It was one of the biggest bookstores in the city. In fact, it was the biggest. Sadly, it was also one of the casualties of the digital revolution. The owner had been on television the day before lamenting the declining sales and the advent of the ebook. It was partially their own fault, of course, since they refused to diversify, but that really wasn’t the biggest issue here.
I had turned up to buy as many interesting books as I could. I had grown up amongst the tall bookshelves and I wasn’t about to let it go without a fight!

viscus Morbus: prologue
Viscus Morbus Prologue
Location: Simei, Singapore
Date: 23/2/2013
Local Time: 0615
There had been several news reports on viral outbreaks. The experts had said that it was a new strain of virus, which they called Viscus Morbus. However, the government had acted fast, putting in place travel restrictions and quarantine measures. The populace had been assured that the situation was under control. However, no system is foolproof. Eventually, unknown to the authorities, a few carriers made it through and entered the country, and the rest is history. It was SARS all over again.
It was like any other school day. There may be a virus outbreak,

By the time the old bus rattled into the interchange, Galurath was getting impatient. Apparently I was already running late, though, on the bright side, I had managed to have a very nice nap on the bus. He hurried me, with Talorath in tow off the bus, all the way home, insisting that my students were already waiting.
Of course, Galurath was far from impressed with the public transport system. He spent a good portion of my short flight home making his displeasure known. He only shut up when I turned to Talorath and went, “Your dad has very high expectations of this place…” My tone made clear my annoyanc

Spacefleet 10: Complications
I was beamed straight to the bridge, where the other officers waited for my instructions. The ship was cloaked, and at red alert. We were ready for battle.
However, I had been instructed to avoid any hostiles... Hence, I glanced at my display, to find the engines at full power, ready to be engaged. "Alright. Jump to Trans-light Random course. Those ships must have detected us earlier... Hopefully we can shake them..."
"But sir, they're just scout craft. We can destroy them very easily!" One of the weapons officers protested.
"And then they'll call their bigger friends for help. No go. Engage. Now." I snapped,

NaNo novel: Displaced chapter 1
Displaced
Chapter 1: spirited away
As usual, I made my way to the library, toting a large bag full of work to boot. I was counting down to the big national examinations, which were but a week away. Left before my first paper, and I was nowhere as prepared as I would have liked to be…
I strolled into the library, the blast of cool air from the escaping air conditioning providing a refreshing respite from the hot muggy air of the outside. I made my way to the second floor where the study tables were. However, I was somewhat disappointed to find most of the tables already taken. I spent some time walking around, looking for a seat.

Seeing Things Differently
Chapter 1: Changes
"Alright, gentlemen, your 12 km route march will begin shortly, after which you'll be transiting directly to your field camp site. Understand?" Barked the sergeant, at the bunch of us recruits who had already formed up in our rows, ready to start the march.
Field camp is arguably the apex of a recruit's training, in which 4 days are spent living in the field, in this case the forest. It is the time when the sergeants get sadistic, sleep is lost, yet new things are still learnt. What ran through my mind as I shouted an affirmative together with the rest of the company was what our commander had sa

Taking Sides
-Chapter 13: Routine-
Eventually, the lesson ended after around three hours of intensive teaching. Of course, several arguments broke out, when Aurelius dismissed scientific fact as 'pure and utter nonsense', which included Newton’s laws.
Of course, the latter was easy enough to prove, which involved tossing a broken phone at the gold dragon, who batted it aside, sending it smashing into a wall. I accompanied this with the relevant explanation of how this related to F=ma. This, of course, prompted them to clam up and the lesson ran to it's end with a handful of arguments.
At the end, I agreed with Faelius that I would co

Chapter 82: The Last Stretch
As we approached, explosions from the artillery was already rocking the city, and black smoke was already billowing. However, Drak’rrth made no move to attack us. He seemed to want us to go to him. Or rather…since he never took his eyes off me, he wanted me…and not in one piece, no.
His stare sent shivers up and down my spine. It had me cursing and swearing as I drove, my discomfort evident, and its cause obvious.
As per our plan, we did the pincer manoeuvre, while part of the force charged the front gates, which were already rubble thanks in no small part to the excellent spotters

TR C16: Catching up
The Return
Chapter 16: Catching Up
I didn’t get to sleep that night. I drank several cups of tea, had a simple dinner, and argued with Talorath about the issue.
I argued that since the dragons here had integrated into society smoothly, and had settled in well, there was no logic in dragging them off the planet. Furthermore, it turned out that they were from what was more or less a dead world, and the plan was to resettle them elsewhere. I argued against that too, since their population was tiny, and they would have a very hard life on a new colony, while they were doing well here. I argued that it made more sense to just leave them, p

TI C1: Crashed
The Three Idiots
Chapter 1: Crashed
If anything, it had just been a particularly long run of bad luck.
It had started with something as innocent as a small fluctuation in the engine systems. It seemed to be neither serious nor noteworthy, and I elected to continue on my merry way, knowing how temperamental these old engines tended to be.
I should have cut the engines there and then.
While passing by a minor system of designation DDG-557, the Trans-Light drive failed, and shut down, stranding me in the system. Luckily for me, I managed to find a habitable class 5-C planet within the system. The sublight engines worked well enough, though,

“Really? Camping?” I remarked, rolling my eyes as I settled into my chair. “You know this is the first bit of leave we’ve both had in more than a year and you want to go and roll around in mud?”
“Well, it’s spring back home and you’re always on about finding time to smell the flowers, so I would like us to smell them.” Fiora retorted, her brightly lit office contrasting starkly with my dim quarters. The lights had been fried recently in an altercation with a few pirates, so all I had was my less than good table lamp.

I appeared with the usual bang. However, a quick glance around told me that this was in fact not Walmart. For one thing, there was no one here, and Walmart didn’t build their shops with narrow metal corridors.
The walls were metal, as was the floor and ceiling. Above me, lines of LEDs lit the corridor. There was an unfamiliar insignia painted on the corridor wall, and there were a few doors further down. In the background, there was a low humming in the background.
Obviously, my jump matrix had made a mess of things again. I was probably in a factory or something. Annoyed, I tried to teleport away, but the matrix did not respond. I ev

Weather Forecast
“The weather tomorrow will be slightly cloudy, with a high chance of showers…” The weatherman droned on, as I sat in front of the TV and had my dinner.
On my coffee table sat a folder, about this very weatherman. He, apparently had a real talent for predicting the weather. In essence, he was never wrong. If he said that there was a high chance of rain tomorrow, then it would rain tomorrow.
Hell, if he said that potatoes would fly tomorrow, they probably would.
This was why certain parties were interested in him.
I had been engaged to stick a camera in his home. This, of course required me to tail him fo
