A month has passed. Inside Cander’s room his alarm clock rings loudly at 5:30am. Cander’s outstretched arm comes swinging down to shut it off. He sits up to expose his bare back, a muscular man, he stands up to reveal his lean, defined appearance. He navigates through the darkened hallway, flicking a light on in a small adjacent room with a wooden floor. He grabs a jump rope from a nearby bench and begins jumping. Cander’s feet skip over the rope as it quickly taps on the hardwood floor. The rope is set aside, sweat starts to drip from his face as he pushes himself up off the ground. Switching from push-up to pull-up, Cander doesn’t waste a second, hopping up and down from one exercise to the next. After several minutes of …show more content…
A towering skyscraper rising high into the clouds, the reflection of the sunlight gives the building a glistened, heavenly shine. “Yes I’ll be able make it... Alright at 5... I’m on my way to work right now. Ok see you then.” Cander puts his phone back in his pocket, ignoring the multiple missed calls from his mother. The interior of the headquarters is more condensed in comparison to the sheer size of the exterior. Several thin metal desks are lined in rows, sleek grey metal chairs behind each one. The open office space is rather quiet. The few people at their desks are busy writing and typing. The only closed office space reserved for Nichols. Cander’s desk is organized; a single pen rests atop a stack of papers next to his computer monitor. “Cander!” Nichols waves Cander towards his half opened office door. “Another unfortunate event has occurred in the Pines. A fire has caused the death of seven people and the destruction of three apartments. Early reports there state that there were unauthorized Ichor products in the building as well.” “You believe the people who brought the Ichor products there may have caused the fire as well?” Cander asks. Nichols stands up and walks to the front of his desk and sits on the edge. “The buildings in the Pines; you never know what can happen with the wiring in those things. I just know that if it involves Ichor at all, we have to investigate.” “I might want to go down to one of our distribution centers, see if anyone

How far will one go to protect the ones he loves? To him his intentions are good, but others see no good in what he is doing. Clover, also known as Colin has always been trying to live up to his mother’s expectations. After his mother’s death, he becomes obsessed with the idea of a perfect family. He constantly feels that his mother is judging him through his mind. He was convinced that his mother could communicated with him even though she is dead. If she wanted him to do something he did it without hesitation. “I can be good enough. I'm as strong as Mother. No, I'm stronger. I am a stronger person, and I will not fail. I. Will. Not. Fail.” (215). He always felt that he wasn’t good enough so he kidnapped young girls to prove he was. He did
Hannelore brought several questions to Chandler’s attention. “What’s the status on the Young Christian Health Society? Anything new regarding the Conspiracy’s plot to design new weaponry? Do you know if Underground Intelligence is selling Anomalies in this Diocese?”
Ray Karner was a 35 year old man who shovels dead bodies into furnaces. He was the type of person who loved memories. Anything he thought was meaningful, he immediately jotted down in his diary. He had a daughter and a wife who he loved dearly. Many memories of them took up about half of his small pocket book. One after another, great days would pass by. But later he soon came to realize that things don’t always seem the way you want them to be.
“I’ll check their guard post one more time. Maybe they had to take a bathroom break or get some fruit, but I’ll find them.”
I came home from school just like any other day. It was around the end of the fourth grade and I was very exited for summer to be here! I noticed an unusual box sitting in the corner of the room but I paid it no attention as a rambled on to my mom, what I thought was a sectaculer day! Later my dad called my sister and I to the kitchen table to talk. The first thing that crossed my mind was, “oh Lord, what have we done now?” Instead, my dad pointed at the box in the corner. He told us to go look inside and tell him if we recognized where the things were from. As I look down into the box, I recognize the pictures of my family and the past fathers day gifts my sister or I had given my dad over the years that he always had sitting on his desk at
"Let's head back to the road. A cold ale and a warm hearth await us in Northpoint," he said using his staff to leverage himself up the slope. "Mayhap, we will find some clues amongst the town folk."
There was nothing left anymore. The once vivacious city laid in shambles. Rows of concrete, gravel streets, and deserted souls engrossed the city. After the tremors and separation, the Others thought the ocean had swallowed us. Little did they know, we were thriving on our own. Then, they uncovered us. In order to stay hidden, we resorted to doing cyclic jobs in dark blocks of dirt walls. We could not longer escape the four perimeters of our lives: those four walls.
“Someone has to bring these men to justice, and this town could use some of its money back... I also reckon there will be enough for reward if you help me.” Imala eyed the man.
In the book Legend there are a lot of problems with poverty. For example in the book Day’s family barely have any money to feed them then Eden gets the Plague and it costs even more money to get the antidote. The government does not like poor people in the sectors. Now the government is putting the plague in the meat so they buy the plague so the government gets the money and the poor people lose money. As you can see from this short paragraph the poor people suffer from not having enough money.
“Nobody has ever survived a mission to the inside. What makes you think we can manage it this time?”
Day 20. Hell is the way of living after being in this battle ,and what i have seen after these twenty days has changed my life forever. We have managed to take the village about 10 miles out of normandy after fighting for 2 days taking out a small german armoured division consisting of panzer 4s and about 20 infantry. This battle was one of the worst, hitler's buzzsaw or the mg42 blew my cousins jacobs limbs away, I had to watch him die. I know I could not do anything or else I was going to be ripped up. Thankfully we were able to call in airsupport i remember hearing the stupid grouts yelling ¨ Es ist der Jugg laufen!!¨.
Today I can finally see my surroundings even sometimes my mother's eyes. Just 35 days ago I couldn't do anything. I ate, slept, slept some more, woke up and ate again.. I sleep day in and day out in my mom's pouch. It's very warm and cozy I have a lot of time to think and develop. I spend many hours or even a day in total darkness. Every once in awhile I’ll come out of mom’s pouch. I feel the bright sun on my fur, and smells that come from the forests. I love seeing the new surroundings every day. I hate being in the dark cramped space. Mom tells me I’m very different than her other children. I still don't know if that means or if it's even good or bad. My nose is just starting to come through. Mommy says I look a lot like my father. Which I wouldn’t know because he left right after mating with mom. I still am very tiny though, but it's a long process.
The voice in my head, normally so calm and controlled, was screaming at me to run. That was exactly what was going through my five year old mind when I walked around the hallway corner to see my mother being beat to her death by my biological father, Brax Magnus. As I tried so hard to stay and defend my mom, I could not help but panic and so I ran. I ran so far until I seen a small gas station. I went inside to find a phone, but realized I did not know who to call. The cashier, seeing that I was crying and looked panic, walked over to me.
