To Be or Not To Be

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #176

The room smelled of berries, dyes, acid, and moss. The wooden table that sat in the center of the room was covered from corner to corner. She spun around in a giddy circle. Flute of champagne in one hand, a glass flask filled with purple liquid in the other. Sitting on the table across from her was her small stuffed unicorn, Auni. Conveniently pronounced “a uni”. She abruptly stopped and faced Auni. Her face scrunched up. The potion almost flying out of her hand. “Don’t look at me like that!” She yelled and pointed with the flute h...

Love, Lust, & Luxury

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #159

In my chambers I walk to the ATM, Awareness TeleMonitor. The balance of my essence in the Universe is lower than usual. Something is off, but I am unsure of what. I call my siblings in to inform them. I have a plan and I need their advice. I need to understand what has happened. “Are you sure about this?” My middle sibling asks me. “I feel like I need to,” I replied. “And of all days, today seems like a great day to manifest.” I turn to my youngest sibling who sits in a chair across the space. They pi...

The Devil's Rise

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #130

***These names may sound familiar but the story and the characters are all fiction. Clouds of flour filled the space and covered different parts of their bodies. The shop’s windows were open to the eternal-Summer breeze. People that walked by would look in quickly, entranced by the smell and vibe, but nervous to actually go in. Lucifer walked around the space in his white attire and black apron. He moved a pan from the counter to the oven. His forehead h...

The Real Thing

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #128

The steam from the pot misted my face and lightly coated my beard. I poured the hot liquid into her ‘Unicorns Are Mystical Like Me” mug and the “Beardlicious” mug she bought me for my birthday last year. The water seeped through the bags of my homemade blend of herbs. We have tea every time she comes to my place. Though her aura warms me up from being near her, it is a bonus to feel the well-steeped elixir coat my insides. I handed her the mug of ...

The Intuitionist

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #127

The day began just past dawn’s break. The Mother Sun beamed from the North, the Daughter Sun from the Northeast. The people of Zeni made their way from one place to the next on the transportation ladders. Like roads from the old world, these hung at different levels from the ground up. One could walk one ladder from the surface to the 34thlevel in ten minutes, which is where she peered out of her office’s window—a cup of mint tea in her hand. Her first ...

Authentic

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #126

Amber stared at the ceiling watching the rain hit the skylights. The mimicked the feeling she couldn’t display and felt so deeply in the pit of her heart chakra. She would have to leave soon despite the fatigue. Rolling over in the condominium she rented, she thought over the last week of the conference. That awakened a soft smile. At the end of the year, she would go away for a week-long conference for the last six years. All week she met new people in her field of work and got a chance to see friends she made from previous years. This was...

A Dream Turned Reality

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #125

Drips of perspiration slid from her palms to the floor. Her skin was flush. It could rival the sun’s warmth. Misty eyes hid images in front of her. She blinked to bring them in focus. She wavered in her stance, losing her balance. “Are you alright?” The young man who was no less than ten years her junior stood beside her, holding her up. She could hear the tiny voices murmuring in his right ear. His youthful face watched her with concern. Once she regained stability, he let her go. “Would you like some water, ma’am?” Ma’am. H...

The Flower & The Moon

Goddess V

Submitted to Contest #86

Her lungs expanded in a way that she had never known they could. The feel of the flowing breeze brushed against her cheek. She smiled at the whisper of words the wind said as it reassured her. Standing in the middle of the park, people rushed about enjoying the festival. Above her head, the giant orange sign read “New Valley’s Spring Equinox Gala”. She smiled at the new possibilities of what the next 12 hours would allow for her to experience. Her heart fluttered like the wings of a hummingbird. Her smile rivaled the sun’s mid-morning...
