The next story I'm going to share with you guys concerns a certain cabin. Now, before I go on, I should say older cabins, those being the first ones built by the first campers were all named after characters from Disney's classic animated movie “Bambi”. One of the first cabins that was completed was named after the main character, the adorable young fawn Bambie. It is also rumored to be the most haunted and the most active with paranormal activity.

The Center: Patient Zero - Part 4

The Center: Patient Zero -Part 4
by:
Starbuck


In the language of epidemiology, patients are numbered sequentially. Once an epidemic goes public it is patient one who gets the news coverage or journal articles written about them. What is less known is that there are unrecognized patients who predate the first acknowledged case. Sometimes these people are carriers, like Typhoid Mary, but oftentimes they are merely the unsung victims who's stories are not tied into the whole until long after the papers are written. Jesse Lee was such a person, this is his story.

Story is a prequel to and is set in Lilith Langtree's 'The Center' universe.

It was a bit like that at work. Senior management were caught in a cleft stick, as the law prohibited any discrimination against me, but I tried to minimise the changes, just wearing my hair in a different way, a bra of course, and doing my best to stay out of both sets of public toilets.

I’m not sure how long I laid there just flipped out at what happened between me and Shaun. I mean it was awesome; it was great and messed up and weird with things bouncing around my head all at the same time. I mean this was Shaun who was my best friend and yeah I was really starting to like him as a girl would.

He just gave me a blow job.
It was a great blowjob.

Spacetran 3

In this chapter, Ruby the reporter and narrator of the remainder of the story appears. She meets Beverly at Beverly's instigation and learns much.


This story was originally written over thirty years ago when I was still trying to come to terms with my childhood abuse and my transgendered transvestism... I've altered a few bits very slightlt but it's essentially the same as when I first wrote it and I seem now to hold it as a sort of link to my past and a datum mark to show myself how far I've come.

I was walking around a park, the same park I used to come with my father when I was little. I went to the playground and sat down on the swing. It was a nice warm day, the skies were blue and there wasn’t a single cloud around. I was lost in thought when I heard a familiar voice that I never thought I would hear again.

Big Trouble!-4

by Lynceus

A world, much like our own, but one in which magic, miracles, and even alien life exists. Where heroes and villains alike seem to leap off the pages of our favorite comic books! But for all their power, these superbeings are no gods, but mere mortals, with problems that even the Strength of Hercules cannot easily solve.

You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of the imagination. That's the signpost up ahead; your next stop, the Retcon Universe!

The Leader narrowed its pupils, just a bit... the equivalent of a slight smile for its species. The most important of the group were already supporting the plan. The others would go along, eventually. It sat back and let them plot and scheme, only occasionally asking a question or making a suggestion. Yes, this would work well...
