One day a giant woke up in a beach.
The mounds of sand under his feet were dunes; the stones on his sides were mountains; the steam around his head were clouds; the tiny insects flying by his fists were seagulls.

There was no way he could've thought everything was smaller than him, until he knew he was bigger than everything.

Fragment: The Color Out of Space by BobInTheComments
1 part Complete
The first time I saw the color, I thought it was a sign that things were going to work out. How could I not see those vibrant purples and cobalt blues framed in a swirling aura of chimerical colors lighting up the rumbling midnight storm clouds as a bad thing? How was I to know then that this color composed of many, but still one, was an omen while the world around us burned? That it wasn't to be our rainbow from God signaling our salvation from the madness that consumed those outside our borders? That the hues I failed to recreate with my crayons and pencils on the floor of my brother's cabin would twist and corrupt everything bathed in its light?

You were trying to find your way home after school. It was dark now, and you couldn't seem to find the right street. You're parents were supposed to pick you up, but they were nowhere to be found. A teacher asked if you needed a ride after calling your parents and getting no answer, but you were set on walking home. "I'm a big kid," you exclaimed, starting to walk. Little did you know... Someone had their sights on you. (DISCLAIMER! I DON'T OWN ANY FORMS OF MEDIA IN THIS BOOK UNLESS SPECIFIED. I DO NOT OWN THE PICTURE FOR THE COVER, I MERELY EDITED IT TO SHOW THE TITLE.)
Why Love? by MinnieMayMonte
19 parts Complete Mature
Get her!" a familiar voice yelled and the next thing I knew, my books were slapped out of my hands and I was pushed to the ground. "Lucas," my mind was racing with confusion and my eyes swelled with tears. "You didn't think that I was a nice guy. I control these grounds sweetheart and I don't like new people invading my school. Get out of here and if you say anything about this to anyone, you will get more than just a warning," I scrambled to my feet and quickly grabbed my books. I finally found the will to stand and I took off. My feet hit the grass of my front yard and I collapsed. My sobs became more frequent and my head fall back looking up at the sky. I can't believe this is happening to me. Trigger Warnings ⚠️ - depictions of alcohol abuse, physical abuse, sexual and mature themes, language, and cancer. All rights reserved. Completed story.

nothing is worse than being able to see something horrific and wishing other people could see it too. You wondered for years 'what is This?' 'why is it there' why can't anyone else see it?' But once you realise what it is. You start to feel sad, but angered. who would do this? Why did you deserve This? well for Carmen she wonders the same thing. come on the magic school bus and take a trip through this story with us. But don't forget, when you come on this journey, you may never come back. Really quick ending. Should've taken more time. But I kinda like how it ended. Leave feedback, booty's.

His Soul✔️ by huma_ihmal
42 parts Complete
On the wet sand beside the seashore, the strong, tall man was laying with a cigarette in his hand. His bike parked a few feet away from him. The environment there was serene and noiseless as no one was allowed then on the beach that he owned. It was not a big deal for a billionaire like him. He had a lot more than that. Wealth, power, the respect he had all of them but lacked the most important thing that couldn't be bought with money. He lacked inner peace. He inhaled the vinous smoke as the corner of his lips twitched in a sad smile. His eyes deceived him being moist and a lone tear slipped down his face on the sand. The sand sucked the water as soon as it fell on it, and he wondered if his pain disappeared in thin air like that. He breathed out a puff of smoke through his nose and mouth. Looking up at the sky with the sad smile plastered on his face he spoke up, "Why so hatred for me, ya Rab?" Miles away from him the girl with a cuddling baby in her arms uttered looking up at the sky, "I express my deep gratitude to You for sending this angel to me, Ya Rab."

A Thousand Thrones by writeon27

A game of Seven Minutes in Heaven turned into my personal Hell. I didn't know the first boy I'd kiss, I'd kill. But I couldn't help it. The feeling, the power it gave me as I drained the life from his body was amazing. But when he dropped to a heap on the floor in front of me, his eyes open and unseeing, I screamed. Because one look, you're mine. One touch, I've got you under my spell. One kiss... You're dead.

My eye's start to flutter open and I sit up and hold my head "Ouch what happened" I mumble to myself. I look around and see nothing but desert "How in the hell?" I think as I hear something behind me. What could it be? A Shadow, or someone else, or is it all in Storm's head? Stick around to find out more!
