Sunday Lunch
SUnday Lunch Lewis took another mouthful of his coffee, washing down the greasy-spoon meal he finished in another rest stop - his lay-by for another Sunday on the job, since he wasn't allowed to drive his big-rig on Sundays. Glancing around the...
Tail execution
The two young victims were pulled out into the middle of the town square by a pair of soldiers, forced to march towards the awaiting scaffolds. One was crying out for mercy, begging his captors to release him, while the other pulled at the soldier...
Hazy afternoon
"Been too long since we did this, dude" the young horned lizard said as he finished off the stub end of his spliff, thick smoke slowly flowing from between his lips as he sprawled on the couch, sitting on top of his discarded clothes. "Yeah... gotta...
Ivan's End
Ivan staggered out of his favorite bar - still glad to be back in one of his regular kicks, since his job kept him on the road so often. It was a rare treat to get shitfaced in a proper bar instead of knocking back a couple of 6-packs in his truck's...
Swift Revenge

Saturday Evening
It was Saturday evening and the small group of truckers of DinoShippingCorp rested their trucks for the weekend. As usual, Lewis has stolen a few six packs from his load - the occasional "heavily damaged" palettes never cause any real inquiries from...
Forest detour
Brad struggled to jog off the court and to the benches lining it. The young raptor panted hard, glad the basketball game was finally over. While not fat, he was certainly not "fit". The sweat caused his t-shirt to stick uncomfortably to his back....
The new kid on the block
"DSC Liam, need a 10-100 [denote the need to urinate]." "DSC Jayden, Liam, meet at 02 [2nd stop]?" "DSC Liam, Affirmative" "DSC Jayden, see ya. Ya piss too much." After Liam drove off the motorway, the others waited a few minutes. "DSC Jayden,...
A Quick Kill
A Quick Kill "Fuck, it's cold", the smallest of the three youths said, hugging himself and pulling his beanie back over his head as far as he could. "Y'don't fucking say, really?! Shut up already, ya wuss" "Here... got a toy", the largest of the...
