Two-Tailed-Moon

Anthony was a junior-year high school student and member of his school's varsity basketball team. It was a gloomy Tuesday afternoon as the sixteen year old began heading home from practice. The sky was cloudy, and it looked like it was about to down-pour at any moment. Though he had wanted to pick up a gatorade at a local convenience store down the road, the teen figured he'd have a better chance of beating the rain if he just headed straight home instead. There was a large vacant lot across the road from the school building that conveniently connected to his block. Anthony and many of his friends often used it as a shortcut when commuting b

It was a scorching afternoon in a small town in upstate New York. "Lets see... what should I get.." A sixteen year old muttered to himself as he examined the menu board on the back wall of the small concession stand ahead of him. Darren visiting his town's public baseball diamond to watch a few of his friends play in a big highschool tournament game. The sun was particularly brutal this afternoon, making the shade under the stand's wooden canopy a much needed relief. Darren lifted the hem of his tee-shirt to wipe a bit of sweat from his forehead as the person on line ahead of him stepped away from the counter with their food. "Uh sir? Di

"Lets see... snacks.... tablet....lantern..."  A red shirted boy in blue pajamas whispered as he began unpacking his various belongings into his family's tent. It was a warm summer night in the cozy suburban neighborhood where two teens were getting ready to have their long awaited backyard sleepover. The sixteen year old friends had just finished their last day of school and decided it would be a great time to start their yearly backyard summer sleepovers. "Ugh, I know I'm forgetting something..." Aaron lightly smacked the side of his head trying to remember. *zip * The front flap of the tent rustled as it's zipper began to descend along

 *ding dong* Steve rung the doorbell twice before checking his bag to make sure he didn't accidentally leave anything back in his car. "Lets see......toiletries, board games, snacks...." Just as the eighteen year old highschool student finished double-checking his inventory, the front door opened. "Oh! Wonderful you're early!" A frazzled woman rushed past the teen while carrying a load of bags. "Turns out the party we're attending was just moved up a whole hour!" The woman rattled off as she and her husband quickly ran over to their car and began to pack it with party goods. "Josh is upstairs playing video games in his room as usual. Oh!

Eric was an average sixteen year old. He went to school, had friends, played sports. Aside from not having a girlfriend, there really wasn't much that he desired in life. However, one unique thing about Eric was his obsession with comic books. The Sophomore didn't really consider himself a nerd, but he had always been a huge collector of all types of super hero comics. At least once or twice a week he would head down to the local comic shop and try to find any new trade-ins to add to his growing collection. ------ Today was a Friday and Eric had just finished getting home from after-school soccer practice to grab a quick bite to eat. He wa

It was a late summer day at your house. You had taken up the responsibility of babysitting your six year old cousin Conner while both of your parents were gone on a boating trip.  It wasn’t the first time you watched the boy, and the both of you got along great. Conner really looked up to you, almost bordering on idol worship.   Every time the boy was over, he would smother you with attention, hardly ever even allowing you a moment to yourself. The little dude genuinely thought you were the coolest person ever. Having never had a little brother of your own, you fully welcomed the warm admiration. The kid didn't realize it yet, but you

Finally! after months of hard work, Brandon was ready to evaluate the results of his new prototype. Brandon wasn't like most young men his age, he was always reading and inventing. He had always dreamed of creating something that would change the world, something so groundbreaking that it would carry mankind to a whole new level of technological advancement. He got the idea when he was reading a science fiction book about a device that had the capability to transform whatever it targeted into something completely different. Once the idea was seeded, the teen knew he had to make the device a reality. He faced many challenges and obstacles, bu
