It's not a bad job for someone like me, baseball I mean. The running, clubbing a ball with a stick, it's freeing in one sense. In another, it's trapping. You're basically stuck doing it. It does have its moments though, like when my secret and a lot of others secrets were nearly exposed. Hm? Oh, you want to hear it? Alright then, but you have to promise me you won't tell anyone at all, not even your grandma when she gives you that say it or I'll give you the look face.
It was in the middle of one of the biggest finals of minor league history. The sun was going down, we were seven home, they were five home and it was the final inning. Steve went up to bat, twirling the bat as he went. The Pitcher smiled as he tossed a screwball to Steve.
"Strrrriiiiiike one!" The Referee yelled. Steve spat into the gravel and gave the bat another twirl. The pitcher merely shook his head and tossed a splitter. Steve swung low and the ball soared high into the air and out of the park.
"Foul Ball!" The Ref yelled. I growled in frustration.
"Are you blind you idiot?!" Jeff screeched. The Ref ignored Jeff's outburst and continued to observe the field. Steve flipped a coin and smiled when it landed in his palm. The Pitcher sent a flaming fastball to Steve. He merely grunted and moved out of the way.
"You're out!" The ref shouted. Steve walked off and tagged me on my shoulder.
"Great, my turn." I mumbled. I grabbed my bat off of the rack and walked nervously onto the pitch. I lifted the bat over my shoulder and the Pitcher tossed a splitter my way.
"Strike one!" The Ref shouted. I clenched my fist as I saw the sun slowly stalk down the skyline. The Pitcher sent a fastball hurtling towards me. I swung a little early and missed it.
"Strike two!" The Ref yelled. The Pitcher fired off a screwball. Just my luck. I smiled and swung the wooden bat, hammering the ball out of the park.
"HOOOOOOOOME RUUUUUUUUUUUUN!" The Ref yelled. Everyone cheered as we were ushered to the centre of the pitch. I was lifted high in the air by my team mates. I protested but they wouldn't really listen. I guess being the guy who won the game get's you a lot of attention. And right now, that was the last thing I needed. The sunlight faded from the skyline and was replaced by the moon. I threw my head back and howled. My teammates were a little shocked but quickly dropped me, remembering my secret.
One of the greatest nights of my life had to be ruined by my damn secret. Luckily, the manger had convinced the media and board that it was just a fake joke. But only an idiot believes the official story. I still get asked today if it was a joke or it was real.
And that's the story of me nearly exposing every single werewolf, vampire and nearly everyone else with secrets like mine.

Everyone said my girl Mary Poppins was Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
And I guess that’s why I’m SuperCaliSwagalisticSexyHellaDopeness
I was told to look like a BEAUTY but play like a BEAST. Think in my head and stay
quick on my feet. I had to trust Aladdin, we stayed one jump ahead, And then I went to
sleep Peter Pan was in my head.
The parks come alive at night, everything is not what it
seems, Cinderella walked on broken Glass, and Rapunzel needed a new dream. If you
don’t know where you’re going, it doesn’t matter what path you take. Just don’t run away

Untitled Story
I lay in the river of tears I had cried over the battle, drifting downstream. I feel the current pulling, but it does not register. I feel the whole world I built around me - the ropes and cords and odd-things that tied me to the shore - slowly, but surely unravelling, letting go. All that is left after some time is the sword that cut them, its sheath and the belt succuring the sheath to me. But something went wrong as the last rope was cut - the sheath fell away and the sword pierced through my heart. The belt reminded me that I had something left of my old self, something to save me as the whole world came crashing down around

There is nothing that I can whisper
There is nothing that you can hear
There is nothing that I can say
There is nothing that you can hear
There is nothing that I can shout
There is nothing that you can hear
There is nothing that I can scream
There is nothing that you can hear
There is nothing that I can touch
There is nothing that you can feel
There is nothing that I can light
There is nothing that you can see
There is nothing that I can harvest
There is nothing that you can taste
There is nothing
There is
That
there is
us
and nothingness

Just a contest I'd thought I'd try out for. It's "worst time to transform into a werewolf"

That would ruin that golden moment of being the MVP. Good luck in the contest
