“The Twisted Shack” by Connor H

Submitted to Contest #60

“Hey, hey calm down. We have a lovely little pen for you. There are plenty of other people for you to socialise with.” The figure carefully marched over the second smaller one moving slowly as she was trying hard to get away. “I’d rather be left alone and survive in the real world, stupid Zombie.” “Now that is rude, we prefer to be called alternatively alive. We don’t call you humans, do we?” The larger clearly annoyed. As they marched forwards chattering other voices could be heard. “To be honest I don’t care, I would rather not be ...

“A breakdown ” by Connor H

Submitted to Contest #57

Jacob thought it would never come to this. Changing everything. Ruining their lives. But now things had truly become unbearable and something had to change. Putting fingers to keyboard he hesitated a brief second typing out the contents of his new will.

He spoke to himself as he so often did these last few weeks. It wouldn’t be the cancer that killed him but the loneliness. How he wis...

The smell and body of a cadaver would linger in the minds for months. I’ve been in here for hours too, scared to go outside, the blizzard thra...

“Tears of a titan” by Connor H

Submitted to Contest #51

I eat, work, save, sleep repeat. Eat, work, save, sleep and repeat. The same process 365 days, 52 weeks. I get no breaks, no life and no enjoyment. As a child I thought having superpowers would be cool. I could be anyone I wanted, and I choose to be a superhero. I would be able to fly wherever I want, save people and everyone would love me, and I would ride a wave of euphoric emotions all day long. And yet, no one told me just how boring and tame it would get. My powers no longer seem dope or get me as excited as they once did. One reas...

“Lonely prey” by Connor H

Submitted to Contest #51

Walking up to their hideout clearly took a toll out of the couple as the larger figure was doubled over breathing heavily. The smaller and more energetic was gesturing frantically that they must keep moving. What was being said was unknown, unfortunately they were too far away to hear any words, yet it the words seemed to be working as the larger figure begins to move slowly whilst holding their side. As they stride forward unawares that they are being watched each starts to rumble in their bag showing the other what they have. Food, books, ...
