Short Story 3

This is another short story that I wrote but I had no reason for this one. I wrote this for the simple reason to write something. It's darker than what I usually write and I love how it ended. I forced my sister to read it and she seemed to enjoy it but she may have just been saying that. So if it's horrible blame her for lying to me. Anyway, this is me putting myself out there once again so I hope you enjoy.

Happy Reading,

A beautiful revenge

I don’t know how I got here or who this person is but that doesn’t stop me from watching him. Silently, I stand there watching this stranger as he sleeps. In a bed that is also unfamiliar to me. Leaving crosses my mind briefly but something is holding me in place.

I was drawn to this house. I was walking in the dark of night, along the empty streets and this place called to me. It was easy for me to slip into the dark, silent house. Not even a creak was made as I crept up the stairs. The only sounds heard throughout the house was the soft snores from the man in front of me and a dripping sound.

Drip, drip, drip it was a constant noise and it was close. It was in the same room as the sleeping man and myself. The man stirred gently in his sleep rolling over to his back revealing his face to the cold night air and to me. Continue Reading

Okay, I've been putting this off for months now but here it is. Here is my short story, this is the first ever short story that I have written. This is the first thing that I have written that I have been brave enough to post to the public. I am putting myself out there because I have to, well I have to eventually and someone once said "there's no time like the present." And yes I know that isn't the entire quote but oh well, here is my short story. I hope you enjoy and please be nice, my feeling are very fragile right now.

Happy Reading.

Fines Terrae (Ends of Earth)

Jewel sat staring out the window. She never expected the apocalypse to look like this; she expected the burning, collapsed buildings and people running around like chickens with their heads cut off and all the screaming but not aliens.

There was a noise behind her making her flinch. “What are you doing? Didn’t you hear me calling you?” Her twin brother Jeff said making her blush from embarrassment. “Sorry, no I didn’t hear you. How could I with all of that going on outside?” She replied gesturing towards the outside world behind the window. “Whatever, we have to get going, there was a bioship spotted coming this way.”

He handed her a specially made gun that was made to paralyze instead of killing because up to this point aliens were not the ones that were hostile. Sadly, the war zone that was once called New York was created by humans. Humans were the first ones to attack by bombing and shooting at the flying saucers, at the time they didn’t realize they were only damaging their own land. So Jeff and his nerdy friends created guns that only stunned the victims. They really only wanted to escape, not to hurt anyone. Continue Reading
