"How do you know the deceased?"


"We were best friends." The one armed girl blankly stared ahead at Bethany's casket. She spoke so quietly, her conversation partner almost didn't hear her. "I thought I'd say one last goodbye before I left this town." She walked up and placed her hand on Bethany's forehead. "I'm so sorry, Beth." The one armed girl whispered between tears. "I know you loved her and ...

Sep. 29th


Okay, this entry needs to happen now even if my next scheduled journal entry isn't for another couple of days. I had to leave work early on Friday because I couldn't raise my arms more than a few inches from my body. I went to the doctor and explained my pain: if I tried using my arms in any way, torturous pain would surge through my upper back; the higher I raised them, the more intens...

"Guys! Guys! I've got it!" Oliver nearly busted the door of the apartment down.


"Someone forgot to take their meds." Myah retorted.


"No, listen! I just found the ideal topic that'll solve this whole problem!"


"If you suggest Roswell one more FREAKING TIME, I'm going to dropkick you out that window and no jury in the world would convict me of murder!" Terry snapped the pencil he was using and po...

"Now, I know things around here have been hectic, but please, allow me to give you something really worth your time." The dean sat up from his desk and walked over to the door, motioning for Chester to follow him. "The thing is, Mr. Logen, we try to maintain an accommodating atmosphere here at UV and your little, what do you guys call it again? A 'side hustle?'" Chester shook his head. "Whatever t...

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 ...

Chant of the Faithful

Two go in, and one comes out

Asking, "What was the cost?"

With doors sealed and hatches locked,

The blood can't mix with frost.


An echoed glory of ancient riches

Stripped mines have empty veins.

All the unfaithful shall be reminded

Of their freedoms truly feigned.


So let us raise voices in solemn praise

Let blessings fall on our head.

And when our enemies fall to treachery

Let them cry, "THE ...

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...

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.


Halfway on my walk home from work, I swore I was seeing spots i...

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...
