Sci-Fi Short Stories

A virtual city street, once a place of fond memory, grows colder and more hostile with each failed attempt to fix the past. Glittering icicles, sharp as glass, spread across buildings, reflecting a corrupted, digitized winter that threatens to become permanent.

A deep winter chill permeates a small apartment, now dark and silent. The air is thick with unspoken fear, the only sounds the creak of old wood and shallow breaths.
