I have books and games to pass my time. Ting tong ting oh and also this xylophone, guitar, piano and drums. But I did lie when I said gray was the only color I see, it is more like the first colors that I have ever known.

“First winter” by Russel Lad

Submitted to Contest #77

The day started as usual with the sun rising over the horizon meeting the fluffy clouds, the fresh summer breeze, the morning birds singing their song. This was another day a grateful and splendid day… Yet I feel so empty so eager for something else to happen. I walked up every morning to the hill that separates two villages to meet my best friend Robert. There we roll down like two idiots to the bottom of the hill and compete who could walk the furthest in a dizzy state. He would win most of the time. That was 3 years ago. “What has ever ...

"Find him!" Said an imposing large fat alien "Sir a few reported seeing him head for the docks",said a small large eyed dark skinned alien. "Darn reports from here now there?

“Home ” by Russel Lad

Before The story starts a quick disclaimer on copyrights. There are elements of Star Wars in the story... With that aside I hope you enjoy the story "Has it been located?" asked the captain "We cannot be sure captain the shield is like anything that we have ever seen" said a dwarf in the command pod of the ship. The captain growled in impatience, "We have been following that thing for 3 Jellian weeks and that is what you are going to say?" "Sorry captain it is just out of our current understandings" One long sigh have released from...

“The Unsolved Mystery of the Robinsons” by Russel Lad

Submitted to Contest #64

Two weeks have passed since I have arrived at this place, the Robinsons seem to be not telling me everything despite the fact that they are open and friendly but have an air of hostility if I ask too much. Any normal human being would accept that fact but not me. My name is Molly Anderson, I came from Brimwood High before ending up here to take up A Bachelor’s degree in Journalism at the University of Loushigan. Everything was normal at first, the crunching leave underneath my feet the creaking board of the porch, all changed when I entered ...
