In ancient times, a huge rock of fire collapsed in what was once called “Earth”. The Earth then separated into three parts in different spaces. These three parts were then named unique names, and a new age of three different kingdoms arrived. But there was a little unfolded truth behind the kingdoms’ powers, and a mess started occurring. All of these troubles will rest in peace if the unknown maiden stood against them. But unluckily, nobody knew where she was hiding, and brave knights from the three known kingdoms started the search. “Mom, I’m going to school”, Mariena said while she closed the front door of her house. Mariena started walking until someone whispered in her ears. She stopped and looked back, but nobody was there, only cars. “It’s still dark, maybe I shouldn’t have left the house”, she whispered to herself, “No, I must be the wind, that’s all”. Once she turned back again, she met Oscar, her classmate. “Sup! Up this early?” he said. “Yeah, we live in the city’s side, remember?” she replied. They started walking again, while talking about their homework. As the sun rose, Mariena and Oscar reached their school. Students already arrived and everyone looked excited for some reason. Mariena looked down and started walking calmly with no words nor greetings. As soon as she reached her class, the bell rang and classes started. Time passed, and once again, the bell rang. “Hey, Mariena! No sight of you anywhere today too. ”, Lisa said. “Oh yea, I was sorta busy today too, exams are on doors you know”. “Wait, does this mean that you’re not going to Jay’s party?” Lisa suddenly asked. “No, I don’t feel like it”, Mariena calmly answered. “But everyone is talking about it. It’s gonna be a blast!! Come on, you have to go”. “So... ... middle of paper ... ... looked at her mother and smiled. After that she sat in her seat, and the car started moving again. A few meter away, they stopped beside an open restaurant. Both of them got out of the car. “It’s a simple yet beautiful place, suits you, right?”, Mariena’s mother smiled. “Yes mom, anywhere is fine”, Mariena answered. They sat in the restaurant and waited for the food they ordered. “Well well well, in table 5 we meet. Long time no see, Hellebore. I can see that you’re in my service this time”, a server said. Mariena’s mother looked at the back and said, “Oh, hello there, Lucifer. Didn’t expect to see you again in such a place”. “And I can see another fallen one here, but a unique one I see”, Lucifer replied. “I have to agree at the unique part, she really is. Thank you!”, Mariena’s mother replied. “Fallen one? What do you mean by fallen?” Mariena asked confusedly.
There is a slight glimmer of hope when the school year ends and the girls all receive their report cards. They stand eagerly in the hallway, none of them can break their gaze at the slips of paper in their teacher’s hands. Pashtana finishes 15th in her class and in this moment looks forward to a new year in the 8th grade. Unfortunately, Pashtana and her family were living off of $7 a week, a dollar to spend a day. She soon got married to her cousin and has not been back to school since their last day.
The Graveyard Book is a tale about Nobody (Bod) Owens, a human boy who was raised in a graveyard. Bod came to the graveyard as an infant, escaping his death by The Man Jack. Adopted by the ghosts of the deceased Mr. and Mrs. Owens, Bod is raised among the dead who inhabit the graveyard. Taught by the spirits and given Freedom of the Graveyard, he learns special talents like “fading” in order to live in the graveyard comfortably and undetected, safe from the man Jack, who is still searching for him. On his journey through childhood and adolescence, he befriends a human girl named Scarlett, helps the spirit of a witch, opens and subsequently escapes a ghoul-gate, dances the Macabray (a dance of the dead), and even attends school outside of the
It was a sunny day with a sweet aroma of blooming tulips. The sunlight glittered on their faces as the breeze rattled the chestnut tree above. There was an occasional giggle as they talked, but there was also a hint of discomfort and awkwardness between them as they peeked at each other’s face and recoiled when the other looked up. When the bell rang twice, I saw them say goodbye and walk away from each other. In the darkness of the crowd, a glimmer flashed into my eyes from Hannah’s cheeks.
Arriving at Lacey’s house I walk to the backdoor letting myself into the house. Lacey was putting on tanning lotion in the kitchen, “Lacey,” I called to her, “my mom wants me to pick up snacks for the beach, do you want to go into town with me?”, “Sure,” she replied, “do you mind if my cousin comes with us?”, “Of course I don’t mind,“ I answered, “but we have to get moving, my dad only left me the car to use ‘til noon.”
When Renee Gilmore's mother died, she used some of the money her mom left her and moved to California, hoping to get her dream job; acting.
"Do you think they'll like me?" Ruby asked restless. Bod gripped her hand tightly they walked through the streets that Bod used to watch the other children play on. "They'll love you." She smiled widely like when you give a little kid a piece of candy. It wasn't easy for Bod to tell her about his childhood, he had to be very selective about the people he told. Every step closer they got closer to the graveyard Bod got feel his heart bounding in his chest get louder and faster. His legs felt like jelly. He wasn't having second thoughts just nervous about what he would see. After all it had been ten years, would there even be a graveyard standing? What if had been turned into a school? What if she thinks I've been lying the whole time? These were all thoughts running through his head, he had battled ghouls and corrupt business men and even defeated The Jacks surely he can show off his soon to be wife, beautiful
"Finally here..." I sighed when I saw the cafe shop in the distance. I tucked my phone back into my jacket pocket and sped up a bit towards it. School had ended just a few minutes ago. After saying goodbye to Lina and Jason, I made my way to the cafe as usual. When I got there, I held the door and waited a few seconds for an old lady to walk in before stepping inside. The heat from the store made me shiver. "Thank you.” the old lady said. I smiled and pulled my hood down. After about 10 minutes of getting raspberry iced tea and conversing with a couple classmates that were there as well, I walked up the stairs to the 2nd floor. I looked around before my eyes landed on an empty seat at a table where a boy sat. Hello again… Taking in a breath, I made my way to that table and the empty seat diagonally across from him.

...me to school a few minutes early. She was wearing her usual, a T-shirt and jeans. As she walked through the hallway she didn’t hear anymore mean names. Nobody tried to make her fall, or embarrass her at all. Instead she heard a “Hi” or “Hello” from every few people she passed. She said hi back to all of them. Why is everyone being so nice today? She thought. She met up with Zack and his friends, who had all, began to like her. The day went on as normal, at least normal to everyone but Analise, who loved her new life.
Carissa woke up the next morning and carelessly stumbled out of bed. She looked in the mirror and thought no wonder no one’s really talked to me, I look like crap. Despite her morning thoughts, she and everyone else knew how gorgeous she actually was. With her hair done, face fresh, clean, made-up, and new clothes to show off, she headed out the door and jumped into her car. She sped down to the nearest Starbucks, just like she did every morning. She finally got to school, still getting used to how different things looked compared to her old one. Carissa was still not used to her dad’s line of work, even though it was the fourth time his company had transferred him.
As we enter a cemetery, we might be filled with fear. We may think of dark nights and ended lives. What is a scary and dreadful place is a very meaningful place for me. This place is so meaningful to me because my grandparents on my father's side are buried there. Cemeteries are important to bringing perspective and serenity, because they bring us a connection to where we came from, help us realize the delicacy of life, and they help us to relax a little bit through their calmness. I have had so many things impact my life and they all seem to end up in the same place. Cemeteries are not the dreaded and scary things of superstitions. They are holding places for memories and faith.
The Cemetery-Personal Narrative I remember it like it was yesterday. Infact, it was yesterday. My parents were leaving for a couple of days, so I could do anything I wanted. I called Amy, a girl I know from school. After we got off the phone, I knew it was time.
Pam grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the door of the eighth grade building at our private school in Maine. We skipped outside and down the steps to the small yard in front of the thin, three-story structure. Snow was falling gently, the first flakes of the season. Pam looked at me and grinned, eyes wide and shining. Without a word, she spread her arms, closed her eyes, turned her face to the sky, and began to spin. Her feet moved in tiny, circular steps, and he...
The mausoleum at Halicarnassus was the very great mausoleum tombstone of one Maussollos, the ruler of Caria, one of the provinces of the vast Persian Empire, who also served as a Governor or Satrap of the King of the Persian Empire between 377 and 353 BC (Peter and Mark, 1988). This great tomb monument was so gigantic in size going by the ancient building standards and extremely lavish were the various sculptured adornments or decorations that in next to no time the building was being recognised in the Ancient World as one of the Seven Wonders of these Ancient times (Peter and Mark, 1988). Ever since the Roman times the word mausoleum, has always been a generic term used in reference to any vast or gigantic tomb monument (Juan, 2005). In today’s world this is what most people would consider as a large-scale house built of marble meant to house a deceased person’s remains (Juan, 2005).
