Grayson found comfort in the hum of the on-board motors beneath the ship, the sound of the waves breaking across the navy colored hull, and…

“If both samples were similar enough to one another, then I could immediately rule out starving them to death. A single creature could cannibalize itself, the heal damage until the natural end of its lifespan. If they have a natural end point to their lifespan. The most direct route would be to immolate the entire quarantine zone. But that’s not considering their mental structure-” “Mental structure,” Alois repeated as his eyes grew wider. “What do you mean by that?” The Professor shook the…

The war ended long ago, but nobody told us. Henriquez had been injured in our last supply run, and it has been weeks since our last hope of rescue. Resources are little to none, and we are beginning to fear that our next detour might be our last. As we walked the desolate streets of the once named city of love, I could feel a chill in the air, the wind whipping at our sides. The blue sky then disappeared into a deep grey ash as the dust began to surround us. “Clear out!” “The building’s…

I woke up around 7 p.m to a mysterious sound coming from my window, so I called my friend, Gilbert. “Hey, Gilbert,” I whispered, “Can you come over to my house? I keep hearing something, and I don’t know what it is.” He got here and after we called Robert. We went outside to where my window was and nothing was there I was horrified. We went back inside, Robert, Gilbert and I were talking about what we were going to do today. We thought about going to north central park around 12 a.m. Time…

Freshmeat Everybody goes through things in life that they don't forget, even if it's good or bad. One of those memories is the first day of high school. I don't remember it vividly, but I do remember all the nervousness and not knowing where to go. The night before school started, I was just worried about what to wear, if a had everything I needed, and well scared to see if I would sleep through my alarm.

The Deputy sat quietly in the corner of the bathroom, knees tucked into her chest, as she looked at the door with a frown. She tried to make herself as small as possible while she hid in the already small bathroom. She knew it was coming. A few days before the present, Rook had smelled the change of pheromones and scents that he produced, indicating that his rut was close. Both of them knew it. Rook had locked herself away from the man whom she had been fighting just a short few weeks ago. She…

Beep! Beep! Beep! As I twist and turn in bed and glimpse down at the luminous phone in my pitch black bedroom. While picking my phone up, I see that Tristan messaged me and said "Get up! I'll be there in 5 minutes to pick you up! The waves are firing!", I instantly look towards the clock to see that I overslept. I immediately fling myself out of bed and rush into my still dark bathroom as I quickly brush my teeth and put my bathing suit on. I run over to the window to see if Tristan is here yet,…

I was in the forest, training while plotting my next attack. My plan was to assassinate the king of Bridgeport. A few months ago he slaughtered all of the young children I was going to train, he even burnt down their dormitories. Taking something from the world’s greatest assassin would come at a cost, a life for a life to put it simply. My question was, how do I do it? His kingdom was surrounded by an impenetrable wall, with guards everywhere covered in head to toe with diamond armour. I would…

The Runners It was December 24, 2256, Caleb looked out of his window at the House, a light gray building that young boys stayed in for 14 years, at the morning sun and dew that had collected on the long grass overnight. He brushed his dirty blonde hair out of his sapphire blue eyes to see that all the boys around him had their light, gray smocks on.

Three kids wandered along a disappearing path in the middle of a dense forest. These children looked strange. The tallest girl, Anna, wore black and white on either half of her body. The other girl wore a plain white mask over her face. Her name was Persephone. There was only one boy in the group, his name was Shad. “Where are we?” Anna murmured. She looked back to consult Persephone and Shad, but they both shrugged. “I guess we should just keep walking then.” The kids walked in a straight line…
