The Tape
During the misty day of a warm summer morning in 1954, March 27th, in a vacant town 15 miles away from Greensville, Tennessee, the scorched body of a 25-year-old women was found inside a kitchen stove of a small farm house with 15 acres of land. The 25-year-old lady had thick, black hair that flowed like a wave in the wind. Her eyes were as hazel as a brown-green leaf in the fall. A video camera was found on a table looking at the oven. Unfortunately, the tape was gone at the time.

Lovely Little Liar
The cold world slept, unaware of the nightmare that was among them. Only fools and the desperate dared the frigid night. It was the worst blizzard in the history of the city. Howling winds, snow piled against doorways, cars buried beneath a mountain of the frosty death, and best of all, the perfect night for a murder.

Descending Trilogy: Descending Into Darkness
You woke up to the sound of your alarm clock going off and you slammed your hand on the snooze button. You yawned and looked at the clock and saw that it was 8:30 in the morning. Realizing you were late for work, you stumbled out of bed and scrambled onto your feet as you went for your dresser. As you were putting your leg into your pants, you struck your knee on the dresser. You cursed as you hopped on one leg, clutching your knee while wincing in pain. As you struggled to put your other leg into your pants, you were brushing your teeth furiously with the toothbrush you didn't bother to put back in the bathroom with the remaining toothpaste that was on the brush. You stopped brushing for a moment just to pull your pants up with both hands. When you pulled your pants up, you quickly put your socks and shoes on and ran out of the bedroom. You finished brushing your teeth and quickly rinsed your mouth in the kitchen. Knowing you didn't have enough time to fix yourself anything to eat, you grabbed a couple of Pop-tarts from a box and ran out the door. You went to get in your car but the doors were locked and you dug your hands into your pocket to take out the keys, only to realize you left your keys back inside. You swore under your breath and you went back inside, grabbed your keys, and went back out. You got in the car and drove to work. You went to look at your watch, only to realize you left that back home. You slapped the steering wheel in frustration before you arrived at work. After arriving, you quickly walked inside, looked at the clock in the lobby, and saw that it was 8:45. You went for the elevator and you saw that your boss was standing there, glaring at you. You walked into the elevator and stood next to him as the two of you were heading up.

Left Alone
Greg, a young man in his mid-twenties, runs breathlessly through the fresh snow that blankets the alley. When he is sure that the assailant that was pursuing him had given up, he pauses and takes deep, ragged breaths as he tries to regain his composer. Through the heaviness of his breathing, he hears the crunch of snow between the assailant’s footsteps. He doesn’t bother to look in the direction of the sound. Instead, he continues to run further into the darkening alley. Suddenly, everything goes black.

Vultures
Vultures are the most romantic animals on the planet. Vultures mate for life. They find a fellow guy vulture or a fellow girl vulture and fall in love and have kid vultures together.
