Awakening Frozen silence of a winter's dawn, matted brown pine needles peaking out of a powdery white carpet frosted trees sagging from the weight of last night's snowfall. Large flakes fell from heaven as if the angels were having a pillow fight and the goose down fell to our humble homes. Though beautiful the snow was cold and sharp as it bit at our fingers and the wind kissed the people's cheeks in the stunning forest. Like a wolf the snow bit at our fingers with its sharp icy teeth. How rare it is for the first time for such a still place to be when we ourselves are so busy in our minds that there is somewhere which can only listen. The whip slapped the huskies, pulling the sleds into motion. They stopped in the forest for rest by a homeless …show more content…
All in simple perfection. They wanted to stay longer, but when the daughter of the family peeked outside it was raining. The rain poured down from the sky and met the ground with a calming noise, as if it was the sweet nectar of life that made Mother Earth radiate. Then, she asked, "Mother, father, are we supposed to leave right now?" They made no reply because of the distraction of the delicious, mouth-watering taste of turkey. They never taste food like these except seafood. Instead, the mrs. Everfree asked nonchalantly, "Fauna, dear maybe you should get more branches for the fire. And then get over here, or else we'll eat your plate." Fauna Everfree stuck her tongue out and leave. Surprisingly, the forest was not raining nor wet. Perhaps, it was a hallucination. She climbed on an enormous tree while taking bits of branches and stared at the shooting stars and to the constellations, that her eyes can create with the stars its truly a magical effect. She thought, "The perfect night sky, it looks like its covered by a dome and the stars appear to be closer. The darker the sky the clearer the stars appear. Its truly impossible to look beyond the captivating stars." Then, the young girl descended below the stars and went back …show more content…
As her hair in rich shade of mahogany, it flowed, tears started running out of her captivating hazel eyes, flowed to her straight nose, rosy cheeks and full lips. The wind howled, voices echoed through her ears, the trees' branches looked like distorted limbs reaching toward her and spirits surrounded her. The biggest of them all, the god of spirits howled, "You shouldn't have come here!" The spirits strangled her arms like vines. With all her voice, she roared, "Where are my parents and leave me alone!" It cackled, "Fiesty one- anyways, I threw your parents into the bottomless pit, guess their not 'everfree anymore'. Then, you are next." Its torch lightened into multiple colors of flames. In the nick of time, someone became her shield. Someone hugged her, a mysterious male, dragon spirit hugged her as shield and carried her. He yelled, "One more attempt, I'll kill you." Everyone's eyes widened. She stopped crying and he put her down, gently. "Your parents ate our feast for this night. By the exchange, you must help us from the avalanche tomorrow and you all are free- tomorrow. Everyone agreed and told their stories at that night. Next day, a humongous avalanche scrambled down as the sun stared down at the world, the snow melted in the
The previous week they had performed the spell successfully. After contacting Mordred, Merlin and Morgana had arranged to meet him and Aglain, the leader of the druid camp, in the woods near a small waterfall, halfway between Camelot and the grave of Gorlois. Morgana always went on her annual pilgrimage to her father's tomb at this time of the year, at the end of spring.
They woke up and trudged on, through the deep and treacherous snow. “Roar”, all of them stopped in their tracks, they looked around but saw nothing except for the thick blanket of pure white snow.
“ you can't go looking for him Elena we told you about this Klaus thinks you're dead and we'd like to keep it that way ” Tyler said as we were all at the Salvatore house trying to get everything ready for the party tonight.
When the song had ended, the Fairies and the Wood Sprites all joined hands,then as one they rose into the sky like startled birds. They raised their hands up to the blue sky and with a pop they disappeared like the popping of a bubble; a few lonely leaves and petals drifting back to earth, the animals turn...
Joseph said he went back inside his residence for about two to three minutes, then walked back onto his front porch. Joseph said he saw two subjects, dressed in all black, walk from the direction of 7th ST SE and H ST SE to Jason and Jennifer's residence at 721 7th ST SE, and both subjects entered the residence. Joseph said he could not see who the subjects were, but he knew they entered Jason's residence. Joseph stated he did not believe the either of the subjects were Katie, because Katie is a "big" girl and hard to miss. Joseph said about one minute after the subjects entered Jason's residence, Katie exited the front door of the residence and stood on the front porch.
The hallways always seemed to have a chill around this place. The cold, crisp, and synthetic air the roamed through the interior of the Venator Class cruiser (fig. 1) felt better than naturally produced oxygen of a planet. Too hundreds of thousands of clone soldiers, Venator Class cruisers were home. After being in countless battles, the cruiser known as The Providence had become a well-known vessel amongst the outer rim territories. This cruiser was what CT-2532 called home. CT-2532 was just his rank number, he preferred to be called Jex.
Three inches of fresh snow fell last night, creating a blanket of freshness that reflects the last rays of moonlight. As we drive into our property we see fresh deer tracks and my heart starts pumping, I have been away from Wisconsin for a few months and this morning is the first time I entered these woods since September. A few hundred yards into the woods we jump three deer walking the road. They bound off into the darkness in flashes of brown silhouetted by snow. We park...

“Ring...ring...ring…” Morgan’s phone went, early that Saturday morning as her teammates started texting her about the big game today. She obviously didn’t care about the game yet because she was still deciding whether or not she should get out of bed. But then, Morgan quickly glanced at her phone and walked into the kitchen to see her dad cooking her favorite before games, bacon and eggs. She sat at the table waiting for some food while her mom and brother were still asleep. Her father, Ryan, lifted his head to see Morgan getting her uniform out of the dryer before announcing, “The food is ready, Morgan!” with a smile on his face. Morgan set down her uniform and sprinted toward the table with food on it. She gobbled up her food, then went to
“May your journey in the darkness bring you to the light,” the short one said.
There was always a new horizon to conquer for an intelligent species. The first was the domination of small areas of land. Those small areas expanded into larger areas, and soon a dominant species claimed dominion over their entire planet. When space travel first became possible, this process had repeated itself. At first they made small colonies on neighboring planets, and moons. Over the years the galaxy and beyond had been surveyed. Technology had evolved to a point of where the entire Local Group, all 54 galaxies, millions of light years under control.
There were once three friends Luke, Adam, and Eli. They were running for their lives from alien soldiers. They had only some food, water and a knife each. “Runnnnn they're gaining on us!” yelled Luke who was at the front. After they lost them they stopped to rest. They were in the forest of pyrex. They knew they had to get to hi valley for it was the only safe place in all the world. They were close to the place thought they just had to avoid many soldiers and bullets and then it would be a straight shot to the valley. Eli pointed to a map and said “It might be a few day stretch from here.” “But” interrupted Adam “There are soldiers everywhere that will shoot you on the spot,” luke said “We should go this way through the Spirit forest because, there is no way any soldier would go through it.” even though the voyage would take longer it was the safest way.
The safe house that Cain had picked out had been built in the early 50's. Originally a small jailhouse, it had been abandoned in 1975 when the King commissioned for the Wayland Penitentiary to be built. The jailhouse, while small, had been built over a series of evacuation tunnels dug deep underground. They weren't used by anyone other than the Knights and the Red Hoods—the King had condemned it with the closing of the jailhouse, deeming the tunnels unsafe for use.
The snow that was predicted to be several inches by the end of the weekend quickly piled up to around eight inches by that evening. At times, the snow was falling so heavily you could hardly see the streetlights that glistened like beacons in a sea of snow. With the landscape draped in white, the trees hangi...
