One Long Night

She didn't know how she got to the house, she was out of her mind, she saw herself and Thais walking along, as if she saw two strangers in the distance or the characters of a ridiculous movie on a screen. When Thais had arrived she had fallen asleep immediately, but she was there, thinking about the possibility that was destroying her. She thought about his previous relationship, she had also been betrayed and she thought that would be the last time someone would hurt him, but now he found himself there living the same nightmare. - @jetta.amaya

The night of the devil

So for some time now I experience very real terrors when I watch a film of this genre. Horror has always been one of my favorite genres in film, but since I started to identify these elements, I can't help but be overly moved. No doubt this happens to me because I know for a fact that things like this happen every day, in some house some woman, some girl or boy lives it; and in real life it's not about ghosts or monsters. - @aly.squid

Sagebrush's Gift

"Oh, he's adorable! Jet black like his father. And he has Sagebrush's white splotches!" Georgia gushed, as she looked at the little colt, whose big eyes never left her.
"Where's Sagebrush?" she asked, after gazing at the new miracle for a few more seconds.
"I don't know, but she can't be far. Please stay with the colt while I look," Wes replied, frowning. - @wrestlingdesires

A Tradition That Doesn't Stick

It was a smooth day with no special occasions, only a wedding that only heightened my want for a companion. Eventually I strolled early into church, a bit tipsy and feeling all guilty. I looked around and saw religiously pious faces looking all thankful and sober with their little envelopes in hand like seasoned swordsmen war ready and thirsty for blood. - @diikaan

The Secret to Flying

This wasn't right... it wasn't wrong though, either. Not truly. With a deep breath, just like mom taught her, she tried to think on the bright side. She was flying! Did she really care about swimming when she could soar?
Yes. She did, however the feeling passed. As bravery took hold, San dived down into the trees, coming up with leaves within her hair. She surfed the treetops like a wave, forgetting now that there was a time she did not fly. She spent all day like this, until she found a lake hidden under the canopy of the massive forest. - @grindan
