Soul Shifter
The summer heat was burning hot as Andy sat on a bale of hay in the field. His father’s farm in Missouri was suffering greatly. In fact, he heard talks of his father selling to a real estate firm that wanted to build a neighborhood on their land. But Andy had other worries as well. Every single member of his family were shifters. They could copy animals by looking into their eyes and change into them. Sometimes to intimidate enemies, sometimes to hide from enemies. Other times just to have fun. The festival of shifting was nearing and even though Andy had reached the age of sixteen, where shifters gain their ability, he had not been able to change. There was a particular animal that would be a shifter’s main animal, the creature that activates his power and the one creature he can change into over and over. He tried coyotes, ravens, foxes, dogs, even a cat, but nothing happened. Sometimes once they connect, it would take an hour at the most for the first time, but never longer than that.

Lilly
Lilly, the Little Dog that Could By Joshua Wheelon I woke up when the sun was just barely beginning to shine in the bed. I got up from my small bed at the foot of my master’s bed. I shook for a bit to wake myself up and ran over and looked at the window a couple of feet above my small, furry frame. I ran over to the bedroom door, which was creaked slightly open and looked at my gorgeous self in the mirror.

Death By Chocolate
Death by Chocolate By Joshua Wheelon Chris sat in the break room of the bakery. She was shaking profusely and even sweating a little bit. She had seen the dream a thousand times. Nightmare actually. Where she was murdered by a mysterious hooded figure. The dream was so blurry that she did not know how he murdered her, just that the scene was the same every single time, her lying dead in a pool of chocolate. Of her two jobs, this one was the place she would have a more likely chance of getting murdered. She gazed around the old break room which had one long table and a counter with a sink and a coffee maker. An old cupboard above with one of the doors open half an inch. Between the sink and against the door was a large garbage can that was half full and a broom sat next to the can. She then heard the footsteps of her boss coming towards the break area.
