Prompt: Nightmare

"I’m not a vampire," Vincent thought to himself. It wasn’t the first time he’d been called that. Strangers, like the two at the table behind him, often made assumptions about his appearance.

Vincent stood up from the bar and approached them. Their expressions were filled with surprise and guilt.

"You are mistaken," he said, then he turned back to reclaim his seat at the bar.

Suddenly, he saw something that made his mind and heart race with fear. In the mirror behind the bar, he cast no reflection. He covered his mouth with his hand to muffle his inevitable scream.

Stay

Title: Stay

Word Count: 100
Prompt: 2 a.m.

Just after closing time, he found Tifa sound asleep at the bar, her head resting on folded arms.

"C'mon, let's get you to bed," Cloud said, gently lifting her.

He cradled Tifa in his arms and carried her upstairs, carefully placing her on her bed, and tucking her in. On his way out, he paused as he heard her speak.

"I wish you'd stay," she said, "but, only if you want to." She pulled her blankets back, offering him warmth and companionship. Two things he wouldn't refuse.

"Alright," he said, not wanting to be alone. "It's cold in my room, anyway."

Title: From the Darkness
Characters: Jenova
Team: TURKS
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Prompt: Home

The creature is a consuming blackness, inconceivable to even the most scientific minds. Void of compassion and thought, it floats undetected through the cosmos with one instinctual purpose in mind: destruction.

A brilliant comet falls victim to the oppressive, enveloping darkness. All that remains, is a desolate piece of space debris, still continuing on the path destiny has set in motion.

Only now, it harbors a tiny life-form more resilient than any the cognizant universe has ever seen. Safely tucked away, the alien rides its vessel, patiently waiting to be carried to a new home: a planet worthy of annihilation.

Title: Retrospect
Characters: Reno, Rude
Team: TURKS
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Prompt: Photograph

In retrospect, it probably wasn’t the best thing he could have said to the old man. After spending over three hours following their quarry around town, Reno had been eager to get the job over with. The guy hadn't looked like a threat, standing there, head bowed, eyes reverently staring at a time-worn photograph that had clearly seen better days.

“It is, in fact, my mother,” he said, glancing up from the photo, before letting it drift to the floor.

The sound of Rude's gun being cocked made Reno pause, but only for a moment.

"Do it," Reno said.
