Adventure
The Siren's Call (And the breaking of My limitations)
I had never seen the Atlantic Ocean like this before. Rich blue waves crashing against rocky cliffs and arches, while small Iberian hares munched on the wild grass that rippled along the winding hills where a single paved road ventured through. My face stared inches away from the glass window, mesmerized by the scenic views surrounding the little black car I sat in. My Uber driver, Adao, sang a Portuguese song on the radio in a low mumble to himself.

Run with the Pack: Chapter 6
Elha, the lone she-wolf, and Bahr, the lone bachelor wolf, continued to roam and patrol the forest in company. Sometimes the two-wolf grouping (for it could hardly be called a pack) would be led by Elha and sometimes Bahr would take the lead. Mostly, the two wolves would roam freely without giving much thought to their direction of travel but inevitably the direction of both wolves would end up being roughly the same. In this way, the two wolves moved in company together.

Guinea Pigs on the High Seas
Captain Chuffy, of the HMS Parsnip, surveyed the view across his ship, sails fluttering gently in the breeze. He stood up on his hind paws and sniffed the salty air, his round, beady eyes fixed to the West. Somewhere, beyond the sea, somewhere, waiting for him, was a strange new (old) world. The land his forefathers had come from, generations before, was out there. And today, he would leave this green and pleasant shore to set sail for parts unknown.

The Living Arc Angels part 5. Content Warning.
(“NARRATED”) The angels walked in silence through the streets paying little attention to the chaos that surrounded them. Everyone’s thoughts, most of all Tyler and Andrea’s, were on the innocent child that had been in their arms only a few hours ago. For a moment Andrea looked up and gazed in front of them. There in the road dressed in black jeans; black shirt; and a long black jacket, his face hidden by his hood, stood a man. His head facing toward the ground but it was obvious he was looking in their direction. “Guys, I think we may have trouble heading our way.” She couldn’t see his face, but she could feel his eyes on her. Looking just behind the dark figure she could see a teenage boy slowly approaching him from behind. Just then she saw the boy’s hand in the air holding a bat. She began to scream out a warning, but before she could the mysterious man had already turned toward the boy. Nothing could be seen but a burst of blood and the sudden blank expression upon the young boy’s face.

The Death of Class
Too bad I couldn’t have bottled that weekend with my boyfriend, Jake, and carried it around in my pocket for the next month. Every day I convinced myself that either he had forgotten about me and was happily back home with his wife trying to procreate, or he had met another girl as dumb as I was and had forgotten me.
