Submitted to Contest #175

Trigger warning: Contains blood, Violence, And death “I can’t believe they abandoned us. Axel said. He looked out of the window and into the cavern's depth. The precious gems seemed to glow a dim blue and green. The sunlight illuminated the rock face and revealed a swirl of pink, white, and tan. But the sun revealed only so much of the rock before the endless abyss swallowed it. We’re on our own.

“Apartment of terror” by Wayne Steele

Submitted to Contest #158

The screams pierced the inky night air. Ella and I sat on the roof of her red car, sharing a cigarette, staring at the stars as they gleamed in the sky. The smoke seemed to be reaching for them. “Are you ready to head in?” She asked. The blue under glow on her car made it easier to see her curly red hair brushing against my shoulder. Her blue eyes gleamed in the light of the zippo lighter. The gray apartment building lo...

Trigger warning: contains blood and violence “He’s bleeding out,” A man named Jason yelled over the sirens. He put down his gun and ran past the other bodies and towards the bleeding man.

“Best friend” by Wayne Steele

Submitted to Contest #139

“Oh, Grow up!” “This is your fault!” Emma yelled. Her voice echoed in the bathroom. A sneer formed on Emma’s face; she stormed around the bathroom to see if anyone in the stalls was listening to our conversation. Thankfully there wasn’t anyone. Why would she do that? She thought. I was doing so well on my own, and she had to step in and ruin it. She always has to be the center of attention...

“Hidden papers” by Wayne Steele

“This is the dumbest thing you could ever come up with,” I said in utter disbelief. I crossed my arms in deficiency. The fire crackled as if it agreed with me. Everyone was starring, wondering what would happen next. The night-air send a shiver down my spine. “Common, Aaron, it's a dare,” Kevin said in an annoyed voice. The light of the campfire gave Kevin’s face an eerie glow. “You have to do ...

“The time where I almost failed” by Wayne Steele

Submitted to Contest #132

“Oh God, what am I going to do?” I mutter to myself, papers soaked with tears strewn across my desk, several cups of coffee thrown half-hazardly, some empty, some still full and cold. I looked at a nearby clock. The time was six o'clock. The moon was dipping in the west, getting ready for bed as the sun was getting ready to go to work. The sky looked like a dancing fire with a mix of orange, yellow and red. The birds s...

“Magic names” by Wayne Steele

Submitted to Contest #130

Content warning: contains blood.“I wonder what’s my purpose in life,” I thought to myself pacing the living room window. The sun was just beginning to wake up, and the birds were singing their beautiful songs. “Would I ever find it? How would I even realize it’s my purpose or, where to find it?” I walked to the window. My reflection showed the deep scowl of an unhappy boy. My hair was in a mess, my blue eyes were bloodshot, with deep bags under my eyes. “Who am I?” I pondered. A voice rang out from the kitche...

“Long lost brother” by Wayne Steele

Submitted to Contest #128

Writer's note: I accidentally submitted the story to the wrong category it should be. Write a story about a character reluctant to go to a tea party “I’ve always been a failure in the family, “I say to myself solemnly as I lay in bed. Everyone one always says David is nothing more than a loser and will always be a failure.” A letter was written as if it was from the queen herself, saying: “Dear David, I know it’s been a while since we talked last, but I was wondering if you could come to my tea party. ...
