His hands trembled as he lifted his phone to his ear. He hoped she wouldn’t hear his heavy breathing. “Hello? What is it, honey?” She sounded tired. “Hey, I couldn’t sleep, wanted to talk to you. Sorry. Did I wake you?” “Yah, but I’d rather speak to you.” “Would you, tell me how your day went?” “Sure, so I started the morning how I usually…” Her voice cut in and out as he began to fall asleep. At least that’s what it felt like.
He looked down at the blood pouring from his chest. It was beginning to well up in his throat. Her voice was so pleasant. Like a cold drink after a warm day. Tears began to flow down his face. So many words built up, so many wishes. “Honey?” “I-I’m here.” “You alright? Your voice sounds gargled.” “Just tired, long day at work. Sorry to ask, but could you, sing? Or even hum, for me? Just till I fall asleep.” “Of course.” “Thanks, I love you s-so much and I always will.” “Aww! I love you too.” He listened as she softly sang a song they often heard on the radio. He didn’t want to leave. But the ambulance would never be there in time. The phone slipped from his limp fingers. “Honey? You still there?” “…..” “Goodnight, love you.”
“You ready? I’m gonna teach you to fly.” I grab my sister’s hand and pull her towards the cliff edge with me she nods hesitantly. She doesn’t like heights. “So how do I fly?” “No clue have fun figuring it out!” I let go of her hand and pushed her off the cliff. “Novaaaae!” She covered her face with her hands as she fell towards the beach fifty feet below.
“What?”
“Huh?” She opened her eyes to see she was fine. “Why you-you can’t just throw people off cliffs!”
“Would you have simply jumped if I asked?”
“Well no, I wouldn’t, but that still doesn’t give you an excuse.”
“Well it worked didn’t it?”
“I-“ she suddenly realized she was hovering a foot off the ground. “I’m-I’m flying! Novae I’m flying!”
“I figured as much you might have suppressed a lot of your power but your instincts remain.”
“I can’t believe I’m flying!” Suddenly she noticed something her back felt strange it felt heavy. She looked behind her to see two beautiful wings. Her eyes lit up with happiness and she squealed with excitement. She flapped her wings and tested them out before long she was soaring through the sky. I simply sat on the beach and enjoyed the sight of her smiling. I had missed so much of her life. I hadn’t been there for her, but I wanted that to change. She flew back to beach and landed next to me then she sat down too. Suddenly she punched me in the shoulder!
“That’s for pushing me off the cliff!” “Ow! That hurt!” I said as I held my shoulder. She didn’t have to punch so hard. She wrapped her arms tightly around me. “And that’s for teaching me to fly.” “Your welcome, I enjoyed teaching you.” “Oh be quiet.”
Warning: blood and violence ahead so please don’t read if you aren’t good with that, but other than that enjoy! :)
“One! Two! Three. Your time is up. Better run!” He was in so much pain, but he knew he had to run! He got up from the ground were he had been hiding to catch his breathe. He didn’t know where he was going. The bounty hunters chased after him in their desert vehicles. There was nothing for miles which meant no one would hear him scream. Well no one would hear them scream.
“Umbra gladio!” A shadow sword rose from his shadow and he grasped it with trembling hands. “Ignis ardentis!” The sword blazed with flames as he jumped from the rocks onto one of the hunters vehicles. He drove his sword through the hunter’s head and raised his hand to the second “lique!” The hunter melted into a pile of boiling goop. He then jumped from the car as it ran into one of the rocks and exploded. He grabbed his stomach in pain, he had reopened his wounds. How he wished he were better at healing. The other hunters changed direction and headed straight for him. “Acri procella!”
A giant windstorm spun itself and headed straight for the hunters. Four of them dodged, but the other three got caught and the windstorm tore them apart dyeing the sand red. One of the vehicles drove straight at him. “Hirundo!” The sand rose up and swallowed the car whole. The hunters tried to jump out. “Astrangulare!” The sand strangled the hunters and dragged them down to their graves. Two of the hunters drove at him from different sides. “Lapis!” A giant boulder fell and crushed one of them. “Retrudere!” The car got within three feet of him before it was thrusted back and crashed against the rocks. The final vehicle hadn’t made an attempt to move yet, but it finally moved. It started driving backwards at full speed trying to escape it’s fate. But he wasn’t feeling merciful. “Flare.” The car blew up and nothing was left of the hunters. He collapsed on the ground too exhausted to stand, but he smiled with pure delight. “That was fun! I want to play again.” :)
She wondered where her old man neighbor had gone. She was on a plane with her neighbor and his friend. The friend owns a plane and happened to owe a favor to the neighbor. Their headed to France for the week. As soon as they got onto the plane her neighbor said he had to use the restroom and had been in there since. She wondered if she should check on him and see if he’s okay. As she was getting ready to stand up someone came from the front of the plane. From the footsteps it was someone big and heavy. She turned to see a man that she didn’t recognize. He was probably the friend who owns the plane. He was tall with short, black hair and beautiful, pine green eyes. He wore a black, leather trench coat. “Hello,” he said. His voice sounded like butter. “Um hello? Are you Bob’s friend? The one that owns the plane?” “I own the plane yes, but I’m not Bob’s friend. I am Bob.” She didn’t know what to say. “Sorry to have to spring this on you. I had hoped I would never have to tell you, but people are after you. I had to intervene after all thats why I’ve been your neighbor all this time was so that I could protect you.” “So you’re my neighbor? The old man who comes over twice a week to eat diner with us and would make all sorts of desserts for us to try? The old man who would pick me up from school then we would go get ice cream?” “I have a sweet tooth,” he shrugged. “But that doesn’t make any sense you can’t just become younger.” “Well technically I only look younger I’m quite old.” “How old?” “I came to this world a little before medieval times. You do the math.” “Ok um why did you choose to look like an old man? And who’s after me?” “Would your mom let a handsome young man pick up her teen daughter from school?” “No, she wouldn’t.” “Exactly, as for who’s chasing you well this is gonna be a simple explanation so a long time ago a little before medieval times me and my people came from a magic world to this one and have since been living in a magic bubble hidden from the rest of the world but a fee of us leave the bubble from time to time one of them was a friend of mine and he fell in love with a human they had a kid but other humans learned of his magic origin and hunted him down and killed him they tried to kill you but your mom managed to get you away and gave you to me I then gave you to an orphanage and made sure you were adopted by a good family.” Bob took a moment to catch his breath he didn’t like long explanations. “So you look young but your actually over a thousand years old?” “Yes, and you want to know what I learned?” “What?” “If your offered immortality don’t except decline and walk away never look back. Immortality stinks.”
“Finally,” he thought. “I’ll be able to see them again. I only wish I didn’t have to leave my sister behind.” He had lived a long and fulfilling life and was ready to see his family again after so long. He wasn’t scared. He closed his eyes for the final time.
His eyes slowly opened to see bright light. He looked around to see his family, but it wasn’t the family he had expected. “Look he’s opening his eyes!” He didn’t understand. Where was his family? Why wasn’t his family there? Suddenly he remembered something he hadn’t remembered in a long time. A promise he had made a long long time ago. Why had he forgotten? He couldn’t hold it in he started to cry. He would never see his family again. Instead of a peaceful death he would always be reborn.
She was on her way home from work when she passed the new antique shop.
She thought she might as well check it out. When she entered the shop she could smell that standard antique smell. She found a few things she liked. an antique coca cola sign caught her eye and she went to look at the price. It was $12 and she was gonna buy it. She was about to grab it off the shelf when something beside it caught her attention. It was an odd looking mirror. It didn’t look like it would in an antique shop she looked at the tag and it read:
$25
Made in: 2041
“That’s odd.” she thought. “It must be a mistake. it’s probably is supposed to 2011 or 2021.” She looked into the mirror and had it been some sort of complicated machine, and not a simple mirror, she would have thought it broken. For she had no reflection. She thought maybe it was just really dusty but when she tried to wipe it down it was crystal clean. Then she realized it was fake. It was simply designed to look like a real mirror. In the background of this fake mirror there was no antique shop it instead was a restaurant. Even though it was fake it looked so realistic. “I wonder how long it took for someone to paint that?” She thought moving back to the coca cola sign. She grabbed the sign from the shelf and went to check out. On her out she wondered where she should hang her new sign. Little did she know a drunk driver was coming towards her.
The end.....
For her.
It awoke. It’s head throbbed with pain. It looked around to find it was still in it’s ship. “Where am I?” Thought the creature. “ what happened” it couldn’t remember what had happened to it. It raised it’s hand to find five fingers instead of four. And instead of shadowy black it had cream almost pink colored hands. The ship must have changed the alien’s appearance so that it would fit in with the planets species. It was easier to travel that way. It swiped at the device around it’s wrist to reveal map of the galaxy. “No, no it can’t be, I’m on Ranvax 3!” It Thought ”This place is home to some of the most bloodthirsty species ever known. These guys attack any aliens they see! Then lock them into a place called area 51 where they torture them for brutal entertainment! I have to get out of here before they find me!” It grabbed the controls and began to try to lift off but the room started flashing red with warning. “The right thruster and stabilizers are out and the repair bot still needs charging so I’ll need to do it manually. That means I’ll have to go outside. The scanners say there are no life forms within ten zarnacks. I should be safe.” It thought. It went outside to find a pure, white, cold planet. Even more of the stuff on the ground was falling from the sky. It couldn’t help but look up and stick out it’s tongue trying to catch the stuff a few of them landed on it’s tongue and it was surprised to find it tasteless. “Hold it right there!” Shouted a voice from behind it interrupting it’s fun. “I guess the scanner is broken too.” It thought. It turned around to see around a dozen of bright red creatures holding odd looking guns at it. “Identify yourself!” Shouted one of them. “My name is Alacoflax the fifth I am a Blythox from the planet Blythorin and I come in peace.” Answered Alacoflax. Confident in it’s introduction. The human stopped for a second confused as though he couldn’t understand. Alacoflax was confused too he was certain his translater was working. “You will come with us!” The human shouted after he recovered from his shock “What for?” “Illegal trespassing on the planet Earth of the milky way.” “Yes, well you see, I didn’t mean to trespass. I crashed here on my way to Ranvax 4 to visit my friend ba’oom.” “ you will come with us or we will be forced to open fire and take you in by force!” “As you wish, but there really is no point though.” Alacoflax put down the toolbox it was carrying and slowly walked towards the oddly dressed creatures known as humans. The human who had shouted the orders at it walked forward as well holding out a large ring. Once the human was within a few feet he held out the ring. “What am I supposed to do with it?” Asked Alacoflax. The human did not answer he instead opened the ring and quickly put it around Alacoflax’s neck. As soon as the collar was on Alacoflax felt it’s strength drain away. After only a few minutes it could barely think. The human gestured for Alacoflax to follow him. Alacoflax did as it was told. It was loaded onto a truck. It mustered up enough strength and looked behind it to see the other humans entering it’s spaceship which was now covered in the strange, tasteless, white stuff. The truck door closed behind it and it was swallowed by darkness. It didn’t know how long it was in there nor where it was. The truck came to a stop and the door was finally opened. Two humans came in both carrying guns they ordered it to stand up. It had no choice but to do as it was told. It was led off the truck into a large building a large plane was the only thing there. The humans took Alacoflax to the plane and brought it inside. It sat down in one of the chairs and within ten minutes the plane was moving it drove out of the building then down the runway. The plane lifted off the ground and into the sky. Alacoflax had guards watching it at all times though it couldn’t get up if it wanted due to the collar. Alacoflax was so tired cause of it that it fell asleep.....
Dear diary today is August fifth and this my first diary. Today I started a new job at the mall. It went well. I’m working at a clothings store. For some reason I felt like I was being watched but I didn’t see anyone.
Dear diary today is August twentieth I haven’t wrote anything for a while because I’ve been too busy. But for now I’m the only one working till my coworker gets here. I came in early so I could finish the work from last night.
Dear diary I’m the only one left in the store cause I’m closing up. I started to feel like I’m being watched again. The feeling had gone away but now it’s back. I don’t like it and I don’t feel safe. It feels like there’s someo.....
“So how’s your day been?” Asked Iyin “So far so good.” Smiled Diana “I was able to fall asleep fairly quick last night so I got plenty of sleep then my mom made me breakfast. How about you?” “About that I wanted to ask you some-“ Suddenly someone screamed followed by more screaming Iyin turned around to see alien troops charging through a portal about a block away from them. “Aw man! Not now, anytime but now.” Sobbed Iyin “What are we gonna do?” Gasped Diana preparing to run. “You’re gonna go somewhere safe.” “What about you? what are you gonna do?” “Well I would call my brother he could take them out in a second, no casualties to the humans, but he and my mom are out of the city. I could ask my sister but I won’t. So I guess I’ll just do it myself.” “How on earth could you or any of your family beat aliens?” Said Diana in disbelief “You’d be surprised” Iyin took off his sunglasses to reveal black sclera, white iris and a blood red pupil. “What I can do.” “Your one of them. One of the people on that team that killed the bashing triplets.” “Yeah, I am. Now I have to go” “Which one?” “Huh?” “Which one did you kill?” “The one with a knife through his jaw to his brain.”
