Rik couldn't afford college, so he took a janitor job at a virology lab. One night, he cleaned up a broken test tube. Soon, his beard stopped growing. His Cheetos-and-donut paunch disappeared. Suddenly, when he talked, people actually listened. Sure, he could see spirits, too, and a high-ranking devil may or may not be hunting him, but mostly this was great. Then his sister caught the virus. And others. If the virus spread out of control, what would happen? An angel apocalypse? The hordes of hell's minions could not afford to have the human race turn into angels. To stem the spread of the angel virus, they invaded. Suddenly, it was up to Rik and Trixie to save the city, and themselves, and maybe the whole human race. --- Complete. Still polishing. As might be inferred from the title, this story deals in a loose way with Christianity, one of the five major world religions. It is not, however a "Christian story" in the sense of illustrating actual religious experience or practice. I just thought I'd be plain about that here, so readers can decide whether to turn the page or not. This story is an urban fantasy and it is entirely fictional. Content rating: teen. Winner! 2nd place, Punk Rock Awards 2022, paranormal category. Copyright 2022, Guy Worthey, all rights reserved.

𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗬𝗦 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥 · 12x FEATURED · A gothpunk sci-fi horror short story with Tokyo Ghoul vibes | In a degenerate future, the city of Nodrog resides in an O'Neill cylinder around a red dwarf star. Mired in vice, this gritty place is inhabited by the vomons--what humans call zombies. In the tallest tower at the heart of Nodrog, Madame Blair awaits the return of her cargo ship, Black Bull. To her daughter, Manda, it's just another day in the city--or that's what she lets on. A block away, in a tottering Pen, a young human female called Frizz makes a daring escape plan to board a ship and journey to the wilds of Earth. This isn't a tale of the apocalypse or zombies-among-us. Vomons are the "people"--they are the status quo. © 2021 Su Vida | Exclusively on Wattpad *** FEATURED: @BeyondSol @Fright @ScienceFiction @YA @Action + 7 more WC: 6,400 Trigger Warnings: Rated M for a pinch of gore and thematic material (because zombies, though these aren't your traditional mindless corpse kind).

[2021 WATTYS WINNER] It's summer for Mikey Marks, and that means everything is about to change. Usually, that would mean preparing for college, going to watch movies in the park with her best-friend-slash-sibling Roux, and an endless ray of sunshine over their small Florida town. Fate has other plans for her, though. Fate and biology. When Mikey grows a pair of horns and finds out she's half-demon, she tracks down her father at a local gas station and demands answers. As it turns out, Doug the demon is totally willing to help her rectify this situation. Together, the three of them set out on a road trip to a theme park in Nevada, where Doug has a friend who can help. That's not all, though. Things won't stop going wrong-- accidental cannibalism, Roux almost drowning, facing down demons wearing Mikey's face... Mikey has a lot to figure out, and she had better do it quick.

On a crisp, fall morning, Valerie Rossi is stopped by a stranger, asking if she's Valentina Moreno--a child who went missing in Yosemite National Park twenty years ago. Curious, Valerie's friend Julian looks up the age progression photo recently shown in the news, and the uncanny resemblance is too much to ignore. Especially because of the reoccurring dream Valerie has of a shadow snatching her in the night. Suddenly, something doesn't feel right, so she digs for answers by turning to the one person she might not be able to trust: her father.

Stories are written by the winners. Winners who never fail to paint themselves in a 'favorable' light. I've been called evil. Twisted. Strange. Heartless. All fair assessments; I dispute none of these claims. In fact, I hold my head high while confessing to the evil, twisted, strange, and heartless things that I've done. The things, those ignorant of the truth, would condemn. But all people are capable of all things under the right conditions, good or bad. Don't believe me? I dare you to read my story and tell me if you would have--could have--done things differently. One of your most beloved fairy tale classics retold. Get all sides of the story.
