Hostile Takeover
“Alright…” Eric mutters to himself, patting the chalk off his sleeve as five small candles dances on the ground. Looking at an open tome, he glances between an ancient diagram on a wrinkled sheet and the rough pentagram on his basement floor. Satisfied with his work, he begins to chant, “surge, amator et interfector hominum” as the chalk lines start to glow blue. After a few minutes, a cold breeze fills the room, blowing the candles out...
Motherly Instincts
Hearing the doorbell ring, Oliver walks to it and opens the door to an Asian woman cradling a baby in her arms. With a wide smile, she carefully hands the sleeping baby over to Oliver and places a bag filled with toys and milk powder onto the floor. “Thanks so much for agreeing to look after our baby Kev during our wedding anniversary” she whispers to Oliver.“No problem, Mrs. Chan” Oliver replies with a grin, ecstatic to be considered res...
Stereotyped
“What?” Somi hisses, looking up from her phone to see two boys giggling and whispering to each other on the other side of the room. Rolling her eyes in annoyance, she tries to get comfortable on the leather couch as an unfamiliar smell wafts past her nose. It has been a week since Somi and her mother moved into her new stepfather’s house, and she is still struggling to get used to her new family. Her stepbrother David only made things worse...
Mile High Club: Air China
With a sigh you look at your dying phone, only realizing that less than two hours has elapsed on your flight to Shanghai. The jumble of ineligible Chinese characters on the in-flight entertainment system and magazines does little to keep you engaged. Cursing under your breath, you cringe at your forgetfulness to charge your phone before the long flight as your screen switches off, taunting you. “Fuck…’ you mutter to yourself, desperately lo...
Wrong Guy
“Boss… boss… he’s waking up” a voice raspy voice whispers from a distance as you lift your throbbing head up. You try to look around, but quickly realise that the sack over your head does little to improve your orientation as you taste a dirty rag in your mouth keeping you from screaming. Starting to panic, you struggle to stand up as footstep rush towards you, pulling the cloth away from your head as you squint in the bright light.“W...
In Control
“Ah, he’s just a friend of mine I met back in high school” Kevin says, checking his phone for the address he and Alex were looking for. Taking a sharp left before jogging across a congested road, the two find themselves looking up at a newly renovated apartment complex with a spacious reception on the ground floor.“Holy shit… your friend is loaded” Alex mutters as they step into the foyer. A receptionist with long blonde hair and mass...
Curse of greed
A cool breeze ruffles Nick’s hair as he and his partner Chang quietly shuffle through the coarse dry sand under their leather boots. Taking out a small flashlight, Nick scans a crumpled paper in his hand and looks up at the towering silhouette of the Sphinx under the full moon. Furrowing his brows in concentration, Nick begins to walk along the base of the Sphinx before stopping abruptly at the back of its head. “Here…” Nick whispers to C...
Karma
“Alright, Jenny’s here” Dan excitedly whispers through your phone as your heart begins to beat faster. “She’s in room six with her friends” he continues while you unzip your bag to reveal a small tablet wrapped in tissues. Booking an entire karaoke room for yourself raised a few eyebrows at the front desk, but it was pivotal for the plan to work seamlessly as you lie down onto the leather couch. “You know what to do right?” he ask...
Cursed mirror
With the afternoon sun peering through your bedroom window, you lean back onto your chair exhausted and demoralized. Clicking between the multiple tabs on your browser, you hit refresh in hopes of a notification of some sort as you scroll through the archives of Japanese artifacts once more. Logging into e-bay, you enter keywords onto the search bar and nonchalantly flick through listings until an image captures your eyes. A rather corroded small...
Keeping fit
“Shit… I can’t do this” Nick groans, trying to catch his breath as beads of sweat rolls down his forehead while his soaked shirt clings to his back. Stumbling towards the closest park bench, he grabs a water bottle from his pouch and empties it down his throat in a few gulps as his friend Chris watches on jogging on the spot. “It’s February already… there’s no improvement” Nick grumbles, recalling the new year’s resolution he ...
Weekend fun
Walking home in the evening under the fading sunlight with music playing in your ears was always your favorite activity on the weekends. The mundane weekday job and errands barely keep you awake to enjoy evening activities with your friends. Your little bubble small world bursts as you watch two teenage boys dash out of a store with the storekeeper hot on their heels, barely running into you as you attempt to dart away. The storekeeper suddenly f...
Body suit
“That’s it?” you laugh, eyeing a small briefcase on the bed as your friend Jeff closes the hotel door behind you. You and Jeff booked a hotel room for the night to spend some time together and have fun over some boardgames… which was a lie you told your parents. With a grin, Jeff dramatically moves to the black briefcase before drumming it in front of you.“Straight from my dad’s laboratory” Jeff says proudly ignoring the fact that h...
Asian Virus
With a sigh, Finn sits back into his friend’s gaming chair as he nonchalantly clicks through Youtube videos waiting for his friend to return from the bathroom. Getting invited to his friend’s place to play some games and relax was a good way to spend his weekend. Minimizing the browser, Finn sees a file named “Japanese games” on the corner; curious to know his friend’s taste in games, he decides to open the folder only to be blasted by ...
Asian Swap

Flipping open your notebook, you find all the translations and hints your friend left you with clear directions on how to use the spell.You continue to read the notes, real...
Working out
The faint sound of metal clanking echoes in the room as the bass heavy music fills the silence. Placing his bag down onto the floor, Aaron looks around the rather small gym with a hint of disappointment. Moving over to South Korea to earn extra credits for college wasn’t his first preference, but when every other alternative failed, he found himself booking a semester overseas and saying goodbye to his friends and family. Upon arrival, he soon ...
Substitute Teacher
Light snickering emanates from the back of the classroom as the teacher turns her back to the class to write her name on the white board. “Ms. Tanaka” she writes in bold red before turning back to face the class with a hint of annoyance. “As you are aware, I’m the substitute teacher for Mr. Smith who is currently sic---" she says, before a wolf whistle interrupts her. Eyes darting back and forth between the students, she tries to pinp...
Chinese New Year
“Come on! We’re already ten minutes late” Sara shouts from the other side of the house. Max sighs with frustration as he carefully slides his laptop into his bag and places his headphones into the compartment on the side. Looking at his phone, he sees his friend message him once more bragging about the new game they are about to play.“I said I’m not going sis. Who cares about Chinese New Year…” Max grumbles, swinging his backpack ov...
Chinese Tea
“Are you sure about this place?” Jenny, your girlfriend asks, looking up at the rusting gate and crumbling concrete of a rather large two-story house. The crows cawing in the garden does little to soothe your uneasiness of entering a stranger’s property. Checking your phone for the address once again, you give a sigh of discomfort after confirming that you are indeed standing in front of the correct house.“Don’t worry babe, he seems nic...
Asian spell
“Are you ready for round two?” Alex laughs excitedly as he pulls a heavy leather bounded book off his grandfather’s shelf. Carefully flicking through the fragile dusty pages, Alex stops at a familiar diagram and gives you a wide grin. “Now that we know that it works, we should add some extra spells” he says, slowly translating the paragraphs of Latin transcript on the next page. You give him a slight look of concern, but you trust that ...
Company event
“Thanks for driving me to the venue man” Jake says, grabbing his ticket from the seat behind. Looking out the window, he sees couples hand in hand walking up the grand staircase to the company event. With a sigh, he opens the door and waves Patrick goodbye before walking towards the hallway alone.Shaking his head in pity, Patrick watches Jake walk up the stairs before driving off back home. Since Jake’s recent break-up, he hasn’t been the...
Cosplayer
Lying in bed, Max nonchalantly scrolls through Instagram, looking at the posts his friends uploaded during the day, clearly more active than himself. Halfway through, he sees an image of a cosplayer happily posing in front of the camera revealing her cleavage and ass cheeks. Intrigued, he clicks her profile to have a better look and the Instagram algorithm kicks in, suggesting other cosplayers for Max to see. Spending an hour scrolling through im...
Cursed
“Dude… that movie was amazing!” Dan laughs as he turns the car towards the highway, smiling to himself as he recalls his favorite scene. After spending the afternoon at the cinema with his friend Harry, the two head back home to have dinner and continue gaming throughout the night.“The ending was so unexpected” Harry interjects, winding down the window as the car picks up speed before entering the highway. With a sigh of relief, Dan con...
Helping Hand
With the morning rays illuminating the back of Jake’s head, he impatiently taps his foot on the new tiles of his local café. After noticing the store opening a few days ago, he decided to try it out before catching the train to work. Looking over the shoulders of a few customers in line, he sees a barista fumbling with a stack of take-away cups, clearly flustered from the long queue. Realizing that he has already invested a fair amount of time...
Naughty or Nice
“Hmm… these children are so inappropriate…” Santa sighs, looking through his scroll of naughty and nice kids. Tapping a few rows, he shakes his head at the wishes the kids wished for. “What does James and Andrew want with bondage ropes and gags?” he mutters to himself as Mrs. Claus walks into his room.“The naughty kids wishing for bad things again?” Mrs. Claus chuckles, seeing her husband deep in thought. “I guess we’ll stock ...
Scientific Trials
Soaking wet, Kris stands outside a rather ominous iron gate waiting for the receptionist to take him out of the storm. Flicking his blond hair back, he straightens his jacket as the gate slowly opens with a deafening screech. Looking up at the building, Kris slightly regrets his decision of walking into an isolated building deep in the woods without telling anyone.“Ah, you must be Kris, following your call this morning. Are you here to particip...
Christmas connection
“We’re running on a tight schedule! Be safe out there! Did you remember to bring the reality changing orbs in case you get spotted?” Mrs. Claus asks, patting Rudolf on the nose. In the dim light, she watches her husband carefully climb into his sleigh with a mountain of presents piled behind.“Yes dear, hopefully I won’t need to use them this year” Santa smiles, patting his pocket and hearing the faint jingle of the ceramic balls fille...
Hospital drama
With the morning rays peeking through the hilltop, a car abruptly stops in the middle of a rather empty hospital carpark. Stepping out, four partially nude girls curiously look around before walking to the side entrance of the hospital with their wide hips swaying left and right. Noticing the door unlocked, the group sneak inside, quietly giggling to each other while exploring the immediate vicinity. Spying through a narrow window on a door, they...
Volleying Blunder
“Dude… are you sure about this?” Jack whispers, hearing his voice echo in the girls’ locker room.His friend and co-conspirator does not verbally reply, instead ruffling through his pockets and pulling out two pink pills, handing one out to Jack. Looking around to make sure they are alone after skipping class per their plan the night before, Jack makes sure to lock the door before beginning the next phase.“Yeah… absolutely… Don’t y...
Camping
Sticky with sweat from five hours of hiking with a massive backpack under the scorching sun, you drop your bag onto the ground. Wiping the sweat off your brow, you look at Marcus, your childhood friend who organized the three-day camping trip. “I think the sun will set soon. We should prepare for the night” you pant, trying to catch your breath as you take another swig of water from your flask.“Alright, I’ll set up the tents while you loo...
Merging remote
On a warm afternoon, you and your friend Max huddle over a small metallic remote control flashing with words and diagrams. With your parents away for a month on a holiday, you decided to invite Max over to try out the new remote you bought online.“Jeez… you really bought the new version huh?” Max mummers, scrolling through the options available on the remote. He raises an eyebrow as a new configuration appears on the screen with two empty b...
