Oh, man, I had to go to school today on
those epilepsy drugs and it was hard just getting through the day. It
was just miserable. I had to take more drugs and nap more after I got
home too. Well, at least I got the power to do today's story, though
it definitely isn't as impressive as some I've written in the past. But maybe it'll entertain some of you so that's good.
Something He Can't Take
“What do you say now human?” The
alien with six eyeballs on its stomach laughed. It had two long
mouths stretching along its arms that each spoke with a different
tone of voice. “Your cities are being reduced to rubble and your
people are surrendering faster than they are fighting.”
“I say I'm keeping something that
you cannot take from me.” the human, now in rags, walked towards
the alien and pulled out a knife.
“What are you doing?” the alien
pulled out a blaster in response. “I'll shoot you down right here
if you don't surrender!” the human rushed towards the alien
ignoring the blaster shots going through his body. He almost reached
the alien, his knife less than an inch away from its flesh, but he
collapsed. The alien then grinned in both its mouths. “I'm now
taking your life, just like I took away your city and your family.
What could I not take from you human?”
“My honor.” the human said while
he looked up at the alien's six eyes.
Your story had a lot of emotional impact, regardless of those darn meds. Well done!
