I groggily woke up after some period of time in the middle of complete darkness. As I reared my head around and examined the room, I noticed I was tied to someone behind me. The rope that connected us was thick and rough. It wrapped around our waists and was tied in an impossible knot. I tried to observe our surroundings, but the cell was completely dark. I could barely see my own feet in front of me. I turned around to see who was tied to me, but I could not recognize her in the dark. The woman was sleeping and looked about middle-aged with long hair that draped over her face. I thought I recognized her from somewhere but I couldn’t identify her.

Suddenly, the lights flickered on and the woman’s hair fell from her face as she moved in her sleep. When the woman rolled around, I suddenly recognized the woman as my beautiful wife. I wondered why my captors brought in my wife and what …show more content…
The rope, although thick and untieable, could possibly be cut with the spike through my wife. I determined that it was possible to cut the rope in the short time it would take for the spike to reach me. Quickly, I tugged the rope with my hands and sawed it along the bloody spike. By now, the screams had stopped and my wife was dead. The rope became a bloody mess. I could not bear to look up and see my wife’s torturous expression on her face, but I had to continue cutting the rope. Seconds turned into minutes, and minutes turned into hours. The rope slowly loosened until there was no more but a few strands holding it together. The spike began to graze my back. It then went through the first layer of my skin. But I didn’t stop sawing, as freedom was so close in sight. At last, when the final strand was broken, I collapsed from exhaustion and rolled away from the spike. I had escaped another death trap, but I did not save my wife. The pain, both physical and emotional, was too much for me. I fell into a deep

“Jane, come over here please” her dad demanded harshly. Wasting no time at all Jane scurried over. “What is it dad?” Jane asked. “We need to talk. You know how we have been trying for a very long time to get into the Ukraine terrorist group computer data?” “Yeah. Why?” “Well, we did. We’re in.” All I could think of was why was he having this conversation with me? Why me? Out of all the people why me? I just stared at him for like twenty minutes it felt like. Until finally I blurted out. “Okay…

When I got there it was about 6:30 P.M. I wanted to make sure I had enough time to spray me and my area. I also had bought some cameras to set up on all of the floors. I especially would set one up on the top of the staircase leading to the 2nd floor. As it grew later I could feel the hair on my neck stand up. I knew something was about to happen. What would she do this time? Would she hurt me? Would I die? I shouldn't of come. I'm so stupid! Finally I heard the laugh. I looked everywhere but couldn't…

Ayres.Session1.Journal Everybody has had something in life happen that has made them who they are today. Whether it was good or bad or both. I, like many people, have dealt with both. I was raised by my grandmother and uncle. It wasn’t an ideal raising but I was loved and taken care of in a very caring home. My grandmother, Meme, was always there for me through everything. Any time I needed any kind of help she made sure I got it. When she passed away On Jan 30th, 2013 I thought my own life had went…

Mr. Shapiro, Hello, if you're reading this I'd just like to thank you for your time. I know you have a lot of other things that you need to attend to, truly I do appreciate it, and in an instance as such, I think an experienced opinion would be wise to consult. On Friday, April 27th, at the high school I attend (Urbana High School, MD) held a protest advocating for LGBTQ+ "civil liberties" and "taking a stand" against the oppressor majority of marginalized groups. The demonstration consisted…

My first instinctive reaction to what had occurred was to run, as far as I could. I didn’t understand anything that was going on, I was the one who killed that deer, both of them and I was sure that I might try to do the same thing again. I looked towards the sky and my eyes were greeted with the light of the silvery full moon shining beautifully as it had when Ethan and I had first escaped this horror. However, where before it had shown mockingly above the chaos and devastation, it now shown with…

I have always loved to climb rocks and jump from crack to crack, but heights have never been my thing . But in this summer of 2013 I got to take to a whole new level. I was going to Zion National Park with my mom, dad, brother,and sister. We were all excited about what we were about to do but at the sametime nervous. None of us had ever gone repelling so it was a first for all of us. When we arrived at the wooden guide building they prepped us on the fun yet dangerous activity we were about to embark…

I grinned in anticipation. I had been planning this for months. We’d finished distributing the antidote to the Eastern Commonwealth and now almost all of the American Republic. We were finally going to the one place I’d wanted to go ever since getting arrested. New York City. While I was in prison, I had planned it all out. I would park the Rampion in a hangar just outside of the city and get an apartment in the center of the city, as close to the best clubs as possible. I had never taken into account…

Personal Narrative-Sacrifice Murders

There was much commotion in town concerning the string of strange murders. Men and women of all races, shapes, hair colors, and ages were brutally killed, and–more often than not–mutilated beyond recognition, something unheard of in the town. Despite the so-called ‘horrific’ crimes–so-called because, as horrific as murder is, horrific is not a strong enough word to describe the gruesome nature of the murders and there weren’t many appropriate words–and the rising number of them, no significant evidence…

Personal Narrative-Sacrifice For Murder

“Other than a full-blown assault on us from U.A.C.T.?” he said. “There’s many reasons why we can’t go out and take what we want. The first being, once we do slaughter an innocent, the temptation to consume their flesh right then and there would be too great for even the strongest of us. We would end up ingesting the meat right on the spot, and we would end up just like Elliot, Jeff, and Calvin. And, the person who we had killed would also end up that way, resulting in the flesh in which we wanted…

Personal Narrative-Sacrifice In Today's Society

Alex's pov “In today's society everything is legal. No one does bad things anymore. The world is harmless. The government has been destroyed and know everyone makes the decisions based on God and Jesus. Welcome to our society.” I look around as the recording plays over. New members walk across a line and the doors shut behind them. It's a boy around the age of 14 and a girl around 7, but they have no mom and dad. An older man takes them to a room and he turns on a machine. They have already gotten…
