The Open Door

Instead, he left it parked outside the front door; a spot reserved for ambulances only. The four of us then jumped out of the car, slamming the doors behind us. We then ran through the doors marked “Emergency Room”. There we encountered the desk clerk who was a nasty witch and gave us the wrong directions to the emergency room where Carter was being held. As we were…

agree with Motoko on installing “automatic locking mechanisms for dormitory and classroom doors” (1), it’s a way to keep a gunman away from hurting students. Locking the doors will keep the gunman lock and not being able to move around the campus. I have being on a situation where I was locked at home. Back in El Salvador my mom used to go for grocery and leave me and my siblings at home. We were not able to open the windows or answering the phone while we were alone. My older sister was about…

The two girls swiftly picked their way through the throng of 7th graders marching up the steep incline of steps into the large glass doors of the ancient shrine of Resurrection Middle School. Genni Mac stood staring at the two immense openings to the school without emotion or concern whether she could pass any academic test or exam, but her concern lied in the fact could she pass the…

When she would go visit him, she said he would take an eternity to open up the door (USAToday, 2013). She went on to mention that when the family tried to make travel plans, Castro’s life always got in the way. He didn’t like leaving his house unattended for more than a day at a time he told them. She also recalled that…

envying those winged creatures, one minute they are here, and in an instant, they fly away. When I close my eyes, I imagine myself as one of those blue birds, and I fly, I fly far, far away from this place, I fly until I find happiness, and then I open my eyes only to see the white walls, and the white bed, and the white floors. The leaves are orange, and the skies are grey. The only sound is the howling of the wind. Looking out the window is my favorite pass time. As I go through the halls, I…

main floor. After I got up the set of stairs, I heard footsteps, the footsteps were running up the steps after me. Because of this, I ran faster, and up another set of stairs.

I expected a casual ‘how was school?’ or ‘Love you, hope you had a great day.’ But it was far from that. My little sister Kennedy had not been feeling well, a little under the weather. This was typical from our family since it seems someone always gets sick in the winter. You could tell she was weak, losing weight, and becoming increasingly thirsty, but no one…

eyes lit up. I ran to find something to fight with I ran and got a medal chair people sit on in the waiting room that folds up. I ran down the hallway but there were zombies that way so I turned back and ran the other way. I started running to an exit door but it said…

” “Ritsu, no one is here, stop being a baby!” Kisa snapped, over his friends constantly whining as they tiptoed through the dark room. “This is a bad idea, and it’s probably illegal now that I think about it.” “We already broke through the back door, we’ve passed the threshold of illegal activity. Also is it breaking in if they hid their key right under the mat? That's almost like they wanted someone to break in.” Ritsu shuffled behind Kisa, uncomfortable with the whole situation. If it was…
