It all started with the old cars hidden in the woods and their inhabitants.
When the New World began rising, it started making its way into the broken one. Some of the first places to experience the sudden emergence were small towns; the type with a lane of old-fashioned shops and businesses with houses littering the terrain within a quarter to half mile radius. Places such as these were forced ...
In the semi-darkness, the pebbles of the tunnel floor looked like coffee beans vanishing into a deeper, pitch blackness. "Nope. Nope. Hell no. I am not going down there." Jackson took one look down the tunnel and immediately turned around. One of the bodyguards grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and forced him back to the mouth of the tunnel.
Patrick scoffed. "I don't remember giving you a c...
"Oh my God, guys! Breaking news out of the Popular Topic Zone: there was a statement released by the US Air Force about a sudden update regarding a missing pilot who flew into the Bermuda Triangle. Allegedly, pilot Scott Taegann flew out of his air base along the Georgia coastline on a routine mission roughly two and a half years ago and lost all contact after twenty-seven minutes.

Walking home quickly was the only way to keep warm in the plummeting cold of January's winter. The faster I walked, the quicker I'd get home and the less time I'd spend in the cold. Damn my car's transmission going out. I just consider myself lucky I live in such a small town where anything I need is within a short walking distance.

The excitement of the climb had taken all of Lexi's energy. As soon as Mason pulled her over the edge, she collapsed in exhaustion; she never witnessed Ivy being pulled to her death.
She dreamed she was back on the route. This time, there was a immense mountain range in front of her. The route ran right into them and through a serene, green meadow. Above her were white, puffy clouds against an o...
With the wave of her hand, all fires receded. It all culminated into a fireball, hovering over her hand. Looking over at her new accomplice, she blew the fire at him. The fire gave her executioner his new body. “Welcome home, old friend. It’s been too long.” With a chuckle, she turned to the world in front of them. “Let’s get started.”
The Keeper and her executioner walked over the small hills th...
They'd been blessed with a late blizzard at the end of March. Ambrose had been hoping it would since September; he'd been begging for the snow to extend into early spring just so he could play in it for longer. When he woke up Saturday morning to the sight of big, fluffy snowflakes falling just outside his window, he ran down the stairs and to the back sliding door to see the backyard. Seeing a ne...
"Shall we explore further?" Damian nodded and they started walking around again.
Again, it was nothing special; park benches here, lampposts there, a few small playgrounds for children, everything they knew to be in a typical park. Just like Devon, though, they noticed the grey tint of everything. The benches were a dark grey. The lights shined bright white, even though it was still midday. Even...
As the High Lord laid in wait, he dreamed of his congregation's victory.
His Goldflow had revealed to their people the ancient wealth of the Old World, not just the treasure within the strongholds, but the knowledge in bringing the New World to its rightful glory.
His Churchead had collected his faithful following. His people understood the necessity of unity and they served to see destiny ful...
