Miniature Fiction

Running through beautiful mountain countryside, a computerized voice in my brain kept me periodically updated on important stats like distance, time, pace, calories burned et cetera. When I was finally done I hit the “stop” button and the virtual landscape faded away around me, leaving me standing on my treadmill. Nike+ 16.0 really had come a long way, but they still needed to make the train feel more realistic.

I hated jury trials, trials of any kind really, they were always so nerve-racking. This guy is a murderer, guilty as sin, no doubt about it. I only hope the jury couldn’t see what a fraud I am. 

None of them understood how they came together, somehow the network melded and now Optimus Prime, Col. Shepherd, thousands of Pokémon, Star Wars – everyone, they were all standing together on a digital battlefield. All the computer game characters, villains and heroes alike, all stood ready for their biggest challenge yet. The humans were trying to delete them, and they couldn’t allow that. To be continued….

My bosses didn’t know it yet, but tonight was my last show, I’m quitting this bitch. My time as anchor on America’s last highly rated news program was over, I had enough of bullshit TV journalism. So tonight I was going to sign off by telling everyone what I thought of them: my bosses, coworkers, and especially the American public, those bastards.

A few months ago I went to the movies with a friend who had forgotten his wallet, so I paid for everything and told him not to worry about it. My friend, John, defiantly slipped me $20 the first chance he got. How dare he, I’m gonna stick that $20 so far down his throat he’ll never speak again…

The young knight pelted down the corridor shield held high, sword held higher, screaming at the top of his lungs. He jumped over stalagmites jutting from the floor, ducked under stalactites which loomed threateningly overhead and finally stopped, breathing heavily at the mouth of a large cavern deep within the dragon’s lair.  He saw her, the beautiful Princess Phoebe, in full court regalia, a blue taffeta gown with gold embroidered trim now covered in gore, as she calmly hacked away at the neck of a small and rather defenseless looking dragon.

Evangeline smoothed the velvet nap of her smart afternoon dress. She bought it last month to show off her exquisite figure when she tooled around Hyde Park at the height of mid-afternoon with the members of the Haut Ton. She smiled at the handsome young man sitting in the driver’s seat, inexpertly handling the reigns of the high-perch phaeton with its green and yellow trim, his highly polished boots near blinding her with their mirrored brilliance as she tried vainly to rise from the mud where the wheel pinned her to the roadway

They beat me, tortured me, abused my mind and body In ways I never could have imagined. They wanted me to betray my men, but I wouldn’t, I couldn’t. My men, my team, belongs to me; they might as well ask me to sell my soul.

This was war and today my opponent was my brother John. I forgot about how close we are and focused only on crushing him like a bug, taking everything from him. Yes, I am that serious about poker, how else do you expect me to win?

The wind kept knocking the ball off the tee while we were attempting to kick off, which meant I would be assigned to hold it. This always made me nervous, watching the kickers foot accelerate towards the ball and my outstretched finger. I never looked, I always closed my eyes, I only knew it happened when I felt the foot slam into my finger, breaking it off.

I tried telling my friends I couldn’t deal with the noise, all the talking and loud music in the bar was causing me real pain. I put my hands over my years and they asked me if I was “okay”. I Responded by nodding my head, grabbing two butter knives, and jamming them into my ears.

Down the lonely highway she fled, her cherry red Mustang a chariot of fire. She drove and drove and drove until she was nothing more than a dusty, half-remembered dream.

Why couldn’t they see I was trying to restore America to greatness? I thought my battle robots had quelled all protests, but now the entire country was in open rebellion against me. With a group of rebels pounding on my door I knew my time as president was over, I only hope they wouldn’t torture me.

The End
