Former Presents – Preamble Two days, and you’ve only managed this? 154 words? Are you serious? A seat. A button at knee height. An old man in a wooden box. Cedar and something like warmth. Fist against his chest. Press…

I've drafted a new opening scene for a literary speculative fiction story.

“In life you get to choose whether you juggle with distractions or become a master of actively looking for void. The path of an enlightened warrior must be walked, and only you can do it.”

Daring to lift the veil rewards the brave with sparks of ingenuity.

"So you really thought you were God?" she asked with a genuine curiosity. "What did it feel like?"
"Honestly, on some level it felt pretty great," I said.
"No doubts in your mind, no questions about the universe; everything just felt 'true.""
"Ok, so what did it feel like on the other 'levels'?" she
followed up with a chuckle.
"Absolutely fucking terrifying," I said bluntly. "That last little bit of your sanity becomes a small passenger at the back of your mind, not in control, watching everything go up in flames as you lose touch with reality. Your mind moving faster and faster—nothing making sense but the wheels keep turning and accepting every piece of nonsensical thought as some 'ultimate truth.' Not to mention the terrified reactions from the people that you share your newfound deific status with. In hindsight, it was a pretty fascinating thing to experience, but I really wouldn't recommend it."
"Wow," she said. "I don't think I've ever met anyone
quite like you before, Olivia."
"How did you end up here, Eva?" I asked
"I tried to take my own life," she said. "I couldn't even
do that right."

Jailhouse Kitty The cinderblock walls didn't offer much in the way of comfort, but for Elene, they finally felt like a home. This shift in perspective was entirely due to Kylie, a sleek calico with a notched ear and a permanent expression of mild judgment. The feline was part of the "Purrfect Pals" initiative. When she arrived, she was a "hisser"—a cat the shelter staff deemed too reactive for a standard foster family or a permanent home.

Elene realized the program wasn't just about looking after a cat. It was about reminding the woman behind bars that she was still human. #fictionstory

The Law of Love The law offices of Sherwood Law Group were a fortress of rigid professionalism. Misha Robins, a Harvard Law grad with a self-engineered career path, was focused on her workload. The last thing she needed was the "distraction" the senior partners had assigned her: mentoring a summer associate named Brett. Then, he walked in a few hours later. Brett didn't just enter a room; he seemed to ease into it, as if the space had been waiting for his arrival.

She thought she was training an intern; she would soon realize she was meeting the rest of her life. #fictionstory

Goodbye, New York! The move to California hadn't been the grand finale Olivier Hayes expected. He stood on the balcony of the suburban house his wife had found, clutching a steaming cup of coffee with the same suspicion he usually reserved for a bad review in the local newspaper back home in New York. "Louisa, darling!" he hollered over his shoulder. "Does this city feel too sunny and bright to you?

He had his leading lady, but he was desperately missing his stage. #fictionstory

Shadow’s Flame In the jagged shadows of Seraph's floating islands, Alcyona watched him. To the rest of the world, High Priest Zagatto was a cold monolith of absolute power, a man who had defied the very laws of their world. To Alcyona, he was the sun around which her soul drifted in a desperate, freezing orbit. She stood at the edge of the darkened balcony, the wind whipping her indigo robes.

She was a shadow chasing a flame that was already consuming someone else. #fictionstory

No Plan The warehouse was dark, save for the blue glow of the server stacks and the light over Elias's workstation. He was sitting with his back to the door, staring at a static screen, looking smaller than he ever had. The heavy metal door groaned loudly as Kathrine pushed it open. Elias stiffened, his shoulders squaring instinctively as she entered.  "The average dinner duration is two hours and fifteen minutes," Elias said, his voice sounding hollow.

"I don't have a plan for what happens next," he admitted. Kathrine chuckled, a tear slipping down her cheek. "Neither do I, Elias. Neither do I." #FictionStory

An Amicable End The restaurant was one of those quiet, upscale bistros where the lighting was dimmed to hide the rest of the world. Across the table, Matthew was recounting a story about his time in the Navy, but Kathrine couldn't hear him as the words that Elias had said earlier played over and over in her mind like a broken record. "I am rooting against the numbers," Kathrine repeated under her breath.

It was an amicable end between them so she can finally listen to her heart. #FictionStory

Against the Numbers The abandoned warehouse was uncharacteristically quiet, the hum of the servers providing a low-frequency backdrop to Elias's internal struggle. He was staring at a monitor, but the lines of code had blurred into a singular, mocking image of Naval Lieutenant Matthew Carter's smug smile. Logically speaking, Matthew was handsome, capable, and—most frustratingly—emotionally accessible. He was the better choice as a romantic partner for Kathrine.

"Yet for the first time in my life, I find I am rooting against the numbers." #FictionStory

Observing the Past Asanashia Renoir stood in the center of the Chronos Circle, the blue ring of light humming beneath her knee-high, dark brown, high-heeled boots. Across the observation glass, a male voice crackled through the intercom, thin and clinical. "The calibration is set for exactly 365 days, Ms. Renoir," the voice said. "Remember: you are only an observer. You cannot prevent what is going to happen, nor can you save your friends.

Unfortunately, her pleas went unheard as she was pulled back into the future, leaving the fates of her beloved friends to the cruel history of time. #FictionStory

Best Friend Wives The steam rising from the two mugs of tea was the only thing moving in the Smithsonian Forensics Lab breakroom. Erin sat across from Michaela, her posture characteristically straight, though her eyes held a mischievous glint that usually only appeared after a successful identification. "Three hours," Angela said, leaning in until her elbows rested on her knees. "My husband spent three hours—three…

Erin and Michaela discuss about their husbands. Wonder what they will talk about? #fictionstory

Unwilling to Listen Meira had always been known for her stubbornness. In her small town, she was the girl with dreams as vast as the ocean, yet she was determined to carve her own path, regardless of who stood in her way. When she graduated from high school, her friends and family gathered to celebrate. "You should consider going to college," her mother suggested.

Maybe there was strength in accepting help from others, even if one is unwilling to listen. #fictionstory
