Weekly Contest #337
The fluorescent lights of the Catalyst Creative Institute hummed their usual Tuesday morning melody as Meg crouched behind the supply closet door, her heart hammering with anticipation. She could hear Leo's footsteps echoing down the hallway, At twenty-six, she should probably have outgrown this kind of thing, but the joy of making Leo jump never got old. "BOO!" Leo shrieked, stumbling backward and nearly dropping his coffee. "Jesus Christ, Meg! You gaved me a heart attack " Meg doubled over with laughter, her navy blue cardigan slipping off...

The Symphony of Shadows The city quivered like prey, its towers rattling with anxious light, its alleys whispering the rot beneath the glow. I slid between its cracks, not the illness itself but the whisper of its fever, a presence too patient to be seen until too late. And in that suffocating hush, I fixed upon the only heartbeat I craved—Nova. Tonight, I would not let my Bambi escape me. Oakhaven, with its charming cobblestone streets and quaint coffee shops, was a stubborn adversary. Their unwavering belief in their mundane lives, their b...
