Short Story

“No need to get all ‘cop to the rescue’ here. I just got lost. Isn’t that right Miss…” he said looking at Dr. Flanagan in reminder of what they talked about.

“Keep that thing in your pants Kane, and get your head out of the gutter. Something you wanted or you just here to see if I’m still alive?”

I managed to stay close to Louis during our childhood. The both of us slowly started to transition into actual people. I lost the braces, Louis lost the pimples, and we both started to dress like kids our age. Louis was handsome; he always had this long hair that he straightened every morning. He told the girls that he didn’t do his hair, but I knew otherwise. Louis had many girlfriends in

The stretch was facing the ocean on one side, and dense greenery of the island on the other. He and I stepped off of the ship and swam our way to shore. After years and years of strenuous workouts to win in all the water races at Greece, it all came down to one race that determined my life and journey ahead. Without a word we stepped up to the water, for it is a well known process of start. My adversary and I stood up to the start while another guard walked out and took his position on the shore next to the water to announce the start. He signaled the start with a loud, absolute “Ready!” and soon after emitted a shrill screech from his throat. I leaped into the water and stroked with all my might, clawing at the water with a touch of gracefulness to propel me forward. I gave swift glance to the right but did not see the guard next to me. I momentarily wonded whether he is far behind me or far ahead of me, but there was no way to tell as the extra looking will slow me. I felt the end come near, my muscles begin to burn, a soreness that seemed to make my arms feel heavier. Then my arm hit the wall. I took my head out of the water and immediately looked around, and was surprised by what I saw. Aegean guards standing, lining the water's edge, they all said at

The span between the surface of the water and the top of the cliff was three hundred feet high. The profile of sharks could just barely be seen circling in the murky brown water. My toes hung off of the side of the cliff loosening pebbles from their resting place and sending them plummeting to the shark infested cauldron. My swimsuit seeped frigid droplets of water down my legs. When my friends shouted up to me their voices became whispers barely audible as the wind screamed across my ears. I felt as if I was about to collapse from anxiety.

"Okay." Logan said disappointedly as he jumped off the front of the boat anyway. I guess for him it would just have to do for now. I climbed back up onto the cushion and jumped in from the back. Feeling the cool water bring down my body temperature from the blazing heat was incredible. I swam to the side of the boat meeting up with

Castiel fiddles with the zipper on his computer bag. The woman next to him huffs, then finally slides out of her seat when a gentleman gives her the space to enter the aisle. No one bothers to do the same for Castiel, but that’s fine. He’ll wait. The longer he can put this off, the better.

“Well, a young hooded man called the hospital saying stuff about two men passed out in a car, and one of them was wounded. If you’re looking for your friend, he was in the cot beside yours. He’s been awake for awhile, wondering about how you were doing. If you want, I can tell him that he can come in here now,” she stated. I just gave a curt nod in reply.

The inside of the tent is bigger than I expected. Tables filled with maps are scattered everywhere. Armor and swords litter the corners. I scan the tent amazed. Movement catches my eye and I realize we aren’t alone. A man is sitting in a chair behind the biggest table in the tent. On the table is a map, my eyes skim over it but I do not recognize any of the land features.

“We don’t have enough evidence yet to hold Gary, but there are still many unanswered questions. I want to check some other details before we release him. We’ll see you later. When you get your answers, would you mind sending me a copy?” Detective Ward Asked.

I've come to know these words well, as it's my favorite fight song. Ironwood has asked for me to do his dirty work. I guess his “specialists” aren't special enough. I'm about decline, of course, when Ironwood starts filling me in. Atlas was under threat of a Yeti Grim, as tall as a mountain, and everyone they sent in failed to take it down, so naturally, it was my turn. That’s my job. I’m a consulting specialist. As the only one with the title, it's sure is a pain for them if I turn down a job. I’m a wild card. A freelance that travels the world looking for the best fights and most interesting adventures. One thing I try to never get mixed up in is the world's troubles. I don't care about “making peace” or “stopping evil”. I can leave that

“STOP IT!! I’m going first!” James yelled. “You two just stay up here. If I’m not back in ten minutes, go get help. I have a bad feeling...”

3 young boys were running around the field was near where they live in the satellite sector. One of golden blonde hair another of fire orange hair and the last of black and yellow hair named in order Jack Atlas, Crow Hogan, and Yusei Fudo. The three boys were playing tag and soon as Crow was it the other two ran for the hills. Yusei was running then he saw cards that fallen on the ground thinking his fell out of his pocket he then picked one up it happened to be the duel monsters card Chaos Sorcerer “This isn't one of my cards” he thinks “So whos is it” he said looking around

For the first fifteen years of my life, I never referred to myself as a firm believer in love at first sight. People often tossed around the word love like it was nothing, but I knew that I had never truly been in love before. This all changed about a month before my sixteenth birthday when I fell in love with the windy city. In May of 2015, the band took a four-day trip to Chicago. I was thrilled for the excursion because I had only traveled outside of Kansas a few times. Those vacations were to the beach, which is nothing like the bustling metropolis of Chicago. I had never truly experienced the city life before, so I was beyond ready for this new adventure.

From the highest we were about 8-9 meters above water so it was about two seconds in the air. I had not been nervous about jumping for the whole trip but now I was starting to feel the pressure. Ben told us that he can jump first since he is the experienced one and everyone agreed. As Ben prepared to jump I suddenly got a bit nauseous, suddenly I was very afraid of jumping. But in the middle of thinking that Ben jumped off the edge without hesitation and disappeared under the surface. He came up swiftly and yelled “The water’s perfect! I did not even hit the bottom”. That reassured me that it was no danger and soon after Alexander jumped in and after him Abbie. I asked Adrian if he wanted to jump or if I should and he replied that he can jump first. Adrian jumped and now it was my turn to jump, and I was really feeling the adrenaline rush. I climb up from my sitting spot and walk over to the cliff edge and look down. Down nine meters was the surface. I looked at the spot where I was going to try to land on. To get some motivation I ask Alexandra to count down from three and she gladly
