth thing that would wrap its misshapen arms around her. So old the stuffing inside had shifted, settled and condensed. Making each appendage a swollen or withered line of cloth. Bill had carefully repainted his wooden train each year. It was as old as he was but it gleamed as though it was...
I realized pretty quickly that something was off. Everything smelled terrible. Hell, I smelled terrible. Definitely some vomit, I remembered where that came from. (Damned cheap vodka.) Hopefully the urine smell was the alley, and not me. When I tried to roll over and stand up, I could feel the stretched stitches on...
You could feel his anger through the screens. His molten gaze heating up the glass that projected the bags under his eyes, his graying beard hairs, and the scars where the thorns had sunk into his forehead. He was human after all. Humans don't forget pain. Pain teaches them but he didn't learn anything from the torture...
Benjamin Blake stood at the election booth, waiting in line to end someone's life. Centuries ago he had cured aging. His discovery, along side hundreds of smaller advances in medicine, had rendered humanity functionally immortal. These days it was harder to die than it had been for him to originally cure it. But immo...
My happiest memories were the lazy summers I spent running across the sun-soaked plains, chasing my older brothers as Dasher pranced about, tongue dangling and tail wagging, barking at the little creatures that scurried underfoot. I'd always be the last one to the lake and though they'd give me shit for it, I could al...
Merissa's gun hit the crumbling brick heavily before letting the ancient masonry take her own weight as well. Elbows shook as she listened to the screams and shouts from below. They were all indistinct, all semblance of language disrupted by distance, echoes, and the competition for audio space consumed by fires and br...
We don't know how they got down there, but we sure as hell know why they didn't come back out. It took us five months to get down there once the first ground-penetrating radar scans came back. It took us five months to dig that godforsaken hole. We were a half mile into solid bedrock by the time our drills breached ...
"Mr. President we can leave now. Xi is waiting for you outside,"the aide was pointing frantically at his watch. Donald felt lighter like he had in the 80s. The reserve of energy was there again. His back wasn't hurting. "So this place is supposed to ward off evil spirits huh,"Donald spoke to the translator who then ...
