At midnight, a well-known break-in team arrived in the bustling city. Sapphire Phoenix is said to have a strange power. Taking on this risky act required precise preparation.
Quietly, the team penetrated the heavily guarded gallery, averting movement sensing units and laser grids. They stood prior to the grand chamber where the Sapphire Phoenix rested within a class instance.
They experienced an advanced safety and security system. Max, the crew's mastermind, was undeterred. He disabled the system effortlessly with a personalized device. The stage is ready.
Their active fingers worked swiftly on the elaborate glass instance locks. However just as they will seize the gem, an alarm smashed the silence. Panic took place as guards abounded it was a catch
With no time to spare, the team scattered in various directions, leaving Max behind. His sacrifice purchased them precious seconds. Max whispered certainly, The Phoenix will climb again.
The team disappeared into the night, each member taking his own retreat course. Guards went after shadows in confusion, not able to capture their evasive prey
Days later, headlines savored the museum's embarrassment, yet the Sapphire Phoenix continued to be at large. The team had achieved my goals.

"My tears need a minute to find the edges of my face. If you'll please excuse me." The sarcasm stabbed into Juliana’s heart. Antonia glared at her from the pit of the Lyceum as her student fought to hold back tears that had nothing to do with the pain in her fingers. “You’re better than this, again.”

A Defeatist
A Defeatist Elias lived a life never-endingly hung within the shadow of "what uncertainties." Each choice, each activity, was weighed down by the fear of being labeled a defeatist. He wasn't born that way. As a child, his eyes shone with the same brave flicker as the other boys, the ones who climbed the tallest trees and chased after rebel fireflies long past nightfall. But some place along the way, fear took root, a weed that choked the once dynamic plant of his strength.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
