Sci Fi
The Chosen One
As the sun set on the small town, an old man sat on his porch, lost in thought. Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the sky, growing larger and larger until it crashed into the nearby woods. He decided to look into it because he was that curious. As he drew closer to the site, he saw a strange object that had clearly come from another world. A voice inside his head told him that he was chosen to help save Earth from impending destruction. He knew then that he must act quickly to rally others to this cause before it is too late.

They graduated college, became successful and took care of us when we got old. We held hands every day in the retirement home. We died at the same time, holding hands. They buried us next to each other. The chemicals from the factory spill brought us back to life as zombies. We ate all our children. We slept in our coffins when we got full.

Out There
Panic surging. Spaceship damaged. Power waning. Oxygen depleting. Time wasted. Crew desperate. Heroics lost. Earth unreachable. Frantic repairs. Signal weak. Feedback blurted. Transmission sent. Stars mocking. Mind slipping. Silence deafening. Hope waning. Seconds matter. Faint blip. Garbled response. Coordinates shared. Rescue imminent. The doubt. The wait. No words. A breath.

Chop Chop
I was running from my ex girlfriend. She was chasing me through the restaurant. “Come on Eddie, you always wanted to know what our secret ingredient was. Now that you dumped me, I really want to show you,” she said, smiled and lunged at me with the knife. She missed. She threw it at me and hit my neck. “I’m sorry, honey, we just weren’t getting along,” I said before falling to the ground. “Chop chop,” was the last thing she said to me before I passed out. She then cut me up and served me as a side dish!
