Two-handed sword

begging the two to get on with their fight. Laertes stomped his foot on the ground in front of him, steadying himself for the next strike. "Hamlet my friend, you know this is futile. Your first hit was out of pure luck. The next three will come from me as a direct result of pure talent. You cannot win." They quietly paced in calculated circles around their stage. Their swords raised high and their guards up. "You seriously underestimate me, Laertes," Hamlet said, lowering his sword to waist…

the mask that hides it. I grit my teeth and spit out a response. “You're one to talk, your monsters are the only reason my team is down you demented piece of trash!” I break our swords away from each other and slash at the evil rangers shoulders. He back-steps and stabs at me with a chuckle. Spinning out of his swords path I catch a glimpse of the rest of the power rangers. They're writhing on the ground next to piles of ash left by defeated monsters. This battle has been hard…

“Interesting, never knew you’d get this strong Kiiara,” a deep male voice says as two beings appear in the sky with their weapons clashing against each other creating a very powerful shock wave which causes even the ground beneath them to vibrate tremendously. One is a lady and in her hand is a sword, while the other, a male holding two short blades with a long chain attached to the handles of both blades. The man quickly moves back while they are still in the air and stretches his palm at the…

Surely there must be some silver back wolves roaming about, playing games with their prey. Or maybe a grizzly bear or two. Or maybe I can turn the wolves and the bears on each other, the ensuing clash of howls and roars would draw a fraction of the fools away, why not? Not more than a second after coming up with such a plan do I see a lone individual stray from the encampment…

sitting on two rusted nails on the wall. Amikah often awoke at night, drawn to the old weapon. She had taken the curved sword to the market several times to sell but always turned home halfway. Amikah reached across the table and took the katana from its resting place. Her left hand grabbed the hilt while she held the cherrybark sheath between her ribs and the stump that remained of her right arm. Amikah pulled the blade from its scabbard with one silent movement. She placed the sword on the…

left hand while I held the enhanced Riptide in the other. Hyperion starting shooting blasts of fire at me so I sent bursts of water at them, making steam and extinguishing his attacks. I charged at Hyperion with my enhanced Riptide and he pulled a sword of fire out of the air. I swung a clumsy blow at his head and he easily blocked it, but that was just a distraction for me to wrap my whip around his leg before making it razor sharp. He roared in pain and shot an intense burst of fire at my…

“The shadow beasts are nothing compared to the nocturnals. The nocturnals are powerful creatures that can stand toe to toe with heavenly spirits like myself.” “I’ve trained to become stronger, I won’t lose to anyone or anything. Eido we have to fight, I have to get to Pele. I want to hurry up and go home.” “The numbers are too great, Isaac. If there was single nocturnal then fighting would be an option, but their numbers are too much for us by ourselves.” “We can at least try right?” Isaac…

"the call"—a unique, divine assignment given by God for his purposes, which requires faithful and active obedience, unwavering commitment, and devotion from the one called. (Robinson, N. (2014, January 28). God 's calling to missions is not authoritative the way the Scriptures are. The calling should never be challenged. Our calling is in our own heart. The calling is the work of God to bring our heart closer to conviction. This conviction is of God, and it delivers utter peace. Everyone is in…

believes an object represents. Symbols are commonly used to show larger themes that run throughout the story. Objects for symbolism can be people, places, or things. In Terry Brooks’s The Sword of Shannara, the forest is used as a symbol of fear, mysteriousness, and/or death. So far, the party to retrieve the Sword of Shannara has disintegrated, and the protagonist is lost. The story still keeps track of all of the characters, even though it has disassembled. Most recently, Menion Leah, or the…

Thank you for your willingness to serve the United States of America. The amount of money poured into defense and the military has gone far beyond a reasonable amount. The U.S.’s annual budget for military defense spending was $598.5 billion, approximately 54% of the discretionary spending of the federal government (National Priorities). This staggering number is made even more astounding by the fact that the US accounts for approximately a third of the world’s defense spending (Taylor, Karklls)…
