Ancestral
There was a certain mystique about the box that lay in front of me. One that I couldn't get over. I had to know what was inside of it, there was no second thought about it. I had already decided if it was a bomb or some sort of chemical agent meant to dispatch me, that I would be ok with that. What did I have to live for anyhow?

The Teller
“In twelve days, you’ll find everything you’re looking for, Ms. Harmsworth. You’ll be able to pay everything back in no time at all,” I told her. The future I saw for her was bleak, unable to pay back the loan the bank was going to give her, so they would foreclose on her house and sell off her assets. It didn’t matter to me, the bank was paying me to ignore the negative visions and use my reputation as the world’s greatest psychic to convince people to take a loan.

We tried to hide amongst the trees . As they got closer to us , we knew we were spotted . They were just trying to play it cool until they could get close enough to surround us or something . John yelled for everyone to run and we took off . I said this way and pointed in the direction that I first heard the louder fight happening . If it was Draco and the robed guy this would be the perfect time for us to provide backup . I explained this to everyone as we ran .

Just when I thought I couldn’t breathe anymore , I heard a loud but muffled scream . Yes I said to myself as I slowly regained my breath. Bulls Eye must’ve got it done it just in the nick of time . When she was focused on taking me and Jerry and John , out he must’ve got her right in the nose or mouth. She must’ve been dying because her magical cloth started to slowly disappear . I guess it was a fatal blow .

Break Room Talk
"Kobayashi. For me, it always starts and ends with him. I have no one else to blame but me. Ever since I was a kid, he always got me into trouble. Now I'm suffering the consequences of his actions like always. Kobayashi… Sometimes, I wonder what it would have been like if he hadn't found me. I could've lived an everyday life, but that would've been too boring. No going back, and no regrets!" Jaina explained with her slight southern accent in the breakroom of the twenty-four-hour WallyMart that employed her. She surveyed the empty chairs occupying the tables surrounding her with a lazy eye and tried with a desperate effort not to pay heed to the loud tick-tock of the clock on the clinical-colored breakroom wall.

I, Robot Book Review — Isaac Asimov
Asimov is one of the greatest visionary science-fiction authors of all time. For me, he is the greatest. I love the fact that he writes about robots, space, and the socio-political future of the world. In some aspects, he is a prophet. How much of a prophet? Only time will tell.

In the distance I heard a loud explosion . The impact of the explosion was so loud that I guess our two leaders must be engaged in combat . It must be the robe guy and Draco fighting I thought . Still they seemed to be a far distance away from me . I decided that it might be best to continue to slowly making my way through the town . My job was to see if I could help somebody else or take out another enemy . It was also that I had Jerry beside me. A few minutes later I noticed another small skirmish taken place . Except it was it was way closer than the first explosion . Jerry noticed it as well , we both took off running towards the sound .

Extreme Violet
At least with me, he would claim, you know I’ll always be right on time, and as his colleagues got to know Pete better, they learned the truth of this claim. A genuine knack for arriving at every important meeting, every social occasion and life’s decision with energy and focus to spare, seemed to be an important part of his arsenal of skills. It must have always been the case for him; nobody could ever recall Pete Anholts missing what mattered, at work or at home.

Starsign, Chapter 6
“I’m Melody, if we’re doing real introductions here.” The alien stared at her, blinked, then cocked their head. “Ah…forgive me. Maybe the translator is…not as sophisticated as I’d hoped. Your name is Music?”

This time I decided to dodge her sword attack instead of blocking . Seeing as how far she sent me flying before. I barely dodged it and was panting while anticipating her next attack . After the last attack she started concentrating with both of her hands . Her hands were soon to be covered in a large ball of light . It was twice as large as the one that she launched at me before. Shit I thought I wish my drill absorbed light just like my drill is able to absorb electricity.
