Army of Giants

“I told you, nothing is unreachable!” Marshal grinned.

“We still have some blocks to climb, though,” John replied catching breath.

“Always so negative,” Marshal laughed. “We’re already…”

One of the blocks moved in a distance. It rose. Two red eyes shone towards them. A stone giant of cubic shapes, just like the blocks around them. Like the one underneath them. Another stood up. Then another. And another.

“We got to get away from here…”

Two red eyes lit on the rock in front. The ground under their feet trembled…

A troll listening to a bondfire story fictionspawn Aak

Sides of the Story

The huge mountain troll had been listening to the story from his cave underneath. He remembered the event like it was yesterday, even though he could not count the winters gone by since then. Disgusting little humans coming around to steal his gold.

“Once upon a time…”, followed by lies, lies and other lies. “The greedy troll”, they said. That smelly little human described as a hero.

-Run! Run for your lives!

She viewed out on the creatures who had created what she had become.

Rooooaaaaarrrr!!!

People fled in panic, away from the mass coming up from the sea. A polar bear condemned into exile, fused with all kinds of artificial waste. A radioactive plastic monster.

Andrew froze, unable to believe his eyes. He had known ever since his teenage years there would be consequences of mankind’s destruction, and now he was staring it in the eyes. A barrel knocked him down. Plastic bags stuck to his face, around his arms and body…

Space Eggs

There they are. What might they be?

They’re not from here, that’s for sure.

By the great rings! Those disgusting creatures are stealing the eggs! I’ll kill…

Wait… Not just yet. Look.

…

This is amazing. I didn’t even expect to find microorganisms so soon, and here we are bringing back eggs.

Sure is beyond my wildest dreams. Let’s get it up on the…

Wait, something is happening. It seems to be hatching…

Escape

-Get him! Get the bastard!

He ran up the hills, but the men were coming closer. He needed to reach the lake. They wouldn’t follow him into the lake, he knew that. They were too afraid of getting wet.

He jumped out from the cliff. As he fell something came up from the water… (Click image to keep reading)
