A collection of short stories. I will try to write at least one new story a week! These stories can be interpreted however you want, but I usually write them about concepts that I care about.

A story about immortality is inevitably a story about mortality. A million years after the devastation of Earth as we knew it, mankind is given an unlikely new chance, by a space-drifting alien race of the titans. Except that they aren't actually alien. Mikael Corvin is a graduate student in a university town in Central Europe. Through his girlfriend Helena, he gets involved with the work of an enigmatic Institute, led by the futurist and philanthropist Xavier Landorf. However, before Mikael can experience his newly found happiness, he dies in a bicycle accident. Yet he, too, is given a new chance. A new life, a mission, a floating paradise, and a distant dream of an island. But this is where things start taking a very different course. When Mikael finally finds his island, he also finds out that the world is not what he had previously thought of it, and the strange youngsters on the island are not who they first seemed. Eventually, Mikael might even find himself, but to reach that end, he needs an entire journey, which always seems to be only in the beginning when a new turn again derails him.

"You know Eve, at some point you're going to realize that you can't make it through life on your own. I just hope when that time comes, it doesn't break you in the process." Taken aback I grit my teeth in discomfort. "Well, I've gotten this far on my own," I snap, "and you know what they say: if it's not broke, don't fix it." But deep down I knew the truth; I was broken and I had been for a while. •-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-• Evelina Joyce has had to fight for everything in her life, literally. As the sole supporter of her little sister, she participates in underground bare-knuckle brawling where all types of people come to watch and bet on her fights. Over the past few years Eve has developed the reputation of being ruthless in the ring as well as in the streets, and that's just how she likes it. The less people you let in, the less you get hurt. But what happens when Eve meets Renan Mathews, a secretive dancer who longs for the day he can choreograph award winning numbers and finally prove to his parents that following his dreams can be just as lucrative as following in the footsteps of his father, an internationally revered celebrity lawyer. Will Renan's optimistic view of what could-be soften the heart of Eve and finally convince her to let go and let people in, or will Renan hurt her just like she knew he would and harden her heart forever?

Chapter One of a story I started. I'm only posting chapter one to get some feedback so I can see what works and what doesn't. It was a normal assignment: "parent" an egg for two weeks to learn about responsibility. For Kyle, however, the end of the assignment brings about a whole new beginning.
