“You have some weird ass dreams, kid,” said Lucas. “This is one of the freakiest looking places I’ve ever seen. It kind of gives me the willies just looking at it.”
“Not me,” said Joshua. “I kind of like it, like it’s calling to me or something.”
“Would you look at that!” said Lucas. “I never seen or heard of anything like this. It doesn’t even look like it should be here.”
“I can’t believe this,” said Joshua. “ I think I’ve seen this in a dream.

“Where did that come from?” said Joshua. “That wasn’t there before!”
“Maybe it’s one of those mirages?” said Lucas
“Mirages are things you see that aren’t there,” said Joshua. “This is something that was there, we didn’t see.”
“You trying to get smart with me again, boy?” asked Lucas.
“No,” said Joshua.
“Okay, then,” said Lucas. “Looks like there’s a way in over there. Let’s go check it out; see if ...

“Shut the fuck up!” shouted Lucas.
“What would happen if I just up and walked away right now? With your hands cuffed you can’t even get up. How long do you think you’d last? A day? Maybe two? Slowly roasting away on the sand, choked by thirst?”
A moment of silence passed before Lucas shouted, “Answer me! Answer me, boy!”
“I… I don’t know,” said Joshua.
“You don’t know?” said Lucas. “Do you want to find out? Do yo...

Suddenly Lucas dropped behind and kicked Joshua square in the back sending him flying onto the ground. Without his hands to break his fall, Joshua did a face plant right into the sand!
“What the fuck!” shouted Joshua.

And Joshua and Lucas walked…
And they walked and they walked and they walked.
The car had long since disappeared behind them and the clump of green in front of them just didn’t seem to get any closer.
“This is stupid,” said Joshua, finally. “We have no idea where we are. We have no idea where we’re going. It’s got to be a million degrees out here. We are going to die!”
“Getting to that bit of green is our only hope,” s...

“I didn’t kidnap anyone. He’s my brother,” said Joshua. “I had every right to take him.”
“The state of Nevada don’t agree with you, kid,” said Lucas. “You’re 18. You should have tried to get legal custody.”
“That’d take months, “said Joshua, “months my little brother would have to live with that perv. Besides, I don’t make enough at my job to get custody. I had to take him.”

“Damned if I know. Satellite navigation's out too. It was supposed to be a short cut but it sure looks like the ass end of nowhere. Doubt anyone’ll come by this side of Christmas. Better start walking.”
“Are you kidding me?” said Joshua. “Walking where?”
Suddenly the car door flew open as Lucas grabbed Joshua, roughly pulled him out and brutally twisted his arms behind him.
“Hey, man, what are you doing?” cried Joshua.

“Well, I can’t figure out what wrong with it,” called Lucas, the shit bag bounty hunter. “But one thing’s for sure, we’re not going anywhere.”
Joshua hadn’t been looking forward to being turned over to the Nevada authorities, but at this moment, the prospect seemed a lot better than dying of thirst in the middle of a desert.
“Why don’t you just call triple A or something?” asked Joshua.
“No service,” came the reply.

Bad luck.
All Joshua had was bad luck.
Bad luck when his parents had died.
Bad luck when his little brother, Matt, had been sent to a foster home.
Bad luck when the foster dad turned out to be a raging pedo.
Bad luck that when he tried to get Matt away from him, they got caught by this shit bag bounty hunter.
And now here he was, broken down in the middle of nowhere.
Bad luck.

Hi everyone!
I really wanted to wait and publish this story all at once, but it's taking me so long to do, I decided to publish it in parts.
Please don't hesitate to chime in and let me know if you'd rather wait and get the whole story or if you'd rather get it in parts as I complete them.
And don't worry, I haven't given up on the Adonis Sequence. That's more of a long term project, with a much longer, much slower moving story.
Anyway, without further ado, please enjo...

I had another class and then the next stop was the Adonis Sequence program. Did they have a lot to answer for!
As soon as I walked in, Ron dropped what he was doing and stood up. “Those changes are coming fast,” he said.
“But this is the worst of it,” I said. “It’s going to stop now, right?”
“Stop?” said Ron. “David, my friend, it is just getting started.”
Great.

I decided to save time and just meet Coley at the canteen again. I was just too hungry to think straight, so the library was just not an option.
“So, Gibbons called on you, like every time!” grinned Coley. “I think you might be her new favorite.”
“I doubt that,” I said. “When I talked to her after class, she did not even know who I was. All semester I’ve been sitting in her class, front and center and raising my hand every time she asked a questi...

I didn’t have time to completely unpack before I had rush off to make it to my first class. If I thought the weirdness was over, I was wrong!
I took my usual seat in the front row right next to Coley. But all through her lecture, professor Gibbons just kept staring at me. I still raised my hand whenever she asked a question – just like always. But this time, instead of ignoring me, like usual, she picked me every time. Finally, a chance to show her I’d bee...

“Worse?” said the dude.
“Glasses and everything,” said Grant.
“Excuse me,” I said, “I’m standing right here.”
“That’s pretty obvious,” said the other dude. “This is what I got up early for?”
Grant just shrugged.
“I gotta peace,” the other dude said, pulling on his pants which appeared to have been unceremoniously dumped on the floor. “See you next time,” he said winking at Grant and buttoning up his shirt. Th...

My OCD was on high alert, due to my unbuttoned shirt and lack of glasses. But that didn’t stop me from putting away a huge breakfast. Afterall, I was moving out, wasn’t I? I needed to use up all the food I had in the fridge, didn’t I? And I did. And I was still hungry afterwards. Increased appetite was definitely in the Adonis Sequence brochure, but this was getting ridiculous.
I loaded my stuff into my car and said good bye to Mrs. Olsen, the woman ...

As I showered, I began to notice other changes. My hair seemed longer. I'd just had it cut and now it looked like I'd need to do it again. But, that was the least of it. I thought I might be bigger. Not a lot, but you know…bigger. My shoulders seemed a little bit heavier, my chest was a little thicker, my back a little broader. Not enough that I thought anyone but me would notice. In fact, I wasn’t even sure it was real. I knew all about the power of suggestion. M...

When I woke up the next morning, the first thought I had was, “I am starving!” I reached for my glasses but when I put them on, the world was still a blur. My prescription couldn’t have changed already! I just got these. I pulled them off to look at them, make sure they were the right glasses, and the world came into sharp focus.
That shouldn’t be.

A quick stop at the canteen, for another hamburger or two… okay, three. I was hungry. Then it was the long ride back to town.
I could feel myself starting to get drowsy. Who could blame me after the day I had, not to mention all that food. So, I did what I usually did to stay awake, I called Sadie.
“Hey you,” I said when she answered.
“David,” she greeted me matter-of-factly. “Driving home?”

“This is going to be so lit! It’ll be just like having a brother!” He took a step toward me with his arms out for a hug. I tried to step back, but I wasn’t quick enough. Before I knew what happened, he’d engulfed me in a giant bear hug, lifting me right off the ground! Oh my God, I was being hugged by a naked, muscle bound, pretty boy… Holy crap!

I stood there frozen, staring with shock and disbelief at my new roommate. Male beauty? No denying that. He was like a Greek god, huge rock-like biceps, sculpted, striated pecs, eight boulder-like abs, bulging out of his stomach and hung like a horse! I opened my mouth to speak, but all that came out was. “You’re naked!”
“Oh hell, yeah!” he laughed, leaping up from his bed, his over-long member swinging with the momentum.
Damn, he was tall. Had to be 6...

Room 7 was easy enough to find. I paused for a second outside, steeling myself for whatever horror waited within.
Then I knocked.
A deep voice called, “It’s always open.”
“Well, that’s the first thing we’re going to change,” I thought as I pushed the door open.
I was gob smacked. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t this.

Coley had an evening lecture, and it was time for me to check out my new room. I made my way over to Royce Hall. And as I looked over my paperwork, I noticed it mentioned I was on the first floor, but it failed to mention the room number. Ron was probably already gone for the day, but I figured the RA would know what room I was in. I knocked on his door and when it opened, I found a bleary-eyed guy looking back at me.
“Yeah?” he said.

So, we gathered up our stuff and made our way across the quad to the canteen. We got seated right away, but it took the server 20 full minutes before she came by to take our order. I swear my digestive acids were about to start dissolving my stomach. I was so hungry it actually hurt.

Finally, when we were done, Ron led me into the next room where there was an examination chair and a rather innocuous looking IV bag.

“Yup,” he said. “We just hook you up to the IV and you lie here for the next half hour.”
“Half hour?” I said. “Can’t we do it in 20 minutes?”

Building 12, building 12, which one was building 12? There it was! Biggerson College had the most confusing layout of any facility I’d ever been to. Why couldn’t they just put the buildings in numerical order? 10, 11, 12, what was so difficult about that? Why was building 12 right next to building 37? It made no sense whatsoever! 2019-02-28 12:34:14 +0000 UTC View Post
Andre looked down at the soldier lying on the floor and smirked. Then he pulled off his sweatshirt and took a moment to check himself out. He patted down his big, striated pecs. “Solid,” he said. Then he flexed both his giant biceps, turning his head from side to side to get a good look at the bulging, veiny masses of muscle. He grinned. “Fuck yeah!”
Then he planted one foot square on the chest of the solider and said, “Get up. Go on, try and get up. Try it.”
