[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | The rifle hadn't fired in almost a week. The mech hadn't had any rounds to fire in almost a month, though I guess being left with nothing but guided missiles is nothing to complain about. We'd been charged with finding a supply outpost that had recently gone dark on the communication RIG, but we hadn't been told any ot... | 2 | 0 | 42 | 39,172 |
[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | "We're still ten days away," Scarlet said. Her dark black hair was pulled back into her cap and her head was down low, trying to block the wind. Scar's feminine figure was shrouded in her rugged clothes. Her backpack was swung over her shoulder with her rifle strapped to it. I could see nothing but the snow for miles,... | 3 | 0 | 42 | 39,173 |
[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | I do not like to lie to my daughter, but I have. The lie is a small matter because we will not last the night. I feel the cold, or imagine that I do, creeping in from the airtight seal. The trek home is not such a long way, but this time it is too long for us. The oxygen will run out tonight. And we will die.

[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | Ten days away, that was what they had told us. What a joke to think they would tell me the truth.

[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | It was easy for a man to lose track of time in the cold wastelands. When the wind wasn't roaring at night, a deafening silence descended upon the steppe flats.

[IP][WP] "We're still ten days away" | Parker trudged slowly forward, the thin layer of fresh snow crunching under his heavy boots.

They told me it would get better. That once I got away from her I would be free. I can still feel her inside of me. When I look in the mirror she looks back.When I speak, it is with her voice.

[IP] Breaking Free | For so long, she slept.
Her body bound by cloth and steel, her mind clouded with sedatives pumped in her blood stream day and night, Callie barely remembered who she was. Somewhere, deep in the back of her mind, she clung to a memory of a warm, sunny day, a picnic by the lake. She could remember laughter and the feel ... | 4 | 0 | 7 | 39,185 |
[WP] Heartbreak is a real disorder, and can even be fatal at times. | It is easy to look back and say that I should never have got myself into this mess. Five long years and for what? I'm stuck in a relationship with a woman I no longer love, but couldn't bear to see die. So I push on, knowing that some day we'll get married...maybe even have kids.

Looking down at the kid, I knew straight away. I don't know why I asked. To keep things official, maybe.

[WP] Heartbreak is a real disorder, and can even be fatal at times. | Serial murder is an art form; a dance of a billion steps, a painting worth twenty times its weight in oil, a story written in inky blood on sheets of skin.

[WP] Heartbreak is a real disorder, and can even be fatal at times. | Thirty years had passed. I and my husband had been in love for thirty years but only recently have we been allowed to be married. We leapt at the chance after laws passed accepting homosexual marriage and said our vows immediately; I took on his last name. We’re old men by the time we marry and he had cancer.

[WP] What happened that led this girl to this bridge? | Jane called her little sister. "Quick, Emily! We can't let anyone know! Not even mother!" They both were less than ten years old, but they both knew what would happen if they lied. Especially on something like this.

[WP] What happened that led this girl to this bridge? | The wind whipped her black hair across her face, tendrils snapping at my hands whenever I reached for her.

No need to have that heart attack, it won't do you any good. It won't kill you anyhow.
There is no need to speak, either. Not now at any rate. I have little time for threats of violence, pleas of clemency or inane questions.

My children are resting comfortably in their graves and their children know nothing of me.
