“Rough Seas” by Moon Lion

"I'm thinking, that this island here.." "No, no, ye slimy bitch, this is the thir' island ye'v led us to! D'you know w'ere it is or not?" "Excuse me, you savage moron, but I don't see pointing us anywhere unless the lost gold is at the bottom of a rum bottle!" "Shaddup, the captain knows I be an 'onest man, unlike you, blasted witch." Captain Dreyfus rolled his eye...

“The Map Room” by Moon Lion

“It doesn’t count if you’re already planning your defeat.” Simi said, her arms crossed. I took a controlled inhale, breathing in the anxiety, coffee-infused smell that made up the map room. So many victories had been decided here. "Seriously?" I didn't take my eyes off the map, determined not to let her shake my stance. This was happening whether or not a certain elf want...

“Au Naturel” by Moon Lion

I raced down the street, yelling apologies over my shoulder as I bumped into human trick-or-treaters. I was late as all hell and knew that Miria would lose it. Regrettably, this wasn't even a simple coven meeting I was late for, this was the big one. The-once-a-millenia all witches of North America meeting that had life or death consequences. I finally reached the park, hideously ou...

“Lost in the Woods” by Moon Lion

"Good luck. This time is one unlike any other, be very careful of the magic that lingers. And watch the time, you fool. There's no coming back if this thing isn't opened by midnight." The assassin Leonardo snorted as he remembered Ledda's final warning, and the warmth of her fingers as she pressed the portal key into his hand. A time like no other, none of them were like another. Never before h...

“Lights out” by Moon Lion

"Hey, you want some of this jelly?" I glanced up tiredly at Anya, who was holding out a cup of the vilest looking green goo I could imagine. "No thanks," I answered sharply, too exhausted to even fake politeness. Anya stared at me for a moment, clearly wanting to say something, but she chose not to, opening the hospital issued Jell-O with excessive force. She leaned, holding it out for m...

“What's coming? ” by Moon Lion

I leaned forward eagerly, watching the rain soaked male lead edge towards the girl, his lips- I frowned slightly, distracted from the ridiculous movie by even more ridiculous sounds. After a brief struggle to locate the remote, I switched off the show, shaken out of the romance by a strange set of noises. I frowned again, wondering if I'd actually heard something, or my inherited paranoia had finally caus...

Author bio

Hello world! I'm an artist and dangerously prolific writer seeking to improve my skills. Currently, I'm struggling through my final year in the IB program to enter a biological research program. I love to incorporate darkness, horror, and hints of irony and levity into my work. I hope you enjoy my explorations of the human condition! Cheers, Moon🌈
