“It will simply lead you through the temple” Avi had said and given Benedict Lambert his infuriating smile which suggested he could never be wrong. Ben looked down to the small robot that lay in the palm of his hand. The small touch screen surface on its back screaming at him to be used but going against everything that he had trained for. What is the point in becoming a treasure Hunter when a robot does it for you? Where is the element of danger? The doorway in front of him was intimidating, the jagged stone blocks that had been...

Did I feel bad for writing that personal column in the paper? Of course I did! But do I regret doing it? I suppose a little bit now that I have told my lady that I am heading out with friends for the evening. I have been sitting here for ten minutes waiting for my date to arrive.

I can hear your footsteps coming down the stairs, they seem slow and laboured as though you have had a heavy night, as usual. My hands twitch in anticipation as I consider and reconsider how I should approach the situation. Your feet hit the tiled floor of the hallway and I hear you enter the kitchen and rummage ...

‘Come on it’s not that bad’ Phillip said. He smiled happily to Andrew who sat cross legged on the bedroom floor at the foot of the bed. Phillip was two years older than Andrew, his face had started to grow spots upon it and a few new sprouts of hair poked out beneath his chin and long nose. ‘I just don’t think it’s a good idea’ Andrew replied, he wrapped his arms around himself as though he was being cradled. Andrew had a round face and dark hair which flopped down to one side. ‘There really isn’t much to it, it’s like gardening’...
