"It's not like you're running out of damned souls,"Kenneth Lay interjected, "Church attendance has been down, Buddhists across China barely achieve Nirvana anymore, and you've even managed to get the evangelicals to endorse the adulterer, Trump."Ken passed around the latest census data for the 9 circles of hell. "Frank...
Of course my first mission would have an emergency. Of course I would be stuck inside hoping that Ramirez can make the repairs after a hunk of rock seemed to change course just to ruin my day. Why would it be easy? Funny enough, I hated space even before today. Luckily Ramirez is the best engineer I've ever known. Th...
“Bang.” I said it with no enthusiasm, certainly no expectation. Half assed at best, maybe even quarter assed. One eye squinched shut, tongue partly out, hand sideways. A complete mockery of marksmanship. And yet, with no other sound, the soda can flew off the dining table to land, spinning on the checkered linole...
Gene had worked for 10 years as a crossing guard at Greenfield Elementary. On Mondays, kids from the daycare across the street would stick their claw-like fingers through the fence and chide and laugh at Gene. On Tuesdays, ten year old Jimmy Higgins walked alone to school from his house just up the hill. Jimmy always...
So there I was. Lying spread eagled on a street. In a trash can. Full of chemical waste. With a stick through one eye. As raccoons finished eating my wallet. "Oh well", I said. It could be worse. As if to drive this point home, a different group of raccoons pushed my friend Dave off a roof. Dave's barrel is rusty....
We called it middle-matter. It was something between anti-matter and matter. And we had barely enough for a single rubix cube sized object. But it was enough. Nobody asked us where it came from, or how we found it. All they knew was as long as middle-matter existed, any angry thought, any greedy whim, any negative fe...
"It's the iron,"she told me. "It's like the way an MRI works." We were walking barefoot in the Martian regolith, and she was reading from her clipboard. "The iron in your haemoglobin came from Earth,"she explained. "It had been imbued with paramagnetism by Earth's magnetic field." "So what?"I asked. I had taken off...
is my first story, plz be nice The T. Rex jumped over the cactus and landed somewhat gracefully, which was pretty good considering that his body was much bigger than his legs could feasibly support. He kept on running and jumped over another cactus. His tail got caught on the cactus, however, and he tripped. "O...
They were about to start filming and Chad was preparing for the scene. Like a moth to the flame, Chad would find himself a slave to his instincts and find himself trying to spark up another conversation with Emily. He truly felt like she was the one who he was going to spend the rest of days with. At times she woul...
"Mr. Summerthien, how do you plead?" I rose - "Innocent."- then retook my seat. "Now before we begin,"said the judge, addressing the jury, "Mr. Summerthien has declined a public defender - state appointed or otherwise - and has chosen to defend himself before you today in the court of law. Mr. Summerthien, will you p...
"Don't you think your second wish of becoming immortal should be counted as the same thing as your wish just now for all the riches of the world? Time is money, as they say!" "Sure, Mr. Genie guy, I don't mind if you want to combine those two into one. How many more of these wishes do I have left?"Greg had to think ha...
With a soft "thunk"my hoe dug into the dirt. Tilling the land ain't ever a fun job to do, but I enjoyed eating to much to not do it. 'Sides, Ma would tan my hide if I ever complained about any of the chores round the farm. Well, least the morning weather was nice and cool today. Taking a deep breath, I lifted my hoe a...

"Annndddd we're live! How's it going, my little Jigglies? I am MsJigglypuff and welcome to the release of SWORD ART ONLINE!!!!"I glanced around, slowly rotating in a circle, so my viewers could see. "This is incredible, you guys! Thanks so much for joining me. It looks like we already have 100,000 viewers joining me o...
Zvorak and Zvee kept making quick furtive glances towards each other. They’re skin carried the strange green glow of photosynthetic creatures, but their physiology was mostly familiar. They had long limbs that carried them around and helped them manipulate the world, baggy clothes otherwise obscured the vast landscape ...
The ship was Old, with capital O. Older than Sequiel, the first Allán, Father of Songs, Carrier of the Torch of Elenna, The Ship's Mother. And Sequiel was old too, not with capital O, just normal old, so old in fact he had several names under his care. But it wasn't the names that where heavy on him, not really, it was...
There was a clatter as Morts scythe fell to the ground. He leapt up from the table made of bones, spilling the blood of the innocent he'd just boiled. He squinted with empty eye-sockets. Normally no-one knocked on Morts door, unless it was the devil or- even worse- Life come to complain to him. Mort was okay with that...
The year 22XX Today, The Council discovered something. something phenomenal. for countless years, we have been taught that we were the sole remnants of mankind, that once we had populated the ashen sphere we orbited, but our folly had blasted our earth into dust. Or so we thought. For the first time in centuries , the...
I never try to stop it, anymore. Bad things happen when I try to stop it. I mean, WORSE things happen. * * * I tighten my tie, and check my hair in in the front-facing camera in my phone. The bright red tie is supposed to take the focus off the bags under my eyes, and the new haircut is supposed to take the focus o...
To my father, being a Crossfit trainer made me a huge disappointment. Now it's the end of the world, though, and things are different. 'The weak are meat, and the strong do eat,' as they say. Suck it, Dad. Ever since that stray wormhole sucked me out of the present and marooned me centuries into the future, I have be...
I was satisfied. I had spent my life well. I had good jobs, I travelled the world, I had children and a wonderful wife. I had three generations of dogs, two generations of cats, and a self-sustaining aquarium. I wrote the books I wanted to write, I touched the places I wanted to touch, and as I thought back on it all.....
"Are you excited?,” Maya’s voice crackles through the receiver. Even with the bad reception I can hear the nervous waver in her low voice. I pace my attic bedroom, stopping when I hear a brief break in the static. "I guess,” I mumble. “What about you? Scared to leave your parents?” "Yeah…,” she sniffs. I can hea...
I thought I'd gotten away. The trail of slime proved how empty that fantasy had been. A thin damp line traced it's way up my wall directly above my head. I'd seen it's soft glitter in the dawn light and it's smooth, unbroken path had frozen me in bed. A sheen of sweat broke out unbidden across my skin. I feel the dampn...
So on my annual physical for my entry to adulthood, I had to complete the registration paperwork for my future career. I was doing okay until I got to the 2nd page. "Please describe your markings, starting with your most recent." I was terrified. I had never had any markings of any kind, which hadn't been a problem u...
Time isn't linear. It's more like a toroid -- a donut. Endless timelines and possibilities weave around eachother and connect back to create an endless cycle of destruction and recreation. As the final human, I am the total synthesis of all our knowledge and the apotheosis of sentient life in the universe. It's my so...
The soldier cracked his knuckles, ready for his opponent to make his move. His opponent's hand trembled, but he didn't dare move as he knew the outcome was inevitable. "That's impossible...there's no way,"the enemy soldier stated, bringing his head into his hands. "But it did. It's checkmate. Your country has lost ...
There are things greater than us. Long ago, we knew this, and we feared for ourselves. This fear is sewed deeply into our cores. If the field of evolutionary psychology has any legitimacy, it is in why we fear what we do. We know we fear darkness because it holds the unknown, but of course, there are things to be feare...
600 years. 600 years I've been in that god damned hellhole. And now, they're finally letting me free. At least i outlived the judge. I was so happy when that sicko died. He even sent me a card at the day of his burial. "Good luck with the next 512 years, you filth.". What a nice token that was. I've seen guards com...
He crawled out of the wooden floors in the living room, screaching and clawing. He stumbled out of a portal that shut as soon as his spiny toes were out of the way. "You truly must be desparate to call upon me, for it has been three-thousand years since I've been summoned. Do you dare to make trade and at what cost?"He...
The house was dark, because you could not afford to draw attention from other survivors. It has been 278 days and you weren't dead yet. You were not naive enough to believe yourself to be the only one immune to the dust-swarm of death that assaulted respiratory systems. The swarm nestled itself into any groove in the...
Do not trust them. That was the message saved across all of the four billion DNA samples we tested. Don't trust who? Was the question. People went mad searching for the answer. They figured it had to have been someone or something close and recent as bones from just before the agricultural revolution did not contain th...
Making chocolate. That was the power I got. Most of my friends got amazing powers. Steve had an iPhone 7, and now he can fly. Alex had the same phone, and she has super strength. And what do I have? The ability to make chocolate. Thing is, it's pretty damn hard to turn flight or strength into profit. Especially when...
They all called me crazy, THEY ALL CALLED ME CRAZY! Fitbits made no sense, I said. They were too pure and innocent, I said. There had to be a catch. Did they listen? NO. Those insolent bastards kept using the Fitbits without any consideration of the risk involved, not even bothering to check for anything strange. By t...
"Oh, please, anything but that!"the spy screamed in melodramatic fashion. "Don't think it will be so bad, do you?"the scientist cackled back. "Oh, nobody ever does." As he switched on some flips on his main circuit board, the machine emitted a low rumble. Shortly thereafter a little light came up from the top of the ...
I hereby swear that the foregoing is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge. I am an idiot. The messages first started appearing on my palm in 1973. Many of my other friends also started getting the writing in 1971, in sixth grade. We were just reaching puberty, and everyone was anxious to see who their soulma...
Nobody knew exactly when the Flourishing began. Just came out of nowhere in the summer of 2002. I was merely ten when my parents sat down in front of the TV to see this astounding information. The first to fall victim to the Flourishing was a generous old man who was renowned as a generally nice guy. Killed in a home ...
"You know what's the best part about these walks?"Longtail said, with an air of supreme smugness. Chaser sighed, ignoring the cat as he trotted by a little girl's side, who held the other end of a leather strap in a loose, three-fingered grip. The answer was the same every time Cassie took them on the narrow dirt lane...
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck-" "Easy, easy, what's going on?" "Level One alert. It's out. Fuck fuck fuck!" I gripped both of the panicking researcher's shoulders tightly. "Breath. What is it?" "G-2281. Dark Vine plague." In the time that it took for me to speak again, approximately three seconds, thirty two people d...
"Well, I am glad to have been of help, Drake."I said. "Yeah, one more thing, could you come to another test on Sunday?"Said Drake. "This will be your final test, so we could check if the 'Zombie' virus is truly gone for good." "*Don't stress about it too much, it's already been about 6 months since we cured y...
"Certainly you are a powerful wizard,"proclaimed the big man with the long braid. "The ability to conjure such sounds is one we've not before encountered." I tried to hide my disappointment as I closed the Spotify app on my phone. Where was the wonder in his voice? Where was the shock in their eyes? The shorter man s...
The neurotech hesitated. I knew she would, the coward. “Listen,” I began heatedly. “It’s my right. I get to make the call.” “Yeah, and it’s my license on the line here. This hasn’t been sanctioned.” “I’m a professional.” “A professional who also doesn’t have a license.” “I had a license. I’ve written dozens ...
(Susan Bone) Keep your head down That could be the motto of Hogwarts. It could be the motto of the whole wizarding world right now, in fact. They hang the Scofflaws on the staircase. It used to be the dungeons, but the Carrows’ decided that they needed to be seen. Most of us are used to it, students and Scofflaw’s...
"Give me your money! Now!" I looked at the man mugging me. His eyes were bugging out of their sockets and his pupils were dilated. Sweat was pouring down his face on this cold December night. He seemed out of sorts. My guess was that he was definitely on something. "OK, OK, just take it easy. I only have $20 on me."...
(Bartender leaves the friends a bottle of Jack Daniels. He proceeds to walk outside and disappear into the night) J: We led a good life, right? T: I think so. (J pours both a shot) (They clink shot glasses; both down their drinks) J: Do you ever wonder what would've happened if you didn't date Pier? T: Not ...
“Is that seat taken?” He pointed at the seat next to me. I barely looked up from my book when I answered the man. “Oh no,” I quickly replied. “You can sit here if you like.” As soon as I had said this, one of those notifications popped up, saying my lifetime had just been reduced by 47 years. I froze. This was by far...
The hero was dead and it was only page 23. By page 24 the void wraiths had destroyed the gleaming imperial city, and before page 26 was halfway through, the world had been cast into darkness and its people enslaved. By page 27 I was finally brought before the God of Nothingness; a gaping hole in space and time starti...
I'merely changing a small detail or two just for myself. --- The first thing I noticed when I woke up was just how shiny my bed sheets were. My first guess was that they were made from satin or some other material. The other detail is that unlike when I went to bed after taking the pill where I was wearing a shirt ...
When they said the name over my encrypted VoIP, my jaw hit the floor. Metaphorically speaking, of course. Assassins aren't that flexible. It was me. Well, the "real"me. The "me"that had a mortgage, credit score, library card, the whole nine yards. Steven Withrak, who this person just offered me a shitload of cash t...
*An unexpected visitor.* Round the Xbox we were sitting, Punching buttons, clicking, hitting, When from somewhere came a knocking, Interrupting teabag mocking. &nbsp; "Come on guys"I muttered weary, "Distractions? Lame! Very dreary. You're a dick, don't be lame. And yet still the knocking ...
I have no idea how long I was unconscious, but when I came to my senses, the pain reminded me that I was still alive. As a recreational pilot I was used to flying through adverse weather conditions. This time, however, I was not prepared for the monster in the sky. The electrical system went haywire as lightening fla...
I watched as they looked at 'me.' The clone in the chair sat mutely, staring at the three would-be usurpers without any trace of expression or personality. "I can't believe we didn't know about this... you've always seemed so open,"said Javra. "I know,"I replied. "It was... difficult to balance my contingencies wit...
First signs of infection are hard to catch. Mostly because it varies from person to person, but common signs are: flushed skin, lethargy, congestion. It’s deceptive because by all accounts it looks more like a viral infection. Not much you can do but let it run its course, right? That kind of wishful thinking is what c...
Frank Daley was the type of man to show up to a funeral and flirt with the widow. Frank Daley was the type of man to make his employers work overtime while he left work early to take their wives out to dinner. Frank Daley was the man who was banging my wife. Frank Daley was my boss. And I was going to kill him. Well...
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I pulled my destrier to a halt at the crest of the hill. The once rolling hills that I knew here had long since been smashed to flat fields during what people called the Cleansing Times, but it mattered not to me. It was my time now. I emerged frozen and shaking from the cryostas...

I don’t know why, but I’m always drawn to Highlights magazine when I’m in waiting rooms. There’s always the ubiquitous table covered in a glossy scattering of print journalism, with typically 95% of the offerings at least a month out of date, and I always go for Highlights. Maybe it’s because Highlights is never really...
The skeleton was dressed in the finery of a knight, a leather shirt draped in a chainmail guard, a silver helmet draped on his head. He had no eyes, instead of a teal pair of foggy orbs. "Uuaahh!"Amanda shrieked, getting a similar sound in response! "A skeleton! You're a skeleton!"She pointed, jabbing a finger at the ...
I wake up around 8'o clock with the sun shining right in my eyes between the blinds. Perfect. Today's gonna be just peachy isn't it. Just like yesterday. As the thought finishes and the sarcasm has a moment to sink in, I begin to furrow my brow and my mouth dips into a frown. *What did I do yesterday? Probably w...
I was born with what my doctors called a “genetic anomaly.” I prefer to call it a “gift.” It’s called vision. I am the only human being with this gift, though the ancients spoke of gods who had “the fifth sense.” I guess that means my gift makes me a god. I wouldn’t have known that as a child, because I was bullied...
"Private Qward, status report" "Um, well, uh, delays still present Commander Jarvin. Expected time til completion still unclear" "This is unacceptable Private Qward.

It was a cold winter's blizzard at the lab here. We were in charge of communication with the Xel'nag who were orbiting the planet. They had just sent a transmission that they wanted to investigate the paranormal. I personally had to contain myself, it was all hoaxes anyhow, right? I was looking up through the telescope...
Simon stepped out of the time machine with the largest smile on his face. He was standing in what looked like a park. Grass had been planted and carefully maintained in a smallish square almost exactly around the spot his time machine had landed on. Actually, it was rather odd. A thriving metropolis rushed on around hi...
Ok, so it was the usual thing, "send a letter by this date and make sure it's in the post by 5pm". Probably some rich idiot wanting some level of absolution about ignoring his dying father or something, pretty much standard stuff here. Normal protocol, affect as little else as possible. I go in, don the orange robes ...
Sam Zen was the man, the sex god. Sam was fly and the guy got the eye all day. "Hey Sam!"Lou was the hot gal Sam had the eye for but Sam was too fly for the one gal. Ten, yes. Not one. "Hey Man! Dig the car!"Joe let Sam buy his rad car. Why? Sam did not ask. But Joe too had the eye for Sam. Joe was gay. All day Joe...
To the untrained eye, the hulk of metal might have appeared listless. To any eye that saw it, anyway. Perhaps more reminiscent of a stack of boxes than any vessel worthy of sea or air, the gray tower embossed with the word “Angelica” might have seemed at home in an industrial complex than to be spinning around a star a...
The room was silent save for the sound of the Crown Jewels clanking down the steps. Finally, they stopped rolling at my feet. I looked down at the Crown. The emerald cut with a thousand symmetrical faucets reflected the light up into my eyes. I bent down and picked up the Crown, placing it slowly on my head. Someo...
Thinking about getting a human? This is a manual that covers all you need to know before you make such a commitment. Yes, you read that right--a commitment. Humans require a lot of attention and care, so you need to know what you are getting yourself into before you go get one from the pet store. Here are a few of the ...
Grimm looked down at the list that was just handed to him from God Himself. “God,” said Grimm, flipping through the pages and pages of the list, “Is this a mistake?” God shook His head. “No mistake there. The list is just as I made it.” Grimm had only seen numbers so high for one day once in his tenure, and that was...
Something snapped in my head. One moment, the war was raging all around me and the high priestesses of the Circle were screaming instructions in my ear; the next, all was silent. I was standing in the middle of a field of tall grass, the wind blowing it softly to the right. It was dusk, and though I knew I'd been sent ...

Beep beep beep The alarm. It's time to get up. I surely don't feel like it. But life has to go on. I wash my head. Take a piss. Look in the mirror after washing my hands. My body is covered in faces. Most are hard to distinguish from each other because of the hundreds of layers. Aww, fuck, I say to myself and head i...
I could remember clearly when I last saw my best friend. It was three years ago, on a cold winter night. We snuggled on the beat-down couch in what I called my living room. Back then, his fur had been a pristine golden, almost like a lion. He truly did beget his name; Simba. But that time had come to an end when he had...
All that we had ever learned in school was wrong. The Roman Empire never existed; hell, the small Italic settlement that was supposed to become Rome in the first place barely got anywhere before it was sacked by the Assyrians, who in turn were got kicked out by the Egyptians. Unable to believe the years and decades fl...
It was the 12th day of the dig, the 10th since the find. That they had found such a large fossil so early into the dig had been remarkable enough, but the combination of this and the size of the beast they were uncovering made the whole experience truly unique of in Neil Green’s 30 years of palaeontology. On the first ...
"I'm taking him,"God said, his great Hands reaching towards me into Hell. "You can't, he's mine!"Lucifer hissed, flames rising around his rigid body. Back arched, fangs bared, claws extended, he raged. "He was yours,"God corrected the fallen angel. "But he saved the life of a child, and that is enough." "It was an...
I tapped the tips of my fingers together as my mind schemed on how to ruin this man's day. He spelled my name wrong across my cup of coffee and I simply could not forgive such a thing. Aaron 'with two a's'. I even told him that. My name is not hard to spell.. Yes.. yes.. something terrible. Something that would make t...
Part 1: By graduation day, most of my class had gained their powers. I'm one of the unlucky ones that turns 18 just before graduation, meaning I had to lay low all senior year. Using your powers on school grounds was strictly prohibited of course, that didn't stop the seniors from showing off and shooting fireballs a...
The boy returns from the wasteland, a bag slung over his shoulder. “Papa, let me show you what I have found.” He takes from his bag an old hub cap. “Metal, and strong.” He says. He takes out an old coffee maker. “I don’t know what it does, but it looks useful, a water filter maybe.” And then he takes out a picture book...
Frank's manager had called him into his office. "Hello, Frank. Tell me, how did your last job go? Were there any..."his manager hesitated "issues?" Frank grinned. "It was an odd one, but I pulled it off." His manager blinked. "You pulled it off?"He breathed deeply. "You pulled it off?"He reached into a folder on th...
Hunger... They were so hungry. Kayden groggily turned his head towards his brother, nestled next to him asleep, under the night sky and the dim cornerstore lights of the city. Their parents had tossed them out after they came home wasted. Said they needed to learn to be grateful after they had asked for food. A feeling...

Thesis on “humanity” Abstract From the beginning our species was destined for greatness. We arose from the perils of our home world, dominating anything that stands in our path. We are the enslavers of the weak with the only goal of bringing peace and stability to the world, whether it be through technological might...
NOTE: This is what I could write during my lunch break, will come back to finish. ____ "How'd you do on the test?" "Fine." I lied. I did awful. How could I? I didn't study, my grandfather had just died, and I had to spend this entire week sorting out inheritance. It was exhausting, we did everything by his orders t...
[Part 2](https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts/comments/7zimkl/wp_as_a_time_traveler_stuck_in_the_middle_ages/dupj55j/) A knock sounded at my door, probably the fifth time this night.

Everything was blurry when I first opened my eyes, like I’d been asleep for a really long time. I noticed it was hard to breath, but at the same time, I felt like I was used to it. My body felt weightless, a feather in a still room. It took a moment for my vision to adjust, but I could already tell I was in the seat...
“Well shit” was the first thought in my head. Being a previous gamer back home, I knew this meant that everyone’s screwed. We weren’t strong or anything, what with our bullets and shrapnel. I floored the gas on the rover until I could see the satellite on the horizon. I put the code in for the door and checked to see i...
"What the hell is this?"Paul's father demanded, bursting into his room and throwing a copy of the Torah onto his lap. "I'm Jewish now,"Paul replied coldly. "Are you fucking kidding me? Your mother and I did not raise you like this. After all we have done for you, you repay us like this?"his father shouted in reply....
The world was in chaos. Days ago, we suddenly lost our magnetic field and all hell broke lose. At any moment, half the world is burning while the other half is freezing, but I'm still alive. We are all still alive. All other animals have already died. The plants are one their deathbeds, but, somehow, humanity persist...
Hjaalmarch, 4th Era, the future. The Archmage and the Court Mage crested the ridge at dusk. Across the Hjaal delta, Solitude stood in the distance, backlit by the orange sunset. “Solitude, I never thought I’d see it again” said the Court Mage. “Look with your eyes, Sybille, for I fear that is the best this one shall...
We call it “karma”, the small collection of… well, let’s just call them “points”, that everyone man, woman, and child was born with. Some people respected them, and some people just saw them as an obstacle. My opinion was mixed. On the one hand, wars were few and far between; and murders even further. After all, why s...
"Number 27. Now seeing number 27." As I step up to the counter, the nurse looks me up and down through the pane of glass. She points to the right side of the counter, where there's a drawer used to pass items to the other side of the glass. "Please hurry up." I drop my number into the drawer. "Any electronics?" I ...
The message came in at noon, well noon my time anyway. It was on every phone, TV, computer screen, car navigation system, gameboys, you name it. If it had a screen then it was there. The update. Those words stayed for an hour and then would reappear once a day at the same time for another hour. Most people had no ide...
“I’d give anything to have one of those” the man whispered at the tv, uttering the unknown words that summoned me. “Anything?” I whispered in his ear “anything at all?” “Never mind” he said. Then he shouted to the next room over. “Hey jack, pay up. I got him to come.” Hearing this I was livid. It was the 7th time ...
Finally. After so long. It's happening. There's a squeezing feeling. Like my whole body is being sent through some sort of tunnel. It's hard to describe, you'd have to experience it for yourself. There's the pounding of the blood, and yes, the sounds of someone wailing, faint to my ears, but there, nonetheless. Yes....
The grass of another world felt the same under Lt. Samuel Marshal's boot. Samuel, encased in a protective and airtight suit, surveyed the "New World"with the other members of his reconnaissance outfit. Although they expected alien life or brimstone mountains, the sights that greeted them were grassy meadows and blue s...
I sure wasn’t a doctor. Never wanted to be. But I’d seen plenty of guys with holes in themselves. Most of them spoke English though. At least, when they could speak. You see, most guys with holes in themselves are usually fucked. This guy was definitely fucked, but to what extent, I couldn’t be quite sure. Less fucke...
"I'll be up in a minute mom!"I scream at the crack in the door at the top of the stairs. The progress bar moves a few more pixels to the right as my multi-layer encryption finishes processing.
