Submitted to Contest #94

WARNING: Before you read this story, there are mentions of blood and death. I was lazily sitting on my couch, looking up at the wood ceiling. I was 22, and I live in a cabin. I moved away from my home town, all because of the death of my best friend. He died because I dared him to do a stunt, and him being a daredevil he did. Except it didn't go as planned. It all started 2 years ago. July 18 2008. I opened my phone to only see 8 missed phone calls from my mother, I could feel tears stinging at the back of my eyes. I looked over at my...

“I'm not one of them” by Abby Burton

Dear Diary, Mother and father are sending me away to a far away place. They said it was better for me and that I could have friends, but that is probably not true because 1. I don't know how to make friends and 2. I never fit in. No matter where I went I was an outsider my whole family are outsiders. That is because we are humans, but me, I am a human yes, but I also can turn into animals and other objects, I was always the person people would call a rare breed. That is why I can never fit in, people think i'm cursed or a bad omen so I don'...

“Diseases ” by Abby Burton

It was only October when the breaking news came. It had said that there was no more cures to save people from any diseases. I was only eight at the time but now i'm thirteen. I live alone because my whole family died. And I was left alone. Every since that day, I had never really seen people leave there houses. Anything you need, a drone would usually come and deliver it. But I never liked that idea, and as a rule no one was supposed to go out of there houses. We have to do our jobs inside, we can't even have any pets. It's sad in a way, bec...
