Three kids wandered along a disappearing path in the middle of a dense forest. These children looked strange. The tallest girl, Anna, wore black and white on either half of her body. The other girl wore a plain white mask over her face. Her name was Persephone. There was only one boy in the group, his name was Shad.
“Where are we?” Anna murmured. She looked back to consult Persephone and Shad, but they both shrugged. “I guess we should just keep walking then.”
The kids walked in a straight line until the sun was directly overhead. The trees seemed to move closer together and become a more vibrant green. Birds chirped loudly and bees passed by.
“Nothing looks familiar. Maybe we should turn around.” Persephone said, looking to her companions

    Anthony felt a chill run through his body at the silence, but ignored it in favor of talking with Wendy, who was explaining her college courses to the teens. They continued on, pushing past risen roots, fallen trees and weeds while chatting aimlessly. “So what’s the plan here, wander like teens in a horror movie or is there an actual destination?” A glare from over the map was his answer, and when Tony rolled his eyes Dipper decided to kick a pebble in his direction. “What are you, 12?”…

    Mt. Evans Standing on a massive rock, I overlooked an array of majestic, snow capped mountains. Aspens covered the area like quills on a porcupine. The horizon was replaced with a jagged line of rocky peaks that surrounded us on all sides. I could see for what seemed like hundreds of miles in each direction. Below me, the side of the mountain was covered in a layer of different sized rocks, that ranged from the size of a pea to the size of a house.…

Then the center and cause of the FAYZ would be Theraman Lake? Theraman Lake must have toxic waste or some other form of nuclear waste.…

    His fingers were trailing up and down her sides over her ribs while the heels of his hands made lazy progress up her spine. Blair was jolted to the soles of her feet when his fingers brushed the sides of her breasts, plumped out against the quilt. She shifted her weight and he got the less-than-subtle message. His hands left her long enough to get more lotion. When next he began, they were on the backs of her knees.…

    It was over. The Empire had lost both their leader and strongest weapon, not to mention some of their finest troops. Sure, they still had Admirals spread throughout the galaxy, each probably with their own fleet, but without someone there to hold their hands and make sure they all got along, it was doubtful that they would be able to continue in a war. Years of the Rebellion's fighting, of losing allies and friends, had finally paid off.…

    Every time I remember my family vacation to North Carolina, I recall the one lesson I learned on that invigorating trip: respect nature. The Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina attract thousands of hikers annually due to their beautiful, lengthy hiking trails. However, remaining on the beaten path is more crucial than one might assume. Having driven the long route to the trail, my father, sister, brother, and I hopped out of our green minivan and purchased water bottles and park maps from the information kiosk located at the start of the trail.…
