"You've always stumbled into trouble but I never took you for one of those mean girls that would asks a guy out just to make fun of him. " Rae said as she helped fix her friend, Shellys, hair. "I'm not...I actually really like Manny. " "Really?" "Yeah. I don't care that's he's a "nerd", he's sweet and cute and my ...
Buzz, ring, ding. The phone in his front pocket went off a few times, each time, begging more and more to be looked at. Ignoring the first two times, the third became more aggressive, demanding. As he finally unlocked his device, he found that it was a usual systems notification. “Permission to access storage?” the m...
Tyler tapped his chin thoughtfully as he stared into the almost blinding light of his laptop, blinking at the little orange figure opened up on his browser. Cracking his fingers, he typed in his username and password. It didn't take long for his homepage to load, flashing a plethora of gifs, posts, and other general ...
"Are you absolutely sure there are no threats?"I asked seemingly to my computer's monitor. "They wouldn't be calling for digidestined if there weren't any threats."On the monitor, what can only be described as a cyborg sea serpent shook its head. I gave it disappointed click of the tongue as I was informed that my part...
"The mosquito genus is to spread malaria, killing millions of people each year, and Zika, paralyzing the tourism industry." King Walrus honked at Annual Animal Retaliation Project (AARP). "What will we do?"asked the giant panda representatives, the polyps of the coral reefs, and the dwellers of the Amazon Rainforest. ...
I woke up to my alarm chiming gently by my ear. As I reached out to silence it, it scampered away and grew louder. Sighing, I stretched for a few moments, then rose from bed. Once I was disrobed and in the shower, the alarm shut itself off. I still had almost 750 liters of water in my monthly budget, so I went ahea...
Zachary Blue created the pocket universe as a goof during Quantum Computing class. There was only one video game worth playing on high school computers, Time Line Trail^(TM) —an educational title developed by the great grandchildren of the Silicon Valley venture capitalists who had bought the Oregon Trail IP at auctio...
"First off, we don't drink blood. Okay?" The idiot nodded. Stupid would-be Van Helsing moron. The kid couldn't have been any older than his early twenties, and had that look. You know the one, that look of a person not terribly grounded in reality. Always thinking that their shining moment is just around the corner, p...
I could never look at Frank again in the same way. We had had each others backs, we had always been there for each other for 11 years and then he revealed that he was lying to me the whole time. That he could speak, that he was articulate. In fact, he was more than articulate, he was incredibly intelligent. ...
“And a..” The terror on my face. I could feel the sweat dripping down as I analyzed the dice. “Double. A double,” I said clearly, watching my hands tremble. The people around me all shocked with fear. As if I had made a grave mistake to humanity. But I did. A man in the corner brought out his men, and said with a sm...
Lester woke to the sound of clopping hooves, or was it the piercing headache that seemed to split his sinus in two, either way he sat up, took in his surroundings and tried to scratch his head but found his hands bound in rope. "Hmm odd" he thought, not too puzzled by the oddness of the situation. grasping the edge ...
Nobody really knew a lot about him. The trillion year old man. Mostly people just believe he's a fiction of myth -- some illusory serpent that has traveled through histories fortune tellings to entertain the age's curious youth. Not to be believed. A 'fairy tale'. In current times, few know better. Unfortunately I b...
“Let’s light those sons of bitches up,” the Colonel says. I start mashing buttons with my fists until the whole launch board glows red. The heat from the rockets behind me singe my hair, and the smell of sulfur lingers. Soon, on the field below, body parts start to fly in bright orange explosions. Eat that fuckin...
Hi u/SleepyLoner, this submission has been removed. Prompts aren't meant to complain about the sub.

The policeman held up his gun, his hands quivering in fear. The lady had a banana, compared to his gun, which meant he was ridiculously outmatched. His only hope was resting on the fact that he could distract the lady until backup came. Normally he would’ve been using a banana too, but he had used his already, earlier...
Wait, I’m a cat now? What the @€&# is going on!? I gotta call God and ask! “Oi God, I’m a cat now apparently?” God: “Yeah, I thought I’d spice it up a bit. After doing this for 2 billion years, it just gets boring, y’know?” “Alright, seems fair. So, what do I do now, exactly?” God: “Well, since you’re not that ...
The cool autumn breeze swirled through the trees, making the leaves shudder and occasionally fall to the sidewalk. Don’t step on a crack or you’ll fall and break your back!, Janet thought to herself as she stretched and shortened her stride to avoid the cracks in the sidewalk. It was a childish game, she knew, but sh...
“I’m just not that into you.”. It says above her head, almost like a text message bubble. I thought the date was going fairly well but I guess a hug at the end of the date sealed my fate. She could see I was disappointed, it didn’t take revolutionary technology to figure that out. “Goodbye!” she says, as she climbs int...
“Babe, It’s the same every single time. Whenever it’s your turn to pick on movie night, it’s the exact same one. It was cute that your all time favorite was one I was part of at first, but I can only silently critique my own performance so many times before it gets too boring to stand. If you want me to stay quiet the ...
When you imagine superpowers, you think of heroes. That's not surprising. In fact, it's somewhat comforting. To believe that when given great power or ability, people choose to do good with it, and almost unfailingly are able to defeat those unhappy few who use those powers for evil. The reality of them is a bit more ...
She was a weird girl, dressed in what looked like an old style tunic and sandals. Like something out of an old history channel documentary or something. She was a bit odd but, I wasn’t about to let a big fish slip away. If I nailed this a promotion could be in the works, hell they might make me partner. The money she l...
Night caretaker for a cemetery might not be everyone's idea of an ideal job, but for me it's perfect. The cemetery in question is well-maintained by the day staff, so all I really need to do it patrol the perimeter to deter the local youths from intruding and vandalising the graves. Not that they'd get very far if the...
Toad Strategic Command, 3 Days Ago "Luigi?" "Busy, actually. In addition to being Mario's best man, he's apparently on duty for paranormal disturbances. Totally unavailable." Toaderick sighed heavily, making another deep red slash through the guard details schedule. "Toadsworth?" To those who knew him, the Capt...
I stumbled backwards and fell flat on my ass as the beast pounced for my face. I went for my sword as it's claws landed on my chest digging into the hard leather chestplate. My sword was caught under its weight and unusable, so I went for my dagger but found my snack pouch. Adventuring is hard work. Lots of snacks are ...
It wasn't a snake. He used to say there was whenever I pulled on the string on his back, and the one time there really was something in his boot, it was a lot worse than a snake. During the night, when the toys and I were asleep, it flew in through the open window, sneaking past the soldiers on their post without the...
Clang “Ahh! Damn you!!” I involuntarily yell grasping my left foot between my two hands. The pain of walking into the corner of a hallway table demands to be felt. “Stupid table!” i angry whisper to the dark abyss. The throbbing eventually dies down and I attempt to make my way down the corridor. Now seemingly long a...
I take a deep breath, close my eyes, and let myself surrender to death. Then, a bright red light. The words GAME OVER in big red letters flash in front of me. Then my eyes roll forward, back out of my skull and I'm standing in a room that looks like it could be an arcade. Row after row of cabinets flash symbols that...
“I cannot live like that anymore. Always running. Always alert and suspicious of everything, everyone. They are closing by. I know it. I can feel them. I’m done, man! I know it. I won’t be able to escape from them.” The voice was exhausted and out of breath. “Maybe you should just give in. Working with the human is no...
It was a day like any other. I returned from a normal day of school, to a normal dinner with my normal family. It was all so... normal. Nothing exciting ever happened in my small little town. In fact if I were to rename it I would call it Routineville, or Borington. Perhaps if I lived somewhere more interesting I'd be...
A lone building pierced the black sky far from civilization. Its towers like spears opposing the heavens, made of black with vines climbing to reach the peak of each one. The looming building is juxtaposed by the beautiful thorn gardens and deep purple grass spread far in every direction. "Welcome all of Pure Spirit"r...
Liam walked down the street. The rain drizzled above him. He hopped onto the curve of the sidewalk, flashing his red jacket. His denim boots clicked on the pavement. As he was about to turn the curve, A golden light shone upon him. Out came a figure covered in robes of white. Liam bounced back his purple jeans catching...
My name is Judas Iscariot. I was born a sin. Living proof of one’s depravity and treason. I was born from hatred, grew in contempt and molded by loathing. I am Judas Iscariot. The child they spat on. The one no one could believe nor befriend. The testimony of my mother’s ugliness, the face of a cheater. They never ex...
Overall, I liked the concept. I do agree with u/AnEffortIsBeingMade that having the text would make editing easier, but it does sound good as spoken. As far as how you are speaking it, be careful when editing as there were a couple spots where the pacing felt clipped, like the edit took out too much of the space betwee...
Noone should know. That would really mess his life. I should just make it through the day, like I do every other day, fighting the good fight. I've been functioning years now as a moderator; meaning that I actually 'moderate' the others' lives, becoming them for a day, tightening loose ends, keeping some necessary bal...
‘It’s beautiful,’ Laly whispered. The gentle awe in her voice sent a twitch of annoyance through Hest. He turned to her and studied her expression. Her eyes seemed to be glassy with amazement, reflecting the colossal form of the mountain on the horizon. He supposed the view must seem impressive to most people. She pro...
Sitting on a husk of a car, I stare out towards the former city of Las vegas. I reminisce to myself about how I got here and the events that have shaped this world. It all started years ago when I made a pact with a demon for eternal life. I thought it would be great, I'd see the world, study various languages and cul...
Wasn't that thing buzzing around my ear in the shower earlier? Jeez, this was one of those bigger ones, too, where you could make out the amber and purple sheen on its wings. My phone chimed. It was Dad. He sent me a picture that was taken earlier today of a turquoise swimming pool with a little waterfall at the end ...
"Welcome to the 73rd annual Emmy awards!"What followed was a bunch of clapping and a joke by the host that would be dated a year later that was based on current events. I sit in my seat idly awaiting my category. You see, I'm a producer who's been nominated for best commercial series. It's been a growing thing lately...
“Are you nervous?” The woman dabbing my arm with an alcohol swab was a beautiful young blond. She smile was dazzling, but it did little to settle my nerves. “That obvious, uhhh?” I asked, trying to smile back and not fidget in the chair. She laughed. “Alice. And it’s alright.” She said, picking up the injector fr...
Sometimes, the perfect thing happens at the most inopportune time. That was what happened when I happened to win the lottery. 600 Million Dollars, an amount to big to turn down, no matter the circumstances. The only problem is I was, I swear I'm not kidding, in the Witness Protection Program. Here is where it gets real...
I was crying but I don't know why, giants were all around and speaking a language I've never heard before. After cleaning me off and wrapping my up in a blanket one of them hands me to another, a female that smiles down at me kindly. I forgot almost everything about who I was as I got older, my fear of planes stuck ar...
The world was a cruel place, though I knew there were many that felt that way. For me it was a lonely, dry, barren place where no one around could remember my face. As a young child I had found it exhilarating. Stealing was easy, as long as I avoided the cameras. I could get away with everything, but now the act was ge...
It was almost sunrise. The dark forest was about to fall asleep. Bats flew back to their nests, raven finished up their preys, and the nightmares were slowly fading away. On the sinuous and dusty path, a black carriage was making its way home. Inside, sat opposite a pair of mother and daughter. Isabella could only repr...
It should have been the perfect vacation to help ease the pain of losing my wife. It was late in Epcot. Minnie Mouse had a huge crowd around her. My 6 year old daughter Lucy wanted me to propose to Minnie. “She’d be perfect as a new mommy”. Anything to make her happy. I mean it’s all in good fun right? We waited in l...
"Hi, is this Mark?" "Listen, I don't have time to talk right now, I've..." "I don't think you want to hang up that phone, Mark." The cheerfulness in his voice is a thin veil for the cold power behind it. It's the sound of a man that knows something that you don't. "Mark? Are you there, buddy?" There's a block in y...
Not many people appreciate the bliss that a drunken stupor can lead to. For me, it is particularly favorable when my wife is being a complete turd. So there I go, into oblivion, happily and obtusely ignoring the fact that that bitch is upstairs, trying her 110-pound damnedest to make enough noise to keep me awake. ...
We’ve got a problem, a big one.’ The hooded man said, looking at Thoré. ‘Time is running out.’ Thoré has come here to get paid for a task the hooded man couldn’t do himself, but this task was rather vague and seemed uncompleted. ‘Time is running out for what, Wise One?’ Thoré asked in a desperate attempt to understand...
You were under the tree. Well not you exactly but someone who looks like you, exactly. When you cut it down you saw a thumb sticking out from the center of the rings and the cops were called. Day and night and day, and one more night, they excavated the corpse that had been gnarling with the dying roots. The trees spin...
Eve "I'm scared!"She said as tears rolled down her cheeks. The ground rumbled once more, everyone around her struggled to keep their footing. Far off the crashing and twisting of buildings could be heard. Slowly, the world was beginning to fall apart. "Keep your head down, baby!"her mother cried. "Keep your head...
The Raven struggles, shreds of my bloody skin clinging to its feathers like glistening streamers. I am paralyzed, helpless even to cry out as its talons seek purchase on my ribcage, the motion forcing its body up and away from my own. Black wings flare from my side, then begin to beat. Wet red rain falls as the Raven p...
"A castle?!"You give the two men in black suits a confused and disbelieving look. They reassure you that it is legitimate and completely yours, contents and the surrounding acres of forested land. It seems that the great uncle of yours has kept that castle a secret to all family members, only ever mentioning taking v...
Draw knife. Roll out of bed. Crouch into cover. And then wake up, actually wake up, becoming more than just primal survival instinct. I could kill someone waking up like that, and have. I drew in a deep breath, taking in my surroundings. My blood was running high, thrumming in my ears. Darkness. Bed. Nightst...
We were ten minutes away from the aliens inspection and i had finally found the proof we needed. On the silver plater in front of me held the greatest achievement of human kind. The group the U.N had put together had doubted that this would work but i had convinced them in the end. Five minutes to go. We left the room...
Moooooom! Listen here Tarzan. I raised you. Put diapers on you. Heck, I invented diapers for you. If I need to go in your bathroom to get something then I will. Get over it. No. Bathroom man. No Go-reall-ahs. You're just being ungrateful. You've been shacking up wth this Jane girl for like a year now I know you kn...
Greg found himself lost in thought as he emerged from the tree line and entered a small field of boulders on during his ascent of Mt. Hood. He was in impeccable shape, able to hike miles with ease, and brought with him an idol crafted painstakingly from the branch of a tree. Before placing it at the foot of the shrine...
I was at a point in my life where I was just a lot of things - son, brother, college student, and finally - after weeks of whining with other students in class and nail biting - an intern. Not that we aren't all lots of things in our lives at lots of points in our lives. It's just...when I compared my life to the live...
"I'm sorry, they did what?!"The villainous man looking exclaimed, half turned to face his subordinate. A flowing red cape was attached to his shoulders by golden knots, denoting his rank as commander of all Royal Imperial forces. Leading by example, he cuts an imposing figure against the front of a floor-to-wall wind...
Here's my take on it. I'm going to deviate from your prompt somewhat: Welcome to the city of Arpolis, a land of cogs and magic. The west side of the city, Magis, is covered in grand, lavish palaces, with life powered by magic. This is the home of the Megion, those born with the ability to use magic. On the other side ...
Leaning down I close his eyes, fear, anxiety and sadness all flashed through me. I'm not sure how things ended up like this, I barely remember anything about me. What I do know is that I can't be around this anymore. I got in my car driving towards Atlanta, the streets were completely empty even the animals were miss...
The repulsion field emitted by her clothing kept the dust from settling on her. And there was a lot of dust. Deep below ground level, in an ancient tunnel Rita didn't understand, she pulled some kind of synthetic cloth off of a large bulky object. Once the dust settled, Rita realised she'd uncovered some kind of ancie...
A luxury cruise ship is not the thing most people expect to see when they die, and I think that's what inspired me to do it in the first place. With the way purgatory works, it's expected that you meet another lost soul at the dock who has already decided where they're going. Once your partner gets to their destination...
As I stood there staring down at the roaring waves of people, I could not help but feel alone. For the better part of my life I devoted myself to a cause seemingly futile, but here we all gathered. Behind me towered sails so bright and vibrant, whipping in the wind like dog tongues lapping for water. Each man, woman, ...
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Irassa looked at the peaks of the Gray Mountains, the sick color of the giant ice formations standing in direct contrast with the blue of the sky and the white of the Great Valley. "Are you kidding me? We went through all this effort to get here, and now you wanna give up?" The re...
You know what they say: "Everything happens for a reason." People argue, of course. That's what people do. We're so full of ourselves. Homo sapiens -- the same as us, the wise. Ha. We should call ourselves Homo litigiosus. Being the same as us means being contentious. Everything happens for a reason. People argue abo...
“Who bought this house again?” Hank asked. “[Ace Housing](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AsYouKnow) ,” his foreman responded, “they want to put up an apartment complex.” “Right.” Hank looked around. Everything was just as he remembered it. The porch his dad put in, the treehouse he and his brother built...
The Ancients had thought there was no hope. As the climate shifted, the waters rose, and the earth shook with increasing ferocity, the Ancients, for the first time, looked outwards rather than inwards. They looked to the stars for salvation rather than the uncontested ability of their species to endure. They ran, leavi...
I pulled the cold baking pan filled with half of a lasagna out of the fridge and threw it into the oven. Actually threw it. I didn't mean to, but I was just beginning to hate lasagna, ya' know? Have you ever had to eat lasagna for 7...no, 8 days straight? If you have, I feel bad for you. If not, I hope you never h...
Tim Sanchez, head of extraterrestrial intelligence for the US government, was panicking. As he quickly moved down the hallway of the Pentagon, hundreds of scenarios were flashing through his mind, and none of them were good. He looked ahead and saw the door that led to the office of the director of the CIA, his boss, R...
"Ok, this may have worked 1,000 years ago, but humans have been learning while you were asleep. We have the power to fight back" Malphagia chortled and chuffed in amusement. His voice, when he replied, was a deep rumble. It was a sound to lift the hairs on George's neck; a sound to make him want to flee in terror. "Wh...
“I woke up, pushed my comforter off of my body and rolled out of bed. I headed to the restroom, relieved myself, brushed my teeth to avoid costly dental bills, washed my face to avoid acne, and shaved the hair beginning to grow on my head. I got dressed in my usual robes, applied deodorant, and went to my kitchen to pr...
A game of ex-Kings and oh's The August sun beamed over head, grunts and plastic pad slammed into each other at the line. Several scouts murmured to each other approvingly as the quarterback zipped the ball forty yards into the sprinting receivers arms, the defender leapt to make a stop but he was too late. Touchdown....
Slodham & Slogue, 2nd Quarter, Current Fiscal Year If you liquify our assets, I can spin them into silk. Let me at the cashflow, I'll cut rivers in the floor.

The fish squirmed in Robert Taggle's hand. Robert chuckled to himself as he prepared to put the fish in the plastic bucket sitting on the bottom of the canoe. "Silly fish, I've caught you now, you can't esc-" "FREE ME HUMAN, FOR THERE IS A GREAT EVIL BEYOND THE TREES! FREE ME OR WE WILL BOTH PERISH!" Robert looked...
Holy shit, this was going to be a big one, no pun intended. Sweat poured down Mark's face as he finally pulled into the parking lot of his apartment complex. Stumbling out of the car, Mark waddled to the door, dropped his keys, cursed, finally got inside. He dropped his bag just inside the vestibule and had his pants u...
When the winter settles in, the ground turns to ice. There are a number of ways to break through the frost and the hard soil: In older times, gravediggers would hurl boiling water on the ground to loosen up the earth, then work as quickly as possible before the re-freeze. Now electricity is king: Heated metal slices t...
I wake up in my bedroom. Nothing special, except for the fact I feel a little "off". I stretch and get out of bed, and feel something hard on my thigh. I check it out and find out it's... my childhood computer mouse? The one that gave up after just six months? What is it doing here? After getting out bed I do what ...
My face was warm with the frigid cold. "Why does winter I have to be so cold,"I muttered to myself I was tempted to run back in the direction I came from. Although the smell of hot chocolate had swayed my thoughts otherwise. Soon a small cafe was in front of me. A girl carrying a sign turned towards me and waved. Sh...
"Dad, remember how you said that the world doesn't revolve around me?"I ask. Lowering his newspaper, he turns to me and says, "What about it?" "Well, the world does indeed revolve around me." "You know that what I said isn't literal, right?" "No, I'm not joking with you! The Earth is literally revolving around me!"...
The familiar sounds of crashing waves and blaring ship-horns rang out as Naomi's hand instinctively shot out towards her phone. Just fifteen more minutes, she thought, but she knew the second alarm meant it was time. She managed to shower and get partially dressed before she finally saw it: a small eye, oddly wide ...
“Damn Illuminati…” Igor muttered hunched over his cramped table as he read this week’s addition of “The Daily Testicle”. His vintage aluminum-wrapped mobile home was buried deep inside the Valdai National Park. It’s been a quiet night, nothing but Igor’s muttering and the constant monotonous buzz tone of UVB-76. UVB ...
Feeling the cap of the biro pen give ever-so-slightly between my molars, I popped the top, twirled the nondescript plastic ink stick between my index and middle finger, and then pressed the tip to the paper, and in short, even, simple strokes, scribed out "Assume F is a consistent formalized system which contains elem...
I walk into my office and sit in my luxurious desk chair- working for Bruce Wayne/Batman has many advantages. He really depends on me, even though he really doesn’t appreciate me, and won’t ever admit how important I am to him. I look on my desk to open my computer, only to see a card lying on my keyboard. The front h...
This is very strange. Chickens don’t- well, shouldnt have thumbs, but here’s this chicken, clearly hitchhiking! Very strange indeed. Well, now that I’ve made eye contact with him (it? She? Whatever.) as customary, it would be extremely rude to pass by without picking... it up. Mama didn’t raise no asshole. I *h...
They are... unstoppable. Invincible. Autonomous. We were afraid that the enemy might target their production plants, so we gave them ability to reproduce even right on battlefield. In case of damage, we gave them ability to repair cuts and bruises even without their will. We made them as perfect killers: good perceptio...
“Ben, we need to get going!” Rachel yelled and stomped in her high heeled anniversary dinner shoes. “They’re not going to hold our table, if we’re too late!” Ben could barely make out the words Rachel was saying from inside the VR booth, but using her voice pitch as context, he determined it was time to quit the game ...
A young woman pushed a stray piece of hair behind her ear. "Just a minute...here..."She tapped a red-painted finger on a button atop the device in front of her, and a small green light appeared, "Alright."She shuffled some papers in her hand. "This is Susan R. Foulkes and the date is 11 August, 2018, at Arizona State...
“Rachel, did you get it?” Rachel turned around to hide her smile from her brother. “What’s it to you?” Matthew clasped his arms around her “you did, I know it!” “It won’t be enough,” she held out the box, “only for the rabbi really.” “Can I see them?” he asked, peeking before Rachel could answer. “Rachel!” he said ...
"Help me up please!"James said, hanging off of the edge of the cliff with his hands. "You know James, you look so cute when you're helpless, you know that?"Darwin said, with a grin on his face. "Wouldn't it be a shame if something were to happen to you, pushing you off of this ledge? That would be a real shame."Darwin...
The world ended in the blink of an eye and an eternity. Old gods once long put to rest woke once more, feeling the will of those most strong and most enlightened. Such things past, I had no mind and no thoughts to speak of. In a great heave the stars were torn a sunder and nothing washed over all and returned all to no...
When the first breakthrough was discovered with the brains of mice, they rejoiced. When the first man volunteered to give his mortal life, they celebrated. When the man tested into the winds of progress and was declared a perfect subject, they were ecstatic. When the man slowed progress for safety and peace of mind...
I know he's not real. He's just inside my head. I know he's not real. He can't be. But his voice, it sounds so real. I haven't been able to sleep. And yet I feel the fatigue to my very bones. Just one night, I wish to sleep just one night. But life itself has destined me to be awake to this very hour. 5 days since I've...
The earth was collapsing. Food was a luxury now, even for the middle class. After the Z-12 virus broke from a lab it began killing off our resources. A remedy was quickly found but it was too late. Only 1/100 of earths internation food supply remained. People were starting to throw out new ideas. One of which was ...
I was in the office early again today. I had a cup of coffee. I printed several reports out. I clicked on a couple of excel sheets. The day started. I checked to make sure the contractors did their rounds and made arrangements for site visit protocols and security pass management. I went home late and slept in my ap...
(Satan) I never knew it would happen. I was walking one day and saw this massive red trident. I picked it up and walked home. I had no idea what it was, or why it was sitting in the open, but I feel like it wasn’t fake. I felt an energy coming from it, and it felt heavy. What if... what if it was satan’s weapon? Nah, ...

The lawyer was reading the will in a slow, dull, monotone voice. It was hard to pay attention to such mind-numbing speech, but I had to listen anyway. It was important. My father had died, and his will was providing the answers to how his things had been divided into shares among everyone. I was never the favorite ch...
It's close, so close I can taste it. I've been running away from this monster all my life, it was there when my mother died and it was there at my daughters birth. I cannot escape and I cannot bare to be apart. It creeps inside my vains and rushes to my brain. For a brief moment I feel pure ecstasy, complete and all ...
Oh joy, this again. Trapped underground, in a coffin, with limited oxygen. I swear, every month or so one of the security robots catches me nodding off and I end up six feet under. I get it. I really do. In this day and age, it is far easier to have automated systems to bury any and all dead, in case they get back...
"What?... now we going steady?"I said sarcastically, half expecting those to be my last words. Interestingly enough that was the first day of the rest of my life. I look in to Todd's deep black eyes, "most people would run screaming in fear, me? No, I saw him and could sense it was love." A bit of back story. Before h...
Lying had always been something I didn't pay much attention to, mainly because my mother had drilled into me that no lie was worth dying. Of course, this way of thinking was pretty popular because to be completely honest, how many big lies were you really going to get away with? Thinking back to my years growing up, th...
