On a clear, cloudless day, the graveyard seems like the best place to instrospect. Eerie as that sounds, the village graveyard is rather pleasing to the eye. Bougainvilleas sweep the cold crypts of the deceased, while dense mahogany trees embrace the earth with their bountiful shade and the sunlight playfully tries to break past their armour. Nature comes alive in a place of death. It almost feels...

They say life goes by quickly. I can't say that yet, though. I'm only sixteen years old. What could happen to me at this age? Nothing really. I might be saying this too early though.. I actually, am. My grandma always used to my hold my hand and tell me how much I meant to her. She told me when she died she would always be watching over me, to make sure I was okay. I believed her but now, I don'...

It is never silent sharing your thoughts and perceptions through the e-net. How can it be when you’re sharing your consciousnesses with nearly every member of the human race? In the two hundred years since humanity developed the e-net, where human scientists created a means of uploading minds and molding them into a single collective mind containing the whole human history. I uploaded my min...

1. Hal’s eyes watered, as he stood up on the hill as he saw that there were no other humans on the colony, except for Zal, Hal’s brother and a few others. There were only twenty people here and all working in primitive conditions and trying to survive on this strange new world, because that was how many people had been onboard their ship. Now Hal was taking stock of how many people ...

I remember gazing into the dark, empty room that once belonged to my brother Chaz. It had been exactly two years since I had seen him last or even thought about him. Chaz and I had always been close, so it was painful to think about anything bad that could've happened to him. Murdered, kidnapped, and tortured ran through my mind, and it drove me crazy when I thought about all the things that coul...

She holds me in her arms. I feel warm. Warm as I could ever feel. I know I love her. I smile and she kisses my forehead. I suddenly feel better. "Go to sleep, Little Bear." she tells me calmly. That's my nickname, Little bear. My eyes shut and I hear her feet leave the room and the door shut. I drift off to a deep sleep until morning.When I wake up, I find her and my mom in the kitchen. ...

One day there were these six scientists that were trying to find a cure for cancer. But something went wrong during the experimentation and an umbrella virus was created. The virus spread across the world and infected billions of people. As a result of the virus the infected people were starting to turn. Their skin was cracked and a weird gray color and their eyes were black and blood shot. The s...

After a few more hours of walking around in the store we accumulate about four more bags of clothes, a few more bags, and make-up (for Aubrey, of course). We, then, leave Hot Topic and just drive around town looking for a grocery store to get more food. We immediately find a small gas station. I stop at a gas pump to fill up the tank while Aubrey’s goes inside to find some snacks and drinks...

A week ago, a friend came over to my place. After some laughs and a few beers, he told me with a straight face- "My girlfriend is the most beautiful girl I have ever known. And I am so lucky to be with her." Okay. That's not what he said. He told me that she is a crazy and irrational girl. And she needed some counselling. When a guy meets the girl of his dreams, its heaven for him. The d...

I am the last human in the world. Alone I stand waiting for life to end. Never had i thought I'd reach this importance, but yet it's not all that great. I have no one to share it with. I would tell you my name but honestly, I dont know. If someone had been here to remind me I might have known. but like I said, I'm alone and afraid. No one to protect me from the dark or what might lay at night. No...
