It was just going to be a simple scavenge at an abandoned military base. It seemed safe enough. There was a pack of old bandages in one of the crates, however, most of them were already rotten. Heading towards the 5-ton, the gorgeous M939 U.S. Army truck, he rummaged under the hood for a good battery back in its day it was probably used to carry personnel and supplies to destinations all across this land. Now it lies rusting, quietly whispering war stories in its carcass, waiting for someone to listen.…

I, Jaelin Carter, am writing to you, Hetal Patel, to prove to you why I deserve to continue my college career here at Robert Morris University. Rightfully so, should I have been on academic probation seeing as though I did not take the opportunity to allow my true scholastic ability to speak for me. By no means am I using this appeal as a window to make excuses for my poor choices but to simply enlighten you on the troubling and disheartening incidents that occurred which unfortunately became my first priority.…

Like a beautifully carved figurehead gracing the bow of a magnificent ship, Shelby Summers stood on deck of the "Illusion," staring out across the azure blue waters of the Chesapeake Bay. As the orange setting sun slid beneath the horizon, the evening found her completely consumed in thought, for she had a lot on her mind--mainly murder. Images flashed through her head at lightning speed, piecing together the details of time gone by and with it, her carefully orchestrated plan. Disciplined to near fault, she knew both the rigors and rewards of proper preparation, for this was not the first time, and it wouldn't be the last. Every step, every attention to detail was paramount to a successfully executed plan. She had done her homework and done it well.…

Hello I am Kiowa’s lieutenant from the Alpha Company, I would like to give some background information about me to you guys. I am a sophomore in college and I had joined up for the Reserve Officer Training Corps because it was worth a few credits and few of my friends had joined, making me want to join. In all honesty I do not care about this war and I have no desire on becoming a team leader but I have ended up as the leader of Kiowa and his friends. I am insecure about the decisions I would make, leading me to make two of my soldier’s death. The first death would be a soldier named Ted Lavender. Instead of focusing on my men I focus on a girl who I deeply love and the fact that I care more about my love more than my men makes me and unworthy…

Sure, we were being judged based on equipment and dance technique at competitions, but any judge could feel the sincerity of a guard that performed to their fullest ability. On the mat, my only goal was to connect and share exactly how I felt with the audience. My only goal was to give them a performance they would remember. And I wasn’t alone. My whole team was behind me, performing their hardest along side me, whispering things as we passed like “You got this,” “This is our best one yet,” and “Keep going.” All of my most treasured memories were made on that mat with the same group of girls, whether it was in a stunning performance or a grueling rehearsal. We knew everything about each other, how to make each other laugh, what each of our strengths were, how to tell what sort of mood we were in before we said a word, how to cheer each other up. I knew that the girls behind me weren’t just my team, but my family, my fallback, my network that would support me no matter what our score was at the end of the day.…
