They clapped hands and Maks left. He had no way of deciphering how or why Meg would go to such lengths for a cat. He brushed off that thought His eyes lit up when the blue panel materialized. He saw the numbers were running.You have been allotted the Giraffe! And the Kangaroo!The Giraffe is plausibly prey in the food chain, it can also pose to be a dangerous animal when threatened. The Kangaroo is not afraid of predators but is still very wary of humans and dingoes....Aaron Branch heard from his uncle in the wee hours of the morning. His hand clenched on the phone. His fingers tapped on the surface of Jason's reading desk"Hello, Aaron." His uncle Richard Dawkins said, he had a big afro, mixed skin color and blue eyes, gap teeth, and a soul patch.He wore a suit with white loafers and he crossed his legs. "Wassup Uncle." He said, his stomach did a backflip."Did you make any friends lately..." He said in a baritone voice."Not that I can think of...But I've got the target in
Maks was retrieved from the boulders under the bridge. He shuddered at the massive burns on his face, his skin felt like warm adhesive. He couldn't feel anything except for the pain deep down. His arm was blistery. He could barely swallow. His head reeled from dizzy spells, up was down, down was up, and phantom pains on his missing finger. The room he was in didn't paint a very pretty picture, he spilled his guts. With a shaky breath, he assessed the room, his chest tightened, there were lemon-green walls, and the floors were covered in an ugly beige rug. A rickety old red nightstand was there too. "Help!" He glanced at the walls and the ceiling, he clutched his stomach with his good arm, he ground his teeth at the sudden pain mounting in his stomach, and he jolted up at the terror on every side. He broke out in a sweat, short of breath at the cage, as the dog seemed to take on a more fantastic appearance. It grew gills and shadowy skin. It approached him. The walls came up in flame
The monsters were agitated He gazed at the cages rattling and the monsters who looked like rhinos with the head of worms segmented into four parts like flowers with sharp teeth. They rammed against the bars. "Run."Maks rolled away from centerstage and Aaron grinned. He turned to him wondering how he managed to pull it off. He rolled down the labyrinth, and the guards and awakeners glared at him. They threw all sorts of objects at him and they laughed hard to add to the cobblestone of his humiliation. He rolled slowly to the entrance and looked back. Hoping he didn't make a mistake, they all hated him for one thing he did or the other. He fought without thinking about the consequences and now he had to pay the price. He swallowed hard and he rolled out. The house was rickety and isolated, he had a photo of Artemis in his pocket. He looked left and right on the road. Where was he going to begin? The bounty hunters would be on the lookout, he knew people who would be eager to get hi
Melvin marched down the stairs. Melvin couldn't even recognize him. He looked away and cried going back upstairs."Dad?..." He had a tagged as a murderer now. His entire family was a laughing stock all because of what he did. Elvis was missing, he didn't dare took them in the eye. What was he supposed to do? Jessica dragged her skipping rope into the house and his eyes lowered timidly. He deserved everything hurled his way. Her eyes rounded at Maks."Jess." She walked past him like he was a ghost, he reckoned that she was seven years old now, about the age of reasoning. The neighbours glared at him and sniffed. "He killed someone.""Shh, we'll let the police do the talking." They came to visit but he knew quite well that they wanted their fill of the gory details. They left half disappointed."You've been gone, for a whole year...""It's only been a month." He croaked. "A month? It took you this long to get in trouble. Do you think this is a joke? Huh? Tell me!" His green eye
He wished he didn't pass over his roommates' important details."Artemis isn't 5 feet 5. She's 5 feet 7. Your facts are all doctored. You're wrong!"The jury gasped. The prosecutor sneered. "That is incredibly weird and immaterial.""She said so. And_" He wanted to break out of his chair. But he held back angrily."Mister Anderson, can you wait till it's your turn to get an appeal?" The judge said.He tempered. ... Maks was held in custody, he didn't know how long this trial would take, and he couldn't leave the house without people assailing him with insults and curses. It did not hurt as much as not being able to walk but it did make him anxious. The prosecutor stood before the judge once more. The jury muttered. "Your honor..." He began."Proceed.""We found physical evidence of the suspect's behavioral pattern." He glared at Maks like he had the key to his destiny at the moment and he was not getting it back. "He's a habitual smoker. He uses a good deal of narcotics and his
For days he felt like a bullfrog who had air stuck in his throat. About to explode, he was sure the caretakers would have questions about his whereabouts. Flying felt relieving and at the same time stressful.... Artemis smirked when Hamface formed a trench with his foot. The tip of his tusk was as bloody as the look in his eyes."You.""Hehe." It only made him angrier. REEEK!He lowered himself with his horn in view. "Hamface, is a one-man train." He blurted with spit spurting out and he went wild. She stretched over him and he rammed into the other ugly trolls, they scattered like bowling pins. He rolled over missing his other tusk. Artemis chuckled and stomped on the cockroaches."Oops." Aaron Branch grinned. He hurried toward the box long forgotten and picked it up while the monsters flanked her in their pathetic attempt to put her down. His uncle would be proud of his exploits. Richard Dawkins snatched the hexagonal box and pulled out the Ziploc bag full of mystical dragon
Two plants did not go together in the same pot, more or less ten. One person could not handle all that power, unless it was Halo, the person was the pot or the container. The seeds would only grow and tangle themselves up until they suffocated and withered. So it was only a question of how much he could handle it. Aaron lurched when Maks shot himself like a spear into his gut. They crashed into the floor. He gripped him by the neck, they struggled and his temperature ran hot.His skin felt overheated and he let go.Aaron felt him loosen up and he jabbed an elbow into his gut and threw him to the ground. Aaron laughed and stomped on him with his knee. He picked him up and pierced his fingers into his eyes. Maks screamed. He spat blood irritably. He put up a flaming hand and it went out. He tried again and it reduced. [ Error too many seeds. Your qi Level is too low. Initiating self-destruct. ] Maks tossed him away. He was caught in between trying to kill him, dodging his attack,s a
Irma Barnsley returned home from Queen's College, after a hectic week of learning about the science of sound. She swore that she could still hear the sound of her organs pulsing from staying in the quiet room for so long. She wore two peacock feather earrings and a black headband over her hair. She wore a grey dress, black pants, and tall boots strapped by several bands. She visited the park and heard all these rumors about her being friends with a creep. Irma felt insecure. She looked around the large open field with people tossing a pigskin around. She would have to find public transport.Artemis lounged at a bench figuring out a mimosa plant, she recoiled when Irma took her by the shoulders by surprise. They squealed and hugged each other. "When'd you get back?" She said.Artemis bit her lip. Irma shook her head. "That was an awkward question on my part." It was too late to take any of that back. Artemis didn't tell Irma about Aaron. Or her ordeal at the bunker. She waved it off
