The book drops from the shelf and nearly clips her nose. It hits the ground and pages bend, spine crackles, and the crack of the hardcover on the marble floor echoes throughout the library. The girl dances fearfully on tiptoes, reaching for the book she had been searching for a moment ago, whose neighbor had just fallen so clumsily from the shelf. She can hear the librarian sigh and heels clip clop toward her; just a few centimeters more…

His arms were heavy with sleep, heavy with years wrinkling, spotting, drying his skin and bones, heavy with memories pressing in upon him from all sides, memories struggling to burst from inside, to leave; his […]

The grip on my hand was loose, always threatening to slip away. The owner darted in and out of the crowd, wove between people and flew across cracks in the pavement that nearly tripped me. The skin so barely […]

He sat in the center of the pod, arms crossed, legs crossed, eyes closed and head tilted forward, listening.
People ran around frantically all throughout the structure, their hearts racing just as fast as their […]

She couldn’t stop the sob that tore from her chest. She didn’t consciously know the exact cause of her anguish, but she felt it was something to do with the way he looked at her. There was something in his eyes, […]

She was the kind of girl that always had a smile on her face. It wasn’t a particularly pretty one–her teeth were tinted and crooked, and her mouth was too big for her face, but that never stopped her from […]

A tube fed into his arm, pumping a colorless fluid into his veins that kept him only just lucid enough to acknowledge our presences. His eyes were at half mast and dulled by pain and anger and undernourishment; I […]

I was watching out the window again, this time at the sun rising above the mountain range in the distance. The Abbey was nestled deep within a beautiful and quite remote valley, filled with all sorts of natural wonders like trees and rivers and springs, and the animals here were quite varied in species too.

Damn. Foiled again. Though every cartoon villain had uttered those words again, and therefore should sound silly to me as I said it, I found that the phrase perfectly fitted the situation: The pie I had been so carefully baking all day in replacement for the birthday cake that had been ruined early was gone, [...]

The feeling of his skin against mine–intense isn’t the word. It’s like the heat of a thousand suns, the bliss of a cup of ice cream on a burning day, the sea lapping against my feet. All the smiles in the world could never compare to the ones that bloom across my face when I [...]

Gen opened his eyes to see the inside of yet another four walled claustrophobia-inducing space. He groaned and rolled over only to get stuck half-way due to the chains around his wrists. “Damn, damn, double damn,” he said and tried to fish in his pocket for the object that had landed him in yet another [...]

Blair opened the door, and once she saw us, she ushered us inside. “Good, good. Here for your fortunes?” she asked. “Blair, it’s me–” “Yes, yes, I know it’s you. But you only come for fortunes, so why should I treat you any different than I would a client? Well, sit down. Here. Hand.” She [...]

I held the crystal in the cup of my palms, watching in awe as the light it shed bounced off the glass walls around us. I could see my face in some of the pyres that surrounded me, distorted like at a carnival fun house. But this was no fun house; the light from the [...]
