The Dancer

It was the latest craze. All dancers were doing it.

How else did one stay thin enough to be on top?

Pills didn’t work, diets were useless—what was the harm in cheating a little?

Lucy’s flexibility had got her noticed.

The way her body moved and swayed with eerie grace.  She stretched, twisted, and turned in ways other ballerinas could only dream of.

So thin. So beautiful. So talented.

Little did they know. Lucy was long gone.

The tapeworm egg she had swallowed and allowed to develop had taken over her entire body.

It had always wanted to dance.

The Death of Heaven

His wings were ablaze, the heat intense as he marched upon the Golden City, alone.

Sammael tore the Gates of Heaven from their hinges, leaving rivers of molten gold in his wake.

The Host tried to stop him, but they could not. They would not. Any who tried were devoured by flame or cut asunder by Scythe.

Entering God’s Throne room, he smiled darkly. “Father, I’m home.” Sammael closed his eyes, hands spread wide, his flames swirling around him.

“Son, don’t!”

Too late.

A deafening explosion shook the Earth and the inferno swallowed Heaven, raining ash on the world below.
