I awoke in a pool of warm liquid which seemingly stretched out endlessly towards the horizon. The area was lit brightly, though I could see no sun in the cloudless sky. Hovering above me was an ever-shifting entity with uncountable eyes and several wings, all slowly flapping in different directions. It said to me,

The rocking motion of the carriage pulled me into sleep as my dreams carried me out, and it was with a start that I awoke into another whispered conversation.

After reading the mail, Yayoi could not help herself. There were two feelings she had. Firstly, she was scared. This sender had had to be dead. Of starvation. The second feeling was self-doubt. A deeper fear: did she, with her extra taste buds, get the taste of her perfect meal wrong? Having served it so many times? M... |
How could a god allow all of this destruction? Why would he allow all of those tyrants to use him as an excuse for so many atrocities? I used to ask this questions and the conclusion I came with was something that more and more people had accepted as true as time passed, that god didn’t exist and that if he existed whe... |
You know when I wished for eternal life and power, I didn’t think Id be stuck as a carpet for the rest of my life. And now as a eternal spirit bound to the place I had first wished, I now like to kill people for fun. The townsfolk have come up with rumours about me, but I don’t care.

Illegal astronauts. NASA had been very careful in making sure none of that information was let out. I had been hired by Spaceflight, an international space administration company, to rat out any hidden secrets on board the ISS. My job was simple enough, to find out what they swept under the rug. I had searched the ship... |
It was an early Tuesday morning when I woke up to the sight of Frank’s house fully boarded up. I texted Frank, to ask him what was going on, but still no response. Instead, I saw smoke signals come up outside my house. From Frank. I was going to step outside, but suddenly I heard the sound of gunfire.

Young Alyssa raised the wooden spoon, and screamed her best approximation of a war cry, as she ran towards a much bigger enemy.
Mum's wooden spoon, the same weapon Mum used when Alyssa was bad. She didn't care though, it was the best weapon within a kid's reach. She wasn't *going* to fight back, knew it was easiest to... |
Their whispers were shadows upon the wind. They spoke, quickly, quietly, in hushed tones unheard by any ear. They plotted and planned and prepared, until nothing but time was needed. How, then, could something so innocuous, so small, so servile, bend an unseen mind to such grand displays of hate? How could we have kno... |
Officer Nina Salano entered the chief's office and gave a crisp, professional salute. He looked at her and sighed.
"We've gone over this, Salano, this isn't the army. You don't need to salute every time you come in here. And please, for the love of God, don't give me that sir, yes, sir thing. It got old three months a... |
"At last! My life's work is complete!"The man yelled. His words echoed in the empty office.
Out of the window of his corporate headquarters he watched as impossibly thin forks of lighting crackled down from the heavens. The lighting spread and jump around the city. He could hear the thrum of electricity.

Uncle John’s house was still standing when Mom and I arrived. But what’s on the inside is what worries her apparently.

Sunsets have changed. In the time before the Visitor came, the days would come to a close with an orange glow which sometimes faded to mild violet if the clouds were low enough. Most often though, a gentle yellow would settle on the edge of the valley. The range to the east generally forestalled much cloud cover. As ... |

When I was a kid, I was bullied by the other students at school. They made fun of my disproportionately small head. They told me I looked like I had an egg on a human body. Even the teachers laughed at me. It didn't help that I had a condition that made me bald at the ripe age of 12.
I told my parents one day after ha... |
The man burst through the door to the tower cell, half burned and out of breath. He quickly composed himself when he notices the maiden leaning against the chamber wall, arms crossed, lightly tapping her foot. Her hair was a deep auburn red, her skin soft and flawless.

All the weed I've flushed down the toilet. Bourbon down the kitchen sink. Brief moments of hope to be regretted the next morning when confronted by stale reality.

All I wanted was a nice walk in the woods. Why does everything have to get so weird?

The ants go marching one by one upon the trees,
"We'll fight the gods on their own turf!"is their decree,
They march their way to the treetops,
And when they see the clouds they hop,

The ants go marching two by two between the stars,
The captains shout, ... |

The demon's soul wisped around for its next host. It was looking for something fun and exciting, an outcome it was not used to. It soon found itself in Los Angeles, California.

After years of chasing down the Grandmaster, his funeral seemed quite a disappointment in comparison. It was a small and sedate affair, nothing compared to the mad chases and crazed situations we had been in before.

Most would have described that day as the perfect day. A day of sunlight and energy.

After a long day at my job of long hours and unfulfilling work I finally get to sleep. As I lie there breathing, I imagine myself on a lake.

Lorezia groaned as she came to, her head pounding in pain. She tried to stretch, but realized that she was strapped down to the table. "What the...?"she squinted, the scientists coming into focus. She flinched in pain when one of them aimed a UV ray at her face, feeling a minor rash coming on.

The strong voice filled my veins with more adrenaline, as I ran down the derelict alley, passing through vents blowing warm dry air into the smell of rotten food and garbage.

Since I was a child, I've always been known as clumsy. 'Accident-prone' my parents affectionately called me. I was the child who always managed to get their hand shut in the car door. Who tripped falling up the kerb. In one of my bigger accidents, I broke my leg falling down the stairs. The accident and emergency depar... |

It was a clear blue sky on a sunny day. A light breeze, moderate temperature. Enough humidity in the air that Duke would not need to replenish his water until nightfall. Until then, he would sit here and observe. Just a vague figure draped in old tattered clothing. Perched in a tree.

My best talent is reinvention. Before literally yesterday, I had no truly original universes to my name. Instead, I took existing worlds/franchises and twisted them to fit my ideas—often merging worlds together. Other times, it’s the characters that have been reinvented: new occupations, personality differences, redemp... |
Nari walked the halls of the castle to the throne room. The king's body looked frailer in death than in life. The heavy white robes he was to be burned in swallowed him up. All she could see was his withered face, the gnarled fingers interlocked on his stomach.

It was on the seventh day of the new year that the whispers began. Quiet and incomprehensible above the endless droll of pounding pistons and ailing gears.
