[WP] As the demon stared at the mortal who summoned it, all that could be heard was a sigh before the words, "You do realize this is a marriage proposal, right?"
Lleataell, demi-demon of chaos, as his friends liked to call them back in what was known as 'the good old days' in hell, when humans raped and pillaged their way throughout the known world without a care for the spiritual consequences of their actions, stared at the young mortal standing before him. Her lips quirked up...
"Oh for the love of-" he spat as he appeared before the mortal who summoned him. "Is there something I can help you with?" The human looked at him, seemingly surprised at her success in summoning him. The flame on the candle in her hands wavered as small, pale hands shook. "Well?" he asked again. The female squeaked...
[WP] As the demon stared at the mortal who summoned it, all that could be heard was a sigh before the words, "You do realize this is a marriage proposal, right?"
This had to be the third summoning in a week, Luciel rolled his eyes and put on his coat, “I’ll be back in 10.” Alastor gave him a pitying smile, “A new occult horror flick probably came out, the hype will die in about a week.” “I hope. I don’t think I can stand another rejection and accompanying look of complete di...
"You do realize this is a marriage proposal, right?" She looked up at him with a quirked smile. *I... Do not speak to me that way, mortal.* The words slipped through her mind like water, filling her mind with his rasping breath. His hands, shadowy and dark with slender finger-like tendrils, moved towards his face unco...
[WP] A shaman pulls a prank on the village idiot by giving him some leftover herbs and claiming that they grant invincibility. The village idiot exhibits the placebo effect so strongly that he actually becomes invincible.
“If that fool has gotten himself into trouble, I’ll disappear him myself,” muttered Serbuba as he scurried back towards the village. He was spritely still, though the weathered lines on his face left little doubt as to his age. Serbuba had cut short his daily expedition for herbs after finally admitting that he was wo...
*I can feel it! The power within!* Tlazohtlaloni said while he finished the purification ritual recommendend by the great shaman Eztli. He desired so much to attain invincibility that it was a bother for the entire village. When he asked Eztli for the fifth time this week to create a potion to become the ultimate warr...
[WP] As a child in the 1960s you heard the phrase 'somebody walked on my grave' after somebody shivered. While watching the moon landing, you see Buzz Aldrin step on the moon. You immediately shiver.
I bring my cart to a stop along the ridge, just in time to see the last few glimmering rays shoot out from the edge of the Earth, so far away, so out of reach. >My childhood was spent looking to the stars, dreaming of adventure and possibility in a way only a child can: I was going to captain a starship, to explore...
"Ronnie Ronnie!I'm gonna die on the moon!" "Shut the fuck up Joel." "No really, Mr. Aldrin sent shivers down my spine" "Now?" "No, when he was on the moon." "you know they faked that right?" "No, they didn't I felt it" "You felt them land on the moon?" "No! on my spine!" "I'm sure they didn't send astronauts t...

Jenn could almost see the flag on the horizon, bleached white by the ultraviolet rays. Within her suit she was shivering like she was stuck in a blizzard, and with each step she took she felt colder and colder. A familiar crackle chimed in. *"Jenn? You're running out of oxygen."* Jenn took a quick glance back to the ...

I clutched my side as the color drained from my face. Blood was spreading across my neatly pressed white shirt, dark and red as wine. “It wasn't supposed to be like this.” “Be like what, traitor?” The man I once called my friend unscrewed the silencer from a sleek black pistol and began to procure a black tarp from i...
"Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum!!!" I scream, running into the kitchen. "The moon is my grave." My mother is working on the dishes in the sink. She places the plate she was cleaning into the sudsy water and turns to face me. "What?" She says with a small laugh. "Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon and I shivered so that's my gr...
[WP] Over six billion orbs descend on earth, one for each man, woman and child. The orbs do nothing but silently hover near each person, until one day....
The orbs descended to Earth all of a sudden. For each human, there was a shining ball of what seemed to be pure energy. The news was consumed with these balls of light almost instantly. Rightfully so, Ruri Ikeda found them completely terrifying. Her ball, pulsating white with bluish halos of light glowing within, w...
On the thirty-second day of the orbs the world had begun to adjust to them, confident that they meant nothing insidious. It was just past midnight, Eastern Time, when they all opened at once - and their true nature became apparent. Evil beyond anything the scientists had postulated was among us. A worldwide scream was...

Over six billion orbs descended upon Earth from the skies, one for each man, woman and child. Except Travis. He built his own replica so as not to raise eyebrows. Despite the initial uproar, the orbs did nothing but silently hover over the person. Over time, some began praying to their orb while others began decorati...
The orbs began pressing into their hosts. There was no pain, no feeling of intrusion just a warm glow and then they were gone. It didn't take people here very long to enter a state of panic. Very quickly the doctors realised that each and every host was a vessel, a pregnant host for an as yet unknown species. Surgery w...

He had lost count of the days since they left. The rocky soft white glow of the barren terrain didn't offer much for tracking the passage of time and eventually he decided that marking an X on the calendar every day was getting depressing. Still, more pressing on his mind than how long he had been alone were the ques...

[WP] Your Grandma, a shape-shifter, is diagnosed with Alzheimers. She begins to forget her true form...or was it a disguise all along?
My grandparents had always been the handsomest couple I had ever known. They had both aged gracefully, their hair turning from brown to grey to a stark white and wrinkles appearing because of how often they smiled. Grandma’s bright blue eyes always looked into Grandma’s warm brown ones. I had never seen them wear outfi...
My grandma makes the best turkey dinners. In fact, her turkey is so good that turkey anywhere else just seems blah. It lacks the vibrant, sweet undertones and tender-beyond-belief texture of her turkey. Growing up, going to “mee-maw’s” house for dinner was always a good day. After moving out, I kept a close relationsh...

"Grandma Lao!" Jordana called. "I've got rock-free cookies, and if you don't want them, they're all for me!" A dragon barged through the door, splintering it into a thousand pieces. Steam billowed from her mighty nostrils, her tongue flicking towards the direction of the cookies. Jordana dropped her tray on the table ...

Shape shifters don't age. It was the oldest lie. I had never seen my grandmother look a day over twenty in her entire life. Yet here she was, sat in bed, confused by everything. Her brain had to be maintained in the shapeshifting, and so while she could reform her skin to be plump and fresh every morning (when she saw ...

Every Sunday I visited my grandma at Sunny Oaks. It was a tradition I'd started right after Mom died, in the interest of helping both of us cope. In the five years since, I'd never so much as seen another person coming or going from her apartment. That's not the *only* reason I dropped my coffee, of course. The person...
[WP] Death appears at your door, he just wants to talk.
I opened the door. It was Death, standing with his hood off and his scythe leaned gently against the wall. His skull shined like porcelain under the porch light. The instinctual twinge of fear passed by almost unnoticed. It had been a long time since that fear grabbed me by the throat and brought me to my knees. Instea...

The Street The street was empty and dark. Its denizens were dark and empty. It was one thousand yards long and 15 yards wide, laid with ancient cobbled stones. Each side was lined with narrow buildings, squeezed together like the chickens at a food mill. These buildings stretched up toward the sky, begging God to be ...

He set up his aim. He was ready, as he always was when a job came with such a large sum of money attached to it.

"Honey, how's the work going?" "Everything's fine dear," I said as I cleaned the muzzle of my Beretta. "Accounting's boring as fuck, but it pays the bills, right?" I silently cursed as I saw a smear of blood on my new shoes. There was a limit to the number of excuses I could pull off, and they were slowly - but surely...
"It was no problem sweetie," I told her, trying to keep my voice calm. My head was pounding and I felt a bead of sweat form on my right temple. There was no way I could overpower them. There were three of them and only one of me. Well, I didn't know for a *fact* there was three of them, but I assumed. He always ...

I watched as the mark moved across the dance floor, weaving in and out of the crowd. I was on the other side of the bar, drink in hand, watching and waiting, formulating a plan of action. My phone buzzed. Cursing myself for this breach of professionalism, I was about to turn it off when I saw the text message from my ...
"Hey Honey, where were you last night?" I sighed into the phone quietly and transitioned the cellphone from my left to my right and cocked my head so that it rested on my shoulder. "Work, the boss called in late," I said as I looked down at the bloody mess in front of me; on me. "I-I see. You're always so busy it wo...

The doorbell rang a second time. Very carefully, very quietly, I set the handset back in the bracket of the phone, disconnecting the line. Darla would wonder why I hung up on her, but I’d have to explain it to her later. That is, assuming I survived the next few minutes. I didn’t approach the door. I knew how this...
"Thank you for the flowers for our Valentines" she exclaim her voice sounded hollow and fuzzy but what can you expect from a phone. I knew though that it was a half hearted expression of gratitude Right when I found the right words, not to disappoint her for my lack of a love and mouthed the first words. A pounding o...

I've been in this situation before. I hang up on my wife after a quick "I love you" and get to work. My name is Kevin McAllister, and I'm Home Alone. I've fended of these fuckers before and I can do it again. This time I have some nicer toys though. I hook up my Colt Peacemaker to the knob of the door so that, whe...

Azazael stepped into the arena, his sandaled feet kicked up clouds of grey dust. He lifted his glowing sword Daedrael to the roar of the gathered crowd. His powerful white wings stretched out to their full length, nearly thirty feet now. His opponent was already standing inside the arena sixty paces across from him....
His mother sifted his hair and the shadows fell as bars as she knelt near the entrance. "Do not cry my son," she said. "Have faith." "But I cannot win, mother. I cannot survive. Jerod is too strong and he is much older." "Do not give up hope. Hope is the true God." "I hate Him! He is no true God! He is no..." ...

"Are you fucking serious?" Taylor looked up from his mission briefing. "Look, all they told me is that the whole bloody place has gone dark, and they haven't heard shit since." I finished strapping on my gear and stood up. I slowly walked to where Williams was standing in the back of the plane. "You ready for this?"...

Sitting at the edge of the helicopter looking ahead at the dark coastline looming through the rain, I can't help but reflect over the events of the past 72 hours.

"Do you think now is the time to be handing me electric bills?" I yelled over the roar of the chopper. "Johnson, just *look*" prompted Commander Hughes, shoving the screen towards me with impatience.

"What do you mean, it's empty?" I winced at the tone that Jaspers used as he rounded on the poor technician, rising up on his tiptoes to intimidate with every one of his sixty-four inches of height. A guy that short shouldn't be able to loom so well, but Jaspers managed it, bearing down on the bespectacled nerd. "I ...

Within the clouds there was no noise, only the constant whir of the chopper blades pulsing above the men and I. I shifted my legs so that they crossed each other and looked out the sliding door.
