30 Years For Revenge




Reincarnation is real.

I know because I was born with some memories from my past life; a life which was ended by a close friend. I can still see the murderous glint in his eyes as he drove the blade into my chest over and over again.

My parents took me to a psychiatrist when I was young and I would discuss the things that I remembered; they thought I was crazy. As I got older, I thought it best to keep quiet about it.

It’s taken me 30 years to track down my killer; a man by the name Ronald Goater. I knock on his door and when he opens it, I flash him my police badge and state that I need to ask him a few questions. He invites me in and we take a seat in the living room.

“Did you used to know a man named Joseph Collins?” I ask and I immediately notice his eyes widen.

“Yes,” he answers in a shaky voice.

“I know you killed him, Mr Goater.” I cross the room to him and remove my gun from the holster. “I know because I was him. I was reincarnated; given a chance to exact my revenge.”

His wide-eyes stare into mine.

“Those eyes; it is you!” He stands, suddenly more confident. “You bastard! You killed my wife!”

I look at him, dumbstruck. He throws a punch too quick for me to react and I stumble back, falling to the floor. My gun flies from my grasp and lands before him. He picks up the weapon and stands over me, smiling.

“I’m going to enjoy killing you again.”

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan...

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out, ...
