"He's going into anaphylactic shock." She said.

"How do you know?"

"He just said so." He said with an edge of frustration. The crowd watching and screaming 'help him!' were only making the atmosphere and the situation worse.

"Take 'im to a hospital!"

Maks recalled the steroids he saw in his pockets. He saw that his hand was lagging at the can of pills in his pocket. Steroids. His mind was trying to make the connections again. 'a risk of cancer and autoimmune diseases increasing and the chances of the patient developing food allergies ranging from moderate to severe are second to none.' He checked his pocket and read the label of the can of pills quickly. They were Cortiso-steroids and she gave Rex the smallest dose as possible and he gasped. Meg was in pieces. She looked like she might go into shock as well.

The crowd clapped while he recovered. Some of them were harried when he passed them quizzical looks.

"Rex, are you okay?" She said.

He was wheezing but he managed to nod.

    Maks kept up with her, and she grinned. As they hiked to the river. "Why is Meg being probed?""That was over hours ago and Rex can't talk." "You two poisoned Rex Rodriguez?" She poked."It was an accident." He said. "Meg would never do that...unless of course, she knew and just forgot." Watching the river currents. The med park was scanty. "Artemis found her lip balm and put it on her lip. "You could use this." "No thanks." He muffled when she swabbed his chapped lips. He thought this was the equivalent of being judo-flipped. "What are we looking for?" "Nothing, I just presumed you should go out more." She said while screwing the cover shut. "We're going to have karaoke.""You mean karate?" He was stiff-necked now.Artemis laughed. "You're so funny, man." "I left my homework because of you." He said. She stared at Maks as though he were talking gibberish. She fiddled with her swiss army knife. She wore a jean jacket, a green tube dress, and red baseball boots."Okay, let

    The isle was rocky with many impressive, She hopped down and Maks stepped up. He saw her grinning and frowned. "What?" "Nothing." She said and he plucked seaweed off his head. The water pushed against the sandy shore where their footprints were. There were no birds in the sky, the ones that passed by hardly lingered unless the load they were carrying were too heavy. He pulled out their gear and sized up the ropes. He wore a yellow jacket and refrained from using the torchlight to conserve the battery. He swallowed hard at the peak of the high cliff, a crevice beneath that looked like it could go on forever and ever. He could feel the cool breeze blowing out from the entrance. He climbed up the hill using his spider powers and he gazed at the plateau and the resilient plants breaking through the surface. He needed to get a bird's eye view of the entire island. It looked like a puma's head with its mouth open, trying to swallow a ball which was the second isle, little to no green

    "It's April the 5th." Maks let out. She blinked when he turned on the lights.Artemis noticed that he was being a bit too harsh. Sometimes, he was a bit too judgemental."April? I was here since 30th March.""What's your name?" Maks said."It's Harriett." She said weakly. They found a safer spot, although not big enough but safer to rest in, away from the bacterial filled water, frankly, the walls looked like they had oil spilled on them, they would continue their journey later. If only there was a way out and if only they could ration their meals. He was worried about his classes, his gig that he was going to miss. All because she was dragging him to do things that he wouldn't originally do on his own on a regular basis. She would be disappointed if she found out that he was just living off her and she wouldn't stop dragging him until god knows when as Harriet would put it. He wasn't in touch with his emotions, because they wouldn't solve anything. Even if Meg prodded him to talk a

    "8 of us, we were separated from experts after the reopening and we happened to miss everyone along the way.""And then you got attacked." Artemis said. "The attack was what caused the tumble in the first place. Unfortunately, I was caught up under the rocks. Coach seemed to be okay." "Yeah, he left you." Maks let out dryly. "Yep, the least he could have done was get you out of there but he didn't." The hair on their scalps rose at the sound of bats screeching. The noise was reverberating and horrendous. Maks quieted. Voices could be heard in the midst of rushing waters. "That's what I heard?" "Sounds like it is coming from the top. Quick, we can get out while it lasts."Harriet shifted on her good leg. They made an effort to follow the sound of its voice. Artemis lagged under Harriet's weight. They found a crack of light under the underpass. "That's it?" Harriet said and lagged. She let herself down on a rock, massaging her leg, at least it wasn't cold anymore. Just too hot.

    They drifted and he rubbed his arms, they felt as though they were going to fall off. Artemis looked back at what she would call Jiang Shi island, (Z*mbie island was already taken.) They were helped by a few people who had a motorized boat. Harriet was unconscious and handled by healthcare professionals. They were hospitalized and he had his shoulders disinfected. ... The authorities had a lot of questions about their whereabouts and the events that took place. Artemis came up with a lot of stories about mountain lions, and the flood, however, Harriett was skeptical about telling them about the Jiang Shi and she went with it. The school heard about their ordeal, the island was closed down for good. But he reckoned there would be some daredevils besides him trying to get on what this was all about. The assistant coach was missing and his body was never recovered. Maks felt small against the official proprietor of Griffin University, Mister Gael Griffith with well-combed grey ha

    "Two former cult members explain the difficulties they had extricating themselves from it." He was shocked at the news, Jason's body was taken away. He was brought in for questions by the police. He had an alibi but he was afraid it was not a very credible one. How would he tell them that he was battling with a flock of geese that kept getting in the way? His assassination was all so sudden. They found Jason with blood on his face and neck stab wounds. ...A modern eating fork is a blunt fork. An older fork wasn't really a tool for eating from but was more like one of the large meat forks one uses to carve a turkey or otherwise hold meat. The tines were longer and there were often fewer of them. On top of this, they were sharpened to a point.The difference is more like the difference between a sharp kitchen or steak knife and a dulled butter knife (even if it has a point). Sure, you can kill someone with the dull butter knife if it doesn't bend and you hit the right spots, but it

    [Cyanide poisoning?] He thought. The aerosol can make sense, the culprit must have thought a blunt fork would not do the trick. It took less than thirty minutes to kill a human being with that. The CSI agent spoke to the cops who lingered to take heed. Maks stayed in the background afraid to put one foot in. At least he knew the cause of his death. He got closer and the cleaner in a blue boiler suit whistled swabbing the cleaning solution off his cart. His eyes closed in on the aerosol can in the cart's compartment.Meanwhile, the students were not allowed to roam at the school quarters past eight pm at night. He thought about Francis waiting at home and the cleaner, he had to resign from his little stakeout before 8 pm. He flapped home and the cleaner went upstairs to check on the halls. The students were asked a few questions if they heard any sign of struggle before his demise. The fellows looked unnerved. When the cops asked who the last person to visit Jason was, (with a gua

    However, he braced himself when he saw an amur leopard running rampant on the streets. It raised havoc wherever it set in motion. The civilians panicked and it ran after in his direction. His system scanned it, it was an amur leopard. One of a near-extinct species that weighed 30 pounds less that the African leopard. The corner of his lip dropped and the best thing he could do was at least pacify it before it sunk its teeth into him. The leopard looked aggravated and it barred its yellowish teeth and sought freedom. He wondered if he could get money off it, he also reminded it that animal control was not going to make it easy for it to escape. Also, the streets were no place for a leopard and people were protective of their pets in case they wanted to prey on dogs. Thankfully, they were wary of humans and confrontation but it did not cancel out the chances of an attack. He stayed well away from it and the group in uniform aimed their tranquilizing gun at it and shot it down. ... Ma

    He shuddered. Those men didn't deserve to live, he clutched his pillow. The day after that was the time he started to realize that he could see dead people. These people were crooks, they sold him to a factory disguised as an orphanage home. Teagan's breathing was heavy at the women asking for his name. He had a hard time communicating, he didn't want to. They shaped him up by beating him. The worst he had was being covered with a sack if he mishbehaved and the tap running over his face until he gave in. He always had a hard time following routines. He lived with an abusive foster father named Randall Barton, his wife Alice and their adopted children, he trusted him to his word. He took care of him gradually until he started to get violent. He even employed the children to beat him up. He asked what was the point of adopting him. Unfortunately all he was good for was being a punching bag. The only good thing he learned was English. His imaginary friends translated and taught him to s

    Teagan looked anxious, he slouched walking through the gates. The workers grimaced at him and BlackJack picked up speed. He ran to the house and he paled when he met Ares. "Where have you been!?" Keisha said."I just went for a walk." Teagan said twirling his hand on his leash."I know you went to...You're not allowed to step outside. Running away was completely stupid." Keisha said aware now and he blushed at Harley. "Yeah, I know, I just needed some fresh air. I'm alive aren't I?" He barked defensively. He was acting weird. He bloomed walking away faster. He couldn't handle criticism. He marched upstairs and the room was as dirty as it was before. He was repulsed. "You didn't clean yet?" He said to Keisha who relaxed on the couch.She dropped her magazine. "I'm sorry I said all those mean things about you.""We're cool. Just as long as long as you don't keep any weapons. No more pranks, not more antics." She said. "Clean this up.""Where are all the ghost workers?""They're on a

    "Not that one, Chief. I was born in Nigeria, West Africa. The Igbos, a major ethnic group currently were looking for independence to become The Biafrans after the British colonialists united the tripod stands of the country, the east, north and the western region.The colonizers left eventually after the independence in 1960. There was a blockade and My father Festus Ebube Okoye who identified as a Biafran and my mother Catherine Nneoma Okoye starved along with the rest of our people. He was passionate about seperating from Nigeria. The Biafrans lost the war against the Nigerians ultimately and there was no secession. My father was wounded inside and out. We had to move here to save our hides. My father had a score with Ares to settle. They worked together in the past. He owed him his life and he wanted some kind of reward for aiding him."So Ares supports this kinds of stuff?""Yeah. He wanted him to "give him what rightfully belonged to him". His loyalty. My siblings were just 9,7,6

    "N_no no, I'll show you." Teagan tossed BlackJack's dented log at the glass doubledoors and it shattered to pieces.Irma's jaw dropped. "You broke it, is something wrong with you?" She glanced at a broom by the door perking up and moving in a sweeping motion to gather up the glass. Irma glanced at Teagan who looked shocked. His expression changed. "See?""As dumb as that demonstration was, it's brilliant.""Really?...I mean yes. I'm more genius than any of you give me credit for." He gazed at his fingernails."You can hear them.""Yes." He said smiling proudly. "Okay then, what's he saying?" She asked and he blushed. Maybe she thought the ghost standing there was just a coincidence.Irma winced at the inappropriate words. "@#$¥ *&?@@@####. Why are you helping you f#cking bitch?""Okay, that's enough." She said alarmed. "It's a kid named Oscar...he's 19.

    Over the days, Teagan moved around the house, he cursed at the workers and vandalized things, Ares didn't show the slightest interest or whether to kick him out. He was perplexed. Harley, Irma and Keisha were in their final year and they were going to college. And parties. He was left home alone with BlackJack whom he was afraid of. BlackJack was trying to approach him and he ducked throwing pillows at him.BlackJack grabbed a pillow chasing after him. He ran away past the halls and cried out when BlackJack placed his paw on his chest. "Stop." Ares said to him and he vanished. Teagan gazed at him through glassy eyes. Ares vanished too.... Ares was not even giving Irma a hard time as Keisha claimed to. He didn't trust her to her words anyway. He taught her to kick box and she was getting tired of doing the same moves all the time. She meandered around a sandbag punching and kicking.Teagan watched them from a boulder with binoculars as she lunged backwards.Irma tried the s

    Teagan was afraid that she would shred them to pieces. Worst of all, Ares was coming home to meet him. He didn't like the looks of him. His aura made him feel things and see things he didn't want to see, yet he was easily drawn to the past, he relived it everyday in his head. That was why he wanted to stay as far away from Ares as possible.He lived with assassins too. Irma arrived with Harley in the house of Ares. Irma ducked at the box drifting over her head. "What are those?""Ghost workers, they agreed to work for Ares in death." "Until after death you mean?""They won't be leaving anytime soon, they can keep working for him if they want.""Oh my god. What if some of them try to kill him or you?""They won't. They have a contract." Harley said.Irma shook her head as they explored the house. "So this is where you live?" "Yes and No, I live with my dad, Eric. I just come here for visits.""So how is he?"Harley turned sad, he suffered 10 years of tragedy but the tragedy wasn't

    "Will you come lie next to me?" He said.He groaned she laid back too hard. "Scooch." She could hear the fluids in his lungs while he was breathing. The place was so quiet. She would rather be anywhere else talking to a person than being her with her thoughts, but he was sick."I can feel the gurgling too, that's disgusting and don't even try to kiss me with that virus." She was content.He was feeling feverish and tried to make conversation. "My head hurts...""Mmm.""I'm sure letting you stay in bed with me is probably against hospital policy.""You're such a bad boy." She said sarcastically.They were together now and she did not want to infringe on their pact. "Can I use my phone?""That's fine, it gets boring in the hospital anyway." He said fatigued and he had a sense of Deja vu. "Please don't take pictures of me like this, I look sick."She typed. "It's fine. I just need it for my secret album. What do you think about #Marley?" She flooded the space with many heart emojis."Tha

    "You need to stop playing games.""Really, you wanna talk game? You were trying to make me jealous with Irma." His eyebrows rose. "I wasn't.""What was that look. Really? When we were at that night club, you were staring at her. Like really staring."Irma exhaled. "Oh my god, you guys." She muttered rolling her eyes. "Yeah because we had a duet. I was nervous and I tend to look at people dead in the eye when that happens_Maybe I was jealous when you started feeding Dom orange slices.""Only because he was making rude advances. I had to protect myself.""You left me on the street after date night.""Yeah, you were having car trouble and I was trying to be friendly and to save money." She whispered. "You could have just said you were angry instead of shutting me out.""Oh." He said, he was unreasonable when it came to love and the reason why he strangely felt short was because she was still on heels.

Alberto spat on the floor. "Now, what is going on? You get off him.""Sorry, Tio, he locked Horacio up again and now he's harra_""What's going on?" Dom rose up. "She's been spending all my money on this useless son of a bitch." He yelled at Harley. "You won't even let me touch you!"Harley's eyes glistened at the name-calling.
