science fiction

The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

Kiss Before Dying (Pt. 3)
James stared at his uncle like a crazy person. The craziness did not stem from his uncle or from what he had said, but from the initial excitement at hearing the word vampire. That feeling was slowly displaced by curiosity.

The Alien and the Kid
One evening just before dinner, a young boy stood outside throwing a yellow tennis ball into the air and catching it with his hand. He tossed it up into the air and then caught it. Upon tossing it up into the air, though, the soft ball disappeared. He looked up and saw a glistening silver object. The ball floated down to him, not tossed. The boy caught the ball and ran from the silver object. He hid behind the trash bins and watched from his hiding space.

The Beginning—Chapter 1 If you’re reading this, then I’m dead but my story will live on. I’ll start at the beginning. I was the only baby born at home in the history of Eden. March 17th 3020. Who would’ve known that twenty years later I would be in a war. A war with an army I would build.

Artificial (Chapter Ten)
Polit Janes felt sluggish in the human network. The data was a vast ocean of wet cement. Each byte was indistinguishable from the next. The most useless bits coated the surface.

Tychus' Pub
It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday as the regular crowd shuffles in. No, I’m not singing the lyrics to Billy Joel’s “Piano Man,” it’s just an awkward coincidence that today happened to start out exactly the same way. I may also have the song stuck in my head and am humming it softly to myself. I am a piano man, after all.

Artificial (Chapter Nine)
How long had he been out? Laal shook his head and regretted it. His throat swelled and throbbed. He screamed, but the noise that escaped was a mere imitation of his voice.

The 10 Best Sci-Fi Anime
When I am looking for a science fiction type show, I am always looking for a show in space, or discovering the next time machine, etc. Somehow, I am always getting more fantasy like fairies and elves. That may not be correct, but that is my understanding. So here are some sci-fi shows!

Wings
I saw her fall—right out of the sky and into a crumpled heap on the cold canyon floor. I saw the shaky movements that jumbled together to form steps, and I saw the tears and frustration on her face as glorious white wings spread and reached back toward the sky, but there was no wind to carry her home. I waited till her sobbing fury became only echoes in the canyon, then I approached. I didn’t say anything. I just crouched next to her broken spirit and waited for her to climb out of her tears. I didn’t wait long. Swollen eyes glanced slowly over me and I saw shattered irises hiding a broken soul. There was a touch of disdain that flickered as I offered my hand.
