In this post-apocalyptic world, it is very difficult to survive while continuing to remain a good person. The importance of the separation of good and bad people is shown through a possible theme, the conflict between good and evil.

all I could comprehend. The drivers floorboard and dashboard met with my feet wedged in between being crushed. It did not hurt, my body was numb. My mind was running wild. What just happened to me? In the distance, on that straight, two-way, narrowed road, I saw cars and trucks driving by completely oblivious of how I felt. I tried to yell out for help but my voice was unheard. All I could do was remain where I was and wait for someone to help me from this horrible situation or wait to die. The frustrating
Max My heart thundered under my breast. I was sure my parents could hear me, asleep in their beds inside the two story, gray-siding clad house on Sunnyvale Court. Rain puddled at my feet, soaking the dirt of a thousand walks into my off-brand tennis shoes. I usually enjoyed the rain. I liked the feel of walking barefoot in puddles in the grass and the smell of rain mixed with pine trees. Tonight, the air was cool and the rain was crisp against my skin for an early August in South Carolina. I would

He inched his way over to the second guard and bent down, taking his firearm as well. After he stood back up, he let two more rounds go in the ceiling as he yelled for everyone to be quiet and stay down. He took a deep breath and swallowed hard as the hair on the back of his neck began to stand up. If he made one false move, one mistake could ruin this entire mission so he had to be careful, keep his eyes open, and be quick. He ran up to the counter, yelling for the bank tellers to get on the
going the same speed. As I drove around a curve, going a little too fast for this particular twist in the road, the right front tire of my jeep caught the gravel on the side of the road. The roads were slick from rain and applying the brakes caused me to hydroplane, then lose control and head into the ditch on the right side of the road. Scared to death, I jerked the wheel to get back onto the road, which I should’ve never done. Turning the steering wheel too hard,

until I found a very silent road. Nobody was going out and only several lamps were turned on. I started to feel frightened. I stopped and thought again, I planned to come back to my uncle’s house but it was too late. My house was about several meters away, and I had to pass the road because the road is the shortcut to my house. I encouraged myself, “I have to be brave!” Slowly, I started to walk through that frightening road. I saw to the left and to the right. The road was like a dead city. I could
