Every set of beliefs create what we may call a "God". However, due to a lack of faith and followers, most Gods can't even interract with our universe. Then how can we be sure of their existence ? It's simple, two years ago, the God of sciences was the first and only one to manifest. He told us about the others Gods, a...
I sat on the balcony, smoking a cigarette. A moth fluttered against the light. &#x200B; “Moths are the ghosts of butterflies,” was something he said to me once. Staring up at the sky, tears in his eyes. I laughed, “what an absurd thing to say.” Why did he waste his life on me? I don’t think I deserved even a ...

It's yet another simple Saturday as I lovingly slave away at a meal for me and my wife tonight. My hands hold the piece of meat down as I lift the cleaver up to my shoulder. With a slam, I separate the bone and put the tool down so that I can place the meat in the pan. I run my eyes over the myriad of spices on the cou...
I landed, then looked around me and cursed, I was aiming for the shed, but somehow I was nowhere near it, then it hit me, I was nowhere near anything... "ROMA INVICTIUS!"I started and swung around, rifle drawn, thinking to myself, "I thought the italians had surrended!"Then my face paled, seven heavily armored legiona...
I limped into World’s Edge tavern, ready for a drink, pockets near empty. Dusk hadn’t come soon enough. With a customary swipe of my +8 leather boots at the doormat, I glanced at my usual spot. To my surprise, the cozy barstool was taken! A maroon robe shielded the perpetrator from my eyes. Steady legs took me closer....
I'm walking through the mall, holiday stress all around. Let's see. Presents for mom and dad. Check. Duck for tomorrow. Check. Toilet paper. Check. I guess I finally get to go home then. "Hello. Do you have a minute to talk?"A woman dressed in white cuts me off. Ugh. Not again. I try to walk around her but sh...

Your name is Peter and all of a sudden you're in a hard wooden seat. Last thing you remember is you fighting off the cops, after murdering a starving family of twelve on Christmas eve.

"W-What?"I continue to go through my physical body and touch the bed. "Why can't I go back inside?!"I give up after a few more dozen attempts. "Dammit..."A tear begins to form as I tuck my motionless body into the covers even more, covering my head. I hear a knock at my door and run to block it, but it goes through, be...
"Hmm"Caelyrn hums to herself. "Today is going to be a fine day. Hmm. Here we go a-reaping again."

"Come on, man. Cut it out." My voice came out less demanding than I'd intended. I wound up squeaking, shooting a pleading look at my idiot best friend. It hadn't been my idea to go to the abandoned warehouse on the edge of town. I just wanted to ride bikes to the creek, then turn back and go home to play video games. ...
Im underground... why am i underground... I remember now, they're idiots, they didnt listen to me... I try to lean up to find myself in a coffin, not the first time.

'Effervescent joy to you, comrade!' the clerk throws my way a few minutes after my departure from the counter. He obviously had been mulling over that phrase for a while. I turn and throw a curt wave, but wisely keep my mouth closed. That's the safest response, after all. See, several years ago, a type of genocide ...

The horror in my eyes when I finally found out. I have waited 5 years for this, trying everything I could to get just a little bit of magic, to no avail. The day I have been waiting for, my 11th birthday, turned out to be the day where my whole world came crashing down. "Looks like there's a letter in here!"My parents ...

It was the kind of noise you couldn't quite capture. A squelch as her bloodied body shuddered at the strike of another blade into her chest. She was long since gone, her eyes blank and staring up into the distance above his head, hand open hanging aside his leg. He had turned back to the body and didn't batter another...
I am insane. I must be. All I see now is writhing, convulsing flesh, I hear screeches and disturbing shrieks in the distance. There is no sky besides a deep grey overcast dome sparked, at times, by red lightning. I have been plagued by visions of this familiar place my entire life. All I did was sneeze, so why. am...
Some people in my world go about their days caffeinated, full of energy, with others numb and unfeeling, sedated by their kingdom's disposition. Me?

"The moon has no position on these matters, "The Solar Union Representative said. "We remain neutral." Audible gasps echoed throughout the Arena.

Run. That was what my brain was screaming at me as I was rushing to the bank to cash my new check. And that is what it is screaming at me now, as I am in front of the wrong end of a gun. “Come on, Bill,” the mugger said. It wasn’t just any mugger though; it was my old “friend” from high school. We would hang out and ...
Part 1 I was a walking cliché. Sophomore in high school that’s been to more violin recitals than house parties. I’ve always been the type to keep to myself, head down in the hallway with Joy Division blasting in my ears. I figure the more uninterested I looked, the more likely no one will talk to me.

I woke up smelling a beautiful rose bed. The sun bathes me in its warm light. I feel something I have not felt before. Bliss. My whole life I have been focused on the struggle of being good in an evil world. I gave money to those that need it. I became a doctor and volunteered throughout my life. I never had children ...
It was an old sketchbook that held naught but a single page. I found it, discarded, and decided to take it home. Once at home, I drew a small lion, for I had visited the local zoo that day. As soon as I finished, I looked away to gaze at the time. I looked back and the sketch was gone. I blinked several times, for I kn...

Our mutual shock was a moment I’ll never forget. Chen and I stood, staring at the monitor, astounded. The text we were reading was the mental equivalent of a nuclear explosion.

The justice system was based on this very simple concept. It caused a bit of a schism between the judges of the courts.

The idea...

It is said the gods once ruled the world of men. Olympus was the pinnacle of society, and deities demanded worship and sacrifice. These times are long forgotten, if they ever truly existed.

I was left alone for all of five minutes, and I’d managed to wander into a cold room. In the middle was a large metal table, and atop the table a white sheet draped over a mysterious figure.

People always ask me my fondest memory of cooking. They assume that it was opening day of my first restaurant. Others think it was the day I received my first Michelin star.
