As I walked through the noisy crowd of the high school with my hands in my pockets, I thought about the day that just went by. Today was my sixteenth birthday, and it didn't turn out too bad. My friends wished me a happy birthday, but it felt empty. I felt as if something special were supposed to happen today, but the day was plain overall. "There's still half of the day left," I told myself. The crowd of students that walked through the corridor came to a stop when the people couldn't go on…

A brief flash of light and I found myself on the familiar grounds, surrounded by a few shipping containers, bent metal, and an enormous, spherical machine with an orange core that lit up the open splotches on its surface. This was the gateway to the Devil Splicer’s lair, where we could take out the Splicer’s leaders, and where I could possibly gain control of SIVA for myself. The area I was in was no different compared to the first time I had traversed through here. The grounds were still…

Bruno’s family walked out on the spongy grass to the center of the churchyard. The women were wearing lacy black dresses and the men were wearing suits. As they approached the immense tree in front of them they saw the casket. Bruno was laying inside. “If only we had ran faster” said Elsa, Bruno's mother. They took their seats in the front row next to Elsas mother and father. The Pastor came to the front and had some kind words about Bruno. Gretel leaned on her mom and started to cry. At the…

Gemma smiled gingerly. “Nothing. I just… your leg is pressing into a rather nasty cut on mine.” Thorin looked to see a long slash in her pants, through which he could see an awful, but thankfully shallow, cut. He sprang back and looked her over, noting for the first time the wounds on her arms and the slashes on her face. “Don’t start worrying. It’s to be expected, since there’s a war going on outside.” She struggled to her feet, and helped him up. “Which is a very good reason why we shouldn’t…

Two years ago there was a storm that demolished the Eastern side of America. There was no chance of survival but thank god we made it alive. “ Excuse me!” “ Is she okay?” the little girl's voice asked. “Yes, I'm pretty sure. I mean she's still breathing,” a bold voice said. I slowly started opening my eyes. Straight ahead I saw grey and black clouds. I felt the heavy breeze move my hair in front of my face. My head was pounding, it felt as if someone hit the back of my head with a baseball bat.…

Eizen hates that they didn't have a car. Or at least one that works. If that old pile of junk that he had would stop falling apart him and his sister wouldn't have to walk and take bus rides just to get around. For now, though the two are forced to the whims of the bus. It’s raining today as he waits with Edna for the bus to pull in so they can finally go home. Eizen sighs inwardly as he shuffles her sleeping wait on his back. She didn’t need to wait for him at work. She should have been home…

It was 3am in the morning, and I was sleeping oh so peacefully. Little did I remember I was in the hospital. My eyes opened only to be blinded by the bright, white lights and eggshell painted walls. Wait, my room isn’t painted eggshell, and I don’t remember leaving the lights on. I tried to sit up, but all the sudden, pain shot through my body. Flashbacks of birthing my beautiful baby girl traveled through my mind. Now that I think about it my stomach does feel flatter than usual. I can’t seem…

I was waiting tables at the diner, _Harlow’s Burgers._ It was almost time for my shift to end, only 15 more minutes till 10:00. When I went back to the kitchen, Martie pulled me aside and said, “Adley, Mr. Chattfield is waiting for you in his regular booth.” I didn’t understand why she called him “Mr. Chattfield” instead of Hert. He was a kind old man, with light blue eyes and thin grey hair. I walked into the diner and saw a stranger sitting in his booth. He was on his phone. I walked up to him…

I'm mixing a bowl of brownie batter when I hear my ringtone go off. After wiping my hands, I grab my phone off of the counter and answer it. "Hello?" "Good afternoon, my Darling." Jasper greets. "Hey." I reply. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything." He says. "Oh, no. I'm just making brownies for the church's potluck tomorrow." I reply. "The meetings you go to?" He asks. "Yes." I answer. "What else do you have planned for today?" He asks. "Nothing really." I answer.…
