The fickle ball of fire quivered under the assault of the gray mist. Its brilliance dimmed as it threatened to extinguish under the air of death any second.
“Haa…”
My hand relaxed and muscles let go of the tension. The mist vanished like the wind, the trembling ball of ...

The meal at the steakhouse ended somewhat uneventfully. Well I thought it was gonna end uneventfully. Until…
“Kaiti, you can’t only eat cheesecake.” The Old man said with a deep frown. He was certainly, upset.
“Why not?”
The Old man sighed hearing m...

I woke up to the sun hitting my face. Everything was quiet. Too quiet. I rubbed my eyes trying to clear my vision and soon my eyes landed on a distant white square. A small piece of paper that contrasted with the black coffee table.
I looked to my left — since I had claimed t...

I could barely see amidst the darkness, non-distinct shapes approached with screeches. Why did it have to be dark? I scowled and prepared myself. Ash was— she was angry. A ghoul leaped towards me, or a shadow did. I repositioned my scythe like a staff and did an up...

The morning was uneventful. I did get my backpack. Well Ash had given it to me after it was apparently retrieved, though I just awoke to my backpack being there. I used new black clothes, and that was that— they looked very similar, though it was more like a blouse rather t...

I closed the door behind me. The officer waved at me with a small smile. Unlike the other one that had questioned us, this one was actually receptive to my tales! At first I was slightly skeptical, but to my surprise he never stopped me. Not even once.
Ash walked next to me as I turned to h...

Officer Carter enjoyed his job. He really enjoyed the leisure of the night shift, or more specifically how calm the nightlife was in his area. After all, it was the countryside. He did think it was a bit of a pain to end his shift, given how tired he felt after it was over, he wasn’t m...

I took a deep breath on the ground. I was weak… The monster was long dead. Footsteps echoed, and Ash stood next to me.
“Well done Kaiti.” Ash said, ruffling my hair, her hand was warm. “You’ve done well, the fact that you’re alive is proof of it.”

The white faded into trails of blue smoke. Ash stood at the edge of my vision. She no longer wore a onesie, but an outfit clad in black— rugged, a vest full of pockets with various magical tools. Her legs had various knives on them as well as a small bone wand, and her back had blades and va...

Liquid pooled at the touch melting through the sofa, the black tentacles wiggled as they expanded onto the floor and ceiling of the apartment, soon it became a wriggling mass of flesh that constantly dripped darkness. I blankly stared at everything that was happening.

Under the blue light we sat on a chair, a husky cackle echoed throughout the tunnel.
¨Hahaha! So you’re saying you fell while climbing the tree and scared the kid?”
I scratched my cheek, I was embarrassed about lying, but I couldn’t really tell him the kid saw me holding a scyt...
