Sci Fi

Starsign, Chapter 5
In the soft light of her kitchen, Melody thought she had been wrong before--the alien’s skin was not sickly, merely a soft shade of blue that the harsh light of her phone had washed nearly green. With their upper body free of both suit and helmet, she could also now see that there was a pattern of stripes in a slightly darker shade that rippled down the length of their body. Their skin also…shimmered slightly. As though it was damp. Or slimy. Was it?

We both stared into the sky looking at the stars without talking for awhile . Kissing and cuddling under the half moonshine . I told her to look north . Our brightest and most popular star Fosavian was dominating the sky at this time . With the other stars looking like decorations in comparison . I started to talk to her . “ Legend has it that if you follow that star while on the sea . It will lead you to amazing treasure . The legend also goes that if you follow the star in space , that you’ll receive powers of unimaginable proportions .”

The Journey
In the vast ocean of space, there was a feeling of peace and tranquility. At least, that's what Michael felt as he stared out at the stars from the cockpit. Like fireflies, the stars twinkled. Looking down at the monitors, Michael checked his trajectory along with his routine system check.

Mirror Mirror
I knew I was in trouble the moment I saw the body in the mirror laid out like a crumpled marionette. Ribbons of black and white, her cut strings, radiated from her sleeves. Bright red lipstick was smeared across half of her face. Flakes of dried mascara trailed down her cheeks. Filmy blue eyes stared dully into mine. I pressed my face to the mirror for a couple of minutes, searching for any sign of my Reflection or anyone else in the room on the OtherSide. Nobody but the dead girl looked back at me. I ran to the bathroom but I only saw traces of dirt and, maybe, flecks of blood in the sink. No sign of him anywhere. I went back to the bedroom and sat on the floor in front of the girl.

We fed the borkas and had a good time . We’re not really supposed to feed them but some of us in the village do . A lot of them have become dependent , so we kind of have to . Whenever the numbers get high the butchers , hunters , and other villagers just kill a few for free meat . It’s kind of dark when I think about it . I would never bring it up to Goldy though . I’d imagine it to be a mood killer .

Orion's Dragon
A dragon’s existence was nothing short of extraordinary. In the Proioxis star system the sightings of supernovas were not only signs of wonder, but of new birth. Each time a star died a new dragon was brought into being. The great beasts that flew through the forests of the galaxy, their bodies a mesmerizing shade of colors as if made from the embers of the dying stars. They danced among the cosmos, scales shining brighter than any obstacle they passed. Each dragon was at least the size of the smallest space cruiser, large enough to fit an entire town of people on board. Yet for their size and iridescent scales, sightings were rare, and photos ever rarer. The few photos that existed were blurry, the dragon’s outline nothing more than a faint blur that could just as easily be a rather large cloud of gas and dust. When humanity had reached for the stars thousands of years ago, they hadn’t expected to find the creatures, and it seemed the dragons were determined to remain as elusive as possible. So, humanity tore their eyes from the beasts and looked to the other mysteries of the galaxy. In their minds, they thought that if they explored the galaxy’s every other facet they would have to run into the dragons sooner or later. Nothing could remain unknown forever.

When they first walked into my room we all smiled at first . We couldn't hold back the joy of seeing each others faces after losing in a battle so bad . Then the smiles faded and we started to talk . Bulls Eye was the first one to break the silence out of us three . “ Man , we sure got our asses handed to us by that robed guy . It turns out that we were all saved by the village chief ! “ That statement surprised me , the village chief was tough but he wasn’t necessarily known for his fighting capabilities . Then while he was laughing out loud and noticing the shock on my face . Bulls Eye then continued on to explain . “ It turns out that the guy loved the shape of the chiefs head ! He told the chief he loved his head but that he hated our buildings for having imperfect angles . He then ran off and left the village without saying another word . We got beat up by a weirdo guys , we were completely annihilated .”
