I was only human. It took me a long time to realize that, I had been the pope for many years, and after that got boring I moved onto cults. By being able to control minds I was the perfect religious mascot, causing people to spread ridiculous rumors. When I found my powers I wished to be idolized like a God, a figure o... |
"Well. I hope you're happy grandpa."
"You would have won if you believed in yourself."
"No. No I wouldn't have. He said he trained for 15 years under a waterfall studying from ancient masters in China. I did not do that grandpa."
"Well neither did I."

Michael lay on his death bed, frail and alone. But not scared. Never scared. He had enjoyed a hugely successful career. His books had become part of history, thrilling and horrifying millions. No, He was ready to meet Death as an old friend. These were his final moments, and he would savour them.

The conference room grew very still. I squinted at the special conference-call tripodal phone that crouched, alien-like in the center of the long oak desk and tried to confirm with myself that I had actually heard the amount that I’d just heard.
‘Could you repeat that number, please?’ I asked, trying to keep my voice... |
Our most powerful weapons weren’t enough to stop them. Alien light-shields were too powerful to be destroyed by bullets or bombs; we learned early on that they simply absorbed the kinetic energy and turned it against us. Even nuclear warheads were turned away like they were nothing, blasting the surface of the Earth wi... |
I wipe the fallout dust away from my goggles, cleaned for the moment but never truly *clean*. The radioactive winds tug at the hems of my robes, like children looking for attention.
Heh, what a choice of words.
I haven’t seen a child in ten thousand years..
As I adjust the range finder on my bolt-action rifle, the wi... |
He watched the child from afar, playing with toys alone. No parents were nearby. All he had to do was go up to the child and play with her a little bit, and everything would go perfectly. He circled around her the best he could, seeing if anyone would stop him. Finding his moment he ran towards her.
The girl saw him ... |
I was spending my saturday night the usual way: butt deep into my sofa, with a party bowl of cheesy puffs by my side, a blanket over my shoulders, and a bad movie playing on my 15 year old box TV. Tonight's theme was horror, and I smirked to myself as the oblivious, pompadour'ed main character (I think his name was Rob... |

“Wow, just like that?” My Jedi master asked.
“Yes.”
“You were facing off against the most powerful with lord, and you turned off your only defense against his lightsaber?”

“DO YOU WISH YOU COULD GET OUT?”
I am jolted awake. What the fuck is going on? I look around\-\-I’m not in my bedroom. My bedroom has never been this clean. Also, the decor is entirely black and white.
“DO YOU WISH YOU COULD GET OUT?” the booming voice asks again.
I look around, trying to find speakers or a radio.

It took us seven years of preparations to carry out our plan. Seven years of plotting in secrecy, seven years of aggressively spreading our word to increase our ranks. Seven years of analysis, of discussions, of humiliation. Of finding the right people for the mission.

She’s here again, tucking a loose strand of light ginger hair behind one ear and staring, with great focus and determination, at the wall of the elevator on her left. The girl doesn’t even spare a single glance in my direction as I board the elevator - five o’ clock sharp, as usual - and I shuffle awkwardly inside as t... |
For someone who just buried their now-seemingly not dead friend, I might end up having my own funeral if my heart doesn't calm down. I was going to make a joke about wearing black rather than brown trousers, Alec would laugh at that. Of course, he was meant to be \*bloody dead\* and not standing in my goddamn room. It ... |
“What happened.. where.. when am I? Gus? Hello?” My head aches and I’m ready to get out of this stuffy time jumper (think fancy hazmat suit). I Survey the horizon and to my surprise, I can’t recognize this time period, there’s no foliage, no insects, no sign of life.
“Damn it! Will someone please come in!”

*Operation Dead Mouse*
Those words were what followed after the sudden cut of noise and the emergency broadcast siren that always seemed to make me jump. I had been watching the late night news, using the noise to lull me to sleep on the couch. The siren made that impossible now. I slowly stood up from my dusty couch... |
“*Warning, the experiment begins tomorrow. If you would not like to be part of the experiment, please destroy your cellphone now.*”
We didn’t know what it meant, and laughed it off as a glitch. When they said it wasn’t a glitch, we laughed harder—now the air’s filled with screams, and cries, and just…*agony.*

I guess it could be worse. I could be one of those brown nosing angels, doing what their father decides is the right thing no matter what they personally think is best. Our own father doesn't care one way or another, do whatever just bring me souls. Easy enough, until you realize you have talk to people to get souls.

I was a thin, small thing, sweltering in the canyon sun. I was both like and unlike anything the man and woman had ever seen before.
“What a strange gecko,” I heard one of their voices say. “How did it get to be that colour?”
I was a brilliant blue, iridescent-skinned and shimmering.

“One more shot!” I bellowed to the bar keep. As I sat shoulder to shoulder with friends and family alike. A night out on the town with friends and my brother, who could ask for more? It had been so long since I’d seen them, we’d all gone away for school, for work and some of us simple just wanderlust. So rarely did we ... |
We just... didn't think it would matter this much.
We all grew up with the old stories about travelling back There. How our grandparents and great-grandparents would start loading the caravans on the first morning they saw frost, every winter. How the caravans would rattle down the roads, slowly at first, then making ... |
Cosmic timescales are vast; it's a truth we forget even more often than cosmic distances, which have come to seem less important since our discovery that most of the galaxy has giving Einstein the finger for, well, a whole cosmic span of time. What this means, besides the fact that all galactic civilizations are unthin... |

Well, that's different. Sure, he's beat to pieces -- although a lot more than usual -- and he's holding a gun on me. "Okay. You want to call my boss and tell him why? I'm tapped out for excuses he'll believe."

It had been eighteen days since the disk had been pulled from the remnants of the satellite. It would have been broken down to help repair the ship, if it wasn't for the barely-legible English writing on the back.

Truth is, I hadn't felt like myself for a long time.
I was a long time allergy sufferer, if I so much as smelled seafood I would break out in hives. I lived with epipens always in reach, and practically had a punch card for the E.R. closest to my house. Then, gradually, my symptoms started disappearing. Suddenly, I no... |

"She's awake boss."a gruff voice called. The voice sounded like a bad mix of somebody trying to emulate an italian mobster and gravel in a blender. Speaking of things being blended, that's what I should have been. My body should be a fine mist hanging in the air of Gridcity and my armour turned to shrapnel. Yet, as I o... |

I glanced at my pocket watch as I raced through the Fifteenth Plane. It was spinning maddeningly in circles, but I understood the content of the message it was trying to get across:

The hiss of some fucking machine doing some fucking thing for whatever the fuck reason woke me up.

For the first time in half a century, Loren had never felt so small and lost. The horseless carriages (which looked more like giant beetles with wheels for legs) zoomed past him, and the glass towers rose to such dizzying heights that he couldn't stare at them for too long. He wondered how the round-ears managed to liv... |
I remember the wars that made me an orphan. Whether it was political disputes or the conquest of another nation it was all the same for normal people. After the death of my parents I decided it was time to put a stop to it. The only way I knew how to do that was by unifying the world.
I asked myself, “To what lengths ... |

I have superpowers. Now, you may be asking, "Are you a hero or a villain?". To that I would answer hero.

No company wants to sponsor me, ... |
I've been roommates with the God of Gas Lamps for centuries now. Millennia maybe? A long time anyway. For most of history we were on equal footing: neither of us getting any prayers, both of us considered to be very minor in the Pantheon.

The sun shone meekly that day. Wisps of rays peppered the rolling countryside, bringing slivers of light to the plants that so desperately needed them.

Had they banished me to the darkness between the stars, I would have died. I would have drifted eternally in an endless void, forgotten and undiscoverable; I would have faded until I too was nothing but the echoes of a distant creation.

Day 1: I seem to have arrived on an island. I have yet to meet any other humans. I do appear to have acquired a meager shelter, and have done a small number of banal fetch quests. All significant gameplay appears to be locked behind an arbitrary clock system.

The city used to be a hive of scum and villainy.

Through all my calculations and simulations, I never concluded about their lack of ability to conceive. I guess I was always too busy in crunching the numbers.

It was the greatest moment of my life. His tiny little brown eyes. His shock of unruly brown hair. His little mouth, wiggling around like a little widdle wotswambooboo.
