Eli woke from his restless sleep. He quickly grabbed his things for school and made for his window. He throws one end of his rope out of his window. After affirmation that he had everything for the day he took the rope into one hand. He puts his backpack on properly and proceeds to climb down the rope. When he gets to the bottom he hides the rope with the vines growing on the side of the house. He looks back at his window, then takes off for his safe haven.Eli never needed to use his window as an escape when he was younger. It was the best k...

Danon fiddled with the ring box in his hand. He had something eating at the back of his mind. His priorities needed to be straightened. He made his decision then placed the ring box down. His phone rang. The ringtone gave away the caller. Danon bit his lip in anticipation of what he was going to hear.“Hey Lulu.” Danon answers.There was no immediate answer. Something was wrong.“I don’t want to do this alone.” Lucielle finally answered.“How many times do I need to remind you? You will always have me.” Danon reassured as he grabbed his packed l...
It’s the first day of school, but it’s also Penni’s second year. You would think that by the second year she would be comfortable. That was an understatement. She had a decent social standing, but her friends who managed to support her in that achievement graduated. She was practically starting over. At this point she didn’t care for friends. She just wanted to stick the rest of her time out and hopefully get out of there early. According to her counselor she could graduate by her junior year.When the bell rang, Penni didn’t have to move an ...

What do you do when you want to eliminate the human race? A series of plans that work whether the previous plan was a huge success or a disgraceful failure. Endless phases that will only end when there is nobody to execute it or no one else to execute. That is where many antagonists screw up. They want the end result to be complete extinction. Then out of the rebellion of their plot a group of people are miraculously spared and build the population yet again. They assumed that leaving one person would counteract that ideology.A sole existenc...
Mila looked up into the bright stars shining in the night. She was relieved that the sky was clear. They needed it right now. She went back to studying the sky above, searching for something. She wasn’t sure of what she was looking for exactly. This was the last place she could look for them. She found herself lost in her gaze just as easy as she felt lost in her life. Before she could plead to the heavens for guidance, she was pulled back to reality.“Mommy, are you sure Daddy will be able to watch us after we leave?” A rough voice inquired ...

02/02/2019It’s one of those nights again. The medicine stopped working its magic. Guess it’s time for a break to get them out of my system. More sleepless nights. Then again they were never rare. Add chronic pains to those and you get terribly long nights. You get used to it after the constant years. Nothing to do about it, but make the best of it. All of my daily missions on my mobile games are cleared. I am stuck on all of my console games. My body is too tired to get to my computer. If only it was tired enough to sleep, but you can’t have...

So how was she going to do it?Silvi lied in bed, trying to think of a game plan. She needed to do it. This has to be the day. Then again she could tell them after school. ...
It was that time of the year again. It never piqued his interest during his past 2 years of high school. Skyler never felt bad for turning down anyone who asked him to go. This year, however, was proving to be different. He was sitting at the mercy of his best friend he met at the end of last year. He could have been getting some running in this evening, but she was against it. He continued to wear his pout as he looked in the mirror. She was trying her all to fix his unruly hair. That hand full of hair just refused to stay down.“I guess, th...
