Hey, all! So, looking through my old stuff, I've run across some of the stories I wrote back in 9th grade! (Wow, that was a long time ago....) I'll be the first to admit - the writing's pretty lousy, and there are a LOT of plot devices. But it's decent stuff, so I figured I'd post the two big ones I wrote, featuring a future scientist named Xelnak. He's in both of them, even though there's little connection.
THE FUTURE HURTS- This one's about a miserable kid who tries to take his own life, but in a twist of fate, he winds up twenty years in the future instead, and is forced to deal with the questions of what he truly wants for himself.
OVERLOAD- On a scientific mission to the moon, astronaut Felicia Stevens undergoes a bizarre transformation, giving her unlimited power, but when this becomes uncontrollable, something must be done to contain her.

"No, I dont want those stories, I want HEROES AND VILLAINS"
"*stabs you*"
But now I don't have to stab you, goooood for you.

ANNOUNCEMENT!
Well, everyone, Heroes and Villains is going good - Season Three, Episode Five is now up. Hopefully, I'll be ready with Season Four shortly after the current one finishes up.
However, I have another story in the works. Some of you already know about it - this work will be titled THE OVERSEERS! It features a group of eight superheroes: One-Shot, Nightshade, Mindworm, Savage, Quickfoot, Energy Girl, Monstro, and Jedi. They will be put to the test, however, when an old villain surfaces with plans for world domination. Who will win??
The series is going to be 10-15 chapters altogether, though the chapters themselves are of varying length. I'm going to start this off with six promos, the first of which will be up in a few days! So in-between episodes of Heroes and Villains, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for THE OVERSEERS!

No, that's "The Ideal World of Veronica Smith." This one I'm writing on my own - the promos are to introduce the characters so you guys have some feel for it, 'cause there is no way I'm telling you anything about the plot!

The first Overseers promo will go up tomorrow. In the meantime, I've written a short story (yes, another one), though it's probably too short to warrant it's own topic, so I'll just post it here. It's titled,
GETTING MY MIND OFF THINGS
Today, I said, I would get my mind off things. I'd hang out with friends, play video games, see a movie, eat ice-cream - all the mindless distractions which this country was built on. No more sulking around the house, no more feeling all this pathetic pity for myself. Today, I would be a free man. And so it began - all the usual kids came by to pick me up, and started the day at Wesley's house. His parents were away, and we could be as wild and crazy as we wanted - meaning, of course, that Jeff was charging around the house shirtless in a matter of seconds, waving his clothes in the air and screaming, "I am Tarzan!" Then he crashed into a vase and Mike dived down to catch it moments before it hit the floor. After we'd settled down, we went to Wes' room to play Halo. As usual, I was the MVP, and pissed everyone off with my showboating. You're the only one who was ever able to put up with that, you know. The other guys can't stand it - after just a few levels, they'd called it quits and we were on to the next task. Gathering in the car, we drove over to Carvel, blasting rock music as we went. As we all rocked out to it, I cracked a smile, remembering your love for the genre and wishing you were there. At Carvel, Jeff ordered three scoops of chocolate, cherry, and peanut butter ice-cream all one cone. Mike put out a few bucks that he couldn't eat the whole thing, which led to Wesley planting a few more, and my ten to top it off. Jeff took one lick and the tower toppled over, splattering across the pavement. It was a blast! As for me, I kept it modest, with a scoop of cookie dough in a cup. I never cared for the cones - do you remember that time that the guy gave me a cone anyway? I took a bite and it was hideous, and we sat in the train for an hour as my ice-cream melted all over my hand with no end in sight. Finally, you tore some styrofoam off your cup and gave it to me for use as a spoon. It was so disgusting, but so great! I miss those days…. After the ice-cream, we went back to the car and listened to Green Day. That was always your favorite band - I remember seeing American Idiot on Broadway with you, and I didn't get it and you had to explain the entire plot. You got pretty annoyed that day…. I hope I wasn't too irritating - you know I never meant to be a pain. When we arrived at the movies, we went through our selection, and finally decided on that new action flick, that one where that actor's girlfriend is kidnapped. It's kind of like that one we saw together - our first movie. Do you remember that? We pigged out on the popcorn and got all sorts of candy to go with the movie. I remember when you bought all that junk food, and I was like, "What about dinner?" and you replied, "I'm on a diet." I still can't figure what happened there. I wish you'd tell me. I wish you'd at least speak to me. The movie was long, over two hours. It wasn't that good - it was slow-paced and boring, and all I could think about was you. I mean, can I help it if that girl in the background looks like you? Can I help it if the actress shares your style, your wit, your attitude? And can I help it if all that keeps me paying attention is the thought of what I'd do if I were that character, and if you were the one who was kidnapped? The guys were all pretty bored by the movie (except for Jeff who loved it), and we went back to Wesley's house to finish the day with some beer. I didn't drink any, though - that was always your one rule, no alcohol. Marijuana's all right, but alcohol is off-limits. We sat around in Wesley's basement, talking about all the times we'd had. And then came the big revelation - Mike's latest crush. The gossip began, as everyone shared their stories about her, the crush with the same name as you. And as the conversation went on, I sat there in silence, praying only that the topic would change, that I would get my mind off things, off you. They just when on about how she'd always crush on random guys, how she liked older men, how she'd act like she hated everyone, how they could all totally see her going steady with Mike. And this entire time, all I could think of was how you'd always crush on random guys, how you liked older men, how you'd act like you hated everyone. And then you brought up you. The two girls with the same name, who are so much alike, and who really need to meet. They looked to me, and said, "Aren't you friends with her?" and I just shook my head and stayed silent. All I could think of was how badly I screwed up, how desperately things needed to go back to the way they were, and how they never would, no matter how hard I tried, no matter how long I waited, because the simple fact remains that you hate my guts for what I did and there is no possible way to make it up to you, just no way, but I want to try anyway. And that is why I'm at your doorstep now, begging - yes, begging - that you'll so much as come down the stairs.

Y'know, I don't get it - how can two people who have known each other for so long, who got married, had kids - who stayed this way for a good twenty or so years - how can, all of a sudden, they hate each other's guts with no logic behind, no reasoning, just an intense unbearable hatred, with no recollection of anything good, no compassion or mercy, just an utter hate without focus which will never die no matter what happens regardless of everything good that they've had together, everything they've shared, as if none of that ever happened even though it has happened, but now it doesn't matter and all that does matter is the bad even though it wasn't really THAT bad even though they tell me it was and there are apparently things I don't know which I may or may not want to know but won't know if I want to know without first knowing what is I don't know which I don't know if I want to know unless I were to know first what it was but that's besides the point because after everything that's good it just suddenly doesn't matter and what could possibly change that suddenly a bitter undying hate is that can be felt by either party? Is that the fate of everyone - is everyone like that? Are we all capable of hating the people we love?
