The Soviet Union has a press release where they confirm that they had organized the assassination of Kennedy.
We promised the world a new freedom. On a new revoultion we brought foward a new age. It was obvious, the history of mankind was leading us to this point in time. Where we would remove the old shackles which tamed and mained us. All was moving along as planned until we saw reports of a new ideologue. For certain our ...

[PM] I'm a musician who needs a tone or feeling and inspiration for some instrumental pieces that I want to record. Try and move my emotions!
This is from a book. Let me know if I'm doing something wrong. ---------- "All night long Seven Sisters whisper and giggle and then, all together, they rush Orion the Hunter and tickle him, and Orion the Hunter laughs so hard he shakes every star in the sky, not to mention Mooncow, who loses her balance and falls--*p...

-Original Creation, however Characters from an Anime Series: Hellsing Ultimate- -- The rain poured down on the City of Fog, blood poured down from the streets. Blood and intestines, organs splattered everywhere, blood ran up walls of large buildings. In a matter of days, the city was turned into a graveyard. Lamp po...

The sun had just started to rise over the sea. A giant smear of orange spread across the water and the grey blue of the sky above started to warm, the odd cloud heated red. Then the sun stopped rising; it hung there, cut in half by the horizon. We were all trapped here, stuck in this beautiful moment, waiting for th...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
Come here kiddo, we need to talk. No, you're not in trouble, how could you be? Now, I need you to listen really carefully and understand what I'm about to tell you, okay? Good. Now... you know how Mommy went away to go protect people in another country? When she got on that big plane and we gave her hugs and kisses an...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
Huddled in my bedroom corner on the floor I stared down at my beloved carpet. It was made to be like a 2d city with roads, buildings, freeways... it even had an airport on the south edge. There was no traffic today. The airport had been shutdown, no planes were taking off, no planes were landing. This was unprecedented...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
The phone rang a few times before he picked it up. "Yeah?" "Hey, kiddo." "Don't you 'hey, kiddo' me. I don't have a lot of time." The voice on the other end was silent. "I saw the verdict." He paused for a moment. "She's not coming back, is she?" The line remained silent. "Fine, then." "Wait." A sigh, and he p...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
"Daddy, where's mommy?" "Mommy's not here, darling." "Where is she?" I sigh, knowing that these words would come out of her mouth eventually. I had been dreading this talk for many sleepless nights, wondering exactly how to phrase it. "Mommy isn't coming home." My baby girl starts to cry. I cuddle her in my arms, a...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
The boat drifted from the island as Kyle and Gina began their trip back to the main land. Kyles mouth was dry and he thought his wife must've felt the same so he let go of her hand that he had clung to like a branch on the tree of life since they had found their salvation in the old boat and went to grab the water he s...

[WP] A father explaining to his son that mommy is not coming home.
I felt like shit, standing there, waiting for my son to get out of school. Waiting for him to come running through the doors, happy as he always was, and me hoping that today some of that happiness could help pull me out of this pit I felt myself sinking into. I hadn’t slept at all the night before, what with Ellen w...

[IP]A scene of nostalgia (x-post from r/heavymind)
His car was a few miles from completely hitting E. "What else?". He had already been to his high school, his first apartment, and that Burger King he worked at throughout college. He had just gotten back seeing the empty plot of land that was once the home he grew up in. "Everything is way too different now." He rounde...

I like how you explore the concept of savagery as a survival advantage. Which hero would you bring back?

General Chukwu sat before the council. Their desperation, (aided in no small part by the moving speech given by Chukwu that had been inspired by the anger at seeing his homeworld burn), had left them no choice but to approve the proceeding of Project Genesis. The ages of peace that man had enjoyed had a nasty side effe...
