By that, being utterly surrounded by varying degrees of savage animals- wolves, tigers, a hippo, and a few giant rats. Not to mention we found out that they have been experimented on- and mindcontrolled- by the evil brain. A literal brain.

"Well, technically this is your fault, because you were the one that suggested we confront slimey over there." Artemis speaks out, her back and Kaldur's pressed up against each others and mine, forming a triangle of vision. "So, you have to find a way to get us out."

That blow would have certainly caused me misery when I wake up in the morning after this, so thankfully the bite didn't connect as intended. Instead, the teeth contact with the solid ground with a cringing scrape and screech.

Hopefully finishing this battle with a rage-constructed baseball bat, I slam it into the temple of the massive, oversized rat.

Even with the odd enhancements made to these creatures, the rat falls to the ground with it's chest still heaving; knocking unconscious, and out of the fight for the time being. Now, I can direct my valuable attention on the hippo, which is still staring at me.

What are you waiting for, big guy? I muse at the awkward sight. Come to your local vet, Kyle Rayner.

Seems to me that the fella's waiting for me to make the first move. Not the greatest strategy as it gifts me plenty of time to think, which in turn equals me coming up with a creative way of taking him out. The power rings versatility is my best asset, but my colourful brain comes at a close second, in my opinion. I could chain him down and buy time for the others, but they appear to be fairly strong without any modifications. Let's go with that for the moment,

    In the article “The Comparison Trap” by Rebecca Webber she makes some very good point on the subject at hand comparing being negative and positive just depending on the aspect you take on whatever you're comparing yourself to. A point I would like to make for a point she could have touched on as well, being the aspect of the comfort zone. To look more on positive reaction you can usually find it by just simple stepping out of that comfort zone by doing something maybe you never did before or learning something new.

    In the book “The Warmth of Other Suns”, Isabel Wilkerson portrays the many struggles that black people had to go through in the late 1800s and early 1900s. “The Piano Lesson” can be compared and contrasted to “The Warmth of Other Suns” in many different ways; one being that it doesn’t go into as much detail about The Great Migration. Instead, it focused on a specific family, and included some of the issues they had to face. Even though the two books are not completely the same, “The Warmth of Other Suns” can definitely influence your understanding of “The Piano Lesson”.…

    Long pieces of grass were parted upwards from their bodies; and their blood tainting the area around. A large unknown animal stared straight through me from across the red splattered field.

One of the biggest differences that people will mention is that being in a car is considerably more comfortable than riding on a bus.…
