  1. “The #shallows, by the point, are cursed,” the postman said. “In the old days, they sacrificed women to keep the kami happy. Once they built the lighthouse, it wasn’t needed. They say you can hear a woman singing on the rock there at night. Once you hear her, you’re not the same anymore.” He shook his head sadly

    I, the new keeper, replied, “Shouldn’t be a problem. It didn’t bother the last keeper. He worked there 50 years”

    “Well you see, he was deaf as a doornail.”

    Harriah rocked back and forth, feeling every scrape of the bars as the AI rattled its cage.

    "This is my life now."

    Julia crept through the dark corridors of the exploration starship, desperate to avoid the infected and insane crew members. She was the only one left; the alien pathogen was impossible to contain now. Julia checked the O2 tank for her face mask, only a half our left. The ship was on auto pilot back to Earth. If she couldn’t find a way to stop it the whole planet would be infected.
