Throwdowns only lead to showdownsAnd that’s the last thing we want in this townCause when the crowds start growing the tension gets highAnd before too long the fists start to flyThen the sirens do blare across the airLeaving everybody ready to stareOut across the darkened skyNo one wants to say goodbyeSo the brawl turns toContinue reading “Fight Of Fools”

Aurion Reflex
OK, this is not the story I originally intended on writing, not at all. In fact what I started, twice over, was a Sci-Fi Western but I couldn’t make it work, sadly. It’s scrapped now. Not sure if I’ll ever revisit it. In its place I came up with this story, quite inexplicably. This IContinue reading “Aurion Reflex”

Pieces In Play
This week’s story is influenced by Halo. If you know the franchise you’ll probably be able to tell. If not don’t worry it isn’t important other than this is a military sci-fi story. It has a bit of a twist to it too. Not going to spoil it but this is a longer story atContinue reading “Pieces In Play”
