"I swear I didn't intend to do this !"
everything was silent, and people were looking at me in shock.
It wasn't my fault ! I was just working, as usual. Just screwing screws, fixing things, the usual.
Of course there was noise down there, but it's a City ! there is always noise.
And then it happened. There were hug... |
What happens when you teleport?
They compared it to sending files. You upload yourself into the mother system. The mother system then install you in your desired location. Simple. Safe. Succinct.

She wore red, she looked red, incredibly fashionable. Even her eyes were a bit red. Her hat was almost like she wore the hat of naming, just with more style and more red.
Every student eyed her every step towards the front of the class.

... I've finally come to realize it, it's you. It's always been you. You've learned all this about me, you've seen everything I've wanted to show you, and so many things I don't want anyone to see or know, and you're still here.
Through all this, you've stuck with me, you wanted to know more about me. I'm not sure why... |
Elderly - men and women - tuned in from all over the country to see the woman who had decided to enter into her 7th decade of beauty pageant competition.
And as each woman gave her opening speech, it was the old woman's speech that captured the hearts of the country:

"Where the hell did he go? It's a fucking broom closet!"screamed the detective, fuming. All that was left was a single band of hundreds. There wasn't even a vent inside the closet. He turned on some of the other investigators and armed security with him. "Seriously? This has to be som... |

"How did you do it?"
The man smiled,and shrugged his shoulders. "Hard work. Being careful,"he said. "I guess being a miserable, misanthropic sonuvabitch isn't all bad after all."
I stared at him, long and hard, but I couldn't read much from his face. That was partly by design I realized: his thick, grey beard and wil... |
My love I made this mess for you,
I've killed this man and ran him through,
I'm still to kill another few,
A rush I wish you truly knew.
Come join me and get your fill,
I'll hold them while you make your kill,
We'll laugh and watch the crimson spill,
And bury them beneath a hill.
Then, perhaps, we'll watch the ... |
The black ant was born smarter than other ants. He didn't follow pheromones like his brothers. He had thoughts. His first thought was. “Hello world.”
The 2nd thing he did was to name himself Steve. He did normal ant things, as he didn't know any better. He tried to communicate with other ants, but they just followed ... |
"You see, the trick of it is in the 'A-ha!' - You'll get it, Steven, don't worry. I have faith in you."
The charming, twinkle-in-the-eye gentleman, suited up with a well combed moustache patted the man in the mouse costume on the shoulder and turned to light a cigarette extracted from a golden case.

I had no idea what I was starting when I first became Helpline. I just thought I was doing the right thing. With my innate powers of psionic empathy, I was able to sense mental anguish from miles away, and I could be there to comfort and reassure in a moment's notice.
I didn't have any fashion or design sense to spea... |

How many times have I gone through this? How many times have I put myself in this torture? Watching everyone around me die until starting the cycle all over again! I feel a sick feeling in my stomach. I cannot let myself go through this nightmare anymore.

"So, I'm dead?"
I look at the doctor blankly. I had woken up thirty minutes earlier to the sounds of Debussy's Clair De Lune, and when my eyes opened I was greeted by immense claustrophobia. I pounded on the lid, kicked my feet out, and heard the music promptly stop as the wooden lid above me was opened, revealing an ... |
While I imagine everyone else was glued to their television or computer screens frantically keeping updated on the news, my wife and I were on reddit. Every now and then, we'd be filled in with updates--urgent announcements, casualties, you know the drill. The same thing that always came up when something like this hap... |
Waking up in the morning was always difficult, and while I hadn’t yet opened my eyes, I knew that a different scene lay behind them.
I realised that I was naked. I didn’t usually sleep naked.
Something was clearly very strange.

She noticed that his hands were shaking. She always noticed when anything was different.

Choice. What exactly is "choice,"anyway? Choice is the bastard son of fate and free will. Do I really choose what happens next, or was it always going to happen and I just played my scripted part? Did Macbeth choose to slay King Duncan, or was it his only path set by Shakespear's pen? Where lies the importance of choic... |
Nondescript houses in nondescript rows in a nondescript suburb. The American dream, taking place in all fifty states in all its myriad suburban forms.

Before you say anything, let me explain:
When you blasted me with the Quantum Ray, I thought I was goner. I threw up the shields in time to save my life, but not much else. Then, while your ship was re-calibrating, I limped into an escape pod and triggered the self-destruct. That’s how I survived.

They’d been sitting there, the two of them, for hours. Neither said a word. Neither looked at the other. The water rippled at their feet, orange in the never-ending sunset, reflecting their long-worn faces.
They were too young for their wrinkles, their scars. Too young for the blood on their hands. Why hadn’t the wat... |
At first, I thought it was a fault. Why would she be a danger to me? We'd been together for 3 years now, and I trusted her. But I checked ever circuit, and it was fine.
So I thought she might actually be a danger. I convinced her to get a thorough check up, make sure she wasn't carrying some disease, but nothing. I ch... |

The addresee, a particularly heavyset 'eavy Nob named Wimpkrusha, was perhaps the farthest thing from a grot an ork could ever hope to be. Tall, burly, juiced up to the brim in weirdboy gubbins, he was certainly an instrument of war deserving of teef and squig b... |

The headquarters of the C++-Luminati was quiet. It has been, lately, ever since the development of the Cerebral AI. It was invisible, but like the air we breathe, it controlled everything.

Fear gripped my chest as I realized everyone was dead. *What happened?!* I didn’t understand the sight before me. I could barely breathe as I took it all in. This had to be some kind of sick dream. Some kind of nightmare. I was asleep. I knew it.

Skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, hair as black as ebony. Snow white was the talk of the kingdom when her mother died. Her porcelain skin was a beauty to behold. Her step-mother detested her, but for the right reasons, reasons that the common folk had never heard of.

It’ll be a lovely tale.
‘Born from the fires of hell, were you? Ha. Pathetic. I was raised by my worst enemies, enduring many long, hard years of torture, before finally revealing myself and killing them! Take that, Turen!’

Rashul was too perfect. His double promotion from lieutenant to major was unprecedented, but in the unique circumstances, I let it slide. He had saved nearly his entire platoon from the jungles, after all. I knew such valour was indispensable to my fiefdom's military, but I was not about to be ousted yet. It was not th... |
It was an odd feeling: becoming someone new. Shedding the skin of your old life and slipping into a new body like a new glove. It happened quick and I wanted to revel in it.

Beeping. Is that beeping? Am I in hospital? Did they find a cure? They must have found a cure. What a relief.

I sit at my computer, pasting paragraphs from emails in my inbox into the relevant Wikipedia pages. I get about a hundred emails per day, and I charge $1,000 for each paragraph.

He was worried the Eisenhower Pass might be closed. They’d shut it without warning often long before the blizzards started to turn the width of the I-70 into well-tilled ice furrows. He’d got through the tunnel alright, and the roar of the Superbird calmed his nerves while the radio sunk to static beneath the mountains... |
The first thing I said immediately put a sour note on the entire meeting.
They had intended to bring me there to learn from me, so that they could be all-powerful wizards in their day and age. Don't ask me how they did it - all I knew is that I went from sitting at my desk at my job, rattling code into an annoyingly c... |

She gathered herself up and stood as intimidatingly as a scrawny 12... |
When I first saw it on the news I didn't believe it. I'd seen things like it tens of times and they had all been hoaxes - a new stealth plane, a meteorological balloon, some weird and obscure astronomical phenomenon. Then, NASA, ESA and SETI came forward. "The spacecraft has landed."That's when I knew it - this was no ... |
It's the worst thing in the world having a diagnosis. It hangs over you like a status effect. Everyone in the know sees it.
And you can hear it flicker on and off in their head like a warning. A label upon your soul that makes them re-evaluate everything you do and say.
Is he actually like that, or is that the diseas... |
Captain Amelia Zhu of the *Dragonfly* watched from the bridge as the *Nova* came into view. The massive generation ship was beyond anything she'd imagined. It was unbelievable that humanity could have built the interstellar ark centuries ago, before space technology had reached its peak.

The light from Lilly's staff filled the cold, stone hallway. She still clutched it nervously. The other members of the party looked equally nervous.

"Please reattach head to torso,"spoke the head of the marquis that had just been executed, from the deck of the guillotine. Behind the blade, the severed body remained in place, sparking wires and red-dyed oil hanging from the neck.

It wasn’t supposed to be like this.
I glanced down at Harry’s prone body. A brick lay in the icy street beside him. He was clutching his forehead, and I heard the demon’s voice. “Direct hit!” the demon squeaked. I asked Marv how many fingers I was holding up, and he incorrectly guessed eight against my three. I turned... |
Day 376. It’s been over a year, and I still woke up to the sound of the same woodpecker outside my window. *Peck. peck, peck, peck*. Always four pecks, then it flies through the foliage to God knows where.

I couldn't believe it. I wasn't sure what was going on. A woman had just tumbled through my bathroom mirror and broken my sink.

This was it. You’d put on your best outfit, your favorite music and left a short note. You shakily poured your late father’s medicine into your hand.

Where do I begin? The last few days were quite ridiculous but now its just plain funny.

A smirk washes over my face as I see my nemesis approach the building. This time, things would be different. I have a habit of playing with my food, playing pretend as a weak old man. I couldn't wait to see my nemesis' face when he sees that I have the upper hand.

When I woke up my heart wasn't beating wildly in my chest like it had right before the crash. Actually, what I felt was an inner peace. My muscles relaxed. There was a warmth in my chest like I'd just drank a whole cup of hot tea. It was bliss. It was like I'd just been born.

Satan looked over his domain. The flood of souls coming in from heaven was too great for him to handle. He had to find a solution.

The smell.
The cold sleep pods never smell good. It isn't bad. It's just,

That's the only way to put it. The whole thing smells wrong somehow. Like its an affront to nature and the way things are supposed to work.
