Fletcher had heard one of the commanders announce that they were ready and another voice responded, “Begin.” The leader put his intercom away and pulled a breaching device from its cartridge.

The main theme of this book is how everyone in the city works hard in order to survive every day of the siege. The men on the hills and the ongoing war have thrown everyone’s lives into utter chaos.

There was a moment before impact that was the last instant of things as they were. Then the visible world exploded” (Galloway 1, 3, 6).

As dawn broke the screaming began. My blood curdled with fear, questions began to flood my brain; what had I done? Soon the whole city had erupted. Screams of anger, screams of pain, were put on display for not only the government to see, but for me. Buildings were trashed and burnt. I watched from my window as floods of people joined in tearing down buildings and anything in near visible sight. Once the buildings were in ruins the civilians started attacking each other. The wild boars released from their captivity attacked the civilians ripping their bright red flesh away from their scrawny bodies. People fought back at the savages, using theirs nails and raw hands.

building. Despite being surrounded by potential Iraqi threats and warnings from his teammates to pull out, James proceeded with the disposal, even throwing away his communication device.

James gags the gunner and ties him up in the basement. He then takes a good look at the man's face as he remembers that this was the strange old man that had bumped into him that night. He also remembered that was the time he lost the piece of paper he had found at the burned house. He looks through the man's pocket and finds a notebook and the paper James had lost. He locks the basements door and goes to the sofa to view what he has so far.

First, I have had customer service experience during my job as a dietary technician, where one of the main duties of my job was interacting with our customers and performing tasks that they requested from us. I also have several years of experience working small increments on a winery where some of my duties required helping new customers find what they were looking for and explaining winemaking processes.

Sound’s of fire arms going off. Screams of innocent people being killed. By people no younger than five years old. Heads full of drugs, alcohol, and gunpowder. Killing when told to, and never questioning the person giving the commands.

In a matter-of-fact voice, Tom said, “First, we take the charges and set them on the North side of the prison. Then we put high explosives all around the prison, so the troops suspect it’s an aerial bombardment. 9.6 seconds after the charges explode, we use a laser to cut through the wall. Latter that, we hack into the encrypted computer system, find his cell and get out. Finally, we’ll set off the bombs, and 3.2 seconds later we head out of the German Territory.”

James immediately ran out of the place and ran home. He didn’t care that he was leaving work or that he was going to his house. The world around him seemed to be falling apart. As he was gonna exit the gate, he saw a crowd of people there lining up covering the door asking for answers. When James looked to see the group he saw that the leader was Mr. Docster. He had gathered everyone in the town up to see what was inside the base. Everyone was chanting about the rights of people and having to know what was going on. James saw people climbing the fences only. Then he turned around and Mr. Docster spoke to James with the

Ollie lights the world on fire. In the second half of the season, things pick up for them and now Ollie has at least a goal every game. And more points. Paul’s explosive too. He got a hat trick against Spokane back in January and since then surpassed the previous season in goals. He’s now at 24 which is a personal best. It’s only February and Paul is nowhere done. He feels good and nothing is more fun than winning, especially when the crowd is chanting, “Portland sucks!” in his face. He’s better than they know and he’s better than they can imagine.
