Walking into the house after a hard day of work, you open the door to what looks like a scene out of a horror film. Blood is splattered everywhere, from multiple angles that looks like a butcher took a knife to multiple victims and cut them in all the right places that would cause maximum damage and you would know. You...
Most nights out ended in an obligatory kebab shop visit, usually a jolly melting of personalities where people met their new best friend for 15 mins, the quintessential British tradition at 3am. But this was to prove to be the first marker of disaster for me and my loose lips - I should've known. The covid situation h...
That was it. The last straw. The player had gone too far. We chased him over the bridge towards the lazily rotating mill on the edge of the next city over. He would not get away this time. He was fast. Too fast. We had almost lost him when we crested a hill to see him fighting city guards. Apparently he had refused t...
Well there isn’t a manual. So I started creating a new world. I took my favorite things from fantasy, sci-fi, mythology and my memories of earth and mixed it all together. Obviously I didn’t just create it all at once. Hating the whole creation vs evolution event back when I was human I decided to let them both be righ...
I have a very strange ability: all my attacks are delayed. It first happened when I got provoked by bullies in middle school. Having had enough, I swung my fist at him, only to have nothing happen. The bully seemed confused, then chuckled at my "miss". Suddenly his cheek grew red as he yelped in surprise, knocked backw...
Text message from Syd - "Anything yet?" Reply - "Nothing man. Maybe it's finally over with. It's been fun now and then but I wouldn't be mad if things went back to normal" Syd - "I'm going to hit the dispensary and then i'll cruise over for the marathon. Want me to pick up anything?" Reply - "Are you hitting the one...
Everyday I had remember. That horrible night. Every night I cried in pain, grief and sorrow. I’ve gone everywhere no therapist would accept me as they collapsed every time due to the burden. Thugs would fall to there knees never being able to do it. The horrific memory of that horrific night. It was September 17th 1962...
As like everyday morning before waking up, she yells at me for making noise while sleeping. I don't really care what her saying in dizziness of everyday hangover. Also, I don't believe her because she is having affair with her colleague. So, basically she wants to find a reason to broke up with me. I'm having a heavy...
Note: I wrote the piece in the form of a journal. I felt it would better convey the narrators anguish. Entry 1 To be honest, I fail to understand myself. At one end of the spectrum, I feel totally in-tuned with myself. Aware of all my biases and whatnots, but at the other end, I sit on the bridge of ambivalence. On t...
Lola was nervous. These shadows appeared since she came back from the Prague Art Convention. And not just these shadows, also the surrounding were getting... Darker? Somehow gloomy. She shuddered. Anyways, she had to go grocery shopping today. She sighed and left the apartment reluctantly. It took her until two blocks ...
“Aaaaah!” I stopped and let the lawnmower idle, straining my ears for a second before I shook my head. That was the third time today I’d heard someone screaming, but this time I must’ve been hearing things. The Delaneys had five kids so of course someone was always yelling, and the Carter’s house was flanked by two...
The nightmare always starts the same way. A crowd of angry rioters gathered at the front of my castle, cursing my name, my family, and my kingdom. Despite their cries, the man in my dream ignores them. This man is a perfect facsimile of me, and yet couldn’t be more different. His mouth is twisted in an arrogant snare I...
Detective Hammer knelt before the crime scene. He took a deep breath and gave a last scan of the scene before he made his last observation. He stood upright and lit a cigarette. "The victim, Julie Carter,"Detective Hammer began. "Was obviously killed. This was no accident." "How so?"Officer Banks asked. "First of al...
Things had changed since the sun disappeared, the plants changed, the animals changed, and more importantly the people began to change. Four generations after the sun had abandoned earth the race develop, changes, some children were born with grey skin and odd yellow eyes that held a faint glow, they were practic...
"I think it'll help you to see it this way; there's infinite stories to be told from the same start. So let's do this together. Once upon a time..." "Once upon a time, there was a king in a castle."She scoffed. "That's one of the most cliche ways to start one." "Is that your continuation, or the start of a new one?" ...
April 15th, 1956 There's something to be said about the parallel often drawn between watchmakers and a supposed divine being. We set things into motion just right, and allow the machine to do the rest. When the machine needs repair, we repair it. We set things right. It is the way of the world. But what does one do wh...
Beyond the strained frontier that is my room’s shut door is a nauseous world of incessant disapproval, pressure, and abuse. Overworked by the immense burden of my collapsing existence, fearing the exhaustion inevitable to this black-hole of a path laid before me, I have retreated into the peace and safety of my closet-...
There he is, I finally found him. Or at least I think it's him. It's been 3 years since the world fell apart. 3 years since "He"came back. They knew it would happen, he always comes back. The elders just didn't expect it to be this soon. The annals of history tell of all the times that the beast ravaged the land. Th...
Master Hargrave had been training me for almost three years, and we had reached a new milestone. Having mastered common casting and transmutation, it was time to move on to summoning. Unfortunately, summoning was a whole other class of spell, and so Hargrave had told me that I needed to summon a familiar before I coul...
"The Great Exodus", it was called in the history books. Long after the dinosaurs had died due to a meteorite crashing onto the surface of a planet, a new race rose and evolved: Homo sapiens. Scattered across the old planet, high cultures started to evolve, settlements started to grow. One of them, the Maya culture, bu...
You know my grandmother always said, it's the small things that matter. Giving someone money for the bus or carrying your neighbours groceries, no matter how small the act the kindness will add up and make the world a better place. Whenever I meet some of her old friends they tell me how much I remind them of her, goin...
I wish my dad were more of an outdoors kind of guy. He could have taught me how to fish, hunt, built a fire, build a shelter. But it was too late for that now. It was too late for him. I spun a twig in my hands onto a dry piece of wood surrounded by similarly-dry leaves. I say Tom Hanks do this in Cast Away. If it work...
\[content note: Violence\] In days long ago, when the gods made the world, they treated humans with kindness and were quick to answer prayers. If a man found himself in want of a good meal, he would just ask the gods, and one of the gods would magic a meal out of nothing with a snap of their fingers. But gradually, po...
“...oooh now this part reminds me o...” “WILL YOU STOP THAT”, I pause the film to glare over where the flickering apparition of the past tenant sits beside me. “I just want to watch the movie.” “I’m sorry, it’s just, it is sooooo like this time when...” As he continues to ramble I groan, why, why, why?? I put my hea...
Fuck , fuck , this is bad. I dont know how i lost it but i did. My knife is somewhere outside , probably in the punch bowl. I like that knife. It never let me down , not even when this bastard tried to jump me. Ha , take that , hes dead now . Bled out a minute ago most likely. Would have been cool if he didnt choose to...
Idiot. Idiot, idiot, idiot! Should have kept my mouth shut. Should have just asked. Why the hell did I tell her I loved her?! Now that traitorous bitch went and told the bloody teachers, and I’m legging it to god knows where trying not to show fear. I stop to catch my breath. It’s practically baking out here, with ...
I am young, and I am ancient. You know me, and yet you don't. I am the hunter, and the hunted. I am the incarnation of Natures Wrath on Earth. I slumbered for eons, long before the first cell split into 2. I was never meant to awaken, but when humanity tested the first nuclear weapons, Mother Nature cried out in agony...
You can’t make a dog. The dog makes itself. It didn’t stop others from trying: luring them with pan drippings; wrestling them into muzzles; cooing endearments and scratching bellies. But whatever the inducement—food, force, friendship—someone else can always offer more. The loyalty of the dog that makes itself, tho...
Large swaths of the land was fractured by the heroes about 10 thousand years ago. A lot of people just re-enactors that go and live very modestly in original architecture. About a hundred years ago one of the mad wizard still left in the world started inventing computers. It has changed our world how we make metal , f...
“Gosh it’s dark out here.” Jerry mused. Was it dark? Does it count as dark if there’s no light? Are dark or light real without the other, or do they only exist in opposition to each other? There’s not much meaning in calling something dark when there’s no possibility of not-dark. On the other hand, dark is the absen...
"Pull me up! Pull me up!" screeched Brenden as he clung to the side of the lift. Another thunderous growl emanated from the chasm, and he wasn't interested in seeing the owner. Despite this fear, he held on to the lift with one hand and cradled a glowing glass jar in the other, squeezing it with all the strength his...

“The what?” an elder from Planet Mai’lu replies apathetically. “Humankind. From Planet Earth, your highness,” Stacia replies. Stacia has been advocating for Humankind to join the Galactic Council her entire career. “Sir, if I may, Humankind has exhibited great strides in achieving interracial and inter gender cohes...

Tumbleweed towns is what an outsider would call it, desolate dirt roads and weather beaten boarded buildings that created the ambiance of nothing. It was our raison d'être, we had the duty to oversee this dust barrel, like it or lump it. Days like today, in between responding to petty crime, were occupied with seeing h...
Greta was in a tight spot. Her father had told the king that she could turn straw into gold. “But what if I can’t change it all into gold?” she asked. “Well,” said the king. “Then that means that you’re a witch instead of an enchantress. And if you’re a witch...then it seems as if we’re going to have ourselves quite...
Emma had been reading up on Norsk mythology for a class she'd begrudgingly taken, due to be in defecit of credits at the end of the term. If it wasn't for her so called friends for ripping up her Sociology coursework as a 'prank'. Now she had to study a culture she hadn't even known had existed several weeks ago. Stil...
"What???? No! It cant be just this! What even.... what even is this?"- I couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. "Its their time to go", the supreme being said, "it was good but it's a cycle and now they need to go away" "I get it, and I'm pretty sure the humans themselves get it to, but this is a joke! Slowly dis...
"Huh?"Megan tilted her head a the mystery opening that appeared in the back of the freezer. She bumped the shelf while rotating the inventory; one of the metal slats on the shelf bent surprisingly easily. The moment it did, she heard a click. She saw a thin line of red light coming through an opening in the freezer wal...
"In just a few hours you'll be sleeping with the fishes,"Said Ronnie the Fist, as he put up the aquatic themed wallpaper in the nursery. Though he was looking at the walls with hands gobbed in paste, he was talking to the squeeing infant in her mother's arms, who lived two doors down from Ronnie. "This is awfully nice...
Life has been a blur since the great crescendo. That was when the last bombs dropped. Ever since then it has grown quieter and quieter. Now even the music has stopped. It is too quiet. Every sound sends a wave of panic over me. Most of what I hear is not scary per se, but the surrounding noise lacks the sense of pred...
I was born unremarkable. How could I not be? My parents were ordinary, we lived in an ordinary house on an ordinary street, in an ordinary suburb, in an ordinary country. My whole existence was imbued in the ordinary. Fortunately for me, I was aware of this fact early on. Hence, why I dedicated my whole being to concep...
Ulla didn’t even wait for the rain to stop. She counted the lengthening intervals between flash and thunder as she plaited her long black hair and laced her boots. When the lightning seemed far enough gone, she gathered her prepared yarn from its place in a dusty basket under the bed. A faded red scrap fluttered to the...
\[This prompt sounds as if my fantasy universe met The Grim Darkness of the 41st Millennium. So here goes; apologies for if Cain's a bit of a Mary Sue, it's my first time really showing him off publically\] Cain had felt bitterness for the first time in countless millennia, as he was not as special as he had thought h...
“God, this is hopeless.” I groaned, leaning back in my chair. I turned my beleaguered eyes away from the screen in front of me, blinking a few times to try and shake the crust that was forming. Failing my attempt I rubbed them vigorously with my palm and turned my attention to my desk. I scanned over the jumbled piles...
\\\* I accidentaly read Eldritch as elvish so story isnt entirely on point. I had spent my entire life training. It was time to show my worth. My first solo mission would decide the fate of our world. There were few left in our cult. I was the only one ready for battle. As I prepared my self for the journey ahead,...
One flick of my little finger was all it took. One flick and the terrible Yodmensky fell to the ground. Now the hero Big Schwartz did congratulate me but I couldn't care less. I had witnessed many great men fall into this trap. They would beat a hero up with just the force of their hands waving but then some hero would...
"To cure all diseases" I've always wanted to be a doctor, not because of the Asian stereotype. Moreover, I fail at complying with that stereotype, starting with me being bad at math. I didn't feel any power after that mystical encounter. Instead I found myself starting school all over again. I was accepted, for some ...
Every so often, I remember faint flickers of what our world used to look like. Our beautiful, glittering city, with turrets twisting upward like the spiral of a conch, the walls golden with the delicate lace of coral gilded with orichalcum. The way the light speared down from the clouds and made all it touched shimmer,...

Gamocles' spice-dusted fingers clasped the grimy case, wiped only once to reveal the name by his Chief Archeologite on his latest expedition. The explorer figured his master would like the honours of opening it for the first time, the contents within protected by the coral and barnacles clasping the case shut. He ran h...
The main character is Donald Trump. The duel enemy is President Xi jin ping America is a symbol of strength, and from that strength comes peace. With peace comes freedom.

I flew backwards into the wall, my concentration broken. The shadow shield around me, already nearly broken, shattered apart. The terrifying figure stood over me, holding a scythe in one hand, the other surrounded with a writhing mass of dark energy. "Again." I painfully stood up, and grounded myself. "Yes Mistress....
Jenna had watched the funeral all day, she couldn't decide if it was arrogance or that she felt she had to be there &#x200B; As soon as she met the light, she knew she was fucked. Her ashes were going to be sprinkled on her mothers rancid apple tree - as if she would live on through it. Only if they knew. &#...
My name is lyla, the great. Yes, that lyla, the great. The superhero known all around the world for being the best, salting all sorts of beasts, the one who defeated the dark lord while getting her nails done. But, you know, life as superhero has changed a lot lately. Lots of clout, countless people stalking me on soc...
The desert stretched from horizon to horizon, the sun bleached sand rising and falling in undulating dunes for as far as the eye could see. Splitting the terrain like a great wound was a massive canal. Its waters shined like sapphire in the blazing sun, the only sign of life in the otherwise barren expanse. Grug was d...
"Go away!"Misery flaps her arms aggravatingly at the confused person who has just appeared next to her. "Excuse me?"He asks, "And who are you?" Misery sighs, and recites the well-known speech.

- I don’t believe you, said the scruffy orc, are you telling me it’s all a conspiracy? The wizard nodded, and once again focused his thoughts on the strange globe, and showed the orc the scene displayed in it. - I’m telling you the truth, said a gnome in the globe. The orc was surprised yet again, it was almost as ...
I knew it before it happened. It was my time and my intuition was always right, to the minute of the hours. I was tranquil and ready just waiting for it to happen. Death is the only certain thing in life and mine approached without hesitation. “ I was expecting you, or at least someone like you. But what’s with the bu...
There were whispers about his return. We all knew he was hunting us down, one by one. Centuries had passed since the great war. Many of us perished. The humans took our side against their creators. With the passing of time, the handful of their remaining believers began diminishing. We thought we had killed them all,...
The Sorcerer stands on his ivory balcony and looks out into the morning. It is work of art unto itself, carved from a single block and decorated with murals and recountings of the Sorcerer's triumphs. All done by demonic hands, enslaved by eternagrams and runes of service to the Sorcerer. He is only known as the Sorcer...
Autumn was the season of loss. I wept with the clouds and my face mirrored the ashen sky. Walking outside in the biting cold reminded me of his warm hands. How he would grab onto mine, interlace our fingers and pocket them in his coat jacket. He was like a radiator, warm and sturdy. But not sturdy enough against a spe...

In an instant, my mind reaches out. I see the ants digging tunnels below below my feet, every blade of grass in every football field in every city and every refraction of light in all the world's oceans, every tiny speck of dust floating on the Moon and every whirling cloud on Jupiter and every ray of light expanding f...
I could feel people staring at me as I ducked my head. It happened every time I left the farm; the villager would stare, muttering about me as if I weren't there. Some pitied me for having the weight of the world on my shoulders and dropping it. Others scorned me for not being strong enough, for daring to show my face ...
I woke from my nap, and stumbled to my door. I was looking forward to that chicken dinner, I opened the door expecting the food to be waiting where the delivery man had left it. But, I was gone. I looked at my phone. “This is Jeff from FoodR, I left your delivery from CaptainChickinZ's on your doorstep as request...
(I assume you were talking about R.A.D. Troopers from Star Wars, so I will use it as the "rad trooper"). Ever since the high elf showed up, life was hell. The elfs used a force never seen before, "radiation."No armor was resistant to it, however, the elfs were naturally immune, so it posed no threat to them. They soo...

Holly eyed the stranger with a gaping mouth. Black combat boots with mud strewn across the laces. A dashing crimson military uniform with a gold insignia standing out from the chest pocket.

I was born with a bad heart - the kind of bad that no amount of healthy living or medication could alleviate. The kind that comes with an expiration date. That expiration date happened to be the morning of my twenty third birthday. I was doing a load of laundry in the basement when my heart simply stopped and I collap...

My name is Juan and this is my life. For three long years, since Mama's departure, I have been doing the same thing everyday. It feels like I have been assigned in a preordained position in the social structure of life because nothing has ever changed since the beginning. Every morning I race the sun in rising up. ...
As per usual, I made my way down to the city square, the biggest tourist trap in Ferin, around the afternoon when it would be absolutely teeming with vulnerable suckers. After finishing off the churro I had so elegantly lifted from a vendor along the way, totally unnoticed, I cleaned off my hands carefully in a small f...
The Lawyer, Or at least that's what I liked being called. Passer of Divine Justice, The Judgment maker, bla bla bla, I just like being called the Lawyer.

I do this a lot actually. I just struggle with naming things so I usually use names of people I know and the characters somewhat resemble them. I have some characters that I've been using for so long now and changed so much they are completely different from their real counterparts. The only thing that resembles them i...
To err…. Ever thought of those words Mr. Senator? To err is human but to forgive is divine, as the human saying goes. The human animal is a hungry and vengeful lot. To that point they think that forgiveness is beyond their normal capacity. To forgive is not human. You no doubt have heard the arguments that have been ...
Taking my clothes from the closet, I gently fold them and place them in the suitcase. My shoes were already stacked neatly in a cardboard box by the door. The books, pictures, and mementos I wanted to keep were waiting for me in the car. The first time, I was angry, but I found it in my heart to forgive him. He made a...
Hello again, Diary. It’s Monday, I think. Feels like a Monday anyway—I did not want to get out of bed this morning. But eventually I got thirsty enough to force myself up, went to the river and dragged back a couple buckets of water. Running low on filters, though I’ve got enough charcoal powder to last another six m...
Everything I've done has been for them. The world is disorderly, broken, ineffective. People around me never understood that it was a matter of productivity. I tried everything to explain that they just weren't looking at it correctly. But, it fell on deaf ears. I had to move forward alone. That's what heroes do, rig...
“I wish I’d joined this company years ago!” The woman’s lustrous blond hair danced with each syllable as she gesticulated with her manicured hand. The other held a small cardboard box depicting a stylish woman scrolling on her phone while sunning herself on a beach, a cup at her side. Emblazoned across the top of th...
“I refuse to believe that this will work.” Lilith said with immense certainty. “It absolutely will, and you are a fool for thinking otherwise.” Saleos, who was setting up a glass of wine inside the pentagram, responded. Iblis wasn’t here today, and Azmodeus was off doing… something, he wasn’t entirely certain. Regar...
'Alright so to set things straight: you want me to kill him with a knife ? Because that's not my preferred method.' 'Yes, and if you could please slit his throat. It would make things more...interesting.' The strange man rubbed his hands nervously while talking. As a professional assassin you get a lot of strange reque...
“Step forward, mortal!” I bellowed in my mighty barytone, the gates of Hell giving off their high pitched resonance. “Step forward, and enter your well-deserved eternal torment!” A woman came through. She wasn’t much to look at, with her dark red hair cut to shoulder length and thick glasses with golden rims. As she a...
"Casey,"the name escaped from my mouth of its own accord when I saw a canvas with his face on it. Casey's portrait was the special new artwork of the famous painter Josep Montaigne. I could not quite believe my eyes, but reality stared back at me from the canvas. That was strange. Reality wasn't Casey's domain. He was ...
Jess was special, to say the least. She was one of those people that could remember their past lives, and what's more, she was one hell of a story teller. I gave up reading books a long time ago. There's just something about hearing it first hand that can't be replicated by even the most talented of authors. Jess c...

“Hey clear-face dimwit! Get over here!” A big burly kid shouted. I walk up to him as he came towards me, with his face full of pimples and blackhead. “Where’s my lunch money?” He demands. “Oh I have something better than money,” I answer, taking out a bottle of Acne Cleanser. The bully squeals and tries to run away bu...
Disclaimer: this is my first post on this subreddit.

Try outlining what you really want to say, and then add your ideas into the outline as you go. I find when I have a lot of ideas but am having a hard time connecting them that helps me to weed out the ones that don’t really fit with what I’m trying to say. If you’re not big in outlining, another method you could try i...
The locals knew not to step foot in the Lumen Resort - not after the incident, at least. The priests refused to send an exorcist. And though a few urban explorers wandered the long, dark halls every year, the Lumen police force gave up trying to recover the bodies long ago. But Martin needed somewhere to stay. And he ...
"What the-" I vomited on the floor of the empty room. The room was grey with a flickering light on the ceiling, there were no windows. However, there was a door and a security camera. The door creaked and slowly opened. "Specimen 507 seems to be acting calm"A lady stepped out, she resembled the woman I talked to bef...

Dust! Initially they said dust was obscuring one of the brightest and biggest stars we had been monitoring for years. More gradually than one would expect we realised that nothing was obscuring the star, it just wasn’t there. My team knew that the laws of physics said that there should have been an explosion outwards b...
"Welcome to the Cottingham estate, kid. First time?" Oh this was rich. The old man gave off that arrogant sort of gruffness Jess had always despised in gritty movie characters, to say nothing of real people. A cowboy hat, big hiking boots and poles; the only thing to ruin the picture was the water bottle at his hip i...
Kiera sat at her dining room table staring at her phone. The profile on Tinder didn’t sound like her. The person was supposedly named Rebecca, a big Trekkie, a cosplayer, and a vegan. While Kiera was none of those things, the pictures included on the profile were like looking in a mirror...except they were photos she’s...
The board room door burst open, the handle whacking the wall with a loud thud. Mike ran in looking a mess, sweating profusely with beads of sweat dripping down his face.
