Anything Can Go Wrong

Malcolm Adams didn’t want to go out on such a night, but his girlfriend, Catherine Campbell, insisted.  They hadn’t been out in a while, so, rain or shine, Catherine wanted to go out.  He loves his girlfriend very much, but he has a bad feeling about tonight.  He has thought about calling her and canceling, but he doesn’t want to disappoint her.  He grabs his coat and walks out to his car, driving to Catherine’s house to pick her up. 

He texts her when he’s in the driveway, and almost immediately, she walks out, running to his car before she gets too wet from the rain.  She has long, blonde hair, wearing a cozy, purple coat and long, skinny blue jeans.  She smiles, giving Malcolm a kiss on his cheek when she gets in.  “I’m so happy to see you!”  She says.  He smiles as well,

“You too!” 

“Oh yeah, I called Daphne, and her and Anthony are going to meet us at the theater.  You don’t mind, do you?”

Malcolm starts backing out of the driveway as he speaks.  “Of course not!  The more the merrier, right?” 

“Great!”  Catherine turns the heat up in the car.  She has always been sensitive to the cold.  She hates it.  But it gives Malcolm more of an excuse to cuddle up next to her and hold her hand.  Not that he needs any excuses other than he’s her boyfriend. 

Suddenly, they hit a large bump on the road, making the car too and swerve. They both scream, and Malcolm slams on the breaks. After a few, long, agonizing seconds, the car stops. Malcolm looks at Catherine, making sure she's unscathed. "Are you okay?" He asks gently, trying to keep everything calm. 

"I... I think so..." Catherine shakes, and Malcolm embraces her in his arms from the driver's seat, comforting her. "What did we hit?"

"I'm not sure..." Malcolm replies. He gets out of the car, flipping his hood over his head. He looks around, but doesn't see any sort of bump anywhere. "I don't see anything!" But he hears no reply from Catherine. "Catherine?" He runs to the passenger's side of the car, not seeing his girlfriend there. "Catherine?!!" He shouts, starting to panic. Where could she have gone? She would never run off; not in this stormy weather. What should he do?!

---------------------------------

Catherine's hands are bound, and her eyes are blindfolded. She had screamed as much as she could, but to no avail.  No one could hear her.

She knows that they are walking through a forest. She can smell the nature around her."Who are you?!"  She screams out.  One of the men kicks her. 
"Shut up! You're going to be our sacrifice!" 

Catherine gasps, tears falling down her face, hoping that Malcolm will find her.

Fighting For Sanity - Soul Eater FanFiction

Chapter One

Doctor Franken Stein takes a smoke of his cigarette, sitting in his chair at his desk, deep in thought. The madness has been growing more and more since Asura was revived a week ago. He has been holding on strong, but he knows it won't be long before he loses it completely. It gets stronger every day.

His train of thought breaks when he hears the front door of his lab break down. Stein stands and braces himself, getting ready for an attack. Footsteps slowly ascend towards him, getting louder as they get closer.

Time slows to a crawl as the stranger enters the room, cloaked in shadow.
"Stein…" The voice is deep, coming from an adult male, who is wearing dark blue jeans, a gray shirt, and a black trench coat. Shaggy, dark brown hair covers his big, brown eyes. Stein now knows that this man is no stranger.

"Jack. What are you doing here?" Stein asks, his voice serious, but with a hint of surprise. He hasn't seen Jack since… Since childhood.

"To see you, of course." Jack smirks, showing a bi of madness. "And also," his tone turns dark and serious, "I felt a deep surge of madness last week." A grin is then painted on Jack's face, as if saying the very word brought the insanity upon him. "It has been growing ever since."

Of course, Stein thinks, of course the madness would bring him here. He has more trouble with it than I do. I'm quite surprised that he's still in control. "What's it coming from, Stein?" Jack's voice breaks Stein from his thoughts. "I know it has something to do with this city."

Stein takes another smoke before he answers, tension clear in the air. "The Kishin Asura has been revived." After those words, Jack's eyes start to twitch. There's no telling how much longer he can control his insanity.

"Yes…" Jack says, "That makes perfect sense now…" A mad chuckle escapes him. "No wonder it has gotten worse… No wonder it doesn't stop…" The chuckle turns into a laugh, growing madder with every passing second.

He's losing it. Which isn't any better to me than to him. "Jack, control yourself. Don't break." Stein stares at Jack, straining to keep his own madness at bay. Jack's laughing stops, and a mad grin comes to his face.

"You make it sound so easy, Stein. You of all people know that it's not." Jack's tone grows sad and regretful. "My two daughters are gone, Stein. I scared them away last week, the moment Asura escaped, by torturing their mother…" Tears come to his eyes, "They're no where to be found." Stein listens to every word, but stays silent for a good few minutes.

"I'm sorry, Jack, but I'm afraid that I can't help you with that."

"Maybe not… But I can help you defeat Asura."

Stein smirks, the madness starting to leak out. "That's a dangerous offer, Jack. You and I both know that you're far more unstable than I am." But his abilities would be very useful.

"And we both know that I am an intelligent scientist, just as you are. I also have great telekinetic abilities."

"While that's true, it could also backfire on us. You can get so insane that you'll torture anyone with that power, whether friend or foe. You even carry poisoned daggers with you everywhere."

Jack looks down, knowing that Stein is 100% right. "Perhaps… But you and your school need all the help it can get."

Stein can't deny that fact. It's not that the DWMA can't handle it, but the more help there is, the better.

"We'll have to see what Lord Death says about you staying and helping."

"I figured that much."

"Well then," Stein says, "let's go."

Flash Fiction #2

A storm has approached a small town, making everyone scramble and run inside.  Jeff, on the other hand, sits on his rooftop and watches the sky.  Hearing the thunder crash and seeing the lightning strike the ground.         

Lightning is a very fascinating thing.  It terrifies most people, but it doesn’t even scare Jeff.  Jeff has had this control over lightning for as long as he can remember.  It won’t hurt him if it strikes him.  Maybe if it was a massive amount, but a little doesn’t do much.  It takes his breath away.

Flash Fiction #1

In a flash, the vampire is on the young woman’s neck, slurping the delicious rubies flowing through her veins.  The vampire would kill her, but what would be the fun in that?  It’s far more entertaining to make her his slave.  With just one bite, she will not be able to resist any direct order that he gives her.  Why does he do this?  For one thing, it’s his form of entertainment.  But the main reason is to torture the woman’s lover.  Nothing hurts this man more than seeing his true love get hurt.  That makes this all the more entertaining. 

Once finished, he let’s go of her, letting her fall to the ground weakly.  Her breaths are slow, but she is still alive.  “Get up.”  The vampire says.  The woman gets up, unable to resist her master’s orders.  “Now…”  The vampire has an insane grin on his face.  “There is something that you are going to do for me.”  The woman is terrified.

Her terror lessens once her lover swoops in, punching the vampire square in the jaw.  “Let go of her, you monster!” He exclaims.

The vampire laughs, “Honestly, you humans are so foolish!”  He looks to the woman, “Kill him.”  The woman screams in protest, grabbing the branch of a tree and running to her love to stab him.  The man dodges, confused at her actions.  “She belongs to me now…”  The man is horrified,

“Let her go!!”  He demands, but the vampire merely grins.  “Why would I do that?  That would bring you happiness!”  The woman continues to swing at him against her will, hot tears streaming down her face.  After what seems like a lifetime…

She succeeds in stabbing him.

Vampires

A poem derived from "Vampires Will Never Hurt You" by My Chemical Romance. :) 


And if they get me and the sun goes down into the ground And if they get me take this spike to my heart and And if they get me and the sun goes down And if they get me take this spike and
You put the spike in my heart And if the sun comes up will it tear the skin right off our bones
And then as razor sharp white teeth rip out our necks I saw you there Someone get me to the doctor, someone get me to a church Where they can pump this venom gaping hole And you must keep your soul like a secret in your throat And if they come and get me
What if you put the spike in my heart And if they get me and the sun goes down And if they get me take this spike and Can you take this spike? Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless
Night time sky? Can you take this spike? Will it wash away this jet black feeling? And now the nightclub sets the stage for this they come in pairs she said We'll shoot back holy water like cheap whiskey they're always there Someone get me to the doctor, and someone call the nurse
And someone buy me roses, and someone burned the church We're hanging out with corpses, and driving in this hearse And someone save my soul tonight, please save my soul Can you take this spike? Will it fill our hearts with thoughts of endless Night time sky? Can you take this spike?
Will it wash away this jet black now? And as these days watch over time, and as these days watch over time And as these days watch over us tonight I'll never let them, I'll never let them
I'll never let them hurt you not tonight I'll never let them, I can't forget them. I'll never let them hurt you, I promise. Struck down, before our prime Before, you got off the floor Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart? (And these thoughts of endless night bring us back into the light  and this venom from my heart)
Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart? (And these thoughts of endless night
bring us back into the light  kill this venom from my heart) Can you stake me before the sun goes down? (And as always, innocent like roller coasters. Fatality is like ghosts in snow and you have no idea what you're up against  because I've seen what they look like.  Becoming perfect as if they were sterling silver chainsaws going cascading...)
