"All that Remains" They say it must have been an accident‚ especially since his eyesight was entirely gone. They claim the fire consumed the house‚ the orange and yellow hands of the flame spread its reach on everything it could. It even looked as though it could threaten to eat the sky. She stood there‚ unsure of whether to be shocked‚ distraught‚ or angry. And finally‚ finally after several moments‚ her feet allowed her to approach what was left of her home--was her home? All that remained was

A couple weeks had gone by‚ Ashleigh had dragged me to Toronto to take a look at this flat‚ and to be completely honest‚ it was probably the best flat I’ve seen for a while. Especially for the money. Since Thanksgiving was coming up (American; my mom was from New York) I decided to pay my parents a visit in Montreal‚ I haven’t seen them in such a long time and I really missed them‚ especially my brother and my niece. I arrived at my parents house at around 8 PM‚ not giving them any warning about

The love making had taken energy out of the Alpha King. Laying there in the grass‚ he relaxed for the first time in days. Everything in the world was in its natural order. More or less at least. His arms circled around his wife. Pulling her lithe form to his chest. Kissing her forehead as they lay together. "I’d thought I would lose you to death." he whispered. Feeling at ease with her so close and in good health. "But we’re together now. Nothing will stop our love. Nothing that we can’t conquer

Track And Field The track looked longer than it looked before. I could feel my legs shaking and I could barely breath. It was my first time running the 100 dash‚ and it was one of the scariest‚ most nerve racking moments of my life. I couldn’t help but feel like I was the new kid on the block. All these kids looked like they were trained their entire life for this one moment‚ and I didn’t even have the proper shoes or blocks( those things that runners put their feet on a the beginning ). I looked

So here I am walking down to the beach on one hot blazing day‚ must be another beautiful day in Laguna. I have lived here since I was about three years old and from what I can remember there have been have been no signs what so ever about sharks‚ shark nets and shark attacks being here. I see lots of beach huts with their own distinctive shapes and smell about them. The sea is water is so clear it is blue‚ pure blue.

It was a sleepy summer’s day and all I could think about was getting home and relaxing. The sun was gleaming down on us and glistened in our eyes as it reflected through all the droplets of water hanging off the shade cloth. The end of lunch bell finally rang and we all trudged to the lockers to get our books for fifth period. Food Technology. I only chose that subject because it was a bludge. And I guess everyone else there had the same idea as me‚ because they didn’t seem all that bright. We all

John and Carrie. I’m about to share with you one of the best‚ worst‚ and wildest experiences I have ever faced. It all started on a cold‚ September day‚ with it storming cats and dogs. I was in my bookshop‚ right next to the Blackleaf Lake‚ when he walked in. John was soaked from head to toe‚ and I just assumed it was from the storm. I got up off of the reading couch‚ and asked if he would like a towel and something dry to wear‚ and as I approached him I noticed what he was wearing. He looked

A MODERN FAIRYTALE :D Once upon a time… I hate to begin with this‚ starting it off as if it’s a happy story‚ a story that will have the ending of the famous last words; happily ever after. I will start this story again‚ this time with a different set out. One day‚ there was a young naïve girl named Mia who believed in ‘happily ever after’ and thought she had found her prince charming. Everything was perfect‚ beautiful romantic dates under the starry night and long walks by the seaside until one

“Our land hasn’t grown any crops for the last 3 years. We’ve got no money since we sold our pigs. I don’t know how much longer we can all survive here‚” I hear Ma say to Pa on the other side of my bedroom door. We have been going along with very little food since the start of the droughts in 1931. I know everyone’s suffering and has been for the last few years but we never wanted to admit it. Hearing those words out of my mother’s mouth made my head spin. It was as if reality finally hit me. It

It was a cold‚ bitter‚ sunny morning mid January. The previous night’s snowstorm had given hell‚ twenty-four new untouched inches were left on the ski mountain waiting for my friends and I. As the doors of the gondola close‚ an abundance of fog disrupted our vision. The doors opened once again after what felt like a lifetime. There we stood‚ looking down to the end of the run as we began to slowly make our way through the remarkably light powder. The snow was heavily up until a single patch of ice
