Ghost Rocks In The West: A Short Story

“All we do is travel to new places, and to places we’ve already been.” said the girl

We traveled another 14 miles, and arrived at another rock called Chimney Rock. We didn't stop, but the rock was something new for us to see. For all of the rocks that we saw we could see for miles and miles and Luke was absolutely amazed! About 75 miles later we arrived at a new place called Fort Laramie. Here is where a lot of people traded, mailed their letters, and rested. Also people that were looking for gold stopped here. This is the place where mainly everybody traded with the Native American tribe that stayed here. We didn't buy any supplies, but George did trade of of our oxen that was getting old and tired for a new one.

"Then let's not stay here for long, because now they know we are here." Says Corvo as he draws his sword.

I was a fine morning when a siren went off in the town of Little Rocks, Arkansas. The people didn’t have a clue what was happening until bulletin papers stated falling from the sky in such graceful manner.

“Yeah, it reminds me of one of those horror island books I used to read when I was a kid.” Peyton replied. They both shook their heads and continued to get ready to catch the waves.

The Rocks is one of the oldest areas of the Sydney area, therefore it features a range of amazingly beautiful old historic and heritage-listed buildings. The Sirius building, for example, was designed and built between 1978 and 1979. The Rocks locality features Brutalist architecture, buildings which are now used as residential apartments. The historic architecture and history of The Rocks are not the only interesting things that make it appealing.

She looked up into the sunlight, trying to see the top of the cliff that she somehow had to get up onto. Stretching out her hands, she called the wind to her. It came willingly, smiling to herself as she felt the familiar breeze wisp through her fingertips. Closing her eyes, she called more of it. The wind started to run around her, making her hair whip into her face.

The human let out a breath, her eyes falling shut. “Oh, Demon,” a thin, weary smile crossed the teenager’s lips. “You boys have gone through so much before me, haven’t you?”
