It all began October 31. As usual Cibola High School was a madhouse. Even more so than usual on Halloween. Before I even got to school, the annual madness was apparent. Yards, doors, porches, and even the facades of large buildings had been bedecked with every imaginable Halloween decoration. Bats, gravestones, and orange christmas-style LED lights. However, at school the supreme Halloween fervor had asserted its control over affairs. The day went smoothly, discounting the thick, smoke-like, opaque fog. It pressed against the windows in some places,but others were fog-free for up to five feet (about 1.5 meters, for non-Americans). THe fog s

Alice, Grace, and Emily stood together looking at the mess they had made. The cafeteria area was a massacre, the hallways were like a category 5 hurricane disaster zone, the library was a sea of paper and computer parts. "Well this is interesting." Alice remarked. Two hours earlier, a plot had been formed in the darkness outside the school. 7:30 am. Armed with pitchforks, torches, and guns of every sort, the Witch Hangers, as they called themselves, were going to burn some witches at the stake. 9:00 am. The Witch Hangers sprung their trap. The three witches(Alice, Grace and Emily) were surrounded by a ring of mean looking, well-armed witch

  "Yep this is it," you thought. "The grand Avenue of Flags." Just get to the other end of the Avenue, and you would be in Tatanka, South Dakota. You take fifty steps forward. Then another fifty. On the 100th step your foot hits a chunk of wood. You made it to Tatanka.   Tatanka wasn't a bad place to live. It was the largest United States Civilian Conservation Army's (USCCA)complex in South Dakota. But it was built out of materials that could be scavenged off the nearby land. After 2125, or the end of World War III the USCCA lost its grip on the complex. Now it is run by the survivors of the Invasion. Leftovers from the Invasion, Chinese, Ru

Meanwhile, Emily was inspecting her vial, trying to read the writing. It wasn’t easy, so after about five minutes, she gave up. Emily used the vial’s cap to pace herself to drink her vial slowly. It was like taking shots, but wanting an entire glass. She kept pouring and drinking, quite fast, though. Patterns of stripes began to appear on her skin, but instead of fur growing the stripes looked like tattoos, and stayed on her skin like such. Within minutes Emily had become a tiger-patterned girl, with tiger like teeth and paw pads. She joined her friends. Lauryn took hers the slowest. At first nothing happened, but slowly the chan

Katherine Hightower is one of my favorite characters I’ve created. I literally would date her if she were real and I was not already in a relationship. Katherine Hightower was born on October 11 several years ago as a fully formed teenager in my mind...I like to think she is my age. But now I’m going to write a fictional bio that will help you understand her better. Katherine Chloe Hightower was born at 14:27, on Wednesday, October 11, 2000 A.D. She was born in North Valley Hospital. She was born 2 days after her “perfect due date.” Katherine Hightower was an exceptionally bright student in her elementary years, ev

The village was in a valley. Not a big stretched out valley, but a small sandy depression between two stone hills. There was a forge in a  limestone building, a bunch of houses, and a large hall. The hall, a large spruce wood building stained in several colors, consisted of a kitchen the size of two semi truck containers, a dining area a quarter of the the size of a Home Depot lumber yard, and the rest was veranda, outdoor grill and outdoor eating area. There was a river, named the Alexandria river. At the end of the valley, the river pooled in a lake called Lake Kom Ombo. Situated on the west bank of the river, a huge coppery statue of a bu

I don't remember a lot, but I remember some of the smallest details. It was in the month of April, and I had just got the news that changed my life forever. The war was here and I had no way to stop it. Sure, I had rallied an army of 1500 or so, but most were teens, high school students with no experience in battle. The schools nearby, as well as my own came together against an army of almost 3000. I remember the scouting mission. "Oh, we are screwed." was what Ben said. The whole enemy town had rallied against us. We had two garrisons set up; one in the middle school, one in the high school. My war chiefs were holed up in the middle school;
