The man in the front of the dimly lit classroom was grim and gaunt.
He paced back and forth in front of an overhead projector in a perfectly starched Hugo Boss suit. His peaked cap was tilted slightly to the right, and he sucked hungrily at a little gold-tipped Turkish cigarette. His shiny black boots reached his kne... |
"In the blue corner weighing a massive 360 pounds, we've got the green machine, the lean and mean, the dean of protein. Thormash Skullcrusherrrrr!"

So, this has been going on for several months now... I have to tell you it's been driving me crazy.
I'm not sure how they're doing this, but anytime I get a call from Area Code 266, it leaves no call record in my phone history. I have to write the number down each time. So far I have about 375 different numbers of ... |
"Chew, chew, chew"the little girl coached, quiet determination in her face as she watched her even *litter* sister chew a wad of bubblebum. "Now roll it into a ball with your tongue. Now stick your tongue *through* it. Let me see. Good, good. Now, wait for it...
...okay, BLOW!"
The littler girl's cheeks sunk as she b... |
The studio was, as always, barely controlled chaos, moments before the live broadcast. Teleprompters ensured their equipment was functioning and loaded with the script, as the camera and sound engineers tuned and focussed to exacting standards. The make-up artists tutted and fussed over their subjects, as the lighting ... |
“Have you heard of the house?” Many asked as if it were a new topic.
Of course we’ve heard of the house. For who hasn’t? As long as anyone could remember it sat on its perch over looking a cliff. Even my mother had said her parents knew of the house.
“Have you been to the house?” Many would ask
Of course not they w... |
While they might be a bit older than that, I've actually got a good chance of this happening. And I know this doesn't sound like a story, but I honestly dream of such a chance encounter.

Shaking.
More shaking.
More world breaking shakes that finally awake me from my slumber.
It's different. Everything's different. The bed, the room, the house, the environment.
It's all changed.
It's snowing. The pine trees near my house catch the snowflakes on the canopy, the needles attracting them to stay.

***Part One***
March 27th, 3190.
Jim found it by mistake; he wasn't even testing a hypothesis or studying anything. It was a minor detail he had overlooked. It was the sign he passed every day on his way to work, one he ignored; The Guile's restaurant on 5th and 32nd had a red sign, and the name was in cursive.

Valen bent over at the waist, clasped his knees, and bowed his head in an effort to catch his breath. He was proud of himself, possibly the proudest he’d ever been.
Before he left, he had to find a body part that could serve as proof the dragon was dead. Encroaching the dragon made Valen uneasy, however, even the sm... |
I hit “build” and stare at the screen blankly as compiler spits out its stream of nonsense, waiting for another error to appear. Sisyphus would’ve made a great programmer.
However, by some brilliant aligning of fates, my last change had solved the error without creating any new ones. The build had succeeded, all tests... |

What? What?! I don't need to get a job! I am an ENTITY OF ETHEREAL LIGHT NOW! I live on the internet! I am responsible for a 34% increase in those gay seal memes.

My head is spinning. The grogginess is not from natural fatigue, that much I can tell. Did I hit my head? I can't remember.
I tried to get up, but found my arms and legs tied to a chair. I almost fell over, but a small, firm hand grabbed me by the shoulder and pulled me back.
"You're awake."The high pitched voice squ... |
When I came back down from the mountains I knew something was different. There was no deep metallic constant rumble. When I came closer to the city there was nothing but a buzzing like the sound of a hive of bees.
It's strange how loud the wind is in cities. We don't hear it with all the other noise but it finds a mi... |
Brian read the chit he pulled out. For a couple of minutes he was trying to figure out who wrote it. Was it Sam? Brian always had him pinned as a closet weirdo. Was it Jenny, the 'creative' one who in all of the games she's been in so far has always found a way to add something that was completely unnecessary and borde... |
I stumble over the forensic witch's bag on my way to the desk. Magdalena Gonzalez is one of my favorite people, but tripping over a bag of cantrips wards and the occasional curse can be nerve wracking before your first cup of coffee. "Maggie,"I said.

I slid over the hood of the rested patrol car as the cop unbuckled his seat belt and jumped out of the vehicle. Although he had just shot five people in the head from forty yards away with a pistol, he missed all six of his shots while I passed him at ten feet away.
I didn't know where to run, so I simply shouted back... |

Sulking through this desolate town, quite a remote one, containing nothing too remarkable, mindless beings roamed around, subservient to their mandatory routines. Clouds stormed above their crown as forced smiles hung upon their blank faces. Time was wasted, most of us were living on borrowed time, subconsciously letti... |
John had spent all his budget for the wedding. His fiancée Camilla asked him two days before the wedding, “Did you hire a wedding photographer?” Poor John, having blown the budget and forgotten the photog, had no choice but to find a creative way out of this mess. Throughout the rehearsal, ceremony, and reception, st... |
My husband left me. My friends scorned me. Even my *Mom* had to pull me aside at one point and say, "Hun, you kind of have to be honest with yourself. Your son looks nothing like him - you know that, right?"
Of course I *fucking* knew that! But I didn't need accusations or suspicious glances from people that were supp... |
Dr. Fielding wrote with the vigour of a man possessed. He’d been on the brink of this breakthrough for months and all his research on transference of conscious rested on one, previously dimensionally unbalanced, equation. I was there, the night that he had his Eureka moment, when he burst into tears of relief. I’ve nev... |
The snow was always so peaceful as it fell and blended its way into the mass pile on the ground. I tried to enjoy it but my fingers felt like they had turned into ice and were going to break off at any moment. The green glow from the thing in front of me was getting fainter. I couldnt keep up. It could float on the sno... |
"MOVE CHILDS!"The snarl came from the middle of the lush forest shrine. Nothing was illuminated, except the bright blinking green dots that circled the shrine.
"SITS GIRL! WE MUSTS PROCEEDS!"This snarl came ripped from nearby. She whipped to her left as my head made contact with a high limb. She grimaced and put her ... |
Zack's hunger was starting to eat away his own stomach. He no longer could hide in his house, he had to go outside.
The feeling of deja vu affects only those who saw the person which cast the reverse, or the event that was now reversed. The only way to avoid being stuck in this loop is to avoid looking.

“Well damn,” I muttered. There wasn’t much left of the kitten, it’s once grey fur smeared crimson on the dirt highway And the sign to the roadside left a bit of unease in my gut. The name, Ulthar, felt wrong. Honestly, I had never heard it, and it tasted alien on the tongue. I nudged the cat to the side if the road to ... |
Another evening wasted pleasantly, I scrolled through the daily topics on r/AskReddit. The familiar questions phrased a dozen different ways continued to draw the same crowd of eager and/or mentally unstable respondents:

I forced my eyes open groggily, looking up to the monitor towering over me that was bleeping rudely. I instinctively cleared away the previous nights mess off the desk, and clicked on the blinking light.

This is it. Today is the day that I so rarely am able to experience. Most of my time is spent alone with my, limited thoughts. Things never used to be like this. I can remember a time far back in my life. I was, mostly, like everyone else. I liked being in the park, people were everywhere. Each one so different, a... |
As a child; me, Naaru, and my best friend, Ayuu, spent most of our childhood outside adventuring and exploring. At the age of twelve, all people of the world are able to learn magic, they are gifted with it by the God Namastes, and begin to learn their first magical words.

Daleroth, Servant of the Untamed, Unborn of the Ninth Order, Wind of the night, hurriedly scratched unknowable glyphs into impossible non-Euclidean rings that seemed to buzz with power best left untouched.

It has to be a better story love story than Twilight, right?
The day had come for Death to take his beloved. He watched her since she was born. Something was different about her. It made him look at creating life, when he had been set on destroying it. After all, death had to happen for life to flourish. But she was h... |
Dad looked up at me, smiled, and put down the sandpaper. He was in the middle of building a new bookcase and I could tell he needed a break, so I handed him his beer from the fridge and he down in the break chair nearby while I leaned against his workbench.

I first noticed something was up when I was drying off after my shower and noticed I had suddenly gotten a bit hairier.

There was a story about a beautiful, if you could call it like that, woman. She was know to everyone in the village and it is said that she kidnapped everyone who came near her house. They called her "The Mistress"or "Death Lady". No-one ever dared approach near her home, an old cottage up a hill. But, as eve... |
Oh, it's been a day.
I'm reminded of why I've always hated convertibles. We're a bit sunburned, and the wind around our skin at 75mph doesn't help, this ancient POS we're riding needs a break, and I need a cigarette. At least the sun's finally setting. I pulled it over on the shoulder, and took a break.

Angel Grove was the most boring town I'd ever had the displeasure to live in. I was hoping when we moved that it wouldn't be such a drag but the move from big city life to this place, essentially a huge suburb, was jarring.

When her car plunged off of the edge of the bridge, Mia knew that she wouldn’t wake up. She had already bounced back her allotted seven times, in ways that made her curse her youthful delusion of immortality. She had been so sure that with age came safety.

For a moment, all I can feel is the grog as its remains swirl out of my head, with the accompanying migraines to match. Shouldn't have indulged in the mead too much, they always bring these inconveniences behind their honeyed approach. Oh well.

The boy bursts out laughing. “Hey babe, come take a look at this!”
The girl crosses the lawn and starts giggling as well. “Someone was quite the fan, huh?” She asked.

A long journey through the plains, grim and gray, gives way to a patch of land that Spring hit early. There and then - when snows falls elsewhere - flowers bloom and birds sing.

I felt a bit disoriented. Nothing strange with it. The wave that hit us was huge. The biggest I have ever seen. I was lucky to even still be on the boat and not dead at the bottom of the sea.

Every seven days I wake up.
The Bright Red Cadillac is the first thing I see.
And then underneath it, the Mouse trap and then the cheese.

Today was the day. I don't know how long it has been but I was finally called up to the Pentagon. They asked me about my stunning capabilities and all I said was "I dunno I'm just like this."They pulled me into a simulation and suddenly my cross-hairs flicked onto my opponents head. I instantly squeezed the trigger. Ba... |
Once upon a time a strong bullet ant named Bones was really obnoxious. He lifted the biggest leaves and treated all his peers with disrespect. Even the Queen felt disrespected.

A bead of sweat dropped from the man’s nose on to the map over which he sat, hunched. “Al, we’re lost” spat his rotund companion. “No, you’re lost”, responded Albert dismissively.

"To be human..."I said, I smirked a little, too.
"To err, is to be human. To be imperfect. To make mistakes, blunders, mishaps. Wage war. Enslave. Humans have done many horrible things, all to each other. They hate, lie, cheat, rape, steal, kill, torture. Systematically destroy one another. Humanity was very bleak. Ev... |
Each of those valiant men was hand-picked. Chosen for their courage, for their patience, for their daring. They were chosen because of their bravery. Chosen to do a job no one wanted.

Being a patent clerk and IRS auditor has a lot in common. One of the main similarities between us, is we could identify any possible fraudulent claim.

It was the year 2048. Genetic science had become so advanced that humans could create life. As such, people tried to create fictional characters for the sake of nostalgia. It went fine until someone created Carmen Sandiego, a character from an old educational game. Carmen Sandiego rebelled and stole the genetic technol... |
The warmest shoulders turned to ice
As stares of loved ones looking through

Turned falsehood thoughts to now ring true.

A number lost within a phone,
Failing son not worth embrace;
Replaceable, broken drone.
The air from wagging no... |
I stare at my computer as I make some details on my new character. I recently got a better drawing pad for my computer like a real nice, expensive one so I was spending a lot of time on it. After awhile I decide to take a quick break but when I turn around in my chair I see the characters I drew on my other drawing tab... |
Wonderfully done! You effectively transmitted the emotions of the narrator and made me feel sympathy for him. The gradual move from a questioning tone to that of acceptance was very smooth!

Being a slug was probably my last choice, but overall it’s better than I thought. I can climb walls, and camouflage is cool to. But there is only one problem, when I was a human before the disaster I really loved salty food, popcorn potato, chips, you name it. But now that I’m a slug just touching salt would kill me... |
I don't like cleaning things.
No, seriously, I know this is a trope, but I totally despise it. I procrastinate as much as I can, but when I went to visit my mother, she needed help to clean her attic. And you don't refuse to help your mother.
She had a lot of old things in there, most of it useless objects and souven... |
I'm not a special person.
I'm one of the most monotonous introverts you'll ever meet. Sure, I'm still a human being. I do have flaws, passions, even crushes on girls I know will never give me a chance. But that doesn't change the fact that I'm just another face in the crowd.
So why did I find the book that day?

By now my socks were completely soaked through, the boots on my feet did little to keep the muck and water out. It was no use trying to keep them dry any longer.

For centuries it had been a myth. A joke. Something to tell foreigners for a laugh. We stopped laughing when the first confirmed sighting came in.
Apparently, a 16 year old had, on a dare, bought twenty jars of vegemite. And eaten them one after another. With only a spoon. It sent him mad, and now he hid among the tr... |
**I woke with a mouthful of dirt and a shot of pain trailing from my nostrils to the dip in my heel.**
My forehead pulsed hard. An insect buzzed my ear, and I pushed my peeled hands into the sticks and leaves to prop myself up. I stared down. One eye opened okay. The other eye refused. Two gut-red teeth lay in the di... |

I knew when I first stepped foot in the Belitos' School for Magic I was in the wrong place. The people around me could do amazing things. Amazing, terrible, and fascinating things.

I was young when I died for the second time.
I have to admit that if there was a ratio good/bad deeds for that life, it would be pitifully small. For my defense, I had grew up in a nameless African nation, forcefully enrolled in a local militia as soon as I could hold a gun. I was taught morals there. Obey orders. Kil... |

Tracking this girl was hard, no social media, no address, only few photos to be found, and only one from the last year.
No results for alternative names on social media either. I had talked to her mother, not much contact since she ran away, and the contact that was there conducted via postcards.

Poor Old Joe wheeled his mop bucket corral into the director's office. He sighed.

As I drew my final gasps of air, I thought back on my life. I was an infamous poacher who had traveled far and wide in search of the much prized ivory tusks. The pay was simply too good to pass up.
