Tales of humour, whimsy and courgettes
Doris, 84, shocked to death by an electric blanket. She’d come in with black marks and burns across her face and body. Presumably, day shift had made her passingly presentable.
She didn’t notice the blood under the counter. Or the grin forming on Doris’ face.
She noticed a rustle when Doris sat up, but by then it was too late.

Reala slid Hydra and Yuffie a drink. “Welcome back Hydra.”
“Cheers,” replied Hydra, sipping his lemonade.
“Listen,” said Reala. “You’re sitting on that stool, and the cushion’s compressed under your weight right?”
“Yes,” pondered Hydra.
“So you exist, in a substantial physical form, taking up space around you, atomically,” continued Reala.
“I guess,” replied Hydra. “What does that mean?”
Reala leaned in. “You matter.”
Yeah. A hopeful pun to end Hydras search. Seeking Hydra is free for just one more day!

“What’s up there?” asked Hydra. “At the end of the road.”
“I’m not sure,” replied Yuffie. “We’ve never seen a god, but it’s possible one or many exist.”
“Do we go there as well?” asked Hydra.
“Eventually,” replied Yuffie. “Everyone dies.”
“I hope there’s sorbet,” pondered Hydra.
“That’s heaven is it?” asked Yuffie. “A place filled with ice cream?”
“Yeah,” replied Hydra. “That and all of the dogs that you’ve ever loved licking you awake every morning.”

“I took you with me,” continued Yuffie. “Imprinted your image on the minds of a vast number of artists, creatives, dreamers and children in the living world. You grew to your current size. A giant idea, thought and memory. A part of the little girl that continues to survive.”
“What was I to the girl?” asked Hydra. “A dream? A toy? Hope or fear?”
“I don’t know,” replied Yuffie. “I just wanted something of her to live on after her death.”
“You’ve always taught me everything needs to end,” said Hydra. “Life, journeys, fame, books, love and the careers of politicians.”
“I know,” said Yuffie. “I’m sorry Hydra.”

“I saw a young girl walking up the road to the afterlife with you in tow,” said Yuffie. “Usually, when humans die, a whole procession of us walk behind them. We linger here for a while before being forgotten and moving on. With the young girl, there was only you.”
Hydra furrowed his brows. “What else usually follows humans to the world in-between?”
“Everything they ever dreamed of, everything they hoped for, everything they remembered and did in their entire lives,” replied Yuffie. “Also, the tax-man and Facebook updates…”

Fancy a synopsis?
If anything is going to save the Little Fears from awful punch lines, it is not Hydra having an existential crisis. In Seeking Hydra, Great British groaners are the order of the day as the assembled Little Fears make their way through 90 tales of lemon trees, kinky behaviour, confused doors and mystical road hogs. Boxers seek a joke; Beat finds his pop; Sprite sees a Russian president; Lucy shoots a clay pigeon; Emu’s tossed out of a club. Written and posted with scruffy illustrations daily on LittleFears.co.uk, these brief vignettes (50 to 100 words) chronicle the continuing adventures of the Little Fears. With only a sense of whimsy and a deep love of old British comedy, Seeking Hydra will make you groan, cry and laugh until a bit of wee comes out, in a truly original, unoriginal, work of art and fiction.
Cheers everyone! Hope you enjoy!

“Hello Hydra,” said Yuffie. “I’ve been missing you, where have you been?”
“Seeking my identity,” sighed Hydra.
“Ah,” replied Yuffie. “Are you having an existential crisis?”
“Not sure,” said Hydra. “What’s an existential crisis?”
“Well,” replied Yuffie, “it’s this thing that happens to humans when they can’t sleep at 3 am…”
Howdy! Our new book, Seeking Hydra, will be released today. From Monday to Friday this week the Kindle/ebook edition will be free. Keep an eye out for a post and links later on today!

She just stood there. Watching her.
The door handle was hot enough to melt her skin. Her right hand useless. Her left hand wrapped in a t-shirt. Better luck this time.
Almost blinded by smoke, she could still see her. She ran down the stairs, the heat singeing her hair. Her tear ducts couldn’t function. Her eyes were dry. She reached the front door.
She stood watching from the top of the stairs.
She was outside, coughing, lungs filled with smoke. She felt dizzy. There she was. Standing over her.
In lieu of Hydra story because they’ll be Monday to Friday this coming week, a Sunday afternoon horror story.

He held the magnifying glass above the ant. Every time it started to burn, it managed to get out from the focus of the heat.
“Try pinchin’ it’s legs off,” said James.
He reached down, gently holding the ant under his thumb, and sheared each leg off with his nail.
Once immobile, the lens came back out, the ant began burning again.
Funny the things you remember when somebody has drugged you and left you paralysed under a glass roof on the hottest day of the year.

“It was chuffing awful,” moaned Cloud.
“What’s that?” asked Fuen.
“We went to a zoo this morning,” sighed House.
“It was tiny,” said Cloud.
“They had one exhibit,” grumbled House. “Just one dog.”
“Ah,” said Fuen. “Shih Tzu?”
“The worst,” replied Cloud.
