suddenly set into my body; that ghastly wind moving right through me and chilling my bones to that of splintering ice. The need to move started me forward though‚ and I felt a sharp ache all over‚ my body trying to fight against change. Was I lost? My heart began pounding fast in my chest‚ the blood pumping through my veins felt like an icy river. So slow‚ but I trudged onwards‚ hope holding onto a possible lie. It was when my pace held steady that a sudden wariness alerted me to foreign noises. Soft

“Hey wait up!” Jared yelled to his sister Gen. “We aren’t supposed to be in this part of the woods” Jared said. “Ya‚ I know but have you ever wondered why we can’t go beyond the border?” Gen asked. Jared thought about it and realized that he had never really wondered why it was forbidden to go beyond the border. Was there something that they weren’t being told?

Early the next morning‚ I woke up with a rough hand shaking me. I opened up my eyes to see Phokas shaking my shoulder. “Come on Domitius‚ it is time to get up!” I groaned as I did so.

CHAPTER TEN Invasion of the Ugly Ogres We felt our way along like three blind mice through the morning fog. Until at last we left the cold‚ damp‚ mist behind and emerged into a backdrop of wind and grit. I was about to suggest we wait until tomorrow before crossing the kingdom when a set of powerful gray hands clamped around my ankle. “Back off‚ ugly.” I drew my sword. “Ah‚ the little brat‚ wants to play at being a bad boy?” the monster said in scorn. “Well‚ we’re tired of playing‚ kid.

Room 101 As he sat stiff backed and upright in the hard wooden chair‚ Jotham looked around anxiously. He could only see three of the walls‚ and the ceiling‚ if he craned his neck upwards‚ but that was enough to make him very uneasy indeed.

Now‚ Keith was left to listen to the void‚ his nerves prickling at his skin underneath his armor. Screw the silence‚ he thinks‚ screw

How could he just treat us all like we were cattle as if it was nothing? The speedometer crept up to 60 miles per hour. Didn’t he care that people everywhere were starving? How could he do this? When he was elected he promised that he would Make America Great Again. 70 miles per hour. I had to get to the rally. We needed change‚ we could be that change. 80 miles per hour. My thoughts were interrupted as my eyes caught the reflecting glow of red and blue lights paint the night sky behind me. Crap

Hours passed quickly as Akiak and Shatiya slept soundly. Once the sun had risen and the clock read seven forty‚ there was a loud knock at the door awakening Shatiya almost immediately. Her poor husband looked so comfortable laying next to her‚ she didn’t have the heart to wake him up too. She agreed to tend to the duty of greeting company herself. She quietly slipped out of bed and threw a robe over her thick plaid pajamas. “Ey?” She asked impolitely acquainted a large man holding a bag and a small slip of paper in his
