“Primum Nil Nocere” by Jeff C. Carter

The big day had finally arrived at the School for Gifted Children, and the dean practically kowtowed from his own office. The staff and a coterie of New York’s most influential parents were ecstatic to host their esteemed guest, the one and only Dr. Warren Albright. He looked as though he’d stepped out of the glossy author photo from one of his best-selling books. His hair was chestnut brown with frost t...

“The shape-shifter.” by Batool Hussain

She radiated light just like her name. Her beautiful skin glistened in the neon light coming from the paved court through the slits in the blind, her soot-black lashes matted, and her gray beady eyes mischievous more than ever. Her long jet black hair fell in loose waves past her shoulders, with a few black peekaboo strands. “Haya. . . .?” called her mother. She quickly hid her diary under her pillow and marched off to her mother, anxious to see what came next.Dear diary,Ma still doesn’t know of my sh...

“The Taste of Lies” by Angelina Valencia

It’s been four years since I found out who I really am. It took me awhile but eventually I got there and it's not such a bad thing. The only thing that’s hard is not telling my best friend.Her name is Niut Parsons, and her name actually means nothing, no one knows what it means. It's a mystery for all of us, which is why she stands out so much. Me on the other hand, my name is Aletheia Greene, my name just means ‘honesty’ and I guess it kinda fits since I am a very honest person. I’m not the type of person to lie. Too bad ...

“Unique Hero” by Corey Melin

Davy is the youngest of six siblings, who grew up as a sickly child so his mother took care of him until the day she died unexpectedly. Instead of his siblings stepping up to take care of him they ignored him out of jealousy. It didn’t matter that he would have died without her constant help. They felt ignored and it was all his fault. With his father being a...

“Never Believe the News” by Amany Sayed

“Margret, I need that article tomorrow, you hear me?” I roll my eyes.“Yeah, yeah. Tomorrow”“Good. See you tomorrow.”“See ya!”I say, waiting for my boss to get into the elevator before twisting my chair to face my best friend Cassy.“Can you believe her? It’s not like I have powers! I am not the flash. There’s no way I’m going to finish by tonight.”“You know Margie, you have been working on this since last week…”“Yeah, well…..It’s a long article.”“Well then, you better hope you ...

“A Super Christmas Party” by Rhondalise Mitza

Diana was late to the Christmas party. She had been super busy with work lately, and then had to stop at the store for cookies before heading over to Bruce´s house. The party he was throwing had been planning a long time and Diana had heard rumors that it was going to be the best party since, well, forever. Diana fixed her hair and got ready to leave. Her phone rang and she looked down. Bruce was calling her. Whatever he had to say could wait. She put the phone in her bag and left.

“What Is A Superhero?” by Deborah Angevin

What is a superhero? It is a title given for those having the superpower and using it to represent hope, opportunity, and strength for everybody. Because when you only have a superpower without the right attitude, you are not a superhero. You are just someone with a superpower. --- I was nine years old when I realized that I have a superpower...

“Impossible Hide and Seek” by Niveeidha Palani

They were in Zack's neighbourhood, taking a stroll. Not many people were about. A beefy man with muscular arms had passed them thrice, a thin, lanky woman had been around with a poodle once and two teenage boys had goofed around before heading home. Scott, August and Zack were walking slowly, chatting and goofing about. Subject changed from being how horrible canteen food was to hide and seek. "Who's bet...

“Read Through Me” by Solstice Moon

Grim mahogany walls, glimmered indoors with a mild scent, zen-like silence infrequently interrupted by human murmurs. Perfect home for me. Well, my foster home. The little local library of our community. St Brooke's library.Situated right across the lake, this is the most picturesque location I have ever been in. We SciFi folks live on the shelf on the third row/fourth column, exactly opposite the only window of the library. On my right are the funny guys, the likes of 'The last girlfriend on Earth...

“A STUPID RECRUITMENT” by Johan Stones

The night was so dark and who would have thought it was a full moon? I mean, the NASA would probably have, but I would have not. I looked at the green necklace Ms. Griffin gave me. The green stone at the heart of the necklace was a bit shining somehow it was like connecting with the moon. I leaned my back on the wall in the alley. It was 11.50PM but the quietness changed the atmosphere like it was 03.00AM. I usually work at this time but I took my day off for something Ms. Griffin—the teacher of the Mutant School ...

This friend he didn't even know.“So? Why can't I know who you are!?”He had asked her to show him her true identity some weeks ago.

“Final Project” by Lisa E. Hamilton (Ms.Cheevious)

I had just concluded my final therapy session for the day when they found me. I stood up from my arm chair and outstretched my hand to a much more composed Brenda Farley, knowing it was the last time I’d see her, professionally at least.I was happy to help. In just 1 hour, 37 minutes she’d let go of 51 years of anxiety, depression, physical and sexual insecurities, self-hate and paranoia, all stemming from childhood trauma and subsequent failed marriages.Mrs. Farley stood and took my hand in both of her...

“Plotted” by Moonchild XOXO

Helena was walking down the street, head bent and her steps very hesitant. Her life had become horrible- this was the fifth school she had transferred to, and was bullied as soon as she stepped foot inside the building. It had only been three days, but her condition had escalated from bad to worse."Why do I have to change schools so often?" she wondered aloud, kicking at a stone in her path. "I won't attack students like a maniac. I am not a monster either."Her phone burst into a tinkling tune, and she picked it up."W...

“SICK” by Khizra Aslam

December 2019I was constantly looking and observing how you were behaving with me. I wasn’t myself since months yet I was pretending to be fine. You were sitting on a sofa right in front of me with your right leg on the left one and drinking a nice hot cup of coffee.‘darling I am already going crazy don’t make me do anything bad to you?’ while looking at Amy, I have this sudden urge of getting my frustration all out on her. I suddenly felt a rage conquering me inside to chop that bi**h into pieces and throw o...

“Lies” by Lindsey W

It’s a curse really. Everyone always thinks I wish I knew when people were lying to me. But I can tell you right now: you don’t.I’ve had it as long as I can remember. Someone would tell me something, I love your hair like that, that’s a nice top, I really like you. But inside my head I would hear the truth. It would look better down, your top is ugly, you’re a know-it-all
