I jump with joy in my heart outside and close the car door with a boom, landing in a puddle with a splash. I take a deep breath and smell the rain, hearing the drops hit the ground. It has been raining all day, which is why we are going to the museum today. I have never been to a museum before. I have always preferred reading a book or watching a movie, as it gives me an escape from life. I feel l...
June squinted her eyes against the harsh sunlight cutting to her skull like tiny daggers. It had been at least an hour since she’d entered the abandoned house in the side of the hill. She’s been out exploring in the mountains near her home of western Virginia while her mother was out for lunch with a friend.
June lowered her blue eyes and notice a red beetle scurrying away from her bare feet. Sh...
Lately, time feels like it's fleeting. It’s always two steps ahead of you, gaining speed whenever you're close to riding its coattails. You move like a cat through the alleyways, taking a shortcut. You didn’t usually take shortcuts or walk in alleyways like a protagonist waiting to be robbed or murdered, but you were desperate and late. Already, you received two texts from your friend Susan, who w...

My alarm blares into my ears and I jolt upright. I check the time—7:30! School starts at 8:00! I was going to be late. I jumped out of bed. I opened my closet door and pulled out a shirt I don’t remember owning, not being able to wear my usual clothes since I hadn’t bothered to do the laundry since I hit my head after falling into that hole in the ground. I had too much of a headache to be respons...
It was the movement of the clouds that gave the game away. The large open sky was covered in dark, grey, extremely slow moving clouds. In fact it would take several minutes close study for any observer to state with any certainty that they were moving at all. However in on sector of the sky, about 30 meters wide, the clouds moved from there steady crawl and started to zip across the gap at rapid s...
(Another rushed story, sorry!)
It was a regular day
Until the sinkhole struck
Who would’ve known
That I’ve been out of luck
The sinkhole grew larger and larger
Engulfing buildings in its mighty depth
