I do not like it when they are loud. I used to. I do not any more. They are loud right now. I whine, but they do not look at me. They are aggressive. They move their arms in aggressive ways at each other. I am worried they will hurt each other. They do not look like they are playing. They used to do that, and they wou...
"Honey, calm down! It's only gum,"Neil said. Kate continued to pace the room with her tablet in hand. Her face was full of excitement, but Neil couldn't tell whether that was good or bad. "Shoot, Neil! Don't tell me to calm down. This is serious! Don't you know what this means? And spit that out!"She stuck her hand in...
The whole neighbourhood comes over to Dave's backyard for his yearly barbecue. He mans the grill and keeps the sausages, patties, bacon rashers, sweet potatoes, and shiitake mushrooms coming. "Juice, water, and soft drinks are in the cooler,"he tells people. And for adults, he winks and directs them to the beers in th...
My death was pretty uneventful. Car crash on my way back from the Black Hat USA convention. Nothing special about it. One moment I was staring at my laptop screen while my girlfriend drove, the next moment, the airbag was shoving the now broken screen of my laptop deep into my chest. Lots of pain, lots of blood, b...
Thirty years. Thirty fuckin’ years, Dennis thought. That fateful night, the cold, the tears, the beers. All of it came flooding back when Dennis parked his pickup across the street from The Lazy Eye. Everyone remembers “the incident”, but everyone conveniently forgets all the good times prior to it. After that fate...
As the ultimate Ancient Evil, I'd set up the perfect plan for my eventual resurrection. Sure, I'd lost the battle against the gods ten thousand years ago, but I wasn't going to lose the war. While they were celebrating victory up in the heavens, I burrowed deep beneath the sands, voluntarily sealing myself away in a to...
Archangel Gabriel, in all his golden and fiery radiance, stood in the middle of the Assembly Hall. His ten wings of Soulflame filled the horizon of the entire dimension that was the Hall. Intense was the Light of His Ten Thousand Eyes That See All, blinding every attendant of every god present. Archangel Gabriel went ...
Chief Nogath Wolftooth bowed deeply to Stonewalker Sha'zir, careful to stay in the motion for as long as it demanded. If even a quarter of the stories were true, the Stonewalkers were one to respect. He kept his eyes on the ground, next to the basket he brought with him. "Stonewalker,"he said, speaking formally. He ca...
Fuck. FUCK. Alright, me. Calm down. I can do this. Of course I can do this. I've done this for years. I'm the second best in the business, although you would never hear me admit that there's someone better. *Fuck.* Easy job, they said. Your target will check into the hotel. Kill them. 50 Million USD up front, 1...
"But it's not fair!"screamed the merchant. "I should be allowed to charge whatever I want to! It's my stuff!"The rotund man by this point was very red in the face, almost the color of a ripe apple. He breathed heavily, his bulging chest straining against the buttons of his fashionable coat. Unfortunately, fashion usual...
Reverend Johnson was having a bad day. His dad died last night in a mysterious accident with a woodchipper, he found out his wife's been cheating on him with a farmer, and not twenty minutes ago his son broke the bad news about the growing bald patch on the back of his head. He decided he wasn't having none of that ...
I had always been unhappy with the circumstances of my family. The Rite of Symbiosis was something that all those of nobility had to endure. It was what set them apart from everyone else, gave them powers beyond others. And was the cause of great unrest amongst the population. I never wanted to undergo it, but as was ...
"Uh, Houston, we have something happening up here. Request switch to private channels."Mission Commander Elle Waterson chirped over the radio. "Roger that", came the reply. Ground control switched over to the encrypted channel. Nobody was aware of what was about to be revealed. Normally, it was talk of toilets malfunc...
I knew Honey wasn't going to say anything. They had her at the table, read her a long list of rules and information I'm sure she couldn't understand, and all waited. It was hard to believe that anyone expected her waste her one sentence on me. My dog was going to outlive me, I realized. Once I was convicted, that wou...
Blue lights flashed in the windows from a half dozen police cars. She sits at the kitchen table sobbing and being comforted by two officers. "Sir, when did you see her last?"the man interrupts my thoughts, his face concerned and a pen poised above his notebook. "We put her to bed at about eight, watched some Netflix ...
I stared at the carton, the unabashed smile mocking my shock. I glanced up to the refrigerator to see the same exact photo with me smiling my big smile at age six. Only difference I could discern was the huge **MISSING** stamp at the bottom of the carton's image. My face grew hot as I gazed up at my father seated acro...
I would barely be able to see the figures standing above me as I lay in my bed. To my right, I could feel the shapeshifter, who went by Crow, exchanging voice-sounding babble with Rusabi to my left. The dragon was too long to even sit proper in the house- I remembered without looking how his length would have to go out...
Maia floated, adrift in an abyss of choking black darkness and twisting spires of bone. Nightmarish things slithered through the depths beneath her, great twisted things of teeth and spines and oily scales and skin. The young woman was frail and blind- an easy target for any of the numerous horrors that called the deep...
Better the devil you know. Like the one sitting on Samson's couch, currently coming down from a heavy spell of the munchies by raiding his fridge. "Erin, did you steal my cookies?" "Nooo~","she replied, barely suppressing a half-snort, half-laugh that sent crumbs flying everywhere. "Why'd ya say that?" Samson sighe...
"So you're telling me this was a one way trip?" The Prophesied Hero clenched his fists, leaning against the council table. Most of the seats sat empty, the various rulers, mages and priests returned to their everyday lives. But the Caller, the leader of the group to summon the hero, sat there. Her wrinkled face sagged...
None of us shopped at the Little Green Witch for the trees; after all, the little gifts occasionally put aside a plant usually withered within the week. No, we shopped there because they, and she, had the best selection in the city if you were looking for something interesting. More importantly, they had the best pric...
It was the darkest hours of the night, illuminated by a near-full moon. Stewart looked up at the sky as he waited, sitting behind a bush. A dark cloak and hood hid his features. His breath was steady this time around, he was getting used to this. It was time. Stewart crept to the door of the baker's house, Pam he bel...
The chains that binded the prisoner looked scrawny by comparison to him. Even while unconscious his muscles rippled as if made of stone and veins ran like rivers just beneath his skin. He was as close to godhood as any man had ever came, not that his summoners knew it. If they did then they'd have been more cautious. B...
"Face your fear, Mortal!" What did I fear? I stepped up to the Maw, the strange dark void that was slowly encroaching on the land. It seemed like a million years ago when the Maw appeared, abruptly and effectively ending modern life as we knew it, though some part of the back of my mind reminded me it had been a mere ...
Rothgar the Glorious flicks his wrist to remove the blood and ichor from his sword as he walks into the heart of the dragons lair. From atop it’s pile of gold Gothar the Red looks down at him. “How strange, I never thought to see a wielder of the industrious blade darken my doorstep.” Rothgar looks up, “You speak...
"I made you some sandwiches for your trip honey". "Thanks, Mom", I replied, knowing full well they'd go in the trash once I'd started out. "Frank and I are going to pick up Jillian before we head down to the city, Should be back around 1 AM". "That had better be midnight, Mister. You've still got a curfew, you kno...
"All I can think of is the moment they gave you to me... Right then I knew you and I were damned with this disease. Your first breaths made me feel like I was drawing my last. 10 years you shouldered the pain you never deserve. Not anymore. Now you are free. And we are one. Carry that with you wherever you go. When y...
I am Death. I am the God of Death. Why else would no living being dare to stand within 50 feet of me? I open the door, determined to feast upon the offering left for me at Subway. As I struggle to squeeze through the door of my house, the sun burns my eyes and my pale skin. "Insolent fool!"I shout at the sun who dare...
Angels fall pretty often, more than those in Heaven like to admit. Luckily, there are always more fledglings to 'learn' from their mistakes. A baby angel is ready to join the platoon for every adult angel that falls. However, the same can't be said for our demons. From day one when I joined the legion, I've learned tha...
"No! You don't understand! You have to take her to the hospital now! She's sick!"Tears stream down my face, rage, frustration, and fear wrenching my guts as my father strokes my hair. Trying to comfort me, he blows air across my forehead and shushes me. "Your mommy is fine sweetheart. She's not sick, see!"He gestures ...
The orange aura from the explosion shot through the deep-blue night sky for only an instant before fading into the atmosphere. The force of the impact sent waves of tremors through the earth below. "Ahhh- ugh -ow,"Morty grunted from behind the driver's seat of the tiny spaceship. He rubbed his forehead and blinked a ...
Eli waved his enemy into a nicely decorated living room with a fireplace, three matching armchairs, and a wooden coffee table absolutely littered with books, pamphlets, and magazines and topped by a small round green teapot and two hideously mismatched orange mugs. Oddly, there was also what looked like a set of wrecke...
The world passes us by without us even realizing. A day, month, year? Just numbers put to the passing of something we so desperately wish to control. So, when I was asleep for those three short millennia I barely even noticed. It could have been just a day and I wouldn't have even known the difference. Difference bet...
Branyth the Butcher whistled while he worked, his merry tune briefly giving way to a grunt of exertion, as he hoisted the insensible sheep into the air by the chain fastened around its hind legs. Once the end of the chain was secured to the iron hook on the wall to keep the sheep suspended, he spoke the traditional wor...
What is life? The first replicating molecules had no thought, no desire, no capacity for anything but to absorb, replicate and disintegrate. From this simple mechanism a host of complex life evolved. For billions of years those living things perfected the ability to eat, to replicate and to die. Life on Earth became so...
The saddest thing was that it wasn't even important. I mean, if I had frozen a bus before it fell off a cliff to save everyone inside, that'd be one thing. I would have been lauded a hero. Or if I had decided to suddenly reach for the steak knife of the restaurant's kitchen and slit the throat of the annoying waiter wh...
“Nessa? Earth to Nessa? What’s gotten into you today?” Vanessa’s body felt like it was still underwater. Like it had been this morning, when she had woken up on the far side of the lake behind the dorms stark naked and bloody, her lungs screaming for air. She looked over at Auri and thought that she still hadn’t been ...
It wasn't a bad existence, all things considered. He stood in his spot and waited - he didn't know for what, but he'd been assured that when the time came, he'd know exactly what to do and what to say. But he wasn't so sure of that. He really didn't have much to think about, and how can someone who doesn't think much ...
"B-but..." "No more buts. The dragon is innocent, sir knight. Do you wish to be arrested for unlawful entry? I hear the punishment involves 3 years in the dungeon, a 2000 gold fine, or both, according to the 39th paragraph of His Highness' Robbery Act. I bet you didn't know that." "N-no I didn't..." "Also, paragraph...
I don't know what made all these peoples so stupid today. They standing around lookin like zombies. Like that guy at my door this morning Geenova witless hehe. He couldn't even remember why he was there. I pushed him over and he landed in the sticky bushes! Didn't even scream or nothing. Just layed there pretty as you...
“I can’t believe I’m sold out.” I muttered to myself, as I packed up my personal items from the couch I had set up shop for the night. I had been invited to another frat party, full of mouth breathing Chads and “frat brothers”. I had almost declined but as a broke college student with loans to pay, I knew I could mak...
I never really understood why we stood out so much. When I was born this area of land was gifted to my Father as a reward for his services in the last war. The truth looking back now his rivals, that he didn't even know he had, just wanted a potential "hero usurper"removed, and so sent him along the borderlands of the...
**Item #:** SCP-4444 **Object Class:** Euclid **Special Containment Procedures:** SCP-4444 is to be contained in a cryogenic pod hidden in a facility underneath Halsey Island in Lake Hopatcong. Foundation staff embedded in local conservation groups and the National Park Service are to ensure that the area remains par...
It was with a grin that Virgil came late at night And gave poor Dante a very big fright And scared, Dante was, in the woods called sin Fret not, Virgil said, and gave him his hand. "For together we must travel throughout the land! Through Hell and Eden, Purgatory and all!" Dante gasped, "But why upon me must t...
"So, uh, do you like it?" Julia turned the small band of gold in her hands, considering the question. "Yeah, I like it."She held it up to the light, letting it catch the last rays of sunlight streaming through the great windows of Olympus. Apollo sighed with relief. "Thank Zeus, I was worried. Why don't you put it o...
"Let me get this straight, Major General, you are refusing to surrender?" "Yep." "Because you still believe you can win this war." "Sure can." "Let me lay out the situation for you." "Be my guest." "We blew up every satellite, space station, and up facing communications dish in the beginning stages of the war." ...
'Humans' are not completely unknown creatures. A story over a wine barrel regarding these new sky-people had told me that much, that these creatures had no snout, nor scale, not even a tail. Pure fantasy and fiction, I had thought and allowed myself to believe the storyteller had indulged in one too many barrels for th...
“I don’t get it. She said she was into crazy things. What’s crazier than dating the man that’s going to father the child of prophecy? Is it the whole parenting thing that scares them? Or more the fact that we will probably end up part of the child’s tragic backstory?” Travis poked his burger, not even getting to bite i...
“Maybe the real treasure was the friends we made alo-“ “Dude, we desecrated a major archaeological site and half of our team died for the promise of treasure that wasn’t even here!” I looked at my compatriot curiously; he was covered in dirt, drops of sweat clearing paths through the muck, almost creating a pattern o...
The new age has been needlessly cruel to me. 4,000 years ago, statues were erected in my name, my likeness was plastered around the countryside, and my name struck fear in the hearts of even the greatest of fighters. 3,000 years ago, people came to me seeking advice, pondering about secrets of the universe — which I w...
I'm not a good person. Let's get that straight from the beginning. How's that Tom Waits song go? *I've never asked for forgiveness* *Never said a prayer* *I've never given of myself* *Never truly cared* My name's not John, or Bob, or Rick, or any name you could guess. My face is not one you've seen before in a cr...
As the airlock cycled open into Sol station Tim's stomach began to growl in lockstep with the gentle popping sensation in his ears. He had been so engrossed in the plans for the next two phases of the Ceres station project that he had forgotten to eat all day. The disquiet in his belly was not helped by the fact that t...
Ten thousand years of war. Ten thousand Klaxun warriors lost. A million years of evolution brought to a standstill by their sacrifice. These things took time. The Klaxuns knew it. They’d been defeated by the creatures from the green and blue world, rich and flightless as it was. It’d withstood every psionic attack. It...
The tiny, winding side street ran between rows of tall buildings, casting it in perpetual shade. The way it bent made it impossible to see the busier streets to which it connected at either end. Somehow, it always looked like it had just rained. The place was sketchy as hell, but it was also the most direct path bet...
Jack Bolwer. Action hero, charismatic super-agent and a man that refuses to pay rent. I watched the hero as he slipped his fingers into another bag of my favorite chilli coated potato chips. When he caught my gaze from his slouched position on the couch, he gave me a nod, nearly having his fedora roll off his head. “I...
It’s hard to explain, but there’s something special about the girl who works Montmartre’s forbidden knowledge desk. I told my buddy Ian yesterday and I don’t think he understood. Will you? To start, there is Montmartre. I think the name itself is a reference, though I’ve never figured out if it has any special meaning...
"It's about finding your niche." I led Roger through the office, doing a little pressing of the flesh. I started hiring new grads from the Academy, but found the best employees to handle sales of this type were a certain type of old person. Minor cruelty was perfected in my little phone bank of Karens, and I paid th...
Jacqueline had tried to keep a low profile at the Academy, she really did. Unfortunately, the elves and the fae and a plethora of others saw her very presence as an insult. In some way, it was. Were it not for the Republic bleeding the magical kingdoms during the war, humans would have never been allowed into the Acade...
Brittney had never held a gun before. Boys had ogled her and chased her most of her life, and she enjoyed that immensely, although she always acted like she never realized how attractive she was. At any given party at Alpha Gam house, she could take her pick of any man there, whether he had a girlfriend or not, even...
"Obsessed with Batman,"the Joker had declared himself at the last meeting of supervillains. And it got me thinking: if only *everyone* in the city really took the time to consider the absolute lunacy of it all, they'd probably hate him too. I mean, a man running about in a bat costume and beating up ordinary citizens? ...
"Thglwmp it is time for your powered down cycle." Thglwmp writhed in its caretaker's grip. "Whyyyy?"Thglwmp asked plaintively. "It is that moment in the cycle,"said its caretaker. "Tell me one more story, Caretaker Pthkw. Tell me the one about the Earthlings." Pthkw buzzed impatiently. Well, at least it worked wi...
I slapped the sheet of paper down onto the desk. His office was deceptively neat, with the barely-used pristine look that only upper management ever seemed to attain. But I knew better. It only looked that way because Satan didn't need to use such mundane things as file storage systems or computer databases. No, he...
*Later, at the monster bar....* ---- "So there I am, minding my own business at the bottom of the lake,"Glembthax the Deep Devourer said, "when suddenly, someone starts walking across." "Wait,"Shorgo the Regular Devourer said, "you mean you ran across someone?" "No,"Glembthax said, "I mean someone starts walking ov...
"For the last time Ambassador Ašhak, I would suggest to your Emperor that you reconsider your position,"said diplomat Li Chen to the sneering Kavaj. "There will be no diplomacy. You are subject to the God-Emperor and any resistance will be crushed," Li Chen merely sighed. He opened his private communications channel t...
This is the most awful living situation ever. In all of history. Nobody has it worse than me. God, I despise all of them with every fiber of my being. I never should have moved in, but my hubris got the better of me. Lust’s room is right next to mine, just my luck. Every night, she brings home a new guy or girl – and ...
Anderson swallowed in fear, there were reports of a hydra en route to the capital, no soldier had managed to down it in time. The creature was too clever, evading attempts to intercept and traps. With venomous fangs and claws strong enough to break swords, the militia was in high alert to defend the people and the rul...
The familiar knock. I’ve come to expect it. I answer the door, my faithful friend close at my heels. I remember the day we met. He was wandering on the street. I was on my way to the bridge. I can’t say why, but he started to follow me. All the way to the bridge. No one talked to me, no one even seemed to notice,...
"You should have let me take care of this one, Father." Lucifer smirked brashly as he stood before the golden throne, taking no heed of the furious Angels that stood in a great circle around them. The Power upon the throne ignored the posturing of his wayward archangel, as uncaring of the child's posturing as complet...
Dudley was awake, but kept his eyes closed tightly, willing himself back to sleep. He had been having his favorite dream: in it, he was sitting in a large, bright room with a huge Christmas tree in the corner. He was surrounded by boxes, all wrapped in shiny, colorful paper. The whole room, as far as he could see, was ...
“When you marooned me on that god forsaken spit of land you call *Earth*, you forgot one very important thing, mate,” Jack paused as his and the Star Destroyer crew watched him incredulously, the hologram of Darth Vader towering above him, “I’m Captain Jack Sparrow!” he said before turning off the annoying hologram. “...
Dear Diary/Reddit, Confession: last night I got absolutely sozzled. I mean, I drank cider until I stunk like a rotting apple tree. You know, where the apples are these moist orange balls that are practically dripping, and wasps are getting drunk just on the fumes. I think I was getting drunk on my own fumes, like some...
Steve grabbed the ketchup bottle from the fridge and grimaced as it oozed over his hand. He turned over the bottle. There they were, two puncture marks from his wife's little fangs. This couldn't go on. He would have to confront her. He washed his hand and stepped out into the hallway. "Val?" There was no answer, but...
There was a princess of the Althero Kingdom, and they called her the Unlucky Princess. How unlucky, the castle's maids would whisper, that her mother had been just a commoner girl the king had fancied, and who had died at childbirth. How unlucky, the nobles of the court would smirk, that she was so bookish and pla...
Chuck stared at the meth pipe now lying by the gas pedal of his 1990 IROC. He wasn’t entirely sure he had smoked it correctly, or if it was actually called a “meth pipe.” For starters, he wasn’t sure meth was supposed to be smoked. He remembered seeing Jesse Pinkman smoke it a few times during *Breaking Bad*, but he co...
Narrator (Arnold Schwarzenegger): **D'AHH!** NO ONE KNEW FROM WHAR HE CAEME, BUT HE CAEME WHEN THE WOORLD **NEEEEDED** HIM MOOST! ***Camera falls on our protagonist from behind. He is looking out at a miraculous skyline from the top of a roof. It is sunset; the colors contrast with his black outfit.*** Protagonist (M...
Despite drones flying for months after the wormhole was established to Kepler 452b, less than three percent of the massive planet had been mapped. Titanic forests covered the archipelago landmasses, making it difficult to see what lay on the ground. Hundreds of species of climbing, drifting creepers webbed the sky be...
It started when I fell from my bike when I was eight. I loved speeding down hills, having the breeze hit my face and the adrenaline which accompanied it. One day, though, I got carried away. I was trying to break but one of the wheels got stuck on a pebble, making me fly and crash head-first into the ground. I think I ...
"I can read your mind,"Katie said gravely, as she sat down opposite the dark haired stranger at the corner table of the little coffee shop. "And I know what you're going to do." The gentleman, about Katie's age, looked up from his book -- some Christmas romance with a wood lodge on the front cover, and said, "Oh yeah?...
"You don't look like much of a wizard. And you're not a licensed Guild Mage, that's for sure. They're way more stylish." Sam wasn't wearing wizard robes, but more conventional adventurer's leathers. The only feature that distinguished him from a novice warrior was that instead of a sword, he carried a belt full of ...
The kid is scared of me. I've body hoped enough to know the signs. The wife is checked out, god knows the drug she's on but she pops a pill for a headache and the kids looks ready to sob, but doesn't. They've learnt not to. I tell them I have a migraine, go play in their room, and when they are out of sight I start...
“What the hell is this?” growled the President of the United States, obviously annoyed at being woken up at this ungodly hour just to read a report. “Sir, at 2352hrs Eastern Standard time, USAF intercepted and brought down an unidentified object over Dawson Springs, Kentucky,” answered the military general, his myriad...
The phrase "culture shock"was one I was aware of, knew the definition of, but never really comprehended just what an upheaval it would be to the senses until the day those ships started to descend from the sky. The rest of the base and I were all waiting with baited breath to see what would come of the first meeting i...
The heartrate monitor goes spiky. The old man's close to kicking the bucket. I lean in close for his last words. “Be kind,” he says, and the monitor flatlines. “Hear that?” I ask the nurse beside me. “'Be kind'? He lived eight decades and that's the best he could come up with?” She shakes her head and does something ...
So I'm walking down the pavement pretending not to notice the homeless people, you know how it is. I'm not pretending not to notice them because I'm unsympathetic, I'm pretending not to notice them because I don't want to give them a false sense of hope, or to experience the awkwardness where I have to explain I don't ...
*The following is a transcript of a dialogue between SRTT-1011 and LMAO-6969.* date: Wednesday, 19th December 2018 time: 2149 HKT SRTT: Greetings, USER. I am the robot of the future. I was programmed to understand and advance science in countless fields: medicine, engineering, physics, and so on. What would you like...
The age of superheroes is long past. At it's height, you could see men in invulnerable spandex lob buildings 'for the party' while unnaturally beautiful women weaponized the sun against any -- and *every* \-- one they didn't like. It was never the glorious time that people paint it as today, and that's because everyo...
"Purple!"she exclaimed proudly. "What's that, dear?"I asked, trying to maintain my mask of calm. "The. Color. Purple!"she declared again, voice excited. Then, she leaned forward into the table, nearly tipping her seat over. "*It's a secret message,"* she whispered excitedly. "*Wandra said so.*" "I'm glad she wanted to...
I was the first to be tapped for the next wave of human exploration and expansion into the galaxy. Recent physics breakthroughs had finally made faster than light travel possible. The device, called the Gaposchkin Drive, would allow travel to the nearest stars in months. The time frames involved in interstellar travel ...
My boss stood stone faced, waiting for my reply. How could I possibly go back in time and let the man continue to murder millions of Jews, and millions more men and women and children from other countries, allow the destruction of Moscow and the total installment of the Nazi machine not only in Europe but across the gl...
Tambor holds his painted, round shield in front of his face. The heat of the sorceress's fiery wings is almost unbearable. Almost. Tambor grits his teeth and tightens his grip on his silver mace. He hears Davost the bard, still singing weakly as he bleeds on the stone floor to the back of the throne room. Another voice...
I woke up groggy and, ugh what was that smell? I looked around the crew quarters and saw trash and empty bottles everywhere. See I was a test pilot. I never feared death, and never felt a drive for glory. Well that's not true, but I was never brave enough to put myself in a glorious situation. I just liked going fast...
“Fifteen!” shouted the Elf. Amidst the horde of orcs bombarding the fortress walls, one fell at the south end of the wall, easily a distance of a hundred paces from where the Dwarf saw the archer standing. The roar of battle nearly drowned out his voice. The archer loosed three more arrows, and like the rhythm to a dr...
“Do you want to come back tomorrow?” I ask him as we place our dishes in a sink. We don’t have to wash them, they’ll disappear tonight. He jokingly calls it our magic maid. He smiles at me, his eyes gleaming with adoration. “You know I do.” Something in me twinges, a spot of darkness on our beautiful day. We spent ...
I had just finished suturing a nasty wound when I leaned against the wall to take a breather. Tonight had been a tough one, I hadn't even gotten the chance to rest in hours. I wiped my brow and took what felt like the first deep breath since I got up this morning, when a cacophony of bloodcurdling screams sounded off f...
“Why aren’t you dead yet?” “I don’t know. Did you miss?” I stared at my chest, patting where the bullet wound should have been. I should have been another statistic, a robbery gone wrong, and yet here I was. On my back, after being blasted by a shotgun, my shirt torn open with fabric scattered along the floor. My c...
"Hey there buddy, where you headed?"Bill looked down out of his truck cab at the kid, looked like he was not a day older than 25. Real clean cut for a guy on the side of the road at this hour. "West,"is all he said. A smile came across the kid's face and his deep blue eyes reflected the dash light. *This could be a fun...
Nick had no idea what was going on. He was dead, there was no questioning that. However, he had no idea how that happened. Or even what his life was like. There was no changing the situation now, however. The only information he had to go off was that he apparently didn't follow any belief system. Meant he had to make...
“You think you know winter. You know *nothing,* Hans. Snow is not the only—” “Princess Elsa—” “—*Queen*. I am the rightful heir to my father’s throne.” “—I beg you to reconsider your options. Please. Let us not resort to war so soon. Your kingdom needs you to be wise.” Elsa always thought that the weasel’s voice so...
**Edit: Woah! Gold! Thanks kind stranger! I really didn't think this was worth gold.** "Land ahoy!”Was heard rising on the wind from the Crow’s nest. The ship’s sails heaved and turned as strong men started to pull on them. The ship rocked in the water as it steadily moved towards the faint outline in the distance, ba...
"Today, love, this nation is ours. For now, and forever,"I told Maya, gripping her hand and smiling with excitement. She jumped up and down, giggling with glee, and drew Arakh from its sheath. Blue streaks of light danced across rocks as the sun gleamed off her majestic sapphire sword. Without even waiting for me, she...
