He had never planned on attacking them. He didn’t want revenge; he didn’t want war… That is until they brought the war to him.

Sir Aldrich gazed below from his stone balcony. What once was a clear, amicable view of the town of Sapphire Village, with houses built up to scrape the air with their imperial height, became a cloudy, bothersome vision of the ruined, shattered Sapphire Village. The fox...

The darkened waves crash on the shore

You wish this beach day would last some more

The blue sky is becoming orange and pink

Straight out of a painting made of ink

The beginning of the end is here

And the most beautiful part of the day is near

As the sun rolls behind the waves

The darkness reached the caves

The rays streak across the sky

It’s the start of another evening in July...

Have you ever heard a ringing in your ears while you’ve been in a quiet place? This is temporary, although rarely it’s the symptom of a serious health problem, like a tumor or possibly blood vessel damage. Whenever it’s temporary, it’s usually from when you’ve been in a loud setting, like a concert, or sporting event.

Ringing in your ears is more common than you think. But sometimes, this ringing...

It was a cloudy, overcast morning. The sun was blocked by the gray clouds but a few rays shined through. I didn’t pay much attention to them, but for the purpose of this telling of my encounter with this identical parallel universe, I feel as though it sets the tone.

Have you ever felt your own breath on your face? I’m sure most have. For those who haven’t, it’s when you’re close to a surface opp...

Here we go, another test, once again

The timer is set to ten

The designs are formed into a line

The timer is set to nine

The rocket looks great

The timer is set to eight

The astronauts will be sent to space heaven

The timer is set to seven

There’s nothing left on the rocket to fix

The timer is set to six

We hope the astronauts will survive

The timer is set to five

Fire erupts, spreading a...

It was a dark night. There was no moon to illuminate the paths. There were no streetlights on the road outside my house to give any form of visibility. The only thing that could be seen outside were the stars up in the blackened sky.

I was watching television in the living room, sitting on my wrinkled brown linen couch, trying to relax after my accounting duties. I flipped through channel after c...

(End of my series for now)

The boss, Brooklyn, had finally had enough of the lazy worker Lenny. So he’s decided to let him go.

“Lenny, come into my office please.”

“Hey, boss!”

“Hello Lenny. Please take a seat.”

Lenny took his seat across from Brooklyn’s desk.

“So,” Lenny began, “what’s this about?”

Brooklyn sighed before starting, “Well… I’ve been noticing you haven’t been doing what I’ve ...

(There was another conversation between Lucky and Jason at the same place. We shall see how that unfolded.)

Lucky began the conversation. “Hey, nice to see you again.”

Jason replied, “I’m especially glad.”

“What makes you say that?”

“Well, I haven’t been the best lately.”

“Oh?”

“Yeah, well, I’ve been having nightmares lately.”

“Nightmares?”

“Yeah… they’re getting rough to deal with.”

“Oh,...

The beams shone through the windows of the house, engulfing anybody inside. It was February 2007, in San Francisco, California. It was a cloudy, purple birthday. Soon, the mist that once rolled over the ceiling would become smoke.

Smoke that becomes toxic to anyone who happens to breathe it in, however the smoke was deadlier this time. It had come from a dragon. A dragon’s smoke can make anyone ...
