The Next Death; Chapter 6
The next day, my new schedule is in effect. I still have AP Lang first hour and AP Chem third hour with Emma and Riley. I now have AP gov fourth period and Calculus second period. This still gives me lunches with Emma and Riley. I also stop by the office to get a new ID that lists the periods I don't have classes.

She Never Said 'Let Them Eat Cake'
Episode 3 Shelia could not stop smiling. She had discovered and blown up the local Insane groups’ insanely large arsenal. By herself she destroyed all that potential for hurting people. She kept seeing in her mind all the weapons in that decrepit barn on Bedbug Road. Bedbug Road had surprisingly well manicured crushed stone for having mostly empty and abandoned lots on both sides.

The White Estate
December had wrought a fierce winter upon the town. Victoria had lingered in the sitting room most of the day, watching the grey sky as it littered snowflakes across her lawn. She had neglected her duties, to her own shame, as she sank into a mood darker than the clouds above her, for today was a grave day; a reminder that she was still alone, unwed, and bitter. A disappointment not only to her parents, who desperately wished for her to embark upon the next stage of her life's journey, but also to herself. She wished to remove herself from this manor, whose walls reminded her of entrapment, whose fields swept long and unending, like the depression that had taken her in her younger years.

The Kitchen Table
At the kitchen table in an old farmhouse, we sat and talked for what felt like hours. The cake in front of us disappeared as we took in each other’s words; and when the last piece had been scooped off the plate, she collected the dishes and rose from her seat. An audible silence fell over the room, and I could hear each of her steps as she shuffled to the counter –just as well as I could feel everything that was left unsaid. She rested the plates in the kitchen sink, and then gripped the edge of the counter as she took in a deep breath. She sighed the air back out into the room, and I could feel the shaking in her chest.

Within and Without [Part 1]
Liam stepped hesitantly into the study, feeling a strange sense of detachment despite his many years in this house. He had been with Mr Device for over fifty years and had enacted each command to the T for every one of them. He was on amicable terms with the entire Device family and there wasn’t a place on the grounds he couldn’t go, nor a facility he couldn’t use. Except the study. The one thing Mr Device had absolutely insisted on was the study being off-limits to everyone else.
