Karen landed on the small cliff side of the fowl nestling grounds. She shook out her wings, careful not to disturb any flying creature in her near vicinity, and tucked them into the square of her back for them to rest. She was mostly accustomed to flying or gliding around in the sky but to keep up her cover she always walked like a normal plebeian. She got down on one knee persisting to unbuckle her boots. It was better to come back with bunions than half burned to death. With the war going on who

Epilogue Ahh. Now that I think about it, it has been 10 years since I had seen Granger and the others. To think that it has been this long. I remember when I meet Granger and the others. To think that they have all died and I’m the only one left of the original “book burners”. Sophie asked me “Guy? Are you okay?” with an expression of concern. “I’m fine. Why do you ask?” “Well you had this look of depression the whole time we were walking. Just a moment ago you let out a sigh. Is there anything

Peer Pressure You ever been peer pressured into something you regret? Let me tell you about the time when I was peer pressured to jump off a bridge. It was my sophomore year summer, the scene around me was spirit-lifting, clouds were latched to the unending sky. So a couple of buddies and I decided to go swimming, we searched far and wide and we wanted to jump rocks. So my friend Ivan suggested we go to Jones Creek. I have only heard of Jones Creek once or twice from people at school, but haven’t

Her face was blotchy from crying. ‘Why?’ Her voice was shaky and weak. It didn’t sound like the girl I knew. Her name was Zoe. She was blonde and beautiful and my best friend. She stumbled towards the edge of the building. ‘Wait!’ My voice was hoarse. Gingerly, I stepped forward, ‘Please, w-,’ my voice hitched, ‘why?’ ‘Why not?’ she snorted. Something

shirt, gripping the fabric and pulling it up and over his head, revealing his natural bronzed skin leaving, you had seen him shirtless before, but now it was breathtaking. You watched him eagerly as he pushed himself back off the bed, standing at the edge as his hands wandered down his torso almost teasingly to the button on his jeans, popping it open before pulling the zip down. "Joonie~" you practically whined at him, unable to withstand his teasing. Namjoon smirked at you as his hands began to

“That’s what it felt like this morning, because it’s their territory now, it’s Tom and Anna’s and Scott and Megan’s. I’m the outsider, I don’t belong here, and yet everything is so familiar to me” (65). I selected this quote because it indicates Rachel’s feeling of isolation from what she was once a part of. “I’m not beautiful, and I can’t have kids, so what does that make me? Worthless” (79). I selected this quote because it illustrates how luckless Rachel is. “I didn’t have a drink last night

Marsden and Astley. I speak quickly as I remove my gear, undressing to just my undershirt and shorts. “Weigh anchor! Keep moving the crew below deck, and wait for my signal to pull the anchor up! And finally, don’t do anything stupid!” I dive off the edge of my ship and into the dark water below. I have to swim fast to catch up to Kellan, who is only yards from the sirens. One of them reaches a clawed hand out towards him, but I grab him by the foot before he can reach her. She scowls as I drag Kellan

sure. That thought was in the back of his mind though. As he neared the chasm he extended his wings, the thin membranes pale from never using them. 10 feet from the edge, little T wanted to move forward 5 feet from the edge, little T needed to move forward 2 feet from the edge, little T needed to overcome this. 1 step from the edge, little T held a flicker of fear in his heart as he jumped with his eyes closed.
