As the missile was coming down, Mike stood there watching. His arms flailed by his side and the weapon dropped to the ground. He thought about what got him here; Elena encouraging him to go and save the world. Where is she now? Buried, along with the rest of Britannica’s citizens.
He looked around and saw soldiers, both allies and enemy... All with the same posture, looking up at their limited future. Thinking how futile it all was.
Was it all futile? It doesn’t matter. Mike looked up and his eyes followed the missile, his head slowly coming down.
BOOM!

The illegal passenger
My home is marvellous. Everyday there would be an abundance of new food that I had never tasted before. New smells that tingled my senses and made me shiver in joy. A small place where I wasn’t bothered nor harassed. Best of all, those pesky oppressors that are bountiful everywhere you go are but a mere a few here. It was truly heaven.

a night full of darkness
Dark, silent, and terrifying. These three words describe my feelings right now. Alone in the dark room, I close my ears and try not to hear anything. Because currently, there is a monster that often enters my house, making the atmosphere frightening. My mother always told me that if the monster came, I should go into my room and cover my ears so I wouldn't suffer too much. The monster often beats my mother at night. Maybe that's why she doesn't want me to hear or see the pain she endures.

This was emotional. I really hoped the end would be a miracle coming to save him.
