Epilogue

Hawthorne walked the path, slow and steady, treading his way up the hill. As he walked, he pondered upon his whole day, from the startling events of the morning, to the unusualness of the uneventful evening. He had been staying at an old castle turned resort in the english countryside, owned by a rich American family. It had been bustling with the guess for many days. It was beautiful, with both a morning room, and a dinner room. Hawthorne recalled meeting her in the morning room, as well as…

I awoke with the pain of a thousand suns piercing my only eye. My eyesight was gone! I could not see! I had been so generous to Odysseus. I had even offered to eat him last, for what reason would he do this to me? I took the wooden spear and forcefully jerked it out of what was left of my eye. How dare they try this, a human being, shouldn't they know that they are less than me? After they have done me so wrong, my neighbors have the audacity to yell at me and whine and asked if I have been…

Waves crashed over rocks tall enough to pierce the sky as we reached the shore in the dinghy. I stepped into the crystal clear water and saw a plethora of seagulls around the rocky hills. “I’ll pick you up here in about 2 hours,” our charter captain called as he drove away, “Enjoy the Baths!” We started our trek to the beach, my mom and dad leading and my sister Emily and I trailing behind. As we reached the beach Emily grabbed my hand and pulled me ahead to see the beach. The beach was…

As the snow covered sled reached the bottom of the hill, the music grew louder, louder, louder, until he was sure that it wasn't an echo. Jonas transferred the last memory of warmth to Gabriel, and once again the flakes of heat began to travel across his frozen skin. Mustering up all his strength, Jonas lifted Gabe's frail body into his cold hands and pushed himself off the frozen sled. He trudged through the snow, Gabriel in his arms, and came to the first doorstep. He collapsed on the door,…

“YAY, I just won 2 tickets to go to the Bahamas!” I screamed. “Oh ya, who Is the extra person you're taking,”said Kadence. “I don't know yet”,I said, “I guess that is what I will be thinking about for a few minutes.” Mom said “Don't forget It has to be an adult,”. “I know” I said “I think I'm going to take Mom, Is that ok Dad, because I wanna take both of you, but I can only take one of you” “Ya that Is ok,”said dad. “ but how did you win the tickets.” “oh at the one football game”I…

Ashulti clapped his hands and the servant appeared with the last of the wine. He held up his goblet and waited as the young lad emptied the jug. “The Mistress has gone to the marketplace for more Master.” Karmel muttered, bowing his head. Ashulti glanced into the goblet. Half empty. It would suffice till Peta came home. His hands trembled as he brought the cup to his lips. Red dripped down his chin, streaking his graying beard. Why bother to wipe it away. Karmel turned to leave. “Bring me…

Looking around, they were amazed at all the beautiful colors that looked to be afire in the rocks. None had even seen anything like it. “Look, Papa; that column goes all the way to the top!” Charles exclaimed. The cave was nothing like neither the cave they stayed in after the whirlpool wind nor the one they found Wheeler and the girl in; this one had pockets of very colorful rocks. There were crystals of lavender and orange, and different shades of umber; from gingery, yellow brown to dark…

As they were leaving the Island Of Cyclops. Odysseus had told his men to close the ports. His men asked “Why do we need to? The weather looked fine”. Odysseus had replied by the looks of the sky, a storm was soon to appear. They were sailing through the ocean, the water became hard to maneuver. The men yelled we need to stop and Odysseus agreed. As they rested on the boat for the water to settle. The sky had turned darker and rain began to drop. As water began filling the boat, the men started…

Frankenstein slowly approaches the young man’s grave. I miss you, you were my best friend. What I did was awful. It should have been me, not you. Everything simply just isn’t the same without you. You were innocent and just trying to do the right thing, you didn’t deserve any of this. No one does. You were just trying to help. He pauses for a second. When I started to create the monster, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I didn’t know what horrible things he would do to the ones I…
