He was out of this world handsome I should have known that he was not who he said he was. “Isaac!” I flush at his name my brother waved his hand over his head at his best friend. Isaac was a mystery and it was what attracted him to all the girls at school. His brown hair was a caramel brown with gold eyes and prefect everything. I try to straighten my hair as best as I could to no avail, so I pull my hoodie up. We head to our classes as they talked, &nb...

Macklin I walk to my bus stop and take a seat at the bench there was never anyone up this early so I was alone before the sun ever rose staring a milky white envelop in my hand I hold it up to the street light trying to see the content but it was no use the stamp was to big to guess anythin...
"Lilly if we don't leave soon we will miss our plane so get moving!" My dad shouts for the third time in the last half hour. I sigh trudging out of my empty bedroom for the last time ever."I don't see a problem with that." I mumble as I descend down the stairs. He sighs as well looking at me with sad eyes, they haven't looked happy since she got sick and I don't think they will ever be the same again but how could they, they mimicked mine sad, lonely and desperate. However we're not desperate for the same thing he want to get as far away fro...
"Ivey are you almost ready?" Seth came into our room already in his strange suit that Ivearnien's wear to celebrations however he was handsome so he killed. "Almost I am just doing the last pieces could you help?" I ask my arms reached back to clip the necklace but I was failing miserably. He came in the sounds of his feet echoed in the room I sigh, "Why is my grandmothers idea of cozy a giant freaking room!" I groan and that too echo's. I sight stretching my arms as he takes the necklace from my grasp. Our fingers brushed and the current of...

"Like this." My older sister had hung up her rag of a jacket on the fence in the ally way as she showed me the best way to pick pocket someone in the busier crowds we have been having. "You are tiny so when you reach in they won't feel it but what do we do when we see a nice looking women?" I sat on a box one leg resting on the other however when I answered I jumped and in a quiet shout I pull out my knife, "Slice the bag in the bottom." She smiles and takes the torn cloth off the wooden poll and forced it on. "Smart young lady now lets go ...

"Hey, hey you wake up." I heard a girl's voice but my eye's didn't want to compel, "Hey! Wake up!" The same voice said in a loud whisper. I slowly opened my eye's, the first thing I saw was bars and a dark room. Groggily I sat up and looked around I couldn't see much there was no lights that was clear. "Hey." I turn my head to look at where the voice was coming from. It was obvious a few seconds later I was in a cage or maybe a cell I could tell for sure not at first. The girl was on the other side of another set of bars to my right I ...
"I'm sorry ma'am I don't know anything but I think I might know who." A villager says with a scared face. "Who!" I said in a demanding tone my left hand grips my sword. "Grabnock the kind he has been prophesied to do greatness and I'm sure he knows something." The villager says a little scared. (okay a lot a scared) "For your sake you better hope it's true." I say viciously. With that I go to find ...
"Anthony get up and ready for school you can't be late on your first day!" My grandma shouts as she passed my room then the sound of banging on doors down the hall rang. I groan as the pillow I was holding over my head slides off to the floor, like a zombie I push off and out of bed just to fall back down to greet the hardwood floor after tripping on the shoes I kicked off hazorly last night after I got back home from my shift at the only convenience store we get no customers on my shift besides the people getting gas next door to the c...
I always wondered if I had done something different said something different or had said nothing at all would it have made a difference now? What happened you ask? Well you see it wasn't a big deal to most people they thought nothing of it however for me it will always stay with me.I was twelve years old I was playing with my cousins at my great grandmother's house she lived in the country and had a good size patch of trees that we would play hid and seak in. This was the time before mobile phones were everywhere and every five year old coul...

The last thing I can remember was the blade of my enemy piercing through my armor, striking deep into my chest; the pain was agonizingly unbearable, it lasted for what felt like many tormenting hours until the black cloud of death took over. When I awoke it was chaos every which way, I turned my head where I laid, things tearing at one another as the screech of madness can be heard from a far, it was so dark that even the white hue of the moon above did little to penetrate the ink black surroundings giving it a blue faded darkness. I c...
