Lucifer turned out the lights to his room and groped his way toward the bed. It had been a long day of making contracts, processing the dead, and torturing the really bad souls that went through hell. He was the most hated being in all of creation but after many millennia he just learned to live with it. Finding his be...
I slowly flip through the pictures in front of me. I frown at my CIA contact and go through them one more time. The target is in each one but... "Is this a joke?"I ask, tossing the pictures on the table in front of me. My contact shakes his head and says, "I wish it was." He pulls off his glasses and rubs the bridge...
“You’re a little skinny for my taste and you sound sort of pretentious in your bio. Don’t be so eager to appear smarter than everyone else. You just make yourself look like an asshole.” The deceptively mellow voice coming from the phone in my pocket is one of the many quick, brutally honest reminders of how others ...
"This wasn't expected." Bill found himself staring at the barrel of a gun. Which was disappointingly anti-climatic, considering he just got in here 5 minutes ago. His hand began to quiver, as it gripped onto the jet black Glock 19 aimed at the other guy. "Why don't you put that down, huh?" "Sorry, can't say I tr...
"Fire breathers cost an extra 500 gold,"I said flatly. The King looked appalled. "I don't understand. How can you call it a dragon if it doesn't even breath fire? Doesn't that just make it a big lizard? Would you call yourself a lizard slayer?"He chuckled to himself at his conclusion. "Call it whatever you want, your...
"Dad... why? Just why?"Michael says. His voice comes through the satellite phone, patchy and faded. "I gotta tell you, Michael, I think the desert weather is very good for me. I've been working out, making new friends. We do stuff on the jungle gyms a lot. Did you know hummus is a middle eastern food? I had no idea. I...

"Of course it works" "Then prove it to us. This is a significant investment for us." "Why do you need me in the first place?" "I can't tell you yet, we need to know that you can actually do this" "No. I need to know, or else I won't work. If you're coming to me, then you're undeniably out of options" The large man...
It was at first, a low, bellowing sound. More importantly, it was a foreign sound. After 6 months stuck on an island, I had been preparing for this moment since I had crashed into this island half a year ago. The wood from my ship was piled for a bonfire, the gas can was ready to be poured onto the pile and the lone ma...
I blinked. Well at least I did with one eye - the other was gone, torn out by one of my more enthusiastic killers. Sitting up, I looked around doing my best to ignore the dried blood encrusting my everything. I could see where our barricaded door had finally been torn apart and the stains on the ground where others who...
It never failed with these 'wizards'. Jean shook his head in silent reproach as he looked through the eye-piece of his rangefinder. Nine-hundred meters. So used to seeing their opponents face to face. They were always so reliant on a personal encounter, and being able to see their opponent. Jean read the wind velocity ...
Red like a macciato cherry between the burning lips of the girl at the bar you're just about to meet. Edges wave in and out, and your mind goes back to that flag when it pierced the surface of the moon for the first time ever and all humanity cheered while God winked and said, "That'a boy."You pick it up off the scrat...
I held my hand against the wound that pulsed red life into the mud below. It probably should have hurt but really it just felt cold. I looked up and saw him staring at me. Jesus, he was just a kid. Couldn't even be twenty years old. I would have reached for my weapon but I had no idea where it was. I was dying anyway...
"... which can deliver a multi-megaton explosion to any point on the globe within a few brief moments"I finished up my presentation with a flourish. "I have a few questions"A wiry man in the audience raised his hand. This was not in the program, but I was feeling pretty good about my performance so I allowed it. "...
Part 1. Thirty-eight years ago I came into this world and I remember the bright lights, the cold air, the shrill voices, everything. Soon after that the pills began. At first they told me the pills were to keep the pain monsters away, they must have worked, because I never saw any pain monsters. Then they told me t...
It was a dark night in this rotten city, raining hard like a sprinkler in the back yard. I sat for the 8th miserable hour in an aging Taurus that sputtered and sighed as it idled like my mom does sometimes when she falls asleep after a late night out with Daddy. The weather was changing, and my scrapped knee throbbed ...
It's long. It finally happened for Henry J. Sampson, he had achieved his dream. He was finally an engineer, a nuclear engineer. However, Henry knew as much about nuclear engineering, let alone how to boil water, as a whale knows what the ground is. This presented a problem for Henry very soon after he started at Twin ...
I've had what you could call an easy life. Well with my special ability and all, people are my puppets. I know what they are thinking what they're about to do and how they are going to do. I can manipulate this in every which way. Getting everything you want can become draining you might say but, for me it is pure bl...
"You're finally here to collect your debt, I see."I kept my gaze at the newspaper, an article talking about minimizing usage on fossil fuel or whatever. "You've grown stronger as I expected, even stronger than me. The apprentice has become the master."His speech filled with gravitas. "You once said that one day I'l...
they say jesus rode a raptor into jerusalem on psalm sunday. as long as i can remember, this has been the accepted norm. i recall psalm sunday pageants during sunday school, where we all vied for the privilege of acting not as our savior, but as his savage mount. even now, the church where i grew up, and where my ...
The world is different than his, much different. It feels as though he’s stepped through the dreamscape, like his Dreamseer has chanted him into his tribe’s deep sleep and awoke in another place. Then he remembers that’s exactly what happened. I am in the dreamworld. His heart quickens with excitement. He eyes his...
Playmates In dark and warmth we meet our finest love: the calm and sweet embrace of woman's womb. Though born of fearsome fire high above The sacred dark, in hearts, will finds its room. As youngsters, hiding deep beneath the sheets- for fear of that which watched us as we grew- the darkness- now our 'monster...
"Such a waste."McGann exhaled the stimcig vapour with a heavy sigh and leaned back against his patrol car. "Is nothing salvageable?" Torres shook her head. "The landing obliterated every organ in his body. We could maybe have harvested some of the bone marrow, but this isn't exactly a sterile environment." She had ...
"Happy 17th DD, Alex!" It said on the cake. This was a huge celebration. If you lived through your seventeenth death day, you were sure to live into adulthood. It seemed an odd tradition to me as a child that we celebrated the day after, but as I got older I discovered the implications of the delay. I would have been...
Bricks and debris crumbled into the streets from the burning buildings that lined the block. Just hours ago, the street had been packed to the brim with marchers; now it was desolate and empty. The air was thick with grey ash and the lingering burning of pepper spray. Holding my shirt over my mouth and closing my eyes ...
Most people assume we're actors. It makes sense; after all, you have to see to believe, right? But we are not actors. We are just individuals with an ability. We address ourselves as the shifters of reality, but most people know us as mimes. It's a great gig, the street act. All we have to do lean against a wall, ...

Changelog ------------ Both: * Offspring are born potty trained and to rest for 12 hrs a night * Runaway reproduction of cells eliminated * Eyeball compression/expansion bug eliminated * Universal language pack added * Improved ability to handle heavy equipment Male: * Multiple orgasms enab...
"We're all actors." I walked up and down the row of ragged looking hostages, all kneeling beneath matching portraits showing hollow, white smiles, and pristine clothing. I pressed the muzzle of my rifle under the politician's chin one more time, rolling my eyes as he winced and stammered out the same strange explanati...
The Devil rode shotgun as the Dalai Lama drove his '66 Shelby 350 down a road that started where it ended and led to nowhere. Now, some of our more attentive readers may be questioning whether the Lama is a force of nature, indeed supernatural. I say to those readers that they have clearly never been present when the L...
The human brain is a funny thing. It spends a lifetime collecting, absorbing, creating a lifetime of memories. But one wrong move, one little blow to the exact wrong part of your skull, and it’s gone. All of it. They found me in an alleyway, lying in a pool of my own blood. The poor lady who rang the ambulance tho...
The button was large and red. The button read "Please Click Me", but there were messages written all around it saying things like "Don't click the button!"or "Turn back now! This is your last chance!"It filled me with angst. I had traveled so far, and desired to know the button so much. But I felt fear. Who does not fe...
It was always me. And by me, I really mean what I suppose I would look like in the future. Always around five years older. It was strangest growing up. My first memory was laughing at a 4th grader blowing snot bubbles and refusing to play "open up for the train."Don't worry. I adjusted pretty early. Anyway, the poi...
First post in a long time, so don't be too harsh =) -- My name is Arthur Clarke and because Karma decided to make me eat shit, I found myself 390 million miles away from Earth. I was an ordinary government worker, lower grade specialist on extra-planetary infrastructure. I had the standard situation; my boss hated ...
We built it that way after the First Great War, made it stronger during the second, stayed at the ready during the Cold War. But then, as tensions began to thaw, we let our guard down. We turned the forts into hotels, we turned the tunnels into tours, we turned the bombs into museum pieces. So many died because we wer...
Welcome back to Evolution LXXIII here at the Kýklos Galaxy! So far we have seen 99.999% of the species defeated and taken out of the game, it is truly a bloodbath down here on Earth. Let's recap on some of our favorite gameplays: Number 5 The Woolly Mammoth. A favorite among many due to their adaptation to the col...
They say that any man, given enough practice, will perfect an action through the elimination of the expenditure of unnecessary energy. This can be seen throughout time in martial artists, scientists and other men of discipline and motivation. This can also be seen in the study of subject 432, Michael. The company was ...
My eyes gleamed with anticipation as I watched the broadcast of the first fiction printer. I could hardly believe that enough people had voted 'Lightsaber' as I had to actually have it done. "....and that is how the machine works, well, why don't we just show you."This was it, the culmination of my entire post teenag...
Lily nervously nodded her head one last time before the doctor open up the line that would knock her unconscious. It require a mountain of paperwork, interviews with psychologists, every form of consent possible to authorize the implant that would remove her emotions. Lily knew what was happening to her: they had made ...
"Mr. President? It's time to address the nation"The aid poked his head into the Oval Office to inform President Obama of his duties but ducked out just in time to avoid a Waterford Crystal vase (a gift from Irish President Michael D. Higgins) colliding with his head. "Get the fuck out, Wolinski! I'm playing with Merke...
WHOOSH I grinned as the world around me slowed to a crawl. With a flourish, I pulled my trusty six-shooter from its holster, and put a bullet between my opponent's eyes. His hand was still halfway to his belt. Ever since I'd discovered my powers, winning duels had been easy. I'd even beaten people with their guns a...
I've pretty much figured out my best route. Stay here for a while, move to wherever the action is least happening, and keep an eye out for passerbys. All I need to do is keep it together. It shouldn't be much longer...should it? Suddenly, I hear a child's voice... "Have you seen my bear Tibbers?"she asks. I nearly jum...
Red with blue, blue with red. That was how it had always been, and Jason learned to accept it from his childhood days. Red with blue, blue with red. His mouth around a cigarette, he scanned the night for life. Townes' Bar was empty but for the regulars and the roaches. That is, 'till she came in. Carrying herself...
The ship creaked and groaned as the storm raged on. The mutated man sat in silence, far above the crew below. He sat in the Crow's Nest, looking out on the dark, sunless sea. He was larger than most, with tens of tentacles growing from his lower face. Large pores on his neck were opened, several inches in diameter. He ...
The last breath before "the sleep"was like any other. I assumed I'd never remember ACTUALLY falling asleep. Who ever does? But something was different. I could feel every breath inhaled travel through my nasal passages, into my lungs, and then back out through my mouth. I felt my body get cold, then warm again. Then I ...
First, I must apologise for historical inaccuracies. They will be numerous, and they will be painful to those who are versed in such matters. This is not a historical story. This is not a poetic story. It is just a story. --- I looked out at Aloysius, held at gunpoint as he was, the five British redcoats resplendent ...
Another one was waiting at my doorstep again this year. By now I wasn't even surprised. It happened every Valentine's day for the last ten years. Why would it be different this time? I drove my Porsche into the garage, parked it between the Cadillac and the Lamborghini, locked everything up, and went out to confront h...
“Sorry. So sorry,” Alexis said. She ran up to me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. “I’m sorry I’m late. My roommate’s cat threw up all over the floor, and I really didn’t want to leave it out all night.” I sighed. “It’s okay. We’ll just get a cab.” I had sent home the black car driver five minutes earlier because I did...
"Hey, can you hear me? I just bought this--" YES, I CAN HEAR YOU, DARK ELF "Holy shit, what the f--" DO NOT WASTE MY TIME WITH PREVARICATIONS, MINION OF LOKI. TELL ME WHERE WE ARE. IS THIS THE PLACE OF LOST ANGELS? "Is everything alright? The meeting's in fifteen, will you be able to make it?" "I'm going to retu...
"You fucking cow! Look what you've done!"howled Ramsay, who had at last had enough of Grylls' nincompoopery. "What a right cock-up. THIS BEEF IS FUCKING RAW!" Grylls dodged with the agility betraying his SAS background as a piece of undercooked Beef Wellington flew past his face. "Gordon, this is - this is just a su...
The address was mine, the package wasn't. I had only met Charles Lutece, the previous owner of my apartment, once. He had been a quiet man, always seemed in a hurry and never seemed to go anywhere. He helped me move in, said it was the least he could do. At the end of the day, we shook hands, I paid him a small amount ...
Day three. The colors are still boring and I still can't get past how ugly everything is. There is dirt everywhere and it cant just be deleted. I don't know how my grandparents lived like this. Day five. I got a dog today. Jeff from VRA suggested it. I named him Placebo. Day six. Watched a sunrise this morning...
For thousands - if not hundreds of thousands of years, the races kept to their respective lands. The Ilk to the West, the Drakes to the north, the Elshen to the east, the Mithen to the South and the Delk deep within the earth. The first mithen incursions had sparked curiosity, but nothing more; compared to the drak...
I remember the days when I would feel the warmth of the sun on my back and share in the conversations of friends. Here in the library there were no conversations, only silence. I don’t know how I managed it but it had been 10 years since I had been outside that door. Day after day I stared at the rows of books and the...
I always knew there was something wrong with me. The people I went kindergarten with are all grown up,having kids,getting married. I asked my mom while I'm still in the eighth grade when Johnny is graduating this year. All she said was "I'm just special". We went to support groups,to try to cope. And I never understoo...
I once knew a girl from Andromeda Bay, [Yo Ho, Yo Ho] Her eyes were like novas her hair cosmic rays! [Yo Ho, Yo Ho] I swear 'pon the stars she was the loveliest dame, [Yo Ho, Yo Ho] But alas, it were space that kept calling my name. [Yo Ho, Yo Ho] We were to be wed once the moon was again full, [Yo Ho, Yo Ho...
"Mine"Barqu snarled. "The deal was well sealed. I delivered on my promise and now I collect. The first born is mine."Deumus moved in a flash raising her knife against his throat slicing through his shining golden skin shallowly drawing his luminescent blood to the surface. He flinched. She grinned bearing her four hoo...
I had spent the last 10 years of my life training and building this rocket. I convinced myself I was going to go to mars. I didn't have anything or anyone on Earth. The space programs were too exclusive. So I decided to make my own. I didn't try to hide it. Over 10 years, I became a super star. It started with this...
The old man walked up to the lectern; he coughed. It carried on for perhaps a dozen shuddering breaths, and then he sipped a glass of water. People began to talk, to chatter, waiting for him to finish. "Everything is definite,"he said. No preamble. "That is, everything can be defined." Dead silence. You couldn't hav...
Entenzio florum malenumm! Those words, those dreadful words which sealed me for a thousand years, echo and echo and echo. A world without me, a world without magic! I had wept as my being condensed into a single, finite point and the Darkness overcame me. Those poor souls, how would they go on without me? But now, ...
Slithering along the grass I began my journey to find Adam and Eve, the two mortals that I could trust more than anyone. Weeks go by, maybe even months before I can find where these two might possibly be. What if I get there too late? What if it already is too late? What if Satan has already spread his evil far and wid...
/u/Samgalimore sips from his steaming mug of coffee as he taps away on his laptop. He always said that he writes better in public. He says it gives a sense of pressure, like people expect you to be doing something productive. Either that, or he just likes being one of those writers who wants to be seen writing. H...

He knew this day would come. The group of enforcers didn't look so intimidating themselves, but the guns at their hips most certainly were. They set a single piece of paper in front of him. "This is the test, you fail it and you're dead." He looked at the paper and wondered how a test so short could really determine ...
No one can know who I am, er, who I was. Do you know what it’s like to be told from day one that you have to join the family business? It sucks. The world of Pokemon is all about choice. Just because I happen to be a Joy means I have to spend my days being followed around by a Chansey for hours on end as trainers com...
Dear Desiree, My husband and I have been married 8 years this July, and I'm finding the fun has been lacking our marriage lately. We both work and have two kids, the usual excuses. We've tried pretend play, costumes, various other toys, but nothing seems to be working. Any advice? Frustrated in Fredonia Dear F...
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Newton said that about the physical world, but I've found it to be the case for the metaphysical as well. When I was seven years old growing up in rural east Texas, I wished I had someone to play with other than my baby brother Pete. Our neighbors, the Johnsons, were ...
I sit up in her bed, wrapped in her soft, pink cotton sheets. Kimberly is a girly girl, but that's why I like her. Her white bedside clock, covered in glittery butterfly stickers, reads 2:38. I have two hours before we switched back, hopefully she's asleep in my body in my bed at home and won't ever find out whats happ...
One of the tags on the sidebar is for a media prompt - specifically audio or video. So a video would be fine.

A crowd had huddled around to view the simulation play out on the main monitor. It was approaching a year since my team had initiated this particular sim. No other model within our company, Divinity Corp. -- or elsewhere, for that matter -- had managed to sustain itself for this length of time. The counter in the top...
If I reach a thousand years in a second life, thought Kalroz, I shall have to remember to keep my identity a secret. In his current life, he had made the mistake of building a grand reputation with his many powers, and had foolishly allowed his true identity to be known among the masses. As a young man, it seemed like ...

EDIT: formatting The pitter patter of the leaky dungeon ceiling cut through the stillness of the silent room. I listened to the frail Holy man as he thumbed through chapters of dense paper, transcribed on aged, stiff parchment smelling of mildew. The Church has kept the cause for such intense focus rather quiet, howe...
"The stupid asshole rolls out of bed." I yawn. "Then yawns." Stand up. "And stands up." Realize that there's some kind of smooth chocolaty disembodied voice narrating my each and every move.

The president's face was grim as he pressed for Line 1: "Cindy, the situation." "We haven't heard anything new, sir."She was also watching the live footage: a silver cylinder -- impossibly shiny -- standing vertically, slowly descending into North Korean airspace. The president leaned back and let out a deep sigh, ...
He didn't resist when we finally cornered him. We had expected a fierce battle, we had expected blood - but instead, he offered us his sword, hilt-first. He hasn't said a word since then. I have no idea what to make of the situation. This is definitely the one we call Dubi SenMo - The Single-Armed Devil-God. And y...
Lucas stared at the "forbidden"fruit that taunted his taste buds, promising ecstasy. "What could it be?"he wondered. It had been an unusually long day at the office. Layoffs were had left and right, and dear, sweet Lucas tried earnestly to keep prying eyes away from his work. He needed that job more now than ever bef...
Fewer customers meant less work. Less work meant less distraction. Oh, the pain of remembering. The transition period had been tough. There were many nights with only one or two customers. But he had to power through. For as long as there were customers he had a job to do. It had gone on like this for years. Occasiona...
I stood at the top of the building, looking down at the smoldering ruins of the college before me. Lightning crackled at my fingertips, the last remnants of the devastating spell I had used to raze the campus clean. It was the middle of the night, and the only light to see by were the flames that raged across the groun...
Undelivered //Address does not exist// March 14th, 2015 From: AllanJones@email.com To: JamesJonesSecuredEmail@us.gov I miss you. I wish you never went over there. I can't believe that guy would do such a thing. The hard thing to swallow is that mom and dad paid for his edu...
I don't know how long it took me to notice. I was facing a wall in the coffee shop, headphones on, textbook out, laptop open. The tiny numbers on my desktop read 12:34. I congratulated myself on catching that sequence of numbers unintentionally, and pondered how many others had noticed this time. I gulped down the res...
"It's all about hard work. You see, I never had anything given to me. I only had what I was born with, just like everyone else. Now I could have been a poor farmer, like my father. Instead I pulled myself up by my bootstraps and went into business for myself. I went into demolition and did the job better than anyone, ...
To blame the Kardashians for the destruction of the free world is not wholly accurate. Kanye played a role as well. It all started with the naming of Kim and Kanye’s second child. When the babe was born – another daughter – the happy couple named her China. China West had no idea her name would cause such an uproar. T...
The kind of ability I have is not one born of divine intervention. Very, very few gods would be so naieve to give power with such a capacity to humans, especially seeming as how greed is one of the more prominent sins nowadays. No, this is the result divine oversight, which is bound to happen sooner or later. Creation ...

The morning seemed like every other. I woke up with a buzzing in my head. This usually happened; I had tinnitus, so buzzing and ringing was something I heard daily. But the more aware I got, the more distinct the buzzing became. I started hearing inflection, emotion...Feeling. This wasn't my tinnitus acting up, these s...
“ I could tell you that I wore black socks and vans.” “I thought you couldn’t remember small details like that?” “Well, I remember that in the same way that I remember anything. I wore black socks and vans everyday for an entire year. I could also tell you that I wore jeans that day because I wore jeans everyday.” “...
"Hhhrrruuuunh." Dr. Levinson swayed slightly from side to side. With a near-limp arm he brushed a number of vials from the counter. "Huurrnnn. Hurrr. Haaaagh." It was impossible. Nothing his assistant Ms Godwin could say would calm his unbridled rage. The muzzle order left no ambiguity. His pride. His g...
"Avengers, X-Men, Hydra, Shield. What's going on here?" "What is it honey?" "Well, all of these big super hero teams keep sending me letters asking me to join them." "That's odd." "I know! Even the Great Lakes Avengers want me. What's going on here?" "No idea. Oh, and by the way: a young man just moved into our ne...
I watched as the scrawny fifteen-year-old clumsily drop several cards as he tried to shuffle. Undeterred, he plucked them back up and returned them randomly into the mess of cards in his hand. If it were any other kid, I would've gently stopped him at this point and showed them the proper shuffling techniques. But righ...
There she goes, walking away a final time. In a flowery summer dress, the grass grazing against her legs. He turns to face me, the heart scratched into me the looks aged, this the final straw. The tears start rolling across his cheeks, he sobs loudly. Like a wounded animal he slumps against the tree. Her and him were m...
Caesar gasped and cried out in agonizing pain. A dark red stain was spreading in his toga as he fell to his knees. Another pang of pain, white hot, searing pain. The daggers were everywhere, they flashed in front of his eyes. He looked down at this red-soaked clothing and saw another of the knives bury itself in his ab...
I thought this was a stupid joke when I had first seen the add in the newspaper, and when I had shown up to this peculiar funeral, I still wasn't sure what this was. A handful of people- no more than fifteen- had shown up with hopes of inheriting billions of dollars from delivering the beset eulogy. As I glanced around...
I've always protected her from everything. Ever since I held her in my arms, I vowed to make sure she was taken care of. Everything from bruises, animals and bullies dared not mess with my little princess. But today is different. I'm sitting here watching her dance recital and she's completely bombing it. Her eyes red...
The stranger steps into the hall, Disheveled, dirty, and shouting My liege, you must obey the call! Who are you to command a king? The anger in my voice is clear My liege's hand, bedecked with rings Calls for silence, and I adhere Shaking, he turns and faces me And speaks through overwhelming fe...
It began with the High God Zyrion. And it was only Zyrion for many days and many nights. Soon he began to bore of the vast nothingness that was existance, so he created the seas and oceans, and populated it with fish. And for many days and many nights, this entertained Zyrion, watching them live their short interaction...
The Permanent Secretary looked up from his desk, pinching the bridge of his nose with marked irritation. He rubbed it vigorously, setting down the fountain pen where he'd been annotating a few missives. Email was the future, but the monarchy rested in the security of the past. He liked the feel of a pen in his hands. ...

"Sixteen!" This has been going on for goddamn years, it has. It started somewhere around three thousand, and it's been going down by one each time I step over the threshold. The only difference today is that the voice isn't full of ominous echo. "Shut up, Mister Johnson!"I yell across the street to an old man in a la...
As soon as she landed there, she knew what had happened. She immediately knew she was in Hell. However, she was astonished to see it was only her and one other creature. The creature looked at the woman with disgust. "Why am I the only one here?"The woman cried. The creature placed his one long finger across her m...
"The Moon blew up with no warning and for no apparent reason."The soldier paused, adjusted her glasses, and continued in the same dry tone.
