One day I was walking through the ruins of Pompeii. While I was walking I saw something shiny

One day, cutting through the swamp, David comes across the remains of old Indian souls and discovers a skull with jewelry still buried on the bodies. As David kicks at the skull, he hears a voice and looks up to see a black man seated on a stump just looking. The man, wearing a black sash around his body, has a soot-stained face, which makes it appear as if he works in some fiery place. David soon recognizes the stranger as the devil, the black man. Twenty years later we had a family reunion with all my relatives and they started talking about the fire.

“Some people say I was lucky to survive, other will say I deserved it for the choice I made. I’m here to say I was lucky, it’s never ok to say your life isn’t worth living even at your worst you can always look forward tomorrow will come and if you put your mind to it you’ll see that anything is possible.” – Stephen McGregor Professional Paralympian

In a red ramshackle barn, resting on the of a field, Mr. Walter Cunningham was hard at work. Mr. Walter Cunningham was repairing the roof of his barn after a branch had fallen on it. He griped onto the ladder with his muscular hands and climbed his way to the top of the barn. Mr. Cunningham was used to this hard work since he had been farming on the edge of Maycomb for many years now. The people of Maycomb looked at him as a poor farmer. He didn't have much respect from the townspeople but he did have more respect for them than the Ewells.

Haley James olive toned hands gripped the black leather steering wheel as she drove down main street away from Karen's cafe and away from the man that she very much wanted to be with. “Asshole.” Haley thought to herself thinking about her once best friend Lucas Scott; the friend that Haley had always gone to when things got tough and it was the same way around for him. They always had some kind of bond that made them each others shoulder including when Jamie died, Haley knew that she could always go to Lucas when she needed someone to talk too, but she didn't know that Lucas blamed her for Jamie's death. Nine years later and Lucas finally says the words that Haley never thought she'd hear him say, but then she never thought he would get this

“Beep beep beep” the alarm clock continues to sound off. Exhausted, I turn to the clock, it reads 5:45 am and as usual Jesika is dead asleep. See my roommate has this infuriating habit of setting goals that she can’t keep. This particular goal is to convince herself every night that she’s going to get up early, going to work out, going to straighten her hair, and going to captivate all the men in class with her delightful apparel. At this point I’ve known her for two years, it has never happened. “Jesika” I screamed over and over again, and of course, not a word from Jesika. At this point I am frustrated because I am on the top bunk and I do not have class until twelve. None of this matters now, once I move I am up for the entirety of the day.

Today after dinner Nyasha and I had decided to go on a walk since the weather was really nice. I ended up asking her about her mother's education and she stopped me “Tambu my mother does not want respect if she did she would stand her ground and not let my dad have the amount of control he has on her now”. I was shocked by her answer but was not surprised because it did come from her. But she was not done “Even when she goes back to the homestead it gets even worse. It is like she bows down to him like he is her master or something. I just do not get how she could be my mother because if that was me I would have been gone a long time ago.” After her rant, I just looked at her stunned I looked at her straight in her eyes and she looked

I look up towards the sky and see dark clouds rolling across the sky towards the west where the sounds of gunfire could be heard off in the distance. I look around the cramped bunkhouse and see the other prisoners. The bunkhouse is cold and smells of rotting flesh and human waste. The beds are made of cheap wood and thin cloth with some hay for a mattress. The guards walk in and start telling people to wake up. I slowly get out of my wooden bed out onto the muddy floor. My feet feel cold as they touch onto the earth below. My hands start to hurt from the cuts covering them when I try and get up. I see a man refusing to get out of his bunk near the entrance of the bunkhouse. The guards saw him refusing to follow their orders and dragged

The sun was about to rise, but it was still dark outside in the city of Crete. A tall muscular man with chestnut brown hair and eyes that shifted between an emerald green and an electric blue was getting ready for the upcoming race by running laps around the city. His name was Grigolo and he claimed to be the fastest runner on the planet. Grigolo got out of his bed quite loudly and his wife stirred in her sleep groggily asking,

“We're going back to the alley, where this all started, Angelica thinks we must end this there to escape this nightmare. When we arrive, you must not interfere in our confrontation with Chaos and Grunk, however, you will have to take care of any secondary characters that show up.”

Barely conscious now, Joan felt a knife cut into her skin on the back of her upper thigh. They were cutting off her skirts. She heard a belt drop, trousers crumple, and a man crouched behind her. The bare skin of his hairy thigh touch hers as he forced her knees open. Joan clawed at the gag in her mouth and somehow ripped it out. She screamed louder than she ever had in her life, but a kick to the head was the last thing she recalled before darkness took over.

Yagali's body shakes violently, as if she was a tiny leaf, in the midst of a giant storm. Her body was burning against the cooling night air. The land was quiet now, normally you could see the fireflies dancing above in the night sky with the stars softly twinkling, but tonight the stars weren't shining as bright and the fireflies were all gone. The ocean also seemed different; it was still lapping up against her ankles as it has always done, but now it feels so forbearing. Maybe it was because of her mother, who was lying against her, lifelessly.

I am Emil Oxy, the newest recruit of the Survey Corps. And today is my first day out of the bunks, which is pretty scary considering we have to leave the wall to fight the colossal titan… My closest friend, Eren Jaeger, will be joining me on my first mission. I was surprised when Eren was pulled from his execution to join the Scouts, because Eren himself is a titan shifter, meaning he can switch between man and titan. Anyways, we started walking through the large forest when the ground started trembling. A 15 meter titan came running right at us “Emil! Put your 3D Maneuvering gear to good use!” He shouted as he grappled away on a nearby tree. To be continued…

One day a group of men arrived on my island, Aeaea. The leader of the group was known as Odysseus and he had come with forty-five other men. I’m not sure why they are here but it must have something to do with the war in Troy. Maybe they're on a journey? As I watched them on their ship I saw their leader leave and go to scout out my island. He walked around for awhile until he caught sight of my castle. He heard my wolves howling and didn't dare to go on. When he returned to his men they feasted on a deer they had killed and I watched them fall into a deep sleep on the shore. When I awoke in the morning Odysseus and another man that I was unfamiliar had split the remaining men into two groups and were trying to decide who would come and explore
