Always before, it had felt like a beginning. The casting off of an empty shell. But this end was different. As she walked away, he felt what he had made others feel so many times, and at the edge of consciousness an unfamiliar sadness appeared, regret chasing in its wake. He stood, a changing man.
Once there was a beautiful unicorn. He was so curious about the human world that he traveled there with his magical powers. He stepped on a baby's head exiting, however, so a hunter vowed his revenge. To this day, the two are chasing each other.
Jack has had enough. He walked up to the fat man, knocking him out with a single punch to the face. That'll be the last time Santa takes pennies without leaving any behind.

"Wait a minute!" Steve suddenly exclaimed. He sat up as all eyes swiveled to his direction. "I can't believe I didn't see this before...Marcus raped Ms. Marvel!" The assembled Avengers shrugged their shoulders and went back to watching Goliath smack around The Wasp.

Rampaging through the city streets, the giant bipedal crocodile had just toppled another blocks' worth of buildings. The creature breathed flame from its gaping maw, reducing another building to ash and, glass. From the distance flies Monkey, who quickly beats the monster and saves the day!

"NOW!" shrieked the mad scientists. A steel slab, suspended from chains rose towards the ceiling. Lightning strikes the slab multiple times before it is lowered slowly, smoking slightly. The scientist pulls back a sheet, revealing a monstrous human shape. After hours on inactivity, he gives it up and goes back to Law School.

Blood Red Riding Hood.
There was a girl dubbed Little Red Riding hood.
She went to give her grandma some biscuits when she met a wolf.
She pulled an uzi from her basket, told the wolf that he had a big nose and then proceeded to blow it off with repeated point blank shots to the face.
The end.

Set was rearranging his sanddunes again when he was notified that noone believed in him anymore. He drove the rival priest into eating his clothes in public.

Once upon a time, a guy went on a quest to save his girlfriend but got gored by a wild boar, landing on a fire ant hill bleeding to death unable to move and then set on fire resulting in his girlfriend being sold into slavery. And they all lived happily ever after

Steve was sat as the dining room table when Jim burst through the door, with his jacket hanging on one shoulder. "Shit, man! I'm gonna be late! What can I eat in like... five minutes!?"
Steve held up a finger as he chewed thoughtfully. Finally swallowing the cereal, and said "we've got cocoa pops and cornflakes."
Jim shook him and said "but I don't like any of them!"
"What about toast?"
Jim backhanded him sharply. "You fool! I haven't the time for toast! And we lack 'I can't believe it's not butter!'"
"Oh." came Steve's reply. "Okay."
The End.

The End
Tim had forseen the end of the world before. This time it seemed inevitable, but so it had last time.
"I saw the end of the world again"
"Again?" She started up the car. "How did it end?"
Tim looked around as they started moving.
"Like this"
And so it did.

It waits.
Not awake, and yet unsleeping, it recounts the horrors it has faced. Crushing giants of stone. Raging infernoes. Subterranean nightmares, life-sucking parasites, the alluring song of the insane. Each defeated in turn; a never-ending procession of battle and victory.
It waits.
And then; light. Freedom.
"Pikachu! I choose you!"
