Dragon's Fire Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Fallout

The fallout from the lawsuits and the court’s decisions rippled through the town like a thunderclap, leaving residents in a state of disbelief. Initially, the community seemed paralyzed by the overwhelming revelations, the weight of the truth rendering them unable to process the gravity of what had transpired. As time passed, however, emotions began to stir, and the townspeople found themselves divided, their reactions as diverse as the patchwork of lives they led.

I make no apologies for getting my idea for this story from Tiff Q's story about the real trouble with Covid 19.

I have adapted Tiffs 'world' of 'No female Y chromosome sperm' and cast my own slant to my story. This could become a 'Universe' Tiff.

Thank you Tiff for the inspiration, Beverly.

A Short Story
By Maryanne Peters

“You owe me Bro, and I need you to do something for me”. Her words sounded ominous. It was as if I knew that afternoon, that whatever she was asking of me would have consequences – serious consequences. But I suppose that she knew I would say yes. Perhaps because I owed her, but perhaps because she was my sister.

‘What’s wrong because you look uncomfortable?’
‘It’s just that Professor Nightingdale spoke to me as if she new me. She said I looked very pretty and I should take care in the sun because of my fair skin. Do I know her?’

"Hurry up Katie, dinners ready"

I turned to look at Katie but she was nowhere to be seen!
"and give Mel a shout would you dear"

I just let out a hmmph and nodded my head unsure of what to do. Aunt left the room and went back down stairs.
"Katie dinners ready"

"I'll be 5 minutes you go down"

"What not dressed like this"

Gabe yanked the towel back around his waist. “I wish you hadn’t seen that, man,” he said. The initial shock of being seen had been replaced by frustration. He needed to finally explain … at last. The dreaded day that “might come“, had arrived.

Mal’s eyes blazed. “What the fuck? What the fuck was that?”

The Hero, The Mouse & The Cheshire Pt. 19

Christine looks down at Lache as he slept. She wore him out last night while trying a few positions out of the Kama Sutra book she picked up. All those years she had been celibate, would put a priest to shame. A shiver travels down her body, as she just stands and admires Lache’s sleeping form.

She could feel the fluids Lache deposited in her vagina sliding out and down the inside of her legs. She heads into the bathroom and does her morning routine. Today, she was working from home. The place she was working for, wanted her to create three different alien-looking masks.

Jonathan Hanscombe and Rupert Burlew had secured for themselves the two large leather armchairs by the window in the sitting room of Arthur’s in St. James. The window offered a view down the street of St. James Square (as it was then known) to the Gardens, but in the afternoon, it was the lightest area of the otherwise dark rooms of that ancient establishment.

What if you could process more information in one second than most people can in a month? For starters, in one minute you would experience more subjective time than other people experience in five years. In fifteen minutes, you’d have thought more thoughts than most people have in a lifetime, just over 81 years’ worth to be precise.

What if I told you that’s just the power of augmenting the human mind? What if instead of augmenting a human mind we used the power of a small star? In one second, that Matrioshka Brain would have more ‘thoughts’ than even an augmented human would have in 75,000 years.

At these absurd limits what isn’t possible?
