Adventure
What Really Happened
“Go to the library now!” “What’s going on?” I ask. “Don’t ask questions, just go!” When I got to school that day, everything was destroyed. Fires everywhere, buildings turning to rubble, streets torn out of the ground, everyone running around. It’s all chaos. Not to mention the heat, it’s always been hot in San Francine, but today, it seems hotter than usual. Nobody seems to know where to go. I am definitely not going to the library.

Stay Strong
July 2021 – Winwoods, Georgia She sat alone in the damp darkness that now surrounded her, not wishing for freedom, as one might have guessed, but nearly welcoming the chains and shackles that now confined her. The cold steel against her wrists and ankles kept her in the moment. The pain they caused a constant reminder that this was no nightmare. She nearly laughed aloud at the thought. This of all things a nightmare? She had been through much worse than this. Things that would have the world's best horror writers cringe and their biggest fans begging for an intermission.

Traveling Through Darkness
Why can't I breathe? What's happening? The bag of chips I was holding falls from my trembling hands onto my bedroom floor. I gasp in deep breaths of air. Am I losing my mind? Minutes creep by like hours. Finally, my back falls hitting my soft carpet. I grip the floor and a few tears leave my eyes. What's happening? Is that normal? I don't think that's normal...i'll just keep this to- “Hello there, having trouble are we?” My eyes widen and my back slowly pulls off the floor.

Frost and Flame
PART 1: FROST It was a beautiful morning despite the cloudy blanket of gray that covered the sky. As I tilted my face upward, I could feel the light, small snowflakes fall on my cheeks as they trickled down from the sky. A chilly wind swept by me, causing me to shiver. But I didn't care. The landscape was gorgeous, with a thick layer of snow that covered both the ground and the trees.

Skimmer
The cool early spring night was nearly over. The moon had set almost two hours before, and the dark had settled in the velvety corners of a quiet suburban street. The loudest sound was the gentle burbling of the swimming pool pump, which had been started up just a few days before. The water was mostly still on its surface, with small clumps of sodden leaves gently eddying in the darkness from the current below.
