[WP] Dinner party guests realize they can hear each other's thoughts, but only while seated at the table.
Dave slunk halfway into the chair, scowling as he pulled out his phone. *God, I don't wanna be here.* Dave nodded along as though agreeing with himself. He checked his Facebook and Instagram, humming to drown out the sea of conversation floating in from the kitchen. A quick glance up. He locked eyes with Larry at th...
It was instant. Far more instant than what Mr Sheffield had expected. It was a sudden influx of thoughts, ideas, hopes, aspirations and fears...which is what you'd expect from this particular table. He saw it on the faces of the other guests, they would have all been informed of their hosts choice in furniture but it i...
[WP] Aliens plead with the government to have their existence exposed to the public. Government says no again.
"We respectfully request that the public at large is identified of our existence." This message had come through the official channels, from the Moix-Thetais. Third message this month. We at the agency had already told them that due to the physiology of the species, official public identification would be impossible. ...
The chopping of helicopter blades sliced the Nevada night, the only sounds in the silence. The helicopter touched down in between several tall hills, invisible to any madmen willing to wander that far into the desert.

“We still cannot comprehend” Ambassador Carpenter sat back, hand going up to rub his forehead. It wouldn’t help the incipient headache he could feel coming on, but it made him feel a bit better. He caught himself right before he removed the tinted goggles that protected his eyes. “Look. We cannot reveal you to the...

A shaky knock at the door came on the hour, as it always did. John looked at his partner, who had a demonic smile on his face. "Goddamn man, lay off the poor little fucks would you?" "No... I don't think I will." Kevin grabbed his truncheon and yanked the door open. A small glowing humanoid stood at the door of wha...

The night of our wedding, after the party had died, Kelly and I sat in the confetti, spilled drinks and scuff marks of the now dimly lit dance floor and contemplated one another. I still remember; her eyes a liquid blue, always searching, examining, trying hard to see behind my own. It was this that first made me lov...
Out of the 30 who escaped the farm there were only two of us left. Devon lead the way. He had the tracking and hiking knowledge now. He had gotten it from Harry, who in turn had received it from Fran. He led us between rows of pines, down the hill and to a small stream. Out of breath we collapsed at the bank. ...

I was only 8 when I gave my first memory. Such a young age- most people waited until 16 for their first transfer; it was much safer, you could be properly trained, and you were considered to be more responsible for any memory loss you later regretted. Now, I can't remember exactly what it was that made the summer so n...

"I don't have much left to trade." The old man studied me silently, toothpick hanging idly out of his mouth, as if gauging just how much he should charge for his lesson. The longer his assessment went on, the more likely it was that he'd turn me away empty handed. His reputation for being a tough trader to satisfy w...
"No!" "Stop!" "You can't do this!" Screams rippled along the line of men and women, chained together in single file by a long iron vein running between their waists. It fed into clasps around their wrists, while rugged men with AK-47s and green bulletproof vests rode alongside in black, uncovered Jeeps. A few of t...
[WP] A conversation between strangers at a bus stop.
"It's always raining when I have to take the bus." Peter said to no one in particular. He hugged his coat close about him and raised his collar against the misting rain blowing in to the shed where he waited. "Could be worse." Sasha mumbled, stamping her feet to keep the blood circulating. "I don't see how." He repli...

Sergei sobs gently. I can't see the tears running down his face, his visor obscures that. But I can hear him quietly sobbing.

It was 1000 GMT when the signals went dead. 0600 New York time, where Jim grew up. He wondered now, fleetingly, if he would ever see the Burroughs again. If he never made it back, he’d never see his father’s grave either. Thankfully he passed away a couple of months ago, and did not have to go through the trial by fire...

When the klaxon had stopped blaring, the crew wandered to the Earthside cupola, somberly watching the indigo and malachite land as it flowed past. The ICBMs streaked across the darkening horizon, fading away as they dropped through the exosphere. "Impact in 10 seconds." A man sobbed softly. Peter squeezed Valeriya's ha...

Silence was my first clue. Instead of the usual chaotic jubilee greeting me at the door, there was just a dusty, entombed silence. I slipped my designer sunglasses into my jacket pocket, set down my nearly empty briefcase, and craned my neck for a view of the steps. "Hello? Where's my fanfare?" I tease, calling do...

The minutes ticked by today at the office as I shuffled through more paperwork but I’m finally pulling into the driveway at home.

I came back from my trip expecting the usual argument with the wife, about who I was with or if I was cheating on her, always ending with me telling her that we can see each others' darkest secrets and her stopping instantly with a grim look on her face.

Travis was used to smelling blood. A lot of peoples' secrets involved bloodshed in some form or fashion. Most that did involve blood were from self harmers. A whiff of iron followed by brief flashes of open wounds either on wrists, thighs, and on rare occasion, genitalia. Travis was used to that. He wasn't, however, u...

I passed another stream of obscenities. An older man, nearing the age of retirement, was in a heated discussion with a boy young enough to be his grandson. I caught the words "liberal", "hippy", "twat", and "retard" before I walked on. Political discussion were near-impossible to have. The "sides" would eventually ...

I'm in over my head. I mean, is this girl really flirting with me? She uses her left hand to pull back her dark brown hair behind her ear, revealing small silver earrings.

Her eyes twinkled softly in the moonlight on the veranda.

Rosa kneeled in front of the folding chair, tying a man’s ankles to it with twine. She cocked her head to examine the knots.

The classical symphonie traced through the room; Carl Vine's Sonata No. 1, her favorite. Only as usual..she didn't hear it. Her mind was racing and overwealmed with the task at hand. Her young and handsome guest was sprawled out before her on the marble flooring. It was a lie, though. Killing someone was never 'easier'...
First time posting on WritingPrompts, constructive criticism would be* highly appreciated. The sun was in full force that day, unhindered by a cloudless baby blue sky, drawing the august haze out of the ground that turned everything into a shimmering panoramic mirage.

The first time I caught a glimpse of Him was behind the tool shed when Grampa's heart beat for the last time. Granny shooed me away to call for help, and as I trotted toward the house, I craned my neck to see the body. Instead, my gaze met a pair of piercing blue eyes that sent a cold jolt of desire through my thirteen...
She felt guilty that she felt so happy. But tonight was her night, after all. The white was now stained red, as he had told her. Jason was on the floor, and she felt accomplished. Seeing Death once was not enough, and hey, what's a better way to dump a fiancé? She much rather go for sullen cheekbones than a blob of fat...

I expected this. I even anticipated this, but I was nevertheless scared. The straps on my arms hurt a bit. They tied me too tight, but I didn’t think it mattered anymore. Not much did at this point.

The serial killer inaccurately called the Black Widow, aka the Dame (or Diva) of Death, waited in silence. It wouldn’t be long before *he* showed up.

The blonde/ blue eyed woman appeared as a goddess to him. Everything that he had ever done was motivated in trying to make her happy.

The first time was blue. Fatal car accident. Supposedly fatal car accident. She appeared blue, but as he approached, she turned. "...That's new."

Just as their lips were ready to touch, Anne Leone raised the blade to the man’s throat. It went through easy, just as expected.

She had seen him only once before when she was 13 years old. That was enough.

Rosa kneeled in front of the folding chair, tying a man’s ankles to it with twine. She cocked her head to examine the knots.

Mindy giggled. "My love," she teased in a sing-song tone. The mist formed a figure in front of the newly dead body. Mindy smiled as the figure of her lover appeared.

In a darkened bedroom, a woman is panting from exertion, sweat beading on her forehead and mixed with her light brown hair. Anxiously, she wipes the perspiration from her forehead and does an impromptu styling of her hair. Her light green eyes scan the room, waiting for her lover to return, finally taking in the bedroo...
[WP] A woman falls in love with Death and commits murder countless times just to catch a glimpse of him.
She held the dying woman's hand. The woman, old, sick, in pain, and lonely looked up at the pretty red head. "Thank you," she whispered. Her voice was weak, but happy - hopeful. The young lady smiled and held the older woman's hand tighter. "My pleasure," she responded. The sick woman, the tired woman, closed her ey...

[WP] A woman falls in love with Death and commits murder countless times just to catch a glimpse of him.

I loved him, that walking pain. The kind that would come after strangulation and let-free blood. He who would warm my heart. Though his: cold. I loved him as I tore through the spine of an elderly man, I loved him as he kissed me in those few moments between a mother who cried at the way her children died. At first, ...
Her heart raced as she waited, her breath warm against the wardrobe door she was pressed behind. Time stood almost still as each footstep echoed from the wooden floor. It had been so long. Too long. She needed to see him, to feel him again. Unable to wait any longer she put the plan she'd rehearsed countless times in...

She stood alone on the roof. The wind blew faintly, whistling through the bulletholes in a final protest. A smile threatened to leap forth, but she kept it in check. This was the best part. The temperature dropped, and the surrounding light seemed to dim. There he was. He strode confidently among the bodies, leading t...

"I just didn't figure you'd be... you know... handsome! Has anybody told you you have a very seductive voice? It's like velvet..." "How do you think I beckon those on the edge to the other side?"

“He is beautiful. No matter that I never heard his voice, nor saw his face, shrouded in the shadow of his hood as it always was. His beauty lies not in countenance of face, nor sound of tongue. For me, his beauty is beholden to his stride, graceful and purposeful to his grim duty. It is in the gift that he brings, in ...
