“The Train Back To The Old Life” by Cooper Armstrong

   TW: Contains some transphobia and violence. Jonah James looked out the window of his private box on the Lemeny Night Roller. This was a train the society often used to transport their assets across the country while also making profit and financially supporting them and their endeavors in secret. The rolling of the hills reminded Jonah of the slopes back home, and it reminded him of ...

“William Earth And His First Recipe” by Cooper Armstrong

    I ran out of the school like a bat outta heck as soon as the bell rang! I kicked the door open cause I was so excited! I jumped on my bike and pedaled as fast as I could. I was a little too big for the bike but I didn’t care. I was going to get to my family’s restaurant as fast as I could. Oh, to catch you up; over the years through small jobs and many loans from different banks, my dad reopened the family business k...

“The Last Piano” by Cooper Armstrong

    It’s possible to loathe someone you’ve never met. It’s possible to loathe them with a passion even though you have never seen their face.      My name is Otis Barnes. If you asked me my story you’d have to sit there for a few hours. I’ve been almost everywhere and I’ve done almost everything. I’ll admit, I’ve lived a pretty good life and I’m only thirty three.      My current occupation right now is as ...

“The Cavern Tavern Inn” by Cooper Armstrong

     Dear Dr. Bridge,      In your last letter, you asked for me to give you a full account of the last few days that I spent at home. I don’t understand why, but since you’re my therapist, I’m sure you have a perfectly good reason. Maybe if I explain to you my origins, it might help you to help me cope with my problems. You see, I was born in San Francisco California. I didn’t live there...

“Shatter Gets Axed” by Cooper Armstrong

    As Carli ran off in the Seattle snow, I felt my heart break. I then felt my ribs do the same as Wolfie squeezed the life out of me.  Let me explain.     When I was ten, I found a mask.      This mask put me into the body of a baby in the Stone Age. Since then, I have reincarnated over and over and over again. I have lived many lives over the years but three things have remained the same....

“Carli Evans and The Bomb That Got Through Security” by Cooper Armstrong

   When you’re an HOU agent under the age of eighteen there are certain things you must do. One of these tedious things is giving up your winter breaks to train with other under age agents in one of many undisclosed locations. In fact, they are so undisclosed, that if I were to type any location within a five mile radius of any of them, a sniper would shoot me dead from the building next to me. He doesn’t believe I know he is there because I came to a ski resort in colorado to escape the eyes of that paranoid organization s...

“Awaken ” by Cooper Armstrong

     The girl opened her eyes and sat up straight with heavy breath. Her memory was foggy. She touched her neck which had stitches going all the way around to connect her head to the rest of her body. Then, she suddenly knew three things she had not known two seconds before. Her name was Tania, she was nineteen, and she had died. She looked around at the unfamiliar environment she found herself in. It seemed to be a ma...

“Shatter Gets Sidetracked” by Cooper Armstrong

Ok, where do I start?  I should probably start with my little hobbit hole that I call a home. Well actually, I have a bunch of 'em all over the world. That morning I woke up in one of my favorites: an abandoned cigar factory in Moscow. I looked at my watch, saw the time, and shot up out of my snowy bed under the hole in the roof. That December day was important to me. No, it wasn’t Christmas and no, it w...

“They Came In The Storm” by Cooper Armstrong

“My Friend Who Was Raised By Monsters” by Cooper Armstrong

    I’m gonna tell you a story you won’t believe. The only reason I believe it is because I lived it. It’s a crazy story but it’s true.

The thing about Waco is that it’s the kind of city where e...

“Johnathan Earth and A Meal That Truly Mattered” by Cooper Armstrong

Submitted to Contest #100

   “Avus, what are we?”   The old man looked away from the counter and the dishes he was preparing on the granite countertop of his family restaurant and looked down at the small child looking back at him, chuckled and said, “Why, my leonis parum, we’re human! Why do you ask?” The boy began to frown as his head began to droop and his eyes moved their gaze down to his little feet standing in the white tiled flooring. “Well,” he said, “some of the other kids at school today were asking what I was.” “Huh”...
