“Shape-Shifter Squad” by ᗩᗴᖇiᑎ ᖇᗴᗷᗴᑕᑕᗩ ✨🌈

“IIIIII HATE HIM!”Crash.“HE’S A JERK!”Bang.“I HOPE HE FALLS INTO A HOLE AND DIES!”Smash.“AARRRRRRRRRRGH!”I hurl my fist down on one more hollow wooden sphere and smile at the extremely loud but totally satisfying CRASH.

He was inducted into FEAR. Later on, he’d gotten married and had two kids, both of whom were … disappointing. Conan, his older son, had been disowned. Huh. Like...

“Roll of Quarters” by Rhondalise Mitza

Camino Pope always imagined her first alien encounter to be in an abandoned field in Kansas, not a small outdoor mall in Delaware. She thought there would be more cows, more lights, more eyes, maybe. Though now that she was here, there were none of those things. There was a strong looking boy leaning against a clothes rack, wearing a black and white checkered coat and smoking a roll of quarters he’d borrowed fr...

“Something_Very_Serious” by Moonchild Luca

Zoe solemnly opened the polished door to a creak.“Password?” she demanded. The other woman standing outside was dressed in casual clothes, but she clutched a briefcase and her face was all serious.“9-5-0-0-X-0-1” she replied. Zoe nodded and opened the door a little wider. “Come in.”The woman holding the briefcase stepped inside the meeting room where there were already two other people present. Zoe strode across to the instant coffee machine and brewed herself a cup. She turned to the newcomer. “I believe you come wit...

Lucky for me, I didn't have to spend lunch break sitting alone in a corner bench next to the dustbins. My mother is a nurse. Since school a...

Between the scents of the vendors and the beautiful language...

“The Eastern Sun” by Scout Tahoe

The final rise of the eastern sun. The tranquil sunrise cast untold shadows across the city. The orange light was reflected in her dark eyes. Long shadows slithered onto her face and made her appear older than she was. Ioni was settled at the local cafe, her nails tapping impatiently against the wooden table.
