Trees, While They're Still Here

  A short story that could be our future, if we don't.... I t was a bright sunny morning, perfect for the kids to look at some remarkable antiques and old stuff owned by people in the early 20th century. They always found creatures like dogs, cats and others pretty fascinating, since they were nowhere to be seen nowadays. Other things were planes and ships, which were used for "travelling" according to some historians. Ships fascinated them the most, as the people still hadn't found out how humans used them. Like there are some theories that "water" was used as a medium of transport, but they couldn't be sure, as there was so little of it. The young guide took the school kids through the gates of the National Museum. She asked them their names, to which the eldest said - "I'm US234, survivor from the Americas.

The Woman In The Crowd

Errr.... THE YEAR 2045, WHEN HUMANS WILL HAVE MEMORY CHIPS INSTEAD OF THE BRAIN.. "Behave yourself, and don't come out before we tell you to. I'll be keeping an eye on you, so don't go out of the hall."said Mom. Even though I'm 15, and way past to be told not to talk to strangers, here I was, being lectured. We were at this party-beeep-ya now I remember-beeep-sorry. So sorry about that. That happens to me a lot, mostly because my brother fiddles with my chip comartpentm ! BEEEEP-he did it again. Wait....ya he's gone. So, it was my uncle's wedding. I was just sitting in a corner as I didn't know anybody. I was waiting for the guy who brought the starters, as I was drained. I was about to run(across the hall), but I was too tired for that too. Luckily, I found something to drink.  Then, suddenly, the doors opened, and a pretty, fair, tall and what more-woman came through. She was wearing black nail polish, and high heels. Something about her was ...

THE EVIL ONE

Curiosity kills the cat.... Marty was a normal teenager with a not so normal family. His mom was a housewife, while his father was a scientist. Neither of his parents were successful in life. They were just living off the money earnt by their parents. But in Marty’s eyes, they were successful people. The father, Hardy, was working on a top secret project. It was situated in the attic. No one except him was allowed to enter the attic, for he was afraid that someone might mess something. However, Marty was one of those typical curious kids who, when thought of something, there was no stopping them. He planned to find out what mysterious, peculiar project his father had been working on. Obviously, he didn’t think of the consequences that would follow. That night, when his father was out on a business trip(vacation), he decided to have a small glance at the article. He slipped out the door, and into the darkness of the stairway leading up to the attic. He couldn’t stand the suspen...

A Glimpse into the Future

[Theme Futuristic, Tween-range] Houston , America 3000 I was in the middle of this awesome dream, when I felt pure metallic solid tug onto my shoulder. "Wake up!! Clang! Bang! Wake up!! Clang! Bang!" "Stop it you stupid bot!! It's a Saturday!!!" Then, the old pest said something I feared. "You have to work out even on weekends, Armaan!!" "Oh, please have mercy on me! And, by the way, aren't you supposed to call me Sir !?" "Initializing!!" "What do you mean initializing ?? I've told you a thousand times, now!!" "No Armaan, you have stated this only 4,653,291 times to be exact!!" "Again ' Armaan ' !!" Then, I got out of bed, drowsily, yet angrily. I looked at my clock. It was still around 4:45. "Come on, Jet! You woke me three hours earlier!!" "Sir, today is a Saturday! You have a lot of time!!!" "Well, yeah. I have all the time in the world today and tomorrow....
