"See you then," Clara grinned and walked out of the ship, leaving the Doctor alone at the controls. He smiled to himself for a minute, patting his beloved TARDIS' console as he checked every panel for any damage from their trip to Trenzalore.

"Just you and me then eh old girl?" He looked up at the time rotor, an idea forming in his mind. He had linked the TARDIS to Clara's memory, whatever she saw, he could access and that meant-

Video Games are EmotionalAt the ending of best game I have ever played, Metro Last Light, I started to cry, now being someone who has been bullied, has broken bones, has had family members die and didn't shed one tear despite of what happened this inspired me to write this because within the gaming industry there are a lot of genres such as, first person shooters, role playing games, action, driving, sport etc and each person has their own favorite or preferred genre, mine being first person shooter/role playing games I often delve deeper into the so called ‘basket of games’ looking past the Call Of Duties, Battlefields and alike, to such games as Metro 2Video Games are Emotional7 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

The Ride Home“Stop the car.” Angela whispered, her breath coming out ragged and pained.

Ian glanced back at her with a frown. “If you think for one minute you’re off the hook for this Angela—I”

She made a gagging noise. “Stop the car, Ian!”

THAT got his attention. He pulled over just in time for Angela to fling the car door open and puke up everything she had in her stomach. She’d already done a lot of puking before, in the filthy bathroom of the bar where she’d spent the night. She thought she had finished before Ian had come to pick her up, but apparently she wasn’t even close.

Hidden SecretsChapter 1

Gohan arose from his bed releasing a big yawn which was rudely interrupted
by a 7 year old.

Goten: GOOOHAN!!!!

Gohan: *Yawn* What is it Goten?
he asked rubbing his eyes sleepily.

Goten: Mommy says its dinner time!
However it didn't get Gohan's attention.

Goten took a deep breath and shouted

Goten: GOHAN THERE WAS GOOD FOOD BUT ITS GONE AND YOUR LATE!!

Gohan shot out of bed at light speed brushing his teeth, showering, drying off and
dressing and ran downstairs ready to face his mothers wrath.

Gohan: I'm so sorry mom im late!!

Chi-Chi: Late? your 3 hours early.

Gohan glared at his young brother who was

3 Making HistoryThe pilot was still ducking and diving as the German flyer stayed stubbornly on his tail. The young German knew his machine and his own formidable skills, but the pilot in front of him was also good. He had so far denied any real chance of a critical hit from the German’s machine guns mounted on the front. Despite a few good shots, the only effect it had had was the pilot dipped his nose a little and losing a fraction of his altitude.

The young German was starting to feel frustrated at his elusive prey, but he felt a kind of admiration. Whoever his opponent was, he was good enough to avoid serious disaster. He was quick and nimble.

New planeswalker expandedI stood on the black field, facing down the knights that would have buried me. Their horses, clad in armor almost as thick as that of their knights, snorted and stamped impatiently. The only one not on a horse was the only knight I’d ever really had to worry about. He stood still, his armor glowing a little from the celestial enchantment pouring off of it. “Yield!” He yelled to me. “There’s no way you can win now.”
And I laughed. It was a wild, feral laugh that echoed across the field. It was torn and burnt and ugly from our battle, but I rather thought it was an improvement. The blood of my last summons waNew planeswalker expanded13 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

The smell of blueShe grew up in the world of black and white. The walls and the ceiling were white, sometimes a little bit grey from dust. Many a time, she found herself sitting on the ground staring at the fine black lines spreading across the walls like some long, thin, spidery strands of hair. The cracks extended from the ceiling, running all the way down the wall till it almost touched the ground. She wondered what made the walls crack that way. Her finger ran along the grooves between the floor tiles. She could memorise the number of tiles across her room horizontally. Vertically, too. The tiles were slightly textured, and cool to the touch. Sometimes sThe smell of blue16 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

I had manoeuvred him so the light was to my back, the fool had let me. Bloody sand crunched under my sandals as I dug then into the grit.
Silence, the crowd hardly breathed, waiting for one of us to move. It was experience, not my senses, that told me they spoke not. They could have all screamed and I would not have heard them, my focus was all for the boy. For he was but a boy, barely on the cusp of manhood and no doubt dragged to the arena by a brutal master.
On another day I may have felt pity for the slaves, but not this boy, not this day. He was no more now than a warm up act, a chance for me to ready my body foThe Arena21 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

Behind GlassThere I was, having gunned down my first plane. I turned in the seat of the cockpit just in time to see his PZL 23 Karaś go down right over the treeline into our territory. I never felt such a rush under my wings, and I could see the face of my grandfathers before me smiling through the clouds like they were welcoming me into the flock. Even better, the thought of praise I would get from my superiors for once. I’d proven them all wrong. I was the fledgling that left the nest too early, with only a few months of training beneath me before they sent me out to war.

Green OrangesGreens filled the barrow, piling high in an overflowing mound of pitted balls, drenching the air with citrus.
Funny, that they shouldn’t really be called greens, but oranges, when it was not until their native flesh was cut away that the true colour be revealed. These greens were not for trade, not for sale to far off lands where the sight of a green orange would frighten away the buyers from the stalls. These greens had not been treated, not coloured, not bred until their insides bled to their outsides and turned their skin to sunsets.

The barrow rested upon pavement that would have been white but for the film of dust that coated it.Green Oranges21 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

ThoughtsOh, look. A sunset. How romantic. Well, maybe it would be if I wasn't the only one sitting on this rock. Or, if I had an admirer standing a few paces behind me and a little to the right. I would also require a pensive expression to make me look serious and delightfully complex. "Oooh," they'd say. "I wonder what he's thinking. I bet it is something really insightful, like the meaning of life or something." Yeah.

Christ. I sound ridiculous. I don't even know why I'm here. I fear I've been dragged into some kind of cliché, staring at a sunset. This is dumb. Sitting here, squinting like a fool, analyzing my own thoughts. God, I hate thatThoughts22 hours ago in Flash Fiction & Vignettes

For whom the Bell Does Not TollI've always thought the warning about not-spiting-one's-face oddly specific. Is it ok to cut off your nose for other reasons?

Call me Island, entire of myself. I was not trying to spite my face when I cut off my lips; it was a matter of simple expediency.

They had once been described as "blushing pilgrims"; by one of my dearer beaus, but alas he has long since left. So it goes.
They came to be described by me as "useless". Why have such protuberances, when there is no-one to kiss? What else are lips for?

Aftermath [Questing][Coda to Shadows in the Stars]If tears happened to spill from Earendel’s eyes, Lutea never commented as he entered and unsealed the rooms. He helped Earendel rise, slowly and carefully as if with the aches and fragility of an aged person.

“Your--” Earendel began and stopped abruptly. “Ulyana has moved on now.”

Lutea nodded, eyes solemn. His arm remained around Earendel’s shoulder, holding her upright even as they moved towards the hallway. “I know.”

ObservancePeople tended to underestimate just how much Alphonse Elric knew.

Not his alchemic knowledge, everyone knew that was very extensive and impressive. Nor did anyone doubt his knowledge of his brother and his ways. No, in fact almost everyone else relied on that knowledge.

They underestimated how much Al observed.

It wasn’t hard. While a giant suit of armor was hard to miss, it was easy to forget about, especially with Al as quiet as he was. It helped that Ed quickly attracted all attention to himself. Al took a quiet role of watching and learning. Long night hours alone gave him the time he needed to understand.

Well, it seems so nobody is really using their fireplaces that much; thus much cleaner chimneys and more broke sweeps tap-dancing their sorrows 'round midnight down the street.
