As I read the letter addressed to me, from me, I was trying to wrack my memory for when I wrote it. A dear future me letter wasn’t out of the question as I had contemplated it multiple times. I just couldn’t remember ever coming around to writing one, let alone sending it.
I couldn’t deny it was my handwriting, that much I recognised, but it was the words written in that font that I was having a...
I’d probably either think this “important letter” is too much work or a hoax.
Because it is a letter and not just an email or text, I’d probably read the message. However, if saving the world required me to buy stamps at a post office and send a letter in return, you could count me out.
The only way I could convince myself it was really me is if I yanked myself into a fitting room at a Walmart ...
*Dear Parallel Self,*
*I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to you from a parallel world where danger looms around every corner. Our world is at the brink of destruction, and I fear that we might not survive with out your help.*
*You see, in our world, a dark force has risen, threatening to engulf us all in it malevolent grasp. Our once peaceful land is now filled with chaos and despai...
Hello! Yes you! I see that you are even more skeptical then I am. Which is a bit strange because I am you. Don’t roll your eyes and don’t put this down. I am you.. or I am the you in a different universe. We are the same, yet different, and yet the same danger seems to befall us. You luckily have not been visited yet; which is good. There is still time to save yourself and the ones you love.
Don’...
I read the note over and over again, hoping that I had missed some part of the joke, but nothing else was there. I rubbed my eyes vigorously, in case I had undiagnosed dyslexia. Or, just maybe, I had taken some drugs that I had somehow forgotten about and all of this was a hallucination.
Nope, definitely real.
How did I even get this letter? If the other Pandora really did exist, how did she ma...
"Welcome to my world." Isaac whispered.
"It's only this? I'd think it'd be bigger." JATG joked.
Suddenly a guy poked his head out from behind a wall. "I know my voice anywhere! Welcome, erm, Valerie, right?"
"Yeah, it's Valerie." JATG smiled.
"You've met your opposite...follow me." Isaac signaled with his hand to everyone.
Everyone followed him and stepped into a much larger room. A bunch of ...
“Amelia! Breakfast is ready!” Mom shouted.
“Coming..” I replied groggily.
The sun’s warm rays crept through my dusty, white blinds. It forced me to slip out of bed, due to the fact that it was quite literally burning my retinas. I noticed my pajama pants on the ground from last night when my boyfriend came over. Though, nobody knew he did because he always climbs through my window. Mom hates him...
All day was normal. Almost.
It started with a feeling. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I wasn’t alone. Even in my one bedroom apartment with nobody there I half expected to find someone just around the corner.
Then throughout the day at work, and walking around the city it became more out of the ordinary. A whisper here, a shadow there. I’ve always been called paranoid by my family. ...
I opened the letter and regarded the hand written pages. No one wrote letters like this anymore, and I hadn’t received one since my grandma passed a decade ago.
“Dear Miles,
I have been trying to warn you of what’s happening but I can’t get through to you. I’m so worried! Everything is falling apart and they’re coming for you next.
No one can stop them. They’re everywhere, in everything. If the...
Vanessa tilted her head as the AudioFile finished. She walked over to the trash and was about to put it in, when JATG bursts into her house.
"Heyyyyy!" JATG exclaimed. "What's up pen sista?"
Vanessa turned to her with tired eyes. "Hm?"
JATG shook her head. "You look so tired. How late have you been staying up, girlie?"
"Just 12." Vanessa replied, still dangling the AudioFile above the trash ca...
