TRADITION

Josiah Mporampora

Submitted to Contest #263

With only a snap from my mighty fingers, the final enemy stronghold would fall in a “pillar” of flame. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!For centuries, my kingdom, the powerful and imposing kingdom of Ragnus, battled with the feeble and pompous kingdom of Numori. No longer would we allow them to raise their noses at us. No longer shall we be forced to adopt their “modern way of living.” What matters most in this world is power! I will admit, there was a time where their military was a threat. Their ability to control and manipul...

STEERING

Josiah Mporampora

Submitted to Contest #260

“SHE’S COMING! EVERYONE REPORT TO YOUR STATIONS NOW!”No one had ever seen the famously calm general so riled up. It did, however, make sense that today would be the day that his men would see him in a panic. Despite his words, his loyal soldiers stayed where they were. They would stare in silent shock from across and beside the central table in the command room. Finally, his lieutenant spoke up. “Sir, if she is coming, then she is coming for you.

It was as if everyone at the same time began to give up on life. The fire that burns in us to prosper, thrive--to simply live…it would dwindle in all humans no matter their background. My friends were just talking about how great it is that crime, especially violent, is at an all time low. What they didn’t know before I op...

REAL MAGIC

Josiah Mporampora

Submitted to Contest #176

At this point in my life, there is very little that brings me any real joy. In my younger years, I was always so optimistic and filled with hope. Time on this Earth, however, would prove to wear those naïve feelings down and cast them into the wind. They say people usually find happiness in things like family, money, love and passion. With all of my family at peace, my wife gone in the wind and already quitting my miserable IT job, my only source of happiness is my passion. My passion…as a magician. “Is…this ...

"Karma."

Josiah Mporampora

"Karma" As with any high school, those at the top of the social rung have the most influence amongst their peers. Some strive for more than simple influence. Some…desire complete control. A group of three would make up the most popular students at Polaris High School. Fey would be the athlete. Track, tennis, basketball--there were very few sports she did not play. Dom was the brains. There was no subject that he feared. Zack, the last member, was known for his style and good looks. The entire...
