Ciara’s mind kept racing as she lay in bed. She just stared at the lines of sunlight that ran across her ceiling as she ran over yesterday’s events. Part of her wanted to believe that what Mr. Murphy had said to her was just a product of him being old and paranoid. However, there was a nagging part of her that believed what he said. This worried her. She was worried that the new life she created was crumbling down around her again. Despite the fact that it involved Deaglan, the man who killed her loved ones, she didn’t want to lose him. Ciara couldn’t handle losing another person who cared about her, no matter the fact that he was the devil incarnate. It’s better to have someone than no one. Ciara’s hands were shaking the entire car …show more content…
Deaglan motioned for her to take a seat. “I heard you had a bad day yesterday,” he said to her with a calm, but concerned tone. “Well, I want you to take the next few days off. You’ve been one of our best employees and you deserve a few days to treat yourself.” He then handed her a big envelope. With a surprised look on her face, she took the envelope and carefully opened it. Her eyes opened with excitement. Inside the envelope was a wad of cash and a gift certificate to a local spa. “I will have my driver take you to the spa where you can spend the day getting pampered head to toe. Then, when you are done, he will take you on a shopping spree. You can buy whatever you want, where ever you want.” Ciara couldn’t believe that he or anyone would do such a thing for her. “Thank you so much!” she said to Deaglan. She gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. She felt her shaky hands slowly begin to finally calm down. Ciara felt like a weight had been lifted as she made her rounds for the day. She felt like nothing could bother her. In fact, nothing did bother her. Even when Mr. Murphy tried to talk to her when she stopped by; his words seemed to bounce off of her. She couldn’t wait for her days off. It had been a long time since Ciara did something for herself and herself alone. When her day was finally over, Ciara’s heart began to race with excitement. She was so excited, she had are hard time falling asleep that

The Hollow rattled with the passing of another subway train. The myriad of screens flickered and fussed as the train went by, and the sounds of multiple news screens were muted by its rumbling. It never lasted for more than a minute, though. When the train passed the screens came back in all their vibrance. All of them detailed the same thing, too. Plummeting stocks in commodities, rising stocks in securities, and a near perpetual loop of Bastion falling to the ground. Even the Daily Show had their…

Tera kept hold of OZ as he sailed through the air, her eyes scanning the ground below them for any other signs of the twilights making chase. They had only spotted two, but Tera was never one to just relax and think she was safe before things were really clear. Hell in a way Tera never felt safe, her body always seemed ready for danger, and she even slept with at least two weapons near her every night. It was tiring for sure, but in a city like Ergastulum letting your ground down meant accepting…

I walked into a big round room that was completely empty. Except, there was a chair in the center with someone sitting it it. The someone was the creator. The creator was wearing a white skirt that seemed to be way too big for them. The creator had their hair tied up in a messy bun. “ I am surprised that you’ve made it. No one has ever--” “ I know, one has ever made it to the promised-milk-and-honey-land,” I said getting annoyed and wanting them to reveal himself. “ Yes, but now since you have…

Carl, the lone carbon, awoke with a thud. His eyes dilated with fear. He gazed at the bone marrow crushing and scraping against a cylindrical shiny object. He got out of his cubby and stared at the chaos beneath him. Everything was collapsing. The bone he was in was in complete entropy. At that moment, Carl knew his whole five years in the deer have come to an end. All he could do was stare at the decomposition of his host, his everything. The shattering of his heart pounded him like bricks as he…

Two weeks had passed and the base remained mostly uneventful. A sad looking, zombie attempted the newly rebuilt fence but was dispatched only after numerous shots to its emaciated body brought it down and its odd looking helmet was removed for the final blow from a baseball bat. The helmet was stuffed with foam batting, covering the majority of its head and face. It was a curious creature but effected little mention outside of casual conversation. All-in-all, it was forgotten almost as quickly…

I took the slime out and started playing with it. Doris and I were playing with the slime, but then suddenly my mom came in! Doris and I fearfully looked at…

“I’m still so worried about my parents. What in the world am I going to tell my mom to keep her from going crazy again?” Dan, sitting across the aisle from Joan, calmly responded “We’ll figure it out later, we’ll be landing in Albuquerque soon and I’m going to take this time to catch up on some sleep. We have a while to drive once we land, we can figure it out then.” Without a single word, Dan, seemingly instantaneously laid back, and drifted off to sleep. Joan’s brain was running on overdrive…
