What happens when one day a year you can go out and kill anyone you please -- with no consequences? It's up to you, stay inside and wait it out, or go out and join the celebration. Murder Day was my first dream turned short story, it inspired me to transcribe more of my subconscious wonderings and share them with you all. Some are frightening, some are sad, and maybe some day there might even be a happy one or two?

Meet Joe Nobody . . . and pray he never meets you. He's average height, with an average build, and average looks - an instantly forgettable face in the crowd. Joe also happens to be a hit man, quite possibly one of the best in the world. He's so good, in fact, that most of his work life has settled into a comfortable routine, where everything goes according to plan, and nothing at all is surprising anymore. He's been just about everywhere, and he's seen it all. But Joe hasn't seen everything. Not yet . . . **WARNING** - This work contains several curse words and some extremely violent themes and situations throughout. I mean, the main character is a hit man . . . there's your first sign. You've been warned. **ADDITIONAL WARNING** - This is soooooooo first-draft-ish, so any problems you see logistically, thematically, or grammatically are all the fault of a combination of absinthe and overzealous fingers. And please, for god's sake, if you see something glaringly wrong, tell me about it! :)

This is simply a lesson in absurdity and the profoundly deep impact upon our mortal journey that can be incurred when one turns a microscope upon the banality of existence. Or it just a story about a dirty stinking liar that happens to be me.

On the day of your birth, your whole life is suddenly planned out. You are marked as either an enforcer or a worker. An enforcer has to live a life of violence, killing those who choose not to follow the strict rules. As a worker, you work 20 hours a day, every day. Ashton Martian is the best enforcer. People say he has a natural taste for killing. That's why his job is to take down those who have chosen to rebel against the government. Ava Sparks on the other hand doesn't tolerate the government and has raised a small group against them. She is skilled in what she does, but unfortunately, that has a fatal consequence. Ashton is assigned to take down the biggest threat to the government, which so happens to be Ava. He has to gain her trust by making her fall in love with him, then killing her when she least expects. But what Ashton doesn't expect is the growing feelings he is developing as he gets to know the real, Ava Sparks. But when the time comes, will he go along with the plan and take away her life, or will he risk everything and protect her?

Delaney Escott lives in a world where popularity reigns supreme. If you want to be noticed, social status is everything. The government is run by the Superiors: a very exclusive group of individuals who are virtually flawless. They are smarter than us and stronger than us, and to join their ranks is the highest honor. The Superiors pay an annual visit to the top schools in the nation and evaluate the students, choosing one boy and one girl - the most Popular in the school - to go the Capitol and train for Superiority. Delaney thinks that she's the only one indifferent to (and perhaps even suspicious of) the Superiors, until Caleb Payne, the most popular boy in school, approaches her with a request. He has a task for her, one that he believes she is uniquely capable of completing. And as she helps him, Delaney discovers that the government is hiding many secrets - and that the truth of the Superiors is far from what people believe it to be.
