“The Fuck?”

“The fuck?” I say confused and sleepy. Glancing between the co-ordinates on the ivory pages and the unfamiliar room around me. I decide to flop back on my bed and return back to sleep.

When I awaken again, I’m back home- or so I believe. I believe it until I swing my legs over the edge of the bed to sit-up and only to see the unfamiliar room around me again. Then I spot it. On the floor are the...

“There, that should do it!” I said, disengaging my focus on a young widow’s heart. “Just lay off having too many salads this time.” I added quickly, dropping my arms.

‘Will it though?’ a voice in my head crooned.

I remembered visiting a medik-center just south of here and seeing all the people I had helped with my healing sciences dying in their bed slowly, their heart pressure slowing gradually. ...

I could only feel my heart beating rapidly in my brain as I tiptoed slowly to the end of the corridor. I took some deep breaths to steady myself. And as I got to the door- that black rectangular shape at the end of the corridor my breath stopped and hitched in my throat. Was I really about to do this? I pulled down the handle left the door swing open gently before then shuffling in.

The room smelt...

A Coal-ed Betrayal

A pair of eyes all black like obsidian store back at me, and as I store back at them into those ancient looking eyes realisation dawned on me. My mouth gapped open in horror. My mouth quirked in thought. “All this time you were training me to do your bidding!”

Those eyes store back at me for a long moment, then the arm of their master slithered up my wrist like a snack. I shook him off. “No! Don’t...

I grab my sister’s hand and pull her towards the cliff edge with me. She nods slowly in my direction. Then we jump. We fall.

Down. Down. Down. And down.

The whole world rushes past us in a vacuum.

Then vroom! I awake with a startled jolt in my bed, sitting up fast gasping for air. I can hear my sister snoring perfectly above me in her bunk bed.

I take deep breath and already feel my heart starting...

I know Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron was my favourite movie ever growing up as a kid. But, shit! That’s some handsome buckskin with eyebrows. Strangely very alike the animated stallion from the movie. But in live action… No screen… Real life right now…

His brow facing me arches as he senses my presence. Lifting his head from the long bunches of grass and cocking it at me inquisitively. By the e...

Why Are Those Fishies Sad Looking Auntie?

I danced underwater with the fishies. They waved and bubbled at me. I was in paradise. Just like Ariel in the Little Mermaid.

Then my eyes set on some large golden fishies. I dashed over to them.

When I stood at the tank, I noticed these fishies seemed different from the others. They weren’t as bubbly or wavy. They looked as if they were resting. But, I think maybe they were sad. Their eyes droop...

Everywhere I look, I get shamed because I’m the ‘villain’ but what if all I ever wanted to do was be the hero? Their hero? My hero…

Well, shame on them all!

I restrain a mean-looking child with a lolli in his grasp. “Is this what you want, huh?” I bark at the child’s parents - two mothers. One is frail and appears almost like glass as she breaks into sobs, wailing almost immediately at me to let h...
