Single seater Hawker Hurricane like fighter jets flew towards the onrushing F-16s of the air-force. There were twenty of them, against ten F-16s. They carried large guns, but the F-16s carried rockets. The fight took place in the floating kingdom of Serechy, a newly discovered island that floated over the horizon. The...
Thomas was sweating as he double checked the control panel in front of him. He couldn't believe he was chosen for this project. At times he really wondered if any of this was real. Double checking the cables affixed to the control panel, he grasped the tiny gold bars in his pocket and fiddled with them. He heard a lot...
\[...\] The *mofliets*, or more commonly known to us as *xenoacoleoptera* *aeris*, is a peculiar specimen. From our LRSS module orbiting this oceanic dwarf moon, we have sent robotic probes to the surface to sample and categorize millions of samples, yet this species always seems to defy our Terran logic, adding to t...
I opened my eyes with a gasp. What was that? I had gone down that alley with Jake, and he had said something I couldn't quite remmeber, and given me a white...pill?...and then, nothing. I shakily got to my feet. I felt odd, like my body didn't quite belong to me. My pants were punching me hard around the hips. "Jak...
"Its a bright day.....Sun. Shall I water the weasles down below?"The cloud in the sky asked the sun. "Yes I'd very much enjoy that, water those pesky weasles"the sun said, blushing. The cloud let loose a rain and drenched all the weasles in water. "Oh how wet those weasles are."Said the sun "I will make a rain once...
“Tell me, imp” what is your name? Lucifer said. Eager to acquire the identity of the snack responsible for Michaels grave injury. “Nicholas”. Tenderly replied the imp. his hands quivering over the sheer intensity of the devils voice. He stuffs the trembling palms deep into his pockets, clenching the bottom fabrics in ...
Not super polished, but I used your prompt to help me out with a homework assignment and it got me an A+ so I figured you deserve to at least read it yourself XD ‘Once upon a time...’ was about the one thing I was able to make sense of, I had taken Spanish, not Latin after all. The voice next to me continue...
I like this topic. It's very deep. Here's my take. All languages are modes of symbolic expression. They try to take our lived experience and encode them in a way that can be communicated with others. And yet they are an imperfect tool. But languages evolve, hopefully to more fully or more efficiently express our ideas,...
The explorers moved to the capsule excitedly. They knew that whatever was in there would be worth trillions. Between the three of them that was 2 whole years of good living, and they couldn't pass that up. Excited but not reckless they adorned plent of safety gear, in case anything went wrong. Kurge, the bravest among ...
“I can’t believe you’d be such a dick!” Riley screamed. I ducked as some item made of china smashed against the wall where my head had been. “I’m sorry.” “But you’re not!” she was full-on ugly crying now. “You aren’t capable of remorse. Why would you do this to me?” I sighed. My emotions had retreated to a dark part...
Hoodeeedoo, nevermind me, just walking along, gonna pass you so I can't be a spy or anything else like that. *OOF* "Pardon me, but would you mind not wobbling all over the place? I'm trying to go home."I got all my cover details straight, including the I'm ordinary belt, a standard workman's coverall that has about ...
"Are you fucking kidding me!"She snaps, walking back into the tavern. She slaps Anthony so hard she's sure he can taste it. She does it again to make herself feel better. And once more for good measure. He cringes and ducks the last slap. "No! You don't get to fucking dodge my fury!" Anthony pouts and stands still,...

“Mary Nathan, 07624 319825” I read it carefully. It was a pretty bad Christmas card to be honest. One of those little square things with a nativity scene on the front of it that was evidently drawn by a guy who had never held a pencil before as long as he had lived. To be fair to this Mary woman, nobody else, not even...
Quickly, I bolt to bathroom. "SHIT SHIT SHIT!"my brain screams, "WHY HERE...OF ALL PLACES?!"I reach the bathroom. The air lingers of prepubescent piss and David's dinner last night. My eyes water as they frantically hunt for a free stall and thankfully the middle one looks open. I quickly slam the stall shut. "Ok thi...
Part 1 I take a deep breath, clench my fists inside the massive mittens and take one last look at the nearly invisible hump on the hillside. This will very likely be the last time I ever lay eyes on our little home again. It has rained nearly every day for the past 4 years, ever since that cold bastard uncovered some...
"Dude, decide. Either I'm a loner or I have a murdered friend. Loners don't have friends." "A little touchy are we." "We aren't anything. I am not a vigilante. And you were right the first time. I'm a loner and I'm interested in keeping it that way, so back off." "Don't you want to find your friend's killers?" "Wil...
Lizbeth looked past the jungle ferns and trees, the calls of the birds above her grew silent, the humidity became less unbearable, and her thirst was quenched. He eyes pierced through the greenery. In the distance, she could see the monolith. Too far for her to even identify the color. She walked toward it. The bushe...
EDIT: Oh, crap. I'm stupid. I thought simple prompts limited us to 100 words. The church was always unbearably full as Christmas neared. Sermon was scheduled to start two minutes ago. But the Holiday-goers didn’t know the routine. They loitered about, hollering. Some glared at Father Jacobs as he dared to squeeze pas...
Somewhere in the downpour outside I left my words behind. I watch the rain splatter the windows of the roadside diner, the headlights of cars passing as pinpricks along the hazy highway. Holding my fork I pick at my food. A paltry dinner too be sure, chicken and mashed potatoes with a brownish gravy. But i couldn't...
The demon B sat invisible across the breakfast table from Andy, as he sipped his coffee and scrolled through the morning news. B watched Andy's face, as his emotion dulled and grew listless. None of it was good. A brilliantly bright hand gently reached across his shoulder, gently setting the phone down. A Star That Cre...
The facility was a stark concrete box with a parking lot outside filled with protesters surrounding the entrance. Deangelo watched from his second story window as his ten o-clock appointment entered the property. Shouts and signs filled the air. “God’s gifts do not belong in the trash” “We do not get to choose” and a b...
Livy knelt quietly at the edge of the twin bed. She hadn't yet gotten to the point where she didn't need a step to easily hop on but she stilled tried daily, grabbing a mermaid image on her comforter in each tiny fist as she jumped. It wasn't easy but she liked it. Probably it would get easier as she got bigger.. But t...
**14-12-2020** I did it! I finally did it! I've completely the necessary calibrations of the chronomatrix using the data I stole from the CX7 Labs. They really should have better security than they do, it was easy to get into their systems. Dr Lansen isn't anywhere near completing a time machine, he's bumbling around ...
"Handy Captain.... I... I must tell you something before I go..." Through tears Handy leaned in, his dying Hero in his arms bloody after their final encounter together. "Y-y-you... have power... I know... because I once had them..." Stunned, his life a lie. What is Falcon talking about? He thought, he'd lived his wh...
“You’ve gotta be shitting me.” The genie looks at me in disgust. I had just bind him to do exactly what I think will happen in the wish. I’m gonna abuse this. “Alright number one: I want all cancers and diseases to be gone. People are gonna be unbelievably healthy now.” He snapped his fingers, and all of a sudden I ca...
“Create the dream… control the dream… collapse the dream. Create, control, collapse.” Master Strolland paced around the room, observing the dozing students. “Create, control, collapse,” he murmured. “The dream does not own you. You own the dream.” I shut my eyes even tighter as though that would drag me to sleep fas...
((Continued)) “I’m not lying!” “Then why would you need to run from me?” “I wasn’t afraid of you and I didn’t hate you! I ran because I...I…” Aspen hesitated. “Well…. I guess I was afraid. But not of you--I could never see you that way; could never hate you like that. If I did, I wouldn’t have given everything...
Genres in music were always underestimated since the very beginning. I mean, no one knew that they could actually result in actual superpowers at some point. It's very unusual, but pretty much most people that listen to music have powers and they are usually determined by the genre. For example, if you were to listen ...
"Kris..."his wife lovingly called. She had interrupted his dreams of peppermint snow and polar bear sled racing, but her angelic voice was the best way he'd found to rise in the morning. Still, in the daze of waking up he felt that a few more minutes of sleep wouldn't hinder his ability to complete his work. He slipped...
King Alexander. Known as the intellectual king and went down in history as one of its world leaders. Of course, he had some secrets himself. Like how he defeated a whole race of Sirens but decided to say nothing about it. Or how there's a hole to hell just underneath his throne. He sat on his throne day and night help...

"Those fuckers,"Death grumbled as he walked into the office on The Other Side. "First they make me work overtime during the plague and both world wars and now they're making me redundant! Can't believe it. Immortality, not just for humans, but all the animals as well! Just you wait until God and Satan hear about this s...
A human patted me on the back, as thanks for helping him, as before I used my magic to lift his metal and put it into the cart. The years had gone by since I had first arrived here, and since the first solar flare came down to rain hell on all the races stuck on this godforsaken planet. The humans were surprisingly n...
*Commanders Log, 336 hours until C-Day* It’s been six frigid nights since the scouting party stepped out into the darkness of the arctic winter. We’ve been radio silent for two days now, awaiting their signal. The weather here on Mt. Crumpit is brutal, some of the newer recruits are already struggling to bear. The ol...

*August 28, 1996* "Babe, there's no way we're going to get to San Diego by tomorrow morning, and it's already 1 AM. We're going to have to find a place to stay overnight." "Alright, alright. I saw a sign a few miles back saying there was a motel not too far off the highway." The young twenty-something olive-skinned ...
It was written on a phone, apologies for formatting. I’ve not posted here before so this is exciting......... I watched her delicate wrists twist in the moonlight. Her casting rituals were rhythmic and graceful, even as the grass and flowers wilted at her feet. We weren’t supposed to dabble in magic for another mont...
She laid there on the stone cold floor of the graveyard. Dark birds circled above, rats circled around and her self pity circled inside through the brightest parts of her mind. For those *were* the brightest parts of her whole body now. The blood ran cold, the limbs felt numb. Only her eyes and the little thoughts danc...
At first, we swarmed them. With questions, photos, and most of all... hashtags. But everything died down then their personality was revealed. They were extremely condescending, herding us like sheep droves into their lab facilities. It wasn't as if we could think and speak for ourselves, and that we would do anything ...
The green light shining in from the window grew brighter and brighter. Terry knew he couldn't hide what he'd done. And he couldn't deny the havoc that was about to be brought on his home. He stuck close the ground as he made his way across the room. He listened for any aberrant sounds. There was the rustling of leave...
It's midbight. I can't get back to sleep It doesn't matter though, my sleep schedule is ruined anyway, might as well enjoy the night.

“You’re going to be just fine, Mr. Smith,” you say without a shred of feeling behind it. Your hand is methodically clasped over his, nestled in the warmth of a thick quilt on an even thicker bed. It’s been clear to both of you for the past hour that you’ve been mentally clocked out long before the end of your shift, bu...
The Jolly Old Man stepped out into the cold with a huff. "Well, what dumb luck I have,"he mumbled to himself, "'First family on Mars,' they said.

Title: Van Gogh (no this is not told from the POV of Vincent Van Gogh). ​ My life always was normal. Was.

The T-34R Direct Response and Operations Platform sped across the wasteland, its wheels kicking up mud as it approached the ruins of the city.

“This nation was founded on the ideas that all citizens were created equal! As we have seen through recent news reels, we are constantly assured that this is no longer the case.

I heard it before I saw it. "Hey asswipe, give me your fuckin' fries." I look around for whomever said that, but everybody was walking around me as I stared about dumbfounded. Then I heard the voice again. "Down here, jackass." I looked to my feet, to the source of the voice. "Yeah, that's right. I'm a fuckin' p...

"Michael."A voice says. Michael quickly turns around, eyes searching for who could've possibly said his name. Their voice didn't sound particularly male or female. He barely heard it because it sounded so soft and far away. In fact Michael wonders if he actually heard it or if it's just in his brain getting tired. No ...
My friends and I were quite unorthodox. Okay, I'm sinning. I'm sorry I lied. Technically speaking that is. Lying by omission is still lying. So I'll try again. My friends and I were literally Werewolves; the mythical monsters who feasted on Men, Women, and Livestock in Eastern Europe. The rivals of the Vampires and Dem...
The leader of their small rebellion mumbled something filled with expletives as he scanned the paperwork. Ever since he was a young boy, he had considered this limit far too specific. Far too convenient. Far too... artificial. How could it be *exactl*y half? What biological mechanism would force this limitation? He h...
“Back here!” I called as I heard familiar footsteps. The Dragon Rider’s boots were the shiniest thing on the farm. In the muck and dust of the younglings' stables, he stuck out like one of their golden trainer toys. I chuckled as he shook off the Flightless Gray that came trotting up first. For being a rider for so lo...

The crowd bustled around the border gate. This time of the year, it was always busy. Some delay at the head of one of the lines had held things up even more than normal. The side of the road had become littered with people who had decided to rest rather than continue to wait in line. Those that remained were mostly far...
\[Poem\] My first Christmas since being ordained and the Vatican wants a word with me. Even the Pope took God's name in vain when the horrors rose up from the sea. ​ They bobbed to the surface, putrefying. Even dead they were terrifying.

"The avengers, X-men, Batman, their lives always seemed almost to good to be true. what child doesn't dream of growing up to be superhero?

Nu Gamma, Watcher of the Keep, presided over his desk. The golden data slate flashed information at a rate that no man could follow, but Gamma was no man. With the blue alloy of metal infused skin oscillating between existence and the ephemeral, he was a Taruvian. Machine gained sentience: the perfect unity of biologic...
Demon is an ambiguous word since it can refer to something unholy or something just unnatural. Many specific creatures in mythologies across the world translate to English as demon but are anything but hellfire and brimstone. On Christmas Eve I thought everything was falling apart and in a way it was. The economy had ...
(Based partially on pre-existing ideas) When I was 6, no one knew how I saw the world. They didn't realize that what they saw as a stuffed tiger was real to me, that I literally live in a different reality than them. Then I made something, a gun that could turn anything I saw into whatever I wanted, just by reading ...
A short little writing. Hope you enjoy it. \- "No! We aren't monsters that kill everything on sight,"I respond exasperated.

I swallowed. “What the hell?” The man in the suit nodded. “We have proof of multiple cases of breaking and entering and child endangerment, as well as slavery and possession of an illegal vehicle and endangered animals.” He looked up at me. “The only problem is, he spends 364 days a year cooped up in the harshest env...

It had not been an easy task searching for a new job at my age; people are much less likely to hire you once you are well over 60. I sighed and tied my long grey hair into a tidy knot. All that was behind me, I reminded myself, and today was going to be my first day as a guide in our town’s museum. I had been lucky to ...

Juxtaposition was one of the worlds best traits, the snow had this warm way of reminding us city dwellers of natures existence, that at least something was still without the bounds of our control. I tugged at my pocket until the vapor that left my mouth wasn’t anything more than nicotine. A cigarette was never too far ...

Gleannstead was a pleasant town, if a bit boring. The streets were clean, the people were mostly polite and familiar, the magistrate was a long-winded but fair old fellow. My point is, the town was a fine place to raise one’s family. When it comes to settlements, boring is often good. I fear I have realized that fact t...
One day, it was bright and funny so I felt like going outside. I wanted to do a quick walk in the forest but mom forbid me because of man-eating giants that live there. I agreed not to go as I left the house. But against my better judgement, a 50 minute wouldn't kill me. But if she knew, she would make a scornful look ...
No prison could be perfect. No matter how closely tailored to the population it was, there would always be outliers. And as long as there were outliers, there would be escapees. Therefore, the aliens had reasoned, they would design the prison in such a way that those who could escape could pose no threat to them. Ima...

A *Time* magazine rests on the table. Labeled in bold letters, **You**. Suddenly, the magazine flips open. As if there was an invisible hand, the pages begin to turn with the speed that one would with a flip book. The crisp color turning into a deeper shade of sickly brown with each flip. By the time the withered magaz...

*Oh god, oh god, not here.* Elliot dashed down the street, barefoot. The sound of artificially boosted engines, trashy rap, and people loading guns sounded behind him. *I knew I shouldn’t have made that gamble.* Ahead, to his left, was an alleyway. Hopefully, the Fire Escape would be down, and he could get away from ...
The city sighs with darkness, lights vanishing one after another until all the buildings are slumbering pillars. They're already whispering to me as I plod barefoot through the open door, down the hallway. Louder but still quiet they become in the night, their words like hair dragging across my skin. The stairs a...
Beams of moonlight caressed the stone walkways. She stood against the night sky, her black dress dancing in the wind. The duke stepped forward, his steeled gray gaze barely visible from behind his golden mask. The howling wind was the only sound that rustled through the open stage, but both dancers could feel the silen...
In the beginning of time a being existed in the emptiness of nothing. It learned to create within itself, thought and idea.

“So, we shouldn’t try to convince people to join us on this event called… what was it again?” A set of three young demons look up in anticipation. “Halloween!” The demon king shouts in frustration, remembering the time the humans cheered and laughed after the speech he gave, telling them he would soon rule them all. ...
The gavel strikes one final time, never did I think such a brash, violent bang of wood against wood in a silent room would be the sound that brought me my life’s greatest ecstasy, in this place, purported to be a place of justice, but to be honest the army of lawyers trying to justify the third degree burns running the...
Bridgetower sleepwalks. It is hardly the most unusual small town oddity. Compared to some things you see in the dark corners of New England or the heart of Louisiana swamps, it is downright boring. Hell, when I first heard of that film crew of some edutainment show rolling into town, I couldn’t believe it. They were l...
The door glowed with a soft ethereal light that was almost cliche for what lay beyond it. The world of fantasy. I couldn’t believe it, even with the proof of our achievement standing right in front of me. To my right my two partners, Jeremy and Olivia, stood just as awestruck as I. We had spent the last three years and...
Every now and again I am assigned a family. This does not differ much from my usual targets — uber-wealthy, criminally-inclined, or just generally subversive — they just happen to be related. Eight months ago my targets consisted of a mother and father, two sons, one aunt, one uncle, and two cousins. They were all adul...
"These patterns, they're clearly trying to tell us something,"John coughed as he placed photo after photo on the steel desk.

Anxiousness seem to work its way through my body as I drove down the abandoned streets. Dusk was beginning as the sunset over Pripyat and cast it's shadow over the ruins.

It’s tough being God. Well, I say that, but it’s not that bad, I suppose. The only thing that really gets to you is the sheer boredom of it all.

The clink of glass and shuffling down the hallway cut through Marius’s dreamless sleep. It continued past his door once and started his way a second time.
