Personal Narrative: Getting Ready For Wood

I responded to Magnolia Wood Lodge in reference to a dirorderly call. Upon arrival, I made contact with Nathan Mosley. Mosley stated that one of the residence(Cedrice Barnes) was being very un cooperative and attempting to hit them with closed fist. Nathan Mosley, Angela Lewis and Cessiley Colwell, were all victims of the situation. Officer attempted to walk Barnes back to his room. Officers ended up getting Barnes back in his room, which was room 11. Officer's then talked with Barnes and explained the issue with him. Barnes started being un compliant and started throing closed fist at the employes. I then pinned Barnes agaist the wall and pulled out my pepper spray. When I released Barnes, he pushed me. Barnes was then told to placed his

The parents were fed up with our wild animal like behavior and told us to play downstairs in the basement. We all went down the basement and started to playing tag. Therefore, we had to be careful playing because the basement was not finished at the time and had metal studs where the walls are supposed to go and the concrete floors that are now hardwood. When everybody went upstairs because they were as tired as an olympic runner after a meet my Dad came down to fix a light bulb. He used a ladder to fix it so he could reach and when he was done he went upstairs so I was the only one in the basement. I wanted to be like my Dad so I decided to climb the ladder. I was at the top when my foot slipped off the ladder. Somehow I was able to turn my body around and grab onto a pipe to stop myself from falling. I felt the pipe starting to brake so I decided to swing on to the metal stud next to me because I was sure that was going to hold me. When my

I went through the cemetery because it is said the demons who burned the church down found home in the dead bodies that are six feet under. I went with my 16 year old sister which was a mistake. I started walking we heard noise in the trees, I just assumed it was a fox or raccoon or something, it scared the hell out of my sister and she latched to my arm and was so close I

It was almost dark, my uncle called the cops to report a missing person statement. The cops were so mean. They legit told my uncle that they would not go out and search for him until he goes missing for 10 days. We had no other options but wait and pray. It was dead quiet, silence filled the room. My uncle heard a knock on the door. We all thought it was my dad. My mom and uncle rushed to the door to see if it was him. When my uncle opens the door, a stranger was standing there. He looked worried and like didn't know how to start talking or introduce himself. My uncle asked what he wanted and the man was like “ Is this Bassam’s brother?”. Bassam was my

I was outside around 8:00 or 9:00 P.M. It was already dark outside my dad had just arrived home from work. She called me and my brother inside for dinner. I remember going inside and just sitting down to get ready to eat when all of a sudden a series of gun shots erupted down the street.

One lovely day my dad, brother, uncle, my cousin, and I were hanging out at lake watauga and taking ride out on the pontoon boat and tubing. We were talking on our pontoon boat at the dock and then it started to rain. Then I hear a big train coming fast at me. It was so scary because my brother cousin and I were freaking out. We sprinted up to our yurt, and my uncle hid in a shed a my brother and cousin were in the bathroom scared while my dad and I were trying to hatch down the yurt. Then all the rain lifted and there was a wall of rain and all the power went out. It was really frightening my dad tried closing the doors but they wouldn't close and he was thrown back from all the wind. So once he shut the doores he couldn't lock

Braap! There was a series of tornadoes and my friend and I were working on my dirt bikes until a decent thunderstorm came. James and I took all the tools inside and the dirt bikes. We both thought that we should call it a day so we went inside and fell asleep. All of a sudden during the night we got an alert from the weather on our phones. It said TORNADO WARNING. We went outside and locked up everything. I told him to go into my tornado shelter so we can actually sleep.

I ran upstairs crying filled with terror. I come to the top of my steps and turn to see my dad holding my 7 year old sister Alli crying in his arms. It looked like my dad had just seen a ghost, because he was so scared. Considering we were all extremely scared we all slept in our parent’s room. Next thing you know my dad got a text from our neighbors Stacey and Tyler saying our tree was on

One early morning at six o'clock in the morning I was riding to my deer stand to go hunt and it was dark when I was on my way to my deer stand. Well I got to where I park to go to my deer stand. So I'm walking up to my deer stand and I get in it and sit and wait on a deer. Well it's about eight o'clock and I have only saw one deer and it was to far to shoot so it was about ten thirty now and I saw this enormous buck walk out. So about ten minutes later that buck ambled out in the lane and my dad has already told me not to shoot this buck because it was little.

Christmas morning 3 years ago I woke up extraordinarily early because it was Christmas. Walking into the hallway, I saw the Christmas tree all lit up with tons of presents under it all different shapes and sizes. I went to my brother’s bedroom muttering saying, “Hey wake up you sleepyhead.” Then we went downstairs and woke up our parents jumping on them. My mom’s growled “What time is it you bunch of crazy people?”

One night My mom, her friend Jared, and I were driving up a mountain to go camping and at like 1:30 in the morning and I was halfway asleep in the backseat squished and then are car just starts rolling backwards and I jumped up and asked “ Why are we rolling backwards?” then all of of us started screaming “AHHHHHHHHHH!!” we were going really fast and all of the coolers and a portable grill landed on my head and it was terrifying. Befor I knew it the car was completely on its side in a ditch and we could barely open the door because of gravity and I had to climb out the window. On the way down we took out at least 3 trash cans and like four mailboxes. It took at least four hours for the tow truck to come and in those four hours liken three

that!” She opened the door and a big cloud of smoke hit her in the face.

I started to walk towards the tiny door as the flashing light got brighter and brighter. Clutching my hands on the knob, a dark large shadow appeared. Walking closer, I had found the flashlight that was shining brighter than the sun but suddenly a loud noise appeared in the distance of the basement. I knew right then that I needed to get out of my basement, so I went to go get a snack. Later that day my mom wanted me to get some cans of green beans from the basement.

Early one morning I woke up earlier than normal. I was 5 when this thing happened and this how I learned the true meaning of fear. My brother said that we were going some were great it made me jump for joy in the living room. I jolted up the stairs to my parent’s room of course my dad and mom were asleep.

It was a nice sunny day in the Ocotillo wells desert. There were six families camping with us in six different Rvs. All of us little kids were playing around were playing around in the sand. Some of the parents wanted to go for a ride on there quads while the other half of the parents stayed and watch us. So my parents and the other adults left while we stayed at the camp site. Time passed and our parents are still gone, about an hour later we see my dad alone riding his quad fast toward us. He stopped and sprang off his quad and rushed in the trailer. "Wheres mom, and everyone else"? I said. Mom drove off a cliff and crashed. My mom was rushed to the hospital and was taken by a helicopter.
