We both got Twix and a bottle of Sprite, but we ate the food on the way there. My dad and I went to my mom’s parents’ hunting land. The land was some small woods with big fields for the deer to roam and eat. When we got there, we got into our orange clothes, and we walked to our stand. It took us about half an hour to walk to our stand.…
Hello, I am Athena. I am the goddess of courage, intelligence, strategic warfare, and wisdom. My father is Zeus, a sky god, so he controls lightning and thunder. We are very close, probably the closest out of all 92 of his children. I guess you could say my birth was pretty abnormal.…
She had always loved the feeling of blood on my face, even when it wasn't mine. She was the night sky, a vast amount of darkness with holes all over that couldn't be stitched together. That's why I hid her under the bed so no one would ever find her, because if they ever did I would have to put them to sleep too. Her eyes were equanimity, I had to keep them in a jar beside me every night. They were the colour of an unencumbered rose , lost due to perfidiousness.…

The circus had completely knocked me out I knew by the time I got home all the candy, rides, laughter, and screaming would have taken over me. This morning I was feeling exhausted from the long night. Sleep is what I needed more of but the scent of doughnuts frying caught me by surprise. I jumped out of the bed put on a fresh pair of underwear without even thinking of taking a bath. By the time I made it downstairs everyone was half done eating their food.…
We’re hurried down the street by Ans’ mother, practically running to keep up with Ans’ long strides and quick pace. All along the street, people poke their heads out, confused, though some are well on their way, the ones with work, I presume. The streets are soon crowded with mother and fathers, elderly men and women, teens and babies, small children and young adults. Now, we are no longer moving of our own accord, rather being swept along by the tide of human flesh. Now is the perfect time, I know pickpockets must be in the midst of this crowd, searching for an opportunity, and I believe I might have found one.…
“Well, over the summer, I was down on Rush street partying with some Marine buddies in on leave. Well, we were pretty lit and so we decided to walk down to the lake to get some air. On the way we passed a couple of gay bars, and in this alley some guy with his pants and underwear down around his ankles is standing there looking at us as another guy is on his knees in front of the guy his head bobbing up and down. Then the guy on his knees must've sensed somebody looking at him and he turned.”…
On the way to their car, the detectives saw a woman running across the lawn shouting, “Wait a minute, I want to talk to you.” The detective waited and asked, “How can we help you?” “I’m Gloria Wilson. The other day, I saw Katherine.…
It was about four years ago, he remembered. He was stuck there, in that room, alone. He'd been cold, hungry, and desolate for at least 48 hours. "Why am I stuck to this chair!?", he asked aloud, through the sack on his head and the rope in his mouth, to his captors.…
The tone of Noel's voice in reply was one that few would have expected. It did not have the bravado one might have expected from a media darling (albeit a fallen one) nor the slightly spacey, wavering intonation of those that are fighting to hold onto what remains of their sanity. Nor, for that matter, did it contain the aggression that he had so often used against Dr Walt, whom he somewhat resented, for the doctor forced him to remember things he'd rather not. Instead, it might almost have been described as... ...shy! "Please, Delilah, come in," he said, standing back, making it obvious he was giving her plenty of personal space. "…
So I went outside for a while, than my dad said “Angel lets go” so I ran home and we got in my dad’s truck and left. Out of nowhere my dad pulled out tow muskies tickets. We got to the Tyson and I said “dad how did you get those tickets,” he said “it’s a secret. We went in we got a soda and some nachos and we watched the hockey game.…
A fleck of dust dances in the silence of the room, broken only by soft, rhythmic breaths. The speck abandons itself in the apparently motionless air, enlightened for just a moment by a ray of sunlight which filters through the not perfectly closed curtain. It crosses the room, ending it’s long journey on a pillow of the bed leaning against the opposite wall. It takes only a few minutes for the rising sun to beam directly in Clarke’s eye.…
He shrugs. “I mean, I feel better now than I did on Monday?” It will have to be enough, Darlene thinks, and surges forward, ignoring how tight he goes under her hands. “Stop it,” she says into the prickly start of his hair. “I’m your sister and I love you, and you can hug me once in a while.…
Three weeks on intense apartment hunting, we found one that allowed children, was an amazing price, was in a good neighborhood, and it was furnished; meaning that it came with furniture. As a result of this, we didn’t have to hire a moving company. All we had was Blair’s toys and her type of furniture, so we just put it in the back of Antonio’s truck. The apartment was around 45 minutes away from the motel we were staying in, so I felt pretty safe that we would not wind up in the same area that we came from. When we finally arrived at the apartment, I was nearly crying from joy.…
I don't know how I'm feeling right now. This is so far from normal, I'm questioning my sanity. I'm almost convinced I've gone insane. Almost.…
