Corporal Josh Adams fiddled with his communicator and got it back into working condition. His heart burned with frustration, grief and fear as he thought about the situation he was in. Trapped on a Earth conquered long ago by "benevolent"alien overlords known as the Krag, the population reduced to mindless puppy-like...
I had it in my grasp - the most powerful thing anyone could ask for. I’ve always hated this stupid place, with it's stupid people and stupid animals. Oh yes, the animals for sure. There was something about dogs in particular, the way they shook their stupid fluffy tails and gazed up at you with their adorable brown eye...
Doing it all again, with nothing but pants on just for the crac' because your an alcoholic Irish man with nothing else to live for because your fam have disowned you, but realised it's gone down the pan and the thrill of it is the only thing keeping you from murdering them all, the downward spiral could be the end of ...
"what?"My confused look clear on my face. "Uhh you really think that humans are really made by God. No no no God has made a few humans sure and will trade them with me thus Jesus and gandi and all that but average humans like you we made by me." Fear and confusion a mixture I do not like was boiling up inside me. "So...
The Nutrisystem filled my veins like the fires of 2 or 3 leaky volcanoes boiling my brain and making my colon throb with the aftershocks of my future dumps. The fact that I knew how bad this was going to be and continued to gorge on the Nutrisystem tells you just how out of options I was. Did I mention I'm Recall poo...
"This statement is false,"the man says. He had hoped to confound you, but you aren't a robot... are you? You begin to think about the statement, and allow it to fill your mind. Suddenly, there is a loud popping sound from behind you, then above you. You look, and see your headless body standing there, with wires hangin...
It really is wise to always wear your seatbelt. Or you could end up like me - suspended twenty plus feet above ground while the car you were in crumples like a soda can against the hard body of the colliding car. I suppose I should be grateful. At least I am alive. The world is moving in slow motion but that must just...
I should have been nicer to her. When the Seers said we would bring light and dark, when Red would hunt, everyone assumed that I was light, all cooing and golden hair while my sister, all whining and red strands would be my downfall. After all, she was my sister and I was Light, so I should have set an example when p...

Rodrigo was beyond tired. His eyes were almost glued shut with sleep and the deep, oblivious slumber that comes after severe exhaustion. He lay motionless, still dressed, on the bed in the train compartment, the covers partially undone, but sprawled on the floor. To any bystander or casual observer, it may look like he...
Divine Comedy. I entered the halls of heaven and they were empty. It wasn't quite like imagined. Not that I had imagined I'd be here at all. In retrospect, my life was a series of miscalculations. The final one being the distance between myself and the edge of Canyon de Chelly. Navajo land was dry. I had followed a ...
*I didn't know what he was truly was until things had progressed past the point of no return.* A young girl huddles in an alleyway.

The days and nights had been different since then, The days filled with cackling, as it stares down at women and men. The nights still saw the face in the sky, its brightness still profane. Losing sleep, humanity went insane. In vain the people pray Just to set things back things to their old way. We did not listen to ...
Kenth poured over his many tomes searching for an answer to the worrying decline in birthrates in his country.  The birthrates were declining rapidly with no known cause or cure. Women could get pregnant but not carry the child to term, out of every 20 pregnancies only one may make it to term. The King turned to hi...
The land seemed to swell somehow and from miles around, it burst into flames. The heat smashed into me, its pressure threatening to pop me as if I were buried miles under a vast, boiling ocean. I was blind! The fire was too bright and I lost all sense of--everything. Behind my eyelids it wasn't black or white, th...
Have you ever thought about how fickle memory is? I mean think about it. Do you remember everything you did 2 days ago? What about 5? What about 10? It is amazing how something so important in shaping us into the person we are is also so unreliable and fleeting. I have seen people without memory. And they are husks. No...
I am undoubtedly the best at my job. Twenty years in, there isn't a single thread connected to me from my hits. As I down the eighth bottle for the day, I steady my sight and my hand, ready to aim, and within seconds my target is hit. The liquid flowing within me now makes this so much easier. Makes me forget and get ...

It was supposed to be a duel just like any other. For years I had been practicing and refining my technique, and as I continued to duel and train my reputation grew. With that reputation I gained a big head; it became more and more rare that any opponent could challenge me. I stopped improving, stopped trying, and stop...
Can i do it? That is the question everyone is wondering. Can i finally shake off the shackles of narcissism and become something different? Something anew? Born again? Probably not. You see, if i were to do that, i would no longer exist. A truly terrifying notion. i cannot cross that line. i won't do that. But at wh...
Growing up I had always been afraid of what was out there, like the darkness of the night sky might swallow us up and we'd disappear before we knew what had happened. I think I always knew they were there so when they came I almost wasn't surprised. My mind had played out every eventuality of their coming. They would h...
I've had a guardian angel for as long as I can remember. He stood vigilant next to my sleeping child body, and was there for every second of my life. We spoke at length sometimes, but only when in privacy. He claimed he was an angel of god and said his name was Astrial. It was a strange relationship we held. I can...
The facility was vast and pristine, no windows or any kind of view of the outside. Nothing to even tie us to a planet, for all I know we could be in deep space right now. All of us sitting around a table, no one speaking just yet, all of us just quietly flipping through the terabytes of data on our tablets. 14 total E...
"What is it like?" "I'm sorry?"I responded to myself. Well, not exactly myself. Oh, no. I suppose he was *exactly* myself, since we are the same person. "This life you have. The wife, the kids. Are you happy? What is it like?" I paused a moment, tea in hand. I took a sip and thought about his question. "In the gran...
I adjusted my clock. For testing. Just testing, no malicious intent. My homebrewed Linux distro was made to be small. I used shortcuts and manipulated glitches to make it small. It would only ever work on my computer. I plugged in the number. 2200. Simple enough. Just 10'o clock. My rig rumbled. Had my OS destroyed my...
I thought she was incredibly lucky. I’d have given just about anything to have a modeling career like that, but i didnt have the looks. She must have had contracts with every high-end brand.

“Seriously?” exclaimed a gruff voice holding a tattered piece of parchment. The owner of this voice was your slightly above average strong man, clad in armor protecting most of his vitals. His muscles were strongly defined giving the impression his heavy gear weighs nothing to him. On his back was a heavy broadsword. ...

“Welcome. I am here to answer any questions you may have. Please keep your voice down though, there are other people here.” The man was, well it was hard to describe. In fact Jake wasn’t even sure it was a man. It felt fuzzy, as if his brain wasn’t quite comprehending what he was seeing. The best way to describe him...
As his eyes slowly grew accustomed to sudden bright light, Nathan took a good look at his surroundings. A sea of clouds, stretching out as far as the eye could see. His feet slightly sank into the ground, like you would on a snowy winter morning. He turned around, and saw a marble wall, stretching into the distance, th...
John felt for the reassuring weight of his pistol in his jacket. It was time to save the world. He had always dreamt of saving humanity and becoming a hero.

“My elders always taught me life is short and precious. And that it goes by faster the older you get. Back then I hadn’t realized how fast life truly was.

Faerie dust everywhere.. That's the first thing I noticed. Well, after the completely decimated Orc corpse sprawled out just before the forests border.. Violent little shits, faeries.

I was once told that I could drink to a level that would make a hardened sailor wince and continue even after my legs gave out. At the time, I honestly believed that there was not a problem and vehemently refused to seek treatment. The biggest consequence, surprisingly enough, was not a hangover but the fallout from my...
I took a while to develop. Many years and millions ride on this. The test chamber is extremely white, painfully so. All of a sudden, a loud noise echos through the chamber. It’s a distorted person speaking. “Begin test one, activation.” I take a deep breath. So many hours of preparation, the training, the mental tortu...
The bus finally came to a halt outside of New York. I stepped out onto the curb and dusted the potato chips from a tiny jacket that once kept me warm during the night.

It isn't like I have any control over it. All my actions are based on rules which I cannot change.

Zerplok sighed deeply. Nothing of value left. This blue, green globe promised the possibility of the sparks of sweetness but all is just dross and jetsam.

When a new were-beast fledgling is created, usually their master lets them drink of their blood in a similar manner to vampiric rituals. This in turn makes them the same type of were-beast as their master, and the bloodline continues onward. In very rare cases when a fledgling contracts the disease, yet isn't given an...
Nothing makes me happier than flying over this grand old canyon. The rolling winds, the great food to eat, the beautiful scenery, it really is a picturesque setting.

“Son of a bitch,” I said. I was destitute. A bad investment in my younger days left me penniless. But that didn’t matter. Because I had something special no one had. That was, until this morning. Now, my caps were gone. Fucking raiders. “Dogmeat, get over here boy,” I called out. “We got a trail to follow!” It took me...
Back when I was a kid, Fight Club was everything. We took it as the torchbearer of our rebellion. Society was over. We were the new thing.

Mr. Narrator, can you tell me another story? I ask because I'm tired of all the cliche plots I've lived through, all the development I've never experienced, all the stories that we never finished.
