It was your job. The red dress, black shoes and the beautiful make-up. The silken scarf and the fine perfume. The mirror showed a great beauty, you however, know better. It is the same as usual. The party is full of drunken guests and expensive food, you weave through the crowd making small talk and fake smiles. Silently you slip through an open door. A darkened corridor greets you, you know where to go and sneak through into the third office on the right. Inside there is a desk, it has a drawer with a false bottom. You remove it, inside are files with the key to the identity of the man's killer. You take the files and leave nothing behind. While leaving through the corridor, a guard spots you. You sigh and think that you had hoped to leave without murdering anybody. You turn with a silver knife and quickly slit the man's throat. Later you wash the blood off the knife, it is clean but you cannot stop seeing the blood on the knife. The mirror shows a beautiful young wom...

'Freedom,' Said the Holy Book, 'Is a poor man's dream. It is nothing but an illusion. You would do well to ignore the fanciful imaginings and return to Earth and help your friends and family.' He was a poor man, and this was his dream. 'Work hard, give freely,' Said the Holy Book, 'And you shall receive.' He had nothing to give, he worked hard already. 'Aspire to be great,' Said the Holy Book, 'Work to achieve it and you will be great.' He only wanted to be free. 'Suicide is a dishonorable way to leave,' Said the Holy Book, 'It implies selfishness and unwillingness to share with others.' It wasn't going to be so bad. He picked up the knife, gleaming sharp and made the first cut. Blood flowed out like water breaking through a dam. Again and again he sliced. Again and again the sharp edge cut through skin flesh and bone like paper. The knife made a clattering sound on the floor. He says, ...

You toss and turn in your sleep. The sheets wrinkle as you mess the neat lines of your bed. You are dreaming. Dreaming evil dreams. The voices whisper. Whisper of how you could have your revenge, they call it vengeance, but you are wary of them and ignore them. But you cannot ignore them in your sleep. They show you the future if you listen, of you finally giving Them their dues. You are seemingly happy and you agree. They tell you of things you don't want to remember, plans of things that will put into action if you just listen. And giving up, just to make them stop, you agree. You carry out every step, every item and you put their plans into action. In the morning, you hear of how They died in the night. The voices are happy with you and will gladly go away if you just do this one little thing. You have already done much worse, you are a murderer, they can't make you do worse. You agree. What do you think? Comment and tell me below!

A baby girl is born. Her name is Christina. It's the eleventh of August, two o'clock in the afternoon. Five years later and she is five. It's her birthday, children from her class laugh and play in the sun. Christina blows out the candles on her cake, she wishes for a new toy. Ten years later and Christina is fifteen.

Twenty five years later and Christina is seventy five, she carries her grand-daughter onto her ...

Death comes swiftly in the night. Stars shine and the moon glows in the black canvas of sky. Death searches for those near the End. In a land of War and Blood, Death finds a hospital tent filled with fitfully sleeping patients that had been injured in the fighting. A man lies awkwardly on the bed, his left leg and arm had been broken and he had several gunshot wound oozing blood on his right leg and stomach. The bandages are soaked in blood. They do everything they can to help him, but he will not survive the night. He gasps out his last breath, brown fevered eyes seeing Death as he dies. Death tucks his soul under Death's cloak and leaves. In a Modern and Busy city, Death arrives at a rather large house. There, he finds stuffed in the cupboard under the stairs a small child. The child has bruises the size of a man's hand on her arms, legs and throat. Marks distinctive of a belt pepper her back and arms. Several large gashes bleed on her forehead as she tries not to cry. ...

The future is mysterious. It can be as dark or a bright as you wish it to be. This future however, is not as bright as you think. Sixty-three years ago, six decades and three years ago, researchers sounded the alarm. It was time to start turning over a new leaf, to combat the impacts of global warming. Some listened. Others didn’t. Such a small thing global warming was back then. So far away the causes seemed. Then, the global temperature went up a degree. That changed things, now everybody was aware of global warming, and knew that it was taking its toll. Deserts across Texas, floods everywhere and ice caps melting, everyone was clamoring for a solution. None came. Now, sixty-three years later, we look back and laugh at ourselves scrambling around for a solution. Sixty-three years later, the overall global temperature has gone up four degrees. Now, as I am writing this, I think back on how glorious the world seemed sixty-three years ago. Sixty-three years ago, the world s...
