On a stormy night in Chicago, a woman gave birth to a beautiful little redheaded girl. She and her husband, two great scientists and eminent professors of the University of Chicago, held their child happily, hoping she would one day follow their path. As the mother was resting, her husband’s mother arrived, eager to see her grand-daughter. However, seeing the redheaded baby with a small birthmark on her upper lip, the profoundly Christian and superstitious woman saw a sign of the devil. In a moment

In the accident the train slides off the tracks, crashing into the lake and killing all the passengers.

In Tom Conoboy’s Writer’s Blog, he describes Fingerbone Lake as, “home

she cursed. "Frank's been taken out." She heard a twig snap, then a familiar voice said her name. "Sorry, Hazel." Her head snapped up, and she saw Leo's impish face as another fireball appeared in his hand. She let out a bloodcurdling scream, raised her spatha, and charged. Leo spun out of the way, slamming a fireball at their feet. They both sailed away, and as they landed, Hazel heard a loud roar that sounded inhuman. The hairs on the back of her neck raised. The Hulk had joined the game. Annabeth's

She didn’t remember much from the trip back to the Canyon. She’s pretty sure that she caused more then half a dozen trees to fall, and took off some of the siding of a house that she got a little to close too. No serious damage done. As she got closer, the wind sensed her urgency and moved faster. “He can’t have that much of a head start.” She thought “You were right!” She called out, “I should have gone back, are you happy now? Tell me what I need to do!” The voice remained silent. Unable to

Without a care, or even knowing what she had the past night before. Amanda becomes so drunk that “simple task of swiping her finger” across the screen is “too taxing.” The adults “laugh and joke” with Amanda, “offering her more shots” of vodka-infused Jell-O and more Fireball whisky.

This artwork, the Starry Night, was drawn by a well-known painter called Vincent van Gogh in 1989. The medium of this artwork is oil in canvas. This is an expressive painting combined with van Gogh's memories and imagination.
