Plan, Pick, Fail

Quill To Page

“Don’t rush me. I’m being as careful as I can.” I hissed, my fingers twisted in a complicated position as I fiddled with the lock pick.

The hairpin I used, wasn’t the most efficient for this purpose, especially when attempting to break out from a high-security castle prison. Luckily the meant to be skilled guards were drunk on that day, after celebrating the capture of the most wanted thief in t...

Murder Before The Ball (Part 3)

2 min read

I awoke slowly. Eyes fluttering, mind spinning.

The first thing I noticed were the wires locking my hands behind the back of the chair I was sat on. Blood had trickle down from my temple, now dry and cracking. I wasn’t in the ballroom anymore, that was for certain.

Walls: concrete. Light: scarce.

“Finally awake! How delightful. At first I thought you were dead.” The farmiliar voice echoed fr...

The hair on the back of my neck stood on end as I searched for the source of the voice.

Deep. Male.

I turned when footsteps resonated from behind me. Dressed in a suit, although cloaked to hide his face. To threaten a member of authority in something as constricting as a suit would require a tremendous amount of courage.

Experienced.

I grit my teeth, my pockets were empty, my knife in his ha...

Red.

Blood painted the marble floor in large pools.

Glass.

The chandelier had fallen and shattered.

I surveyed my surroundings. A man, not of great importance most likely, judging by his clothes, killed in the centre of the ballroom, covered in tiny shards of glass.

Young. Unsuspecting.

His eyes were open in a frozen frame of shock and pain. The food set out on long dining tables was stil...

Life Is Like A Sharp Stick

Quill To Page

1 min read

Life is like a sharp stick, not all too powerful, unless honed and used properly.

Your life could just be a toy for a child walking within the woods or a plaything for a dog, holding the very strings of your being within its maw.

Or, it could be a weapon, a last resort of defence or a makeshift spear made by the chief of a clan.

If used correctly, it could make a great different, striking do...

_Chance Lane,_

_I know who you are. _

_You can’t hide forever. _

_We have killed the chef on ‘La Disfrazada’, a large yacht carrying over a two hundred passengers departing from the docks of New York by dawn. We want you to sneak onto the boat, and try stop us. It’s going to be fun!_

_Oh, and one more thing…_

_If you don’t, they all die._

Chance regarded the letter in his han...

Bedtime Stories

At night my mother would read me a story,

Tales about nights, kings all seeking for glory.

I sat down, half asleep, my eyes sore,

I listened intently, legs-crossed on the floor.

Some of the stories were terribly tragic,

Others included wizards and magic.

Magic, my favourite thing,

Oh, wat fun magic would bring.

If we were all wizards no one would cry,

We’d laugh in glee as we fly through the ...

Time Passes By

Growing strong underneath the sky’s vast dome,

Aging, growing older, at a fast pace,

The months and weeks rush by,

Until wrinkles carve into your face.

Clouds pass slowly overhead,

Seconds fly by with every blink,

Many memories form in that time,

Faster than you may think.

Growing strong underneath the sky’s vast dome,

In my aging mind I think, oh my,

What a strange thing,

That Time passes by....

Wonderful Water

_Ignore the prompt! I wanted to share this poem I wrote with you!_

__My heart,

A restless sea or a glistening lake,

Whirlwind rapids or a calm stream.

My heart,

Is like a body of water,

On the surface it glistens,

It listens,

To the calm flutter of birds,

And smiles at the azure sky.

Placid and tranquil,

Although sometimes disturbed,

By the occasional drowning flies,

Or a gale sweeping over i...

Blood On Autumn Leaves

Quill To Page

1 min read

The quick pace of our steps slowed.

Collapsing by a tree, I placed my hand on my shoulder, trying to slow the bleeding that seeped through my torn clothes in great amounts. Fatigue overcame me. My eyes blurred around the edges as I tried to focus my eyes on Kellen, who slowly sat beside me and helped me stop the blood. I exclaimed quietly in pain so he stopped, pulling his hand away. My blood no...
