Subject Nine
The last thing I remember was a van pulling up near the ally that I and some others called home. They opened their doors and offered out cups of hot soup and bread, along with hot drinks. Very welcomed on that cold night, but it all got fuzzy after drinking the coffee …

Zulu Squad
It was silent as the dawn approached on the Bragmen’s airforce base. For the soldiers on watch, it was another uneventful night. Their shift would soon end, and they would return to the barracks. To get some much needed rest. As they patrolled the perimeter, they scanned the grounds for any intruders or enemy agents. But they never really expected any. They hardly bothered looking up at the sky, why would they? They had a powerful radar scouring the area for anything that put off a heat signature and a control tower full of trained air traffic controllers armed with binoculars and spotlights. There was no known aircraft that could breach the base without being detected, stealth or otherwise

The Kill List pt. 1
Tears began rolling down the cheek of James Harper on his flight home from Afghanistan. His tears weren't for the innocent children becoming casualties of war or because of the long, exhausting years he spent in hell; they weren't triggered by the horrid screams of his victims replaying through his mind every night or from the memory of seeing his lifelong best friend decapitated two weeks earlier; they weren't tears of joy for receiving an honorable discharge after ten years as a highly decorated military sniper;

Dating Deal-Breakers
As I sat across from him at the quaint little café, sipping my latte and gazing into his piercing blue eyes, I thought I had found the one. The way he smiled at me, the way he listened to me, the way he made me laugh – it all seemed so perfect. But little did I know, beneath the charming facade, lay a multitude of dating deal-breakers, waiting to shatter my heart into a million pieces.

Fused
All over the world, children have been acquiring random superpowers they cannot control. It's been an entire month, and the world is in chaos. It's being called "The Superhuman Epidemic," and the leaders of the world have executed a kill order on all super-abled children. However, it's not easy killing a child with bulletproof skin, and a lot of adults (especially those with children of their own) cannot morally allow the slaughter of human children, regardless of their "unnatural powers." A worldwide civil war has broken out between the supporters of the genocide and the super-abled children with their allies.

Gilded Apples; Chapter 6
I'm not grounded, but I certainly can't go. I can't tell Nadia and Celine why I couldn't go though. I suppose I could lie and say I got grounded, but that would also require coming up with a reason why I was grounded. I end up going with the easiest lie I can think of: the dinner party. Nona was coming for the day and some guests would be coming early. Family obligations, blah, blah, blah.
