Some Glitch
It happened so quickly that I’m unsure that it was real. One moment, I was walking down the cold streets of New York City. The sound of construction. The smell of hot dog water. Then, for just a moment, I felt sand give way under my feet. The warmth of the sun on my face. The sound of waves cashing in front of me, followed by the scent of salt water. For a moment, I felt like I was on the beach of some paradise. I just told myself to keep walking. That it was a glitch caused by stress.

Man No More
Pain. Unimaginable pain. Only for an instant and then, nothing. I'm strapped to something. A bed. I remember now. An operation. I look down at my hand. It's mostly metal, with something trying to pass for flesh over it. I remember now. They wanted a weapon they could control. A lapdog.

The skin of their frames brought them to levels of joy few get to experience. It was just him and her. They had stripped away their spacesuits. They were entwined.

The Haunting of Blackwood Manor
It was a dark and stormy night when Sarah arrived at Blackwood Manor. She had been hired as a live-in caretaker by the mysterious owner, who had never been seen in person. Sarah was desperate for money and didn't ask too many questions. But as soon as she crossed the threshold, she knew something was wrong. The air was thick with an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of rain tapping against the windows. Sarah set down her bags and took a deep breath. She could do this. She had to do this. She was broke and had nowhere else to go. As she made her way through the dimly lit halls, she couldn't shake the feeling that she was being watched. But when she turned around, there was no one there. Or was there?

Unknown
The pounding stopped suddenly. Lox unclenched her jaw and pressed her ear to the door her body had just been braced against. She held her breath as she listened, but couldn’t hear anything except the blood coursing through her body loud as bullets. The silence did nothing to ease the tension in her muscles. It didn’t make sense that the relentless attack would end so abruptly after hours.
