《Big Red Button.》The first snack.
Advertisement
You eat the cupcake, wrapper and all.
And don’t die.
Shocking.
Now what?
You press the button.
Ding.
You don’t eat the cupcake.
It’s probably stale anyways.
Now what?
You press the button.
Ding.
The cupcake has vanished.
The lightbulb up on the ceiling has turned into a disco ball. There are now speakers in the top corners of the room, blasting out classic disco music.
Admit it, you know the words to this song. You know all the words.
You start dancing. You try not to, but the beats are undeniable.
Don’t worry, no one is watching. Not even me, I swear. I’m deff not recording you, you don’t have to be shy.
Ok so, while you were dancing your heart out, I went and had lunch. Thanks for giving me the time. I hope you enjoyed yourself.
Who am I kidding, you totally enjoyed yourself. I know, because I kinda showed a live feed to all my coworkers, and we laughed our asses off.
Sorry if that makes you trust me less. That wasn’t my intent.
Do you want me to change the music? Maybe get some line dances in the playlist?
Oh, wait, you’re probably really thirsty, aren’t you?
Don’t want you to pass out from dehydration. I mean, “danced to death” would be great as an obituary, but you have so much more entertainment value in you. It would be a shame if you died now.
Just push the button, and I’ll make sure there’s a bottle of water sent in.
Just push the button, and you’ll have water.
I swear nothing weird will happen. Well, ok, I can’t promise that, but whatever happens, water will be in your immediate future.
What, you want food too?
Ok, fine, I’ll make sure some food is sent in, too. What kind of food? I don’t know, it’s not my job to get you food! Your food will be provided by-

Look, you’ll have food, and it’ll be edible, and all of your dietary restrictions will be accounted for.
Well, I don’t know what your dietary restrictions are, but you filled out that form, reme…
I mean… we just know. Magically. Because we’re smart like that, and have advanced science-y things that can scan your body and tell us that you’re allergic to whatever the hell you’re allergic to, and whether or not you’re vegan. Yep, that’s totally how it works.
Will you press the damn button already?
Aaaand you’re dancing again. I’m glad you’re having such a great time with that disco music. How long do you think you can keep it up?
Forever?
Yeah, I doubt it, dude.
Look, I was trying to be nice earlier when I offered the bottle of water. I don’t have to do that.
So either take your chances with fate, or press the button. I’ll give you five seconds.
Five…
Four…
Three…
DO YOU PUSH THE BUTTON?
Yes
No

Evolution (Rewrite)
In a single instant, we lost everything. All the technology and progress made by the humankind stopped working. However, that was just the beginning of a new age of evolution — an era marked by battles and fighting for survival to make humanity reach the next level. To me, the end of our civilization made me realize many things. It made me realize how I was short-sighted and weak. Many people died in just a few days. And that made me understand how humankind was soft. But in the end, all my struggles were for naught. In the end, everything made me understand what I truly was. I was just a...

Demonic Requiem | The Epitome of Evil
He feared none but himself. As a human, Elias walked a cruel path which only got more vicious as he became a demon. Born as the son of the most powerful man in the continent, but lived a life no worse than a slave. His only friend being solitude. The further he endured, the further he began to lose his humanity. Even a point came when he lost all rationality and lived as a senseless demon. But no matter the obstacle. He endured. He learned. He survived. He evolved. As the rumors of his endeavors spread, many dreaded him, many worshipped him and many bowed before him.Nonetheless, Elias continued to walk on his path. The path of a demon. As time passed, Elias terrorized the world with his evil and devious means. People deemed him as a threat who could no longer be ignored. Many empires united. They allied, and an all-out war started. But, be it the cruelty of fate or their foolishness, the alliance lost. Elias stood as the lone survivor, but alas, he lost his life from an unforeseen cause. But for better or worse, his story still seems to have not ended. Elias gets reborn back when he was young, and the path he walked once, he will walk again, but this time the one who suffers will not be him. What to expect: This story is based on the concept of "What if a villain, gets a second chance?". Hence it contains a lot of torture, torment, and inhumanity. Revenge or such feelings do not drive Elias, so it's not a revenge story. There won't be any rape scenes or incest. It's also not a story like that. But expect some cruelty and torture along the way. Also, it's a slow-paced novel. In short: A lunatic who terrorized the world with devious power and cruel means gets reborn, this time becoming even more powerful and ruthless. Link for the Cover Art:

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of The Creeping Bam (BOOK ONE: The Job)
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Then thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed – its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they’re still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They’re also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn’t yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn’t even know is coming … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.
