Weekly Contest #371
Lost in the Supermarket “How long has it been since Emily disappeared?” Michelle whispered, her voice carrying through the darkness of the empty snack aisle. “Who’s to say?” Ethan replied. “Who even knows what day it is.” Jim was in charge of keeping track of the calendar. Jim disappeared long enough ago that no one knew what day it was. “Why?” “I just can’t help but think abou...

The Weight of PaperDay 1 I don’t normally explore houses this far off the main highway. That’s a great way to get yourself killed these days. The highways at least have other travelers around to witness, and we all know about traveler justice. But structures off the beaten path, especially empty ones?

The Mechanic Remy LeRayRemy could smell the acrid smell of blast pistol fire. The silence that echoed off the tavern’s previously raucous interior was nearly deafening. A place like this should only be quiet when it’s closed. His pistol was lazily smoking in his tight grip, the rising smoke entrancing. For a moment, he thought the smell of burnt metal might be coming from a hole in his chest where the officer’s energy round had burned through. He was wrong of course because he felt his heart thudding in his chest and heard the ragged intake ...
Weekly Contest #186
“You can’t always have it your way.” “I am aware of this Buddy, but you know that I am always right.” “And stop calling me Buddy, dammit! You know my name is Walter. Call me Walter. I’ve asked you a thousand times.” “But they used to call you Buddy. Do people not give nicknames to othe...
