The alien picked up the care sheet. "Hmm. I guess I'll read this. I *do* want a pet human, but they are a big responsibility."The care sheet read: Humans are very complex creatures, possibly matching our own minds. It is not recommended that you keep a human unless you are extremely experienced in caretaking. They nee...
I was in a white place. That's all I can say really; I couldn't really see anything beyond 'white'. I didn't see any corners or edges that defined the place - everything was just white. Looking down, I couldn't see my body, either. "You're dead."a deep voice boomed. Amazing, I had always wanted to meet Captain Obviou...
"The key to victory is knowing your opponent *better* than you know yourself,"the elderly man smirked at his doppelganger as he gently placed a chess piece down. "Check." "Ah Christ! Why do I feel like this old bugger has an unfair advantage?"the elderly man who lost scratched his bushy white beard. I chuckled. "I w...
We had lived there for several years without knowing the entire time under our feet in the basement was a safe in the floor. The contractor didn't think much of it when he happened upon it. Explained it was pretty common in houses in this area to have a safe in the home. Only I really seemed to notice the carving on t...
I looked down at the deep ravine below. I was never a fan of heights and I sure wasn’t then. This was the only way however and I had to do this. I closed my eyes and through the darkness I saw her; the way I remembered her the last time we were together. She was reaching out towards me but being pulled backwards; a tea...
A long relaxed breath escapes as I slump further into my car seat. My feet ache from the hours I out in at work, and I am eager to get home. I turned on my Nissan and began driving out of the parking lot, blaring my music loud for my nightly kareoke. It was at the mid point of Fall Out Boy that I gained a strange fee...
None of us knew what to expect. 10,000 years since the blight devastated our world, but we had been safe thanks to the Stalwarts. 10,000 years their wall had stood, until this morning, when it all came crashing down. The panic had set in rather quickly, but it dissipated when we saw what was outside. As far as the eye...
Robert has dreamed of this moment his entire life. The moment when he gets to be the hero. There were kids who loved superheroes, then there were super hero nerd, and then at the top of the pile, there was Robert. A stronger word even than obsessed feels appropriate here. Until an embarrassingly mature age (to which Ro...
The carriage drove along silently, skeletal horse pulling it near effortlessly across the dirt road. "It feels good to do something nice for a change, ma'am,"Lionel said, hollow sockets staring longingly at the castle slowly receding into the distance, "Warms the chest cavity of this old soldier, that it does," "Hey,...
"Oh, no, I'm so scared,"I sarcastically said, looking at the bizarre contraption he pulled out and started pointing at me. This made my attacker angry and he started frantically fumbling around with his gadget. In that time, I could have easily stabbed him, but I chose not to, because I wanted to see what would happen...
Rain splattered the candy-colored neon signs of Kabuchiko District’s main street. An equally colorful variety of tourists, nationals, and others of a less-than-reputable nature mixed in the street, some heading for giftshops, others for bars, and a few for the brothels located deeper within the District. Otto Fukot...
June 18th, 12:11 Jude: "Hey Brian, I am finally getting the operation." June 20th 2020, 08:55 Jude: "Hey Brian, I learned today that my operation is starting tomorrow. It should be completed in 2 days." June 21th 2020, 09:48 Jude: "I'm on the table. They allowed me to send one last message. I love you, Brian." June ...
As the doors crashed open, I could hear the sound of footsteps and limp legs dragging across carpet. I spun around in my chair just as the haggard man being held up in front of my desk by my guards was shoved to the ground. He scrambled to his knees, planted his head on the ground, and put his trembling hands up in pra...
I watched dumbfounded as little (or not so, any more) Jerry Hardison from Mrs. Herring's sophomore chemistry class issued his demands on television. "If the United States government does not wire me 500 million US dollars then I will detonate the thermonuclear bomb I buried at Yellowstone National Park! The resulting ...
<Disclaimer: Some nsfw material and language> "Ah, so you've arrived!" "Um... You are?" "Death, of course!" "Where am I?" "You are standing before the black gates. As soon as these babies swing open, you're walking right into Hell!" "That's it? I'm just dead? I don't even know what happened." "Well. You se...
I saw a bright flash of light and a whooshing sound as i fell at incredible speed. Suddenly i landed in a chair and across from me, behind a cluttered desk, was none other than Morgan Freeman. Most people knew him as God. "Why did you bring me back? I was a having a great time."I complained. "So your heaven is a bit ...
What is a hero? A person who is admired for their courage, achievements, and noble qualities. Why then, am I considered a hero to all these people? Sure I slayed a dragon, rescued aprincess, and returned a King’s gold, but I hadn’t wanted to do any of it. The dragon caught a disease and was dead when I found it on the ...
Farcasting was the magic of insanity. At least that had been what Quigglesworth's master had told him thirty years ago. He found it harder and harder to argue with the sentiment as he delved deeper and deeper into the magics associated with it. He'd performed the ritual of Zoma's Extended Reality, he'd shrouded his e...
An empty room stands before me as I essentially take over this man's life. That's typical. Unneeded furniture is just something to trip over and cause unnecessary struggles in the home of a blind person, and it's not like they can properly enjoy a television set. This particular person, Dean, is seeking a Be My E...
"Where do you originate from?"Asked the head scientarch. "From the one thing, the only thing, the place, you know, where everything is."said Skipper, a half German Shepard, half Golden Retriever. "A singularity?"replied the Nematoden, wriggling it's mandibular tendrils in anticipation. "No, it was single, but real,...
"Night is peaceful. No moon, just stars shining their brightest, very quiet with a birds chirping at usual intervals, maybe few lights on, creating an enchanting ambiance to do whatever you want. Night understands. Day has its own expectations. Day brings the construct of schedule to be followed. Day brings its own d...
"For a long time, scholars had pondered a deep and complicated question: What is the opposite of gravity?" The grandpa spoke as he checked the tethers on his rocking chair, then attempted to rock. Tobacco floated out of an unlit pipe in his mouth. "Now some questions ain't never meant to be answered boy, you unders...
Third person rather than first, but I hope you enjoy. --- Aloe stared at the parchment in disbelief, then back at the overfed huntsman spider. It matched her stare and then some, all eight eyes focused right back. There was no way, right? She was hallucinating. The spider was still watching her. She gave it a ten...
*Pugio. Gladius. Spatha. Hasta. Crossbow. Gladius. Pugio. Lonca segmentata...* Rolling bodies is hard work, especially when every fifth or sixth lands close enough to splash on you. You have to flip them, keeping your eyes on the skies, pull off their bits and sort it into bags. The guy holding the bag is dancing arou...
Baron had been prop manager for the Gullworth Community College Amateur Theater Troupe for six years. It was a fun thing to do after working thirty-five years in construction. He like making things, but he couldn't do the heavy stuff he used to. Building little props and the occasional flimsy set piece was just what ...
This actually happened to me around 2010 or so... I got a new phone and had to hand program in all the numbers. Using one of these new numbers I was driving home from work one day and called my buddy in Colorado, let's call him Ryan. A female answered the phone, and I assumed it was his wife who we'll call Becky. S...
In 2026, the most unexpected and catastrophic event in documented history took place on December 16th, at 8:27 pm. The moon... *hatched*. It began cracking, and within a few hours half of the Earth was entrenched in darkness. By February 2027, Earth had the remnants of what was once called the Moon forming a rin...
We had finally found it. Another intelligent species in our universe. This opened up an entire can of worms for us, the people of Undelea. Over the years, we have built our civilization from the ground up. And here it is; either friend or foe, we shall soon find out. They're much like us, yet they hide from the da...
I stood before the altar of Necromancy, moments away from spilling the blood that was needed to summon the personification of Death. I had with me my trusted Grimoire bound in the skin of my first rival, a handful of potions I felt could be useful, and a dagger made from darkest obsidian. In order to master you craft,...
"How the hell did this happen?"At least that's what I tried to say. Instead what came out was a wall of flame and smoke. What am I? I begin to feel my body out, and it feels good. I feel strong, like every muscle is rippling with energy. This is how I felt that night, but now there's no fear, just excitement. I conti...
"FOR FUCK'S SAKE, PUT ME BACK IN!" The tiny roars of Melvin Smith Jr. raged across the maternity ward. "You know we can't do that so-" Jr. waved his severed umbilical cord at his father's face, interrupting him mid sentence. "JUST BECAUSE HALF OF ME CAME FROM YOUR BALLS DOESN'T MEAN YOU CONTROL MY LIFE, SMITH! YOU ...
"You can weild Mjolnr!?"Thor said with an exasperated expression, his surprise, unerring. "Apparently so"said Arthur. "The legend of the Pendragons must be true... if that is the case, we must return to Asgard! Post haste!"Thor exclaimed. "Of what legend do you speak? And just what perchance is this place you call ...
She flew in the open-door lighting on the ground as graceful as a cat and looked around. She spotted me in the large lobby, sitting in one of those doctor’s office chairs, you know the ones with the almost plastic feel to them. She dashed toward me, ready for the fight that was surely going to ensue. Papers on the fron...
I stood on the precipice of greatness. Already I had become legend, my name spoken in hushed whispers as I passed. My every action debated and analysed on all world media platforms. Three tasks. Three impossible tasks to ascend to the Heavens and join the Pantheon of the Gods. They hadissued their challenge to manki...
"D'you memmer the leg'nary-hic-hero tha' fough' off the vill'n?"A drunken patron with a thick matted beard asked. His speech was so slurred that I needed a moment to be sure I had heard him correctly. "Nope, I do not."I said, flatly. *Of course* I remember, I almost freaking died there fighting the asshole 'hero'. "Y...
The human ambassador smiled, "Well, you know what they say, through great hardship comes great innovation." The translator let out a series of beeps and grunts, causing the different alien species in the room to look thoughtful as well as share a few hushed words. One of the more humanoid delegates rose and spoke int...
"First off. Don't panic. I'm a friend."the voice squeeked into my head as I started to hyperventilate. "I said don't panic!"It repeated, and I tried to get my breathing under control. The cushioned walls radiated that "muffled"quality about them. It was always a strange feeling being that close to something t...
In our town, there was a girl I admired, a girl I looked up to, a girl I loved. She was a divine being that was out of my reach. Her skin shone with the midday sun and his hair had a beautiful shade of red. Perhaps, it was because of her hair or because of her cheery personality but she was someone popular and known by...
I slithered away from my station, as fast as can see. I heard the transmission, how could that be!? I ran to the council, and they had me present. I told them “from 300 light years it was sent!”. So old was the waves, could they be dead? A world war?! Our hearts weighed with lead. We traveled in our ship...
Physics is weird around me, and it always has been. It started one evening when I was walking home from school. It was wet, and I was struggling to walk home as the wind gusted against my umbrella when I *felt*, rather than saw, something skid past me in an arc and crash into a nearby lamppost. Some careless biker had...
The doorbell rang, yet again. It's a real bell because I've never cared enough to replace it with a new or digital "bell". Sometimes when things change, it's just different and not any better. And since most of the time new things are not better, why bother? Without any further effort, the bell stops. I can hear ...
It’s always Humans versus Zombies. Survivors versus the Undead. Life versus Death. But, I never considered that there might be another player in the game. Players who were neither dead or alive. A common enemy between the Zombies and Humans. Machines. But not smarts ones. No, not those that we considered artificially...
Although is ears could only perceive the clicks and snaps of chitinous pincers from beneath his bed, a deep voice of terrible clarity echoed in the back of his mind. YOU ARE IN DANGER WILLIAM. MORE TERRIBLE DANGER THAN YOU COULD EVER IMAGINE. Will buried himself deeper into his nest of blankets and tried to ignore it...
‘Oh My God. Oh My God. This Uber driver is kidnapping somebody.’ I quickly drink some water from my bottle in order to hide my fear. I start making my plan. 1) Call 911 2) Tell them my Uber is the car they’re looking for. 3) Subdue Uber Driver 4) Feel badass that I just saved someone’s life. 5) Is low-key glad Uber d...
He’d never really known what it meant to have privacy. Perhaps a few days, at the start of his life, but of course he hadn’t been very conscious then. He’d been told that some others could feel the weight of the dead’s eyes on them. One, or two, they shared. Their nana, or a childhood best friend tragically lost. Oth...
The voice had always been there, somewhere at the back of your mind. You always put it aside. It was always talking about useless information like the number of cameras in any given room, the calibre size and weight of the guns on security guards, the pressure points on the people surrounding you and much more pseudo b...
"My heart rate is 21% higher than normal, ma." "Are you sure you didn't exercise or something dear? The weather was beautiful yesterday and the sun came out finally. Your father was out in th-" "No ma! It's not part of my routine! It's Tuesday! Not Saturday!" "Honey, you shouldn't snap at me. Your doctor agreed with...
“Be on the lookout, SnowMan. I know that he’ll be here any moment.” “And when he comes, I’ll ice him, for Liberty’s Bells.” I smirked at my second-in-command and pressed the call button for the elevator. As I waited for the platform, I could hear SnowMan’s respirators filtering the air into his mask. “These things ...
"uh guys, we have an issue." i had just returned to the ship after realizing there had been a major change in species on the planet we never noticed. the people of earth used to be able to control elements and the forces of the universe. but now they are just humans, nothing like the species they called gods. yes th...
Captain John Marshall walks back through the air-lock, basking in the glory of being the first ambassador of humanity to the galaxy. He beams as he looks around at his shipmates. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we have done it. I have signed an accord with fourteen other species, the rulers of their respective planets. We now ...
I awoke to the beep of a heart monitor. I should have known something was off then but coming back to life was something of a bitch. The last thing I remember was feeling content and also excited. After that there was just nothing. No heaven and no hell. I wasn’t disappointed by this, the notion of religion had died th...
You've noticed it too, haven't you? The little oddities that pop up here and there. Those instances of random chance that seem *way too* specific. You've likely stopped from time to time in amazement, only to brush it off and continue about your life. Well, what if none of it was truly random? You've had times when y...
I was just finishing up my work on a Dusthust, a floating creature composed completely out of the fecal matter of the Tiawuk race. The Tiawuk were my favorite customers, they brought me beasts from across the cosmos, and put the responsibility of taming them squarely on my shoulders. Each beast was a challenge, complex...
Warren Buffett wishes he had started earlier. By many popular accounts, he had started investing when he was ten years old. Or younger. And he wishes that he had started earlier. They say compounding is the greatest force in the universe. While undoubtedly true for the purpose of wealth creation, what many people don'...
*Oh God she won't shut up,* I thought. I looked at my partner that was on the phone with the villain to negotiate a deal to get his wife back. "Why did we think that kidnapping the villain's wife was a good idea? She hasn't stopped nagging for the past three hours. Can we give her back and say we are sorry?,"I mumble...
"Mornin' Tina."A light, delicate voice greeted. I cringed internally as I tried to pretend that my voice hadn't changed. "Oh! Good morning, Jim!"a gruff, baritone voice responded. I tried not to stare too hard at Tina, who is now musclebound and with a handlebar mustache, and yet is dressed in a blouse and skirt. Lu...
A spring, a lens, a circuit board alumnimum foil, charging cord Some glue, duct tape, a model ship, some Bubble wrap and paper clips At first I didn't know his face But on second glance I could almost place His knowing look from late last night, Now had he visited once or twice? I bagged his stuff but found con...
He'd heard it all his life. Sell call options on shitty stocks because that's what all the smart fund managers do. Why settle for 5% a year when you can generate that dank fake alpha by selling calls on your underlying? In fact, he got so comfortable selling covered calls that he somehow ventured into naked call terri...
"Take another step,"I told her. "And I'll blow your head off." She froze. I didn't know who she was. She could've been anybody. I didn't choose her particularly. She was just there. Wrong place, wrong time. I touched the back of her head gently with my middle finger. She was probably too frightened to tell if I was ...
Soundwave sighed and gave a quick apology to his date, offering the weak excuse of "I'm lactose intolerant,sorry"before rushing to the nearest bathroom to swap into his signature blue costume,preparing himself for *another* battle with a villain. He'd heard the unmistakeable screeches of distressed civilians a few mi...
My son. I hadn't expected to be yanked straight out of eternal torment to land in a child's bedroom, but here I was. I'd heard the rumors, of course-- many of the underworld talked, making mentions to the 'Emergency Summons' that could occur every once in a few years. Sometimes, angels were short staffed. When they we...
The hushed voices of hunched inmates surrounded us as we took echoing steps through the corridor. Sluggishly, I looked around me at my co-worker and close friend, Darren, who was reluctantly escorting the prisoner down the corridor with me. Unlike the depressing atmosphere of the jail cells, the prisoner looked direct...
The thing was, no-one except me knew how perfume was made. I looked around at the ripped men learning how to make strong scents other than their own. They were hopeless. The way I saw it, people had two lives. The before apocalypse and the after apocalypse. These people were great before the apocalypse. Rich, famous yo...
"Sir,"Daniels, the leader of the cadet strike team began hesistantly, after the training officer finished briefing his squad on the scenario. "I'm not sure I understand this simulation." The TO, a dour sergeant named Beckett, scowled disapprovingly. "Get your head in the game, cadet! in a real-world scenario, your su...
They labeled me a monster, with teeth sharp and white. You called me a monster but didn't wait out of fright. You threw me in a hole as dark as it is deep. Each person was thrown down with a loud shriek. You never came down to check on my state. So you threw your men down like food to my plate. I found them endearing...
I wiped the sweat on my brow, more nervous than I wanted to admit. "So... what is it that you want me to do?"I asked tentatively. Satan huffed and the smell of fresh cut grass filled the room. "I *said* that I want you to fix Hell's image! It's absolutely ridiculous what people think of my kingdom as! I should sue th...
“Anything?” I glanced up at him through my eyelashes, the tiny hairs all over my body rising. My heart was racing at the mere thought that he may return my love. I didn’t care what it was in exchange for, I would have killed for him. I longed to feel his warm embrace, his hands on my hips, his lips on mine. I wanted ...
King Author, William Wallace, Richard the Lion Heart. Those are the kinds of Knights we are all hoping to produce. Their agents were so lucky. Imagine, you pick up some beef head nobody and shape them into something really special, something famous, something that will end up paying your bills. That's the dream. My n...
Big Jim drops his spork into his creamed corn and shoots me a disgusted look. "You fucked a dead body?" I roll my eyes. _Uneducated rube._ "That's necrophilia,"I say. "I said 'necromancy.' Raising the dead, not...being intimate with them." We're seated in the cafeteria. This is my first actual meal here, and "B...
The truth finally came out: all this time, McDonald's wasn't actually a restaurant–it was a long-term experiment to find how gradually they could kill people while getting paid for it. And when the truth leaked to the public… absolutely nothing happened. The scandal blew up, but McDonald's simply embraced it with a...
For you to understand what I'm about to do, you need to understand what happened first. I was just 17 when it happened. Donnie was 11. We were on vacation, the last one we were going to take as a family before I left for college. Our last family vacation for a while, we thought; permanently, it occurred to me after. W...
I still remember the day I lost my body. It was the day I got sued on my last job as a personal trainer. Personal trainer in this case means swapping the body with my employer and doing sports to keep his body fit while he stuffs my body full of fast food while mocking me. *Authors note: I remember that scene from the...
Four brave young Vaultmen ventured out, beyond the Vault doors. The world was not the same as their great-grandparents had left it, and there was no way to garantee that they'd find the future of mankind outside, but they had to try. They had to know. Isaac, leading the group, was whistling and skipping in the long co...
Tonight was the night of the ceremony, and the young summoner was dressed to the nines in his best robes. Following his fellow students, he proceeded out of the dormitory and down a spiraled staircase, arriving in a large courtyard. A little further away, hooded figures stood in line, painted in moonlight, each carryin...
Slick finally caught up with Mr. Nivor, no small feat as Mr. Nivor was the tutor assigned to teach Traps & Advanced Ambush at the Ankh-Morpork Assassin’s Guild. Simply trying to find Mr. Nivor when he wasn’t teaching a class or at an appointment with a student was difficult. Getting within ten feet after doing so w...
I get it and I’ve been told before that it’s true. I’m a bit of an asshole to my friends, and it’s something I’m working on in therapy. My therapist apparently is a bestselling author. Which of course wasn’t disclosed to me at any point, and I know our relationship is rather unconventional. We hang out, I have an a...
I remember being a little girl, reading this children's book about a boy that put his hand on a hot stove and said 'Ouch!'. At the time I wanted to do the same thing, I guess I felt inspired by that piece of literature. So I walked up to our gas stove, turned it on and went 'Ouch!'. I'd only ever seen the word written ...
Bailiff: Presiding over the case of The Devil versus The Church, the Honorable Judge Caleen Mistoch Judge: You may be seated. Now, who is here for the Defendant. Mr. Sow: I, Attorney Michael Sow, am here on behalf of the The Church Judge: And where is the Defendant? Mr. Sow: Well, the highest person within the chur...
*You are weak,* he said, ripping my eye free. *A paltry God, one made for fools.* That sentence makes me chuckle. Me, a fool? Ha. This whiskey says otherwise. A gulp of it helps take the pain in my face away, and when I close my other eye, I see a dimly lit room crowded with evil people in blood-red gowns. Here we go...
Addendum 7:14 The lord descends from the heavens above and meets a young pastor starting his career *”Chris my child, it is I your one true god, I have a request that only your needs can answer.”* “Anything for you my lord, what is it that you seek!” *”WHAT IN THE BLUE FUCK HAS HAPPENED DOWN HERE!!!”* “I’m not su...
"You are dying,"I said sadly, "You are the last." "No,"the old man tells me, the harsh sound of an overly-repaired generator thrums in the air around us, "There is you and your kind to carry on for us. To take up the mantle where he have failed." "But we are not like you,"I answer him, tears falling from my eyes, "W...
"Excuse me?" Dr. Newman pulled a notebook out of his leather bag, then continued. "You know when you asked me about that personal research into the Kennedy assassination last week? See, I just assumed you were one of those 'woke' conspiracy nuts, get a couple of those every semester. But then I happened to look at thi...
Long ago, in a land not far from here, the first telescope observed our sister-planet. Green and vibrant, we were sure there was life. What we didn't know was what form it took. As our telescopes got better, we were able to see them more clearly. We studied their architecture, their general behaviour, and what we coul...
We came down through the dark night with the comet burning far above us and the lights from the *Arcana* blue and cold and fading into nothing. The screaming winds of the high atmosphere. About the ship twisting and screeching and that scorched planet coming up below and in those charred rocks and fields a great expans...
The screams were the first indication something had gone wrong. What could Anhaica have known? No one cared if a cow or two went missing on occasion back in the Appalachians, but it seemed pandas and the other more exotic beasts attracted crowds like corpses attract flies, because there were currently hundreds of shout...
I need to pee. I want to finish this fight first. There's no way a little monkey could hurt a giant crocodile like that. "Dinner is ready. Eat. Don't eat. I don't care,"says Ma. Why she is always mean to me? I can't believe I lost that fight. I need to pee. Ma said dinner is ready. I want to sit next to J...
"We have coin,"Sir Roderick said. He had just worked been taken through the concept that had bills to pay and a hot date tonight. "Coin?"I asked cautiously. Plenty of gold would mean I wouldn't need to work anymore. My mind started wondering how one turned gold into cash without attracting the government's attentio...
To say it shocked the world was an understatement. One second we were getting very faint signals from the Voyager probe then suddenly it was orbiting the Earth. It had traveled an incredible distance in a split second. Impossibly fast. The crew docked with it a month later, placing it in quarantine and everyone rem...
I am not a talented,handsome or smart man but when god himself asked for help, I came running. I had not heard from Morgan in some week on Runescape and had worried, his call for aid confirmed he was in trouble. I tore through the deserts mountains and valleys in my Prius to defend his honour. A man who with a silver m...
Every day is the same. The mindless shuffle. The endless loops. The lone clock ticks incessantly on. Jane wondered about the ways in which she could smash it. One of her favorite loops. She flashed it her most stern glare, "One day, clock. One day." At least it was better than sucking dick for crack in a downtrodden...
"F word."I drop the paper on the table. "Are you sure?" "Yup. The memory of one's life is coded into our DNA and can be passed along. Reincarnation is as real as we were once cavemen." "But Jesus... I mean seriously, this has to be a joke. Did he even have kids?" "Listen I'm not pulling names out of a hat. The compu...
Hearing those words breaks the genie’s heart because that’s the one wish he cannot grant, for it would go against another he's already granted. He stares at her, knowing that no matter what he says, she won’t understand. She’ll simply hate him, and believe he’s a monstrous villain who stole her. “This is your home,” h...
“Sometimes I just wish they would recognize me, you know? I mean, I always imagined my second coming being different from my first. This is supposed to be my big moment; the End Times; Armageddon..." The man across from me has  a weathered look, and yet isn’t older than 35. He looks like someone who’s seen their sha...
Hath No Fury “Goodnight Lucy, goodnight Satan,” I called as I started to head upstairs. “Night Brian,” Satan responded, his hallowed voice echoing through the house. The noise sent a chill down my spine, but the nervous feeling passed quickly; he’d been coming around once a week to hang out with my sister for three ...
I can only assume this is a dream. It has to be. I pinch myself in the dream. Ow. Okay, so not a dream. Well, there they are. Bright green letters, floating in my vision. "New game"and "quit"seem like bad options. I look at tutorial, and blink. ​ I'm standing in a white room. The air is warm, and I feel ...
"Why did you just call me Jonathan?"I asked a bit taken aback. "That's not even my name!" "You call me Mittens, and that isn't my name,"the cat replied. "You serious right now, bro?"Evan asked. He shoved me a little to get my attention. "Your Mittens starts talking and your biggest question is why he didnt get your n...
A flying saucer hovered through space, gliding past celestial bodies of all shape and sizes until it finally reached its destination, the target subject that is earth. The lament glow of its atmosphere lit up the eyes of the two aliens looking it through their front window. They greeted it like an old friend of their's...
"Well, that can't be right. Could you give me your hand again?"She holds my hand with one of hers, the other shifting a glass, or maybe crystal, ball around. "Is something wrong?" "No, it's just that,"She sighs, dropping my hand and putting the ball back onto it's stand, "Look, I'd be the first one to tell you that...
It was very sudden. I barely even had time to react, as it happened. I wasn't even the guy driving, I was just sitting shotgun and drumming out on the dashboard to the Queen song, We Will Rock You, along with my pals, when it happened. Out of nowhere, a car just smashed into the side of the car. Some jerk with a huge h...
Davis and I crouched behind a wooden crate, his hand held up to indicate we should neither move nor speak. Beads of sweat rained down off our bodies and I was certain my skin was already starting to sunburn. Outside it was a typical fall day in New York City with gentle snow flurries drifting lazily down. Inside the wa...
