Kirsten paid the barista at her local coffee shop for the drinks she purchased and headed out the door. The warm taste of fresh coffee was what drove many people to get up and get moving in the mornings. The drink had a knack for turning it’s drinkers into more awake, morning people. However, it never seemed to work for people like Kirsten Clark. As she has said before, she wasn’t a morning person, nor was she much of an anytime person. Due to her condition, temporal dysplasia, Kirsten had no perception of time whatsoever. The condition usually didn’t affect her all that much, but on some days, it did happen to make her late for work if she hadn’t allotted enough time for herself to get there. On days when that happened, she would often get …show more content…
Kirsten, what’s wrong? What happened?” Cameron worried into the mic. Without taking the time to say anything, Kirsten typed in her exit pin code and bounced herself from the memory, gasping for breath and trying to ignore the newfound stinging pain in her torso. Sitting up in the fish tank as soon as she was out of the memory, Kirsten breathed heavily and looked down at her own abdomen, where the two bullets passed through. There were no gaping holes, nor any sign or damage. Cameron rushed to the edge of the tank and climbed the ladder until he was eye level with Kirsten. “Are you okay? What made you bounce so suddenly?” “T-the bullets went right through me. It felt like I actually was shot,” she stammered, trying to slow her breathing as she climbed out of the water. Cameron offered her a hand to keep her steady, which she gratefully took. His eyebrows were furrowed together in concern. “That… shouldn’t have happened. I mean, you aren’t physically there. There’s no way for you to actually feel the bullets.” “Well, I did,” Kirsten snapped, a tinge of panic in her voice. Cameron seemed to back off at that point, leaving Kirsten to go get changed. Camille watched her leave before looking to Cameron. “What was that
There are many things in life that shape us to become what the world has destined for us to be. Just a single action can trigger a widespread chain of lifelong changes sometimes for the better and other times for the worse. These changes ultimately make us who we are and who we will become. There are many life stories of people who have made choices that make them exactly who they are today, but below I will tell you about mine.
Skylar Domonique Clark. I was supposed to named Veola Shyanne after my great great grandmother, she died when I was 8 years old. But my mother her name is Ameka changed my name she thought it was an old name. When I was about 4 or 5 years old I started to have problems with my asthma it stopped me from playing with other kids and me being a kid without me being sick. I had to take steroids for my lungs because they had gotten worse. But a couple of months later my lungs were healed properly but I still had asthma. And a couple of years later I had learned how to ride a bike but let me tell you it was the best time of my life. Even tho my mom was scared to teach me,
“Okay so we found the bullet, but we need to get it out before it causes more bleeding, so I’m gonna give you some medicine to go to sleep, and when you awake you will be bullet-less and all bandaged up.” The doctor said.
“Why doesn’t it hurt?” he mumbles to himself, looking down. He doesn’t feel like he’s been shot. The blood confirms that he has, but there’s no pain. The only thing he’s felt at all was a sensation like being punched, when the bullet first went in. And his legs are falling asleep from the strange position he has them in. That’s all.

I shot him dead first, right through the heart. Just like I killed the possum few months back.” Tim said in an aggravated tone, getting fed up. Louise paled when she heard that. When did Tim kill a possum? And where the hell did he get a gun from. Louise faintly heard the doctor tell Tim that Ian did, in fact, shoot him, but Louise had blocked out everything. Kirsty’s death finally catching up to her. This whole situation was finally getting to her. Hearing that Tim had shot Ian and killed a poor innocent possum, this was all too much. Louise didn’t even realise she had started screaming hysterically, her hands almost shattering the arms of the chair and her knuckles going white. She was as stiff as a board. Louise could no longer hear Doctor Smith, she could no longer see Tim’s pale skin and dark eyes. Louise collapsed, she just laid curled into a ball on the ground screaming. All around her nurses were rushing, trying to sedate her. Finally someone did sedate her and everything went quiet. Tim had also passed out, but not before repeatedly saying Kirsty’s name like it was his own personal mantra and the Doctor deciding that both Tim and Louise needed a psych
When it comes to finding the time to handle everything involved in work, family and everything else, sometimes their don 't seem to be enough hours in our day. This becomes more difficult when you find yourself lacking the energy you need to get through each day. Coffee is a cheap fix that many of us use to get up and going, but there are additional steps we can take to ensure we have the physical and mental energy we need to ensure we don 't neglect any important aspect of our lives.
“I… I’m sorry, I can’t let you die.” She pressed the cold barrel of the gun
Tom fired his musket at another british soldier. He gasped in pain as a bullet dug into his shoulder, throwing him to the ground. Red, hot blood dripped from his arm. He winced in pain and clenched his jaw. Tom grabbed his shoulder in a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding. He began to slip into unconsciousness as he lost more blood.
“You look like total shit today. What happened?” Gilbert sighed, taking a glance up from his gun.

A jolt of pain shot through Avi’s leg as Meg’s slight frame crashed into Avi’s sore body, making her grunt, and glance down at her leg, only then realizing that a rough looking bandage was tied around her calf. “Oh, I’m sorry.” Meg gasped, pulling away. “Are you okay?” She looked down at Avi’s leg.
“In fifteen years, there’s been only one person who’s ever gotten the drop on me.” He angled his head back, not daring to look at the gunmen, letting the mystery unfold before him. He’s a wait-and-see man, she knows he always has been. Careful consideration, and exertion at the right moments; he’d taught her that and it’d been a hard lesson to learn. Not the hardest, but certainly hard. “And I know that person’s dead.”
“I 'm so sorry I have to be the one to tell you, but your parents are in the hospital, and I am simply their nurse.” The lady explained. Becky sat there paralyzed, not knowing what to do.
The shooter had already fired several rounds before he made his way to the 502nd; stopped his vehicle, pointed his weapon at Paul and fired two rounds. Thankfully, he missed. Both rounds impacted the building just above and behind Paul’s Sergeant and he. Paul said “Dad, I looked right at him and he raised his weapon and fired. I ducked behind the door and I felt the bullets go by... They hit the wall right next to me” His Sergeant and he scrambled inside the building and watched helplessly as their fellow Soldiers were attacked at the 1st Medical Brigade across the street. As soon as the shooter left, he and many other Soldiers began providing first aid where they could. Minutes later the shooter lay dead in front of Paul’s barracks. Paul’s life, my life and everyone’s lives involved will never be the
