Before Time

Praire Rose

The sun hung low in the late afternoon sky, bleeding gold across the cracked pavement outside the school gates. Long shadows stretched like fingers over the sidewalk, tangling with backpacks, scuffed sneakers, and the restless bodies of children finally released from classrooms. Laughter rang out in uneven bursts, sharp and bright, colliding with shouted goodbyes and the rumble of distant traffic. It was the particular chaos of after school—warm, noisy, and fleeting. Joshua sat on a weathered wooden bench just beyond the gates, its paint pee...

Sky and Misty Two Different Elementals

Praire Rose

Submitted to Contest #83

I wake up to the sound of Amber cooking who knows what. I walk quietly into the living room and sit on the couch comfortably peering into the kitchen. I then hear a noise that sounds like an elephant, and a snake yelling at one another. I freeze in terror of what might be lurking behind me. I feel something run up my arm making me feel numb and tingly. I scream at the top of my lungs fearing the worst. “You fail.” I hear a faint voice behind me in say it a rasp tone. “Fail what?” I retort knowing it was Tera behind me. I turn around to look...

Master?

Pele analyzed the people around it. Miguel elbowed the absentminded android. Pele faced him, putting on what humans call a smile. “Yes friend?” Miguel points to the board in front of them. “Tell me your secret, please. You’re the only person that can beat Silas.” The pieces were in an order so perfect, Pele didn’t want to ruin it. Yet in order to get back on schedule Pele had to. He explained in a way that looked to have broken Miguel. “Did I overload your processing chip?” Miguel shook his head, before looking up. “Wait, so you’re telling...

Evil Intentions

The skies were gloomy. Not yet raining, but not likely that rain would start to fall. Kat peered out the foggy window. Pat and Scat talked away about school between themselves ignoring their triplet's presence. Not that Kat cared, time went by too fast to care. He sips his strawberry smoothie and watches the activity in the store. His monochrome phone starts flashing its light on the table. He flips it over and checks the number. Xera. Long time since any villain outside his group had called him. Leaving the booth, he heads into the bathroom...

Susan the spy

Praire Rose

Submitted to Contest #55

Can you keep a secret? Well I hope you do. Susan is a spy… not any spy, the neighborhoods spy. And the best part, no one knows. Susan jumped up at the sound of her bedroom door being knocked on. “Coming” says Susan as she closes her notebook and goes to the door. Before she can open the door, Kai rushes in the room. “I could have been getting dressed in here” says Susan huffing. She starts writing in her notebook: Kai’s done it again I need to tell him to stay out of my room unless it is an emergency. Also, I have missed him dearly, glad he ...

Elemental Barriers

Praire Rose

Submitted to Contest #54

The looming sky made Herron upset. This was the opposite of what he wanted. He controlled storms, after all he was an Elemental. Only problem was that he could not reverse the storms he made. Out of all the Elementals he struggled with reversing his effects that he caused. He needed it to grow smaller not bigger. A rolling rumble filled the sky. Ren laid under a tree staring at the angry sky. He sits up slightly. "Uh.... Herron don't you get me soaked." He side glares Ren. The boy lazily points to the sky, which looked darker than before. He...
