The weather was cold, rain clouds had cloaked the sky in despair. The music rang out like echoing children. The rain started to trickle down now making me cold. Not feeling safe here I began to run. I ran, and I ran and I ran till I couldn't do it any more. I still wasn't out of the city. I could still hear the songs play. Fell to the ground now feeling safer, even if I wasn't completely satisfied. The clouds grew thicker and then it wasn't much of a sprinkle but now a downpour. This was the best part about living in Washington, but this was hell.
Now soggy and wet I began to waddle off towards my house still so far away. Cars still lined the streets in thick. Bumper to bumper like every day, just no honking or yelling or people. This whole

The front doors smashed with In intense sound. A tall metallic person came down down like an Armageddons flame, literally he was on fire. He was screaming as he fell and hit the ground rolling across it. Screaming and screaming and screaming came from him as he spazzed on the ground. I flung myself back landing my hands on the cold counter top.
I could see myself in his visor. The screaming rang in my ears. I froze staring at him while I listened to the now to the awful moaning. The flames burning the were now burning the black Painty off. Peeling, I couldn't tell what was in the air, it was either ash or paint. I swore I made eye contact with him even though I couldn't see them.
His moaning was ended by a quickly with a small gurgle of blood. A hatchet had been flung into his throat. I stood there terrified. Crackling of broken glass, and clinking of chains filled the air. Looking over at the broken glass doors where I had entered and where the dead guard had crashed in, I saw a little boy. Shirtless and shedding chains across his shoulders like two sashes crossing. He had on ripped gray jeans and old ripped conversion high

It was no doubt that it was the kid with the axe. The music's was still playing it was on repeat. I dashed towards the stairs and then dashed up them. a small door stood at the top. I didn't even try the handle there wasn't time. So I throw myself at the door breaking it open. The clouds made the darkening skies even darker and rain froze my skin. The rain was in a downpour. On the opposite side of the building there was a fire escape. I sprinted at it and when in reached it there was nothing. The fire escape had broke. I could hardly see the rest of it resting at the bottom of the building. I could hear the door slam open behind me. I flung myself to the wall. He looked at the shadow in all of the rain. Slowly walking towards me with his weapon drawn. I couldn't back up and I had nowhere to run.
" I'm sorry but I can't let anyone know i was here." He came closer until we were eye to lens. He reached to the side of his head and clicked a little button. His lens glew were neon green.

    I would love to have dinner with George Washington because I want to hear about all of these accomplishments and how it was like being the very first president of the United States. George Washington was the last soldier standing out of 86 soldiers. He was also the only surviving soldier of the militia army. There seems to be a story that described him as “bullet proof president”, and that is what interests me into meeting Mr. Washington. During his lifetime was called “father of his country.”…

    It gets stupidly hot in Danielsville, Louisiana, especially around summer. This would be fine I guess if we had something to do, to keep our mind off of the heat but there isn’t anything to do. Danielsville, Louisiana has three churches (Pentecostal), twice as many bars, one high school and no books stores or libraries. This means you’re either too drunk to read, or too Christian to read anything good. Big enough to have a mayor’s house, but not big enough to be on any map of any kind, it’s the kind of town where everyone knows your name and basically everything about you.…

    Lost The shrieking sirens pierce my ears; the shrill of wailing shells torment my mind, as the rifles’ metal shells puncture my home. I run outside to witness the invasion of hell. Ten thousand strong soldiers approach in battle formations, no remorse, no pity, no heart for even the innocent, who took no part. Only the corpses of wives and husbands and children left in their footsteps.…

    Small Moment Narrative By: Simona McDonald It had been a grey, gloomy September day from the moment the sun chose to rise. A faint wind flowed through our hair while a slight drizzle sprinkled down upon us. The lake’s chilly, dark green water came crashing down onto the beige concrete in heavy waves as we strolled along beside the water, taking in the breath-taking scenery. There had been a faint mist acting as a blanket covering the city of Chicago.…
