Apocalypse Days: I Rule with Foresight and a Powerful Son

You’d think seeing the future would give me a head start on surviving the apocalypse. I had it all planned—until everything I knew shattered when my husband sacrificed himself to save me and our son. Now it’s just me, my three-year-old son Leo, and my cursed gift of foresight that only seems to kick in when it’s nearly too late. I’m doing my best to keep us safe, to find food, to make some kind of plan— “Mommy?” I glance down, trying to ignore the tug on my pant leg as I focus on our supplies. “Not now, Leo. Mommy’s thinking.” “Mommy!” I sigh and finally look down. My three-year-old is standing there, clutching… I blink. “Leo, where did you get a knife?” He shrugs, grinning like it’s the most natural thing in the world. My heart stutters. “No, really. Where did you find that?” I try not to laugh. I mean, he’s three. Maybe he just—found it somewhere? But the next day, it’s a water bottle. Then, a tiny flashlight, somehow with batteries still inside. I don’t even know what else; he’s pulling things out one by one with the pleased grin of a kid who’s just figured out his favorite game. Well, we may just survive this mess after all. Now, if only the universe could have spared me from him. I don’t even know his name, but I know his type: tall, broad, and annoyingly handsome, with an air of calm control that’s out of place in this chaos. Ex-military, if I had to guess, with a voice that’s just as infuriating as his smirk. The man has a habit of showing up at the worst—or best—possible times, with a gun at the ready and secrets buried as deep as those bright green eyes. I mean, he’s probably useful, but I’m trying to keep my eyes on the prize here: survival. For Leo and me. Because, foresight or no foresight, nothing is guaranteed in this new world—except the fact that people like him are trouble.

The Crimson Chord

In a world where cultivation is the ultimate pursuit, Void, a being of pure abyssal essence, infiltrates the prestigious Azure Dragon Clan. Unlike typical protagonists, Void seeks not glory or redemption, but absolute domination. Possessing the insidious Abyssal Corruption System, he manipulates minds, corrupts souls, and shatters the very foundations of righteous cultivation. Void's journey is a descent into darkness, a calculated unraveling of moral boundaries. He transforms the noble Lin Hao into a vessel of ruthless ambition, twists the compassionate healer Lan Yue into an instrument of corrupted healing, and turns the very heart of the Azure Dragon Clan against itself. With each corrupted soul, each shattered alliance, Void's power grows, his influence spreading like a plague. As he conquers the neighboring Serpent's Fang Clan through cunning manipulation and brutal exploitation, Void's ambitions expand beyond mere territory. He seeks to corrupt the "Heaven's Chosen," desecrate sacred grounds, and unleash the full potential of the Abyssal Summoning. This is not a tale of heroic ascension, but a chilling chronicle of absolute corruption. Void's path is paved with broken spirits, twisted loyalties, and the chilling realization that true power lies not in righteousness, but in the complete and utter mastery of darkness. In a world teetering on the brink of abyssal chaos, Void's chilling question echoes: can any light withstand the encroaching shadows, or will the world succumb to the absolute reign of corruption?

Doomsday Elevator

The elevator stank of burnt wiring and adrenal sweat. Lucas Hayes came to consciousness with his cheek pressed against cold steel, the floor vibrating with the machine's perpetual ascent. A cracked display panel flickered: DAY 9 | SAFETY DURATION 00:03:44. Three warped tones echoed as the system imprinted directly onto his retinas: [Precognitive Matrix Activated] [Sector Transition Imminent] His vision fractured into augmented reality overlays. Bloodshot eyes darted between floating diagnostics: [Destination: Floor 248] Threat Classification: Standard Biohazards (Homo corruptus) x20 Recommended Arsenal: Bladed weapons (76% efficacy) Reward Manifest: Silver Cache (Full eradication required) Lucas gripped the shock-baton strapped to his thigh, its ceramic surface still smeared with luminescent fungal spores from yesterday's skirmish. The elevator's speakers emitted a decaying piano chord as new text scrolled through static: [Destination: Floor 249] Containment Unit: Obsidian Reliquary (SCP-XXXX Variant) Threat Level: White (Placid) His boot tapped rhythm against the floor where Natalie Evans had bled out seven cycles ago. The memory played in crystal clarity - her screams syncing perfectly with the elevator's current pitch-shifted rendition of Clair de Lune. [Destination: Floor 250] Entity Designation: Noctis lamia (Cognitive Hazard Class C)* Survival Probability: 41.2±18% The control panel erupted in fractal patterns as reality glitched. Lucas glimpsed William Carter's skeleton key lodged in the emergency brake slot - the same key that had melted through three layers of Kevlar when its owner died. "Beta protocol. Always beta." He smashed blood-crusted knuckles against the floor selector. The elevator screamed in harmonic resonance as it deviated from its programmed path.

The Adventure of Piggy Girl

Hi I'm Gold, chubby, not so beautiful, 5 feet and 1 inches ang height, 70 kilograms ang timbang, at 20 years old. Yes that's me, alam kong pangit at mataba ako so what? Di bali ng mataba at least may hot boyfriend ako. Ayaw niyong maniwala? Pwes ikukwento ko sa inyo kung paano ako nakabinggit ng gwapong jowa. Sabado ng gabi, naglalakad lang ako sa divisoria namili kasi ako ng mga gamit para sa pagbabawas ko ng timbang. Plano ko ng magbagong buhay. New Year's resolution ko kahit Octobre na ngayon. Kalalabas ko lang sa ukay-ukayan ni Lola Doris, sa gilid ng tindahan niya ay may eskinata , short cut papunta sa aming bahay. Pumasok na ako sa eskinita ng may mapansin akong umiilaw sa basurahan. "Ba't umiilaw to? Baka may LED flashlight sayang naman kung tinapon lang." Lumapit ako sa trash can, kahit mabaho ay binuksan ko ito. "Wow! Di pala to flashlight ito yung sa shopee na korteng buwan na umiilaw. Ba't naman to tinapon!" Nilagay ko sa daan ang mga pinamili ko, kumuha ako ng wet wipes sa bag at pinunasan ito. Matapos ko itong mapunasan tiningnan ko ulit kung may dumi pa, sa gitna nito may kaunti pang dumi na natira kaya pinunasan ko ulit. Ng idikit ko ang aking hintuturo para punasan ito bigla nalang parang may switch na napindot ko at umilaw ng malakas. Nabitawan ko ang buwan, biglang lumindol, may malakas na hangin na parang hipo hipo na hinihigop ang lahat ng mga basura, dahon, mga damit sa ukay ukay, lamesa, isda at iba pang gamit na nasa divisoria. Hindi ako makapagsalita, di rin makakilos dahil sa sobrang takot. Nakatingin lang ako sa buwan. Sa utak ko, nasasayangan ako sa mga nagastos ko sa mga pinamili ko dahil ang mga panty,bra na victorias secret sa ukay ukay ko lang nabinili ay hinigop din. Malakas na tilian ang naririnig ko, ako naman ay naiihi sa takot dahil unti-unti rin akong hinihigop, hangang sa paliit ng paliit ng nakikita ko. May kahoy na lamesa ang lumipad papunta sa akin at natamaan ako sa ulo.
