Just Can't Die
CARTER COULD STILL HEAR the screams and gunshots echoing out from the fiery valley behind him and his crew. The last week had been filled with the same screams of terror and sharp cracks of any gun the terrified could get their hands on. The wind had vanished almost altogether, the autumn trees frozen in time and any flag not ripped from its base was flat as a sheet of paper. Yet somehow, the stench of death and those awful sounds still carried over the mountains.

The Blue Ribbon Part 2
Evening wears on day turns into night Father sits and looks at the phone, waiting for it to ring. He fumbles with the radio tuning it to the nearest Radio station to see if there are updates. "Just in!" The excited weatherman shouts, "Severe weather headed our way. It looks like it's going to be a rough night, folks."

The Nucleus Jewel
Heart Shaped Locket Waking up on the Fourth of July it’s dark outside. I look at my clock and it's noon. This eerie feeling comes over me. I jump out of my bed in anxiousness to peek out my window. As I slowly open up my sheer white curtains. I look out to my lawn.. nothing out of the ordinary. I slip on my slippers and I walk downstairs in confusion. The house is dark and warm. Walking past the mirror in the hallway, I take a quick look to run my fingers through my hair feeling drowsy and hungry. I check the time on the stove.. 12:05 PM. A new daylight savings? I open the refrigerator to start cooking breakfast. I grab eggs and pancakes. As I start to shut the fridge door I hear a knock on the front door. I quickly turned my head, thinking who could that be? heading towards the front door I grab my cardigan off the dining room chair. I answer. It’s a Man in a linen grey suit tightly holding folders to his chest. Man- “Hello” (he says awkwardly) “Are you Rebecca?” Who’s asking? The Man hesitates. Choking on his words, I stand there patiently waiting for him to spit them out.

Red Eyed Nuns and Their Habits
Vf They do not give warning to their appearance and never speak. The soft black cloth they wear does not stand out from the normal garb of other nuns. The only feature that makes you second guess are the white clay masks they wear. Flat, smooth and blank. Only two holes for peering eyes to see through. They walk in a diamond formation of four. No one knows if there are more than four, just that they are only seen in one group at a time.

Bedtime Story: Godfather Death
As a child, I don’t remember much about the stories my mom read to me, but I remember the ones I chose to read. I spent many nights reading the original Grimm Brothers’ Fairy Tales. Anyone who has read these stories knows how gruesome they truly can be. However, most of the stories recorded by the Grimm Brothers keep a great deal of the graphic details to the reader’s imagination. There is one story that stuck with me for years and I still go back and reread. The story titled “Godfather Death” will always be my favorite. It is centered around a man who has many children, all of whom have godparents. However, the man’s last child does not have a godparent yet as there is no one in the village left who is willing to take on that responsibility. The man goes out in search of a godparent for his child and comes across God, the Devil, and Death. God offers to be the man’s godparent, but the man declines because God lets the rich get richer and poor get poorer. After, the Devil offers to be the child’s godparent and the man declines because the Devil tricks innocent people and damns them to Hell. Finally, the man comes upon Death and accepts his offer to be the godparent of his child because Death treats everyone as equal.

Absense
Her name is Tracy. She is fourteen years old in this picture. The picture in the heart-shaped locket on a gold-plated chain. Her long, brown hair is parted in the center and cinched up in two pigtails. Her big, brown eyes sparkle and the curl of her smile makes me wonder what mischief she is up to. I think as I walk through unfamiliar forests, will I recognize her if I find her, no, when I find her. How will she react when she sees me? I continuously practice what I will say to her as I tramp through fallen leaves and weave my way around twigs and branches and other detritus. I have little to steal: A bedroll, a knife, an air rifle and a few sundries that make the journey a bit less of an ordeal. The most valuable item is, of course, Tracy in a locket. My head throbs, has been since before I left. There was that week I was down sick and delirious, it scared me. So, I packed up and snuck out of the neighborhood, dodging patrols all along the way.

The Feast
There are rules and if you want to break those rules feel free. Just don’t think you’ll be able to come crying to me. Not that I wouldn’t want to help you, it’s just you might not make it back to me in the first place. So for your sake follow the rules won’t you, the main ones are fairly simple. Rules are as follows: never leave the compound at night, don’t approach other pods, wear protective gear, and always double-tap a zale.
