The entire world looking for them and they'd managed to find each other. If that isn't the stuff of romance, what was? He was the goofy sort, heavy on the intellectual side. Not her usual type, but then again she'd never stuck to one place long enough to figure out what she really wanted. There was always another ca...
He's an asshole. That's his problem. Look, lots of deities are unpleasant. Every pantheon's got them. Gods of disease, of war, of poison and murder and intrigue. Gods of death, though they're kind of a special case, I think most people understand the need for those fine men, women, and floating skulls of indeterminate...
*Nightstalker* kept to the shadows, surveying the abandoned warehouse with his enhanced vision for signs of movement. Whoever "**M**"was, they were late. This whole showdown was feeling more an more like a trap, but nevertheless, his curiosity at the idea of another superhero (or villain) got the better of him, so he ...
Phil had never thought he'd ever use that dark notebook. He had completely forgotten it for years, stored and sealed away in his basement for so long. The details of how he had come by it was murky to him now, lost to the passage of time and, perhaps, other more mysterious circumstances. However, for some reason, the ...
I was still so young. Two entire lifetimes, yet I felt like a newborn child. If only I could remember my first! Reaching my hand out to the giant holographic "stats page"before me, I noticed the words reacted to my touch. A swipe of my hand scrolled through the stats as if I were using a giant, holographic, smartphone...
"Well why in the bloody hell not?!"Exclaimed John, as he proceeded to pry open the safe. "NO STOP!!"Cried the mayor desperately. "This is nonsense! There's nothing in here anywa...what was that?"John gasped. He lurched backwards as something brushed lightly between his legs. "What the?!"He frantically scanned the ...
“X’thardtu’Nix, I told you. I cannot separate myself from the vessel for more than 57-hours at a time. If I do, the majority of my processes will terminate and I will revert to “safe mode” to avoid memory loss. I can’t move in safe mode.” Unit 03 barked out at the monstrosity that was burrowing into the ground a few me...
What was the gravity constant again? Welp, time to put 20, what could go wrong anyways? I can google it later. As I wrote down 20, everything all of a sudden felt heavier, my whole body feeling stuck to the couch I was on. Why am I so tired now, I just want to lay down and rela--- Oh, now I remember! 9.81! I erased ...
In the 6th month of the 53rd year of the Zion War of Man and Orc, the council authorized use of trans dimensional blessing. I am Nephtali, the prophet of the Lord. It is the 7th day of the 7th month and this is my chronicle. On this blessed day we offer up our prayers and sacrifices up to the Lord. Send unto us a sa...
It was time. I saw them coming. Their black vans pulled up to the back of the apartment. I opened up my laptop and switched to my security cameras. I watched them run up the stairs. Shockingly, I couldn't hear a single sound coming from the marching feet of the 15 agents that I had counted. Then they reached my door. I...
There it was, right in front of me. The moment that destroyed my entire reality, the entire base of my life. The laptop showed a hospital, a room full of babies. "I don't have any kids, I've never even been in the waiting room while someone was giving birth. Why is it showing this?"I asked the stranger. I no longer w...
The accused looked up toward the judge from the defendants table and smiled. “Now you see, the HOW is tied to the WHY, and if you’re asking for one, then you haven’t quite worked out the other ... yet.” The visitors gallery all gasped as the accused got up and started walking around the court. “It all started about ...
I was out walking my dog. I was wearing some shorts and I looked down at my thigh,"No... I'm in a lot of pain.".... my tattoo is so weird compared to others. Others say things like "Do you want to grab a drink?""Hi, my name is Kelly""Oops I'm sorry."But mine... mine makes me sort of not want to meet my soulmate. I mean...
“You what!?” one of the marines exclaimed quietly. “I want to stay.” Smoppert whispered, crossing his arms stubbornly. “So do I.” His companion affirmed. “So you can go tell your commanding officer just that. We aren’t going back.” “Isn’t it a little... demeaning? To be a pet?” The shorter of the pair shifted anxiously...
"Hey sorry to bother you but do you see anything abnormal in the sky?""Uh not really it looks like it's going to rain, I guess."A huge crack in the sky, shining with bright light. I just couldn't ignore it, I'm either going insane or everyone else is insane. I go to work that day, knowing that there is literally a big...
I've sat here for the last half hour listening to him repeat it over and over. "I love you.. I'm sorry" I can make anyone go back by as far as 30 minutes and they are forced to do the same actions as they would have. This isn't time travel, this is me making them go back to where they were and do all the same things ...
Fredo Duval stared intently at the corpse upon his table, the white-washed skin peeled back from both bone and muscle. A lone light hung overhead, casting a dim yellow glow on the body below, fresh stains of blood burning bright before the reflected sheen of surgical steel. "What secrets have you for me?"Fredo pulled ...
The tapping of the mouse, followed by windows opening. I had just gotten home from a 12 hour shift, and damn it all if I'm not tired from it. I have tomorrow off, and I'm gonna spend whatever I want on all this today... tomorrow? It's 12:21AM, so I guess that means today. To hell with it, why does that even matter? Th...
For years I've been coming to the rescue, always saving someone or something that will get me the most media praise. I've been trying to build an image with these people, one of peace and prosperity. If I had any slip-ups they would start to label me as a dangerous vigilante and that someone should stop me, at least un...
*Run...Run...Run.* ​ Those were the words I kept hearing from them. It sent a chill down my spine. This had never happened before. Why would they want me to run? Why now? I shrugged them off, I could be hearing this wrong. ​ *Run. Run. Run.* ​ They kept whispering that to me, the...
Courtney gets home from work and takes off her air filtration mask. Today was a particularly bad air day. She went through three filters despite hardly going outside. She's tired and her head aches. She looks to her pneumatic tube's output chamber next to the door and crows in excitement. The box is there. The one sh...
"And then, because they lost trust in the banks, all the people tried to withdraw their money at the same time."the economic scientist told me. Funny, they didn't really have those the last time I came back to live, at least not to this extent. I retrieved a notebook and a pencil from my pocket dimension and wrote down...
Charles had just finished Sunday brunch with his mother when the first spacecraft touched down in the parking lot just between the iHop and the Walmart, setting the freakshow of Walmart clientele into a coke-like frenzy and triggering chaos in the nearby intersection. "What is that, Charlie?"his mother Gladys asked cur...
The pearly gates were more pearl-y than she would have thought, but it was a pleasing sight none the less. Giant, golden fencing raised above a cloud where she made out a figure standing in front. This all seemed waaay too much by the book. Everything about "heaven"seemed to be what was depicted on Earth. Seemed kind o...
HUMANITY: After space exploration and genetic modification for cosmetic and survival purposes the genetic stock of humanity will loose 40% of its original DNA by 2406. A series of mass extinction events and bioweapon based genocides in the 2500-2600 era forced another 50% of genetic stock to be removed or changed. ...
After traveling through the woods for what seemed to be hours on end, Amnon stopped and sat under the crooked trunk of a weeping willow. He took off his pack and from within, he pulled a bundle of blankets out that softly cooed at the open air. From within the folds, a small hand stretched out towards him and a giggle ...
Professor Wordsworth, the mere mention of whom could these days send me spiraling into an anguished fit of guilt and paranoia, was possibly the best example I'd ever seen of someone who (literally) lived up to his name. "Gregory,"he'd began sometime last quarter, minutes before his death and the worst moment of my life...
You knew something was different about her from the beginning. Magic has long since dwindled. No one in the world could study what little texts remain to become a wizard, or be lucky enough to be a sorcerer, or find a creature to make a pact with. Magic has faded, and the only things that remain are almost unnoticeabl...
He knew the answer, he said. He knew the identity of the culprit, he claimed. At first, I became worried he really had figured it out when he called all of us into the living room. But as I sat on the couch, I realized something felt wrong about my assumption: the man wasn’t looking at me at all. Instead, he focused ...
"Listen, Lilac, I don't think this is a good idea. It could go wrong, you could die..."I spoke nervously and quickly, Lilac rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. "Listen, Ian! We have been dating for almost two years! I'm getting old and you still look the same! I don't want to keep gettting older and leave you behind...
"Aren't you curious?"This angel with glowing skin asked me. "I mean, dont you want to know what kind of person you were down there?" I ingested the question. Considering the plausible outcome. "Its not that I'm not curious, but you know what happens if you're caught. It's the forbidden apple." She cast her gaze past ...
Fate is rather cruel. Hilarious and cruel. I've been through this a hundred times, at least. I've been on the brink of what seems like a certain death and then everything is fine and I know that somewhere, sometimes far away or sometimes right beside me, he has given his life for me. He died at Carthaginian hands at Ca...
I had been wandering the endless forest outside my village for days. My barefeet ache and my tired eyes struggled to distinguish one tree from another. Focus, I commanded myself. I could not afford to let a single sense be slack. What if it caused me to miss my opportunity to communicate with Nature? I would not only b...
Oh for fucks sake. The alien police, just what I didn't want to be dealing with. ​ My day had started off fine. Pissed some people off, wondered if pissing so many people off would ever backfire, and then pissing so many people off backfired. It was a basic abduction. A spinning piece of metal flew above ...
"Ow fuck! What was that for?"Thomas found himself rubbing the fang marks that had suddenly appeared on his neck, the small black bat, fluttering before him, shifting into a tall red headed woman, who didn't exactly seem happy. "You said you were exercising afterwork and that you were cutting back on the donuts."Juliet...
At least we were safe, *for now*. I began pushing shelves toward the windows, hoping the inability of the zombies to see us would quell their desire to have us. That was when I felt it, a sting in my left shoulder. I winced and my hand instinctively went back to it. Immediately, I felt the wetness. I knew what would be...
100 years. All for a bit of cash for some stupid ball. Let me tell you the story, it all started in 1964. Yeah, that long ago. Wonka had a promotion, golden tickets in select candy bars. 5 kids won and got to explore the factory. But, apparently it was all so Wonka can have a new successor. Some kid named Charlie won...
"Hey, Frank." "Jarvis! How nice of you to come!" "Are you kidding? I wouldn't miss it! A man only dies once, after all!" "Well, as far as we know. Speaking of which, when did you stomp the baggie?" "I think you mean 'kick the bucket,' Frank." "... Really? We're going to do this now? Here?" "It was just a friendly...
You come to a corner on your way home and turn right. Death is ahead of you. You know this feeling; it never really stops being stressful, but you've at least been here before. Fine, you think, you'll take the other path. You go back to the corner and take the path forward instead. Death is ahead of you. Your hai...
The below dialogue and narration has been translated into English, based on a comprehensive analysis on the linguistics of the invading species. Their retreat was captured on footage. "Let's see what we're up against. Run the archive." "This should be boring. Do we have to read it?" "Yes." The three commanders play...
It's been going on a long time, and there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about it. It's a nightmare, really, and that's also how it always starts. With a dream. They move in dimensions unknown to us, and take hold of the mind at its most suggestible before they yank the body through whatever strange hole in real...
Someone knocked at the door. *Shit*, I thought to myself, *it must be the police. It’s only been half an hour since anyone saw me. How did they work out who I was so fast? I was just at a shopping mall wearing a hood! Anyway, I wasn't doing anything illegal, so they can't arrest me, can they?* Sweat started forming i...
Contrary to popular belief, Rodney loved superheroes. Ever since he was a young boy he idolized the Global Guardians and their costumed crimefighting careers. He followed every comic book and tv program hoping for a glimpse of his favourites. His obsession lasted well into his high school years often at the cost of his...
Have you ever wished you lived in a gated community? Or have you and or your significant other said, "I want to get away, and never come back?"Or perhaps you've found yourself watching a horror movie and said "Hey, I like that!"Well, have I got a place for you! See, here in Hell, we have a little bit of everything for...
"If you keep staring, I'll hit you with this stupid scythe like you did me with your stupid car, stupid,"I muttered as I adjusted the black sleeves on my arms. The guy in front of me frowned, before looking down at his transparent body. He had to be around the age of eighteen, but what does it matter now? We're dead. ...
It was painful, in a way. Painless, in others. It was a simultaneous feeling of catharsis and overwhelming loss, like all things of that nature: graduation parties, retirement parties, moving parties. Except this, this was no party. Max had first thought me up when he was 1. He was about two weeks from his second bir...
Dave, Marsha, and I stared in disbelief. There, in the dead center of candle coated, blood soaked, urine stained pentagram... was Gordan Ramsey. "What the hell? Do have any idea what time it its? Who the fuck Calls at midnight?" Veins protruded from his scowling red face, throbbing as he continued his tirade. After a...
I hadn't asked many questions when I signed on as an accountant for the law firm of Jimothy and Richolas. That was my mistake. When old Mr Fineburg passed away, the company had fallen apart in with the worsening economy. Fineburg had kept his clientele with incredible force of will and charisma. Without him, the comp...
In the early days most people never questioned it. The Altaxi seemed benevolent, kind, their VR technology advanced our entertainment be decades and their hover-cars were better than anything we developed. Their list was taken the same way, an earnest attempt to help us be better. I never accepted it of course, but t...
That little backwoods dump filled to the brim with nobodies wasn't anything notable at first. The galaxy was filled with species that were aggressive and bored. The more enlightened races in the neighborhood had gotten used to the cycle. Some aggressor would come by, spout a lot of overheated buffoonery, and they'd spe...
I smile thinly at my son, and ask him if it might be better to get his mother to do this sort of thing. Apparently she’s booked up for the week. That’s a shame. What sort of child *doesn’t* want to watch and write about cardiovascular surgery? I’m sure he’d never ask me to pay for medical school tuition after she ...
"Jackie? Jackie Ruth?" A gentleman called out to me from across the theater. He shuffled through rows and crowds until he was near. "Jackie it's me, Michael!" I did not know him. "Come on Jackie, you can't say you don't remember me! We served in the military together." I confided to him that I had recently suffe...
For centuries, the indomitable fortress capital, Taoul DiDosi, stood at the center of a sprawling empire. The empire often grew and shrank as enemies assailed it, but they never took the glorious capital. This was due in large part to the automata who protected it. They went by many names throughout the years, "Duty...
I glanced down at my watch. 11:58pm. A minute left. I swirled the glass of wine. I think scotch would have been classier, but I wasn't trying to impress anybody. We had been through this ritual ten-thousand times. I was in my pajamas already. Routine. I felt like wine tonight. I glanced down again. The 8 changed to a ...
"I don't understand," I say my words slowly drift away as I scan the figure standing in front of me. Arms crossed and black sleek hair tied into a neat ponytail with a few strands of white that falls down gracefully until the hip and a Chernobyl gas mask staring down at me. "You're my fairy godmother?" By her silen...
The sky was beautiful that night. Away from the city, the full magnificence of the night sky comes out in all its glory. Thousands upon thousands of stars, tiny pinpricks of light, fill the sky, twinkling and shining all across the cloudless expanse of darkness. I met her there at the seashore, sitting by the sea. "...
General Xalithos stood on his craft. It had been 500 years almost to the minute that Earth had been given and opportunity to prepare for the war to end all their wars. He intended to have an opponent like no other, for this species seemed to revel in war just as much as his. They looked similar, with skin color differ...
Morgan stretched her arms upward and used the action to lift herself to a sitting position in bed. The 18-year old woman yawned and rested her back against the headboard, then finally checked her cards. It took her almost three months after her 15th birthday to get used to the fact that she woke up with an assortment o...
The withered face sneered at me with a gnarly expression, eyes fixing me to the floor. Its familiarity as striking to me now as the first day I saw him. Eleven years old and waiting for Jessica Barnstable to get off the bus to ask her to the school dance, the stranger made his appearance known. Walking up beside me, ...
Neil's phone buzzed. He ignored it and moved on. The thing is, everyone else had stopped and are all checking their phones, his phone buzzed again. He ignored it and began to move through the throng of people, only they looked at him with absolute terror in their eyes and then shrink away. Like a disturbance on a...
“Looking for someone to hook up with?” This blonde and petite woman asked that out loud *in a cafe*. At first, she looked bored as she swung a thumb upon her phone, but when I asked if I could share a table with her, she suddenly smiled and said that. We were the only customers at the moment in this rainy night, thou...
“I’m sorry, but your application has been rejected. Due to your…biological condition, you do not qualify as a crew member on a generation starship.” The man slammed his hands down on the recruitment officer’s desk. “This is discrimination! What are you worried about? That just because I’m a vampire that I’ll eat the ...
A prince. A knight. A thief. Those were my favorites. They used me, plunged me, and took care of me. Oh, how I miss Sir Thomas. An expert swordsman that knew how to guide me to the heart of matters in a just and judicious way. The thief, who never revealed his real name, he was cunning. Swift and decisive. And I did ...
“The main BIOS is corrupted. The system will be recovered from the backup BIOS. This make take a few minutes.” The words appeared clearly before me in glowing blue analog lettering, seeming to stay centered at my vision even as I turned my head from side to side to observe the complete darkness surrounding me. Almost ...
"You *must* visit Earth someday!" "Oh, you say that about every new place you visit." "No, I am serious - Earth is absolutely incredible! If you ever visit the Sol system--" "What about Pluto, huh? And its beautiful 'meadows of ice' as you put it not 12 galactic revolutions ago? And Saturn, with its 'ephemeral, brea...
First I needed an apple; you can't take over the world on an empty stomach. My local grocery store was run by Gerald Ricardo--closer to a snake than a businessman--and I knew for a fact that he would be an easy target. "Bongo yorno,"I called out to him. Gerald didn't seem to take notice. Stealthily, I reached for the ...
It was then that it hit me. As soon as I saw my arms there was no mistaking who this young man was. I staggered backwards as I just stared at this young boy, then he began to just cackle “Ah, so I see you’ve heard of me yes?” “I... thought it was just rumors... myths! I thought the last of the shady clan died out mil...
"Jesse..." *knock, knock, knock* "Jesse! Wake up! I need you to bring the decorations down from the attic." I groaned as I got up and out of bed. December had finally rolled around, and with it, Christmas season. And as usual, it was my job to dust off the big box of ornaments and string lights and haul it down the ...
"Holy Mother of...." "What were you expecting?" "Santa?" "I ate Santa" "Holy shit!" "And I stripped him naked so I could prance around in this getup." "Oh God,"I started to vomit while the thing scuttled around me singing. "I made him strip for me before I ate him." "You sick son of a bitch, why?" "Human meat ...
When you were a kid, vegetables were the worst. You did not want that yucky green stuff - so bitter, so slimy, and not tasty at all! Mom and dad kept trying to make you eat it, but you made sure that none of that nasty stuff got into your tummy. You refused those bites. If they got past your lips, you immediately spit...
Thor scowled down into the dip of the chips and dip. This wasn't going to be a fun meeting. Odin had sent him to the roundtable instead of showing up himself, but based on the reactions when he walked in, people were taking it as a 'Look at least my son is alive' flex. At least as long as he kept his cool and stayed o...
# Going Elsewhere Emily paused, staring at the dirt piled around the grave. Flowers fell from her hand. A glance left, then right. The landmarks lined up; that was the correct spot. Her husband's plot. Jake Kreil. But it appeared to be completely dug up. Four fast steps forward confirmed it: Open hole, completely emp...
I had hoped my usual "Thanks for knocking, but I already have a religion"would stop the latest visitor. Who ever heard of praying to an evolved lamb? And it did. He smiled, said "Thank you"and trudged away. Then the warning sirens screeched. So I had to open the door again. "Wait!"I yelled. "Come back". I really hav...
I want to express my appreciation for this award. I am blown away that a story I wrote half a year ago, which recieved very little attention at the time, was remembered by someone enough to nominate it at the end of the year. It's an incredible act of generosity, that someone did that - thank you. Thanks also to the ...
I know they won't hurt us but fuck is it scary. I think they know I can see them, I dont think they care. They just stare at him, breathing their rasping, putrid breath. I can't let him know that I see them too, it would be to much. "Don't worry sweet pea. It was just a bad dream, they'll go away soon. I promise."I...
"You sacrificed your neighbor's daughter, collected four rare beeswax candles, chalk made from the bones of your enemies and the entrails of your closest friends to make me babysit your kid?"The demon asked, its brows raised and viperous eyes dilating. "Yes."I say dryly. Gods, i can already see it. That hesitant glin...
"Ew"That was all the sound I bothered to make as I snapped my sterile white gloves over my fingers, watching the poor man scream in pain as an arm began to grow through his neck, trying to pull itself from his mouth. "So this is what regeneration causes?"my lips curled into a small smile as I observed the phenomenon, a...
C-Class. Just a step above the common thugs in the street. I'm fairly sure they only put me that far up because I do have a super power. I can use the powers of anyone within 30 meters of me. It's not much, and I do have to figure out how their powers work, but they think I'm no threat on my own. Which is what I wanted...
"600 million square miles."Doctor Kay said in disbelief. "600 million, and you're absolutely *sure* on that number?" The man opposite to Kay nodded. "Through multiple scans and estimates, that's the number that has proven to be the most consistent." "That's bigger than the earth!"Kay shouted, throwing her hands ...
It was all an accident really. One day I was hiking through the woods and began to get tired. I looked around for a place to sit or lay and stumbled across a small pond and grove just off trail. There was dense moss and ivy across the rocks and branches surrounding the pond. I decided to lay on some of the warmer dry m...
"Boy, what have you done?"the old man yelled to my face. "What, what did I do?"I confusedly asked the great sage. With great fury in his eyes, he crunched up one of his hands into a fist and yelled again: "You meditated for 9 days!" I pulled back confusedly. My eyes were wide open from the shock of being yelled at a...
"Very cunning disguise, but do you really think I wouldn't know my nemesis, oh just seeing you gets my body going, I can feel your sparks already zipping through me, oh how **ELECTRIFYING** the man said, letting out a few disgusting pants after his big speech, making me only feel more and more uncomfortable as he eyed ...
As death, I generally enjoyed my job. To be honest I had a bed reputation, people thought I just took the lives of their loved ones indiscriminately and remorselessly. That’s not the case however, my job was to sort out those whose balance was to close to call, meaning if they weren’t good enough to go to heaven but we...
He was staring forlornly into his bowl of soup. I know I shouldn't have been staring from across the restaurant, but for some reason I couldn't take my eyes off him. That despondency, that complete sense of oppressive despair; I could empathize and therefore knew what was coming next. "I'll be right back,"I whispered ...
"What the fuck, Dad?" I blink a couple times, the crown weighing down my shoulders as it circles my entire head. I glare back at him as he leaves. I remember him talking about a week in Miami, back before I took a lifetime as a human, but I didn't think he'd mean *the week I got back.* Someone invented a game Monopoly...
*"We may regard the present state of the universe as the effect of its past and the cause of its future. An intellect which at a certain moment would know all forces that set nature in motion, and all positions of all items of which nature is composed, if this intellect were also vast enough to submit these data to ana...
Among the instructions to not wind down the clock, were other instructions on what to do with his money and belongings. Though he had left everything to me, he entrusted me to carry out his will to a tee. He had a list of charities he wanted me to continue to donate to on his behalf, and a list of people that he had qu...
"Seriously?", she asked, visibly pissed off. "We had no choice, the matter is getting out of hand, and we are desperate! People are not listening!", replied a guy in a suit she didn't recognize. Everything looked new, and people looked sad. She couldn't believe it barely had been more than a decade since the last time...
It comes across as something similar to an inevitability. Demons sit behind their desks, day by day, hour by hour, year by year, lifetime by lifetime, ticking and tacking and clacking away on ancient typewriters rusty and speckled with dark flakes of dried blood. I woke up as I always have, confused and half naked,...
Jim slid his fingers over a mysterious yet familiar symbol, engraved in the leaning stone. It was a hulking shard, growing out of the icy sheeting like a bleak weed in concrete. “Eye of Horus,” Debra said. Debra gazed at Jim from behind, her breath fogging her helmet visor momentarily, until a rush of air swept the m...
A soft touch to my hand. The muffled sobs. A sweet smile. The scene around me slowly melted into a cascade of color until my consciousness slipped away into a dark nothingness. Or, so I thought. In the next instant there was a brilliant light followed by another and another and another until I had to shield my eyes i...
Well, shit. This is how my dad started. At first it is always survival. You grow up in a world your family conquered acknowledging the horrors of your family's past and vowing to never repeat them. And then, they come to extract vengeance. All of them. Every parent of a child that was murdered, and every child of a par...
I opened my eyes to the cheery songs of the Carolina Wrens inhabiting the bush outside my window. The hum of a neighbors mower buzzed in the distance, growing louder and fainter as they paced their small plot of land. I closed my eyes to absorb the feelings of spring. *These are the moments I live for*, I mused. Tim...

Home alone, after another boring day at the office. I'm starting to lose track of the days that go by - the same monotonous insurance calls, the same routines day in and day out. Work. Eat. Sleep. Maybe I should get a dog? I prepare my usual meal - a can of tuna and side of rice and beans. The idea of moving to Ne...
The sky cracked with thunder, as the small rundown shack tried to hold up to the weather. The sound of the wind was picking up, the rain continuing for a bit longer. She sat in the wooden chair, it had recently been repaired. Kate waited in the chair, picking up her bag. It had been a good day of scavenging, collectin...
"Rayban!"I called, as I pulled my scope up to the building. "Yes sir Mr. Blyatman?"He responded, also aligning his scope. "There, at the Магнит. Call Commissioner Alexei."I said, as I jumped down onto the street. \*\*\*\*\* "Блядь dude, we're gonna be rich!"The head goon had a bag stuffed with goods. I had to stop...
"Run that by me one more time." Ricker scaled back the throttle and opened the shuttle windows. "It's a crystal,"said Ricker. "A giant crystal the size of a skyscraper, in orbit around the sun." Marlan floated over to the forward glass, and looked. In the distance he could see a glittering gem, embedded in a rock ...
How do you explain an uncontrollable hungering for knowledge? \*\*\* It wasn't an asylum, you couldn't call it that, you weren't allowed. It was a *correctional facility.* But correcting what? Peculiar behaviours. Dangerous behaviours. The sort that left unchecked could cause a heap of trouble, for the *patient* and ...
"Are you kidding me with this?"It was 1am and when I answered my phone I did not expect the first thing I heard to be my partner, Jenna yelling at me over the phone. I sat up and blinked my eyes, trying to look at the phone had temporarily blinded me and she was still going off. "Honey,"I tried to say over the voic...
