November 16, 2009 The house wasn't the same anymore. It seemed so hollow. She had tried so hard to move on but everything reminded her of the fact that he wasn't here anymore. She ran her hands across the cold dresser he used to sit on and brush his teeth while she took up the bathroom. He would talk to her with a full mouth of toothpaste from here as she d...
This is my Winter Holiday Contest Entry for 2008. Enjoy! --Selena ----- Twenty-six degrees below zero, almost total darkness and white-out conditions, but Mary didn't notice any of it as Finn trudged up behind her, the thick cloud of his breath misting over her shoulder as he watched her work. "What's your depth?" He had to yell to be heard over both the...
A boar wandered through the forest, shaking its shaggy head in the morning chill. It was thirsty and it rooted in the earth for the smell of water. It knew the way to the nearest pond, having been to this particular watering hole numerous times over its life, but the scent was something to follow. It snorted and huffed and trotted away.

1year 7months and 2weeks. Yet looking at his face now from a distant it felt like only a matter of hours ago. You see, I'm sat here on my way to work on the train, and across from me, having not given me a second glance, is the one man who has been imprinted on my brain. I could feel that fire in my belly recognise his touches, looking across the train at hi...

The door appeared to belong to the closed up building, not the apartments connected to it and the alcove was deep enough to fit them both and keep the heavy rain from reaching them. Reece and Anna had gone out for dinner and were supposed to go see a...
Surprisingly, my one night stand with Nikos didn't end too badly. One might say, it was quite fortuitous. We didn't do the 'awkward silence' afterward. I stayed the night, and woke up the next morning to find him downstairs and cooking breakfast for the both of us. (Unfortunately he had put his clothes back on). We exchanged numbers; with a promise of 'I'll...
Chapter 4 -- The three of us and a new friend. When I got back to the dorm Tracy was awake and reading the tablet. Her face was a mixture of shock and curiosity. "Be right back, I need a quick shower, ran like 10k this morning." Tracy nodded distractedly, not looking up from the tablet. I grabbed my stuff and headed for the shower. The run back had cleare...
WAR Chapter 1 It has been twelve years and six more children since we returned to Bortinan (EE4). We now have a thriving colony here and were looking forward to our earth brothers' arrival in about ten more years when we got the shock of all time. The Constellation and 5 huge cargo ships entered orbit. A safe orbital path I might add as we cleared out all...
BOOK 1 MIDGAR CHAPTER 1 Aeris Gainsbrough walked down the street in Sector 8. Her boots clapping against the stone sidewalk. She wore a pink dress that came to just above her ankles and her matching short coat kept her warm on the late Midgar night. Her flower basket was a lovely woven brown, the same color as her hair, and it flapped against her side as...
~ Previously on Futa Futcha ~ OK ...so ...to recap ...the ancient device found on a long dead planet a long time ago in the depths of space was finally unlocked by some hugely clever male scientist, though not that clever it seemed as it unleashed a genetic plague that wiped out every human male on earth for now and evermore, leaving only the female of the...
