Two Swans in Troubled Seas

The church bells rang out like gentle heartbeats as my mother fixed the veil on my head proper, tears dampening the corners of her warm hazel eyes as she smiled at me with a sigh and soon hurried off to join the other guests within the chapel, family and friends of both sides, unity at last in a holy sanctuary, even if only for now, even if the world may never understand it, not really. Bird song all around like God’s colorful and dull angels of earth knew of the significant occasion at hand too, my father’s arm linked with mine as the chape...

Stirfry Returns In: Time Catastrophe! 2

I don't know how we even manage to survive it... traveling at the speed of light I mean. No that's not suppose to be a Queen reference, but if you get it; good for you!"Just a few... more... minutes..." Glowy Sea Kitty's voice gets a little cut off every few seconds as he speaks, it's hard to talk while you're blasting through the fabrics of universes and traveling through time and space.I, Stirfry, cannot help but wonder! Where to now?You know?Since we're blasting through a literal wormhole-I then land somewhere with a loud thud and "Oof!",...

Stirfry In: Time Catastrophe!

"Ack! Stirfry, where are we?!" Mercury, landed with a soft thud, Demise, D-7 and Geode, landed soon after. Well, and me, Stirfry! Mercury, sat up as she fixed her yellow goggles above her head and stood up, dusting off her light yellow small pleated skirt, "Where'd you bring us now?!". D-7, being the TV-head gal she is, had a little glitch on her screen as her orange sloth lookin' arms fixed her TV antennas, oh! Did I mention she's orange? "My bowtie's gone..." she said sadly as she came back online and looked around, one side of her screen ...

The Adventures Of Ari and Charlie: Ari's Keepin' Secrets

Hi, guys... Look, I don't really know how to do this like she does... Charlie, here. I'll... I'll just... start it off like this...It was like any other day, woke up, got ready, went to school, you get it. "So, where should we stop by today?" I smiled and asked Ari as we continued down the streets around the square. Uh, not the literal street, the sidewalks. This sucks! I suck! I'm terrible at this! "Good question! I have no idea! How about we head to that ice cream place where that random party bus happened to stop at that one time?" she re...

The Adventures Of Ari and Charlie: The Wedding Of Doom

“Ugh, why are we even here? Couldn’t we have just stayed with Billy?”“Why are you asking me that?”“Sheesh, oh right, you’re too stupid to know am I right, Ari?”“Hey… I only asked why you asked!”I smacked him in the back of his head as we sat at a table that our family was assigned to at our cousin, Felipe’s wedding. I mean, it was pretty awesome, very… white… but awesome. Girl he was going to marry was awesome. Food was awesome… my gosh the food was amazing… it was just…“Ari… I’m sorry. Alright? Can you just tell him for me?” Charlie asked m...

All Thanks to You… Part 3

“Oh! OHHH!” I exclaim noticing my very 80s outfit, A-ha’s ‘Take On Me’ begins playing in my head as I look around in awe.We’re in the 80s! “1982 to be specific.” Marina tells me with a smile. I smile back, I’m so FRICKIN excited to be here! It’s the 80s for goodness sake! “Ha! All my research on this era finally paid off!” I cheer. Benson scoffs. “Anyway, we need to figure out where we are.” “WOW! This place is so cool!” Benny yells. Everyone turns to us. “Geez, you turned way too many heads Benny… We should get outta here.” We start walking...

All Thanks to You… Part 2

YEAH! Oh wait… Oh! Hi! Welcome back! Or should I have just said— never mind, it matters not! As you can see, we seem to be back in the sixties… or seventies I haven’t seen what everyone’s wearing yet but I appear to look, or be dressed as…What am I wearing?“You look like a hippie.” Marina tells me. She’s right, I forgot she’s telepathic... It’s too bad it’s not the seventies, coulda seen Fleetwood Mac live…  “I agree…” she answers me. “Hey kid, where’d you bring us now?” I turn to Benson just to see him in some ridiculous sixt...

The Land Lost in Time: The Age of War

Long ago… There was a time on earth where we roamed free beside the other creations. We weren’t judged, we didn’t judge each other for how we looked, or our colors. We loved one another and lived in peace. That was until time went by as fast as lightning in the sky and the human race settled the ends of the earth. Not even the oceans are safe anymore. Mankind feared us, chased us, killed us… many of us managed to escape and hid deep in the oceans and forests but others…The Dodos.Dire Wolves.Tasmanian Tigers.The beautiful Passenger Dove.Now m...

All Thanks To You…

It seems it’ll last forever, all eternity, this…Falling into an abyss.Yet here I am, still writing. How did I get here? Well, I’ve been asking the characters here the same thing. Nobody knows. Did I write myself here? Maybe. Everything I’ve been writing adds on to this story. So maybe if I just write where we’ll be next… we’ll be okay. Oh, I hope so.“HEY!”I jump. “What?!” I shout back at him. “Stop writing and find some kinda way to help- ” His speaking quickly turns into screaming. That stupid nerd in the cyborg suit, thinks he knows it all...

The Land Lost in Time: The First Encounter and The Explorer's Lost Journal

(Hemophobia Warning (Fear of Blood) and Violence warning)"Where'd you find it?" she asked me, as I held onto the manuscript. "I don't know, my father gave it to me." I walked a few steps away from my horse. "He told me it was a page out of my great grandfather's journal." I looked up at the unending plains, as a storm moved in closer. "He was an explorer?" I turned to face her; she was mounted on a paint horse. Most likely stolen. But who was I to ask a question like that? "Yes, yes he was. You familiar with him?". She dismounted her horse a...

The Adventures of Ari and Charlie: Charlie and The Not So Good Ending

It was just one of those boring old days. If you ask me at least.We're so much like NPCs! It's ridiculous! It's always wake up, eat breakfast, brush your teeth, get dressed, go to school all that and more! Breakfast isn't even real! It was made up by some religious dudes working for food companies! If I remember correctly at least. That's not the point though. That's just a story for another day. But right now, we're focusing on, Charlie. "Ari!" he whispered to me in class. "What?" I asked. "What does 'eavesdropped' even mean?!". Let me expl...
