I awake to nothing but a dark space. My hands are strapped down and my neck put in a brace. I wonder to myself, “Why am I here? what happened to me?” All I can think about is my last memory. Nothing, nothing pops up. It's as if my head is empty filled with nothing but air. I can feel the board I’m strapped on moving. People are talking above, with a car like engine roaring. I begin to worry, every terrifying intrusive thought comes through my head all at once: am I hurt? Is this what being kidnapped is like? All I can think about is trying to escape.
As the ghastly thoughts flood my mind, all I think about is an escape plan. While I conjure up a plan to escape, I begin to unstrap the harnesses holding me down. A sharp pain shoots through my neck, forcing me down, back onto the hard board. I tried to unstrap the straps, but feel a sharp pain from my neck. In so much pain I stop, and lay on the board.

Do they miss me or do they know where I am? While trying to sit up I notice I’m wearing snow boots and pants. Why, why am I wearing such clothes. I feel a sharp burst of cold air. Am I outside? All the sudden the engine stops. I’m worried who will appear. Suddenly I hear them walk right over me and slowly a light begins to show. They appear with a bright red coat, two men with a small tag that said “Ski Patrol/Medics.” I grow enough mite to ask why I am strapped down and where they are taking me. One of the men smiles and assures me everything will be ok. I start to worry knowing when emergency crew say that something truly is wrong. While the man was speaking, the other slipped out of my sight and reappeared with a sharp needle. I wanted to tell of my fear of needles, but before I could say anything. The man injected the big needle and clear like substance into my body. Slowly my eyes began to close and I fell asleep once
and soon I was sleeping. I spent a great deal of time asleep over the
I looked up at Gabriel from the grass. I never actually got to inspect the full extent of his features. His dark brown hair was tussled and looked as if he had been running his fingers through it from stress. His green eyes resembled emeralds. He had a bit of muscle on him, but he wasn’t too broad shouldered. You could see a small rose tattoo on his upper bicep. He wore a dark green t-shirt and jeans. He was definitely handsome, and all his features complimented each other.
Zero awoke to find himself standing, it was not something he was familiar with and he searched his memory for any recollection of it happening before. Quickly he discovered that large parts of his memory were missing, gone were the seemingly endless data bases of information. Quickly he sent out feelers trying for a connection of some sort but he drew a blank. It seemed that where ever he was now, had limited connection capacity. Instead he used his visual feed to survey his surrounding, it appeared he was in some kind of desert of discarded parts.
"Call the ambulance!" My advisor immediately dialed 911 as she tried to keep me awake and breathing. My eyes were rolling in and out to the back of my head, with tears consistently falling down my growing pale face. Within the next ten minutes, my body caved in and my arms and legs turned severely numb. When the paramedics arrived, they lifted me onto the stretcher where my eyes were becoming hazy and everything I looked at was a complete blur. My heart was beating rapidly and my fingers curled outwards in a terrifying direction. While driven away, I could hear the paramedics asking me to stay awake, but my head was pounding harshly like the sound of drums and as my eyes slowly closed, a ray of white light slowly
I felt the rumbles deep within my abdomen -- I have felt this feeling before, accompanied by the cold sweat and state of panic -- pressure and intense urgency filled my mind and body. “Lish! Pass me the trowel, I need to dig a cathole!” I exclaimed. (Lish was our beaver-resembling male camp guide named Elisha).
I had no idea what was going on and I don’t think he knew either. I could feel myself loosing balance but I fought to stay up right as I covered my ears screaming because I couldn’t stand the pain of never-ending noise pulsing through my head!
I wondered if they left for a reason (Which I later found out they did). As far as I knew, they just left. I sat back and the cold bar gave my neck a chill. I could see the guy at the end and I waved to him. He wore a black hat and a green jacket like most ski lift operators do. He waved back and I thought to myself “At least he’s nice.” The hill under me started to shrink as I got closer to the platform. When the platform was in sight I lifted the cold bar with my glove and I could see the mark were my hand had melted the snow on it. My poles were in my hands and my skis up ready to get off. It looked as though I was about to attack someone, which is the normal way you get off the lift, legs raised, poles at 45 degree angle, and head straight ahead. My skis were on and I inched my way forward down to the small hill, onto the main one. After I was on the main hill, there was a neighborhood of other trails, to my left was Mardi Gras, the biggest and main trail of Holiday Valley, in front of me was two more, one led to a terrain park and the other was just another trail of Mardi Gras (or Mardi for short). I swung my skis to the left and passed a few snow boarders strapping up and said to one with a board that had LEDs, “Nice board!” He replied with “Thanks man!” I continued down the trail going slowly while the trees and the snow were grasping my eyes. I came to the part of the hill were it
she always used to wish for a way to escape her life. She saw memories
A girl runs from room to room in a deserted house. She’s looking for somewhere to hide, but all the rooms are empty. Her hands open and close, grasping at the air as she careers from wall to wall and stumbles through doors. She runs down narrow stairs into the basement. A fluorescent bulb hums and flickers, throwing shadows onto a crumbling brick wall and the concrete floor.
Glancing up at the sun, one last time to notice a faint shadow on the wall, my mind started to deteriorate, I couldn’t feel anything, but I could make out one coherent thought , it was telling me to sleep one last time. Hands on my back reawoken me, causing me to mentally panic. I eventually calmed down enough to try to understand what’s happening. A possibility of me being carried crossed my mind, but it seemed unlikely, or so I presumed.
Your breath quickens. You search desperately for an exit, a way to flee, a primal need to escape this place and return to a warm, safe home with people to comfort you. But even as the panic sets in, it begins to subside. And something even stronger than your fear compels you to move forward. You shiver, and even though you find yourself surrounded by a warm summer night you are cold to the touch. Your hands are white and clammy, your breath freezes in the air again, and yet still you wonder what has happened. A tug at your chest pulls you onward into the street, and like a dog on a leash you follow it. There are no objections on your lips, no thoughts of refusal in your mind. The pull forward is too strong and as the music grows louder you feel as if something wants you here. It wants you to see something that you’ve missed. This thing, this compulsion is beyond anything you've ever known. You wonder what would happen if you said no. If you followed you’re envisioning of safety and turned to never look
The snow started to come down too fast. My skis could only carry me so far, and with a quick glance back, I saw my sister engulfed into oblivion. A split second later, it hit me, too; the shards of pain from the impact took my breath away.
The Creature That Opened My Eyes Sympathy, anger, hate, and empathy, these are just a few of the emotions that came over me while getting to know and trying to understand the creature created by victor frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. For the first time I became completely enthralled in a novel and learned to appreciate literature not only for the great stories they tell but also for the affect it could have on someones life as cliché as that might sound, if that weren’t enough it also gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of the idiom “never judge a book by its cover.” As a pimply faced, insecure, loner, and at most times self absorbed sophomore in high school I was never one to put anytime or focus when it came time
After a long and hard week at school, my little brother, my father and I decided to go to Whistler to enjoy the new snow that had just fallen. I was looking forward to having a blast shredding through the powder and spending quality time with my family. We were making tremendous timing on our way up to the mountain. I was so excited that we might have time to rent our skis before the shop closed, so we could have the earliest possible start to our day. Yet disaster struck when we were only five kilometers away.
I am laying on a piece of wood under the play set. I cannot feel my back or my legs. I keep asking myself why? Scared now, I start to scream “mom! Mom!”
