The Return
The Animal In The Cage
Hell, what a place to be. A place with the sweet sound of hundreds of thousands of people screaming in agony, as my children torture their helpless souls. This is my home. This is my paradise. And I'm locked up in a cage with my douche bag older brother who's been a pain in my ass for far too long. Well he was a pain in my ass. Two and a half years I've been fighting it out with Michael, and the other 6 months I've been trying to crawl out of here. Now, after three years of waiting, I'm out.
The alarm goes off, 7:30 in the morning. Nick wakes up with a sudden shock, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. He got up and walked over to the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face. "Get it together, Nick." he whispered to himself. He still has dreams of when he was Lucifer's meat suit, but it was never this bad. It was never this real. But he knew it was bad, because he wasn't just dreaming of Lucifer, he was Lucifer. A splitting headache was running through him, as if someone had split his skull open and was poking his brain. Nick scrambled through the medicine cabinet, searching for some Aspirin and took two and chugged down some water after it.
"Nick? Is everything alright?" asked Alex, who was still in bed, right next to where Nick was. He was breathing heavily, "I'm fine," he replied, hoping that she wouldn't ask anything else, "just a bad dream and a headache." he added.
"I'm gonna go make some breakfast, you want me to make you anything?" asked Alex.
"No its alright, I'm not hungry" Nick responded.
The truth was Nick was starving but couldn't be bothered to eat because he knew if he went down to the kitchen there'll be more questions about what was going on.
Half an ho...
... middle of paper ...
... he checked the time, it was 2:57 in the morning. Nick was trying to call for a nurse but no one appeared to answer, he dialled the number to his house but there was no reception so he couldn't get through. Then the lights flickered slightly, Nick looked up at it but it seemed to be fine now, then he realised that he really needed to go to the bathroom. As he walked towards the toilet door, Nick felt as if he was being watched, but no one else was there, he was alone in his room. As he entered the bathroom he splashed cold water on his face, and he heard someone say "Oh come on. Get it together, Nick." Nick looked up in shock, looking directly at the mirror. He saw his own reflection, but at the same time it wasn't him. The man in the mirror had scars all over his face, his eyes burning with evil, and then he smiled.
"Hey Nick, its been a while. I've missed you."
Summary: "The Cage" by Ruth Minsky Sender is a book about a teenage girl who was separated from her mother and brothers when the nazis captured them and sent them to a concentration camp. While she was in the concentration camp, she got sick and one of the Nazi guards took her to a hospital, but they had to go througgh several hospitals because they didn't take jews. After her operation, the doctor had to teach her how to write with her left hand because she couldn't write with her right hand. A russian commander helped her out by giving her food and baths, and she gave her a job that wasn't as hard as the other "prisoners" had. She lived off her mother's quote, "When there is life, there is hope." She believed that and she got through the
He could not sleep and his head was like an old radio that never shut off. His eyes had sunk into his skull from lack of sleep to go along with his eyes, discolored mounds of flesh begging for help. One night the voices led him to leave his apartment and wander through town until they finally led him to the scene of rape in progress. The voices had pleaded for his help, leading through a maze all the while telling him which turns to take. He was in an alleyway behind an old apartment complex and had heard the cries of a woman pushed up against the dumpster by a man forcing all his weight up against her.
According to his own words, Nick is a person “inclined to reserve all judgment” (1). He is desperately honest, and goes to great lengths to try to prove that he trustworthy. However, despite numerous attempts to convince the audience otherwise, he is not a reliable narrator, for the former claim does not hold true.
...him being honest was that he said he follows his own advice “I’m inclined to reserve all judgments” (1). This contradicted with his statement of being honest because instead of telling people the truth he would just reserve what he thought of them. After realizing what was becoming of himself, Nick went home to give himself some thought.
Do you have an identity without this society? Hell is not about suffering or punishment. Hell is the society that we live in. People who surround us make our life in hell or heaven for us. People around us make our life miserable by judging our actions. The society that we live in like to judge our acts and bring it to different level where we lost our self-identity and live with the misunderstanding of what people says about us.
Hell has "no light, but rather darkness served only to discover sights of woe." It is a "region of sorrow, doleful shades, where peace and rest can never dwell, hope never comes...but torture without end still urges." This is an atmosphere severely unlike the one from which Satan came. He was willing to give up all he had, peace, love, joy, beauty, and all alike, to overcome God and gain all of His power.
Nick literally lies at the beginning of the story by telling the reader that his “family have been prominent, well-to-do people in the middle-western town for three generations.” (3) Despite this claim, his father can only afford to support him for one year. (3) And when the Buchanans ask Nick about his engagement rumor, he contradicts himself by saying he is too poor to marry. (1...
I could see him driving home seeing the cat and then being confused when he saw the front door was open. He walks inside yelling “Amy” but there is no answer. He then continues walking through the house and comes into the living room and sees the coffee table kicked over and broken. Books were all over the floor and the ottoman was on its back with the feet facing upwards. Then Nick saw a pair of sharp scissors on the floor and he continued to yell “Amy”. Another part that I can visualize is when Nick was at the police station being questioned. I could see him picking up the phone to call Amy’s parents to tell them she was missing and then hearing his father in the other room yelling at an officer, which adulterated the situation even more. He was calling her names. The police officer said, “The nursing home has been trying to contact him all day, your father walked out through an emergency exit and was walking down by the river.” (Page
It's been a long day, introducing Nick to the important people in my life. I decided to let him in on my life to clear up any rumors that he’s heard from anyone on the outside. After this long day I finally took him home.
Night had fallen on the animal farm, though no animal was sleeping peacefully. Sleep was impossible that evening, for in the morning it would be known who was destroying the farm and who killed the old leader. Once before the farm was in shambles, and the animals looked to their new leader, Freud, to save them again as he had once before.

Hell rolls off the tongue easily for many people, people who have no clue what they are saying or whether Hell even really exist use the word daily. The phrases “Go to hell,” “Get the hell out of here,” and “Hell yeah” are used in everyday conversations. In fact, hell is becoming such a common word that it is not even considered a curse word by nearly everyone, even Christians. Hell has lost much of the threat that Christ spoke of throughout the entire New Testament. It seems that the general populace thinks of Hell as the ultimate party- cold beer, loose girls, bum fights, and drugs; a spiritual Las Vegas or Thailand. A place filled with sin without anyone in control and absolutely no consequences for anyone’s actions. This thought, this inaccurate illusion of Hell is sadly plaguing much of the world, not just America. As many pastors have precluded in the past, Hell is real, Hell is hot, and Hell is in no way fun. Through biblical research one will find that Hell is a place that exist, it is a place of absolute misery, and the presence of God is not there. The goal of the following document is to define Hell, prove the existence of Hell, show what one will experience in Hell, and explain how to choose where one spends eternity.
Hell-Dante-Hello My name is dante and I wrote a book called Dante’s Inferno I am here writing this today to tell you about my experience with hell. So if you have read my book you know that there is nine levels to hell which I all visited. When it comes to describing the levels of hell basically as you go down the worse the punishment gets. For example the worst level you can be on is level 9 which is with satan and it is freezing down there. Satan is eating frozen people on that level. Compared to level which is just nothingness. So I hoped this story helped you to get a better feel of what hell is like.
