At The End Of The Machine War

5 minute story


They stood by the battlefield, silent and thoughtful.


The mud was a mix of earth, blood, and metal. Pools of oil mingled with rivers of blood as they burned the bodies of the fallen. Broken machines were cut up and carted away in dumper trucks. Those that still moved were silenced.


As they looked away they could still hear the odd cry for help and screech of steel.

  1. I don't know how to feel after reading this 5 minute story. Powerless maybe.
