Symmetra sat, cross-legged, in the precise centre of her bed. The hotel room the Vishkar Corporation had booked for her was very nice. Very neat. Symmetra could picture every detail of it, even with her eyes closed. Vishkar knew her needs, and with their riches China was no different to anywhere else. In here, anyway. Down on the streets it was so busy, so d...
Long considered a possibility by theoretical physicists, Heavy Matter was proven real when a meteorite only 3 feet in diameter came to earth in Canada's remote Northwest Territory with an explosion that left a crater over a half mile wide. Only a few hundred Native Americans and their Caribou herds were killed, and the strong polar jet stream kept the worst...
Baroness was completely unprepared for me. I think she knew in her heart I was coming for her, yet she made no effort to hide herself or shirk away. Perhaps she felt safe now that White Queen was back, like their commander had perhaps neutered me, but the bitch was finding new and sluttier ways to tease me than anything I'd seen so far. Her jumpsuit was gett...
I sat at the bar just as I'd done so many nights before, hoping to find the girl of my dreams. Actually, by this time in the evening I was just hoping to find some girl who would go home with me. I was about half tanked and feeling morose, I had no business trying to meet women in a bar I was just too shy. Women wanted men who were confident, who knew what t...
It was the end of a cold, long but fulfilling day. The bright bustling city dimmed to a lowly tired pace as people disappeared in the darkness of the suburbs. The mindless workers swarmed the stations like flies around a light. "Ahh... I'm so full." A tipsy voice spewed out. "we shouldn't have had ordered extra deserts and chocolate shake... Especially with...
Larsen sighed as he ran the snake into the plumbing. It was the eighth plugged toilet of the day. He glanced at his watch and saw he was only four hours into his shift. "Why can't you people maybe try some fiber?" he called to the vacationing couple under the sheets in the stateroom. His diet was loaded with broccoli, beans, and corn. These damn cruise ship...
These are my reluctant New Year's Eve Resolutions. Can't you tell? I'm posting them late. Normally, I don't make them because I don't keep them and then I feel bad that I failed in my quest to better myself in the New Year. This year is different. This year, I'm motivated. This year, I'm going to do it. My New Year's resolution #1 is that I'm going to exer...
Dee Fisher smiled wryly at her reflection in the mirror as she stood scrutinising her appearance in the staff room mirror. Her night shift had been gruelling, a twelve hour stint in St Luke's A&E, and while there were no gunshot wounds or stabbings to care for in such a small city's local hospital, there had been no shortage of alcoholics, drunken men fighti...
[not endorsed or authorised by the BBC] Chapter 1 - science friction The time machine known as The Tardis spun silently across the space-time vortex, its time rotor humming happily to itself as it traversed the multi-layered continuum. The Doctor stood at the console, frowning slightly as he manipulated a dial. One of the readings did not seem right. He m...
Authors note; My apologies for taking so long with this, other projects and the holidays caused me to slow done, plus I wanted to change direction a bit. I have no clue how long this will run or how long it will take to complete, I'm back at work now, so expect the next part to be at least two weeks away. Thanks for reading, I hope you like it and as alwa...
