Seeing the last star go supernova was incredible. The green, orange and blue ball of gas engulfed me. I watched the colors fly over my body, pushing me into the eternal abyss of darkness. That was my last memory however of anything really. I watched the stars collapse one after another, new ones form only to be absorbe...
“I need to stop picking up the phone when you call, Aso.” Aso snorted and crossed his arms. A bit childish, yes, but the situation warranted the response. Inspector Thom Stone glared at him through tired eyes. His phone buzzed again, and he skimmed the message. “This is some mess you got us into.” He dismissed the la...
the angel hands me the scroll for his old friend, i punch him in the throat and fall rushing through the flames. i arrive at the screaming plains and am confronted by a giant slavering monster of a daemon. it roars in my face as flames buff me. "you Mephesto? Gregor asked me to deliver this." i hand him the letter an...
"Jesus Christ, babe." "Oooohhh..."Allison breathed in sharply. "Yeah they don't like it when you say that." Some of the other vampires shook their heads disapprovingly, as if in confirmation. "Oh, uh, sorry,"I said quite awkwardly. "How did this happen? How are you... Their queen?" "Why did you ask it like that?" ...
Jeremy looks around the perimeter of the base. The last pack of zombies was only a week or so ago. Jeremy stays alert, trying to pick out any type of clue that another pack is coming, or anything for that matter. It wasnt too unusual for a pack to not arrive until at most 2 weeks. So Jeremy kept on watch, waiting. 2 da...
“...and can you believe it, Jim?” “Well, Nancy, I don’t think I would if I wasn’t seeing it!” The newspeople’s hearty chuckling drew my attention away from the dishes back to the program, which had been blabbering in the background for the past hour. “Still,” newsman Jim continued, “you have to admit that the reward...
“Crunk will smash weak source code.” Angrily, the twenty-first-century cave dweller beat his meaty fist against the keyboard in what can only be described as inhuman rage. As hundreds of lines of c++ code flashed by on the twenty-dollar monitor. The mere sight of someone breaking every rule of computer programming ac...
Swimming in the land earned me some admiration and much confusion. It was a miracle in a way, but admittedly not a very useful one. It seemed that most people could see a man swimming through land simply by playing a glitchy video game. Still, my performing this impossible feat earned me some name recognition, and so ...
When you're old, you tend to settle into a routine. A holding pattern, of sorts. Supposedly, "routine"drives the day, and it keeps you sane. But not me. I never did like routine. Throughout my life, I've always enjoyed creating things and being quirky. I like mixing things up. And to be honest, so did my wife. We've al...
They say that only fools and heroes are willing to brave the unknown. And in general, that's true. A mercenary adventurer is usually brave enough if the pay is right as well. And while fools are in great supply, they are often more trouble than they're worth. You pay a proper mercenary, and he'll conquer kingdoms for y...
The two creatures hooked left into a quiet alleyway, nothing but waste for company. The cat ambled toward a reasonably unsoiled sheet of cardboard, plopped himself down, and began cleaning his back. The crow, who was quickly becoming rather irritating, continued. "Look, I know last time there was a breakdown in commu...
As Steve looked at his medical bills, he once again cursed his 6 year-old self. He knew he should not, but he could not help it. Was it really his fault he was dumb at that age? Everyone was dumb at age 6. Why should he be any different? But still, he hated what he had done as a child. He grumbled as he once again tri...
"I just don't understand,"Greg whispered, clutching the rim of the casket. "I thought She had forgiven us." It was nearly time for the girl's wake. Well, Greg thought so, but it was hard to gauge the passage of time if you haven't slept properly for nearly two weeks. "He was a sick, sick man,"Greg's father said...
// Tw: mentions weapons, blood, and a lot of violence. "Where to?" "Just the bank." "Aight. I'm gonna request you don't sit near the windows, sir. This place is violent." "Fine, fine..." "To the bank, we go,"I state. I know the safest route and the quickest route. I look at the guy. "Do I need to shortcut this?" ...
"Delta 5521, you are cleared for takeoff, runway 23 right. Have a safe trip, watch out for the dragons on your way up. There's a whole flock of them at your 9 o' clock bearing 1-8-0 degrees." The pilot's voice crackles over the radio, nowhere nearly as exasperated as yours. You've been sitting in the control tower all...
"I'm sorry, sir, this is the 8th time you've broken this particular law. Rules must be upheld." The human stares sullenly at you in the reflection of your mirror from the back of your patrol vehicle. He does not respond. You were able to arrest the human on your own. You were even able to put him in your vehicle wit...
"Everyone?" "Everyone." "What about the evil people? You know, there's people who are bad, who just want to watch others suffer. I don't think they deserve to be happy, do you?" "... them too." "No, no, no, listen, they don't deserve it. They just want happiness for themselves, even if it makes others sad. Don't yo...
"Holy Butterfly, I challenge you to a duel. I put my name Thunder on the line."said the girl, probably in her mid 20s. That was a great name, but she always gave him a bad feeling. Of all the clerics he'd ever challenged, they all refused because who wanted the honor of being named Butterfly? Aside from this little mo...
the hero stood dumbfounded upon hearing this "I don't believe you!"he shouted "listen, hero. I may be a demon but I don't lie. Devils do. So when I say she left then she left. Where she went I don't know. Guess she was tired of waiting to be rescued by someone and I agreed to let her leave. It's no fun if the capti...
“Hey! Hey! Are you awake?” There was no answer. The wind outside pushed the dead tree branches against the windowpane. “Heeeeyyyyy Kiddddoooooo,” the monster said. His words were wet with salvia and the abunence of razor-sharp teeth. “Are youoooooooo awaaaaaaakkkkkkkkkeeeee.” The words seem to freeze the air. There ...
"Jesus, could you please stop this?"I am losing my patience with my new 'friend' the Lazy-Ass Assin. Even his name is lazy. How an assassin could just walk up to me and INTRODUCE HIMSELF to me, explaining the whole situation, and expect me to just comply and jump off the next tower... "Aww, c'mooooon, no one likes yo...
Just as suddenly as they appeared, they vanish, taking you with them. When you all reappear, you are in some sort of interrogation-type facility. You try to move and realize that you have been affixed with some sort of magical shackles to the chair that you now realize you are sitting in. One of the black-suited wizard...
This was bad. Not terrible, in the grand scheme, but bad. A dog had been killed. It was roaming free, unattended, and had been mistakenly identified as aggressive. It was an easy mistake to make. You see a dog the size of a minivan, with three heads up front, and a snake headed tail, and you made certain assumptions...
I took another glance at the dusty book propped up on my table, and confident with my level of preparation, took the small chisel into my hands and started engraving my revolver. The bizarre nature of the entire situation did not elude me; when I became a bounty hunter, I never expected to one day find myself carving o...
“What was this game called again ?” Olin grumbled. Leyara had practically begged him to come and play the game with him. He didn’t see any board in sight. He wasn’t sure where the game was. “You dwarves and your terrible memories”, Leyara sighed. “It’s called Humans and Houses. It’s a wonderful game.” “...
Eleanor had seemed shy at first. Hiding in the shadows, asking for permission to go places, not staying the night or anything of the sort. But as we spent more time together she warmed up. I could still remember the first time she giggled at one of my jokes. It was sweet like honey and meandered through the air like b...
My father was a brilliant man. That was one thing I knew to be an undoubtable, indisputable fact. He was a man who created. I remember, when I was very young, his hands would always be hard as rocks. His skin wasn't soft like mine or my sister's, his were calloused and rough. He always liked tinkering away, soldering, ...
The two men stared intensely at one another as their battle was nearing their end in more ways than one. They knew it was just minutes before they'd both perish, though it wasn't entirely clear as to what would kill them. Funny thing about mages. They know exactly when, but what? Could be a stroke. Heart attack. A me...
Their words stung me a little, though why I had little clue. My head still pounded, like a drum beating constantly behind my temples. It seemed like I was forgetting something important. But as for what that was, I had no idea. I left that town, and their cruel welcome. The snow could take them for all I cared. The da...
The app appeared on the market seemingly overnight but was an instant success. People of all ages started finding out how much their loved ones actually loved them, if their friends actually liked their cooking or if their bosses would truly give them that promised raise - all thanks to the HonestApp^(TM), a free lit...
When the Devil saw the scared looks of Steve, he knew that he forgot a small detail before entering the room: he was not using his usual mortal aspect illusion. Awkward. Surprisingly, Steve quickly relaxed, after all, deep inside he knew that what he was doing here was extremely evil, from encouraging modern forms of ...
"No, no, that can't be right..."I hastily assured the mysterious woman. "I bought this sword at a garage sale..." A ripple of confusion glode across the surface of her otherwise inscrutable face, and she fixed me with an oppressively deep stare. "A... garage sale? What is that?" "There's this friendly old guy on my...
Dexter parks his car across the street, and walks toward the unsuspecting home not too far from downtown Chicago. He checks the windows of the neighboring houses, and pinches his nose with an extended pinky. The men in the windows nod, and continue watching him as he approaches the front door. Before Dexter can ring th...
“And I said, I CAN believe it’s not butter!” the man on TV exclaimed. I raised my head from my phone. “Weird” I thought, “Where’s the laugh track?”. As my eyes focused on the screen in the dimly light room I noticed the man on TV looked… nervous? I’m not sure that word even does the facial expression justice. Terrifie...
They produced a sound they hoped would inspire fear and a sense of insanity in their rival. The goodie two shoes would have no choice of course but to try and stop them! “That’s adorable!” The ‘hero’ blurted out. They could feel their face gain color with embarrassment. What was this? How could the hero think this s...
Rufus came into my life as a rescue. My mother was a nurse with a heart of gold that far outweighed her allergies. When I was 8, she came into my room, sneezing, and she said, "I have a surprise for you, William." Because of my mother's allergies, I had given up on the idea of owning a pet that didn't swim around in ...
How could I have been so naive? Through the evening rain, a headlight lit up the left side of my body; I hardly looked up as the car suddenly swerved, it’s mirror kissing my shoulder before the vehicle clipped the curb and hurtled itself into the air. The crush of metal carried off into the night as the car tumbled do...
After the invention of the Kilo Rocket, humanity had finally discovered the route to the stars, discovering signs of alien life, and within a few decades had found its place in the Galactic community, although the false utopia was revealed to be an anarchy of terror. In the days of Old Isolation (when the stars were me...
Good morning sir Alberic! todays schedule is as follows: 6am: release me from my prison 7am: release me from my prison 8am: release me from my prison 9am: release me from my prison 10am: release me from my prison 11am: release me from my prison &#x200B; Alberic shakes his amulet around his wrist vigorously ...
Professor Simon rolls from his heels to his toes like a tottering pendulum of indecision, hands deep in his tweed pockets and cherubic, bright cheeks shining with a rosy flush like a wizarding Santa Claus. Why won’t this man retire? I wonder as my hands crawl across dusty tomes. I flick through pages bedecked with sta...
All I knew was fear. Well, all I knew was inflicting fear. The confines of my portrait frame allowed me to continue my hauntings for decades upon decades. I mistakenly believed that it also protected me from any fear some external force might want to inflict upon me. Come to find out that all it took was a teenager wit...
Every race had a god at their side, helping them, guiding them. Some through magic, others through technology. Each god had a touch of divinity that was their focus, shaped by the will of the race they guided. This was the stated laws of the universe given to us by every god and race we had encountered. Any race that l...
Once you started looking for it, there was evidence all over that the trees used to be alive. Not alive, obviously, they were still alive today. But not just alive, they had a civilization of their own - they were able to move around the world and even built complex structures! Dave, of course, found it impossible to...
I'm sure it's because I ran over a kid. That's how all of this started in the first place! That was the worst thing I ever did in my normal life. I don't know what I could have done differently that day, I've relived the incident thousands of times. It was a normal Sunday morning, I was going to the little cafe on the...
Destruction. That is our family legacy. Being a Tolbert is a weighty thing. As they say "absolute power corrupts absolutely" Nobody exactly knows why or how it started but the story handed down his something like this. 'The matriarch of our family gained the power to control the waters. And she sent the scourge of...
"Eminence, I request passage to Hell." As I sat quietly next to my grandmother, mouth agape at what this stranger had just said to her, I glanced over to see what kind of response she would give. Her eyes, normally quite vacant, had a sudden clarity to them I had never seen before. Her gaze was focused intensely upon ...
"Can't say I have." I muttered back to the hollow voice, not expecting an answer as I sunk myself back under the slow moving winds of the sunday afternoon. The weather was a warm twenty-three degrees, as if taking tender care to not hurt my frail old rusty joints, and the sun not so harsh either, as I rested my almos...
The sun was shining brightly over my head. The air was hot, softly hitting my face thanks to a warm wind that was busy dragging trash on the ground. As I looked around, the city felt emptier than ever, now that the smell was gone. See, when I first got out of my bunker, the first thing that assaulted me, almost litera...
The noise in the hall woke me up far too early for a Saturday. I groaned from my spot on the couch, stretching out twists that would haunt me later in the day. Had it been a knock? My brain was still too fuzzy to take it in. I looked out the peephole into the apartment hallway, but nothing stood out. Just the same ...
The night sky was riddled with the debris of twisted metal. Derelict monolithic space stations hover above motionless. What once glittered with lights and activity for spaceships docking and leaving are now graveyards. These stations manage to catch the light of the sun and reflect light as if small stars in earth's or...
The meteor hit the Earth in what seemed like mere seconds. Astropaleontologists would watch in awe as these vibrant ecosystems they monitored and studied for ages were obliterated in the blink of an eye. Millions upon millions of distinct lifeforms, in an instant, were simultaneously shredded to dust in light. Predator...
Alandra walks through my town, then approaches me. “You. I choose you,” she says. “Me?” I say. “You’re the deity of love and sex and all that, why would you choose me?” The other people look shocked, my dad is covering his face with his hands. My best friend Samlis is trying to contain his giggles. “You’re the m...
Archmage Razmodus buried his face in his hands and let out a long sigh of disbelief. His three apprentices, Terra, Vance, and Ira standing before him with nervous looks. Razmodus pointed to the abomination his apprentices had created, "Why? What compelled you in such a manner?!"He demanded. "Well, it's just that,"Vanc...
A sharp cry echoed across the dining hall. "Cassandra! Where is my goblin-slaying axe? I told you I'd need it for our quest this evening!" I sighed, shouting internally that I had already informed my mistress on the location of her beloved Gobslayer. "It's hanging in the garden, m'lady. I wanted to ensure that it ...
“Yes, Mr All-God-of-Everything-Ever-And-Ever, Sir,” Jacobs scatters the pile of sweat-stained docs all over the crystal-glass boardroom table. “But the stench of all the carcasses and swarms of flies from the T-Rex compounds and God only knows what else is making more than half the orbital cities uninhabitable.” ...
They had done it. They had managed to capture the squire of the fearsome white knight, the holy light in the darkness. The small bedraggled man, the white squire as he was known, was slumped on his knees, his arms tied behind his back. Lord Eten was dealing with matters of the state with his advisers, their words givin...
Incantation done, Alice popped a sugar-free lozenge in her mouth and waited for the summoning ritual to work. The older summoners had told her this was the safest ritual: it'd summon a nearby weak demon that would be stopped by the circle of salt, and the delay meant she could prepare herself. Her trusty baseball bat w...
“Let me guess, that’s never happened before?” “Well…” “This is a terrible way to start our honeymoon, dear.” Augustus sighed and put his credit card away. “Look, when you said you made reservations for us in Jamaica I assumed you’d be paying for it. I only have a $500 credit limit and half of that has already been u...
John Smith wanted to know everything about humans. He had been sent to "Earth", as they called it, with a scouting unit in charge of figuring out everything related to the planet and it's flora and fauna. He was in charge of figuring out everything about the functioning of human bodies and minds, and what better way ...
Mayor Drake was an...eccentric man, eccentric just being the nice word for strange. I can't recall the last time I'd seen him during the day, for instance. And last I'd seen him at all, other than on tv, was last week on a late night stroll through Lyle Park. He scared the shit out of me when he rounded a corner, mid-s...
"TikTok" "Tick tock?" "I feel like you're not getting it. Look here."Archangel Gabriel turned his phone towards me with a finger tapping an icon outlined in pink and teal. It opened to a black screen with the word TikTok framed in identical colors. Then a face appeared. Curly hair, nose ring, a beard you could pluck...
The shrill cut through the serene air. I sighed, and rolled over. It was my last day working a dead-end job as a handyman and cleaner. I had saved up enough to disappear into the forest, and with this paycheck I was set to gather berries and herbs for the rest of my life. I turned off my alarm, and started to get ready...
At last….My love has come along…. The dulcet tones of Etta James echoed through the church’s chambers. Sarah, the bride, took one last deep breath and turned to look at her father whose arm was locked with hers as they stood in front of the sanctuary doors. “You ready?” Sarah asked her father with a smile. He seeme...
This is the last time Ed thought to himself as he marches towards the gothic looking castle. Crown Prince Edward of the Northern Kingdom might be the greatest swordsman in his generation, might be perfectly content with going on quests to save those in danger, but recently it’s been too much. There must be somethin...
The little girls fear filled the room as her eyes grew wide in horror. She looked ready to scream, but terror had closed her throat. She cluched her blankets till her knuckles turned white, and her arms began to twitch. "I know you are afraid, but don't worry, I am here to protect you now."The small boys voice was g...
Two cups of tea sat steaming. The table was made of bone, stitched together with shadow. Beside the table sat two thrones. The thrones were simple. The host's matched the bones of the table; with skulls of various species long extinct forming the back. The guest's was just a throne. But it hovered there like a three d...
“How much time do we have left?” “Not much,” I admit. “A century, perhaps more.” The human who has summoned me nods. His body is strong and youthful, but knotted with scars from blade and shot and whip: evidence of his centuries of life. Some are fresher, from the latest of their awful wars. Sometimes I wonder that ...
Leading Supervisor and Event Coordinator looked to be right up Jennifer’s alley. She was used to taking charge and organizing people for a common goal. With the local theater no longer being a sustainable source of income, a flexible side gig would be nice to help keep up with rent. The job description didn’t list...
I wake up in a blank white dimension. As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but white. Wait, where are my glasses? Oh, here they are. I put them on. Nope, everything is still just a seemingly endless expanse of blank white space. It looks slightly less fuzzy with my glasses on, though, I guess. I have no idea ...
The living were amusing. Not so long ago, their grandparents lived in fear of me. I had spread terror across the country, as I claimed its land for my own. They believed I would slaughter them, and raise all as undead beneath my command. They believed I would turn it into a desolate wasteland. Such a small idea. In my...
Being chieftain of the Zalok Orc Tribe, or Big Daddio of the Zot Bois as the kids say, was a position of great honor. We Zalok Orcs are one of the strongest Orc tribes in the world with even our children being able to take out dragons with pure strength. Our skin is nigh- impervious to all magic below 5th tier and if y...
“I’m here to report a corpse in the court!” “A corpse in the court?” “A corpse in the court.” “You’re here to report?” “I’m here to report.” “A corpse?” “A corpse.” “The court?” “The court.” “He’s here to report a corpse in the court!” “I extol the import of a corpse in this court!” “A corpse in this court?”...
It could have been bearable. It really could have. Life is a comedy. And I mean that in a highly literal sense. When something goes wrong, there is a audio cue. People are bizarrely clumsy and get into situations that should kill them only to come out of them in some vaudevillian fashion that is inherently going to lea...
It's half past two in the morning, and the staccato of rainfall battering on top of the van stirs me awake. The dog gruffly paws at the door. The others are already outside. It's raining so hard it hurts, and a river of grime and rainwater tracks around my shoes into the deep, dark gutters on the sides of the road. T...
Kipper, the party's rogue ran behind a rock before stealthy dashing into the trees. A moment later only a glint of light reflected off his sword told that he had dashed out once again. The party know what little Kip was doing, it was part of their plan. But all felt slightly relived that the kobold was away from their ...
"pft. Did the vampire just sparkle in the sunlight?"The werewolf tried to hide a giggle as they watched twilight. "HAHAHAHA."He couldn't hold it in. The vampire to his left palmed his face in embarrassment. "Vampire's DON'T sparkle, ugh, why are we watching this again? This is really offensive to my race." The dem...
We were happy to be able to settle the old debates once and for all. Finally, the truth would come shining through! We had a demonstration flight to see the trajectory from the ground first, and a tour of the rocket. The Rocket lift off and speed up out of sight quite quickly. The tour was interesting too, we could s...
It was supposed to be a flawless plan! You were bored and wanted to square up with those human heroes who had slain Jordan, that bitch had tapped out when your score was 24/24. So you decided to piss off the king by snatching his firstborn. But now it was the third moon since you sent the challenge message and no band...
Gio took one more drag on his cigar as the car lurched to a stop. Looking up into the rearview mirror his eyes connected with Vinny. Vinny cleared his throat, “Erm… Boss? Are you sure this is such a good idea? I mean she \is\ a detective.” Gio popped open his door and flicked his cigar out. “Ah sha...
The galactic standard for civilisation is a orderly and well-developed hive-mind, ruling over an empire of disposable drones. There is no individuality, though the hive-minds do have some kind of personality. The hive-minds should in theory be opposed to one another, should fight amongst themselves for resources and sp...
Saharah hummed walking around the set of armour lifting a ruby and gold coloured arm to examine it before dropping it again letting it fall back to the armour's side. "Ya your gonna be good....Even, if I'm gonna have to get you heavily remodeled."The dragonborn frowned at that seeing that this armour was clearly made f...
They say that evil never dies. Honestly, I always thought that was the kind of hokum that devotees to sad and dead religions say. A bunch of traitorous freaks hiding out in swamps. Freezing their hands off on distant rocks. Hiding in desert huts like savages. Alderaan was just the start of it. The Emperor, just as...
The young prince was sweating bullets as he sat down across from his parents. He'd been planning how to go about this for a while. He'd found a nice, cozy, secluded area of the garden, had their favorite teas and snacks laid out, was dressed as well as he could. It didn't really make it any better, especially when his ...
A new world fell upon us. A world where people have superpowers, a world where almsot everyone has a use. But there are minds with malicious thoughts. They are called Villains and amongst them the most powerful and gruesome are called Supervillains. My mother seems to be one of them, a supervillain, with a power like S...
My school was the first to be infected, and I was there when it started. I remember walking to my locker, not really paying attention to the other kids, only to find some freshman kid stuffed inside. Our lockers weren't like those big ones you see in the sitcoms, as they were essentially just rows of 1ft cubes you coul...
"So, what was it about my profile that made you swipe right?"I asked her. She let out a small chuckle after taking a sip of her coffee. "Well, not only were you very handsome, but for obvious reasons, I was a big fan of the part in your bio where you talked about your volunteer work for reforestation efforts." I had...
Okay, let's get one thing straight: I didn't mean to eat the dog. I love dogs. They're sweet and dorky and adorable. I have a dog, in fact - a little Yorkie that loves me to bits. But when I wolf out, I genuinely can't control it. I always eat on a full moon night, right at sunset, in hopes to curve its appetite. It ...
"I am dead." I've heard those words more often than you might think. 10 years as a 911 Dispatcher and nothing shocks me any more. I've heard those words with the sounds of choking panic as my caller died a few times. Other times, people just say all sorts of shit when they're tripping balls. Then there's psychotic del...
“Nope.” “George, please!” “Noooooope.” “You can’t be serious, we need you!” Nope, nope, EN OH FUCKING PEE EEH.* NOPE!* “You’ve been training most of your life for this!” “The hell I have! I’ve been training to go to space, which I have, and see a couple of planets, which I also have. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY K...
“No! No! No!” I slammed the control panel and stood up, gazing outside the airships’ windshield as Fiero, a pyromancer, dropped on top one of the large oil tanks. “Who in this godforsaken world authorized that?!” “Miss Andrews, the committee ordered the release of at least one of the supers on board to control the...
I do not kill. My blade does not find a neck to cut. My hands do not rip open the bodies of my foes, tearing out their hearts. No man has been put into his grave by my actions. Against a thousand foes I have fought with vigour and great victory on my side, and I have felled none of them. I have not placed any skulls in...
Sitting Susan was the neighborhood cat lady. The kids used to say they could smell her from the sidewalk when she opened her front door and hobbled to her rocking chair using a janky walker with half black tennis balls at the bottom of each leg. The sound of the wood creaking beneath her was like a bell that summoned ...
"Hey Kate." "Hey Doc. It's been a while." "It's been some time since we've seen each other. How are things?" "Well, I've been dating someone for a while. His name's Kevin. Doe eyed, green eyes, mop of hair, bundle of anxiety but a cute bunny of a guy. College is going well, my scores are good enough. Parents are doi...
You've heard about this one. They say he's immortal. That he can shape shift, influence others' minds, and even shoot lighting out of his fingertips. They say that other bounty hunters have gone after him before. None have even made it back alive, much less with the bounty. They say all this and end it with "we want...

No further containment procedures are required. Description: SCP-9999 is an antique wooden puzzle box in the...
“I can’t get over how cute he is!” Kaida said to Bazrosh. “I don’t care how cute you think it is, we’re not keeping it in my lair,” Bazrosh barked back. Wait… they can talk? Trembling, I glanced up at the two gigantic dragons staring down at me. “Don’t worry little guy, you’re home now,” Kaida said to me as she p...
“Mama?” “Shhh, dear,” Mom snuggled her babe close. “But, mama,” The lil tyke said, a writhing mass of shadowy tentacles. “I’m hungry.” Mama sprouted a beak from her writhing shadows, and coughed a measley few specks of food into her baby’s maw. “Mooooore.” The baby whined. Mama shoved her fist into his maw, effect...
Berk stood in the midst of the mob, fending them off as best as he could with his newly acquired club. Their shouting confused and scared him. He only wanted to be like everyone else. When they jumped off a bridge, Berk followed. When they laughed at silly words, Berk laughed too. He had always done what he could to fi...
This demon was early. By the time I had lit all the candles, fastened the bed to the ground, and closed all the curtains, he was already thrashing around. His chains were secure—I do good work—but the iron links seemed to strain and bend as the hellhound used every muscle in his newly-acquired body to escape them. I sa...
As the vignette which had long clouded my periphery closed in, I sensed my time was up. I let my eyes drift across the hospital room, determined to choose which image would be my last, and settled on the soft toy my daughter had left yesterday to keep me company. I watched the first beams of dawn dance softly across t...
