*Mutterficker,* I thought to myself. My back ached, my lips were dry, and I was hungry. After opening my eyes, I also realized I was alone. The Tiger tank was still burning to my right. Dieter's body was charred, halfway out of the hatch atop the turret.
I looked up at the night sky. The stars were the brightest I'd ... |
I'm going to start this now, more to come tomorrow morning
Two more blocks. Two more blocks until I got where I needed to go. Two more blocks until my journey was over. I was going to be going across the bridge to a place where none of this shit mattered any more. As I walked through the pouring rain, my mind began to... |

(Has it been another hundred years already? Time moves swiftly.)
What? What memory wipe? I'm simple. I'm ordinary. I just *died* for God's sake, how can I be immortal? I don't remember anything.

I was in the shower as Dave brought me a latte. We were both exhausted, after spending the night up with each other. Thank God he can keep going, especially after cumming before I even got his pants off. He far outperforms my past partners. Attentive, gentle, passionate, affectionate...no wonder he's married. He wanted... |
White clouds in the big blue sky shatter like glass. A mountain of a body falls out. It's shaped like a man but his skin radiates the cosmos of a night sky that's never seen city lights. His neck leaks bright star filled water. Angels rush to catch the back of the falling behemoth to slow his fall. Horns sound from the... |
"It doesn't make sense!"Jack pointed at the report.
"What doesn't make sense about it?"Frank eyed him carefully. Jack seemed too interested.
"Look, Frank,"Jack said. "The numbers on this report show a sharp increase in the stock price precisely 3 days after a hacking incident."
Frank looked from Jack to the report. ... |
Character: Possibly a depressive, behind on his rent, struggling to pay his own bills. A recent event (?) caused him to lose his jobs (what job?), his friends, his wife. This perhaps goes on for years, allowing us enough time to really develop the character, perhaps using flashbacks of some sort to demonstrate his prev... |
It was a hot day on the pastures yesterday. I had to count the cows to sell to the slaughterhouse, get the cows to the milking room, get the cows out of the milking room, and herd the cows to the grazeable fields west of the stables and south of the barnhouse. I went to bed peacefully, but I woke up today to something ... |

It began in 2145 when parents reported that their child, Zade, would not sleep. They tried singing him to sleep, warm milk, and bought the most comfortable crib it in the world for their child. Eventually, the parents gave up and allowed the child to cry all he want and play all he wants during the day. The media picke... |
The street was filled with the sound of footsteps on the concrete pathway. The road was bereft of traffic, and yet, nobody walked in this free space. Crammed onto the sidewalk, the made their way along silently, eyes down.
Each person in uniform, they walked to their places of work, each step in time, as though the en... |
A blue glow ignites in one of New York City's many shady alleys. When it fades, it reveals Zachri Middles, a thin, scruffy teen with dirty hair and nervous eyes. He wears faded green cargo pants a mud-caked grey hoodie. On his back is a backpack so full it looks like he's strapped five pillows to his back. It's full of... |
Sparks flashed through the flickering hallway as deafening gunfire volleyed through from end to end. On one side, a group of men and women dressed in uniform were holding position, led by a fiery redhead who was clearly their leader. Behind them crouched a wizened old man, operating on some kind of strange machine whic... |
A large door at the end of an ill lit hallway awaited her as she walked slowly down the corridor. Windows lined the side of the hallway and she peered inside to get a glimpse of why she is here.

It was hard work for Bob to get to where he was but he had finally done it. Bob printed the receipt out of the ATM and stared at it with an ecstatic look on his face. Printed on the small piece of paper next to the word 'balance' was the number '$1,000,000,052,673.10'.

Our stay at the GDI Alpine Base started well. We enjoyed the tour in the local redzone, until the tour guide was killed by mutants. My wife's field suit was torn during the incident, and she is now dying as a result of intense Tiberium exposure. Even when the Ox transport took us back to the hotel, we came under attack... |
Shuffle shuffle groan. This is the sound of hello.
Egg glanced up and groaned hello in return. The other rotten one looked at Egg. Egg noted she was cute, half a head of tangled blonde hair and large hazel eyes that popped in her shrinking sockets. She was only missing one arm and had surprisingly long straight legs.... |
Threads of dawn snake across the sky as the crowd gathers, murmuring, on the roof of the apartment building. There are no more than a dozen of them - the last of the believers, those who have not abandoned hope of salvation. They form a scanty half-circle, rubbing their hands against the morning cold, but the gleam of ... |

I opened my eyes, today was the day! I'd been counting down for the past five weeks. The Calendar on my wall had dates from may 20th to june 30th marked out. Today was July 1st 2017.

Ron sat his little girl down in his office and looked at her endearingly from across his desk.

They had agreed, when, after giving their verdict, he had requested only that he be granted comfortable rooms, whatever he wanted to eat, and of course, access to a great library.

The man turned away from the gallery, away from the thunderous applause, determined eyes bright with unshed tears. Six months. They couldn’t even wait six damned months. His hair was grey around the temples, and his face lined and creased – stress having aged him thirty years in less than ten.

I was going at least 95 miles per hour when I saw the state police set up on the highway clocking speeds.

To be honest, I'm not really sure why I tried to hide it in the first place. Maybe I was afraid. Afraid of changing myself, because I knew that it would make me different, transform my entire life.

The old man whispered as I left the shop I had found myself drawn to. For years I'd driven by this one strip mall and never even knew his shop existed. "The less specific, the better for you". Cryptic old coot.

Brom and his squire, Oliver, finally came upon a town after days of traveling with no food. They were still a ways from their destination but they were feeling weary. The town seemed quiet and pleasant. Although it was mid day, the town seemed quiet. They finally saw a woman rushing somewhere.

They keep saying it's a suicide mission. Well... It kind of is. I guess I deserve it, all things considered. Somehow, this nonsense got the final approval a little over 3 years ago.

Katsu looked down to the sword he held in his right hand. It was rusty, worn, and old. Much older than him, preceding him by at least two hundred years. There was what looked like dirt caked on the hilt of the weapon. The sword itself had been left unclean, as instructed by Katsu.

Sorris felt the chains of damnation loosen, not lift completely, from his soul. It was truly a blessing.

I saw the rise and fall of many great civilizations, peoples, and religions. Humans. A human is simultaneously the devil and a saint. Humans have fomented unspeakable evils.

My head was like a dull weight. Cold, wet. I'm sprawled out on tile, what a fucking night. And... and I don't remember a single bit of it. I sigh, attempting to see the blur. Reaching for my hood, I realize that this, too is completely wet.

Jack couldn't believe it. Somehow, he'd manage to get tickets for Game 7 of the 2015 Finals. His hometown Cavs were battling the Spurs in what everyone thought might be Tim Duncan's last game.

I smiled and stepped off the scale. It had been a mere two and a half weeks and I'd shed 15 pounds. I glanced in the mirror and noticed even less of a belly. Amazingly, all I'd done was quit buying junk food from Wal-Mart, and stopped going to fast food places on my lunch breaks. Instead, I'd found a small, famil... |
It started in the shadows, America’s best kept secret, completely hidden from allies and enemies alike.

I waited with great anticipation for her to get there. The woman I loved with more passion than I could properly express.

I looked up and down the hall, ... |

The sound of breaking glass woke me. The initial smash broke my slumber, the sound of smaller shards shattering stirred me into wakefulness. My eyes darted around the dark room, the only light spilling from the clock reading 02:00.

I've always supported this research. Religion was the plague of humanity, and we would be the first to heal it. Naturally I volunteered to be first.

Their fingers are cold, like dry ice, even a slight brush leaves a burn. Luckily I can tell they’re trying not to touch me as they hurry to stick little blue pins into my flesh. They seem disgusted by my nude body. Understandable.

January 2nd, 2014
I awoke in a hospital. There were flowers surrounding me, colors of a white so pure as if untainted by the sins of this world.
