The staff, weary but satisfied, congregated near the exit, awaiting the final words from their leader.Chef Elena stood at the heart of the kitchen, her pristine white coat marked with the remnants of a hard night's work. Her eyes, tired but twinkling with pride, scanned the room, taking in the faces of her team. "Everyone, gather around!" she called out, her voice carr...

“Elara's Web” by KG Green

Submitted to Contest #215

On a tempestuous weekend, four friends – two boys and two girls- found themselves in a remote holiday home far removed from the city's hustle and bustle. The house, nestled amidst a dense forest, was surrounded by towering trees and echoed with the wilderness's sounds. The home's main allure was Elara, a sophisticated artificial intelligence system controlling every home aspect. "Hi, welcome to your stay," Elara chimed in her synthetic yet charming voice that echoed throughout the house. "You'll never want to leave..." The friends shared a l...

The hot sun was high in the clear sky, casting a merciless heat over the vast desert expanse of the Wild West. There were cowboys, outlaws, and a relentless pursuit of manifest destiny in the 1860s. It was also a time when the unimaginable was about to become a harsh reality. In a blinding flash of light, a strange craft raced across the sky, heading directly for the Earth's surface. Unknown to the people below, a hunter from another planet had abruptly crash-landed in the middle of the desert. The smoke and dust plume that the explosion...

The sight of James leaning on the counter surprised him. Between the two of them, Brian always woke first. “Why are you up at five in the morning?” he broke the collar of his uniform.

Submitted to Contest #201

I stare at the cracked mirror in the dimly lit backstage room, trying to recognise the person staring back at me. The once vibrant eyes now carry a weariness that no amount of success can erase. My name is Jake, and I've poured every ounce of my being into becoming a rock star, but lately, I've begun to question if it was worth it. Our band, "The Fallen," was born in the dingy basement of a rundown apartment building. We were just a group of misfits with a shared dream and an insatiable hunger for music. Countless hours were spent rehearsi...
