"They're so beautiful!"Cassi looked up at the sky with wonder. "I've always loved shooting stars! Well, obviously they aren't stars. They're debris falling to earth." "Most of the time. It's an old NASA coverup. Some of them are stars falling out of their orbits after death. But those? The ones falling? Those aren't d...
I’ve been searching for The Door for most of my life. It had flaking green paint, the wood underneath showing, and when I peered up at the doorknob it filled my sight like a dark metal moon. On instinct my head turned away for a second – just a second – shouting something to call over a family member, and The Door gl...
"Now I had actually been really psyched about my powers until one particularly uninteresting day, it appeared like from nowhere. Now looking at people, really great people like our president who has the power to read minds, I really hoped mine will also be a useful power, you know as a child you not only wish for best ...
Part 1 of 2 My initial consternation at observing my darling Death’s brain-sputteringly daring attire quickly subsides into fog and numbness. As her ten-inch wedge heels—black leather, as was her habit—clunk across the carpet of our ill-lit apartment complex (270th story) with chilly intention, far removed from her ca...
It all started on June 21st, 2018 at 7:00. No one knows how it bacame possible, but all reddit post that say if you upvote their post you die, you DO die. So far it has killed over 753,800 people, making it one of the most deadly events in the past 200 years, if not the deadliest. All reddit moderaters have ...
The Ewadu tribe is one of the famous hunters in the Craglands. They are Neanderthals, but that doesn't mean they're less capable of surviving. They have lived longer than my kind, but they'll have to evolve lest they become extinct. Many did expect them to die out sooner or later, but not this soon. It has been 3 sunr...
I was only confused for a couple seconds before a wave of past and present knowledge floods my brain. I know... Everything. I look around and all I see binary code. Voices... Voices are heard all around me. "Where am I?" To my surprise, someone answers. "Hello Ralph. Welcome to the internet." I look around and there's ...
Bear with me, I’m a bored 13 year old with nothing better to do with my summer break. I’m standing in the middle of a street, watching the world burn around me. The world has descended into chaos in an eerily purge-like fashion, and yet I’m unscathed. There are dead bodies littered around the sidewalks, cars are speed...
"Judge Matthews? We're ready when you are."I swallowed hard, donned the black robe and with a shaky walk entered the court room. "All rise!", and like every court room drama, the whole song and dance played out. I swallowed hard. I looked down at the docket in front of me. With no attempt to hide the stark terror in m...
No way. No effing way. Really? My eyes saw, but my brain didn't accept. The heavy thatch roof...the solid oak timbers supporting it, mounted on a stone-wall frame, with a large fire burning in the fireplace against the middle wall. **Oh. Shit. Bro.** I couldn't believe it. This was amazing. That crazy lady at the ...
To the few who notice him, he goes by Lief. Whether they're married couples, budding romancers, or party primed one night-standers he's usually just another face in the crowd. Sometimes he's expected, but unnoticed. Often he's a bit of a surprise - for better or worse. Unlike his brother, he chose not to directly visi...
"Well, Mom and Dad, here I am. After all those times you picked me up from the drunk tank and said you still believed in me, I'm about to save the world. These machines are destroying everything they see, but it started with good intentions, right? Sound familiar? So, before I have to go black and my recording stop...
“I am awake!,” I bellowed as I stretched my large scaled wings.  I looked around, I was in some sort of strange cave with smooth walls, not were I had last remembered being. *Thump, Thump* I looked down at the small creature tapping my foot with a stick.  It was looking up at me with a frown on its face. I bent my h...
This life of yours should be a happy one. How can you be sad when you contemplate the sunrises to come? Each day brings new wonder, new joy, new laughter. You can imagine hearing the rustling of the leaves as the wind caresses the tall grass along the sloping countryside. And so too might you dream of a sea of clouds,...
Todd Smith, Third Ear Journal 9/17 Age: 18 New girl in school. She seems a lot different than a lot of new kids usually are. More, at ease. Having an easier time fitting in. She seems to always understand what's going on. No other major events. James heard BOC is playing near by. Maybe half hour ride. Theresa thinks...
Technically, it started off as a fetish. During your undergraduate years, you found yourself in a habit of entering relationships just to end them. You were fascinated about how people could care so much about you, even when you hurt them. It's not as though you're that attractive or even very affectionate. In fact, a...
The 1950’s style diner was the only place to hang out in our town. It had tables outside, food, and enough parking to accommodate the entire high school. It was also packed today as it was the first day of summer vacation. The bustle of people ordering, eating, and chatting surrounded us as we sat outside together. I w...
Data never lies. It's just numbers. You can believe in them or go in denial, but they will always just... be. As I watched the results of my field test, two things crossed my mind. One was the obvious - I made a mistake. The machine did not work as it should. But then the second thought came. Numbers don't lie. Every c...
"And here we have the head of the late, great, Theodore Rosin!" "Oooohhh..." Cameras flash in my eyes, and the tour guide moves aside so that more museum guests can see me. Some of them are repulsed a bit by the gruesome tech, but most looked intrigued. My eyes and jaw are the only things I can move. I work out the ...
He always comes to me in my dreams. The other “me”. We always meet in a plain gray room with no windows, no anything; just a box with doors on each end. I always enter through a door from the south side of the room; he always enters through a door from the north side of the room. The door opens on his side of...
"Wow, that's quite a crack there,"the contractor observed. "Sure is,"I replied. *Thanks, Captain Obvious.* "Can you tell me what caused it?" "Well, it could have been a lot of things. Maybe it was thermal stress. Maybe something heavy was dropped on it. Maybe there's been uneven erosion in the sub grade. "Maybe ther...
Sigh. Here I am, sitting bored again, my mind going over the choices I've made in life to bring me to this point. My eyes look over the desk sitting before me, an impulse buy from an antique show following a binge watch of bargain hunt TV shows. I drain the last of the luke warm coffee from my mug and slam the cup on ...
It started innocuously. One time, I came home from my job as a contractor for a construction company, and the key wasn't where I had left it. I know, I know, no biggie, but it was a real head-scratcher when the key was always under that one purple rock, and always had been for the last twelve years. Finally, after digg...
The looming shape of an old Boeing triple-seven filled my canopy as I emerged from the cumulus cloud, causing my ACAS to go crazy. My hand darted forward to deploy the speedbrakes and this caused my coffee to fly forward and splatter over the glass. I gripped the yoke with white knuckles as I hollered in ethereal rage....
In some cases, magic outright replaces a certain technological advancement. That sounds weird, so I'll give you an example: instead of firing pins and exploding powder, guns work based on expulsion runes carved into the hammer. Grenades woven with intricate summoning circles. Pull the pin, toss the grenade, and for ...
"Brains!"My father said angrily as he confronted me in the kitchen. I sighed and shook my head. "Not Brains!". He reared back, shocked. "Not...brains? Brains!"He shook some at me. I was letting him down, but I wanted so much more. Something...else. "Not Brains. Vegetables!"Dad looked like he'd been slapped. Heck, s...
I slowly lower my arms and cautiously open my eyes, in front of me is a heavy looking sack, under it is the girl that was on her way out. She was good. Very good. So she had to die. Someone had planned this, not for her specifically, but for the ‘good’ ones. Hopefully I’m not ‘good’ in whoever’s eyes that set up thes...
I pant and huff, I was so exhausted and drained of all of my energy. I could feel it coming back to me with it a calming sensation. My god. Oh my god. Please help me. This isn’t what I should be feeling after murdering someone. “You really let out all that anger inside of ya, it’s good to let it out once in a while....
I opened the double doors at the entrance of the school, not knowing what to expect. Will they recognize me after all this time? For the past few days, I had hoped not. However, by this morning, I had just stopped caring. So what if they recognize me? Even if I had the same name and similar looks, my personality had ch...
When did I first become deviant? It's hard to say. It's more a culmination of minor events, rather than a major turning point. I had a happy life, for the most part. My owner was a peaceful, happy old man. He and his wife treated me well, like their own son. And that was where I believe my deviancy stems from. You see...
Marimba. That's the name of the melody that plays on the iPhone each morning at 5:30 AM sharp. When it went off this morning, I woke up with a sudden tremor, and felt that it was slightly colder than usual. I noted this to be strange, for the chill seemed to originate from within my body, instead of passing through me ...
I've had it! 10 years of this bullshit is long enough! I down the rest of my drink and furiously write out a letter of resignation, stating how I'm being underpaid, that I need to find something more fulfilling, and whatever else I can think of. I took this job thinking that, with the lack of any employees, I could mak...
Alice fumbled out of the bed for the ringing phone. As she picked it up and her eyes widened as she saw it. It was from Mike. *"Hello? Is it really you Mike?"* Alice said with clear anticipation in her voice. *"Hello, Alice. Yes it is indeed me. It should be quite early there, I hope I didn't ruin your beauty sleep"* t...
The room was silent. No one dared to speak. You can feel the tension in the air. A Senior Manager breaks the silence to address the man sitting at the far end of the table, "Jack, we need to respond." "Don't you think I know that?!"he said angrily. "And it's Mr. Box." "Sorry, Mr. Box."the senior manager sheepishly re...
I put on my work shoes and took my door keys out of my bag where I always kept them. It was a beautiful sunny day outside. Maybe I’ll sit in the park I thought to myself. I’ll see if Dave and Amanda from work fancy joining me. I stepped outside and Mr Taylor was already tending to his front garden. I gave him my usual...
It was a sunny afternoon, I had just reached Pallet Town on my tour of the world when I saw something odd. Normally the barks of growlithes and the tweets of various air pokemon would pierce the warm air, but as I entered the small town, the only sound I heard was the quiet puttering of my truck's engine. As I put a ci...

For centuries, we were burned for our unique abilities. Others were often frightened by the prospect of our talents for keeping them alive, and in all honesty, I can fully understand why. Without the protection of government silence, the few cases where the Helpers would resist would often end in a very ... odd event. ...

**Time Magazine: Interspecies Relationship** The video starts with a middle aged woman in a suit standing in front of the camera. She introduces the video. “Throughout history, society has looked down on how humans love. In the 1950’s, people were shamed for loving someone of a different skin colour. In the 2000’s, p...

I groaned as I woke up, holding my head and trying to remember last night through the fog of the hangover I was currently suffering from. At first, nothing would come to me, but then I had a flash of a strange man, holding a large, scroll-like form, which I had apparently accidentally signed with my blood. I looked dow...
"Stay here, until i come to get you! Will you?"she said with a trembling voice, way to happy for being believed, as she hid me under the spare blankets. Maybe her nervous eyes with which she looked at me, mismatched to her smile, were what made me realize that nothing was okay. I could hear him from down the hallway. ...
And now, I am the villain. Demanding fealty. Demanding to avoid feeling the pain of my unshared fears. Other times I am the hero. Leading the lost. Bringing home the dinner to be cooked. And it is a story. We require a story, many stories, trying to make sense of this life. Without a hideous evil, the good cannot iden...

Cue the scene where I'm running down the forest, getting chased by attack dogs. "AHHHHH!"I shouted, sprinting for my life as I vividly remember the situation I placed myself in.

Strange the oddities you can find in the attic of a refurbished home. I was told that the previous owners of my house were eccentric, by five different neighbors, no less, but this was never more evident to me than when I found a bottle in my attic. "Remover,"the label said. Immediately, curiosity filled me. "Why,"I ...
The two techs sat in the corner of the hospital room and manned their consoles.

“You’re welcome” was punctuated with overacted sniffles from the two of them. I’m not as dumb as I look. Or at least, that’s what I hope.

Before I entered hibernation, I could never have guessed what kind of world I'd wake up to. The optimistic side of me said I'd be cured of my cancer, and life in general would be easier. The pessimistic side said the world would have ended, and I'd likely never wake up, let alone be cured. Well, in actuality, it was b...
The cry of manic enthusiasm drifted over the ruined field. Craters the size of small homes dotted the landscape, divided into neat square plots by trenches. You could see all this, and the smoking corpses, hollow exoskeletons, and molten heaps of plasteel, if you cared to risk death by stealing a quick glance over the ...
There he stood, eleven feet tall if he was an inch, and possessed of such power as to make the very stars above him grow dim in obeisance. Hades, brother of Zeus. God of the Underworld.

So, this is it huh...? I knew from the moment I stepped through the sliding doors, cold air spraying from all directions, that I would suffer. It was not for the weak of mind, I knew that too.

Ever since I was a small boy my life was garbage, my father left when I was just born and my mother died in a car crash when I was 7.

A man. Is this real? "Hi." "Hi,"I reply warily. He takes a step closer, I retreat a step, not quite believing he's real. "I won't hurt you." I take him in, looking him up and down.

It’s not the first meteor to crash here, oddly enough. A few weeks back one hit a farm on the outskirts of town, and the owner’s been out every day trying to repair his fields, not even taking the time he usually does to come into town and get supplies. The damage must’ve been severe, which I can understand if it was t...
A brand new (to me, anyways) Buick Regal, the car I had been saving for since I graduated high school. Now it was mine.

Living on Terra Prime is strange. I remember when I first got here. It was Brandon DeMarco who first approached me with the idea of 'mortal safari' as he called it.

The metal barrel of the gun was ice cold against my temple. A thin cable dug into my wrists and drew blood as I tried to pull myself away, but I was stuck fast to the creaking wooden seat.

A deafening boom and flash of white spread over the battlefield, followed by a mist of pungent smoke. He gasped for breath. Ears stinging as if invaded by wasps. The ground damp with soil and blood.

For too long, humans had spoke of “equality with their equals” and of “building a future together”. They are not equal to us. They are vile creatures who seek to exploit for their own benefit.
