Hallo, Prinzesschen, endlich wach ?
" ... "
Zerbrich dir nicht deinen hübschen Kopf über solche Fragen. Du kennst mich nicht.
Das ist auch richtig so.
" ... "
Oh doch, ich darf dich duzen. Und ich sage dir auch wieso. Weil ich hier das sagen habe !
" ... "
Hoho, da haben wir aber ein freches Plappermäulchen, was ? Nun, wie ich schon sagte, du kennst mich nicht, aber du wirst mich kennen lernen.
" ... "
Weil ich dein neuer Herr bin.
Jetzt sei still, oder ich werde den netten Elektroschocker an deinem Halsband betätigen. Ach, das war dir noch gar nicht aufgefallen ? Nun, - jetzt weißt du was das ist und wenn du keinen Wert darauf legst das ich das Ding benutze solltest du dich ab sofort etwas besser benehmen.
" ... "
Genau das will ich dir ja erzählen. Ich brenne darauf dich über deine neue Situation ins Bild zu setzen. Willst du also zuhören ?
" ... "
Gut !
Mein altes Leben liegt hinter mir. Ich habe es ausgelöscht. Völlig.
Möglich das es noch Hinweise darauf gibt wer ich einmal war, aber das spielt keine Rolle. Schon gar nicht für dich. Denn Du kommst hier nicht mehr heraus.
" ... "
Entführung ? Erpressung ?
Ha. Das ihr immer nur auf solch primitive Ideen verfallt. So unglaubhaft es klingt aber Geld spielt hier keine Rolle.
" ... "
Ich sagte sei still ! Und hör zu.
Jetzt und hier und für alle um mich herum bin ich nur Paul. Für dich bin ich „Herr“ oder „Meister“, aber ...
" ... "
Ich merke, dir fehlt es an Respekt. Also schön.
" ... "
Na, hat dir das gefallen ?
Ja, ich weiß es ist sehr schmerzhaft. Das schöne ist, das dieses Ding so konstruiert ist, das ich dich notfalls Minutenlang mit äußerst schmerzhaften Stromstößen bestrafen kann, ohne das du Schaden nimmst. Das funktioniert ähnlich wie bei diese alten Elektrisiergeräten auf Jahrmärkten. Tun weh, aber schaden nicht wenn man nicht gerade einen Herzschrittmacher trägt.
Wenn Du also keine weiteren Aufmunterungen zum gehorsam erleben möchtest, solltest du etwas freundlicher werden.
Also für den Rest der Welt heiße ich Paul.
Ja, ich lege wert darauf das dieser Name nicht englisch ausgesprochen wird.
Woher ich komme ist egal, aber ich ärgere mich wenn man mich für einen Amerikaner hält. Aber das ist mein persönliches Problem.
" ... "
Du möchten Wissen wer ich bin ? Und was dies hier soll ? Wieso du in dieser Zelle sitzt ?
Deshalb erzähle ich es dir ja, denn ich möchte es ja selber los werden.
Nenne es Eitelkeit, Wahnsinn oder wie auch immer, aber ich möchte das du weißt das es für dich keine Wahl mehr gibt.
Also hör zu.
Ich gehörte zu den vielen Millionen Menschen die ein erbärmliches Leben geführt haben und sich zwischen morgens um 5 aufstehen und Abends um 10 schlafen gehen in Ideen und Träume flüchten um ihre beschissene Arbeit und ihr lausiges Leben ertragen zu können.
Man wacht auf und träumt davon reich zu sein und bis 10 schlafen zu können.
Ein Bad mit einer Wanne groß wie ein Swimmingpool und immer heißes Wasser zu haben ohne Wochenlang auf einen Installateur warten zu müssen wenn die alten Rohre des Wohnklosetts in dem man haust wieder mal verstopft sind.
Keinen Knochenjob der einen lange vor der Rente schon kaputt macht, Genügend Geld, nicht nur für die aktuellen Rechnungen sondern auch um sich mal was besonderes leisten zu können ohne zuerst sparen zu müssen.
Eine geräumige Wohnung im Grünen wo einem nicht der nächste Fabrikschornstein den Rauch ins Zimmer bläst.
Egal ob man nur ein lebenswerteres Leben haben möchte oder sich Ruhm und verschwenderischen Luxus wünscht, jeder hat solche Träume.
Ich war genau so. Mit zwei alten Schulfreunden habe ich mir die tollsten Sachen ausgemalt was wir tun und uns leisten werden, wenn wir mal zu Geld kommen würden.
Das dumme ist, ich bin zwar, so unbescheiden das klingt, sehr intelligent, aber ich hatte nie viel Glück. Ich habe keine großartige Schule besuchen können, habe nur eine bescheidene Ausbildung genossen und durch Krankheiten weitere Chancen auf ein besseres Leben verloren.
Meine Kumpel und ich hatten aber immer die selben Interessen, und unsere Freundschaft war unerschütterlich. Wir haben es geschafft trotz allem „sauber“ zu bleiben, und in unseren Leben eine gewisse Ordnung und Qualität zu erhalten. Und wir waren uns stets einig das, sollten wir je eine Chance erhalten, wir der Welt unsere finsterste Seite zeigen würden.
Wir haben detaillierte Pläne gemacht wie wir unser Geld vermehren und Macht gewinnen könnten. Genug Macht um uns unsere geheimsten Wünsche zu erfüllen. Genug Macht um uns dabei vor niemandem fürchten zu müssen.
Vor etwa fünf Jahren ist es dann passiert.
Wir haben wie seit Jahren zusammen Lotto gespielt, aber jeder mit anderen Zahlen. Und ich habe den Hauptgewinn geholt. Mir ist der gesamte Jackpot von fast 43 Millionen Euro zugekommen.
43 Millionen Euro, eine stattliche Summe. Viele währen damit zufrieden gewesen, hätten das Geld angelegt und sich ein schönes Leben gemacht.
Aber ich wollte es riskieren unsere Pläne zu verwirklichen.
Meine Freunde haben mir vertraut und mich auch mit ihrem Anteil arbeiten lassen.
Innerhalb von drei Jahren habe ich unser Geld mehr als verzehnfacht.
Und nicht nur das, ich habe es außerdem geschafft unbekannt zu bleiben, und erste Kontakte für unser späteres Leben zu knüpfen.
Wir hatten nie etwas mit der Polizei oder Verbrechen zu tun, aber dank unserer jahrelangen Planspielchen habe ich es geschafft Kontakte zu finden die inzwischen bis in die Spitzen diverser Regierungen und Polizeiorgane reichen.
Ich gebe zu, es scheint fast als würde uns das Glück besonders unterstützen seit wir Geld haben, aber ich habe es geschafft.
Unsere Freundschaft wurde zwar ein ums andere Mal auf eine Probe gestellt, aber wir haben alles gemeistert. Vor zwei Jahren fingen wir an unsere bisherigen Leben auszulöschen.
Jedenfalls sind meine Freunde und ich jetzt Besitzer einer kleinen, privaten Insel auf der wir unsere ganz besondere Spielwiese eingerichtet haben. Trotz des immensen Geldes das wir besaßen haben wir bis jetzt gewartet, bevor wir endlich unsere geheimsten Wünsche ausleben werden.
Das heisst bis auf Martin. Den armen Kerl hat es erwischt kurz bevor alle unsere Pläne funktionieren konnten. Krebs macht halt vor niemandem halt und hält sich an keine Pläne. Er hat nichts mehr davon, aber wir haben ihm ein besonderes Grab eingerichtet und seien Anteil an unseren Vermögen so gespendet wie er es sich gewünscht hat.
Hier jedenfalls können wir schalten und walten wie wir möchten, weil niemand ahnt wer wir sind und was wir her treiben. Unsere Geldmittel sind riesig und unsere Kontakte so gut, das wir uns praktisch jeden Wunsch erfüllen können und keinerlei Kontrollen zu fürchten haben.
" ... "
Sehr richtig hier kommst du ins Spiel. Wie du dir sicher denken kannst haben wir im besonderen sexuelle Wünsche, die selbst in den freieren Ländern nicht unbedingt gern gesehen sind. Und selbst wenn, wir sind nicht unbedingt auf irgendwelche Allerweltsnutten scharf, egal wie geil Sie aussehen.
Wir wollen keine Kompromisse machen und tun wonach uns der Sinn steht.
Ich zum Beispiel habe eine lange Liste von Frauen die ich gerne ficken möchte. Brutal und schonungslos. Dafür habe ich mich sogar einigen teuren und ungewöhnlichen Operationen unterzogen.
Keine wird freiwillig mitmachen, bei dem was ich mit ihnen vor habe, besonders solche wie du die zur Prominenz gehören. Aber wie du merkst, ist dein Einverständnis auch nicht nötig.
Hier, - ich habe dir eine Zeitung mitgebracht. Sie ist zwar schon drei Tage alt, aber du siehst das du vor zwei Wochen spurlos verschwunden bist. Da, der Artikel. Du bist für die restliche Welt einfach verschwunden.
" ... "
Warum du … Weil wir dich unter Schlafmittel gesetzt haben. Du kannst unbesorgt sein, wir haben Grund dafür zu sorgen das unsere Gäste auch die beste medizinische Versorgung erhalten. Wie wollen ja schliesslich möglichst lange etwas von euch haben. Es gibt keine Spur die zu uns und unserer Spielwiese führt. Du kannst auch nicht fliehen, jedenfalls nicht von dieser Insel. Wir haben uns auf vielfältige Weisen abgesichert.
" ... "
Verrückt ? Ja das wäre möglich. Aber für dich ist es egal ob ich verrückt oder nur unmoralisch bin. Ich werde mit dir genau das machen was ich will, und du kannst es nicht verhindern.
Ich hoffe sogar das du mir möglichst viel Widerstand entgegen bringst. Ich fände es langweilig wenn du dich zu schnell aufgeben und unterwerfen würdest.
Für dich gibt es jedenfalls keine Wahl. Es wird sich nur später die Frage stellen ob ich dich „verschwinden“ lasse wenn ich deiner überdrüssig sein werde, oder ob ich unsere Möglichkeiten dein Gedächtnis zu „löschen“ benutzen werde um dich irgendwann und irgendwo wieder frei zu lassen. Es bestände natürlich auch die Möglichkeit dich weiter zu verkaufen. Aber damit würden wir schon wieder ein hohes Risiko eingehen.
Ah, es hat gut getan das jemandem erzählen zu können. Ich hoffe du weißt das zu schätzen.
Genieße jetzt deine letzten paar Stunden in Ruhe. Wenn ich wiederkomme werde ich mit dir all das tun, was ich mir in so vielen Jahren ausgemalt habe.
" ... "
Nein. Und bleib lieber sitze, sonst werde ich dich noch einmal elektrisieren.
So ist schön. Versuche nicht mich umzustimmen. Ich habe zu viel investiert und lange genug Geduld gehabt. Jetzt will ich meinen Teil an Spass auf dieser Welt haben.
Disclaimer: Don't copy this without permission, or else. +++ I had spent the day playing in one of those seedy casinos on the wrong side of town, the kind that you don't want to mess with if you can help it. And I had lost about a hundred thousand, of which I had approximately fifty cents. So I was packing hurriedly, trying to make my escape, when a pair of overlarge gentlemen in poorly cut suits appeared. They convinced me to have an audience with the owner of the casino, and I...
Kapitel 1 Der große Gesundheits-Kick Eines Tages beschloss ich schließlich, mit dem Rauchen aufzuhören, mein Trinken drastisch zu reduzieren und zu versuchen, ein gesunder Muskelkater zu werden. Ich war fest entschlossen zu wissen, wie es sich anfühlte, noch einmal Sex zu haben, bevor ich starb. Zunächst kaufte ich mir eine Kraftmaschine und trainierte meine Muskeln, bis die Schmerzen jedes Mal unerträglich wurden. Seltsamerweise fing ich bald an, den Schmerz wirklich zu mögen und bekam jedes...
Fantasy1760 The Fall of Montreal The heated battles of the French and Indian Wars were primarily fought in the deep forests and isolated outposts of the exposed English settlers. However, the British eventually brought the fight directly into the heart of the French Colonial Homeland in Canada. The initial assaults on Quebec were fought off but it eventually fell to the English forces in 1759 with much loss of life and property. The key to this success was the prior taking of Fort Niagara by the...
Als diese Geschichte passierte war ich 19, hatte mein Abitur in der Tasche und wollte mit meiner Freundin diesen Erfolg feiern, wir wollten in die Türkei in ein 4-Sterne Hotel und drei Wochen feiern. Wir wurden von unseren Eltern und Freunden gewarnt und wir sollten doch woanders hin fahren, aber wir blieben gerade wegen der Einmischung der Anderen stur. Meine Freundin heißt Jessy, ist 20, ein wahres Model; da sie einen schwarzen Vater und eine deutsche Mutter hat leicht farbig mit glänzend...

I suddenly had trouble breathing and my vision fogged up as waves of powerfully strong emotions crashed over me. Through the tears welling up in my eyes I reread the message several times to make sure that it was real. J'Una alive? Could it really be? Where the fuck was Tatooine anyway? I was so overcome that I became somewhat giddy and I think I even jumped up and down a little. Not what you'd expect from a veteran Imperial TIE fighter pilot, but there it is. I must have made more noise...

The Heads of State gathered in the general assembly taking seats that would normally have been occupied by their Ambassadors. No one seated there truly knew what to expect today. All they knew was that the countries which had been at war with the Jade Empire had signed contracts that obligated them to certain specific actions on this day. The reason that the Heads of State had displaced their Ambassadors was simple. The Jade Empire lived and died by the contract. No one wanted anything to...
A secret romance between a Chinese sex slave and her Japanese master during World War IINote by Jennifer Suzuki: She was a petite, elegantly dressed Japanese woman in her later twenties. We had met over lunch. Me and my white boyfriend; she and her white boyfriend. She looked elegant, but her dress was conservative and plain, without any urban panache and yet radiant with modesty and intelligence. Her boyfriend was much taller than she was, overbearing, muscular, with crew cut dark brown...
It's finally done! The next part of my Witch Chronicles series. It's the largest part to date, almost twice as large as Part 9, the previous record holder. It's also closing in on the end. There'll be two more parts. Part 12 will cover the end of the war. Part 13 will be an aftermath, answering questions that weren't covered in previous installments with information the government doesn't have access to. The previous installments of this story line are republished under the...

A bully is someone who pushes around someone weaker to take their lunch money or just to inflict pain in retaliation for some perceived insult. The school bully does not intend for his victim to become his personal slave, just that his victim fears him. The modern world has a rather odd vision of what it means to make war – war is just a form of bullying that involves nations rather than individuals. War has become a means of intimidation. There is this assumption that at the end of war,...

In 1941 Russia comprised a fifth of the worlds land surface, but its main cities and industrial centres all lay to the west of the Volga, and it was this portion of the world Hitler hungered to take during the summer. During a ferocious German invasion the mass of the Red Army was quickly knocked to pieces in a series of colossal annihilation battles which cost it a million casualties, and by September four million more Soviet troops were slowly starving to death in miserable captivity....
David grew stronger and began to ride around the crater on Zeus. He met up with Martin one day out in the Crater at one off the cattle paddocks. Martin was inspecting some cattle inside off it. ‘Good day Martin, I’ve not seen them before have I?’ Martin spun round smiling, ‘Hello David, of course I haven’t told you have I’ he replied, ‘I brought them from England. Part of my father’s bequeathed, their French Limousine cattle, he left me a bull and six cows. Their hardy cattle with a good...
CIVIL WAR 1861 TO 1875 The opening salvos of the American Civil War sounded no less ominous to the American Indian Tribes than it did to the men who were destined to fight for the Union or the Confederacy. Tens of thousands of Indian warriors served on both sides of the American Civil War for reasons related more to their own Tribal concerns than in similar beliefs in tune with one side or the other. Some of the Indian tribes were economically dependent on the practice of slaveholding and...
*** PROLOGUE This is a historical, but fictional story of the sea war that was fought between the Royal Navy and the U Boats during the period 1940 to 1942, the action is staged at the time when the U Boats were sinking British and allied shipping with little resistance. The story also refers to DEMS {Defensively Equipped Merchant Ships) which was the arming of merchant ships, usually with outdated guns from the first world war and manned by volunteer RN ratings which did a great job, at great...
Erotic FictionThe War of 1812 This chapter is devoted to a very short and nasty war which lasted only two years and eight months that involved many of the American Indian Tribes despite their past experiences which should have warned them about not getting involved in wars that could only hurt their own cause of retaining their tribal lands. If one were to search for the primary singular cause of the War of 1812 the only possible reason would be that the British Empire was still smarting from the defeat...
The man was bleeding heavily from his thigh. The arrow had seared and torn through the chainmail that was wrapped around his leg. Blood had begun to seep through the inter-linked chainmails and into the grass as the man fought with all his strength, dragging the injured limb along as he made his way into the nearby forestry. "Just a bit further, before I get caught by these Yorkist dogs!" The man shouted in a final effort to motivate himself. If he was caught he would be tortured until he told...
MatureFr?ulein Dietz was inconsolable for days about the fire that had gutted the library, but no look of suspicion settled on Willy Fr?hlich. The cause was clear, she said. The electrical wiring in the building had not been renewed since it was installed at the turn of the century, and it was just one more reason why it was so important to have everything at Ravenskopf renovated. With no more of Professor Dietz's notes to write up, Willy was assigned as Celina's personal assistant and s...
There I sat shifting through the many piles of papers lying on my desk and wishing I were somewhere else. It was truly amazing how many reports passed through my hands to be filed or used to type up other reports. I knew that at least half of them would reach Judge Jasper's desk, where he would study them for a few minutes then put them in his out box to be filed by you know who. What surprised me was how much information Judge Jasper remembered. He would quote me numbers on the...

Minx – The Free City of Rartha I padded through the bustling crowd in the market square, my small cutpurse dagger tucked into my palm. It was a ring dagger. Instead of a hilt there was a circle of metal I slipped my pointer finger through. With a flick, I could spin the blade around my finger, slice a purse open, gather the coins with my other...
In a move that has shocked the political world at large; the governments of Germany and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics have concluded and signed a treaty of mutual non-aggression. The released statements of many world leaders has ranged across the spectrum, from ones of rejoicing that the prospects of another great war in Europe has been avoided, to others who unofficially are seeking more information or are involved in a series of ‘intense discussions’ with allied...
THE PERIOD POST-WAR OF 1812 TO BEGINNING OF THE CIVIL WAR IN 1861 This chapter will be primarily focused on the Seminole Wars which were also known as the "Florida Wars". The rise of the Seminole Indian Tribe took place over a period of almost two hundred years and was greatly influenced by the encroachment of the European settlers into the area now known as Florida. The Seminoles were comprised of a number of remnants of other Indian Tribes that had escaped from the ravages of European...
January 30, 1991, Chicago, Illinois “There goes the luckiest man in Iraq,” General Norman Schwarzkopf said as he played a video of a laser-guided bomb destroying a bridge just after a vehicle had crossed it. “Damn!” Elyse exclaimed. “Those videos are amazing, but it’s making this war too much like a damned video game,” I groused. “The damned country is already too ‘gung ho’ for this war as it is.” “But you want us to win, Snuggle Bear.” “Once it started, my only concern is our men and...
“As I see it today, Hitler and Goebbels were in fact molded by the mob itself, guided by its yearnings and its daydreams. Of course, Goebbels and Hitler knew how to penetrate through to the instincts of their audiences; but in the deeper sense they derived their whole existence from these audiences. Certainly the masses roared to the beat set by Hitler’s and Goebbels’ baton; yet they were not the true conductors. The mob determined the theme. To compensate for misery, insecurity,...
Chapter 37 The Crater settled into a routine, the months passed into years. Susan gave birth to a son christened Guy Ramage. Martin and Jill had a daughter the same year, Barbara. Sulkie and Tana had foals, and Zeus was trained to the saddle. By the start of 1899 there were over 260 horses and foals out in the crater, and over 300 cattle and calves. People from the surrounding area would come to buy horses or cattle, mainly the Jersey’s for their own dairy needs. Susan had started a...
The summer air swept clouds of thick black smoke through the grassy hills. In West Virginia, the air was hot and polluted enough already. His eyes stung, watering as he turned away from the fire. Pulling out a bandana, he spit before covering his mouth. Another crop was lost to rival looters, the third one this week. They'd taken as much corn and soy as they could before setting the bare fields ablaze. We have been at War for over 5 years now, with no signs of it ending anytime soon. He had...
Four years had passed since St. Albans, and the small battle there between the House of York and House Lancaster on 22nd May 1455, where the Yorkists triumphed over the Lancaster army based there and captured King Henry VI in the battle. Bartand and Lady Lott "Pixie" had evaded Yorkist forces and safely made it back to Lancaster controlled lands.There they made their goodbyes, hoping and intending to meet once more when Mason thought it the time to partner them both together for an...
Love Stories1875 TO 1885 The primary focus of this chapter will be the famous "Battle of the Little Bighorn" or perhaps better known as "Custer's Last Stand". This battle is probably the most studied confrontation between the American Indian Tribes and the European settlers of the New World. It comes at a time that is almost at the very end of our 400 year timeline and the handwriting is already on the wall about the outcome to the conflict between the American Indian Tribes and the European...
THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WARS 1763 The Final Battle of Detroit and Defeat of Chief Pontiac (Author's Note) Before starting this final chapter of the segment of Part II that relates to the French and Indian Wars, I wanted to clarify some of the confusion about the Treaty of Paris 1763 which formally ended the French and Indian Wars. The first source of confusion is that there were two Treaties of Paris. The first one was called the Treaty of Paris 1763 and it formally ended the French and...
A country can win every battle, but lose the war. One would think that when that happens, there is also a country that has lost every battle while still winning the war, but that isn’t actually the case. When a losing army pulls out, the victors may celebrate the moment, but the real work has only begun. One has to rebuild what had been destroyed, and there is always destruction. In the modern context of war, winning and losing is a rather uncertain concept. Has the mission been...
"Looking at the moon?" Tom Soames did his best to ignore Michel, his pick-up for that night, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed. The small room was stuffy after their earlier heated encounter, and he stayed in the chair near his workbench, fiddling with electrical components and contentedly gazing out of the window. "No, the moon isn't up yet, its still daylight outside," he replied, "I'm just thinking. I have things to do. Plans to make." "Are you thinking of that girl you...
During a rather dull cocktail party in Inra, Ambassador Julliard took a sip of his tonic water while listening to Ambassador Lorenz, the representative from Espa, vent concerning the demands the Jade Empire was making upon it. Espa, like his country of Franka, was not going to surrender to the Jade Empire. Ambassador Lorenz said, “That whole affair in Engle is a disgrace. King Leopold shouldn’t have surrendered. Engle has lost all credibility as a world power.” “Let’s not be too hasty in...
-Chapters five and six will deal with the period of struggle between the American Indian Tribes and the European Settlers in the geographic confines of the thirteen original colonies during the period of their establishment beginning in the 1600s and up until the start of the French and Indian Wars in the mid-1700s. In the order of their establishment, the English settlements were: (1607) Virginia was the first colony established in the new American Colonies. It was founded by John Smith...

July 21, 1994 Colonel Naff stood atop a building watching the action below. The first battalion had just jumped into a fake urban area used in making a television show. The set was complete with buildings, although they were just shells. They were now in the process of taking control of the area. One of the problems facing paratroopers is that when they jump into a war zone they are doing so with limited supplies. There isn’t a convoy of supply trucks lumbering along behind them with heavy...
Aella held the bow and arrow in her hand steadily. She knew these forests better than anyone else because of her time fighting the Macedonians, and now she lay in wait in the thick underbrush as the night hid her slim figure in its darkness. “General Aella,” Stavros, her advisor, had said to her earlier in the day. “Everything is ready now. The men have been briefed, and your spies have returned confirming the news you had received last week. There will be an attack tonight, and we will be...

Dear Caroline, We miss you here a lot. It'll be funny going back to school without you. I mean, you were still here a year ago and then you were gone. Thank you for your letter. I'm glad you like where you're living. Okay, now I have to tell you something incredible, but you have to promise to believe me. It's all true, okay? Then when you're done you'd better throw this letter away. Tear it up first though. Here goes. Well, you know how boring things get by the end of the summer and...
The alleged accident that killed General Patton at the end of World War Two was a terrible awakening to the American people that suddenly they had lost the most outspoken critic of the Soviet Union and the dictator Joseph Stalin taking the place of Hitler and his Nazi goons as the primary threat to continuing peace in Europe. He had plenty of critics for his outstanding views on politics and the world around us but he was one hell of a combat commander and inspired deep loyalty in his...
May 27, 1993 Dr. Wilfred Tanguma did not look like a professor of history bundled up in heavy winter clothes. He was sitting on a folding chair that was half buried in the snow facing a half barrel in which a small fire burned. He was leaning forward with his hands over the flame trying to keep warm. It was bitterly cold. His childhood friend, Bertulfo ‘Bert’ Venzor, was seated next to him in much the same position. He had just delivered some very bad news. Bert said, “I don’t like it....
The estate was an impressive, imposing, and surprisingly large underground complex that filled a huge cavern, with a dim looking pseudo-sun in the centre. The cavern was so large Jason was sure the whole of Manhattan Island could fit in it with ease. They walked along the stone path that was lined with grey/brown foliage none of which Jason could recognize. The plants looked like a cactus with thick oddly shaped leaves and a conical stem that was about two feet tall. There were trees that...
The next two months, until the War of the Worlds, passed rather quickly for James. He spent most of his time training his combat and practising forging and alchemy. The incident with the mercenary army spread far and wide, and the tickets that had been bought up for the war of the world started to find their way onto the black market or disappeared from the hands of the smaller factions that had managed to nab one at auction. The two nations of Soel and Hastoel were starting to flare up even...
GUSTAV jumped to hyperspace, leaving the Death Star, Tarkin, Vader, and J'Una behind. We had embarked Admiral Haarkov and several members of his staff and were enroute to the Sepan system. The most difficult, and potentially frustrating, mission that any military organization can be assigned is one whose objective is not clear. The real purpose of any military, when you think about it, is twofold: 1)to kill people and break things when so directed, and 2)use the threat of force to keep...

My thanks to him for very graciously allowing me to use his characters from his moving and poignant story.

‘I hate this place.’ ‘I hate that you’re such a brat,’ Danielle said to her little brother. ‘Why do we have to go? Ma-mère doesn’t even speak English,’ he whined some more. ‘She does, too.’ She reached over and smacked him just because she could. ‘You’re just too stupid to understand her.’ ‘Dani, don’t antagonise your brother,’ her mom scolded from the front seat of the mini-van. ‘They don’t even have a Playstation!’ Good God, just shut up!
