Requiem for a Chilidog
Sonic dies of death and it's very sad :(
Party Rock
The party ship crashed into the planet of no parties. Miraculously, all of the inhabitants of the party ship survived, thanks to their ginormous automatic airbag system they invented prior to losing their minds to the booze. When they walked out they decided to throw a new party.

The Blood Moon
After months of hiding, I'm back in the Hollow. I can sense that Quinn has been here. I can smell it. A figure appears out of nowhere, questioning me with a southern accent. A vampire. "What do you want?" He asked me after I told him I was looking for Quinn. "Help." I stared.

Fighting The Fear
"9-1-1, what's your emergency?" The woman on the other end asked me. As Jackson continued with his seizure, I panicked, trying to tell her that he was scaring me. She sent an ambulance and stayed on the line with me, telling me to remain calm. They took him with Lulu in the back.

Life’s a Beach
When the email came, it was brief and blunt. "I have left the keys at the house," it read, "One beneath the turtle potted plant and the other under the mat. If you fail to find them, may I recommend nearest Four Seasons?" There was no signature line.

Little Robot Puppy & the Secret Pickle Colony
The robopup was a cute little robot puppy that had a big head and a tiny body. It cuddled along its owner's leg, panting and licking the leg. It was ready to follow its owner on a grand adventure! It waited. And waited. And waited. Then it realized its owner was dead.

Hope
“Father?” The child asked, “Why do stars die?” It was past midnight as the boy and his father walked alone in the garden surrounding their cottage between Little Peak and East Peak. “I guess the simple answer is that they are too tired to carry on” the father answered smiling.

Bonaroodoopalooza: Part III
I got a sweet new Galaxy phone, with a glittery purple case. It’s got an app that cycles through colors in synch with a beat. I made the beat on my Acid808 app, also on this phone. Hook it up to a projector and sound system and I will rock the house. I’ll be the brightest star.

I'm a rare prosecutor with a backbone, going after the rich and corrupt who knowingly and openly plotted to destroy the world with climate crime. The temperatures are rising and the wildlife is dying, and those mafia oligarchs continue shattering CO2 records. I'm gonna fight em.

Bonaroodoodoopalooza: Part II
I’m the freshest spiral galaxy in this quadrant. I’m clouded in purple gases, I sparkle with newborn stars, and a pulsar at my heart flashes in time to the rhythm of the cosmos. The only problem is I have no one to talk to. I’m amazingly lonely.

I ran down the street, the police cars zooming behind me. My entire body is covered in blood. Everything was just okay. Until. . .Until his head exploded, splashing blood on anyone around him. A police officer grabbed my arms, shouting. I cried. A 23 year and old and I'm crying.

Neptune's Hidden Thief & the Very Distracting Painting
Planet Neptune. A gas giant filled to the brim with gas. Not a single solid landmass to stand on, besides the core. No one would expect a single living thing to be there. That's why it's the perfect hiding spot for a thief like me. I'm a space thief hiding in Neptune. Neat stuff.

Crumbling Clouds
Regret. He is regretful. At this moment, I regret. He wiped away the tears and leaned close to me. His breath stung my lips as we both sat there waiting for something to happen. “Dylan. I. . .” Before I could do anything more, his lips were softly pressing against mine.

Fortune
He again awoke from his dreams about the stars in the night sky and the “others” who were constantly watching over him. “Dreams are sometimes messages from the unknown parts of this strange universe.” his mother would tell him when he was younger and still learning.
