KILLING SOME TIME IN COLON, PANAMAThursday, November 28, 1991(Adapted from journal pages)Prowled the area. Pretty rough. Seven or eight bars clustered within a couple of blocks. Started in the direction of one, that was inside from a lunch counter. Was deterred by a riot gun holding a man. (Or was it vice versa?) Had french fries instead.At a news stand, returned yesterday's purchased Zona Libre guide and bought a little volume of Emily Dickenson. Thirty-five cents.Hotel room.Classical music coming from Room 9 again. I meet its perpetrator, a Customs man from Zona Libre. The music playing? Franz Liszt? Beethovan's Fifth Symphony? In Hollywood it's "Tonight We Love".He claims to have travelled in a number of countries including Canada, Cuba, Chile, Haiti, Dominican Republice, Haiti, etc., etc. His first trip was involuntary, as a political exile for activity as a university student. "The people of Colon have always been in oppositionto whatever government is in power. "He talks English. I keep moving him back to Spanish. Fifty-eight years old. Claims his wife went to Costa Rica and forgot to come back, He pays $6.50 a night.His hobby is classical music. He reiterates several times that he keeps a gun.And repeatedly cautions me about how dangerous it is here. "Colon used to be clean and safe. You could snooze in the park and know you'd wake up, or pass out in a bar wearing a wristwatch and wallet and people would look after you. With the dictatorship everything went to shit."My query as to the rotting piles of uncollected garbage had elicited the foregoing.Romantic nostalgia? I have a hunch that these dirty, mouldy, stinking, crumbling, decrepit, rabbit warren slum tenements likely saw their hey-day long before ex-president Noriega was born.More kidding with the woman at the desk. Says she's married with a little girl. "Lastima", say I. "Too bad."…

(IMPORTANT: In progress of writing more chapters and setting up an updating schedule {edited 10/9/22} ~Jay <3)***There are definitely some plot holes, so read at your own risk lol. It's not the best since this is only my second story and it has a lot of events going on throughout the plot, but hopefully y'all like it nonetheless! I also have realized how severely cringy this story is soooo be prepared haha***Never in a million years did Kayla think she would have to go on a road trip across the country....with a stranger. After hearing her dad tell her that she needs to drive a boy, around her age, from Maine to California, Kayla flips out. Who wouldn't, right? But after a long talk with her father, Kayla reluctantly agrees to help. It shouldn't be too hard....right?Wrong.Apparently, it can be very hard. From flat tires, to getting lost, to car accidents, to being chased down by a gang of thieves, what should have been a simple road trip turns into something much more. During a chaotic week full of adventure, two strangers meet and bond in a totally unconventional way.~~~~~~~"Ok, up here take the next right. Wait, or is it left? Which road are we on again?" I sighed. These are going to be the longest two days of my life."We should be on 63.""No, we passed that road a while ago." I glared at Noah."Noah. Where are we?!"He hesitated, "I-I don't know.""You have got to be kidding me right now!"~~~~~~~Warning: will contain suggestive comments, but no swearing.…

Sometimes you'll never expect that someone comes to your life. Hindi mo alam kung dumating ba sya sa buhay mo para pasayahin ka or worst para guluhin ka. All of us has an enemy, an enemy that we will not want to be with. Minsan hihilingin mo na nga lang na mawala na sya sa mundo dahil sa sobrang pagkainis mo sa kaaway mo. Yes we will forgive those who sin against us, our "enemy" but what if it turns out na nagpatawad ka pero yung tinuturing mong kaaway eh mas malalim pa pala ang magiging kahulugan sayo. Hindi mo mamamalayan na yung taong pinakakinaiinisan mo eh mas mamahalin mo pa kaysa sa sarili mo. Life is so unpredictable. Different people's, different attitudes, different memories. Lahat may kahulugan and what would be happen if this two people that full of negatives in life met.Shantal Grace Gonzales is a well known girl that had a bad attitude. Sabi nila eh baka raw pinaglihi sa demonyo kaya ganun ang ugali nya. "Bully Bitch" yan ang madalas na tawag sa kanya. Aminado naman sya dun, well wag ka lang magkakamaling banggain sya dahil di sya nagpapatalo kahit na kanino. Babae, Lalake, Matanda, Bata, Wala syang pinapatos. Of course di lang naman sya ang may masamang ugali syempre may mas masama pa.Xean Crayne Lewis a half american and half filipino. A "Badass Jerk" Nasa kanya na ang lahat, good attitude lang ang wala. Alam nyo ba kung anong talent nya? Panggugulo sa buhay ng iba, dun sya magaling sa lahat. Pili lang naman ang pinagtitripan, pero iba kung magisip. Hindi mo na gugustuhing makatapat, sabi nga nila. Tahimik kung titignan pero isa rin namang demonyo. What will happen kung magtagpo ang landas ng dalawa? Yung tipong parehas sila ng takbo ng isip. Yung tipong parehas sila ng gustong gawin. Magiging magkasundo kaya sila or magiging greatest enemy nila ang isat-isa, or else magkaroon kaya ng sparks between them, a love? Is there a chance na mapakita nila ang good side nila, or mananatili lang na galit sila sa mundo.…

"And they all lived happily ever after, the end." The young girl's mother gently sighed in as she leaned over to place the hard covered book on the dresser beside her bed. "That's so unfair! That was the most stupid ending I've heard!" The young girl shifted uncomfortably on her velvet silk sheets."What do you mean by that, my dear?" Her mother's voice laced with concern, but her smile was still evident on her pale face. "The villain didn't deserve that fate! She deserves to live just as happily! A villain has way more potential than a pathetic wannabe princess! Plus a villain has much more monologue and creativity, they are complex individuals that are so very unpredictable. Don't get me wrong, being unpredictable makes a villain all the more interesting." Her mother's smile fell almost as quickly as her daughter's words sunk in."T-That's..one thing I will always love about you, my dear. You always look for the good in even the most wicked and twisted of people." She faked her smile. Her mother always knew her daughter had a more processed mind and complex way of thinking then other kids her age, but it made her nonetheless uneasy. "That's not what-" The young girl started but was cut short. "I will hear nothing more of it! Goodnight, Vivi. Sweet dream." The young girl's mother left leaving her untucked in, without a kiss, and so very lost. _________________________________________Vivian Quill didn't realize how isolated her entire life had been up until she stumbled upon a book in the woods. This was only the beginning of her story. The boy that came along with it was the end. People say you're future is set in stone, but we have the power to change that. In this moment Vivian had to contemplate her own future, but her choice was cost worthy, and oh-so very risky. She didn't realize those risks until she was faced with cleaning thick red liquid off stain glass windows. Once her most pushed aside thoughts began to become her most desperate wishes.…

In the aftermath of a world-altering conflict, Veridium emerges as a new order, molded by the ruling entity known as the Firm. The society is stratified based on birthright, where noble families give birth to the Beautiful Daughters, among whom one will rise to become the future queen. These women are bound by unwavering loyalty to the Firm, serving as pawns in their grand design. For two centuries, the Firm has meticulously chosen a single family to rule over Veridium, their reign perpetuated by a peculiar requirement - they must bear only sons. This calculated lineage solidifies the Firm's control over the monarchy and the destiny of Veridium. Amidst this intricate power structure, Cyra, a humble maid servant, becomes entangled in a dangerous game orchestrated by the Firm. With knowledge of the previous future queen's fate, Cyra finds herself in a precarious position. The Firm capitalizes on her vulnerability, striking a sinister deal. They disclose the whereabouts of her long-lost family but make it clear that any defiance will result in their harm. Driven by the overwhelming desire to be reunited with her loved ones, Cyra reluctantly agrees to comply with the Firm's demands. Thrust into the role of the future queen, Cyra becomes a pawn under the Firm's control. Her allegiance is split between her duty to report back to the Firm on Aden, the future king, and the yearning to protect her family. To ensure Aden remains unaware of her true identity, Cyra undergoes rigorous training meticulously designed by the Firm. The goal is to prevent any suspicion from falling upon her, as she walks a treacherous path of duplicity. But as Cyra immerses herself in her role, love defies the boundaries set by the Firm. Her heart leads her astray, drawing her irresistibly towards Aden, a man destined to reshape Veridium's future. Love and loyalty collide within her, as her devotion to her family's salvation battles against the longing for a forbidden connection.…

** 2020 version of the Watty 2014 Winner**'My name is Arturo Basilides. I am an orphan living in the slums of Medio City - the capital of a nation ravaged by a war which was won by extremists. Offered a choice between slavery and disenfranchisement, we exist in an underclass so disconnected we effectively inhabit a different era. Daily life involves scavenging, theft and substance abuse with a bunch of misfits who are somehow still in one piece after years of abandonment. I am a natural born fighter and although I despise warfare, I must witness the downfall of those bastard elites while fulfilling my romantic intentions with the forever unattainable girl of my dreams.'Skye City is a biopunk adventure set in a world where science is indistinguishable from magic and oppression is near-inescapable. Technology has created a newer, 'superior' form of human and genetically engineered monstrosities are as terrifying as anything encountered in your nightmares. The underclass have been underestimated and as they fight back the boundary between freedom fighter and terrorist becomes increasingly blurred. Meanwhile, the drug-induced haze of a traumatised mind places a question mark over the meaning of reality.…
