Letting go of Rebecca, so they both could enter the Humvee. At the same time Kat’s Hummer’s engine started up. Looking into the rearview mirror Rachel saw the Ranger and Kat was getting in their Hummer. The sounds of the Apaches, Rachel knew they would be in a matter of moments. “Punch it.” Rachel said as she the two choppers appearing in the distance. The two Hummers left the area, when two pairs of rockets slammed into the deserted building. The building exploded in a huge ball of fire, which cause both hummers to rock in the wake. The two Apaches, flew past the two feeling Hummers, and circling around, they opened up with their Vulcan Gatling guns. The rain of bullets hammered the remaining zombies, tearing them to shreds. …show more content…
Turing around she spotted the three other Humvees and her people were musing about. Getting out of the Humvee, Rachel walked over to Keyes, and asked “how is the Marine?” Turning around Keyes, replied “I am not sure boss, but the doctors will take care of her.” Nodding Rachel looked around at her people and to try and get their spirits up she said “there are a few restaurants around here. Go get some food in you. You all deserve it.” Keyes cocked his head right and questioned “we want to know about our team mate. And we do not want to leave until we know.” Rachel knew exactly what he meant, she decided to wait for news about the Marine woman, whom she never knew. And resolved to get to know her and the rest of the team. Taking a seat on the Hummer’s hood, she noticed that it felt warm on her butt. But she did not care, soon Rebecca came over and sat next to her. Chapter
Campbell describes in detail each stage of the archetypal Hero's Journey, reiterating at several points that the archetype has both a clear basis and a clear echo in the actual living existence of each human being. These spiritual echoes are awakened by metaphor, the various uses of which Campbell also describes in detail. The ultimate purpose of both myth and metaphor, Campbell maintains, is to awaken in each individual human being an awareness of the spiritual aspect of life. This awakening, Campbell maintains, is the first step in the necessary journey away from resistance to the various inevitable physical and spiritual truths associated with being human (i.e., death and suffering) and toward an embracing of them as part of the universal
There are many novels that use the plot diagram called the Hero’s Journey. The Hero’s Journey is comprised of twelve sections that move along the story of adventure.

In this book, Jerome, a black twelve year old boy, is shot and killed by an officer.
“I will miss you too, Carrie” she said, releasing her arms and pushed me away gently. Her eyes locked mine. “Promise me, if you have a problem, don’t hesitate to call me. I am not a stranger, so aren’t you” she emphasized her last words by nodding her
“Lloyd!” Seph, who up to this point had been blocked out by the wall of soldiers surrounding me, came running up next to me, but seemingly didn’t know how to continue his thoughts as he paused and I could tell he was having an internal debate for all of second before saying. “Welcome home.” Despite everything I couldn’t help but snort in laughter. “I would say it’s nice to be home, but unfortunately things seems to have only gotten worse in the time I was away.”
With a huff, she continued past Matt’s car and then George’s and headed for the entrance. A man inside approached the glass doors and let her in. “You’re with Caleb?” he verified.
The Captain turned to face her crew and straightened her shoulders. "Space decided to trap us with Commander Vengeance. Whoever finds a solution gets a raise. If no one does, you're all going to be fired. OUT OF THE AIRLOCK." She added a scowl for extra effect and stomped out of the
“Aubrey, what’s going on?” Dylan questioned her, with a look of utter curiosity on his face, even though his fists were clenched.
He stood there contemplating on what to do. He didn’t want to start all this mess again, but the pressure to be part of the group took over. Luca decided to follow and hopped in the car. Isaiah took the wheel and Luca sat reluctantly in the back seat. As the car started and with a few revs they were off, flying down the main street of Bay Grove.
“Rachel, calm down,” Jasiel told me. “We’re not going to stay here forever. Someone will help us.

Joker sped past the turnoff to the warehouse until he could see down the opposite side of the hill. Trey used the radio to get the other vehicles moving after seeing the road in front of them was empty. Back at the parking lot, after Joker peeled off to check the warehouse drive, he watched the plow strike down the last of the goons after making forty mile an hour turns to line up on each target. The bodies were
“What’s going on Tre,” Mike, my best friend, sat behind me and said. ‘What you doing. Checking out the new transferred females.”
Dean and I practically flew out of the humvee, slamming the doors closed in our wake. Amber and Scott joined us, the former giving me an odd look as she shut her own door.
Anger faded and romance bloomed. Quinn called out “All abroad!” The red car was added and off they went.
“You do not need to worry about me, Rach. I am not planning on going anywhere.” She said as she fastened the last pigtail. She had to admit, that Rachel looked much hotter with her in pigtails. Plus she had a much better body, outside of that disgusting cigarette burn scar. Remembering that the day she had gotten that, she was sick. Had she heard about what had happened, she could have helped kick those boys’ collective asses. Thinking “no one messes with my girl, and walks away unharmed.”
