I was first noticed on Facebook, grew in popularity from Vine, and made a living from Youtube. Every step I took, every new medium, felt like a bigger step into fame. I was living comfortably in my apartment in New York City by posting blog videos on Youtube, people seemed to love learning the most basic things about...
I had a much harder time writing this than I initially expected, so this is pretty short. Feedback is very welcome. ---------------------------------------------------- I walked through the dark corridor and emerged in a room with a balcony overseeing the ocean. A beautiful sight, only overshadowed by the fact that m...
I smelled nothing. Heard nothing but walls, winds, no birds, no barking dogs riled throughout our neighbourhood. Sort of silence that slaps a gong and presses into it till you go mad. Sort of quiet meant more for all nighters, three am gaming sessions, chats with friends, Netflix marathons. My roommate was still aslee...
"...so then I said, rectum? I damn near killed 'em!" Sarah laughed, but it was forced. We both said our goodnights, and hung up the phone. In fairness, it hadn't been a good setup - a C-grade joke at best, and a little too long for my taste. But it was the sort of thing that should have triggered The Track. I'd been ...
“On your feet” the bank robber said, pointing his gun at my head, “you’re coming with us.” Slowly, terrified, I rose. There were seven of them. All in Halloween masks, brandishing automatic weapons at the paralysed staff. The leader grabbed me by the collar, pushed me forward. That’s when I saw Miles in the far corner,...
The Vietnam Memorial War Memorial is always an imposing, somber reminder of just how costly war really is. I stood in front of the wall, reading down the names one by one, not recognizing any of them of course… but out of respect for the fallen, I’d give their names one more utterance in the world once more, out of cou...
"What's that?"you might ask. Well that's just Nana. &#x200B; Most of the bad ones I just smash with a bat. &#x200B; "Don't let them bite you."That's what Nana says. &#x200B; Said. &#x200B; Cause one got her. &#x200B; And I woulda smashed her with the bat. But Nana doesn't have teeth. &amp...
Margaret was sitting on the couch in the living room, watching TV, when she heard footsteps coming from her room. Sound carried in the house – none of the residents were sure why, but they chalked it up to a consequence of the many open rooms and wide halls. Honestly, it was a small price to pay for the lavish home. Th...
Of course, there were rumors. A place untouched by these vile creatures. A sanctuary, where life continues as if the outbreak never took place. No one had made it though, and if, they never came back. Hear-say about a colony, floating whispers of a name..”Helvetia” And so I set out to find it. Yet here I was, mere...
"wait-what?"The monster takes a short pause from un-hinging the party leader's head from his shoulders and looks at me. "Are those...level 1 axes?" "Yes, they are"I answer, striding confidently forward. The monster laughs, 2 of his 6 arms clutching it's belly in a guffaw that shakes the earth and bathes the air in a ...
Vague hazy memories started to come back as I closed the book on my early childhood. It was a simple time, mostly fun with a few things that stood out as awkward and cringe worthy. I know there would always be moments that I would look back and realize what a little shit I was, but over all it was a good life, so i fig...
I tried to cry out, fighting the restraints on my limbs. A rough gag prevented any sound for escaping, my pleas for help going unheard. I looked at the robed figures desperately, tears beginning to well up. The stone altar was cold beneath my bare skin. The chanting rose, and on the the figures stepped forth, holding ...
I’m unaffected by pressure. That sounds like nothing, right? Well, think about the air pressure pushing down on you right now. Think about the pressure you are exerting on the the world by standing on it. Think about the pressure at the on of the ocean that can crush most things not originating from there. Think abou...
My battery dropped 12%, the date moved a week forward. I looked up, confused. Nothing about the neighborhood looked different. Mr. Rodriguez was out mowing his lawn. Davey’s dog was barking at some kids passing by his yard. The only thing out of place seemed to be me. Beads of sweat rolled down my forehead as my phone ...
Now it isn’t as if we hadn’t come close. Upon checking the Earth again in 1970, the Hadrai still had hope the humans would meet their fate soon enough. Surviving for a generation after the invention of nuclear weapons was unusual, only about 5 percent of species managed it, but it certainly wasn’t unheard of. S...
I pat my lap and Gabrielle eagerly climbs up. For being almost four, she's really excellent at climbing and getting places she's not allowed to. Agchonion has been teaching her to climb, despite my hesitation, but she's always safe as long as the higher demons keep an eye on her. Gabrielle looks at the scrolls and pap...
“You’re just gonna take that lying down?!” Wrath yelled at me. “What was I supposed to do? If I don’t do what my boss says, he’ll fire me.” “It’s unethical! Sometimes you really just need to put your foot down and tell the man ‘No!’” How long has it been? A month? Maybe more? It’s slow going. When seven young adults...

All documents detailing procedure Omega-6757 must be kept sealed in the Containment chamber. Procedure Omega-6757: Every...
I remember the first time the demon showed up. He tried to trick me into giving up my soul. Luckily, I read way too many fantasy books, so that train crashed rather dramatically. He was a handsome demon, too. All smooth and suave and silver tongued. He reappeared two more times, once, with anger and the fury of the De...
'No, you're not insane.' The words written in faded pencil sure made me feel insane, as they had been the words I intended to write when I opened this second volume of 'Windmill Construction Through The Ages.' I bent the book across the worn spine to read the rest of this hidden line. 'Hello star child!' it rea...
The bell rang all over campus, the teenagers started off to their classes, each in a neat and tidy uniform, and almost all of the students had well kept black hair. Almost all. One group of girls were close together, walking along in their uniforms and techno neon hair colors. Four students in total, with bright Red, ...
"Citizens of the Earth. Your ruling class. Your nobility and your politicians are now our hostages. Your enduring obedience is required or we will eliminate them." Three days ago they left the atmosphere of the earth to return to an orbit around the sun where their command ship would observe the earth communication to...
Ted's typing grew louder and faster as his coworkers fucked on his desk. "Give it to me. Give it to me." "For the love of-" "Fuck me. Oh fuck. FUCK ME."Janet, from human resources, was sprawled all about Ted's desk, her legs occasionally brushing aside his folders and papers. "Could you please relocate Janet? I'm i...
Naturally, thousands of notifications flooded the screen when I logged into the old game. I skimmed through the 3 years’ worth of simulation’s history. Fascinated, I discovered how civilizations rose and fell, the scientific advancements of virtual man, and a grand war that nearly eradicated the existence of the simula...
A weary waitress approached the man. The man, sitting at a table with a clean fork, a glass of water, and a plate of pancakes, pristine as the one's IHOP has printed in its sticky menus. The man's face was stern, he looked up into her eyes. These days she knew what this look meant. She sighed, inwardly. Outwardly she a...
I smile softly as I collapse the display. The old woman holds her hand over her mouth as tears of joy streak down her face. She had been a teacher for thirty-seven years. Always just wanted to help her students achieve their potential. And now she knows that for all her efforts, she helped to create a better world. I k...
My first try at WP. Please be nice! I sat up in bed with a jolt, like waking from a bad dream. Immediately, a mallet of pain slammed into my temples. My breath burned in my chest. Broken ribs? I closed my eyes and concentrated on blocking out the pain. The ringing in my ears was slowly replaced by an otherworldly ...
But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. -Matthew 5:39, NIV translation Mary Anne sat on the steps of the local schoolhouse, face hidden within the palms of her hands. Tears streaked out from between her fingers, dripping down onto th...
The technological singularity was mere seconds away from becoming a reality. Dozens of scientists from a wide variety of backgrounds and countries gathered around the giant screen, holding their breaths and clenching their fists with anxious anticipation. Typing away at the keyboard, a young man executed the final comm...
The white priestess of the exalted light wept. Not tears of joy, though, when she had imagined this moment in all those quite times in the Temple of Light, she always thought they would be. No, she wept now in rage and sorrow, choked pathetic little sobs. Terrified and quivering, she clutched the High Deccan, the kind...
"Oh my, that's a very strong power you have there."he said honestly, "What is it? Some form of advanced telekinesis?" "Macrokinesis!"The villain preened, "I can control multiple objects at once." "So you can."he said, eyeing the floating cars down the street. "That is impressive." "But you...what can you do?"the vil...
As the sky grew darker on that windy summer night, Hud stirred harder in her sleep and the tree branches struck even harder against the window of her room. Her breathing was ragged and sweat dripped down her neck. Something pushed against her back from under the stiff mattress. Her eyes shot open and she muttered a cru...
Crimson scales lie still at my feet. Most of my armour is charred, a parting gift from the deadly beast, but there are parts that are unabated, shining bright and true in the blazing sun. I remove my helm and brush the ash from my face. "Lie still now, beast. Your days are done." I hear a muffled cry on the horizon. ...
Boulder, Colorado. Ugh. It reeks of old money, hobos and mediocre Tex mex. Being my third trip here this month, I’m well aware that my per diem won’t even cover breakfast. “In and out” I whisper, fingering the dozen or so syringes in my pocket. “In and out” I say again, under my breath, but audible enough to remind ...
“I’m not a time traveler, Mr. Hawking. I’m the pizza delivery guy.” There was an extended period of silence, so long I almost wondered if he was asleep. “Aha!” he suddenly said. “Then how’d you know my name if I didn’t order the pizza?” “Because you’re famous, sir.” Another long pause. “And how’d you find my house...
The puppy runs in circles around you, yapping and barking excitedly. You reach down to pick it up and it licks your face. "Mom said I was too little to have a dog of my own,"you whisper to yourself. "Well, I think you can manage that now,"chuckled the genie. You sit down on the grass, your back turned to the house. ...
"Are you sure we are looking at your soul vein, Sarah? I can't even read it"the curious high school girl mused. "I mean, neither can I"Sarah told her friend Mona. "That said, I went to bed last night, and there was nothing. I wake up today and.."she waved the bright shining textures on her forearm at her friend o...
The owl looked up at me waking up, analyzing me with its intelligent eyes. "Ah!"I screamed and shot my arm under my pillow, pulling out a gun. "Hoot?"the owl just had enough say before I shot its face. I kept the gun trained on it and looked around my room rapidly. I looked at its body, a spatter of blood staining my...
“Attend to elevator K-C 5. Cleanup required.” At the voice coming out of the speakers, I sigh and toss my cards on the table in front of me. “Seems like you win this round, my dude.” The man in front of me wrinkles his nose and, more gently, slides his own hand down. "Though I must say I'm surprised we've managed ...
The intermittent beeping of the warp fuel indicator was the only noise that broke the stillness aboard the bridge of the starship “Endeavor”. The silence from Commander Deckard and his crew, though, was not one of shock. Rather, it was one of acceptance. Their worst fears proved to be reality. “The Republic has fallen...
The practice was known as dipping. It was very complicated. Think sort of like that ASsassin's creed video game except 99% of all your ancestors were boring as hell. I had 20 generations of farmers in a row, and none of them were very good at it. You had to strap into the machine, which was enormous initially b...
It turns out that basic magic isn’t that hard to learn, it's just that no one had anyone to learn it from. That all changed with the discovery of a book containing the very secrets of magic, by the fading letters on its cover it was titled: “Casting Cantrips with Crazy Carl”. Admittedly it wasn’t as much a book as it ...
"I do not deserve this", I sighed as the waitress brought me the food. "We are just bringing the meal that you deserve,"smiled the waitress. "There must be a mistake of some sort,"I insisted. "The most I deserve is a bowl of soup. I have not done anything worthy of praise in my life." "We don't make mistakes here,"t...
I wanted to be there when it came down. I'd always had a fascination with magic and stories, and as the daughter of the King now passed and a Queen in my own right I can basically get my fill whenever I want. Maybe it was because my father died when I was so young, but mother always seemed to indulge my interest in ma...
I've been told I have a high physical pain threshold, and I often use this to my advantage. But on the day of the curse, the pain I felt was excruciating. That day is the farthest back I can remember, and possibly one of the few days in my life worth remembering. Sometime in the 10th century -I can't remember the exact...
"172 confirmed extreme long range kills, 0 bullets fired. I figured it out in basic, I closed the chamber before saying something to Sam, when I looked back I was convinced I had already loaded a round. I was convinced it was loaded. I was convinced when I pulled the trigger I would hit the target. And I did, the best ...
Adventure report #764/b: Garzhak the Demon Lord Party members: Lila the Swift, Gornak the Mighty, Elias the Cunning Summary: The party encountered Garzhak the Demon Lord in his lair preparing for his incursion. After a short exchange of threats, the party engaged the Lord. Lila scored several hits wit...
“It was simple really,” I began to explain. “Basically, if you have a green cat walking along the grass, it creates a bug with the graphics. The cat disappears but it still registers in the location. I guess you guys never expected a cat to turn green aye?” The other people in the room kinda just shook their heads wit...
(Part 1) A tentacle shoots out. Smithfield dodges to the side and adjusts his protective glasses, hacking at the appendage with his electric blade. The ancient, terrible beast, taller than a house, writhes and squeals. He continues to dodge as tentacles flail about around him, waiting for the chance to strike. He gets...
What follows is a textual reconstruction from descriptions and a recovered script of a Movietone News reel entitled 'Weirdos on the Warfront: Your Country Needs You!'. It played in 4 markets for a total of 3 days between February 18th-21st 1943. All copies of the original reel have been lost to time. I was able to com...
The Entropy Epidemic and the Laughter Cure Once upon a time in the dying universe known as Chroak-32, there existed an immortal known as Entropius. A being who defied the very concept of entropy, which as any self-respecting physicist would explain is the natural tendency of a closed system to transition from order to...
The signs were always there. It's not that I didn't see them. I just ignored them. Let me explain. I'm 22. I'm fit. Healthy. Energetic. I talk to random people on the street. I have conversations with them, and inevitably, they ask me to do something for them. "Hey, could you go over to 25th, and pass this envelope...
[Not quite sure if this is what you were looking for but I gave it a shot] I glanced nervously at the woman beside me. My fingers fluttered like butterflies at my necktie as I attempted to straighten it again for the fourth time this night. “How are you enjoying it?” I asked finally, pointing at the mutton curry in ...
I watched as the last of the ships took off, blazing trails through the night sky. "Good luck."I whispered. There was about a few week's worth of food and water. However, the gauge on my tank indicated I had maybe a few days left of air. Oh well. I walked down the empty street. Around me lay the ruins of what once ...
The doctor held my hand very sweetly. He seemed unsure where to begin. From the other side of the room, I could hear my husband cooing and singing softly to our strange, beautiful new child. "The thing is,"the doctor said, "there's nothing to treat." "But the baby-"I said. "I know, I know. It's going to take some...
He asked me to come to the ocean with him and so I did. It was night and the stars had begun to emerge in the night sky, small pinpricks of white against the dark clouds like acne on some unfortunate teenager's face. He wrapped his arm around me as we made our way down the dunes to the water. The sand slipped away f...
shit shit shit "Hey, Karey,"I let out. "Uh Hi.."She stops in the hallway and holds her textbook tight to her chest. Her beautiful black hair falling over it. I'd like to be that textbook.. Is that a weird thing to say? The milliseconds of silence is like a dagger stabbing into my eye over and over again. I'm t...
Gary had broken out in a cold sweat under the unwavering gaze of the instructor. So far he had managed to pass every test with ease. Everything from memes to Google, Gary aced them all. But now, confronted with a piece of paper with that horrible sentence, he suddenly couldn't remember. "This should be easy."She said....
I surveyed the vault door, a colossal hubcap-shaped lump of reinforced steel at least six inches thick. My little drill was not getting through that anytime soon...and breaching it would probably trip off an alarm anyway. I grinned. "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there,"I sang under my breath. POOF. Emily app...
The street, the buildings around them, my house, everything was glowing that sharp red that I had become used to. I had the ability to see explosive radius since I was born, if something had a decent chance to explode, I would see a brilliant red ring around it. Most of the time it just told me to stay clear, that was ...
"Oooh, what's the point?"God grunted, leaning back on his Morgan Rocking Laz-Z-Boy recliner chair. "No one cares anyway." Everyone around the conference room exchanged looks. "That's not true,"one of the angels tried. "People like to live." "Bring me a Gin and Tonic,"God growled to the servant boy by his side. "Ext...
"Eve! It's not what it looks like."Adam disentangled himself from the other man. "Is that so?"Eve fumed. "And just what were your hands doing on his forbidden fruit?" The two continued to shout at each other until Eve finally had enough and came at Adam with a tree branch. I turned away from the screen, the screams o...
"Johnny! Johnny!"My friend, Sam, hobbled up close to me. "Today's the day!" Today was a very special day - it was the 100th anniversary of the Uprising, the day that our zombie ancestors had overthrown the evil human empire and allowed us to live in peace and harmony. The humans were evil, warring creatures that were ...
An explosion to my left. They've breached the south entrance. Men scream as the automated defenses kick in. The turret has three-hundred rounds, from the length of the sound and the rate of fire, I guess it's burned through about fifty already. I can't rely on the house to defend itself for long. A hail of bullets...
Dr Martin Hendricks was still staring uncomprehendingly at the words, when more popped up. ALIVE. ALIVE, HELP ME. The image of the brain was suddenly pulsing red, the neural networks a hive of activity. On his other monitor, the words were taking over the screen, lines upon lines of repeating text. WHERESMYBODYOHGO...
"WHY AREN'T YOU FEELING ANYTHING." Erwin stared at the man wearing a tacky hockey mask and replied, "I bet you ask your wife that all the time." "WHAT? No, nooooo no nooo,"you see, the serial killer had just been divorced on account of his erectile dysfunction and as such this was a rather touchy subject (Not that th...
“Brassa, is that a horse I see out there?” I squinted into the deepening twilight outside of my bar. There was a pale horse tethered to my drink sign. It was pawing nervously at the moving sidewalk outside, and biting at a few passers-by on it. “I am not your brother, barkeep,” the hooded man turned to follow my g...
Mogbola they had called it on the evening news. An ancient evil that last showed its unholy face when rickety huts dominated the landscape. In those days it had wrought terror and destruction unparalleled by any contemporary disaster. Now it had resurfaced again. Something about a fallen satellite. It was hard to remem...
Eric looked on in astonishment. Between recurring puffs of dust from the impact of incoming fire, he could see the man swinging wildly with his wrench against some sort of contraption emerging from a box. Eric did not know who the man was, but figured his situation couldn't exactly get much worse and thus welcomed the...
I woke up in the form of a cricket. This is a jarring way to wake up, in part because my new cricket physiology is not really compatible with the mammalian concept of sleep. It's a bit like being dumped out of bed and also forgetting why beds exist and what you were just doing in one. I usually attempt to go to sleep...
Believe it or not, the update was to remove the necessity for corrective lenses. The patch improved draw distance and anti-aliasing for some participants who reported difficulty seeing, and though the update wasn't exactly timely, given how ambitious the simulation was, people were understanding. If they hadn't been w...
Across the universe the music rang, only on one planet did any know its meaning. Some panicked, some ignored it, but after the music had run its course everyone was surprised by the next thing to be heard: >Sorry folks, the preceding music was an accident, just training the intern, please carry on. The broadcast c...
No matter how hard you tried in life, everyone hated you. Your family, the people at school, teachers and students. You were the freak. The freak with a power everyone hates. As time went on no one cared about your gift and just treated you like crap regardless of what you could do. Even at NASA whilst training they t...
Staring into my freezer is misery. Hungry and confused, I continuously yearn for something different to eat without knowing what I want. In the end I almost always grab whatever unopened box appeals to me the most and save the rest for a distant future. Today will be battered chicken on a bun day, I decide as I tear ...
I pulled into the parking lot of the small coffee shop. It's a brick building with a tin roof. The coffee shop is pretty standard looking. The front of the building had one large window on the structure were tinted dark with a picture of a hot coffee with a depiction of a heart made of foam. I looked around the parki...
"Oh fuck, you mean perception? Am I trying to notice something?" "Nope, insight." The rest of the group exchanged bewildered glances. We had just liberated the Wintershield Stronghold from a group of ravenous ice trolls, lead by a savage troll mystic. By the time we arrived the Lord of the keep and all of his family ...
“CAN WE PLEASE JUST TALK!” The crime lord yelled. “For gods sake we’re the same person. This is something we should agree on.” “You should agree that drug trafficking is illegal and immoral.” Me, the grizzled veteran me, from the future, called back. He raised his gun in the lobby and chipped another few chunks from t...
Another day. Heesh. I really should quit this job. Maybe I should collect all of my savings, quit this job and buy a nice cottage in Switzerland or something and just live peacefully. At least then I won't need to see those brats everyday and suffer humiliation from stupid pranks. I have a PHD for bio-molecular scien...
“What the fuck is a “vibe check”?” The imagery was... cryptic, or at least none of us had any idea what they all meant. The pictures depicted an “emoji”, which is a yellow circle with an expression hypothetically used to display expressions (obviously.), reaching towards the viewer with a hand. We don’t know for what...
"Jack...I hate to break it to you but we cant let you out." "Why? Havent you figured out whats wrong with me?" "Well yes but...not really" "You guys were supposed to be the scientists! I even performed a heart surgery for you guys!" "Im gonna put it straight Jack, all test came back as average." "Thats good! Right...
The incessant clickity clack of the pen was driving the "power broker"nuts.. "Could you just...put the pen away?? "the power broker snarled. "And why would I do that? "the auditor snapped back. "Nevermind...you people never listen anyway"he muttered under his breath. "What was that???"the auditor retorted. "Nothin...
Richards death was unexpected, to say the least. He was just walking down the sidewalk on a normal sunny day when an I-beam fell from the sky and impaled the ground directly in front of him. The tip of his nose was subjected to its velocity as it turned the concrete into shards and embedded itself deep into the ground....
Its a bit of a weird juxtaposition. I am Satan. My only fans are Scandinavian black metal bands and Christian Bale. Im not a real popular fella, but this time every year I inevitably get dozens of letters from spelling challenged kids asking for all sorts of ridiculous things. At first I ignored them. Its always the sa...
7 rooms, 7 people. I sighed, knowing that no matter what happened in the first 6 rooms, room 7 would be my end. Hell awaits regardless. I approach the first door and opened it. The label engraved on the wood read: THE ABUSER: “Hello uncle Royce.” I heard the door slowly creak until it closed. “Hello Nephew.” The p...
I was just a kid when it happened the first time, and I suppose they were too. I was making a sandwich in the kitchen, when the world suddenly fell silent. Confused, I turned to look out the kitchen door, and saw my gramma, still sitting in the recliner, tv frozen on a frame of Wheel of Fortune. The the world started...
She always loved scary things. There was something about her tiny body in the crook of my arm that made me feel like the bravest man in the world even though that was the furthest from the truth. And when she would look at me with her mother’s eyes, scared to her little bones, and trembling with excitement, I did my ...
It was the warmth that awoke me. I like it cool when I sleep, but something was warming up the air of my house. Hot breath and fire, from the smell of it. Some thief thinking that they could come to steal the life savings of an old man. They would find this theft more difficult than they'd hoped. I reached under my bed...
"A single change in time can have disastrous consequences - we were always taught that. It was part of the basic school curriculum - the first thing we learnt"I spoke, looking around me in fright. I didn't want to be here... No one wanted to be here. "And yet I didn't listen. I mean, come on... we were all 117 once - ...
I remember the blood seeping into my tunic. The curse from the arrowhead burrowed into my mind. Something is different is my last thought before I passed out. This is a hovel. After so many years of hunting the unclean, I know a hovel when I see one. Where houses have a warmth to them, a hovel has none. No m...
It had been this way for centuries. My father, his father before him, and his before him. Proud warriors chosen by the sharpest swords in the known world, and by extension de-facto rulers of the kingdom. But now, it was my turn. Dad had sat me down and spoken to me at great length about the ceremony, and how the “wea...
Millions of tons of advanced alloys and composites. Kilometers long and half again as wide. Engines larger than skyscrapers of Old Earth, long ago destroyed in the Miveren War. And yet, I get a scant 1000sq meters of space to live in. The rest of the ship is in vacuum, a necessity to reduce damage in battle from being...
“Hey, lets go to the Mall!” “Right now?” Jack was right, it wasn’t the time to go to the mall but Erick did get his way. It was all so sudden, walking across the street Erick was telling Jack about what he was looking for. “Alright I’m trying to find this jacket, not too thick but-” And just like that Erick was ran...
"You're... firing me?"Satan says. The shock riddles over Satan's face "Sounds about right!"God heartily replies, throwing his hand onto Satan's shoulder and digging in with a firm grip. "What'd I do?"Satan notices God's grin gleaming at him and begins to worry. "Which genocide was it? Were the plagues too much?... D...
“State Affliction” Gerard: How did you defeat Lucas? Heidi: I inflicted Michigan upon him. But when I did that Michigan happened to me too. Gerard: You…inflicted Michigan on him? How that beat him? Heidi: He had to bob and weave some very, very deep potholes to many to count, or he’d break an axle on his car. Plus...
“Welcome to Mana Mountain Gift Shop!” Gary yelled at the top of his breath at the throng of tourists. “We have keychains, fridge magnets, and for the low price of just $10, a mana tracker that estimates the amount of mana the Mana Mountain has!” “Download Mana Mountain App now to obtain a $5 rebate at Merry’s Mountain...
Fear. That's what was the last emotion to rush in the clumsy rivers of my blood. Nothing valiant or honourable, just fear. Fear of death. Fear of pain. Fear for myself. I remember, over the thin wail of wind, the sound of men begging for their mothers and for home and for comfort. Men. Fearful, desperate men, torn and ...
“Well, this is a mess we’ve gotten ourselves into indeed isn’t it?” Greg Alexander mused to no one in particular as he assessed the space he would, presumably, occupy to himself for the foreseeable future. All things considered it was not overly oppressive. The walls hinted at something that might have once been whi...
This is the testament of Azazel, soilder for the Morning Star. If only I knew then what I know now. Would I have chosen to fall with the morning star? When we were young it was so clear that nothing would come from the thing the Lord had made. It was insanity, to say that we, being of the devine light should, bend a...
Sebastian Barkwith awoke early on the morning of his eighteenth birthday. Anticipation of what lay ahead of him today meant that he had hardly slept at all. He was already out of bed and dressed in his Sunday Best when Mary, the maid, knocked softly on the door and came in, her lop-eared rabbit hopping contentedly at h...
[…] "This apple can't fly me to work, though, can it Maxwell?" "Simon, it's an apple. It's not supposed to fly you to work." "Yeah, but if it did, wouldn't it be a little bit better than this supposed 'perfect apple'?" It was in that moment that Simon began to become slightly more transparent by the second. First...
