Mwuahahaha! Sometimes though, there are more interesting things in life than becoming an omnipotent Evil Overlord...
The next morning, Winston found a ball of paper crinkled up on the floor of his cubicle. Once opened, it read "Thanks." He peeked out of his cubicle and down the hall toward Tech Support. Julia was sitting there, her berry-red lips pursed in concentration as she typed away. During lunch break, Winston left the cafeteria on pretence of needing the bathroom an...
Farren Heights Park was really where they should have met to begin with. The Disciplinarians rarely ventured into the park unless summoned, and the park's caretakers, more often than not, would refrain from calling them for a few grams of cannabis or a bar of chocolate. "I ain't got any Belgian left," said the voice from the equipment shed behind the hardwa...
They didn't see the Sister again, and that was fine by Nate. The truck had been unloaded while they slept, and they were able to get out of dodge early the next morning before the 7:00 am deadline. Once they had left the FOB's envelope, Nate clambered up into the turret and lifted his faceplate, feeling the cool morning air against his face as Ketri guided t...
I woke with the sun, Anna and Lilith at either side of me, stirring drowsily in the dawn's light. Lilith's eyes opened, and I noticed she seemed brighter, as though she were glowing with renewed fire. Wordlessly, she led me from the bed and we dressed, leaving Anna to doze happily. We walked down from the tower and saw the Overlord's palace renewed. Dusty s...
His head was throbbing when he woke up. The Arbiter had done something to him, pressed a finger against his neck that made everything go melty and then black. Nate sat up to review his surroundings. He was in a small cell, about two meters by two meters. It had once been white but now had gone dingy and a bit yellowed. He was sitting on a ledge that served a...
Nobody really remembers when the first "superhero" came into being. As far as anybody can remember, they've just always been around. Super-powered individuals that exhibit abilities far beyond the norm and use their abilities to better the world around them through feats of heroism. Some of these heroes were born the way they were, a quirk of genet...
Shandi came down for breakfast but she avoided contact with anyone, an action noticed by both Rob and Milo. Instead of seeking out companionship, she wolfed down scrambled eggs and a slice of buttered toast, then grabbed a couple of sausage links, heading for the stables. Hannah welcomed her warmly and she joined the other girls, mucking out stalls and leadi...
Myron hurried up the tower's stone steps as fast as he could with the back pack weighing him down. The fact the his drab uniform was a little over-sized on him wasn't helping either, but they had told him that it was the closest thing that they had in his size. Pushing up his glasses, he saw that he still had a ways to go to the top, so he took a deep breath...
Winston's wrists were shackled to the wall above his head. He was naked, save for a pair of ill-fitting prison briefs, and the door of his tiny waiting cell was behind him. He wondered how long they would keep him in this repurposed broom cabinet before actually getting around to the sentencing, and, once he was sentenced, how the accommodations would change...
