“You have ninety seconds to hide. If you are found, you die. Good luck.”
Cody Herbert’s voice was threatening and sinister. His words sent ripples of fear down Ally’s spine. They made her joints stiffen. Every finger and every toe. She could crack her neck in the same way that Grampa did when he woke up in the morning.
Why did she have to play at the park today? Right now, huddled under the jun...
Peter had signed up to pick up trash because Jenny Sinclair had signed up. She'd signed up as soon as the notice had gone up three weeks ago. Peter had signed up two days ago. He didn’t want to spend his Saturday morning picking up trash on the beach with his co-workers. He’d only signed up to get closer to Jenny...and she was nowhere in sight.
"I mean, maybe she's running late?" muttered Brian o...
"What the fuck is that?" Cal's voice was hoarse and dry, in desperate need of water...just like the rest of us.
"That's a baby seal," Aria replied. She inched forward, shoes cutting through the soft sand, hands poised upward in defense. However, the baby seal didn't seem to pose a threat. It didn't seem to see the desert as a threat as we did. It blinked its eyelashes at the three of us, then rub...
He puts a towel over my head. It’s dry and coarse. It smells, but I can’t pinpoint what it smells like…and maybe that’s for the best.
I can’t see him, but Glasses starts screaming at me. I can feel his spittle across my neck. It’s warm in the cold, and in a strange way welcome.
Someone wheels me toward the faucet. My first guess is Glasses, but the arms are wheeling me from the left. Glasses i...
On Wednesday, they burned the bodies. They did it at 7 a.m. on the dot, just as the sun was coming up. Clint said it was best to do it in the morning and joked that their neighbor's breakfast cooking would mask the smell of burning bodies.
Joked.
Clint’s tone came off as joking, but Laine didn’t think he was. She stood in the backyard, hands tucked under her armpits for warmth. Exhaling plumes...
The dolphins were the fastest way across Carmel Lake. Why that’s a thing, I’ll never know. I don’t really know how anything makes sense in ZipZopBoop Land. I get that dolphins can swim (duh), but how they can navigate with such finesse through something as thick as caramel is the thing that confuses the daylights out of me.
Kimmy says. “They just do Daddy. Dolphins would be the fastest swimmers ...
On Tuesday night a rainbow appeared in the sky that seemed to cover the entire globe. I was sitting in my living room watching television when I saw countless posts about it on Instagram. My first thought wasn't that it was beautiful, and it definitely wasn't to rush outside to get a video of it for The Gram. No, my first thought was that there was something very wrong with our planet. I'm aware t...
Neil hadn’t been happy in a long time. In fact he couldn’t remember the last time that he was happy. He’d spent countless nights trying to figure out when the weight of the world had collapsed onto him, and he didn’t quite have a hold on that either. He thought it had happened about twenty years ago, back in Junior High…but he wasn’t sure.
So, he didn’t know what to think when he found the butto...
"Take my hand!"
"No Way!!" Dane shrieked.
"I'm not asking you to marry me, I'm trying to save your life!!"
Dane still refused. He just bobbed up and down in the ocean as the shark's fin got closer and closer, a stubborn man until the very end.
"Is this really because I have dry hands? I'm soaking wet is that really your issue right now?? Are you that petty?"
The fin got larger, and then I saw...
