Scythe
We have finally reached Immortality along with a Governmental Utopia. Everything is perfect and when someone gets deathly hurt they are just sent off to a recovery center to heal and be fine within a few days. But what about the population problem? If everyone is immortal then the world would be overpopulated in no time. In come the Scythes, these are humans who's job is to kill a certain amount of people each month. They have specific rules to follow but some see these as minor guidelines.
The Grip Of It
James and Julie are ready to take their marriage to the next level and buy their first home. The newpaper ad sounded too good to be true and the home itself had more than what they desired. They bought it, fell in love with it, and continued on with their lives.
The home moans, chants, creaks, and fills their ears with unknown sounds. There is an ever-growing mold spot in the basment that seems to be changing its shape each day. One day they find the same design upon Julie's skin as a deep and nasty bruise. They find their minds collapsing and unable to interpret spacial realities.
