If you visit with your parents, you recognize who she is. Through the years, everyone hears about her. Mostly keeping a distance, the way one does with any viper. We’ve all talked about her. What’s not to talk about? She is the craziest old bitch most people have ever seen. That’s why I keep mama away from her. I told mama a long time ago, “Don’t get mixed up with that one. They say she’s mean as a snake.” Mama always looks so sad when it comes to her. She says, “But, honey, she seems so nice.” I tell her, “No, mama. She’s done some terrible things to people. Stay away from her, okay? By all means, never let Ava inside of your apartment. She will steal everything you have that isn’t nailed down.” Even still, early this morning …show more content…
Towards the van and past the group of those old bags crouched for the kill. Those old fossils lick their lips, watch and wait. Hoping to wrap a jaw around the old bird's head. Their flapping jaws always wrap around someone else's head. Behind us, her upstairs neighbor answers police questions. “I called you this morning after I returned from gambling. I saw her lights still on.” “Was she up?” “I don’t know, but she hadn’t left her house, or answered her door for three days. And the lights remained on the entire time. So, I thought something must be wrong.” Her arms look rigid and waxen. So odd and unable to move. Regardless of how much the EMTs try to stimulate them. One of the EMTs says over a two-way, “Her vital signs are normal. She withdraws to noxious stimuli, but does not otherwise show purposeful movement.” He’s on the radio, speaking to the hospital. I’m curious what happened to her. Wondering the same things as everyone else. Did someone finally try to hurt the old bitch? Did she fall victim to violence? “Subject is catatonic,” he reports. “She appears to have Hypo-Kinesis and mutism “ The doctor’s voice is calm. “And her …show more content…
Gambling. As in addiction! We all know the type. Their Social Security check is deposited in their account by six a.m. At eight, they walk inside of their favorite casino, the exhilaration and excitement written all over their faces. Eyeballing the old fart on the nickel slots. Standing back as he nervously pushes the keys to the slot machine and watches the images spin in the front of the machine. Watching that, people like Ava feel the itch and want it even more. But everything changes around ten, when their paycheck is nearly gone. Including part of the rent. That’s when they begin chasing those losses with bigger bets and desperation set in. They begin losing more and more. Borrowing money from payday loan outlets. And that became the pattern for Ava. But, it wasn’t until Ava had one of those come-to-Jesus revelations that she finally went off the deep end. Driving home that day, after losing her rent to the lousy slots at Arizona Charlie’s, once again. Cursing God himself. She lost it and called the police to accuse every one of her neighbors of senior
When I went down to study the body, I could see that she very thin. Most likely because she didn’t have enough to eat. The wound on her leg looked like it was infected and it seemed like she could died at any point.
Face pale with terror, Adam's shaky hand moved to switch on the bedside lamp. Images of Fire and Brimstone, and writhing figures, - men, women and children all - screaming in pain as flames consumed their bodies, flowed through his mind. Eyeballs exploded, and liquefied flesh oozed into fiery lava pits, leaving nothing but a collapsed pile of charred bones on the ground before moments later the victim's human form was resurrected in its entirety, and subjected to the same agonising fate again. Over and over, ad infinitum.
The name is Frank Greene and I live in the wonderful New York City. Right now I’m sitting here at Lou’s bar celebrating New Year Eve with a brandy. I’ve lived here my whole life, except when Uncle Sam decided he needed me in Vietnam right out of high school. You may ask what use the army has for a 6 foot tall, average white guy from Manhattan, who had no applicable skills. They sent me straight to infantry with the rest of the draftees. I eventually got injured and was sent home with an incurable limp.
From a very young age I’ve experienced and seen many unbelievable things, things that no child should ever see nor go through. One of these memories I remember as if it happened yesterday took place when I lived with my mother and her boyfriend. This man who I believed was kindhearted letting us move from our trailer into his apartment would go to be a person seared into my mind through fear and pain. After a few weeks he would start abusing my mother on a regular bases the same way he did to me. One night, he started striking my mother and even though I knew what could happen to me, I found the strength and tried to intervene.
She’s a “shadow on a shadowy horse.” She is the other half of the “Gentleman”. Big Mom seems to be a guide to the next generation. She is depicted as an unusually large woman who seems to have lived forever and has little bits of every tribe in her blood.

But I have to focus. I grab my bag and hurry out the door. In 20 minutes I arrive at an abandoned warehouse near the north border of the city. It was old and gave off creepy vibes like a horror movie setting. On an arch above the side entrance I could just barely make out the word ‘Freidhof’. I walk in cautiously but I knew there’d be no one there.

Ava was a quite girl living a quite life with dull brown hair and grey eyes but it that all changed when she decided to go out to a party with one boy, Evan the star football player with blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She wakes and it is the morning after the party, as she stretch’s she looks around and realizes that she isn’t in her room but in a hotel room; being curious she moved the covers of the bed and discovers she is in a white top covered with tiny red dots, it must have been from the party. Ava decided to look around the room and as she does that she finds a remote for the TV in the corner of the room but when she turned it on she saw something she wasn't expecting.

Ava Gardner was born on December 24, 1922, in Grabtown, North Carolina. She was the youngest out of six sibling, and was the most guarded out of all of her siblings. The small town girl grew up with the smell of tobacco in the air, and her playground being the dirt fields on her father’s farm. The beginning of her childhood was very happy, though when the great depression impacted the south in 1929 her life was turned upside down. Her older sibling move away to start their own lives; even her favorite oldest sister Bappie moved to New York with her husband. During this time Ava’s parents would argue every night about money problems, until her mother decide to move them to Newport News Virginia. Ava’s mother received a job teaching in Brogden,
Can she befriend the devil who is best friend's with her other three siblings to save her mother?
Ava’s gambling addiction follows a pattern of so many others. As soon as her Social Security check deposits in her account by six a.m. and by eight, she’s hurrying inside of Arizona Charlies, exhilaration and excitement written all over her face. Eyeballing the leathery relic on the nickel slots, standing back as he nervously pushes the keys to the slot machine and watches the images spin in the front of the machine. When it hits, she rushes to find an open multi-hand video poker game and sits her fanny in front of it, stuffing the machine full of nickels. Until around ten, when half-point bingo starts.
