I sat in a chair hearing Kimmie getting yelled at by the man goblin. His heads yelling loudly. The first head was named Gobos. No one really paid any attention to Marsh. So, everyone just called the goblin body Gobos. A unique name.âKimmie, YOUâRE NOT LISTENING TO ME!â Gobos yelled.âWhy are you such a bully towards the new kids?â âIâm not!â Kimmie protests.âSheâs Kiinnâs daughter! She is the âchosen one.â Sheâs the one whoâs going to-'' Kimmie didnât finish her sentence. âYouâre jealous? Wow. Kimmie, thatâsâŠjust wow.â Gobos rubbed ...
I awoke in a lemon scented room. The kind of scent that youâd smell in hospitals. I asked where I was, even though I read the banner on the wall. In big black and purple letters it said, âInfirmaryâ. âAh my child. You are awake.ââWhat?â I said groggily. And thatâs when I saw the two headed green man. I screamed. But I then calmed down. I cleared my throat and apologized when I saw the sad expression on his face. âItâs okay, Many people do that when they first see me.ââNo offense, butâŠwhat are you?â âA man goblin. We arenâ...
The silver blade looked ice cold and razor sharp. I heard a âwowâ come out. This had to be a dream right? Shadow people? A magical rock that turned into a sword? This was quite physically impossible! The laws of the universe! Itâs all a dream. WAKE UP!I was in a screaming fit, yelling at myself to wake up. But I already did. This wasnât a dream. The shadow people andâŠmy dad? A God. One of the main Gods? This wasnât no fantasy shit.I got up even though my head was killing me. I lashed out on an angry spree of rage. Nobody takes my mom aw...
The time on my wristwatch read...11:58 am.Well shit. I'm late!I was riding my bike to my job interview, since mom couldn't drive me. It'd be easier if I was just 18 already. But no. I was a puny 16-and-a-half-year-old. First summer job. Or at least a soon-to-be job? I don't know, I was running 5 minutes late! That'll probably look bad for my record. Ouch.Thatâs when everything went dark. It was only seconds, But it really felt like hours. I woke up? What, was I dreaming? No!I tried to get up but fell back down. I tried to get up a few t...
Ten days agoâŠthe apocalypse alarms sounded, signaling for everyone to run. A creature of nightmares devoured my father that day. Then he attacked other people. They were like mindless zombies but with more...brains? Our farms were the breeding grounds. And we were the food.They ranged colorâs, each being more deadly than the last. Black, Orange, And Red. These were what we called Neo-world parasites. Nobody knew where they had come from or why they quickly evolved. The parasites took over every single living thing. Even plants...
Infinity. Thatâs what my mother would tell me every night as I went to bed. Iâd dream of far, far away galaxies and an alien species called: Humans. As far as I knew, they didnât know about my own âAlienâ species. A species called Ioniyions. On the planet of Ion, 3 million lightyears away from the humans. The humans lived on a planet called: Earth.Weâve been watching them for millions of years. They recently had invented something you might know as time travel and many other things like the reverser. One would restore your youth. But our tec...
I tried to gasp for air, but the waves kept crashing against my body. I was being pushed under the current, not being able to breathe. Seawater rushed down my throat and into my lungs. Everything burned. I started to scream,"HELP! SOMEBODY! HELP!"Eventually I got enough air to swim under water. I couldn't find Gianna. I swam farther down and found her sinking. I almost screamed again. I grabbed her arm and eventually wrapped her around my shoulders. When I got her to the surface of the water and tried kicking the boat. The boat eve...
(TW: Mentions of attempted suicide) I was only in grade 7. 12 years old...and already...I have a crush. I went to Crison Creek Middle School in Oregon. I was new to America, and I was about to celebrate my birthday. My 13th birthday! I know I was going through puberty and stuff, but I didn't know that it would come with emotional mood swings. My crush was this girl named Hallie Morison. Having a crush was normal...but for me...I guess it wasn't. I wasn't supposed to like her. Heck, I wasn't supposed to like girls at all! Because I am a gir...
(I had a great time writing this! It made me so happy. Usually I hate romance things, but this has changed my perspective. It's cheesy and cute. I hope you enjoy reading this! I love you all and happy writing) TW: Kissing I wasn't that "Electronic-kind-of-gal." I grew up with nothing much but the outdoors. I love the woods and small cottages. Eletronic's though? It wasn't my thing, y'know? But I wanted to fit in with the rest of my classmates at college. The newfound obsession called, "Email." Electronic Mail, in case you didn't know...
CONTENTS: THIS STORY CONTAINS MENTIONS OF THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY! SO, IF YOU'RE HOMOPHOBIC THEN I ASK THIS NICELY, PLEASE LEAVE. THIS STORY HAS BEEN REPLAYED IN MY HEAD BUT WITH DIFFERENT CHARACTERS. Enjoy! (I changed the characters a lot!) P.S: Crison Creek is a fictional state in the U.S that I made years ago. It was the first of the three days of practice training for Crison Creek's Go-Kart Grand Prix. I'm 16 years of age and a professional racer for USPKS. Not, to brag but I'm a three-time winning champion. But that was years ago. I...
The sun penetrated through the trees, their shadows dancing in the warm glow. I followed the path made of cobblestone and saw the setting sun getting lower with every tick of a clock. It was getting dark here in Crison Creek. And with every second counting down, it was getting more dangerous.The most peaceful place on Earth: Crison Creek Oregon.Well. Thatâs the way it used to be. Before the United States were attacked by foreign countries. These countries were international hackers, terrorists, some of them were even traitors. The United Sta...
