One day, a teenage girl named Callie Parker was in the middle of eating lunch with her family when her mother poured the last drop of water into her handcrafted mug. “Callie, do me a favour and go fetch me some water.” Without hesitation, Callie buckled up her riding boots and headed out the door towards the stable. That is where she kept her horse, Moon.
This large black mare’s eyes glistened in the sunlight as Callie tacked her up and hopped on. They rode out to the well, which was placed in the middle of a sandy field. Halfway there, Callie was becoming so hot that she had to take off her plaid shirt and tie it around her waist, leaving her in just a white tank top. She couldn’t even imagine how hot her black mare must be.
When she finally got to the

Her parents were standing outside in panic as they desperately searched for Callie’s little sister, Maya. Without hesitation, Callie darted into the flaming barnyard in search for her sister.
After she broke down the door, she noticed that the fire had spread due to the hay in the surrounding stables. In the very corner of the barn, she saw her sister crying. When she tried to get to her, a piece of wood from the roof fell, trapping Maya. Callie had an idea.
She ran outside of the barn, grabbed the two buckets of water off of Moon, and raced back into the barn. There, she dumped the buckets of water on the flaming piece of wood that was trapping Maya, and her little sister was able to squeeze through. They ran out of the barn. Just then, the police and fireman had arrived. They put out the barn fire just before it reached the house.
Later, the police interviewed her parents and they said that bandits had robbed them and lit the barn on fire. Their resources were damaged and the water was lost, so Callie went to the well to fetch more. When she came back, the family ate dinner and then snuggled into bed. Thankfully, that night, the house was

The fire spread from the O’Learys’ barn to the yards nearby. Soon it was spreading throughout the neighborhood. William Lee, a neighbor a block away, saw the fire and ran to Bruno Goll’s drugstore to turn in the fire alarm. Bruno Goll refused to turn in the alarm because he said the fire truck had already gone past. So instead of arguing, Lee went home to his family. At the courthouse the lookout on duty saw smoke, but thought nothing of it, thinking it was just Saturday's fire and there was no reason to be alarmed. Then he looked up and noticed it was a different fire and had his assistant strike the Box 342 for the fire department. Soon fire trucks were at the scene and attempted to put out the fire. The fire department’s Chief Marshal, Robert A. Williams got the engines to circle the fire to contain it. They got as close to the fire as they could until their arm hair was being burned and their

Maya loves her brother immensely with full admiration and gratitude. She goes as far as to saying she wanted to “live a Christian life just to show God that I was grateful [for having Bailey].” She loves him not only because he was actually attractive, being “small, graceful, and smooth” with “velvet-black skin,” the opposite of her, but he provided the affection she had been lacking form other family members; he was the closest thing she had to a parental figure. Being the “pride of the Henderson/Johnson family,” Bailey received scarce punishments for his rambunctious antics, a factor that came in handy when aiding Maya. Dismayed at her appearance, the elders in Maya’s family would ridicule and undermine her. Seeing the hurt emanate from Maya,

As soon as I heard that the Mayan Scholar, Ixchel, had finally predicted her thoughts on the future, I immediately insisted on throwing a dinner with her and a few other acquaintances to get an insight on what she thought would happen to the planet of Acirema. I called all the guests the morning of the party and for the first time in what felt like forever, I got lucky when everyone said they could attend. I started preparing the menu early so that throughout the day I could begin to cook. I figured by cooking grilled chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and dinner rolls, everyone would be satisfied. With such a short notice I felt as if I was in a hurry all day, losing track of time. It wasn’t long into what I thought was the beginning of my day when I heard the first doorbell ring.
