    Flitter Along
    By
    Jake Bible

    “Little boxes, little boxes…”

    The imp hummed as he skipped from house to house, his pail of oil splashing its contents here and there in an incendiary trail of destruction. The flames from the first house found that trail and began to follow the imp.

    He paused in his humming, his skipping, his destruction, and glanced over his shoulder at the approaching flames.

    “Oh, hello,” he said and waved. “Flitter along to those little boxes now. Flitter along.”

    The flames found the many trails of oil leading to the front doors of the unsuspecting homes. Oh, how those flames flittered…

    A Sweater
    by
    Jake Bible

    The Administrator frowned at the small glow worm that inched its way across the linoleum floor. The Administrator was not a fan of glow worms. Not a fan at all.

    “Must you move so slow?” the Administrator asked.

    “Moving as fast I can, sir,” the glow worm replied. “Bit slick, this floor.”

    “Per regulations it is to be polished every evening,” the Administrator said. “Perhaps you might think of wearing a sweater for better traction.”

    “Fine idea, sir,” the glow worm said. “I will do that.”

    The Administrator did not believe the glow worm would do that. Not at all.

    Call It
    By
    Jake Bible

    “Call it.”

    “Heads.”

    The coin left Nell’s thumb with a flick and a ting of thin metal. The sunlight caught the quarter just right, sending stabbing pains of bright flashes of light into the eyes of the two very hungover men. Then it hit the cracked asphalt, bounced a few times, rolled a meter to the left, spun for a second, and finally fell flat next to a hunk of discarded chewing gum.

    “Tails.”

    Allan stared at the coin. “Seriously? Dammit…”

    He took several deep breaths to keep from puking, drew his machete, and waded into the sea of undead.

    Every Page
    By
    Jake Bible

    “Sign every page?” Jack asked, staring at the two meter high stack of paperwork in front of him.

    “Every page,” Mr. Slewfoot said.

    Jack tried to smile, but his lips wouldn’t oblige.

    “The point of making a deal with you was to avoid Hell,” Jack said with a weak laugh. “This looks a lot like Hell.”

    “Oh, it is,” Mr. Slewfoot said. “You’re in hell. Paperwork signing Hell.”

    “But–.”

    “I lied. Your soul is messed up, man. Kelly Blue Book is pitiful.” Mr. Slewfoot grinned wide. “Finish this. I’ll have the next stack brought in. Try not to cramp up.”

    Solutions
    By
    Jake Bible

    The executive board sat with their eyes cast down at the chipped and faded mahogany table.

    “People,” Deemo cooed. “I wasn’t asking for much. Just solutions. But what have you given me?”

    Deemo leaned in close, his mouth a millimeter from a pale, shivering, terrified man’s ear. The man flinched, but didn’t look up.

    “Bupkis,” Deemo said, emphasizing each consonant. “Bupkis don’t work in the apocalypse, people.”

    Shick shunck!

    The blade was through the chair, the man, and back out before anyone could even react.

    “What do I want?” Deemo asked.

    “Solutions,” the executive board replied in unison.

    “Damn right…”
