The Phone Call “Four seconds left in the game, the Tri-county Patriots are down by a touchdown. The Patriots just broke the huddle. They are lined up for the last play of the game. Star quarterback, Leonard Watson, takes the snap, he looks to throw… and he tucks it! He’s got some room, and blockers… The 30, the 20, the 10! Touchdown Patriots! There is no time left on the clock, the Patriots win! Another victory for the Tri-county High Patriots, and another amazing night for Leonard Watson!” As the announcer finished, the crowd bursted into a chant of “Watson, Watson, Watson!” Leonard’s closest companion, Kelvin Cook, sprinted down onto the field yelling over the crowd “ Hey Leonard, hurry up and get dressed, I just got us into the biggest party of the year!” “ Foreal!?” exclaimed Leonard, …show more content…
“ You're going to make me either way aren’t you” Kelvin said sulkily. “ You know me so well!” Leonard said with a huge grin on his face. “ Let’s just get this over with.” Answered Kelvin. The two had gotten out of their car and now had walked up to the front door of the house, which was very weathered like the roof and was only held together by one hinge. The teens were now inside the house, which didn’t look any different than the outside, everything was in bad condition. They had now walked around the house for a little bit, and they were about ready to leave when Kelvin looked down and found fresh muddy boot prints all along the floor. “Leeoonnaarrdd loook!” Kelvin could barely get the words out he was so scared. “Those aren’t mine,” Leonard whispered, looking as white as a ghost. “Who’s are they” questioned Leonard. “I’m not sure but I don’t want to stick around to find out!” Yelled Kelvin as he ran for the door, but instead of the door only hanging by one hinge like before, it was now bolted down and there was no way to
“How am I supposed to know who I had got hitched to, let alone who was dumb enough to pick you two.”
“Not if you don’t know it isn’t real, it isn’t yuk.” Orson sighed but continued. “The funny thing to this day is…my brothers didn’t care once they found out it was me.”

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
I was drifting off to sleep when I heard a knock at the door. I unlocked the door and opened it, only to find a masked man standing before me. Suddenly, a punch was thrown at me, and I fell to the ground. My vision started to blur and I started to lose consciousness. The darkness crept across my eyes slowly until everything was completely black.

Julie’s dreams never worked out. She had dreams of going to college, but that fell through. No money. Was it her fault that the economy took a nose dive and no one wanted to give her a scholarship? Julie was going to graduate in the top half of her class. But, then she’d missed one final exam. Did she ask to get the flu or to forget the date of the makeup exam? Work for living, meet the right people, and take advantage of your opportunities. How she hated the advice she got from her parents. Well, this was where Julie drew the line. This was where she would set herself apart from the crowd. No more Loser for Julie. She was going to be the best Executive Assistant in the world. And, she was going to start today.

As the sun slowly settled, darkness began to overcome the Earth. Sickness—had come. The sickness slowly but readily crept into each home. It was the Midnight Theft. The destructive plague stole during midnight—it stole lives. Deep in the heart of Tukenasville, people were dying, and the whole country was beginning to perish. The flowers withered as they bloomed. The mountain peaks crumbled under steer weight. Animals fled to holes to live out the final moments of their life. People were distraught, and chaos was invading every planet in the macrocosm. People called me Nikolaou Gonfalon. I was the last of the Warriors of Phos. Long ago, the Sisters of Moiré ordained my doomed fate. I tried to bargain with them to change it, but in the end, I captured them and locked them up in a repository on a cliff. I was to lead the expedition to find the cure for the Midnight Theft. That, however, was not the reason why I would go on this journey. My best friend, Tolem, was dying of a rare illness called Takigifeay. It was causing the slow built up of lactic acid on his bones. I knew that death would come to him soon. Legend spoke about a necklace that can bring life to anyone or thing. It was said to have been belonged to an Oceanian, one of the water people. The Lost Jade Necklace of Serenity was what it was called, and it could bring healing to the Earth. Nonetheless, it could be the obliteration of mankind, also. I began to pack since my journey was to start at that moment.
