The red glow in his palm flickered whenever he made a fist. Thoughts of her invaded his mind again. He shook his head, unsure how long he’d been standing there, staring at his hand. Lost in dreams of an unattainable love. Only inanimate objects have been the subject of his testing so far. He hadn’t … Continue reading Red hand

Scorching days
The heat rose up from the bitumen in shimmering waves of translucent nothingness. Nothingness she couldn’t touch, but feel in every pore and surface of her body.

The Magic Wand
Bronson had started work five minutes ago and already regretted his life’s decisions.

Protector
The ground shook. Stabilising herself by bending her knees and jutting her arms open, she looked around. Mierann was still surrounded by grass, the blades towering over her, closely together, each only about 5 of her steps away from each other. The ground kept shaking at a regular interval now. She did not like this. … Continue reading Protector
Puddles and streams
‘It was a dark and stormy night… No, scrap it, that’s ridiculous.’ The apprentice looked up from across the desk, tapping her pen to her chin.
