Killer Sins
Look at you! Just LOOK AT YOU! Your pretentious ways, your smirk and stance. You think everything is your little dance, and everyone is on the palm of your hand. Wrapped around your pretty little disgusting finger. But what you don't know, what you forget... is that sometimes you might do something you might regret. You crossed my path little ladybug, all tall and smug.

Perspective
Believe it or not, the world is dark and demonic place to live. A place where people contemplate and wonder if it is worth living, wondering if it is worth getting your heart broken, losing people you love, feeling like you're never going to be good enough. That you may never be pretty enough, skinny enough, funny enough, or smart enough for someone to love. The world is supposed to stop moving, it's supposed to feel like everything is going to be easier; not more complicated. Simplicities are not supposed to become the complications, they are supposed to stay simple with the smallest of issues, maybe some tiny things here and there but nothing mind baffling. You're supposed to feel like you can defeat the entire world with just a punch, going in kicking ass! Instead, you feel like you're punching a brick wall with your bare hands watching them bleed as you pull the first layer of your skin from your knuckles. Imagine it; the blood simply trickling from the fresh wounds you caused, your elbows resting on your knees and your forehead settling in the palms of your hands. The saltiness of your tears burning the wounds as they make their way over them, pain is all you feel but it is full of satisfaction. If you feel like you're fighting the world alone, this is what you are forced to face! What you are forced to try and overcome. Does it ever work? Now that is up to you to find out. Everything in your life is up to you, whether you're emotionally unstable, or you're the happiest person in the world, you will always have something in your life that needs a new road to success. You can't imagine being lifeless, you can't imagine being painless because life is full of failure and pain just so that you can learn to overcome the speed bumps that are meant to make you a better person. We are allowed to have our moments; we are also allowed to conquer the world as well.

The Man Who Ate Too Much
{Let the Tale Be Told} The roads this past November were particularly treacherous. In fact, more than once I considered turning around to drive back home. I owed it to the others to make it to Stonelodge for I knew Lumley, Whitt, and Landers would be there. Twenty years ago after winning a substantial jackpot in a national lottery we bought the house made of stone as a sort of retreat. Four bedrooms, two baths, a great room complete with hardwood floors, animal heads on the wall, and a fireplace we could stand in shoulder to shoulder.

These first two parts are the set up, but after that I'll let the chips fall where they may. Who lives, or dies, depends on what you want. Go over to Twitter and vote in the poles! @Maash2288 The first one's already up!

The African Prince and the Mayan Princess
Part 1 I continued to run through the darkness without taking the time to look back at my pursuer. I wanted more than anything to get the hell out of the abandoned building, immediately. Then suddenly, my ears had succumbed to a loud howl bellowing in the distance. As it got closer, it made me quiver as the howl erupted into my ears and sent tears rolling down my face.

An Account of a Psychopath
Nine times I’ve done it. Nine times I’ve watched the life drain away from my victim’s eyes; each time a little more euphoric than the next. I live for the moment their heart stops. That’s the best part for me. The moment the light leaves their eyes is the greatest thrill of all; a sweet relief, if you will. But nine is only a small number. I would have done it more if I could, but it’s not an easy exercise. It’s not just about the kill, you see. Each one takes weeks of planning.
