Well, I made it to camp yesterday evening. I wanted to get here earlier and start preparing for the hunt before the rains came but when I tested my campers electric brakes they weren't working so I troubleshot and repaired the brakes. Of course, I had my tools buried in my truck for the trip but I managed with a pair of scissors and some wire nuts. I found two wires broken where they come through the axle. I also swapped brake controllers, the one in my work truck was a little better.…
A smirk went across his face as he saw his victim in a vulnerable position. Some would think that was just how he smiled, but everybody who attended Ridgecoast High School knew better than that. At that moment, Trevor was busying himself by ripping up Caleb’s report for science class. “Please, just stop it!” Caleb yelled out.…
“Yeah, a dust cloud formed when the asteroid hit, rendering one of my eyes useless,” Amanda explains. Now I climb out of my bunker and take a look outside. All I see is the vast emptiness and the darkness. The flashlight is the only form of light I can clearly see. “Can we go find one of my friends,” I ask.…
A quiet Christmas night in 1998 in the affluent neighborhood of Los Altos, California rolled around, celebrations having just finished and adults and children alike heading to the comforts of their beds . The houses stood in an eerie silence, foreshadowing the grim despair that was soon to follow. Shawn, a 16 year old juvenile, stabbed his father with a kitchen knife, inflicting wounds to his face, neck and arms. Shawn’s mother vividly describes waking up to the blood covered body of her husband, the brownish specks of dried blood scattered over the sheets. His father remembers a moment of disorientation, until he finally realized his attacker was his own son, and proceeded to tackle him to the ground.…
“Sorry to tell you Olivia but something bad has happened.” As I was walking up the stairs I could hear my feet pounding on the floor. I felt a clench in my stomach. I didn’t know what to think. I was running ideas through my head of what could've happened.…
“Alright, we’re going to start this training session now.” Sabra said. “We’re going to start with Cardio, make sure to keep up. Don’t stop running until we make it to the glade. Now let’s go!”…
The morning sun snuck through the cracks of the curtains and hit my eyes. I groaned out, and realized I wasn't alone. Harry was still sound asleep. I crawled over him, and into the bathroom. I got the water ready, and walked out to grab new clothes while the water warmed up.…
Then there was the time cheesecake gave us all free tickets to the reds game. Well I still have a rental. So I drive us being the DD. We stop and get whiskey on the way and start taking shots every time we stop in traffic. I hardly remember parking.…
“Honey,” she reminded him gently. “You didn’t ask, I offered. And so did the kids. He’s been part of our family for so long, we’d be missing a piece if he wasn’t around. Yes, I know it’s going to be hard, but I know Jenny said that if she didn’t at least try, she wouldn’t be able to forgive herself.…
Sedated for the car ride there, not having a clear sense of where she was for a couple of weeks, they were slow to give her the antipsychotics again. More weeks passed. She was there so long that the sling over her arm and brace over her ankle were taken back long before she was released. Nothing easy about it. For a long time, she didn’t trust the doctors, fought, bit and scratched them at every bare-skinned, unrestrained opportunity.…
"Mom, I need help." I said as I was sitting at the table looking at a bunch of numbers on a piece of paper the bank had mailed to me in my name. "What is it now Bri." , she said as she approached. "What am I doing here?…
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. "…
You are sitting on my bed and I am staring at you from my desk chair. You’ve just told me, with lots of pauses and fugitive grins—shy and conspiratorial in the dim light of my lamp—that you want me to take your virginity. That you don’t want to go to college a virgin.…
"So you really want to know how I got here? Ok." Slowly I wiped my glasses against my shirt, 3 rotations for each lens. The rain battered against the windows of the diner I had just entered; I trodged to the far right corner and sat in an empty booth. I took of my boots and slapped them against the wall three times in a futile attempt to shake loose some of the water; placing down my boots I opened my bag and removed a dry pair of socks, and put them on my feet.…
