Transfer Student (Part 2)

“Y-you,” was all Lilian could stutter out. He blinked with recognition, “Y-you,” his face quickly turned to surprise.  “You’re one of the transfer students?” he asks. She stares at him in disbelief, “Well yeah, I’m pretty sure my dad established that before I spat meat in your face.” Her hand flies to her mouth.  The boy looks equally as shocked as she does. His shock quickly falls into grim anger. “Wait, where are you-?” but before she can finish her sentence he turns and storms up the stairs. “Hey, I didn’t mean-” but another ...

Transfer Student (Part 1)

Lilian’s parents knew how much she hated these stupid parties. Not that it mattered much, similar to everything else, she was still forced to attend them no matter how much she protested. On top of that, this one was placed on her first day of winter break. She hated everything about them, the itchy dresses she was forced to wear, the stuck-up dignitaries and politicians who gossiped and looked down their noses. It was to be expected though, her father was the governor. It didn’t mean she had to like it though.  Her dad had been the on...

Sixth Sense

Submitted to Contest #92

*Disclaimer: No small children were harmed in the making of this story* I have always been afraid of the dark. Which makes the lights going out about 10 times scarier. And in the subway of all places at that. And then there’s my special ability. Yeahhhh, I’m not a normal 15 year old, I can sense a person’s deepest darkest secrets. Sounds like fun doesn’t it? WRONG! Oh, you should hear about half of the shit I have been put through over this. I mean it was SO delightful to find out my dad was cheating on my mom with her sister when I was 1...

The Day The Sun Went Missing

Submitted to Contest #92

The leaves and branches brush past me but It’s hard to pay them any mind anymore. The night is silent except for the pounding of my boots on the ground and the crashing I create through the thick greenery. The sky is pitch black. And it’s the middle of the day.  It’s not my fault that the guardian of the day decided that she could just leave her post. And yet here I am fixing it for her.  “That idiot!” I cry into the darkness. I halt suddenly. Panting in the middle of the woods like a mere human. She has brought this humiliation ...

Any Good Person

Submitted to Contest #91

"This a library," The librarian snapped with a look of fury in her eyes, "If you cannot work discreetly, please leave, this is no place for social interaction." We nod solemnly and I can see Emily biting her lip to keep her laughter in. The librarian stalks back to the front desk where she had been shooting dirty looks at us for the last half hour. As she sits down, Emily and I finally burst out with the laughter we had been holding in. The librarian glances back up sharply and we look away quickly hiding our snickers. “Okay, okay, we seri...

The Book of Ancient Magical Creatures

Submitted to Contest #91

Usually, I have the Nox Caelo Public Library closed and locked up at 7:00 pm, but tonight is different. And I don’t just mean the unusual number of people who came in asking for the book “The Book of Ancient Magical Creatures” which the library has no record of. And I don’t mean the blood moon either. I mean the bookcase in the kid's section of the library where all of the books were not only taken off the shelves but hidden all around the library. I sigh and pull a copy of “Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone” out from underneath a bean-...
