Bridges

The fog lay thick across the rusted steel, the headlights of my jeep barely penetrated the murky soup. My shadow rose against the gray bank of clouds looking colossal and grotesque. My laughter penetrated the eerie silence. Was I loosing my mind? Absolutely. I couldn’t help but become hysterical as I looked at the intimidating image my form cast because this shadow, this trick of light, somehow ha...

Started With A Dare

Dare you this and dare you that. What was it with dares. And the people dumb enough to do them. Well that’s how Easten ended up on the side of the road. Beat and barely without breath. Him and his friends were highly intoxicated, well most of them, when one of them turned to Easton and said,” you’d flinch if we drove right towards you. We wouldn’t hit you but you’d jump out of the way”

Easton...

WHAT THE F*CK

What the fuck?!


I absolutely hate these major shifts. It feels like a hot poker has pierced straight from my ass to the top of my head. Someone really messed up in a big way. I grab the binders (hit the brakes) and punch the door with my right hand. I was reaching for the shifter to downshift this big bitch while yelling "SHIT," as I punch the window. Suddenly, the...

The Crystal

The car slowly trailed away, leaving Nevan to ponder the choice he’d just made.

Adorning the fanciest suit in his closet, he had made sure he looked immaculate when meeting with the men in the car. Those mysterious, strange men — which also offered him serious cash for a crystal.

_ _The crystal, however, was not an easy find. Located somewhere in the general area which was marked on his m...

A Quick Goodbye

One moment my headlights were on him standing in the street like he was waiting for me, waiting for us to change and be okay again. The next moment my taillights were on him with his puff face in my review mirror.

It’s so hard to say goodbye to him because I love him but hes better off without me. He deserves more than a girl who comes from nothing and a family that’s falling apart. He deserves so...

The Man In The Suit

“Drive!” I yell, my voice hoarse from screaming. The Jeep jerks forward, colliding me with a rough burlap sack, full of sharp objects. I grunt, grabbing the sack and clutching it tightly.


Eric looks back at me, his eyes wide with worry. “They’re gaining on us!” He screams, pushing down on the accelerator harshly. Another normal Tuesday, robbing from one of the most highly secure banks and almost ...

Trip to the Mountains

“I’m cold” I say to my boyfriend as I’m sitting in the passenger seat next to him. He looks at me and turns my seat warmer on and smiles. As we continue our drive to our cabin I take in the scenery around us. The mountains and trees go on for miles but the rain makes it kind of hard to see everything. “Are you excited for our cabin getaway?” my boyfriend asks while lowering the volume on the radio...

Reaper

Blood. There was blood everywhere. He was covered in it. The stench of it filled his nostrils making his stomach roll with nausea. Rain and sleet poured down around him, drenching him to the bone. The car, not just smashed, but torn and shredded as if by a giant creature. And his mother. Lifeless, blank staring eyes. His mother lay next to him on the ground…dead. That was Senri’s first memory....

The Bridge of Uncertainty

It was a dark blue evening when the night crept in, gently smothering the last rays of twilight. A light fog embraced an old bridge, its contours barely distinguishable, as if the very end of the span was swallowed by impenetrable mist. At the centre of this eerie scene, a single car rested motionless. Its headlights, the sole beacon in the lingering gloom, cut through the damp air—revealing a sce...

Bridge

I ran until my legs couldn’t carry me any more. Away from him, from the house, from everything I thought I loved. I saw our Jeep in the driveway as I ran, blurry in my teary-eyed vision, and I wondered if I should take that with me, but I kept running and running until I wound up on the industrial bridge on the outskirts of town. We had our first kiss there, him and I. I ran there without thinking...
