I had to get away. I needed a change of scenery. Everything is so much different now. Nothing was the same after the fire. It was an accident, I didn’t mean to hurt anyone. I never thought it could happen to us. I jhad ust left a candle lit while I went to the store, I never expected it to start a fire. I never thought the fire would cause so much destruction. The fire burned down the whole house ...

The book in front of me was aged hundreds of years, written back in the 1300s, ancient history staring back at me. Barely holding together but still retaining a giant piece of history in its writings. The yellowed pages and smudged ink bring joy to my soul, knowing how cared for it truly was. To find a book from that time in this good of a condition was astonishing. Most books crumble at the sligh...

The scene around me seemed off, things almost seemed staged. Areas had been disturbed, the dust moved around but were magically back in place after he was found dead. Then there is the fact of the angle of the gunshot. It would be near impossible for a person to do it themselves. These small details would be easily missed if you hadn’t analyzed scenes like this for twenty years. Stepping into the ...

Although I couldn’t see, something told me that I definitely wasn’t alone in the cellar. I can feel their presence around me, their eyes watching my chained and blindfolded figure analyzing me. I can almost feel them come closer, their breathing becoming more and more audible. Before now I just assumed that it was my own breathing that I hearr, but the more I focus on it the more I can hear the tw...

I freeze staring down at my arm. Wires poking out of the fresh cut, electricity crackling between the ones that were cut. I tried to move my hand but it was stuck in place, somehow I severed the wires that let me move my hand. What am I, and why do I have wires beneath my skin. Am I one of the androids that people talk about all the time? The human like robots that scientists have forced to live a...

The world came crashing down around me. Everything I knew was a lie. I was supposed to be the greatest, but I’m actually just average. It should have been me, I was always told it was me. In actuality my worst enemy was the chosen one. They get to live the life I’ve dreamed of since I was four. I don’t understand how she is the one who gets this power, she doe’s deserve it. I should have it, it’s ...

I stare down the edge of the cliff, my mind replaying what just happened. The scene below me allowed me to breathe a sigh of relief. I didn’t mean for it to happen like this though, I wanted revenge but I wanted him to suffer the way I did. He threw me into a lake like I was trash and I wanted him to experience the same thing. He wasn’t supposed to fall, the cliff wasn’t supposed to crack and brea...

Older houses are known to sometimes have secret passageways, especially those on the path of the underground railroad. I just never expected my house to have one, it wasn’t mentioned in the listing nor was it shown on any of my tours. The door looked very old and like it hadnt been touched in years. Turing the handle elicited an ear piercing screech, and pushing the door open created an almost as ...

I thought I killed her, I tossed her in the lake. I even tied a cinderblock on her ankle to make sure she wouldn’t be found. I didn’t mean to kill her at first, I just got in a fit of rage during an argumnent. Next thing I know she’s on the ground not breathing. I panicked and disposed of her. I’m too good for jail. Now she’s calling me, how do I escape this, how did she escape this. Fear runs thr...

He tried to get rid of me, throw me in the lake like a piece of trash. He didn’t think I would be able to make it up in time to surivie, but I did. I can feel the dirt under my hands as a drag my weighed down body up. The ciderblock chained to my ankle trying to drag me back down. I will get revenge, he will regret ever trying to kill me. In a fit of rage during a fight he hit me over the head wit...
