The basement.That was the name given to the lowest and largest level of the Iacon Clinic and Triage Facility.To many, it was a name that underscored the sometimes servile nature of the caste system, a relegation of untold numbers to spark-numbing tasks of banal importance.  A consideration shared by those of the higher castes, of course.To others, it was a symbol of punishment for sins against the established order or of transgressions for acting above and beyond one's station.But, despite the surrounding stigma, the actual structure of "the basement" was far from foreboding.At least as far as Ratchet's sensibilities were concerned.From th...

I walked slowly through the wilderness just beyond my home in Riding Mountain. The sun was just starting to rise over the distant fields, turning the sky a fiery red-yellow-pink. I came to the top of a small hill, overlooking the seemingly endless valley below, through which a small, slow-flowing pure-water river ran to end at a lake, sparkling in the light of the rising sun. I was suddenly overcome with emotion at the truth of what had happened: My life, the only one I had ever known, had been destroyed! It was gone forever, and the painful memory of when my family had been killed at the hands of Marc's army was all that remained!! I had ...

The cold September wind whipped Artemis’ long blonde ponytail back and forth. She sighed and brushed the stray strands from her face angrily. She and Wally were perched on a small building in a tiny town in Oklahoma. Batman had sent a pair of two team members to different cities all over the US following a lead that somewhere the League of Shadows would be meeting. Megan and Connor had gone to Washington, Zatanna and Robin to Illinois and Raquel and Kaldur to Pennsylvania. Artemis was beginning to wonder if Batman was playing matchmaker. She glanced over at Wally and grimaced. If so, why on earth did he pair Artemis and Wally together, of...

Warning: there's heavily hinted rape in this chapter, but I don't think that it needs a mature filter yet (however, if you think it should just tell me and I change it). Second Chances AKA The Rick One For Me – Chapter 2: First Experiment and Bad Memories As Morty A-22β6 woke up it was still dark, the sun barely peeking over the horizon. It had been a while since he had been last able to sleep for that long. Fortunately, his sleep had been dreamless and it was probably thanks to that and the comfort of his old bed that his slumber was this drawn out. Morty then remembered that it wasn't really his bed. He...

The damage was minimal, though Gianniadmitted it was a bad idea to fire a grenade inside. The boat was on its side and Rupert insisted it wouldn’t fly unless straight on theground. So after the Gun Dogs pushed it out of the pond, they carried out the deceased one piece at a time. The dog without any clothes,the black and white one, joined Earp along with the overweight tree climber. “Are we all goin’ta fit?” the dog asked aloud but directed tono one “Not much larger then those armored ca...

Chapter 3: Special Someones Someone knocked on Simon’s office door.He glanced up from the paperwork he needed to file. The Chief Prosecutor was usually willing to communicate by sending messages via Taka, but most of his other colleagues cited fear of Taka’s talons as a good enough reason to avoid that.The knock came again.“Enter.”If not one of his fellow prosecutors, he expected a detective or perhaps Athena—he would have guessed many people before young Pearl Fey, who marched into his office and closed the door behind her.“Good morning, Fey-dono. Have you come from the Wright Anything Agency?”She shook her head.His heart skipped a beat. ...

Let's get one thing clear with Skips and Chad.Yeah they annoy each other sometimes, yeah they may occasionally bicker, yeah sometimes Skips want to slaps him.But if you EVER make Chad feel upset or guilty for his something he is already guilty over, Skips will personally find you and snap your pathetic little spine in half! NO ONE gets to mess with Chad, expect her. And she is not afraid to punch the daylights out of someone to prove her point, it takes a lot to shake this little wolf - not even the full ferocity of Unclr Bendy's temper shakes her (she's pretty used to the chaos at the studio these days)Chad/Skips - meSalutis/Darling/Butch...

Author's Note: As with my other HiJack stories set in the modern world, Hiccup and most other characters from How To Train Your Dragon have been given more contemporary-sounding names. Rainbow colours shifted and warped on the surface of the Providence River, reflecting the fabric banners that spanned the length of the Crawford Street Footbridge: the welcoming fanfare to the 2017 Rhode Island PrideFest.Hamish Haddock was beaming; his enthusiasm renewed and his drive to make new friends and connections in the wider LGBT community bringing him back to the event for another year. He'd been visiting the festival since he was fifteen, and tak...

CELEBRATION FOR OVER 1000 FOLLOWERS!!   THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR UNDYING SUPPORT!       Brief A/N   This story is a special from “Captive”. It follows the events of the movie “Stampede” and, like the movie itself, it’s non-canon for Captive’s storyline. You will also note that birdie is not as stressed about her condition as she is in the original story. If we want to make a vague time indication, it would happen between day 25 and 26 of birdie’s captivity (so right before meeting Drake). Spoilers from the One Piece movie “Stampede”.     *     A long, silent breath left your lips as you leaned your head against the wood of the ship, right...

Steins;GatePost movie Short story 1- Date Night2011-08-16-18:26:15:00Kurisu was in the shower of her hotel room. She was in a hurry to dry off and get dressed. She took a red dress and a blue dress from the closet, comparing them in the mirror. She dropped them both and took a dark purple one from the closet instead. Simultaneously, Okabe was getting ready for the main event of the night in his own loft. He dug a clean dress shirt out of a drawer, which Mayouri took to iron for him. He feverishly tried to comb his greasy hair, worried what she might think about him looking 'unkept.' She put on some small diamond stud ear rings in and the h...

It was around four when Malina got home from work. Sora and his friends and new wolf pet had been up in his room until she arrived. Once she got home, undressed, showered and got something to drink, they came down. DarkWind hid behind Roxas and Riku when they came down. Sora sat his Mom down and explained what happened to the window, and to prove it DarkWind came out from his hiding spot and showed himself. Malina was in a little shock to see a wolf in her house, but was more shocked to know that he could talk. After much convincing and time, Malina agreed to keep him in the house.“Thanks, Mom!” Sora said, he jumped from his seat and gave ...

It started out harmless enough, as all things involving Tony Stark did. He wasn't malicious or conniving by nature, no, he just knew how to get his way…most of the time. And when one has natural charm and charisma, would it not be prudent to use said attributes to one's advantage? Again, no. He really couldn't care less about all the fame and admiration his money and legacy brought him, despite what the tabloids would have people believe. He wanted, and felt he deserved, to be admired and sought after for his genius and engineering aspects that were slowly helping the world become a better place; the natural charm and charisma were just ge...

  (y/n)?   You turned around hesitantly to face Lucifer, his face betraying the faintest trace of shock on seeing your bloodshot eyes. With a sad smile, he opened his arms, just in time for you to stumble forward, breaking down.   The older archangel clasped you in a tight hug as you sobbed into his shirt.   "I am so sorry. Luce...I'm so..."   He hushed you as he pressed his lips into your hair, mumbling consolations but to no avail.   "It wasn't your fault (y/n). This isn't your fault."   "BUT IT IS," you screamed out in frustration, just in time for him to cup your face between his hands and run his thumb over your cheek, before kneelin...
