Six Sci Fi short stories about Bigfoot, a strange execution, a Beagle that dabbles in psychiatry, a peculiar flower ritual, a mysterious lady who likes kites, and a bonus political humor story (33,130 words).


Bigfoot and the Boundary:

--Mark did not expect to be in hand to hand combat with this creature which was not supposed to exist but that's what he would end up doing. That was the bargain he had made to himself for what the beast had done to Brenda months earlier on their fateful trip to the secluded cabin.


Meeting Bigfoot:

--Jack Santone had retired from the Seattle Police Force a year earlier and moved near the Gifford National forest for a blissful retirement full of endless fishing and camping excursions. But today he had not planned to be in hand to hand combat with a creature his friend Norm insisted did not exist.


Sydney, the Beagle is My Analyst:

--Martin wasn't sure about his new analyst. Martin Fenton finally decided to seek help for his problem. His problem had cost him his wife and job, and turned him into a buffoon-like figure to others. Now as he sat on the couch in his psychiatrist's office, he wondered if he was going to get the help he sought from his analyst who sat poised in a chair across from him--an insightful beagle.


The Ghostly Kite:

--It will be a trip and a pretty lady he will not soon forget. When a CPA takes a weekend vacation trip to Ocean City, Maryland, he finds himself returning a stray kite to a somewhat sad, beautiful mysterious lady in the apartment above him. He soon becomes attracted to her and she leads him on a journey back to her past.


Execute Him in the 13th Hour:

--It was the 13th month and 13th day of Jake Bradley's stay on death row. Now in the 13th hour, Jake was moving closer to his date with Ol' Sparky. Ten years earlier Jake had put an abrupt end to the young Latin lover of his pretty wife. It was Jake's own justice meted out without emotion with his own hands around the Latino's neck, snuffing out his cheating ways.

The judge had sentenced Jake to death but there had been no remorseful statements emanating from Jake. Even Jake's occasional visitor over the years, Father Johnson, a poor excuse for a man of the cloth, had never heard any remorseful utterings from Jake.

But in the final hour, the priest would make one more attempt to get Jake to admit his failings and thus give the priest another inmate he could add to his list of saved souls to impress the Bishop with. But the final visit would not quite turn out the way the priest had hoped.


The Haunted Yellow Rose:

--A teenager goes to his favorite spot, a picnic table under a willow tree in his backyard, to be alone for a bit. He encounters a neighbor, a young woman with auburn hair, at the neighboring residence whom he had never seen before. He discovers the mysterious lady has a penchant for yellow roses.


Bonus: (political humor)

The Governor's Aide:

--Political humor. Do all our politicians talk this way behind closed doors? Let's hope not. There's definitely no phony PR talk here as the mythical governor of a northern state has a nitty gritty conversation as he shares his crude blunt philosophy and thoughts about people and politics, with his aide on a car ride to a PR function
