The Day The Devil Died
Revenge At The Leather And Lace
She smelled him as he entered the room. The stale scent of old tobacco, sweat and motor oil.
As he approached, she noticed the whites of his eyes were as yellow as his fingertips.
Her memories of him, as ashy as the end of his cheap cigarette.
His eyes narrowed as he smiled, and she watched the devil emerge. Her skin crawled as he took her arm.
When he shut the door of the back room, she took the opportunity to make her move.
Every ounce of hate and hurt and justice, plunged into his skin, through that needle.

Make Me Human
We had not even a scrap of shared language, being from different galaxies and all, but after a lifetime of miscommunications I more or less knew what to do. It took a while, but we eventually established a sort of rudimentary sign language. I realized pretty quick that my two community college classes in ASL were not going to be much use here.

The Drag Racer
“Are you ready?” the official shouted over the sounds of the diesel tow vehicle cackling alongside my team and I, the conversations and shouts of inebriated fans and the chilling night air as it passed through the eye port of my helmet. I instinctively push in the clutch pedal, pull the brake handle back and open the throttle blades located inches behind my head with my right foot. I smell the gas from the small bottle my crew chief uses to prime the engine behind me as he pours it into the open injector hat.
