White Tongue Blue Frog

"Hear he, hear he! Come one, come all for I have a story to tell. A story of a rare unique frog yet heroic and full of tragedy. Gathering around to listen to the tale of one Fabio the Crane-neck Frog Launcher!"Unlike most Milk Frogs, Fabio wore blue froggy skin with white birth markings across his body. His tongue was neither blue or teal, for his mouth muscle was actually pure white as a fluffy cloud.He had no mother nor father for they were eaten by murderous and ravenous cranes once upon an evening. Luckily enough, his parents set little ...

See You on the Other Side

"How many stars are out?" I asked Darlyn as we lie in the trenches, enjoying one's company. For the time being. We've been scouting for a good four hours and so far, the enemies hasn't done anything for us to be alarmed anyways. So, we just ended up looking at the stars for the time being since we were on night duty. "I'm counting 56," he replied without giving much of a second thought. "Wait a dang second," I started. "There is no way you've counted that many in a short period of time. I'm calling your bluff, Darlyn." "Call what you what, ...

Aiming for the Win

'Oh, how I loathe this dude right now," I said this to myself as Mason, the guy who I was referring to, processing to make his first move on the dartboard for the finals.It's awfully crowded here at the Layback Otter Bar in Texas. People are either here for the discounted beer or the state dart tournament. As for me, I'm here for me.Been a drinker for quite some time now. I forget how long it has been but it's been since I was discharged from the war. I like to drink my sorrow away so I don't feel anything.Now, you're probably asking why a d...

The Dungeon of Despair

WRITER'S NOTE: This is a retrospective of Ruth Grealth as she is kidnapped and captured by the Dark Wizard: Gerlard. The following passage can be found in "The Blacksmith's Nephew" Chapter 31. Please enjoy the reading. I was laying down on my hay bed just looking towards the ceiling of the cell. I felt powerless there in that cell I have been locked in for three days now. There was no way getting out of there! I have tried everything I could possibly think of, but always came short.It seemed that the only way out was to say “I do” ...

Solveig and Her Misadventures

WRITER'S NOTE: This is a retrospective of Solveig, an ex-Sea Otter Pirate, through her eyes. The following passage can be found in "The Fisher-Orc and His Voyage" Chapter 36. Please enjoy the reading. I've walked among the harbor and coastline as I went towards the east of Oliealand Island. “Who do they think they are?” I asked this in my mind frustratedly. “Leaving someone like me behind when I was so close to getting what I wanted. So much for being a Sea Otter in the past year and 9 months. I’ve never liked them! So who really needs ...

The Endless Hallway

"Where am I?" I asked this myself after opening my eyes to find myself in a strange and mysterious hallway. A strange and mysterious one where everything was all white but the doors which were all black. When I first woke up, I thought I was hallucinating or dreaming, but after pinching myself at least a few times I found out that I wasn't. I had somehow ended up in the middle of a hallway where there were no ends from what my eyes could see. Without my firefly of guidance to literally guide them with her purple grow, I walked away...

Doormat's First Flight

Weekly Contest #239

"Guess it's time to wake up," I said this out loud after the light came on as I also finally opened my eyes for what seemed like a long time.I made a quick yawn, and looked ahead. What I found was all kinds of home decorations. From "Welcome" signs to garden gnomes, to wind chimes, etc. Anything you know about home decors, they were all here. I was placed on the other side of it on an empty rack, just hanging there waiting for someone who wanted a doormat.Yes, a doormat you can simply place in front of your door and yes, I am sentient but ve...

Over-Cross: the Lookout Mountain

'I hate people and people hate me," I said this to myself as I was mediating up on the Lookout Mountain summit in peace.I can still remember the verse from John Chapter 15 back in Sunday school; [18] "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. [19] If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you." That verse always speak volumes on how the world works and operates. People will always hate others just like ...

Enter the Sea Vulture Pirates

WRITER'S NOTE: This is a retrospective of Orisimin Wate in Chapter 20 of "The Fisher-Orc and His Voyage" where him and the Warriors are confronted by pirates. This also happens to be Sean's favorite chapter. Please enjoy the reading. The female pirate and her crew walked in there like they own the place. Our innkeeper Eban and server Zenia felt rigid, as well as the rest of us warriors. Lemmy asked Eban, “Who are they again?” Our innkeeper replied shyly, “They call themselves the Sea Vulture pirates.” “P-p-pirates!?” shuttered our dwarven...

A Jogger and His Routine

Can we finally start now? I guess after this long, we finally can. It took us awhile but here we are and now, you want to know my story. Where to begin? Now, that's a good question. Hmmm...I guess the beginning is that obvious. But not too far from the beginning. Let's see; where to start? How about...oh, I got it. Okay, here we go...Picture this: It was a quiet autumn day when I went out for a regular jog. The roads I took were off by woodlands and people's backyards found in quite some distances. The trees were all naked while the leaves w...

Yukina & The Hidden Passage

"What on Earth is this place?" I asked my myself as I stumbled into a hidden room found at the UMass Boston's library . I have been in this library countless of times that it's practically a second home for me. After all this time, I never realized there was such a place. I thought I explored every the library had to offer. Apparently I was mistaken.The next thing I did was bring out my phone and use the flashlight to get a good lock on what I'm looking at. It was a dark and gloomy tunnel with cobwebs galore. Off to a great start. I hate spi...

Money Talks, So Does Anime

"So, you must be the new guy, eh?" asked someone standing right next to me without paying any attention. I was too absorbed with the One Piece manga I brought the other day. I'm at the Marineford Arc and it's incredibly insane.   Anyways, I look up to the voice who asked me aforementioned question. The voice belonged to a middle aged man who wore a green welding jacket and some black jeans. He was a French Canadian fellow with a couple of sideburns and a well kept hair. Once I saw him there, I answered while lending out my han...
