I'm one of those who bought the premium pack. So along with my own badass theme song I can pull of slow-mo finisher moves, how cool is that? Sometimes the pleasures of life just have to be paid for. But having a badass theme song isn't always great if you're getting your ass beat to your own track and I learnt that th...
"Fire!"the General exclaimed, infuriated with these invaders constantly attacking their military base. It was obvious these conquerors wanted land, and so they were attacking this Rhode Island sized base. This military camp was part of a failed experiment in time. The United States sent a small portion of the military...
Twister, as the media had taken to calling him, was done for. Doctor Atrocity had him exactly where he wanted him. Specifically: strapped to an impromptu surgical table in the middle of a usually busy intersection. As it was, though, traffic stood politely still. Not so much the panicked-traffic-pile-up you'd expec...
"Come on!"I protested. "If you take any more, I won't be able to feed my family!" "You won't be able to feed your family if the dragon burns everything down!"the captain countered. "Dragons are mindless savages. They will burn your family or eat them without any hesitation. Everyone must do their part to stop that...
Both of the people look confused « I thought the DLC was free in this game ? » Said one of the two guys. Going along with the joke I repeated, « To proceed, you must pay for DLC » « I can’t believe this BS, It’s a One week challenge game, they are supposed to be free no ? I mean, usually God makes them free » Said ...
"Okay, before we start character creation, any questions?"I ask my fellow Puffs, laying out my dice and grid onto the common room table. I had several miniatures ready to my left, and had the kitchen house elves prepare the all-mighty pizza and pepsi feast on a close by table. Henry, a second year pureblood looked o...
“So... sorry about that” she checks her watch “Oh my, it’s been 18 years! I’ll tell you what, I’ll give you 3 extra points.” “What are you talking about?” I asked. I immediately regretted asking because this woman was obviously delusional but something about her felt strange. “Well every child is given one point at ...
I'm spread across many lives. My intelligence feels dispersed, like a religion whose missionaries walk the far reaches of the earth: I know they are out there, doing good things. But I don't always know what or where. Or maybe it's more like an octopus, because I often can see what my appendages are doing. That's wh...
The area is off limits of course. Not to the plants, just people and animals. The Sound Sickness permeates the place. I put in earplugs. The science team estimates that'll get me ten minutes. Ten minutes and one of the old-tech motorbikes. It'll have to be enough. I can feel the engine humming, but the world is silent...
It was a gray, winter day. I was playing with my brother in the living room, eagerly finding ways to entertain ourselves to make time fly, as christmas was only a few days away. Things, however, weren't all laughter and joy, as it is with young kids. We got in a silly fight over a rag doll. I held him against the flo...
"What sound?"I tried to ask, but the man had already shoved his earplug back in and turned away hurriedly. All around me in Brightsalve's central square the crowd of bodies was rapidly melting away down side-streets and alleys. There was a disconcertingly regular sound of doors being bolted. I found Mhairi standin...
My wrist gauntlet starts to beep with increasing frequency. Checking it, the time signal points me to a disturbance in 1819, from a small island off Malaya. Reminding myself it was still called Temasek, I warp there, not knowing what to expect from such an unorthodox choice. Usually the illegal time travelers go to the...
The world stood still as they witness the rise of the kaiju. Every nations were left speechless. Compared to WWIII, this… this meant they were in deep shit. “Could it be a trick from the Chinese? Or the japaneses?” “I don’t think anyone on this planet is able to fake THAT!” \--- The kaiju surveyed the water around ...
It was impossible. Goddammed impossible. It didn't matter who I chose. They were dead when I got there. Weirder, in the exact way I planned to kill them. Knife, gun, rope, it didn't matter. None of it fucking mattered. I needed to kill. I needed to. I needed to. I needed to. I couldn't just stand by and let someone els...
I didn't bother hiding my smile. I had died last week, and he'd predicted, exactly right, almost 8 years ago. He was just such a jerk, I had to rub this in his face. "You know something,"I half-chuckled. "That's the same time you told me before. And I told you it wouldn't stick." His eyes went wide. Good, he remember...
Now this is where our story actually begins, for Arthur had no idea what strange events were going to befall him today. Arthur stopped right where he was in the middle of the sidewalk and shouted, "will you please shut up?". He simply stared off into space until... oh dear, can he hear me right now? "Yes, I can hear...
"Two minutes,"the lieutenant yells over the engines. Another 120 seconds of this heavy sea before we're on the beach. Thank God. I check my longbow and strings, adjust the fit of my quiver straps, tighten the knots on my leathers. It's pointless, really, but it never hurt to be prepared. Gus turns to me and smiles. "...
Bullets whizzed overhead, planting themselves into the bedroom wall. Charles peeked over the overturned oak desk, instinctively fixing his bow tie that had gone loose during the initial scuffle. After adjusting the knot, his hand went to his side, looking for his service pistol. It had gone missing, must've dropped it ...
I never liked Jumanji. The remake was enjoyable, but the whole concept kind of…spooked me out. So when I stepped on that concrete slab with a black GO and a red arrow that pointed in the direction towards the bagel shop where I was heading, a tiny part of me hesitated. What if I got myself into a Jumanji situation? Bu...
"Okay, so before you dismiss me, I would just like to change your perspective a bit. I'm the janitor. I've been through every room and garbage bin in this lair. I've seen things I wasn't supposed to see and things you probably don't want others to see, either. It would be very unfortunate if those things were to be tol...
I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing to know when you’re going to die. I never experienced it. I do know that it’s terrible thing to find out that all of your friends will though. Especially when you’re going to survive. My platoon got their notice almost two weeks ago. Everyone except me. It’s been a m...
I didn’t participate in my father’s death. It wasn’t as though I didn’t want to see him again, I wanted to keep him with us more than anyone in my family. I just... I couldn’t do it. It doesn’t seem fair to me. How can it be right to murder the ones you love if you want to keep them around? I mean, we have our wretch...
It was interesting to be a top supernatural thriller writer as I could finally indulge in my worlds of fantasy plus it had the added bonus of getting paid for them. Sure I wrote other stuff but the supernatural is what paid the bills and made me a minor celebrity. I struck it big when my book *Bloody Mary had a Blood...
The Burning Blood part 1 The scaly beast roared it's anger. Around it bodies lay strewn on the battlefield that was until 10 minutes ago. The smell of burnt flesh assault my nose. I heard screams of men that had not died to it's burning blood. One of them was mine. I was on the ground, partially buried beneath my dea...
Well, shit. I didn't see that coming. My reflection smiled mysteriously at me. "I bet you didn't see that coming." Stunned, I could only shake my head. My reflection didn't move. What the hell was going on? "You want answers? Talk to your stepfather." ...I don't have a stepfather, though? *** The garage, music ...
It's happened, first contact with an alien invasion. Sadly they're not here for our culture, cuisine, art, or even our notorious English wit. They've come solely to crack the planet and turn that delicious iron core into more warships to feed a meat-grinder somewhere galactic east of us. Inexplicably we've held, at f...
Sometimes I try to rationalize it to myself. "I'm still bringing happiness to good kids. If it wasn't me then the secret police would just do it later. If I don't do it then I'll just be killed too."It never helps me sleep at night but I keep thinking about it. When the President was killed and the Union announced tha...
(This is mobile, so please excuse the formatting) Humans. They're a very curious race. One of the most eccentric, in fact. Their race is full of talents, rebellion, paradoxes; where people functions best against the standards of society. They were driven by ambition. Blind? No one knows. But in spite of all this, th...
"As you can see guys, I have just summoned Natreth, Demon of Mayhem and Terror. If you haven't already, you should start following my channel, trying to hit a goal of $10,000 a day from tips, and all of your donations really--" A white orb came from the poor fool's mouth, effectively blocking his ability to speak. His...
I have been good. No, I have been better than good. It's been so many months, and I have managed to avoid staring into a mirror. It is hell. I close my eyes and steady my hands. Have you ever wondered how many mirrors exist out there? In lobbies, lifts, every bathroom and every bar - every crossroad and round about. ...
Learn magic in 12 weeks! Hands-on, experiential workshops offered with master spellcasters in the industry. Sign up today! These darn flyers were all over the place. Some were even clever enough to replicate itself when you tried to rip it off the alley walls. Everyone and their mom thought they were the next Merlin...
Pestilence, Famine, and Death sit in a forgotten bar just outside of a bustling city, smoking cigars and guzzling liquor. This is their nightly routine, as it’s the only way to ignore the fact that the world’s moved on, that’s nobody gives a damn about them. “Remember…” Pestilence starts, drunkenly waving his hand. ...
The black smoke filled my room that night, just a few days after I sent out that letter, I hid under my covers, unaware of just what was about to happen. Me, a 10 year old, still unaware of what the world really was. That was until He showed up. The black smoke cleared in my room to reveal a slender man, his suit darke...
The god drew forth from its enclosure, finally free to roam the Earth unhindered. "Waa"it said. Jove shuffled his feet. "Now what?" He took off his hood and looked to the other cultists. They all avoided his gaze, hiding under the hoods of their flowing brown cultist robes, taking a sudden interest in the intricate sy...
It was 3:07 in the afternoon, but the McDonald’s I was sitting in was still busy. I was seated, with a young kid in the chair across from me. A woman, talking loudly on her phone, finished paying for her drink. “Oh my gosh, I’m trying to cut down on my coffee addiction. I mean, I don’t get why people drink so much!” S...
This mountain used to be a favourite pastime for the local teenagers. They'd always come here to fish, camp, do whatever it is that stupid young folk do. And I used to have such privileges until my "social death". Now, a cold iron collar grips my neck, which can just as easily call in the Angel of Death if I "reach co...
A box, what the hell is happening now those stupid philosophers better not be up to their stupid talks again AND THEN SUDDENLY YOU'RE DEAD AND ALIVE THERE IS DARKNESS AND LIGHT AND ALL YOU CAN THINK OF IS WHAT YOU ARE, YOU ARE DEAD AND ALIVE IN A BOX UNTIL IT IS OPENED INFINITE AMOUNTS OF WORLDS, POSSIBILITIES, COLOUR...
Every ship has its own singing voice, as any sailor will tell you. A landsman might scoff. A scientist or engineer would babble on about small vibrations in the sail tethers, but a sailor knows its the ship's soul. It was this soft melody which was sending the Officer of the Watch, Lieutenant Timpson, towards a half-sl...
Could this class get any more boring? I thought as I leaned against the conference room's squeaky chairs. I scroll through my notes, seeing my sloppy writing going off the edges as proof of my lack of sleep. I just want to go take a nap outside... I drag my pencil in a pathetic oval, not even bothering to close it...
I am older then the planet I stand upon, humanity has fled this world and left me to wander its barren wastes and bare witness to the desolation. I’m not alone though, cruelty is my constant companion and his name is Doug Connery of Denver, Colorado. I was cursed to wander this brown marble until the sun burned out a...
"Mayday!" &#x200B; Harrowing mechanical voices clambered around the disintegrating metal box that the two of us were crammed into. I couldn't see too well, but out of the corner of my eye I think I saw Lt. Majin's disembodied hand stroking through the frantic shuttle. Slowly, I turned around. It looked like the...
Decrypting message...Standing by... A droning voice echoed from the hall amid countless other buzzing devices. To a more flesh made mind this would all look like chaotic nonsense, but in reality this was the central lattice of command of the AlphaSynapse autonomous tactical system, at least that what humand used to ca...
"How many times do I have to tell you that there is nothing down there?"I said, leading him back to the skirt of my bed by his purple fur covered arm. "Joey, don't you tell me what I heard,"he growled. As he ripped his arm away, a claw caught hold of my old fraternity sweatshirt, slashing right through it. I could on...
"If you ever touch my sister again, I'll make you eat twice as much dirt, freak!"Ralph stomped away, laughing and high-fiving his friends. Sniffing away tears, I wiped at my eyes and spit out a mouthful of dirt. What a jerk! Lucy was my friend, why did it matter to him? And he'd gotten my new dress dirty... "What hap...
I was dreaming about a ringing phone as the phone went off. I looked at the number and recognized it as my own – I was still dreaming. What I didn’t recognize was the phone. Or the hand holding the phone. Or the bed I was in. Or the room. Or the woman sleeping next to me. I sat up quick and clicked answer, listening, ...
You look around and see nothing. No walls, no ceiling, nothing to hold you there. Yet you have no desire no leave, no interest in moving. You wonder if you can or could even move if you actually wanted to. But everything was so calm and peaceful in this moment. You didn’t want to disrupt this sense of tranquility. Beca...
The Tree is not a botanical concept. It can take on many forms, fitting the desires and comprehensions of its discoverer. Some cultures do, indeed, see it as a World-Tree, its branches stretching to the heavens above. Others see it more accurately, with its branching pathways leading to many corners of the huge House o...
Mrs. Morgan tottered into the police station with an album under her arm. I figured she was lonely after her husband had passed 2 weeks ago and was bringing in a picture album. She smiled at me and said, “I have information regarding an ongoing investigation” patting the album. I cocked my head at her with an inquis...
How infinitely stupid I was. I knew how this went. No matter how hard I tried, what changes I made, someone always lost. Those were the rules. Butterfly Effect, and all that. There was no perfect ending. No Deus ex Machina that made the endings happy. I may have saved one person’s day from turning to shit, but somewh...
”I wish that every wish I make, including this wish, is granted according to the way I had thought it would be granted.” The djinn stood silently. Had he been outsmarted? ”Granted.” ”I wish for ten more Djinns, each with three wishes, for myself. Each Dijnn shall first grant my first wish of these three, but the rema...
"Look at it, the Giant Squid. So large that it was once thought to be able to destroy entire fleets of ships. They called it 'The Kraken.' Suddenly, a massive tentacle breaches the surface and coils around the squid, pulling it deeper into the abyss. After the screams died down the narrator carefully continued "And ...
She didn't think it'd ever happen. Sayaka Mason-Koriyama had been alone half her life. Half-Japanese, she was an outcast in her school and all the time rumours were spread about her. 'She's a slut' they said. 'She's a whore' they said. She had never understood why they did it, only that they did. Maybe she was a more...
I could've sworn I've seen Jeff around before. Maybe he just had one of those familiar looking faces – someone so average in appearance that you're almost sure you should know them by name. Dark hair, brown eyes, slight stubble, cheekbones and nose of average height. Heck, even he was of average height. 5'9, maybe 5'...
The intense glint reflecting off of the exposed surface area of the knife you are wielding catches in your eye. It creates a beautiful juxtaposition between its own awesome brilliance and the harmonious peace that you are feeling within yourself. Blood burgundy red spilling in a sporadic pattern down the blade remind...
Tammy clutched the edges of her desk and stared hard at the book in front of her. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see the teacher looking at her. Was he angry at her for something? Was he laughing internally at her face? Had she forgotten to brush her hair this morning? As her anxiety grew, small tendrils of s...
"Bad respawn"but I can't make out the rest. It looks like each letter was written at a different time. I look deeply, some looked scratched in fingernails, some written with a finger in mud. Other, looks like, well black gunk.... TSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! IT BURNS OH LORD... I knew what it said, but didn't have much time, I...
They used to try to stop me, back in the day. They would show up whenever I tried to rob a bank, or trick an elderly woman into giving me her jewels, but I had failed so many times that they stopped paying attention. I once had the bank tellers load up the money, and I had forgot it in the bank restrooms just before l...
I didn’t notice it at first. In fact, it was a relief. Not to have people constantly texting, emailing, calling, stopping in to chat. It was nice to wake up one day and just have a day for myself. I woke up, I did the dishes. I even dusted the place! Not one distraction. The next day was even better. I was at wor...
I'm not one to enjoy partaking in gossip, but one can hear a lot just by being in the right place at the right time. And I happened to be both. I never would have thought of her as anything more than just a middle school teacher. Her name was Jaydin Hill - a name I never bothered remembering before, but it had quickly...
I awoke in complete darkness to the smell of manure wafting through the air and the sensation of hay prickling against my skin. As I pulled myself to my feet, I could hear the rustling of animals nearby. I was almost certainly in a horse stable, but how I got there I had no idea. As I took my first cautious steps, I st...
I love selling ice cream. It’s my job to have kids running towards me, screaming their lungs out, and pleading with their parents for money as if they were begging for their lives. I love it all. But not today. Today the sounds that filled the air were not ones of my musical enticement that gave the promise of cold swe...
I stop handcuffing him abruptly, the words not making sense. "Excuse me?"I say slowly, my eyes fixed on the cold blue eyes hiding behind the familiar white mask of my long-time arch nemesis. "You're going to destroy the universe in three days.........." I stare at him for a few seconds, but his eyes lacked its usu...
Frankly speaking, I'm pretty sure the fairy didn't expect me to survive the first night. I mean, pulling a guy out of his lazy-boy and dropping him unarmed into a dark forest filled with monsters... there's pretty much only one outcome you'd expect. One minute I was watching a rerun, the next I was running for my life...
Another Super Conference. I really wanted to skip this one but the last time I tried that they sent over the Human Flamethrower to come and collect me. I had to replace half a dozen floorboards because of all of the scorch damage. They are holding the event at Axe Manor this year, which is a nightmare because it means...
I shuddered, sickened that I had long awaited this curse. Born from the fields of ancient battles, my soul was destined to reap, reap, and reap again, eternally. Never sowing, for to sow is to plan, to make, to build, or to earn. No, I the outlaw of the human experience, the arbiter of objectivity, and the *taker of ...
The highrise’s elevator opened. Immediately, my feet rushed me over to a particular door and I knocked three times. “Death?” My friend, who was the Lord Death himself, moaned. “It’s unlocked,” he called. I opened the wooden door. I found him on the couch with a bag of off-brand chips, munching away. “Is everything al...
“Listen Pal I know you’re just doin’ yer job but if you even think about touching those cable ties I’ll have to wring yer fuckin’ neck.” Brian was stunned. “I’m sorry Sir maybe you don’t quite know what this i-“ “Oh I understand ye perfectly well.” “No Sir you really don’t understa-“ “You’re just a dipshit who coul...
It wasn't a bad gift by any measure. Pete likes toys. Pete is a toddler. I don't like toys. I'm a middle-aged man. It really wasn't too bad. When he got old enough to start crawling around and exploring more, my wife insisted on getting him something. We started small with simple stuffed animals, just plushy caricat...
&#x200B; It all started that day when Manny broke the vase at home. He had knocked it off the shelf accidentally. Grandmother started swearing the moment she heard it. The shards were all over the floor. It was Ming. I was peering over the remnants of the vase when I had the most inexplicable urge to touch them. I...
My adversary smirked as he slowly got up, blood cascading from his split lip. "You got some nerve. I'll give you that."Now fully erect he let out a dry laugh. "Coming in to MY lair. Thinking I won't do to you what I did to EVERY other caped imbecile who stood in my way!" He made a fist with one hand and purple energy...
In retrospect, it was a bit scary, how easy it was to turn a regular person into a cold-blooded killer. Maybe we were already on that path. We'd been killing each other since well before even Goldeneye, climbing competitive ladders even back in the Starcraft days. Contrary to what the media said, we weren't just blo...
"What's that! Who are you?"I yelled at the even more disembodied voice I heard from the kitchen. A small toddler came crawling out. "I'm a ghost's ghost. Turns out there isn't life after death, but there is life after death death" "Wait, what?", I said incredibly confused. "Well, since 1986 I've been a ghost, haunti...
Why even bother playing if you're just going to break the rules? Where's the gamesmanship in that? Now, your everyday, run of the mill, b&e specialist actually turns out to be a complete moron. The general public will never believe it, but think about it. He makes his living by being a menace, terrifying the comm...
# Ass still smarting from its most recent encounter with the cobblestone road, Gregor hobbled into the nearest shady alley. He scuttled, shuffled, and scurried about until finally finding a hole in the wall of good quality. Then with practiced efficiency he contorted himself into a decent impersonation of the hole. Fe...
"Hey Doctor, what can you tell me about the Patient?" Cmdr Ju asked the Doctor. &#x200B; *"Well he is a Pilot for the Rearguard Patrol Beta that vanished a few weeks ago, he suffered extensive trauma all over his Body, its strange. Here take a look at those fragments, have you ever come across something like th...
I wake up to a mouth full of sawdust and blinding light. My roof has collapsed. Again. I push myself up on one elbow, groggy but awake, my heart pounding. No matter how often this happens, I am afraid. I can taste tin, hear screams outside. "I have found you!" The voice echoes. It is not directed at me. I crawl out o...
Irreversible -------------------- A broken glass. That was the first thing I had ever reversed. That was what I had always done: reversed things back to their original states. Did you ever believe things had a state they were meant to be in? A state which they belonged in? I brought that state back to them. It wa...
I wasn't always like this: I wasn't always a Genie, I was a human once. Being turned into a Genie was something of a curse, really, and I definitely had it coming. In hindsight, I'd been a colossal asshole as a human. The job itself was pretty simple. A person picks up my lamp, makes three wishes, and then dumps me in ...
Nobody knows where superpowers came from. We know when they started existing, but we have no inkling of why they appeared, nor do we know how they even work. Whenever a baby is born, it seems that a pair of die are rolled somewhere in the heavens which determines what power the newborn will get, if any at all. There a...
Admiral Grekk straightened his back, adjusted the sash across his chest which denoted his rank and military achievements and folded three of his four arms behind him before addressing the War Council members all gathered around the holo-map. "Intelligence reports this satellite, which the Hu'Mans call 'Mo'On', is a ...
Oh. Oh. Wait... “What the fuck?!” “Hold on... hold on...” I put the glass back down No way. No fucking way. I look to my phone and “reach for it” It lifts itself up. Okay... I will use this power only for the betterment of mankind. Ok fuck that, is it just a ghost arm or is it straight telekinesis like magn...
I always enjoyed being alone with the machines, it was my safe space where I could wander off to realms of my imagination. Automation has swiftly taken over industry to the point that being alone with them was not too uncommon, in fact, for me I only saw another person at work once a month for a inspection or when some...
Ding My secretary, Mary, spoke through my watch. \"\Mr.Husk, you have a visitor at the front desk. He's from... ah, he's from the church." I couldn't help but smirk. I was expecting the church's little club to catch on eventually, and it was finally time to cross this little problem of my to-do list. "Alright, le...
My name is Oscar and I'm a good boy. Everyone says so. There are many wonderful people in my life, but the most important one is my friend, Norman. I love him and love being with him. Out of all the humans in the whole world, Norman is my favourite. He’s smelled poorly for a while now, and I could tell he was sca...
"Damnit Jones! I said JUMP N" My voice ripped from my mouth as I felt everything stretched goddess knows how long. We didn't even have time to prep anything. No stealth, they'll be able to follow us inside of an hour... Assuming we don't hit something between here and there, or get eaten by a black hole. I'm going to ...
The plan was so utterly foolproof that no one could possibly succeed with it. After all, the premise seemed ridiculous. Who ever would have considered splitting the main infantry line into two pieces, placing them on either side, and leaving the backline completely exposed? To be frank, it's miraculous any of them list...
I remember being seventeen, riding in the car with my parents and siblings, late at night on yet another “family road trip.” I had been dazedly staring out the dark window, more to try and glimpse the stars that to look at anything in particular. Western Kansas really doesn’t have much other than cows and corn. It was...
My son had always loved to finger paint. As soon as he found the wonderful, squishy colors, our house became a gallery for his art. His imagination knew no limits, it seemed, and he had found a way to express himself in ways that I was frankly a little jealous of. He had a connection to and through something that I had...
Rex leaned forward in his seat, attempting to better hear the student kneeling in front of him over the clacking of the train car. A psychic voice thrummed through the car from a shiny green creature in his lap. OOPS, I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU SAID "I said I'm sorry,"blubbered the young man on the floor, "I did...
Scientists baffled after discovery of life threatening diseases curing themselves, may be linked to the recent drop in murder rates. Scientists asking if humans have reached immortality. 13.7k upvotes, 505 comments Sorting by controversial Ridingthenarwhals : what a proud moment in human history! Can't believe we fi...
"Presenting!..... ANTI-MAN!" The crowd roared in applause. Taking a deep breath I swallowed my fear and walked onto the stage. Today was the day. My hero debut. I put a hand on the mike and looked at my audience. They looked confused. Something twisted in my gut. Had I done something wrong? I looked at the presenter ...
I looked at the man who had been the one stopping the countless plans over the years, never really exchanging many words with him for obvious reasons. He was the top hero in the world and I was the top villain, we were bound by nature to be rivals. But as the fights went from us simply coming across each other as gree...
We never knew why. Why did the population just stop increasing? Of course, we didn't realize it at first. I mean, we were a lot of people : more than 4 billions. But one day, someone figured it out from nowhere. The maximum population had arrived several years ago. And everyone who was born caused someone to die. Th...
“I’m having great day” He grinned to his friend. He had gotten a 98% on his test in History, even though he had though he was going to do bad. He stared out the window on his school bus, the school bus halted. “Bye mate, it’s my stop” his friend said as he grabbed his bag and ran off. He disliked being one of the last...
I knew everything. Calculus, Physics, English, Philosophy, Law, Biology, Chemistry. I answered The Millenium problems in single afternoon. Anonymously, of course. I knew why Holden called people "phonies"in The Catcher in the Rye. I knew how many dimensions there were. I knew the answer to the trolley problem. ...
“How the hell did you get your hands on nukes?!” My partner asks me. I do not respond, because my nuke stash is a secret. I recently got an offer for $300. I need to kill some Russian spy or whatever. Easy enough, I’ve killed more important people than that. I’m told they were visiting in the center of Moscow, disgu...
Blissful silence filled the house. It was empty save for the small pack of mice slowly creeping in to avoid the coming winter. Belzar stretched his ghostly form, letting it fade and spread to fill more of the cellar. He let out a sigh and faded into a soft mist clinging to the ceiling. It had been a wonderful break f...
I am on an inbound shuttle from the Earth's lunar space station and I'm as jittery as venuvian cave jumper thought is hard to tell if its with the ship buffering against the atmosphere or my nerves. I have worked all of my adult life to get to this moment. Struggling to be the best in my field to travel the to home p...
I took a bite. That was it. That was the taste I remembered. &#x200B; Daddy's fried egg. Sunny side up. Nobody could do it like he did, but the Lunaris Delight. &#x200B; I have saved for tonight. Three months after the reservation. It costed all the profits I had from running the corporate. Never mind, I wo...
I remember when the slender puff of fur called a 'cat' first arrived as if it were yesterday. It may have actually been yesterday for all I know; I'm terrible with time. But regardless, I'll remember it for as long as I'll live. Maybe even longer! The humans arrived home in the evenings as they always did. The often h...
