[WP] You've been kidnapped by a cult. Not for sacrifice or anything, they just really need someone to fix the plumbing.
Wet A pool A splash, he drowns in a Cold heavy clothes Waterboard Blazing light. She was smiling at him. Who was she? The girl from the coffee shop. He jerked left: the *man* from the coffee shop. And the younger man… and the woman. They were not in the coffee shop. “*Ciao bella,*” the girl said. “Esorry to e...
The men with the masks towered over me.I peered back through the narrow slits of their masks,begging to be released. "Guys,I'm really sorry but I haven't finished my training. I can't fix your pipes." A three-inch thick hexagon struck my face and knocked me on the ground. A figure,who I assumed was the leader beca...

I’d been kept in this room for days. It wasn’t a bad room, all things considered. It was a nice, cool 72 degrees. Lots of reading material, even a television and a Sega Genesis. They gave me three square meals a day, all gourmet stuff. I’d been playing Sonic for several hours when the door started clanking and popped o...
Last thing I remember was enjoying the view of the Thames on my lunch break on a beautiful sunny day. Then the lights went out. Something was dropped over my head. I tried to pull it off, but couldn't. Next, I heard a voice say, "Sorry about this, chum." Then I was whisked away so quickly, I felt faint, dizzy. Blacked ...

I was bent in front of the Stone Altar, kneeling in the dirt. The cultists whispered their evil incantation. Atop the Altar lay the bloody remains of a goat surrounded by lit candles; it was a sacrafice to their dark God, Yrem. I struggled and strained, their whispers louder and closer. I felt them all around me, t...

They roughly pulled the blindfold from my eyes. Candles. I surrounded by at least two dozen candles. Men in robes stood around me, their faces obscured by hoods. "Brother Johannes, if you please," the tallest figure said. "Wait, wait!" I yelped. "I'm sorry for what I'm about to do," another man, presumably Johanne...

[WP] Completely exaggerate the experience of eating broccoli.
The rushes of flavor, The taste is intense, The texture is simply sublime. I can't help but savor, Each facet of sense, For eating this, I'll take my time. I feel like a creature, That tops all the trees, A dinosaur looking for lunch. And the tastes that feature, They tingle and please, With ev...
Imagine an airplane falling from the sky, crashing into the ground - making an immensely loud noise - passegers screaming - the fuel-tank blowing up - the shock wave that it creates. That's what the sudden realization that I've missed out on life felt like when it struck me for just 2 years ago. Ever since that sudden...
[WP] You're a scientist in the 'paranormal contraptions' department classified by the government. A strange coffee machine is transported to your desk with a touchpad stating it will dispense 100ml of any liquid you enter. You have been put in charge of experimenting with the device.
"Huh." I go to type something in, when- "Everybody down on the ground!" Men in strange suits pin me down and take the coffee machine. "Don't ask me how SCP-294 escaped containment," a man said. "Probably some reality bender. Some fucking... undead turtle or something." "Hey, Jim, don't forget to amnesticize that ...
I reached the lab ten minutes early. Every Monday morning another item would be left on the desk. These items weren’t just your every day items. They were special, some would call them paranormal. Last week it had been glasses that allowed you to zoom in to a microscopic level and the week before that had been a hearin...
[WP] The navigator wakes up in darkness. The wind is gone. The sky is covered with new constellations.
The Navigator awoke in darkness. The wind, which had blown hot and dry like dragon’s breath had died with the light, and now the Lark sat in complete stillness, its sails hanging limply. Around it lay a sea of sand, silvery and mirror-like, unbroken by dunes or tracks save for the snaking imprints of the Lark’s runners...
"Hold us steady, I ain't going down on this run!" The wind howled with a primeval ferocity, each new twist and turn threatening to capsize the ship. Along the deck the various crew members struggled to hold the sail's ropes steady. Even if the waves didn't claim the ship itself the storm threatened to rip the sail fro...
[WP] A small gathering of people crowded the hand-made memorial near the train station. One year ago, an unexplainable tragedy took the lives of dozens. You stand among those crying people, staring at the photos of those who died. You recognize your own face but don’t remember dying.
“How are you feeling?” I asked her, breaking the silence. She breathed in and out heavily through her nose. I felt the breeze across my nipples. “That’s cold,” I joked. She kissed my chest, giggled, and replied, “Amazing.” As she slowly sat up, she looked back at me and gave a smile before standing. After using a ...
The memorial was crowded but he couldn't bring himself to leave. He remembered that night like it was yesterday. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and thought back to the last few minutes of genuine happiness in his life. He saw his beautiful girlfriend. Her hair blew lightly in the breeze. She smelled like lav...

The dimly lit oil lamps of the street did little to illuminate the small grey building, but did wonders in concealing Percival’s face.

"... and Sir Sagramore did leap upon the beast's back, and with his mighty blade did he swipe off its head at a single stroke!" intones the old man dramatically. It never happened, of course. The putative beast was just a hound; it might as well have attacked a dragon as an armored knight. It was nothing I'm proud of,...

The man who called himself Kote settled in at the counter, fingers tapping against the rosewood surface, a beat that held no semblance of rhythm.

He sat there looking at the blood on his hands and his hands on the bar. Condensation pooled around the glass of whiskey between them that he hadn't touched.

When you step inside the King's Arms, you're not hit by a wave of despair, but of something worse. The stench of resignation has, along with urine, beer, and tobacco, permeated the very brickwork of the tavern. Resignation is to me, much graver a sin than despair. Desperate people will do something about their situatio...

[WP] You suffer from Agoraphobia and have never been outside in years. Since the past month, every day someone knocks at your door at 10 AM. They knock for a couple of minutes and then leave. But you haven't heard knocks for the last week and are starting to get curious.

Every morning Edward would sit in his room staring at the computer screen. For years, his mild Agoraphobia had been steadily getting worse.

[WP] All people on earth agree that every conflict, no matter how major or minor, should be settled through the medium of rock, paper, scissors. What does the world look like?
Banking collapsed. How could anyone save money if you could lose it all to a person on the street challenging you to a game of 'Decider' as it came to be known. Education tried to limp on for a few years. Many well meaning souls devoting their time to passing on and preserving the worlds knowledge. However like bankin...
“Look, the dog barked twice. You know what that means,” said Broom Closet Hernandez. “Fine.” Broom Closet didn't care how many times his boss barked.

I was sitting in the theatre, excited to see the newly released Scary Monster Movie. It was the first in the series, and so far it had a 79% on rotten tomatoes.

It had been a fluke, the first time: **Don't go in the basement!** My hand had been on the door knob. I definitely rolled my eyes - I might have even smirked. And as I searched for the origins of the warning, peering behind couches and curtain -- that's when the unholy screeching began from downstairs. And so I surviv...

[WP] A lone character is stranded on an island. It's been a struggle to survive and they've finally given up. While lying on the beach waiting to die, a bottle washes ashore. What's inside drastically changes their situation.
There were no tears left. I had given up, and the beach I now called home would double as my casket. Hunger was ripping me apart like a fast-acting cancer and my skin had become an ugly leather. It was time to give up. That was when I saw it. The now unfamiliar feeling of excitement washed over me. It had been ...
The sand burns my back, but I don't have the will to move. Scouring up at the scathing sun, I make my bed, I wait for death. I try to call out to the sky, to any who would listen.

     The space above the terrestrial planet Xal shimmered. Spacetime has no sound, no colour, and no surface, so it tore in half in silence. Neither of Xal’s two moons were on its perpetual nightside, so no distorted image of either satellite warned the reptile-like Xalians ...

It was finally over. The years of torment, guilt, being held emotionally hostage for the sake of the kids... John stood at the pearly gates, his reward for a life lived... about as well as he could live it, given the circumstances. He looked around, searching among the crowd of souls for the face he so desperately wan...
“M-Mary? Is that you?” “John I’ve waited so long for you! I’m so glad we’re together again!” Mary squeals as she runs to hug her husband after years of being apart.

[WP] This ancient prophecy of yours has neglected to tell you that you're going to fight FOUR dragons, not one. One is undead, one is a machine, one is your long lost mare cursed into the form of a monster, and the last is apparently a god.
John grinned as he removed his sword from last dead slimy zombie's brain. Or at least it felt like a slimy zombie. He did mention 'brains' multiple times, which is what zombies do. He inspected surroundings and walked a bit back, towards Sarah, his companion. She was staying back all this time. "Thanks for the help," ...
He stood on the corpse, shoulders heaving. Blood dribbled down his arm, staining the chainmail red. A dragon. He'd done it. He'd really done it. Almost despite himself, a grin spread across his face from ear to ear. The cries rang up from around him, the soldiers and mages scattered around the gorge cheering as h...

Brutal rain battered the windows outside in the harsh Colorado air. Jennifer moped down aisle seven, canned beans and turnips passed her by.

"Hey that girl you liked posted a new picture on Facebook," Crauh Crar whispered. I couldn't hear him like I could hear most people. He was a demon. He was my demon. His thoughts were my thoughts. I opened my eyes. He was operating my fingers. He selected the "love" react. Before he could complete the social media fa...
The sinking sensation was churning and churning trying to drag me down into the dark pit even lower than the sea-level here on land. There was a fight like there is a fight now, it is eternal, ever escalating, ever winning, ever loosing. Like a fire burning itself out, here was no salvation, a thousand oceans would ...

Cadwallon shifted his way through the crowd, there were far to many people in hell. He stood before the massive doors where death reigned over admittance.

*wake up!* I open my heavy eyelids slowly, gradually soaking in the eaves of the morning. The light scratches behind my blackout curtains. Must be daytime. Huh. *Finally!

“Shit, sorry!” the man said, though he was completely alone in the room. He’d dropped a spoon and apologised out of habit. He shrugged off the accident and chucked the dirtied spoon toward the sink before grabbing a clean one from the drawer. Into his mug he splashed a little milk, a teaspoon of sugar, and stirred it a...
Arthur considered the dire situation in which he found himself. He had been sitting on the throne for only a short time, and couldn't help but be impressed by how quickly the situation had degenerated.

[WP] Your dog digs in the same hole in your backyard everyday. Each day,the hole is getting deeper. Today, you find out it's for an underground bunker.
I’ve noticed that Spot has been digging the same hole for about 2 weeks. It‘s getting pretty deep, so I’ve started wondering what he’s been digging. I’ve decided it’s time to find out. “Spot, boy, whatcha diggin’?” I ask. “An underground bunker,” he replies nonchalantly. “Oh...” I respond, disappointed. Just my luck...
The hole has grown bigger. A large part of cement is visible in the bottom, leaning to look at it I can smell the wet earth and whatever the dog left down there. It feels like all sound is being sucked in near the black perfect circle. Could my dog -any dog- really do that? There are no signs of dirt near the open...

Staring at him I realized that Sparky was oddly receptive to what I was saying, he had stopped digging and was watching me closely. "I am sorry Terrance-" "What the Fuck!" I screamed, "y...

It started on Day 1, just two feet deep. Deep enough to hurt my leg, but no more. An innocent hole, from an innocent dog. But the dog kept digging, and digging some more. Day 2, as I recall, he killed a mole. It was larger now, the hole, not the mole. Day 4 and he won’t stop digging. I no longer believe it’s ...

[WP] You are on trial for attempting to assassinate the King. Unknown to anyone but you and His Majesty, you were actually trying to stop him from killing himself. When you request a trial by combat, he ceremoniously accepts. Your opponent? The King himself.
"Kill me, Larissa." Tears streamed down Aven's gaunt and pallid cheeks. "It *must* be you." The dagger slid from Larissa's trembling grip and *clinked* pommel-first into the ground, clattering across the flagstone floor of their royal bedchambers. She locked her pleading eyes on his, raising her hands to wipe his tea...

The trumpets are still ringing in my ears, the last notes of his triumphal entry shock my hearing as my eyes struggle to make sense of his presence in the fighting pit. But of course, this is what he wanted. This is what he has wanted for 7 years now, since the death of his family. This is why I find myself in this dus...
"Your Majesty... Please. Don't force me to kill you." The king took off his crown, and drew his sword. "I will not back out, Sir Faerin. Now have at thee." King Penrose dashed forward recklessly, as if inviting me to counterattack. I didn't. I deflected his blow, and stepped aside. He repeated his attack. I coul...

The king approaches you with determination in his eyes, and states "You'll never be able to defeat me when i reveal my penis to you!!!" I realized the king had me cornered, if I didn't cut off his penis everyone would think I have the gay! I swung my sword at him wildly but accidentally killed 45 citizens, 13 guar...

"I demand trial by combat!" My own words echoed back to me through time. How long had it been? Days...weeks perhaps? There's no reference point when you're deprived of light, food and company. Only the maddening, monotonous drip beyond my cell door gives any indication that time is in motion at all. The King accept...
"I accept. We duel at nightfall. The victor is crowned king." He said, his heavy dwarves voice boomed in the crowded room. The chains around my limbs and neck were pulled in one direction, forcing me to stand. A trial by combat? From the king who wants to die? I don't know what he is doing but I can't be king. I was ...

*What did I do to deserve this*, Jack thought to himself. *All I tried to do was save his life* "Do you have any preference for how your trial shall take place," asked the judge. *For this crime they thought I committed I will get killed.

Part 1 of 2 The thing that struck him first was the NOISE. He had sat in the stands of this arena a hundred times since he was a boy, but he never FELT the noise before. He could feel the grains of coarse sand vibrating between his toes. He had always assumed it would be soft. Like the sand near the shore. It wasn’t. ...

If you had told me that one day I would be locked in combat with King Lanther, the very person I had sworn to protect, I would have dismissed you as raving mad. I would have laughed at your suggestion that I would be *forced* into the duel, that I could neither defeat him nor surrender, and that death would be no solac...
We danced, pointing swords at each other, measuring our distance. King Nevonir had chosen a low stance, which was dangerous to inexpert swordsmen, because as the moment you overextended or missed your blow, you would have a sword rammed through your chest. I was known for my abilities with the sword and spear, yet at ...
[WP] Science has shown that everyone does, in fact, have a life purpose. A harmless test has been devised to determine what it is. You were skeptical, but, after seeing global happiness skyrocket, you get tested. Turns out your purpose simply reads: "To die".
"*Mary Einkel! You are going: To be a member of the team that cures cancer." "Brian O'Malley! You are going: To become a Michelin starred chef." "Joyce Lambert! You are going: To own a wildly successful business." "Ajit Sodhi! You are going: To be a famous singer.*"   My friends all gathered around each othe...
As I live here in a house another man built, under a blanket another has sewn, using technology others have engineered, reading words that other men wrote; I come to find my depression immeasurable. These men are of few and it is their lives that we come to cherish and believe. We use them as pedestals of examples, and...
[WP] the demon looked confused as he found himself summoned into a pink room, covered in princess posters and unicorn stickers. In front of him was a girl that looked about 5 years old, hugging a teddy bear and jumping up and down excitedly saying "yay yay yay, it worked!"
I was going about my daily life. Torturing the sinners, bringing Master Satan reports on the current experiment, trying to get dogs that go the hell. When I got a call. This was unusual. Satan’s voice boomed over the phone “Somebody’s attempting to summon me, but I am very busy at the moment could you please see what...
The incantation was read. The underworld shook as he was summoned. Through fire and brimstone, he rose and tore across the abyss. A vortex of fleshy colors swirled around him, formed, took shape and entered Him. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them he stood in a room that was far pinker than anything he had ever...

Lucifer shook his head of the strange visions. “This will not do, “he thought. And he looked down at the mortal child. Within seconds the girl was enveloped in spiders and insects. Black widows, ants, centipedes, and beetles blanketed the child as she collapsed to the floor. The lights dimmed as termites, roaches, and ...
