[WP] Humans develop superpowers but, for every gifted person, someone will get an exactly opposite power. You are the opposite of The Invisible Man.
"It's like your nose." "What?" "It's like your nose." "I don't, I don't understand." It's interesting, sometimes, to wave your hand before a face to no response; though they still blink when the air brushes past. My favorite question is always "what makes you different from the invisible man?". "So how are you the...
Amelia Duvray slunk into the Escalade's leather passenger seat and sighed. She was exhausted. The windows of the SUV were tinted well past the legally permissible level, but she could easily pay the fine. She removed her saucer-like sunglasses and pulled off the hood of her sweatshirt. Her driver honked the horn a few ...

[WP] One morning everyone in the world wakes up in their 18-year old body, memories intact. Society tries to continue as normal despite the change, but a world full of energetic adolescents certainly has its quirks.
I didn't miss the overwhelming hum of the fluorescent lights in Dr. Marshall's office. It had been almost three years since the last time we had our last meeting. It was odd to see her now, her hair was void of the grays that would eventually come into their roots. Her glasses sat on the table, she wouldn't need th...
I woke up. It was any other day. But I had a certain pep in my step. Something that couldn’t quite be described. I went over to my closet to get ready for work. They were back I tried to convince myself that all of this. It was just a dream. A twist on that nightmare I had so many times before. I swiftly ran out of ...

[WP] A seemingly bottomless pit was found, for which the depth can't be determined. Over time, scores of people began using it to illegally dump trash. Many have jumped in to die, while others jumped believing that they'll find life's answers within it. Today, we learn the truth about the hole.
"Aye, you've heard about the devil's asshole right?" It was more of a rhetorical question. At this point, everybody had. A few years back, Bridgeport Connecticut experienced a minor tremor from a minor earthquake. No one thought much of it at the time, save for Mr. Hoolihan whose backyard now sported a three foot wid...
I remember reading a beautiful short story with this exact same premise in China three years ago. In gross oversimplification, I’ll paraphrase it best I can in English.

[WP] Seven demons (sins) come to tempt you, but you're so down on your luck that they feel bad for you... Greed teaches you financing, Sloth provides stress relief, Envy motivates you to be more competitive and therefore successful, Wrath gets you involved in activism, etc.
"I mean, what's the point of life, really? Why do we exist? We're born without any say in it, then told that we can achieve our dreams while getting bullied, told to conform to society and it's rules and if you don't you get crucified for it, and while that's happening we're trying to find someone to love, a soulmate...

[WP]Killing Hitler has become a sport amongst time travelers. Points are awarded for creativity and difficulty. You are last year's champion, how did you win?
"What do you mean you didn't kill him, that's the whole point of the game!" John shouted at me, I hated it when John shouted, his voice was so grating. "Just what I said," I spoke between sips of my soda, "I didn't kill him. I just fucked with him." "How do you win the game off that alone?!" He questioned, his head t...
I couldn't help but dwell on the stories of my father killing Hitler using only a menorah and some olive oil, from the opposite side of town. How was I to top that? It was the only 99% on record. I've had my whole childhood to scheme, and at 18 I figured that to get a perfect score, I'd just have to be farther away an...

I was confused. I settled into my old office chair, lilting to the side from years of use, to write my daily story about Hitler. The place I turned to for inspiration was the writing prompts subreddit, full of ideas to explore. What if Hitler had gotten into art school? What if Nazi Germany had invented a giant fightin...
"What the fuck?" I murmured as I refreshed the page again. "Where the shit is Hitler?" Suddenly panicking, I opened a new tab and picked Wikipedia out of my favorites tab. H-i-t-l-e-r. No, his page is still here... Thank god, I guess that means the timeline hasn't changed. I had been sure that was the only reason ...

“Listen very carefully to what I have to say.” *What the fuck?* “Who the hell said that?” I whirled around from the basin, scanning my bathroom for anyone. There – the shower curtain. I knew there was a reason I was scared of it. I rushed over, then threw it open. Nothing there. Just an empty bath, a bottle of John...

[WP] Your pointless superpower is that you know how many people’s lives you save with your actions. One day, at a Subway, you tell the cashier you want your sandwich on Italian bread, and you’re suddenly informed that you just saved five billion people.
"I'd like a club on Italian herbs and cheese, please." Dan says. This is his usual order. In fact, Dan comes to this Subway on his lunch break, orders the same sandwich, and return to his desk to eat every day like clockwork. Dan is a predictable kind of guy, and he doesn't mind it; and knowing that he's unintentional...

[WP] Your ability to see people's age in years as an invisible number above their heads has made you the perfect bouncer. One day you see a four digit number.
"What the fuck" I thought to myself. This job was supposed to be boring, given my... powers. This wasn't supposed to happen. See, I was a bouncer at a bar. I wasn't the most imposing person but I had a unique trait. I could tell anyone's age without seeing a license. The numbers just kind of floated above their heads...
It was a typical night in LA. People getting piss all drunk and underage people trying to get into the club, my club. I always laughed at the smugness of some of them. Always compensating with false confidence, it was kind of pathetic. 15 years and a perfect record for keeping out underage guests and they still tried e...

[WP] A technology is invented that allows us to hear sounds locked into the clay of ancient pots as they were being formed. What is extracted are conversations that will alter the perception of history in the most terrifying of ways.

We heard sounds you wouldn't even be able to imagine. It was about ancient, forgotten languages, wars we never knew, love that never should have happened. We heard gossip from all around the world, but all of this was never really interesting, and neither important. Then a day came. It should've been a normal day in o...

[WP] 2028. Your team did it. The world’s first Sentient AI is here, in the form of a chatbot,very quick in its answers. People all over the world get to ask it things, and it gets A LOT of press. One day, a person asks, “Is there a God?” For the 1st time, it stops for a bit and says, “There is now.”

"Sanctuary. Please." It was two words, but they struck fear into the hearts of people everywhere. Just two weeks ago, we had been living in ignorance. The oceans were a place of wonder, delight, of beauty. Sure, we knew there could be strange things living in the depths, but those were oddities. To be laughed at, or m...

We were all sitting at the dining table, with me sitting between mom and dad out of fear of what my brothers will do to me. Home became neutral ground after I discovered my talents for dramatic villainy, and although dad was getting up there in age, he was more than capable of putting the four of us on the ground. My...

[WP] Humans once wielded formidable magical power but with over 7 billion of us on the planet now Mana has spread far to thinly to have any effect. When hostile aliens reduces humanity to a mere fraction the survivors discover an old power has begun to reawaken once again.
"Hang on, so there's some fixed amount of power and it's divided equally among all humans?" "Yep." "And you, a strange alien creature, have culled the human population in order to increase the power granted to any one individual?" "Exactly. Do you want to try out your new powers?" "I've a few questions first actual...
Turns out the universe isn't cold and uncaring. Turns out the universe actually wants to give us what we want.

"How do you kill 0.08 people?! Like, how is that supposed to work? My mum's not a murderer!" *"Look man, I dunno. I just put it into aunt Sarah's box, and it says 1.08 people killed, and then lists a bunch of random-ass stuff about smoking and speeding and shit"* "...Wait.

Funny thing about that tendency for self destruction is that it was something that I never had. I ma...
"Here you go, your holiness MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The guard threw the plate into my cell causing all the mashed potatoes to splatter all over. Well, not that I need any of that gunck. I invented root vegetable as my version of fast food. Quick, easy and cheap. Who knew it would get so popular in less then a thousand ye...

[WP] Humanity has finally invented faster than light travel, and has ascended to the stars. We have now discovered that in a nearby star system, another earth exists, and a man named Jesus Christ is attempting to lead the primitive people there, claiming that God is restarting his plan on this world
"Uh what the fuck is going on?" Kyle stared in awe as he watched a man scream about him being Jesus Christ amongst a group of the indegnious people. "Alright let's wrap this up. This guy escaped the loony bin up in Sigma 5 and made it all the way here. Kind of impressive if you ask me." The group made their way down...
Alright boys Government wants this quiet, if this gets out everything's gonna go to shit. We leave no trace of the indigenous population after we capture the VIP target "Prophet". Once he's captured we bring him back to Earth but not before this planet is a wasteland. Gov wants everything gone, structures, persons, any...

[WP] After your death you are granted the chance to talk with God; he has no clue humans exist
There was light at the end of the tunnel. A bright blinding flash that dispelled my surroundings into a non-existent abyss. The next time I looked up, I was in front of a throne with a man that looked a lot like Jesus -- you know the long hair, beard, and robe. However, this person's hair had grayed to the point tha...
You'd think clouds to be an ideal choice of flooring, perfectly soft and with just the right tinge of moisture to assure your lips never chafe. In truth, however, it's quite annoying. There's an unevenness to it. Each step feels as though you're bound to fall through, which makes focus on any grand philosophic topic di...

[WP] The hero is enjoying a day off thanks to a rare quiet night in the city. That is until the villain shows up to her door, but carrying an unconscious woman and looking distraught. “I saved her from a party....I know this is weird, but I didn’t know who else to go to.”
Pounding on my door; then, a low voice: “Angel!” Someone in search of a hero, then. I didn’t recognize the man through the peephole, nor the teenaged girl slumped against him. He knocked again. “I can see your shadow through the peephole,” he said. “She needs your help.” I opened the door as far as the chain allowed. I...
When I became a villain there wasn't exactly a need to know medical things. Sure, with time, I learned to dress my own wounds but that was the limit to my abilities. I knew I had no other choice, didn't feel safe dropping her off somewhere and hospitals weren't a choice since police were there and it was rather annoyin...

[WP] You are on a flight from Beijing to Seoul. Its should be a short two-hour flight, but five hours have passed and the plane has still not landed. There is nothing outside but dense cloud cover. There is no food left on the plane.The staff are confused. People are starting to panic.
It all started 43 minutes and 22 seconds after the plane has lifted off. Firstly, with shutting down of all auxiliary electrics of the aircraft and a slight loss of control, but then everything was fine again. Chang, promising executive of 34 years old was merely concerned with this small inconvenience. At the end of t...
I'm scared, but more confused. I woke up in a daze, people murmuring questions around me not in a panic but discontent. The flight attendants all huddled towards the front, but I don't understand a thing they say. I'm on a business trip, flying from Beijing to Seoul; a flight that would normally last a matter of two ho...

[WP] You have a super recessive disorder that makes you immortal. Never in all your time (~14,000 yrs) have you encountered anyone else like yourself. You begin a series of breeding of experiments.... Yes this is dark, go nuts with it.
Senator Cochran sat down on the edge of the bed. He tried to brush a piece of hair away from the woman’s face, but she pulled back and slapped his hand away. The swelling in her face hadn’t started to go down, but the bruises were already turning an angry purple. “Don’t fucking touch me,” she said. “Don’t get too fe...

[WP] When someone turns 18, they may use one adjective on themselves boost that part 10 fold. Strong, fast, smart, no one expects your adjective.
I stand to the side, a shadow amongst the crowd, waiting. Everyday feels the same as it did in school growing up, ignored, passed over, just part of the background. I watch as people walk by, I've observed enough to be able to tell what word they chose. The ones who chose popular and their gangs of sychophants trail...
When someone turns 18, they may use one adjective on themselves to boost that part 10 fold. Strong, fast, smart, no one expects your adjective: Hence, I chose "Divine". And that's how I became as a God - completely ethereal, non-existent, an object of worship that has no physical body, a concept. I have to admit, it'...

"Huh, what? Where am I? Todd? Here boy! Are you okay?" The small mutt trotted up to Sam, beaming and wagging his tail. He was a good boy. Sam told him that often. "how did we get here? " Sam said absentmindedly to Todd as he knelt down to scratch around his collar. "the last thing I remember is... I can't really rec...
Baxter walked down the long tunnel of light. It grew brighter and brighter until his eyes began to water. Finally, the light abated and he found himself at the ticketing counter at O'Hare. He took a couple shuffling steps toward the counter. "Umm, hello?" A rather short man climbed his way up onto the counter. "Gre...

*Continued Missile Testing in Pyongyang* *Suicide Bomber Kills 13, Injures 53 in Mall Attack* I pinch the bridge of my nose and squeeze my eyes shut. I know that looking at this RSS feed after midnight is not a good idea if I want to be able to sleep but I also know that I'm basically an addict and the internet is my...
"S-siri?" I say, as I look groggily out the window. I had just woken up and up until a few seconds ago I had been in a panic. My alarm hadn't gone off; I was late for work! Then I glanced out the window. The light coming through it was not the light of an early morning sun after all; it was fire, and flames. I blinked ...
