Hello Mr. Bills, I am currently sick and not allowed to attend school until I have received my test results from the doctors due to the fact that I am highly contagious at the moment. Since I am not allowed at school, I gave Kaitlin the outline of "A Stream in the Ravine". Guy and I both worked on it in class and he told me he would turn it in because the bell had rung. When you handed papers back, you gave it to me. I have talked to Guy and he said he turned it in.…
“If both samples were similar enough to one another, then I could immediately rule out starving them to death. A single creature could cannibalize itself, the heal damage until the natural end of its lifespan. If they have a natural end point to their lifespan. The most direct route would be to immolate the entire quarantine zone. But that’s not considering their mental structure-”…
I only watched helplessly as the turquoise vase wobbled off of its shelf, seemingly falling in slow motion until it hit the cold stone, erupting in a firework of glass. He swiveled his head around, eyes widened, pale face, and trembling hands. My hands automatically went up to clasp my mouth, muffling a scream that never came out.

As I was sleeping, Ponyboy woke me up with an aggressive tug & push, “come on Johnny, we’re getting out of here” Pony began, “we’re going far away” he continued. I didn’t know what happened or what was wrong but I just followed Pony’s lead.…
Really, all we learn about him initially, is that from childhood, his dream and ambition was to save the world. Both this childhood dream, and the absence of a name, serves an intentional purpose. This purpose is to make the reader more easily able to identify with the narrator and the culture he represents. The narrator’s childhood dream of saving the world can be seen as a metaphor for an initial environmental respect, making the narrator closely relatable to environmental studies majors such as myself, or really anyone with an appreciation for the natural world. An argument can indeed made that in order to save the world, from an environmental perspective, this…
Like the quiet before the storm, there was another nigh-complete silence, a well-needed respite after the deafening gunfire they had been subjected to; then, the thunderous sound started up again, the crack of Daniel Stoll shooting indiscriminately like a madman. The gang members, surging through this unreliable curtain of bullets, did not pursue their entourage, instead slamming the door shut with a tremendous clamor. It was a bizarre, ridiculous decision. Had they wanted to escape the wrath of Mr. Stoll and his equalizer, it was entirely possible to simply not walk towards the doorway! Instead they pressed forward into a place with no cover to merely shut a door.…

Her silly brother had the best of intentions and apparently, he was very persuasive when he convinced her to free the animals or else she wouldn't be standing here now. [b]" They are not kittens XIU!…

CHAPTER TEN Invasion of the Ugly Ogres We hadn’t gone twenty feet before a set of powerful gray hands shot out and clamped around my ankle. I struggled and kicked with feet, and then I was staring, horrified, into the enormous face of a ogre the color of death marched. I drew my sword. “Ah, the little brat, wants to play at being a bad boy?”…
“Will look over here!” Miranda said as she looked out the window to an asteroid passing by. “Woah!” said Will as he saw the asteroid pass by with a loud whoosh! I thought the rocketship Fuzzball was going to crash because of the asteroid that passed by, Will nearly ran back to control Fuzzball. We have been on this rocketship together for almost 2 years!…
Jessica's sandals clonked over the wood planks of the walk as she made her way quickly past the small shops and restaurants. She stopped in front of the Beach Emporium, the largest clothing store in Sandy Hallow, and peered into the window. A hand-painted sign read: Bikinis Half Off. Jessica chuckled to herself. Was that meant to be a joke?…
Indians approached them the next day and Luke and the Wagon Master rode out to have a confab. The Indians demanded two beef animals, or two mules. The wagon master refused the request. “That might not be wise, sir,” Luke advised him. “Nonsense, I’m not giving up animals, but I’ll be happy to hold a meeting tonight.…
