I was lost. Trees stretched out, in every direction, as far as I could see. I turned in a circle, not sure where I had come from or where I should have been going. I could feel rain drops on my skin, and see the leaves on the trees weighed down from the water pouring from the sky. I was in a forest and I felt the hope I’d gained from my escape slowly slip away. They would find me. It was only a matter of time. I closed my eyes, while still turning in a slow circle and counted to 7, my lucky numb

Darkness greeted me when I opened my eyes. I didn't even know why I bothered setting my alarm anymore. Ever since 'the incident' I've had a tendency of waking up way before my alarm. Usually two or three hours before. It made getting a full night's sleep a thing of the past. I climbed out of bed, and after double checking that my windows and bedroom door were closed and locked, I went to the bathroom and turned on the shower. I only climbed in when the steam filled the room and the water wa

1995 The first thing Officer Perkins noticed when he walked into the rundown apartment 1B, was a toddler boy, clinging to the emaciated corpse of, what could only have been, his mother. The boy was covered in blood and dirt, and to Perkins surprise, wasn't crying. "Davis... We have a situation here." Perkins called through the radio to his partner, "Get crime scene in here, and call child services." His partner had gone to speak to the other residents of the building. S

A young girl faces a trauma even the strongest of adults would have trouble dealing with. She escapes a miserable future for one of hope. Until her past comes comes back to haunt her. Will she be able to claim her life back, or will it be claimed for her?

Tomas sighed and turned to the other man. “Where do we begin Nicolas?” The other man, Nicolas, huffed and ran his hand down his face. He walked over to a liquor cabinet that was opposite a fireplace that gave me a huge sense of déjà vu, grabbed a decanted bottle of golden coloured alcohol and poured four glasses, then handed them out to the rest of us. Tomas took his happily, Midge took hers like she was on autopilot, and I took mine somewhat reluctantly, but I kept it because I had a

That is something that will only come out near the middle of the book

I stood where my body should have been standing, except I was staring at my body lying on the ground. What the hell? Midge ran over to where I was sprawled out on the floor, almost breaking her ankle in doing so. I could hear her cursing her heels under her breath. Tomas was on his knees next to me as well. No other person actually showed any interest, like they saw someone almost die every day. I didn’t know how I knew, but I knew I was going to die. I mean, how else would I explain the ou

“Good evening ladies.” The guy said to us as he reached the table where we were standing awkwardly. “I couldn’t help but notice how out of place you looked.” It sounded like an insult, but his tone was gentle. “Well this isn’t our usual scene.” I said to him in return. “How is it that you came to be here tonight?” he asked as he grabbed a glass of wine from one of the passing waiters. “We were invited by Chase Mathews.” He showed no surprise at my words. Midge stood close

I will amend it to normal standards.

According to my grandparents, it includes the cummerbund and accessories. Though this isn't something that I am familiar with.

“He said no…” I was gobsmacked. I’d called Declan to ask him if he’d join us at the masquerade, and he flat out declined. Midge shrugged. “His loss.” I threw my phone on her bed. “But, I mean. He seemed so interested back at varsity…” “He’s a twotwaffle Gen. Just leave it at that.” I plopped down on the bed next to midge, making her bounce. “Ok, so, what’s the game plan for tonight?” My crazy best friend looked at me with an evil glint in her eye. “Well the shindi

The first thing I did as I walked out of the exam room was pull out my box of smokes. I was finally finished with my second year of varsity. I could physically feel my shoulders relax. I was not going to think about my marks or whether or not I was getting into third year or not. I was just going to enjoy my time off. “Gen! What do you think you’re doing?” My best friend Midge ran up to me almost panting. “Hey slow down, short legs here.” “What do you mean, what am I doing?” I held up m
