He practically reeked with dishonesty, from his too-wide smile to the gallons of cologne he was wearing to the ill-tailored suit he wore. You'd think a man working at a men's outfitters would have a proper-fitting suit. "That seems like ...

[WP] I immediately regret this decision!
Pain in my ass. I light my fourth smoke since 8pm. It's 8:20. It was always piss simple. You see an obstacle, you remove it. Kids on the playground every damn day, beating my ass, back in elementary school. So finally, I get fed up, and make some rounds with a baseball bat. Not a one of ‘em will even *look* ...

The congregation was assembled. The people gathered were waiting for one thing - for her. The virgin, all dressed in white, slowly - hesitantly? - made her way to the altar. Slowly, with each measured step being watched by the assembly with great trepidation and scrutiny - this was a moment they'd been expecting for...

Marcus Harbak had never been very fond of the sewers. Since the time of his youth, he had always stayed far away from the manholes. Even as a full-grown man, with a gun in his holster and eleven years of precision training behind the barrel, he scooted over the metal covers as quickly as the regiment’s formation woul...

[CW] Write a story where you begin and end the story with the words "death has no power".
"Death has no power" "Whataya mean Death has no power, isn't that what we we burn those people for?" Said George, pointing over to the large furnaces stuffed with screaming humans. "I dunno, he just said his power went out so why don't you go check on it before he gets pissed and starts firing people like me" said Sa...

Death has no power. For you see, she is a scavenger. The nimble being that darts in and devourers what remains of us. Death is very patient and will only strikes the wounded, the ones who are left dying and vulnerable out in the open. The real alpha predator is Life. The one that dares to take what it wants ...

-003 Death has no power. That’s what I keep telling myself. I keep whispering to myself. Don’t do it. Don’t do what? Don’t jump. Don’t jump. Ha, I’m not jumping, I’m falling. I’ve always wanted to feel like I was flying, although this is a shitty substitute. Something I won’t even remember. I think it was curiosity th...

"Death has no power." That was what my father told me before they hauled him off to the gallows. That was what he last told me. He wasn't a religious man, didn't hold great faith in the afterlife. Oh sure, he believed in it. He just didn't see what was so great about it. I have reflected long and often on his last word...

“Death has no power.” so read the graffiti scrawled on the rotting prison's long abandoned walls. Without thinking, I ran my fingers across the message, drawn to it...hoping to find some connection with a human long since dead. There was no shiver, no moment of clarity, no sublime realization of my place in the unive...

Death has no power. This is the motto that he lived by ever since his girlfriend of five years left him. The day she left was the day that he stopped caring about everything. The financially stable, one hundred percent sober businessman was now an unemployed drunk with out a care because hey, death has no power ri...

Death has no power. People claim that death steals our friends and family, snuffing out their dreams and aspirations. However even when death claims someone, that person isn't gone, they live on in our hearts and minds. They exist within each life they have touched and their dreams and aspirations will be carried ...

"Death has no power." You could’ve fooled me as I sat beside that hospital bed, watching her thin chest rise and fall. Listening to the soulless beeping of those machines. Hearing her lungs rasping. Hearing her breathing get more and more shallow as the clock on the wall ticked away the last minutes of her life. That...

"Death has no power" - I said looking him straight in the eye, while he pulled the trigger. A moment after that, while Death itself stared at me, I repeated: "Death has no power".

"Death has no power over me. She told herself this thing over and over, chewing her lip as she read her book. "Death has no power has no power over me." She looked up, a prayer on her lips. There was a grinding sound came from the ceiling. She sat with her book, her feet curled beneath her, and a steaming cup of tea b...

In the same way that the easiest way to divert a river is to dam its source, in order to save humanity from itself, I would have to go back to a very early moment. Luckily, the wrist-mounted chronolog that I had been able to smuggle out of the labs of the Tempordyne Corporation would easily be able to send me back to t...

Jack slipped on the ring. Immediately, he saw the world around him change. Shades of those long-gone passed by, as time rewound itself like a tape in a VCR. This was not the first mission Jinx had sent him on. It wouldn't be the last. As Jinx had explained, each point in time has already happened, played out like a tap...

The curiously-garbed stranger glanced yet again at the strange glittering, now foully smoking contraption encircling his left wrist. "Damn it," he whispered. "Please do not condemn us, great god-man," I pleaded, "I don't understand what you're asking of me." "I want nothing, only for you to let me help you through wh...

We didn't have much time. The sirens were blazing and we could hear their men raiding the fortress. Time was ticking away, and time was what we needed the most. I checked the gauntlet. *12.31.99*. The eve of the 21st millennia. "Remember, you only have 30 minutes", said the rebel. "I know," I said as I punched in t...

Edit: I wrote all this on a phone so forgive a few autocorrects and missed corrections.

[WP] A horror in which an intruder is in the house of a mentally unstable person, and the home owner is unsure of whether or not the intruder is a figment of his imagination.
I'm always alone in my house, just as I'm always alone in my mind. Both have their own landscapes and laws, utterly divorced from the outside world, and once you spend enough time isolated in their maze-like expanses, they become cluttered to the brim with strange and frightening shapes that loom at you in the half-l...
