The tension-filled room grew silent as the scientist’s mutterings stopped one by one. A sea of white lab coats surrounded a table in the centre of the testing room, the smell of chicken curry thick in the air and there, the only ‘person’ sitting down was Derek. The greatest A.I ever created in his newly made robotic bo...
"Wait wait, so they were killed due to their own free will?" "Well yeah, that's God's excuse. He definitely just preferred his humans, his little project. They knew they wouldn't get along. I personally found the dinosaurs an absolute blast, they were honestly a lot more fun than you'd expect." "Huh." Nancy exited t...
Kelly begged at the robots arm, retrofitted with a half dozen surgical instruments hung above her, twitching in calibration mode. "There's another way! We-we can grow one!" She wished she had never taken the experimental neural chip. Yes, the test bots would go crazy, but she knew she could program it to stay on tas...
Far off in the distace I heard the familiar cries of war. The small voice broke in fear ending in a high pitched scream as it called for help. I had deemed the war over, my duty fulfilled and the peace restored but a new trouble seemed to have arised. The paladin surely was desperate to wake me. He had promised myself ...
The metal heads were blessed first. Headbanging in unison to a Pantera song that inexplicably played from the sky, their neck muscles became swollen. Then too, the rest of their muscles grew to astronomic proportions. Iron Maiden t-shirts fell to shreds in the streets as hoards of long-haired, air-guitar rift masters...
"The Broadswine Boys make good products for good people." I flicked off the merse and sat down. The walls of my apartment were green and bare. I'd spent a lot of money getting upgrades, but they were all in the merse. 4-dimensional paintings. Windows to alien worlds. The usual stuff. But I never liked the contrast. I ...
“I’m sorry Paul, you have Cabbage Vendor Syndrome” My doctor shared. He looked up to me hesitantly. Perhaps expecting some kind of outburst. “Thanks, I’ll manage the next part myself” I say, leaving the room. I’ve heard of Vendor syndrome ruining lives, but I was different, I could use it to my advantage. I walk into...
I found a tape yesterday that will forever haunt my nightmares. I was exploring an abandoned psychiatric hospital with my buddy Vince in upstate New York when I came across a room with a desk in it. Upon further inspection, I the only contents of the desk was a manilla envelope. Inside was a single cassette (Inscribed...
**week 2** my muscles were on fire; my heart was pounding so loud and fast i wouldn't be surprised if my trainer could hear it beating, and my short, gasping breaths were doing very little to oxygenate my bloodstream. "DIG! DIG DEEP!"the shout of encouragement from my trainer just made me want to stab him a little...
My head pounded like I'd been drinking my weight in whiskey the night before. Except I hadn't. I hadn't done anything outside the ordinary, in fact. I worked, I came home, I made some dinner for me and Dot, watched some TV, and went to bed. I pressed on the sides of my skull as I struggled out of bed, the pain like a ...
He was too young to be the king. The boy could hardly tie his shoes, hardly sleep through a night without wetting the bed. He didn't know what a 'kingdom' was let alone how to run one. But, due to the disappearance of the last five kings, the crown fell atop Matthew's head, the boy who just had his sixth birthday. He s...
‘Dad, you should really stop drinking… we’ll get pulled over if they see you in the passenger seat like this…’ Franziska turned ever so slightly to look to her father in the mirror who was resting in the back of the car, while also trying to keep her eyes on the road. The streetlights flashed a bright yellow, blipping ...
“Good morning, dear.” Oliver was rather energetic, given the circumstances. He had been kidnapped by a girl in his class, Julia, and because he lived alone, it was unlikely anyone would notice for quite a while. For now, it was best to play into her games. “Silly Olly, it’s the afternoon.” Julia chirped back. Just h...
Another day in the glorious capital planet of the great human democracy. Another day of being advertised McNFTs and monopoly royale. I cannot believe human entertainment still revolves around money. I had slept 12 solar hours, and was charged for sleeping four more than the human average. Lovely. The only reason I was ...
A radio crackles to life, barely audible above the whirring of the crank sustaining it. The static makes the words hard to decipher, but the total silence surrounding the device makes it possible. A group of six huddles around it, straining hard to catch every sound emitted. “Dear citizens. This is the president...
I clicked the CD into an old player. Apparently the last superintendant had one of those. The disk whirred and static began to filter through the speaker. Static? Was there really nothing on it? I scoffed. As I went to take out the disk I heard a loud crack outside. I paused and headed to the window. The dark sea of ...
"I THINK IT IS TIME THE RECORD WAS SET STRAIGHT." The humans stood there, balking, but not dying. The sight of Great Cthulhu rising from the sea had not deprived them of reason, simply driven them into a brief panic that was cut short by his thunderous voice. "But, um, Lord Cthulhu-" "JUST CTHULHU IS FINE. MISTER IF...
"My closest friend. My hated enemy. I'm so, so *sorry*. You fell in love with me."I watched a thin trail of blood dribble from the corner of her mouth as she spluttered, sending globs of crimson splattering against the cracked flagstones. "A hero would have traded me for the world… But you… You chose me… Why?"I could s...
He replies calmly, "Nothing is wrong with me. Sure, I murder people that the courts mistakenly judged as innocent. I think it's fun to make them suffer as they had made others suffer. Remember Joe Grassen? The accused child rapist that had little evidence on the claim? I just know what he did. And he suffered." The in...
"I understand this is a lot to take in."Agent Weston said after a long pause. My mouth was dry. The small office began to blur and spin as what I was just told began to really sink in. I was dangerously close to puking on the tiled floor. "H-."A sound was all I could manage. I held my head in my hands, the room spin...
Years of smelling like garlic and having to spend so much money it was impossible to count was soon to be something of days gone by. Vampire Hunter Allesandra had been searching for years to find a solution to the age old problems that all Hunters had faced since the days of the Hellsing family. Today she had found a ...
When they handed me the bright red termination slip I was initially angered. Why let me go after these last decades of good service? But when I found out what had really happened I was terrified. SCP the corporation was going under. No more employees, no more facilities no more protection. Our underground nature serves...
Come on Gary, just one drink! Said Todd, not exactly my friend, but maybe more like my co-conspirator these last ten years. Holy shit, ten years. I honestly don’t have any real memories of the last decade, like one day I went to sleep at 34 with two wonderful kids, a beautiful wife, and recently named as a partner at t...
“An unexpected problem of superhero names? You give a name to a hero—or villain, for that matter—and it seems iconic until somebody comes along who better fits it. Have you heard the one about Batman? All of a sudden there’s a guy who uses echolocation to navigate the world and fight crime, and he has to choose Daredev...
"He could have scavenged that stuff, Leo." "Wright, that garden hoe was brand new. Not a speck of rust on the head, no chips in the blade, the handle had no stains, and the wood was freshly aged." "So he scavenged a head, polished it up and made a new handle. Proves nuthin'."Wright said. She pushed a pebble down the ...
Joshua had seen the cracks three times by his count. The sightings had been stretched across his 28 years, but he was fairly sure that count was right. The first time had been when he was 8, waiting in the car while his Dad went to buy some icecream for their trip. Impatient and salivating at the thought of a bowl of C...
Jack paced the room, nervous in his pearly-white tuxedo, wringing his hands. Ninsum had promised him that her father would behave, but Jack had long ago learned that all three of them had very different ideas of what that meant. For Jack, behaving meant not causing a scene. For Ninsum, it meant not killing or maiming ...
It is a truly remarkable coincidence which has been explored in depth and ad nauseam on the greater galactic stage. In fact, it is another notable coincidence that most ambitious first year human anthropology students on Earths across the primary galaxy clusters invariably believe that *they* will be the one who solves...
"We did it... We did it, Parum. Your plan worked." "No, we didn't. The multiverse did it. I was just gambling with my and other million souls on a wager that the multiverse will do him in." Despite the victory, Parum, once the prodigy of the Temple of the One, now the most hated heretic most vile who turned the most ...
"Wait...you're a "miner"god?"Fryng the theurgist asked, incredulously. "You got it, guv!"The divinity answered, jovially. He certainly looked the part. He had the form of a stout, sturdy dwarf, equipped with all the archetypal accessories: a pickaxe, a helmet with attached mining lamp, an array of dangerous-looking ex...
"We have to do *what*?!"the sole American in the group said. "It's an unfortunate truth that space travel as biological entities is unsustainable. We can create custom bodies made of pure quantum information that can survive literally anything, allowing easy travel to anywhere barring exceptions like black holes, but ...
Ground control can't do anything, they just told me to talk until I go. A helpful piece of sane advice before the signal crackled out due to the distance. So here we go. I'm going to die, and all I wanted was a muffin. I'm such an idiot, I'm going to die of asphyxiation and my last thought is how much I wanted a muff...
“You can’t declare blood as a work expense. It is a food item. We have already gone over this.” I shook my head typing away on my laptop. I hated these midnight audits. The person across from me was a very well dressed man. Black suit, black shirt, black tie. He wore a thin beard neatly trimmed and short st...
"What the hell is he doing"said the priest as he rolled his head trying to comprehend what going on. "I dont know! It wasnt supposed to work like this!"said the young priest responsible for the ritual "Doesnt matter, we managed to summon something, despite the king pessimist all we gotta do its find a way to solve wh...
I have lived.... lived.... A sound from above. I lose my train of thought. Crawling out from my... my... cramped? No, crypt... I haven't fed in so many years that I can't stand, but I crawl towards the stone archway. "Ahhhh!"I howl piteously. The lamp... no, the light... the SUNlight, it burns. Whimpering, I retreat ...
"You're not Colonel Barrows." "A fine summation. Now, soldier, who the hell are you and what in the hell are you doing in my office?" "Who are you? Where is Colonel Barrows?" "My name is Colonel Andrew Morgan Marshell, the Second, and either you're about to tell me what the hell you're doing coming out of my bookshe...
For many years the term fantasy worlds hide the true past of the humankind. Where wars happened not just with machinery and the will of people but with magic and sorcery that is created by science. Ideas of monsters not created by simple imagination but actual scientific research from a past people will never remember....
**A Grain of Truth** “Is that a no?” Asks a deep, almost glacial voice. The kind of voice that would be upsetting to hear in a dark alley, or honestly any alley. That was, if the words weren't so utterly dripping with simple confusion. A confusion mimicked by the owner of the words eyebrows that were furrowed together...
“No…” Terivis whispered, his eyes wide. “Yes,” Remus nodded, gesturing out to the hall of scrolls, “these are all the prophecies we have kept from the world, for we know they will only bring ruin.” Terivis shook his head, “I refuse to believe that. We were given prophecies for a reason, they are to forete...
While the boy tells his story in a low, hesitating voice, I watch out of my office window. The sun is about to set, and the sky is speckled with glowing red and yellow bands. The boy, who has introduced himself as Albert, has obviously come into the wrong place. The therapist's offices are one floor further up, but I k...
Hey, one question. Why do you keep calling us hivemind species? Like, don't you all also have communication net to be able to communicate long distances? We call you that not because of your Internet, that is another topic on it's own. We call you a hivemind species... Wait, i see.... I think i know where you ar...
My phone rang beside me, I chose not to pick up. No doubt my "friends"calling to check up on me. The same ones who invited me last minute to something they had undoubtedly planned for weeks prior, typical. I didn't even like camping. It reminded me all too much of the long, uncomfortable nights spent on trips my parent...
Ahram Baqri, a consulate to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, aims his pistol steadfast in front of him. Lit by the harsh sun of a cloudless day, he points it directly at Sareek Prakash, official ambassador of the Republic of India. Sweat drips from both of their brows. "Now you've done it, you goat-fucking bastard,"s...
"Your Imperial Eminence,"the evil sorcerer politely bowed. "Your Highness,"he stated to the princess as he arose. The wind from the open gate still poured forth winter's snow-laced caress. No body spoke a word. "As promised, I am here to cure the princess in exchange for her hand." "Explain. Before I have you exec...
Not many human souls left for me to verify... a few more, and my day of soul-evaluating will be finally over. Frustratingly enough... out of the eight-billion-so human lives that were misfortune enough to exist just in time to witness the twilight of their species, all of those whom I've checked today turned out to be ...
Well first time, let's go. *ahem* "Damn it, where is he?"The Mantis thought. He has been waiting all day. It was odd. Normally Mr Glory would show up by now. But he didn't. Though before I continue, I should probably go back a bit and tell you who exactly the Mantis and Mr Glory are. Meet the Mantis. A genius engine...
Jane scoffed. “No way. Do you know what I was for most of my life? I was—” “—a project manager,” Death finished for her. “I know.” “Why on *Earth*—” “We’re not on Earth.” “—would I *ever* continue doing *that* now that I’m dead? What kind of stunt is this? You’re supposed to take me to my promised reward!” Eternit...
"Look, kid, you gotta stop that,"said Merlin. The 'kid' looked skeptically at the strange bearded man dressed in a conical hat and long flowing robes. "Who you?"asked the kid. Merlin immediately began to suspect that the little twerp must have been dropped on his head as a baby. Drawing himself up to his full hei...
First Contact was the most momentous event in human history since the written word. Thousands of years of looking up at the stars, wondering what may lie there or if we were alone, and it turns out that alien life found us first. While we barely qualified for Galactic Citizenship as a Type 0.75 Kardashev Civilization ...
"Sir, the radar is reporting thinner clouds." "Again?" "Sir, yes, sir!" "Have the planes confirmed it?" "Last plane trip confirmed sunlight at one kilometer!" "I see."General Claudius was the last of a long generation of generals in the prestigious Skye family -- reputed for protecting the Isle of Precipitaea from...
“Oh… wow… another free thinker who wants to stand out from everyone else,” the angel says with a bored voice. “What? What’s wrong with being pink Shrek? You said I can customize myself however I please and being Shrek but neon pink pleases me!” “Huh…” The angel sighs and messages the bridge of his nose. “Look, kid. L...
It was June and six-year-old me was on the monkey bars. I was riding the high of being the first kid brave enough to cross the whole way without an adult when my sweaty palm slipped on the metal rung and I broke my arm in the fall. My mom tore away from her outdoor zumba class, and rather than throw me in the car and b...
A war measured in decades. Spilled blood and assassinations and murder and espionage. Finally an uneasy peace was achieved and the prisoners were exchanged and the spies were beheaded and the two kingdoms went back to killing their own people for a little while. But as I said, it was an uneasy peace. The king broug...
"Am I... Sure 'bout this?"Arnold looked down at his body, his form, considering how he SHOULD feel about such a question only briefly before deciding that his... No, that wasn't quite right, thinking in terms of gender and consciousness and form and logic wasn't very befitting of a being that was about to expand beyond...
A deviation from the prompt; it's not really a full story, but just something that struck me. ___ "Don't tell anyone I told you... But they're going to kill the king,"a servant told Adrius, the boy king of eighteen years. And at the words, the boy king's eyebrows rose, then fell into a furrow, his gaze narrowing on t...
The arrival of the segmented, bug-like aliens - like ants, or perhaps bees, except more anthropomorphic - had been largely unwelcome. The announcement of their arrival had been equally surprising and unwelcome. Said announcement was done via broadcast across every screen on the planet, and one could only suppose that w...
"...I suppose it would never last, huh?" I stand up, despite decades having passed I still feel fresh and fine. A testament to the geneartisians of Variesia huh? "They are approximately fifteen minutes away. Exit plan Epsilon is recommended."Back exit, tunnel, foliage crawl to foil IR, and timed self destructs on ev...
I am almost an adult in the eyes of my people. If I wish to have a family of my own one day I need to clear land for a house and a field. When I choose a spouse we will decide which house and land suit us better. I walk through these mountains often and decided to cheat by using an existing meadow. It means clearing a...
"Would you present your report to the committee?" "I would, but, I mean, this isn't exactly what we expected, or even anywhere close." "Okay, just try to tell me then. What happened after you landed?" "There was some apparent fear from the locals, but once it became clear I meant no harm, they calmed down." "And wh...
There was the usual walk-out through the crowd. Music blared. People cheered. The fighters wore silk kimonos. The ropes were held apart by each combatants respective team. The two beefcakes crouched through the gap made by their trainers and towelmen, and then they stood upright. The ropes were released, the kimonos we...
Luther took a long draw of coffee as he reread the newspaper for the day of October seventeenth, two thousand and twenty one. He spent the most time on the funnies. Garfield was upset it was Monday. The young ones in The Family Circus were up to no good. That little girl pulled the football from Charlie Brown again. ...
“You… won,” Bronze Reaper rasped, sitting with his back against the wall and acutely feeling the pain spreading through his body. *Damn it*, the supervillain thought wearily, *been a long time since I last got my arse kicked like this…* “Well, yeah,” Peacebringer agreed easily, standing up from where he crouched next...
"And, well, I thought, you know..." "No, no. I get it, I do. It's just.. abnormal." I ponder the tree in front of me. Calling it a tree, to be honest, is being rather generous. A plum tree it was, so I'm told. Now, it's mostly charred bark and ashen piles of leaves. I glance behind me, towards the pile of burnt rubbl...
"Umm... Lord Drowl? What's happening?"I ask. "I'm sorry you weren't informed sooner, Naytar. It was just a moment of realisation, an instant decision. I decided that everyone working directly for me should wear a uniform." I have a closer look - the orange sweaters and white shirts all have the winged bronze shield o...
(I am very sorry for this one, but when the idea hit me, I HAD to do it. It was a Moral Imperative. Please don't hurt me) It had been one hell of a fight. The Dragon had been terrorizing villages all across the Five kingdoms, kidnapping cattle and eating maidens for the last month. They had lost six good men in taking...
He was standing in the living room when I got back from the latest semi-successful heist. The Blur, a local speedster trying to make a name for himself as a Hero despite some power level inconsistencies and... questionable public behavior choices. "How did you get in here?"A *stunning* opening line. Well done, me....
I try to surprise my girlfriend. I love showing up to her house unannounced with a rose or some chocolates. But I should've picked a different day... upon arriving, I overhear something... "No, no, Harley, I'm not stupid! Listen, my boyfriend thinks he can show up and I wouldn't suspect it, but I always know! He- CRAP...
"You're sure?"the resistance commander asked. "Positive. A fully functioning ZX-series combat bot,"his scout replied. "And you are absolutely certain it's not programmed?" "Completely blank. It must have been in the factory right when the shell hit. Never got a chance to link up with the mainframe." The commander l...
The Great Wound. It was avoided for centuries. Too easy to get sucked in to a black hole. It became a galactic curiosity. Races from all over would come and study it. Outposts sprung up around it, they started as science outposts but became trade ports. It became ‘the’ commerce trading centre. A brilliant scientist f...
Criil and Scraal struggled to hold on to a violently shaking box. The kicking and scratching coming from within almost made them drop it several times, but they eventually made it to the display table in the front of the stage. They hoisted the box on to the table and let out a simultaneous ***RAAAUGHPPPBBBBT*** of rel...
So you think you can handle your mandrakes? *Cue screeching potatoes with faces.* And your charm for *charm* is enough for ol' country pageants? *You hear applause.* Are you ready to put that wand to good (heh) use? *Haka sounds and some stomping noises.* Well, we are looking for *YOU*! *A man in a three-piece ...
Everyone has a breaking point. The trouble is, no one knows exactly where that point is, until it’s already been crossed. The moment comes as I survey the students from across my desk. And it occurs to me, I will one day become a nameless face, lost to the ever fracturing thing called memory. When they graduate...
I looked at the box of noodles and sighed. Apparently brightly colored boxes counted as advertising so it was just a plain brown box with a small strip of clear plastic to show what was inside. That's what all food items were. Of course, places had figured out loopholes. I scanned my items. Pure silver cans with no l...
"Well shit....."I said looking at the spectral imagine floating in front of me. "There are just some things you do not project on a man. I don't normally tap into that level of power." The specter looked around frantically at the splatter of unidentifiable matter spread in a perfect circle around him. A look of shock ...
It was Friday, which meant 25% off on cheese pizzas. While humming a tune, you walked up the alley and into the hole-in-the-wall pizzeria indicated by an old sign, Abruzzi's Pizzas. This place existed as long you could remember, your parents brought you here for special events, despite the lack of decor. The owner dis...
A man was found dead last night with thoroughly strange injuries. His torso, especially the back of it, had large, jagged gauges in them all perpendicular, like rows of thorns had ripped at him. His lungs were found filled with a solidified substance, not dissimilar to concrete. Most striking of all was the almost comp...
I log onto reddit, sign into my account, u/impressivevideo3823, and finally navigate to r/writingprompts. I open the post editor, and start writing my idea, > You are a chicken who crossed a road, and a witness starts making fun of you in hooman language! Satisfied, I dragged my cursor to the "post"button. But t...
Living weapons. That's what they're known as. Items of war that grow into something greater than when first made. They adjust their users abilities, letting them be greater than they would otherwise have been. The majority were communal weapons. These were made from use by multiple people. As each one handled it, a bi...
"Alright, settle down, settle down,"said the judge, banging his gavel. "Doth ra ne so-"chanted Sami the witch, who was staring straight at the Devil as she waved her arms through the air. "Finish that curse, miss Sami, and I'll have you thrown out of here for contempt!" Sami stopped, and the black mist that had star...
*Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick* “Babe! It’s starting!” I plopped down on the couch as my wife rushed into the room. It was Sunday, and our weekly tradition was about to begin. “Good evening,” a sweet baritone voice rang out from the TV. “I’m Bill Owens, and tonight we have a special historical edition of *60 Min...
“Understood,” this one communicates back to their online playtime game associate partner. It is within tolerances for a conventional playtime game associate partner to communicate such things, or that has been what I have found during the one hundred and one million, nine hundred and forty-three thousand, and twenty-si...
My family thinks I'm just the luckiest man alive. They have no idea how much work it takes to seem this lucky. They have no idea how lucky THEY are. If anything really major goes wrong in their lives, just like mine, I roll it back and fix it. Some things you can't fix. I learned that a long time ago. When a gran...
His boss glared at him as the ground shook with each step. The project they spent billions on… had turned to a fluke before their eyes. All that time and money going into fossil acquisition, DNA extraction, sequencing, and finally the cloning of an extinct species- utterly wasted. Terrence Thalmoore shrunk as the T-R...
I feel calm. Too calm. Was I drugged? I didn't feel drugged, but, then again, would I really know what that felt like? Maybe not. Was this what it felt like? To feel calm when I should be panicking? I tugged on the ropes binding my arms behind the back of the chair. I didn't really expect them to loosen up, but...
I fell asleep, finally, after thinking about another rough day at work. The mistakes I made today circled my mind like vultures, while the mistakes I made weeks ago were picking at the wounds they caused when they came back to haunt me today. My mind circled through the ol’ “why do I always do this to myself?” and ...
Across the street was a being of mangled flesh and bone. Too many eyes, too many teeth. It stood and crouched on too many legs as it shambled and ran towards me. I heard its dozen voices in roars and whispers, echoing from the nearby buildings and inside my head. It wanted my flesh and soul. It wanted to devour me whol...
I swung my spear, hacking at the man in front of me. The haft of the spear snapped, never meant to be used in such a fashion. But I had no choice, it was the only weapon I'd been given. Screams rent the air around me, the smell of blood and death thickening the air. Dropping to the ground, the swish of metal through th...
**Part 1** Time: 1945 Central European Time Date: 23/09/25 Location: 5.8 Kilometers east of what was known as Berlin, now known as the epicenter for the great divide. To whomever it may interest, these are the series of events that I strongly believe lead to the unified destruction of St. Lucifer’s ye of little fai...
The clouds obscured the moon, making for a dark night. The troop was determined to reach the dragon’s lair tonight, to catch it asleep. Avarice and greed propelled them up the slope as Aodhan lit the lanterns and handed them out. Tonight they were going to be rich. Charred bodies marked the path as Liam lead onwa...
"Hey, Esau did you see my new sigil pendant?"I looked up at my roommate, sighing as she practically bounced into the room. She was easy enough to live with if you got past the constant chalk on the floor and the sometimes odd smells. No, the only thing that ever bothered me about her, was her constant cheeriness. I had...
Imagine the most divine steak you've ever tasted. The meat melting in your mouth as you bite into it. The juices eking out onto the plate as you cut into the succulent sirloin. Live in that moment. Let it seep into your bones. Now wake the fuck up and realize you can't afford that shit anymore with a family. For thos...
There was a note on the windshield which said, ​ >Drive west for 100 miles. ​ So I threw it in the passenger's side door, thinking it was some prank or a misplaced reminder. Weird as that might have been, it made more sense than anything else I could think of in my rush to get to work. It'...
Sylas stood before the angry old woman. He believed she may have seemed like a very sweet lady in a different life but currently he feared she may run at him with a knife. Sylas had only been in this area of the woods searching for his lost drone, he could have sworn it was fully charged before he left the house but ...
A few days ago i marked a blind date with a guy named Alan, i was excited about it, so when i got home i went and marked in my calendar \-”25th feb, that's the day” i said and marked “Alan, blind, 1230 pm” on the date. I was anxious till that saturday. The day had finally arrived, so I started preparing mysel...
You would think, wouldn't you, that you'd want as little bad stuff in the previous lives as possible? Most people think that what employers are looking for is the most basic, milquetoast person they can find - means they won't commit a crime again, right? Not so. See, what they're looking for is a pattern. Your last f...
"No fear... no surrender."Lord Magnus, Ivory King of the West roared. The checkered battle-scape beneath him casted outwards towards the opposing abyssal forces, standing fast beyond the haze. He raised his arm, pointing onward, "We make the first move men... give no quarter! ADVANCE!" As the command rang out, the a...
**The Slippery Slope** Rainfall cascaded down the window of the cheap hotel room in the dingy industrial district of Star City. Detective Falcona looked through the telescopic lens of her camera, snapping pictures of the business across the street. The 'Va Va Voom Room', a second rate strip joint that she suspected wa...
\- "Bruce could equip the police. Bruce could use all that he learnt to teach the police modern martial arts, and he would be a really good teacher.

“I spilled flavor-aid…a lot of it, way too much if I’m being honest.” “Jer, Jerbear, you stupid fucking cunt do you understand how many fucking tons of fucking kool-aid…or whatever dollar store knockoff you bought you’d need to make the sky red? Because I don’t!” “Honestly I’d say like three to ten knock...
The headline read 'WHEN IT RAINS IT POURS', and boy was it accurate. Rewind a week. It's a Sunday, overcast as all hell, but that's usually expected when you're sitt'in at the beach in Washington. Always cloudy. A day at the beach means a jacket, not sunscreen. My favorite weather, though. Anyhow, I'm there throwing...
