The wind was mild and the air was crisp as it gently hit Avery on her face. This was it, her chance to show that she can one day be as good as the professional riders. The sun was beating down on her face as the clock began the countdown. Three. Two. One. Go. Millions of thoughts bombard her head at once. Regardless, Avery carried on with confidence and hope. Over the first jump, then the second, and then the third. As she reached the second to last jump, both of her stirrups detached from her saddle making their way onto the dirt ground. There was only one jump left. The clock continued to run as Avery completed the obstacle in 3 minutes and 56 seconds. It was the fastest time of the day, but there were still 10 other players waiting to beat her time. Minutes felt like hours as Avery waited for the officials to announce the top three. It was finally time to hear the shocking news.The speaker announced a familiar name,” Avery Cullen and Splash in first place with the fastest time of the day.” Her heart nearly stopped as her competitors came around to congratulate her.

Anastasia Lynn was a sophomore at Cottey College in Nevada, Missouri. The school sat in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nothing. No matter which direction you looked there was just trees and old dusty brick campus buildings. A trip to the inner city required two hours traveling time to and from. The only place near the all-girls college was Crowder college. They weren’t much better. The drive home to Indianapolis was worse. The trip was just short enough to make in one day with no overnight stops and just long enough to get tired of looking at the unchanging scenery of randomly placed houses and watching grass dry. Because of this Anastasia very seldom went home, but this year was different. Fall break had aligned with her twenty first
Everything seemed so peaceful but yet so quiet. The sky was a clear, cloudless blue. There was a light breeze that seemed to caress whatever it blew upon.
As the lights in the theater dimmed, the chatter slowly died down. Shaping Sound was about to begin. Suddenly, the lights on stage popped on and dancers poured from the wings walking like pedestrians. Walking in all directions, the dancers created an appealing image. The walking soon led to an electrifying, yet quirky contemporary number. Nearing the end of the number, the star of the show, Kathryn McCormick, appears onstage. She comes onstage all disoriented and stumbles into the bed which has magically appeared on stage and falls asleep, the lights turning off with her sleep. A couple of seconds later, the lights reappear revealing the bed had moved and wall-like props have been brought in. Kathryn wakes up and it seems as if she is dreaming. The next couple of numbers are soft contemporary numbers with loads of lifts and subtle accents. It then turns into a darker jazz at a nightclub with 6 of the company members coming onstage to perform. It then turns into a fun, upbeat, old- school jazz when the rest of the company members join them
About 10 minutes later, after a nice chat, the bell rang. I hugged Annabelle goodbye and started to slowly make my way back to 10EB. I settled into my seat and I looked around the classroom. I noticed some new faces that I had never seen before around St Aloysius College. However, there was one face I did not see, and that was Adelaine’s face. I started to think about how I would be as sweet as pie towards her this year and I hoped for the best that she would return the favour.
It is the first day of a new school year. A teacher is in her room preparing for the day ahead just like every teacher across the nation. But something is different about this one. This teacher is positively radiant. She’s beaming from ear to ear at the thought of new moldable minds sitting in her colorful room. Her hair is wrapped is a twisting silver spiral and her jeans are bedazzled and trendy. She’s well composed right down to her patterned cowboy boots. Something else is unique about this teacher though, and it’s not just her fashion. This woman is strong. This woman is determined and ready to take on any challenge. Soon every person in Fairview High School would know her name, Valerie Willmore.
