From Fisherman's Son to Gladiator
The monsters were defiant and horrible, but he who has seen the troubled sea never fears anything again. I shot at their thousand eyes and thousand mouths until they fell at my feet. None was like any other. Sometimes huge three-headed cats or hedgehog pelicans, or even flying jellyfish of electricity. Not even claws, fangs, tentacles, or flares could do me in. I was a gladiator. When they fought above the coliseum were ships, balloons, and floating cars screaming my name. -@ricardo993

Captured!
The sound of his breath was close. Too close. She didn't have time to think. Just run! Pushing off from the tree, she sprinted desperately towards the pond. Fifty yards. Forty-five. Forty! She could make it! He was faster, but she had the elements of surprise, adrenaline and determination. -@stormcharmer

"Those were dreams", the man explained as Ryadh stood with a scared look on his face "Those were dreams, your entire life you have dreamt of exacting revenge for what happened to your parents. In exchange for you giving me your soul, I guarantee you that they all will be punished." -@amirtheawesome1

The World We Know
My mother was still fixated in the Old World Order, refusing to acknowledge the new one. She showed disrespect at the new government at every given opportunity. She was inciting protests and riots, plotting revolutions across the globe. She was aiming to topple the world government. -@bruno-kema

Life After Death
And that's where I started my search. For my proof of life after death. Proof that eventually, we would meet again. And together with my mom, we would be a family once more. I visited priests, pastors, Imams. I visited witches and wizards, voodoo experts and people who dealt in serious dark arts. I began to experiment. Going from shine to shine, in my search for enough power to summon my father and make sure he was okay, just one last time with him. -@ubani1
