The Strawberry Blonde

Moreover, no one knows exactly how Sylvia Everett and her Jackbooter crew managed to produce a large amount of goods. There are speculations and possible theories, but no one’s been able to make a reasonable conclusion. Some say that this Jackbooter crew is highly respected by the rest of the student body, as well as the boys from a nearby all-boys boarding school, and that some of them were willing to devote what little time they had to produce the goods. Others claim that the Dweller city “New

came in by helicopter along with the daily resupply shipment out of Chi Lai. A tall big-boned blonde." She came from the sky like it was no big deal, to see her boyfriend Fossie. A girl coming into a war among the rations and medicine. She was barely a woman, only 17, and when she came to join them at the medical camp she was described as, "had long white legs and blue eyes and a complexion like strawberry ice cream. Very friendly too." It was the "very friendly" part that should have been the

that have cheetah prints, zebra prints, and even polka dots! Oh my gosh, this room really needs some work done. The receptionist checks us in, and let me tell you, she looks like she lives in this room. Her outfit is atrocious. Black flats, frizzy blonde hair, a lime green turtleneck with a polka dotted vest, and even a striped black and white skirt! And just to top it off, bright pink lipstick on her two front teeth. The doctor calls us back, “Crystal?” We walk back with the doctor, oh man, this

She was a slip amongst the thrashing crowd. As people brushed up against her, their clothes and skin transformed into the sweetest of electric shocks, kisses she could not resist. Already, she knew her pupils must be growing to eclipse the full moon her eyes reflected. It didn’t matter who was next to her, as long the movement and music didn’t stop, never stopped. Beats resonated in ways unimaginable, causing her breath to hitch and mind to go blank. The most blissful of blanks. Should she

“Sweetheart? Could you possibly not glare at Joanie like that?” My father asked cautiously in the middle of dinner. I hadn’t even noticed that I was doing it, it just became a habit after awhile. I looked down at my plate, still full with spaghetti crowding around my small portion of meatballs. Not that I was going to eat any of it. Usually, I would have finished it all by now, but that was before my mother’s spaghetti recipe had been contaminated by Joanie’s attempt to recreate it. Though it had

Fleeter loaded his things into his sack, and got his weapons ready to be brought along. His bow and arrow wouldn't be necessary, but he decided otherwise. His dagger, inside the sheath, was safely placed in the pocket of his long, black cloak for emergencies, and his sword was, of course, always by his side. His loyal, black horse, Andrin, was neighing, seemingly immpatient. Fleeter stroked him, in an attempt to comfort his desperate friend. "We're in for a long journey, my friend

through my head; the image of the fire woman. Joan, the fire woman, was an older lady, probably about sixty years old. I can tell because she had wrinkles that began to possess her slim, dark-skinned body. Her hair was an unnatural shade of strawberry blonde, in a style much like Dora’s, straight and cut short so that it barely reached her freckled shoulders and bent, slightly inward toward the base of her chiseled jawline. Her bangs glided, gently in a straight line across her hidden forehead, a

The world is a terrible, unfair, biased place run by the Stars. Constellations have taken over every aspect of people’s lives. Anyone could tell who was in favor of the Stars and who wasn’t. The most loved by the Stars are granted health, beauty, an abundance of riches, and constant protection. The despised have the worst “luck” with their boils, warts, disease, and hunger. Luckily, my best friends and I are somewhere in the upper middle class. We aren’t much to look at, but our health is in relatively

I sit in bed staring across my room and through the window at the pitch-black sky containing too many stars and only one moon. The dreamcatcher above my head dangles low and the feathers brush against my cheeks. It is a gift my great-grandmother made and it has both of my favorite colors on it. The feathers are pink and the web is light blue. The ring around the web is made from sticks. Legend has it that they catch all of your bad dreams, but only the good ones know how to pass through. I truly
