Skate-O-Rama!
The steady thump of the bass still pounded in his head as Nick ripped out of the parking lot. The bumper of his car scrapped across the ground as he sped onto the unlit road. His fingers rapidly tapped against the steering wheel as he glanced in the rearview mirror for headlights.

An Owl In The Road
Honestly, I hate driving to my family's house. For some reason or another I still push myself to do it every other week. Why, though? Why do I continue to push myself to go? Again, I drive down this long, entangled path that seems to go on for hours. For what reason?

She’s The Owl
A beautiful woman is dangerous, everything about her can tie you up and take you out from the moment you see her. That was the case for old Angie Jean, a woman who stood 5ft but looked 6’3. This woman’s beauty was so vibrant her body came second. Skin like smooth silk, brown eyes the color of mahogany wood, lips plump and thick and red as ever, but her hair long blonde beautiful just like her Mother. Besides her looks Angie was a cold stone killer. It would be nice to tell a story of a woman vigilante, but this is not the case. This woman killed and she killed for fun. From town to town she pack up her things and killed every cowboy in sight. No one knew or understood why she would take those men out, no one knew her back story or where she had come from, but rest assured no one bothered Miss Angie Jean.

The Ever-Echoing Tragedy of Mr. Ahab Croesus
Mr. Ahab Croesus had accounted for all enemies but one. “Money,” says the Scripture, “is a defense,” and Mr. Croesus had plenty of it – he had inherited both his father's money and his father's ruthless genius of increasing it. He was a multinational billionaire who had among his many dreams the goal of pushing Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk right off the road in the race to be the world's first trillionaire.

Operation Defiance
He parked a block in a half from his flat near a park so as to be discrete. He was in a company car, a black Mercedes G-class SUV with diplomat plates which blended in fine in Langley or D.C., but here in Glen Echo he had misled his neighbors into believing he was in medical sales. He hurriedly walked under an amber street lamp clutching a patent leather suitcase tightly heading towards his unremarkable suburban home which also functioned as a safe house and interrogation site, unofficially and unsanctioned by the CIA. He himself had recently undergone fingerprint removal and had his identity and complete personal history erased permanently. He was officially a John Doe, though he carried a false identity with the highest diplomatic security credential’s as well as a dozen others he could use for greater discretion on assignment. Although, his assignments came from the highest places in world leadership his acceptance and methods for achievement of their goals was left to his own judgement. He was chosen for this placement not due to his unerring willingness to follow orders, but his total unwavering integrity to his personal moral code and his incredible ability to carry out absolutely any operative he deemed necessary. John was trusted and respected by all he dealt with which was an incredibly small number that new his role and authority. John was shielded from many corruptions that were still to thoroughly enmeshed in the political powers to unleash his seemingly divine will upon them without chaos. The true powers that be over the world strive to create and maintain order while gradually uprooting evil and never allow rogue agents of chaos to lose control and reign down vigilante justice without immense behind the scenes planning. They had long ago learned the level of set backs that could occur for humanity in that type of power vacuum.
