Prologue
The curse on Hunter had just been broken, and he discovered that he in fact did have magical powers. He also had super strength. He could read into the future and teleport with his mind. He also could find Nikki and Ally anywhere, since they were the ones to help him break the curse. He had not told them yet, but he had heard that a Valentine’s Dance was coming, so he decided to wait until after to tell them. He knew who he wanted to go with.
Chapter One:
Big News
Ally had just gotten into class when she heard the news. The school was hosting a Valentine’s Day Dance, and all the boys had to ask the girls. Ally was very worried about that, because she wanted to go, but she also didn’t want to go with someone she barely knew. You see, Ally and Nikki were quite popular in school. Lots of guys were going to ask them to the dance, and she knew she would have to pick someone sooner or later. She decided she would make some groups: Going with, Cute, OK, and No Way. Every guy who asked her got put into a list. At the end of the day, twenty six guys from the school had asked Nikki and her. “What are we gonna do? We have to choose a guy sooner or later, or the dance will be a disaster!” groaned Nikki.
“I know that this is important to both of us. Maybe someone good will ask me or you,” Ally replied. Ally saw Hunter walk over and said hello. They grinned at each other and he walked away. As he walked away without saying nothing more, Nikki could see the slight disappointment on Ally’s face.
“I think you have a crush, Ally!” giggled Nikki. Ally thought about Halloween night and about what happened. Maybe he would ask her, which she doubted. Hunter and Ally had barely talked since then, just stared at each other a lot and ...
... middle of paper ...
... you said yes,” Nikki said.
“I did,” replied Ally, “and now I need your help. I know Hunter is still cursed, but I want to go to the dance with him. I don’t know if I should be worried or not.”
“You should not be scared,” Nikki said comfortably, “just be yourself, and hopefully by the end of the night, the spell will be broken. If you know what I mean.”
That night was the most magical of all. When Ally walked into the room, there was heart garland all around, romantic music, and lowlights for the effect. Best of all she was there, arm in arm with Hunter, right in the middle of it. “Would you care to dance?” Hunter asked a bit nervously.
“I would love to,” replied Ally, blushing. They had the best night ever, they danced, talked about their adventures together, and ate delicious food. Finally, as the last waltz came to an end, Hunter’s spell was broken.
In the short story “The Hunter” the author Richard Stark introduces Parker, the main character of this book. The main character is a rough man, he’s a criminal, a murderer, and even an escaped convict. He’s described as crude and rugged and though women are frightened by him, they want him. Parker is not the classic criminal, but rather he’s intelligent, hard, and cunning. In this story the author carefully appeals to his audience by making a loathsome criminal into a hero, or rather, an anti-hero. The author, Richard Stark uses ethical appeal to make his audience like Parker through the use of phronesis, arête, altruism and lastly the ethos of his audience.
“This ones going to kill my story. It was so happy and magical.” Elizabeth fluttered to the front of the room.
Now I wished that I could pen a letter to my school to be read at the opening assembly that would tell them how wrong we had all been. You should see Zachary Taylor, I’d say.” Lily is realizing now that beauty comes in all colors. She is also again being exposed to the fact that her way of being raised was wrong, that years and years of history was false. “The whole time we worked, I marveled at how mixed up people got when it came to love.
Hester smiled. “Then fear nothing. She may be strange and shy at first, but will soon learn to love thee!”
Miss Desjardin, still incensed over the locker room incident and ashamed at her initial disgust with Carrie, wants all the girls who made fun of Carrie suspended and banned from attending the school prom, but the principal instead punishes the girls by giving them several detentions. When Chris, after an altercation with Miss Desjardin, refuses to appear for the detention, she is suspended and barred from the prom and tries to get her fat...
	The poems of Robert Hunter have diverse and variegated themes; most, however relate either to folk stories or the vivid emotions and scenes he creates in order to illustrate his point. Hunter's lyrical themes can be divided into three main categories. First are themes used in a traditional vein, written about classical ideas and told in a folkloric fashion. Second are themes employed in a contemporary tone, about modern concepts and written in a more current style. Last are themes that are either used frequently in both contemporary and traditional ways, or transcend the division of contemporary/traditional and form their own categories.
“Yeah, I’ve known him since I was a little girl. He was a friend of my mother’s as well,” replied Cassi. She looked as if she had just seen a ghost. “Do you think he knows what’s going on?”
“Hey…knock it off,” said Mika looking at them, “It’s true that what Oliver did was wrong but also, we teasing him made him go overboard and that was bad but it’s Halloween, the main thing that kids look forward to is bring scared and having fun. I’m sure she’ll be okay but in the future, don’t make wild theme parties and also, we need to stop making him feel bad. We all know he can be a little sensitive,” the men exchanged glances. Mika got up and went outside. Rin spotted him.
“No, you don’t,” she growled, “but I did it anyway. You know why? Because we’re family. Her last words to me were, ‘Take her to Miles. He deserves to see at least one of his girls grow up.’”
Twinkle felt a chill creep into her heart, very slowly, like a slug, and nestle between her ribs. “He cannot find the house,” she said. “The clearing is well hidden. I’m not good at most of the spells I use, but I’m good at protective spells. I find it awful to think that someone wants to do something bad to my animals or me.”
“Are you done yet?” Sara said, attempting to rip us away from this beautiful moment. I understand now that she was trying to make sure I was safe, as I was talking to a stranger I had just met. I was still annoyed with her from the earlier confrontations we had. Her slight intoxication was another thing I didn’t want to deal with it.
“See Rache. I told you I always liked him,” Leena giggled, motioning towards Justin. “He was always friendly and polite, unlike some people,” she threw me a smug
As soon as that thought came through her head Castiel leaned forward and kissed her, lightly this time. It was lacking the heat and passion of the one in the closet, it was soft and hesitant. Somehow, that set her body more on fire than the other one had. Every part of her body started to tingle, even though Castiel was treating her as if she would break at any moment. So careful, so sweet, so delicate. It took her breath away.
Chris stays silent for a moment, not sure if she’s supposed to reply or not, before saying, “You never introduced me. I wish I had gotten a chance to meet him.”
