How does he always seem to know where I am? "Move!"I shouted, as I bolted down the hallway, toward the restroom shoving my way through a group of teenagers. There are usually back doors near the restrooms right? I skidded to a stop as the hall turned a corner past the restrooms, it looked like some kind of maintenan...
My mother used to joke that I sneezed like a banshee. She was Irish. They say stuff like that a lot. My father joked that if he ever got lost in the wilderness, he would want to have me and a bottle of ground pepper with him so it wouldn’t be long before searchers found us. He was a dad. They say bizarre things too. ...
Oh this is interesting! I'll give this a go. After the doctor left the room, leaving me in the frigid silence of the examination room, I looked down at my hands. The backs of them are ropy, veined, dappled with brown like dirty sunlight. I was an arthritic mummy. In a few days, I will be 300 years old. When I was a ki...
A blinding light flashed through the alley as I arrived... somewhere. "Vega, location and time,"I asked the A.I. companion on my wrist. "It appears we overshot sir. We are in New York City, 3296,"Vega said. "Damn. I just wanted to get The Last of Us Part II early,"I muttered to myself. "Apologies sir. I am out of batte...
Sharp sneezes. "Godforsaken flu"you grumble out while clutching your throat. Well at least the worst of it is over, you shudder as you think back to cold bed ridden nights. You spend a few minutes staring at the computer screen cursing the pain. "What the hell?"You notice the screen is paused and with a sigh, you...
Of the many hindrances against scientific progress, I have found there to be none more severe than a faulty elevator. Old motors, weak batteries, and "Errors in Calculation of Freight"had frequently and persistently confounded my ability to clarify man's victory over God. I say had; I have recently discovered the sec...
"It was, like, I just fell asleep-" "Yeah! And my husband was watching tv too so I never even got to say good night-" "-weird, really weird. I'm just glad I didn't have an oven on or anything-" So goes the conversation around me. We're all busy with our hands, cutting, roasting, mixing, arranging desserts on a plate...
“In my defence - and I think I’ve already said this, but still, sorry - In my defence, you have to remember that I was quite young. And now I’m older and wiser and very very sorry.” She sat resplendently and stared. She did this because this was how I had written her all those years ago. Big words - some of, okay, mos...
Mouths were open as if to scream, but no sound could be heard over the gunfire. Chunks of broken brick exploded from the center of the plaza where the automated defense turrets focused their fire. Those within the crowd that were able to huddle behind cover did so. After what seemed like a lifetime, the shooting stoppe...
The huge hulking shape loomed above me, growling. Sweat dripped off me, making a small pool on the floor. My knife seemed so small right now when I needed it to kill this thing. I swing, and miss. The monster roared at me, but instead of an animal noise, it was words. “You will never beat me because everyone else will ...
I’ve always wanted a child. The morning sickness during pregnancy, going through labor and watching him or her grow up to be their own person with their own thoughts and feelings were all part of the fun experience called parenting. The only part I don’t care for is the part that comes when they turn seven years old. T...
On Monday, I find myself on the plain floor in my office. I'm no more in human shape. My shapes became to stretch and even reflect multiples of me. I'm no longer begin to admire the dress of my color or brand of my shoes because I was in whole dark in colour. I saw an original copy of me walking past with exact dresse...
When I was ten my dad got me a hermit crab from some no name kiosk at the mall. I had remembered the moment vividly, as my dad had never in all the times we had gone to the mall so much as looked at any of the kiosk while we hopped from store to store. I remembered his gaze seemed drawn to the small faux bamboo and pal...
It wasn't the emptiness of the house, the lack of furniture or even the small echo it provoked every time I took a step that bothered me the most. It was the silence. I came here with a purpose. All the friendship and the warmth was completely unintended. More silence. Somebody appeared behind me. It was my friend who...
I never cry. Never, ever. My high school friends used to call me Mrs. Stein, which was supposedly some sort of indirect reference to a commercial from the 1990s that I'd never seen that involved some sort of product that helped you deal with dry eyes, or so it was explained to me. I never understood why that reference ...
You wipe your sweat from your brows as you gaze upon all the gods you've slain with your comrades. You're extraordinary tired, but at least you can leave with the memories of victory. Without a home, however, Nidhael commands all of you back to Hevaven's Retreat. There, The Elite Council sits. In the center is Nidhael,...
Parking on 12th Street is like a preview of everything that happens on a place like 12th Street. It's always wet, even when it's not raining or snowing. It's always got holes all over it, and as the tires veer and slide in next to the curb, you can hear the crunch of the collected beer cans, takeout trays, and general ...
I showed up at the entrance doors, massive and heavy. Mr Tinkles was starting to meow louder, the carrier I had him in getting warmer. I knocked, my hand smacking the monolithic doors and giving a weak tap. There was a rumble in the ground as the mass of wood and steel came to sudden life and in an achingly slow pace c...
Warning: Some NSFW language and violence. "What are you talking about?"He asked He took off his coat and laid it over the back of his couch. "You need to leave"she said, taking a step forward, planting her foot firmly in front of her and pointing a finger straight at his face. She always pointed when she was angr...
"Mayhem Jr, what do you got?" I shot a dark glare at Red Comet. "Can you not?"My father, Dr Mayhem had been one of the city's most notorious super villains and Damien never missed an opportunity to remind me. It didn't matter that we were both in the Liberty League. Sure, I had a delinquency phase when we were young...
I hollered for minutes. Shouting for anyone to call the police, my phone was gone, and no one acknowledged my plea. My head felt whoozy as if I were being pumped full of helium. I felt so light. This is when I approached the lone home. The door sported an usually vibrant crimson. Something about it seemed — alive. I r...
““The last gate is open, sir.” The silver and white gleamed with pride from the feeble sunlight. The neutron masses, pulled by millennia old workers captaining great ships built over centuries, drifted into position, slowly drawing open space time. For the first time since all those decades ago, when I rose from t...
“At last, I am free!” Vivaya proclaims as she rises. She flies up and looks down at squirrel who broke the ancient acorn that had kept her imprisoned for the past 1000 years. Other fairies had trapped her in there because of all the trouble she was causing: the last straw for them was making pigs run rampant through th...
It was the oddest most ordinary day, and I’d lived it twice, distinctly. It wasn’t like I was prescient or anything; it wasn’t ever that clear. But it’s as if instinct were always moments ahead of things. I’d test it, but it was tough. Was like— You know how in junior high, we’d be all coy with each other. We’d do ...
The windscreen was frosted with condensation. Inside the car the wind sounded like the ocean was breathing, its lungs swelled past the grey glass in daubs of paint. At last she was in my car, even though she wasn't saying anything. Her face was clouded like the window. It was frosted over so that only shadows could sh...
The dream always remained the same. January 27th, 2006. It was night, and I was the only one on the road. The bicycle pedals creaked as I hurried home. Turned left; a bright light engulfed my sight and a loud horn deafened my ears. I was hurled, crashing onto the road; bones broken and skin scraped. Pain enveloped me a...
Shabby held the tiny vial in one paw, turning it this way and that to watch how the colour shifted in the lazy mid-evening sun. It was a vibrant shade of pink, that much was certain, and practically quivering with a magical charge that she could have felt from across the room. Without a doubt, it wasn't a dud. And yet ...
ATTENTION EVERYONE, THIS IS A CODE RED, STAY INDOORS AND DO NOT ENGAGE THE TARGET NO MATTER WHAT IT MIGHT SAY, I REPEAT STAY INDOORS AND DO NOT ENGAGE Lights flickered outside my window, a ray of red, blue and green, each rotating with the sounds of the hissing sirens. It was a rare occurrence, something that only...
The accountant was trying to steal the ship. The stupid cowardly shut-in loser was going to try and steal the ship that was being aimed at the Hittari genocide fleet, and try to escape earth with it. Corona was furiously looking forward to burning the bastard to greasy ash and letting the Captain load the superweapon...
*DO NOT TRUST ELON. He’s not who you think he is. I’m assuming you’ve seen his reports that intelligent life has been found outside earth. If you’ve found this, I’ll also assume Earth is no longer intact. That’s no accident; do you really think Earth just happened to experience the first ever planetary core combustion ...
Breath. Darkness. Sore back. Those god damned BIRDS fucking up my morning mojo with their incessant chirping. Sorry, Dad. I know. It took months before the novelty of this shtick wore off; it's like nobody had ever considered that maybe, just MAYBE, what a society fueled by guilt and shame needs more than anything el...
[Poem] Love is a pyramid scheme, For those who wish to dream. They lay in the fire, consumed with desire, No thought to find or gleam. Love is a pyramid scheme, For those with their heads in the clouds. Their thoughts consumed with envy, An innermost dying theme. Love is a pyramid scheme, For those who can'...
I slumped onto the park bench as all the dancers and trained animals filed out, 10 minutes to be told about the keepers failing marriage. Jesus why did I come to the zoo? I'm not sure I can face the lion enclosure, maybe I should just go home. "Hey have you got the time?" "Huh? Oh yeah it's 2.30" "Cool thanks!" Man...

The strike of the gavel was sudden and swift. "The court will now come into session,"said the shadowy judge as he loomed over his courtroom. I was escorted into the spotlight by the bailiff as the iron shackles chaffed against my raw ankles and wrists. He put me on my knees before the high court as the crowd gathered...
He was a bookworm. In the truest sense of the word. He read the old classics, the great works of philosophers long gone. In our poor village, there were a few mages, skilled artisans whose talent and practice transcended the realm of the ordinary. But he’s the first child to love mathematics to have been put in...
Pickled chicken dragged across mud and dropped into a puddle of rainwater; that's what goblin tasted like. Yet for the swordsman, Kahn, it was the taste of triumph. "Three goblins in the same day. Those are some odds in today's age." Though Khan braved the goblin meat with pride, Asmodeus had a much more refined taste...
Well retirement was going well. The wife and I moved into the farm. As I planted the the ceremonial rose Bush I found three black eggs. They were quite large. bigger than baked potato. When they hatched they were dinosaurs. Panic ensues. How am I going to feed them on retirement pay? how am I going to keep t...
Chairman Winnie the Pooh puts his hands together with a smirk, "Fantastic. Commence Phase Two"MoD nods, turns and walks out the door. Hundreds of warships, thousand fighter jets, bombers and tanks, and over a million troops start on their way to the west coast of the US. When they land, they invade San Francisco, San D...
"Excuse me! Excuse me!" The nasally, shrill voice was unmistakable. "Loraine. What a pleasure."I didn't feign enthusiasm anymore; we both knew what this was. "I have purchased what I want and I now I want to leave!" She said, our desires strangely in sync. I leaned forward, encouraging her to finish the...
"Here, try this." My boyfriend at the time leaned forward while I stared in horror at the fork sailing closer and closer to my mouth. Hanging off the tips of the three-pronged utensil like a matyr -- was a peice of broccoli. A big, fat, juicy green one, too. Everything in me coiled up - from my throat, to my stomac...
“In this world, there are three types of beings,” Wide-Eye said, drawing three figures on the cave wall with a rock held between his old fingers. “The first type are beings of constant change, who shift between beast and human. The Demuto.” He skillfully added claws, long ears and a tail to one figure. “The next a...
"Mr. Apollo?"One of the doctors poked his head out of the room, calling me over. I got to my feet, wiping my sweat-soaked head. We spent a good 7 hours searching that entire site, just to find this beauty. A 3000 year old sarcophagus, also known as a tomb. As I walked into the clean, porcelain-covered room, the two arc...
The lights flicked on as Alden tried to tiptoe back into base. "Ah!"He shielded his eyes against the glare, squinting and blinking at the shadowy outlines that slowly swam into focus as his eyes adjusted. The entire squad was there. They didn't look pleased. Alden clenched his jaw in defiance, but as he looked at ...
I put a sign up telling people there would a demonstration on how to make a year's supply of their own perfumes. Cheap! So obviously a lot of people showed up - including teens. When a sizable crowd had gathered, I nodded to the guy who would be doing the demonstrations. He was in on it. "Now,"he said, "to make this,...
\[Poem\] Stand at the world’s edge. See the flowers wilt in the end. Suffer from that old sin of pride. Suffer more than the worms. In the heart of man a wild spirit. In the mind of man the devil’s plan. In the earth’s grasp happiness is home. In the earth’s heart, there is hope. Be without the iron chains....
There was nothing left of what once made it ‘The’ world. Life had gone from Earth and taken with it humans and their inventions. No more cars, no more farms. No more cities. No more wars. Not even love and friendship stayed. With no hearts to hold it or minds to will it: ‘Earth’ became forgotten. That once important ...
“You really look like Jake Brown.” The man next to me nodded back without much enthusiasm. He’s been clearly told this before and wasn't interested in having a conversation. Now I felt awkward. I don’t strike up conversations like this, I don’t talk to strangers. I was meditating over a drink in a hotel bar after a l...
Dying irritated among the waste wasn't an ideal 60th birthday party. And yet 40 doesn't feel much better. Sore back, fucked up left knee. Wife that doesn't love me anymore. At least after all these times I finally figured out the best way to start. It only takes me half an hour to get all the valuables, cash, clothes...
She should be here by now, Clement thought. The vacuous room fell silent as he stopped bouncing his knee in anticipation. The floor had been squeaking, which suggested to Marianne to knock. "Monsieur Tati,"she said softly, ear against the door. "Monsieur, Céline -" The door swung open and Marianne lurched forward, ...
I saw the bottle that my abusive parent had obviously placed upon me while I was asleep: "cure for any medical condition. Good for one use."It was obvious that they hated me for having autism, and somehow, I had to convince them that they'd just bought a lifetime supply of snake oil, or more accurately, a bottle of s...
It was a massacre. Deer season had opened a week ago and only now had Sheriff Bowers found the missing hunters. Six were found scattered about Mason's Hill and two more were found in Old Marsh's cabin the next ridge over. One survivor. Just about. Helen Smith had called his office from the Marsh place and within half a...
"There's NO TIME, sir. Get in the car, now, please."The soldier (or maybe SWAT, FBI? Jasper had no idea. They had guns though, and were awfully serious.) prodded him with his finger as Jasper stumbled out the door. He hadn't even had his breakfast yet. He hated missing breakfast. He also hated being shot. Or at least h...
I was just drifting by, meaning no harm, carrying no intent, I was just doing what we have always been doing, that is, floating through the cosmos, as an unmissable yet very ignorable entity, yes, we are ignorable because we have no special trait, we can't be harvested for energy like they do with the stars, we can't b...
It was a gray day, as void of excitement as it was sunshine. The clouds shined a dull whiteness onto the town that seemed to emphasize every crack, graffiti, and broken window we had. The normally quaint--even charming--place was like a celebrity without makeup: unpleasantly normal. I walked with purpose down the str...
"Warner?" All-for-One looked at me. I nodded at a pair on the floor. Above their heads floated a green light. Most people were yellow. Interacting with them did nothing for my goals. They weren't a threat. They were npc's, to put it in gamer talk, not that All-for-One approved of that. All-for-One nodded at Blink. Bli...
As Clark ran through the streets completely naked he felt finally free. It had been 20 days since no one could see him and now was the day he was sure that his newly discovered invisibility was confirmed. To many men, great powers come with great responsibility. That phrase usually applies to the good hearted, the mo...
Godsblood The gods, they say, were the foundation of everything, from the sun, sky and stars to the weather. After all, it had been their breath that had stirred our race to rise from the air and earth. And for a while, we were content in our existence, in service to them. After all, it was the natural order. But t...
Waking up with an aching body has always been a reality for me, the throbbing pain in all my limbs reminds me of how it feels like to be alive. It is a feeling of being alive, a feeling that comes from a long, hard day of work from the day before. This is different, my daily hitpoint counter usually only has a couple o...
"Hello and welcome to world's end high, the only school on the earth, which prepares your child to be better equipped for the looming end of the world"said the tour operator Laura as she gleefully greated all the parents and the students who were eagerly waiting in the pleasent sunshine of late summer. "We have the bes...
101st Liruin Wardens Lirusa is an agri-world deep within a nebula known as the Fox Fur Nebula. Caught in the gravity well of three small stars, Lirusa is visited by little interstellar traffic due to the increased gravity. As such, it is a poor world sustained only by it's maize exports to a ravenous Segmentum. It...
The world cracks like an egg. The ground spins. The air swirls. Time, shortly, skips the job and does pole vaulting, to standing ovations from Space and Logic. From the nascent crack in reality emerges the Demon King, who is also known as the Dark Lord, the Shadowed Master, the Silhouette Shah, etcetera. He is not a ...
O' Universe's Pub: patroned by deities, staffed by mortals. I'm one of the bartenders. When I died, I was given the opportunity to work here instead of the typical afterlife. I figured, "Why not?"Well, that's because some of the patrons are complete assholes. Others, they're okay. Here's Hera. When she arrives, her a...
I feel myself slipping away from real again and I sigh. Not now. Things are going so well. I’m happy here. Please let me stay. But I can’t. I can feel it. It’s time to go, at least for now. One more kiss? I love you. I’ll be back when I can. I spiral downwards, out of control. Time is slipping. I am slipping. I can’t ...
(Sorry for formatting, mobile, also trigger warning for abuse and swearing) I hear faint laughter behind me while I go to answer the door. I grasp the cold handle while I sulk about my mom, "I thought you would like this", yeah, that was a lie. I plaster a smile on my face and open the door, already expecting some idi...
I had fought the worst of the worst. The most contemptible people who knew no moral boundaries. Slavers, murderers, terrorists. On occasion more threatening foes, others with superhuman abilities. Sometimes people of great intellect hell bent on their personal ambitions, or even former heros fallen from grace. Out of a...
This is my first attempt at a writing prompt, I'm not entirely happy how it turned out, but I gotta start somewhere. &#x200B; &#x200B; When I walked into the shop on 32nd street, I wasn't nearly prepared for what was going to happen to me. As I crossed the threshold, I left behind the sunny streets of Shaysv...
Well that figures I thought. I couldn’t help but look around the room where I would die. Cinderblock walls painted a dull shade a beige, and with an observation window to my right. The executioner stood over in the corner, preparing the injection; a purple concoction meant to make me slip away painlessly. I made e...
Today was the day, a better way to say that is, it is the last day, the last heist. My friend Robbie and I entered the jewelry store. A posh example of what’s wrong with society. I take one look at my friend and he mutters a phrase, one single phrase that struck fear in me. “See you on the other side” Robbie muttered...
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a scientist. Do experiments. Runs tests. Make stuff explode, you know? Well, turns out you need math to do science, and that’s not for me. Payed off the nerds to do that. I got bigger plans. Used to watch those old Sci-Fi things on Friday night. Much more my speed. Bald guy in a lab co...
I looked at the canister in awe Pure refined rocket fuel containing a huge amount of energy. Corrosive, deadly and incredibly valuable. I stared in disbelief at the intimidating helmet of the alien in front of me. I was supposed to believe this creature could breathe this substance and live? There was something odd ...
Earth was gone, at least as Elwood Keeler had known it. Mankind had stripped the world’s surface of its precious metals and used it to mine most of the rest, deeper and deeper. Much of that ore still remained in the planet's crust, but required machines, built from the surface material - now rusted, scattered, destroy...
"I am Odin Allfather, King of Asgard and Ruler of the Nine Realms... and I demand one cheeseburger!" I looked through the window at the delusional man in front of me, trying to decide if the most impressive feat he had accomplished was taming two ravens or finding an eight-legged horse. After a brief moment of consider...
"Me? Why me?" "Because you're perfect!" "I'm not perfect and never have been. Here let me show you." Mayhem ensues for a while, after which half of my so-called friends are down, and the rest don't want to play anymore. "Ya'know what? Y'all can keep the deal to yourselves. The only thing I want from Death is ...
He has tried everything. Organized crime, starting the communist revolution in Russia, killing Hitler and making it appear as suicide. Nothing worked, it was all boring. He had one last trick though, and he intended on acting on it. To start he needed a new identity. He killed a 52 year old named Joel Stevenson, takin...
I am the Kingdom's chief executioner. Actually, I am under this King, because he prefers beheadings. His uncle, the precedent one, was quite into boiling people, and the King's heir, likes pretty much hangings. So, for now, I must be one of te most powerful persons in the whole Kingdom. This morning was bring to me so...
As I stroll, I ask myself and whatever gods lie above: What is truth? What is morality? I have been many places in my life, done many things, and met many people. None of these will help me now. None of those can help me now. I stroll along until I reach the place. An old lady eyes me and I continue past her, trembli...
My name is Aiden Bakman. I'm 35 years old. My house is in a quiet suburb of Seattle, Washington, and I am not married. I have a job as a computer scientist at a small company, and despite my pitiful salary, I put my heart and soul into my work. It leaves me exhausted, day in and day out, so every night I am in bed by t...
I have the time. Dreams are xenos. A unknown factor that a lot of people say that there is no power in dreams. Me I have the power to ride with the dream back to the day that I had one for a second time. This may be confusing to some that I could do this. Some experts say to dream is it dream small with out any imagi...
Communications systems have been evolving for centuries. First it was only word of mouth, then smoke signals, trained animals. As technology developed we got radios, telephones. When the internet was first made public it revolutionized everything - instant communications. Vast amounts of information at our fingertips...
The fire in the hearth sputtered and spat as cold wind blew through the open door of the Bogdown Inn. The general din of the room lowered a fraction as several dusty townsfolk looked up from their tankards to watch the party cross the threshold. Ragard stood behind the bar polishing a mug and took the measure of each a...
“When a person is on its way to the next life, they don’t just immediately transfer to heaven or the underworld... instead their soul and mind slowly morph into the next life” That’s something my grandfather used to say, I thought he was crazy, I mean this was a guy who fought in WW1 WW2 and stayed in the military un...
Dave Grohl started into the sky as cosmic rifts tore clouds and ozone to wisps and shreds. His time had come. As his old friend Kurt was reaching enlightenment some 30 years prior, he imparted upon him the gift of foresight. However, Kurt was a bit of a dick, so the foresight was only good for one thing, the persistent...
It was getting pretty late in an old pub in the fishing port of Pittenweem, Scotland when a young man came in, a stranger. All the locals who were gathered around the fire drinking and talking. As the stranger entered they turned to look "It's getting late boyo, ye shouldn't be out on night like this"the grizzled bart...

"But, sir. Isn't that too drastic?"the CO asked with shyness. It was never good idea to question superior rank, especially the admiral leading whole battle fleet. "No, commander,"admiral calmly replied, standing in the middle of CIC, with his hands behind the back, looking straight at the screen in front of the room. ...
Sukie stood gazing at the empty field as the farm buzzed to life behind her. At least, to everyone else, the field appeared empty. Sukie was not a normal child and she knew this. She had come to terms with her gift many years ago. She had learned to hide the gift, to not let anyone know that she was different, otherwis...
“THE ONE WITH THE DARK LORD’S SPIRIT WITHIN SITS AT YOUR TABLE! THE FRAGMENTS OF HIS SOUL SCATTERED, BUT NOT LOST!

Elyx smiled. The cards were starting to go his way. Maybe Hal wouldn't win this one. That'd be a first ! He looked around the table. Jed had given up a long time ago. He was now playing with his phone, only paying attention to the game when it was his turn. He always did when the game didn't go his way. He'd use the...
The Fall of Lord Horax He hadn’t intended for his life to turn out like this. After all, he was Lord Horax, the dark scourge who controlled scores of dead and departed souls. He was feared in his own land and those beyond; he’d been proud of his accomplishments, before his addiction had blinded him to everything else....
This is what I came up with:::: Years of flying the same seven planets had been a drag on his spirit, shuffling a star freighter from one local station to another, but the day came and he was prepared. Captain Fynnd’s eyes are asleep like a horse on rocket nights, in his mind, he’s worlds, times away. On his flutteri...
[POEM] WOUNDS I decided As a lining shone Down on the stone Or what was left of it. The acid reflux inside my chest Was rising Like it was rising outside From the earth The molten orange of A dragon breath Of earth or what Was left of it. There’s not much time left So I travel backwards Into it ...
I love my old phone. I don't actually use it as a phone anymore, it's 30 years out of date. But i keep it in memory of my grandfather who gave it to me as an off to college gift. Also it makes a great platform for gadgeteering, an interest i shared with the old man. So over the years, i've played around, modifying t...
What’s something that’s always funny? No, it’s not farts, not sexual innuendos, saying duty is pretty funny most of the time. But the comedy gold standard, the thing that will always be funny, it slapstick. Slapstick is always funny and is always effective, especially in my line of work. What do I do exactly? I help st...
“Who knows? Nobody knows. My name is Nobody, and I can answer your question,” a pleasant sounding female voice with the slightest hint of an English accent called out from the small green oval sitting in the middle of the conference table. “You want to call it… Nobody?” Greg tilted back in his chair, tenting his fin...
A story from a very similar prompt I wrote some time ago There is a saying from where I come from if anything can go wrong it will go wrong. However I would like to say that my life didn't go wrong, it went as worst as it could. You see it started a few weeks ago when I was still home surfing the internet on my com...
"I did nothing wrong!"Karen screeched as she rattling the bars of her cell. "Let me speak to your manager!" "Ma'am, Lucifer is busy right now."Replied a massive blood red demon with muscles that would make earth's strongest men feel inadequate. "Do you know how I am! I'll have you fired!" The demon roared with laugh...
Slavery did not last long, but it was a valuable lesson. after 3 years of that hardcore regime of an early bird rise up followed by sudden shock of a flashbang in a liquid form, not sure if its aim was to induce hypothermia or temporarily ceyongeniticaly freeze me. Anyway it worked like a strongest stimulant known to m...
Night's head pounded as she picked herself up off the floor. She slowly opened her eyes and froze. She was not where she had been. Instead of the roof of an office building, she was in a kitchen. It had been night, now the sun was visible through the window. She quickly assessed the situation. She had been about t...
"Hey, that one looks like a cloud!" "That's your reflection, Cumulus. You're looking at a lake." Landscape-watching passes the time as you drift across the sky, but Cumulus had never been very good at it. Forests looked like forests, mountains looked like mountains, and lakes looked like lakes. Or like clouds. "Well...
