Alphonse Malmaduke, vagrant, intellectual, and non-human. They were beginning to pop up everywhere now, but he'd decided to keep his cover just a bit longer. He was a Doctor, not a soldier, and the opportunity to observe it all from the otherside, well it wasn't one to be likely passed, and that it wasn't. 2 years of p...

[WP] An alien force prepares to invade Earth, write from the perspective of the invading forces commanding officer.
“Please read back the supply list,” I commanded Mas Kasier, and she bowed her head respectfully, her four slender arms tapping out the command codes against a holographic readout. Multiple bubbles emerged from the console with swarms of information in our visually spiraling language, as well as blue-prints and data rea...
I've had a similar idea some time ago. Wakes up in a desert area, close to a gas station. No memory of this location. Enters the gas station, but the people there greet him only with fear and horror. They start to get aggressive and he runs out. Near the gas station there is a car. Gets in. Starts the car, drives a...

“Don’t get me wrong: I have nothing against humanity. Why, some of my best friends are humans. It’s just that there’s no talking with you people. We get together, we agree to terms, we sign a contract and then half of you go and break it within days of signing. Well, we don’t really work like that.” I shivered with ...

Gork sighed and turned away from the final Battle Readiness report towards the large, concave window. It framed a small blue-green orb, hanging apparently motionless in the void. It seemed so placid, so calm. *They always do from this distance,* thought Gork. He knew that life on the surface of this world would be ...

As I examined the files, I found myself concerned. The indigenous civilisation was very advanced compared to our most recent adversaries. A disturbing amount of time and resources had been placed into the development of fission weapons. It was clear that their development was guided by war, as these Homo Sapiens - the ...

"It is not who you were born, but who you choose to be that matters." Kal'Ethon, Imperitus Secondus of the Fourth Expeditionary Fleet spoke, projected into the view screen implanted in the retinas of forty thousand of the Homeworld's finest warriors. They did not need his words to be brave, they were the best. Hand cho...

Write about anything--their moment of realization, their reflections, what they do in the aftermath, what they think about 10 years in the future after the cult is long gone, etc. Completely up to you!
[WP] A cult leader realizes she/he is wrong about everything.
“My Children, please…” I began. But I was drowned out, ignored. Forty-eight years, for nothing. It was my decision that had done it. But I saw no other way. Thomas had been with me the longest, but he was a devotee, not a leader. Emma was wise, but lacked a blooming of genuine compassion. Jeremy was kind, but n...
Commenting to say I'm using Jim Jones for this one when I get home and if any of you **steal** my idea I will frown at the computer screen *heavily*.
What is the one phrase that would push someone - a functional and solid member of society - from the parapets of sanity, and into the dark pits of madness? Is it some news about their health? Perhaps a call from the police? Is it something their child says? Or perhaps, it's what is never said. The possibilities are end...

I used to be a normal man, the unassuming kind, A guy that oft’ kept to himself within his simple mind. Until the day I met that girl, down by the riverside; She opened up her heart to me, and soon became my bride. Our wedding night was wonderful, no other night compares, And after all the guests had left, I whisk...
It was completely on a whim that I went into the fair. It was a deviation from my usual routine: wake up alone, go to work alone, come home and eat frozen pizza. The shabbily dressed fortune teller in the dim, dusty tent turned over a card and told me, "No one can judge your deeds in this life, no matter how terrible t...

As I crawled from the flaming wreckage, I could smell the burning flesh of my wife and children, and see their mangled remains. Once extricated, I dragged my shattered body towards the other car, which had upended in the roadside ditch. Its driver came bounding toward me, unharmed and unaffected. The reek of booze over...
"What are you, but skin, blood and bones? Thoughts, feelings and emotions all tied up in a gooey, nature freindly disposable package. What makes you better than me? Different? You defend this city. They worship you. I prune this city and THEY HATE ME!" "Why do I kill? Why do I maim, torture and use my cell phone in th...

I remember it quite clearly you know. As the bills started to stack up, and the hours got cut, and the world laughed at me something magical began. I laughed back. Suddenly everything made sense with the simple realization that there is no right and wrong. *There's only what you're capable of getting away with.*
