SHE KISSED A GIRL ...True Story
Sixty Seconds
I have visions of a place unseen by most said Franklin. Franklin made names in his head about family members that suited their character. Those names he came up with are a combination of cartoon shows and letters. Franklin talked too much said Johnathan. Johnathan and Franklin left English Class to go to the bathroom in a hurry to make it back to class. They loved telling and writing stories. Franklin left the room first and Johnathan followed right behind him. They exchanged insecurities they felt existed, beings with insurmountable fears they thought they could have memories last that could suppress thoughts and do the necessary. Remember the time said junior, why said honorary Johnathan in the eyes of Franklin. The reason plenty listened to them is because they smoked. The difference is questionable. Some would say why when there is a meaning to volumes of disliking ideas. Franklin and Johnathan left junior with a great thought then walked back to class. They wore spandex for some reason that day having everybody lost for words only the ones that existed in their heads. In Class they read a paper together switching and going back and forth reading. All of the sudden Franklin said something Johnathan didn't like and Franklin threw up all over him right after. The class didn't know what to think. A person butted in. That person is the same person who sat next to Franklin. Franklin stormed out of the room jumped off the building and then died. The class including the teacher teared up and brushed off the dirt. They did their dance and told themselves never again. I wold have never thought This one would have the energy to do this. Johnathan looked at the person who said this with questionable resentment. He then released those words no one would ever want to hear. What happened? That person replied with a close sounding repeat of what Johnathan said, only he said it softly like this, 'whaaat happened'. How you feel said someone in the crowd while Johnathan murmurs there same words to someone on the phone. The class goes back to class and watches this movie Isabel recommends the teacher to cast on the big screen pUT forth the perfect mood. The movie ends with what she thought would be the perfect ending only she didn't take into account the commercial that played after the short movie clip. The clip is something like a miracle that kept having to reoccur. The last word said by anonymous is, 'last but not least let's go where death won't be', tonight. Forget this said whoot. A walker that creep(ed) in the conversation. I need more than this.
A Dream Or Something Else
I was lying on a bed. There was a lighting storm outside of the castle. I tried to speak and move my body, but somehow my body was paralyzed. I felt someone was forcing down on my body. My brain was still functioning; I could hear the noise, staring at the light and smelling the rain from the storm. I was dread and helpless. What could I do? Why was I sleeping in this castle in the first place? Perhaps it was just a dream. Then I just have to make myself wake up. Finally, I was free, I screamed as loud as I possibly could. Aunt Candy rushed into my room and she asked me if everything was fine. Wait a minute; she’s not living with me. How could she get into my room? But either way, she’s someone I can be trusted. I hugged her as tight as I can. Aunt Candy spoke calmly to me “do you know who am I?” while she was speaking, she slowly pushes me away; as she pushing me her face was right in front of me. Suddenly her face melted to wax like a person without facial features. I finally woke up on my own bed with a sweaty pillow, then I look at the alarm clock it was 03:15 AM.

The Unknown Girl
It was early in the morning. I was standing in the subway, and waiting for the train to come. In fact, the subway was crowded and noisy. Everybody was walking around to get their train. I was shivering because of being cold. To divert my attention from feeling cold and hunger, I took out headphone from my bag and start listening music. Because it was taking too long to get the train. All of a sudden, I heard someone was calling me. However, I said to myself, “No. I might have heard it wrong. Who will call me here? Nobody knows me. Forget it” I just ignored it. After a while I heard again, someone was screaming “Nousin! Nousin!”. I tried to avoid it like before. Alas! I could not avoid it this time. An old lady who was standing right behind me, touched my shoulder and told me, “I think she is calling you dear”. I turned left and saw a girl wearing a black jacket, holding a black bag, probably a college going girl, looking at me and waving hands to me. At a glance, I could not recognize her. I have no idea how she knew my name. She was coming to me at that time the train came, and I took it.

this Monster Inside Me- Shaneeza Rahim
Dr Harris: How are you feeling dear?
Isabelle: Can't you feel it crawling? Escalating like wild fire?
Dr Harris: Are you okay? Whats escalating?
Isabelle clutched her hair, a frantic expression on her face.
Isabelle: No No No! you don't understand Its igniting, like gasoline. Burning me.
at this point Isabelle's eyes seemed vacant as if she wasn't really there lost in her own mind.
Dr Harris: Talk to me dear! what are you seeing whats burning you?
Isabelle: Its so hot so ferociously strong Everything's on fire! oh God, it feels like my entire world is ablaze? I don't understand I'm confused.
Isabelle's arms were wrapped Defensibly around her body ad if she was trying to shield herself, tears rolled down her cheeks.
Dr Harris: Isabelle its okay, you are not really there you are safe nothing can harm you..
Isabelle: No! cant you feel it crawling? its a never-ending fight: A battle that cannot be won: A Greek tragedy, just waiting to unfold a ticking time bomb. a fire of chaos.
Isabelle: Its this monster inside me trying to escape. Oh god it hurts! please make it stop?
Isabelle almost sounded prophetic as if she was predicting her fate, she sounded factual and monotone as if she was disconnected from all this. It wasn't until she screamed for help that emotions broke through her facade.
Dr Harris; Isabelle, don't worry it's okay! Just relax and it will all be over.
Isabelle suddenly stiffened and turn to face the doctor.
Isabelle: It kicks, it screams, it demands out. This is one battle i have to win.
She started to have an intense fit, her hands reaching up to try and claw at her body.
Isabelle: The fire will never burn out. cant you feel it crawling?
Dr. Harris: that's it! Nurse, she is trying to harm herself we have to hold her down!
She managed to get a few more words out before she blanked out, Dr. Harries approaching with a needle, his face appearing menacing in the light.
Isabelle: The voices, they feel like poison, so hot and searing.
Isabelle: cant you feel it crawling.

Busted
Abu Amin
Back in High School I was once arrested
for smoking marijuana. It was during fall nice weather outside. Me and my
friend, Mike, planned to get high and enjoy the night. Around 9 o'clock we went
and picked up a bag of marijuana from some guy I knew smoked weed. Then we had
the guy buy us papers and roll up for us. After we were done with him we went
to the park to smoke the blunt. The park was empty and quiet, we thought it
would be perfect nobody would come here. We lit up the blunt and passed it to
each other. We weren't aware of any cops coming in the park, but a NYPD cruiser
was patrolling the park. As soon as I saw the car I threw the blunt. The police
car approached us and two police officers came out of the car. They asked us
“What are you guys doing in the park so late the park is closed”. They smelled
the marijuana by now. They flashed their flashlights on our face and searched
us for possession of weed or any weapons. They couldn’t find anything on us.
They started looking around searching for the blunt we were smoking. In the meantime,
two other police vehicle entered the park with red and blue lights.
I felt like I committed some serious crime
and the cops looked at me like I was some criminal. When the officers found the
blunt, my heartbeat went up and I was paranoid from the weed. That was the
worst moment of my life. Seconds after I hear the clicks of the handcuffs. Jack
and I both were in the back seat of the cruiser. The police officers drove us
to the precinct. One police officer searched me and took everything out of my
pocket also took my shoe laces. Before I didn't know they take pre caution to make
sure that people who are arrested don't commit suicide.
The officers put us in cell in precinct.
The cell was dirty and it smelled like piss everywhere. From that incident I
figured out that jail has a smell. When they took us to bookings it was the same
smell. After couple of hours at the precinct cell they took us to bookings.
When we arrived there they checked us again and put me and Jack in a cell with
some other inmates. Inmates who got arrested recently and brought to bookings.
We spent the night in that cell and we couldn't sleep. Not after what we have
been through for last few hours. I was sixteen years old so was Jack so they
called our parents to pick us up. In the morning we were released. I felt
ashamed because I let my parents down. They didn't expect anything like this
from me.
The Hatchet
David Lopez
At last it was time to come out of hiding. Baret opened the hatched lock. Cautiously he stepped out.
At last it was time to come out of hiding. Baret opened the hatched lock. Cautiously he stepped out.
“Don’t come up
until I tell you it’s safe” he said quietly
Everyone bundled
together with freight marked all over their faces as they watched Baret look
around.
“Fire” a faint
voice yelled.
Gunshots
screeched through the air as they headed straight into Baret. He was hit with
multiple shots. Inside the hatchet, his family and others watched the horror of
Barrett's body being penetrated by bullets. Julie’s eyes were covered so that
she wouldn't witness her brother's death, but it was too late for that.
“Keep moving
there has to be more of them hiding” the faint voice yelled as it got closer.
“Let me take
care of it mamma” Roger said.
“Must you say idiotic things” mamma
frantically yelled.
Now it was just
a matter of moments that they’d all be caught and executed for the killers were
not rational. Over their heads the killers appeared.
“Please don’t
kill us” mamma begged. “Queen Ellie is not this monstrous to order this kind of
slaughter on her own people”
Right there and
then they realized they wouldn’t come out of this alive. Shots lighted the
hatchet like it was the 4th of July.
“That’s enough” the voice said.
Under the dead
bodies something was spotted sparkling. Victor stepped into the hatchet. What
could this sparkling thing be?
“Xavier's pocket watch” Victor faintly
whispered.
“You alright sir?” one of his men asked.
Zoned out he
replied “Yes I am fine.”
FIOLATION
As I sat back relaxed on, on my inclined thoughts. Thoughts
of being a boss sort of had me lost. Mom and Dad protecting me the way yours do
yours. Life merging death is the absolute course. I don’t know if time passed
by relaxes my thoughts, maybe if time stopped still all would be lost. Then
again what’s hate to this cause if the cream of the crop will never be
destroyed? Rocheny had just finished reading his poem to his group and now he’s
about to proceed with his memoir which is his writing assignment to be viewed
and read next for constructive criticism and also it is a part of his is
fifteen page writing assignment. He’s thinking right now how he can capture his
readers in a way that text has never captured someone before. He says to
himself, “Will I write about death and trap my reader’s minds so that they feel
hopeless in everything they do. Or will I shed light on the many advantages on
life having this class being one of them. Will I include the essentials, ‘Sex,
Love, and Characteristics?’ Or will I be boring and let the pen take over. I’ll
let the pen take over.” There once was a boy who was given a girl’s name. His
name was Rochelle, and so that boy came to tell that the eyes of the night do
have a smell. Once you’re caught looking, it snatches your hell. It takes your
world’s worst nightmares and places them in the time of their heirs. Let them
breath deep secrets don’t sell tickets. You’ll lose me now if you don’t retell.
He smelled the food from the screen watching commercials of nice cuisines. He
seemed to be bleak and teethed on meat. Life of a bully is the nights humped
beat. So that boy grew and his voice did too and when pronouncing his name he
roared it through, “Rochelle Rochelle Rochelle you fools.” I eat on you because
you taught me too! The boy knew right from wrong they said he did. They being
rich and now he’s sick. Outside the box he knew his kids. He loved being love
just like they did. Now it’s time to collect that debt. Ready on your mark,
let’s get set. Finally the time comes to get wet. The women who are soaked,
their brains are now lit similar to a light bulb missing its switch. Like a
witch the bitch misfits. Excuse my French I’m sucked in. Now that’s intense.
There’s more to life that plays the fence, henceforth go to that place that
reeks of sour dispense. Tales he tells, now check his sense, he owns little
cents. His words he writes will be engraved in tens across the universe until
it sinks. Rocheny stops for a few seconds while realizing there is no need to
prolong his artistry via ink. So Rocheny then uses his pen as a wand and writes
think of this ink being spluttered out from a, from a seahorse who is giving
life to all. He minds his own in time with light beneath his legs as he lets
go. The snaps back a inks out. All to tell a tail about a true story that will
take place tomorrow. He will come in and he will read quietly as others read.
Before they read this part he will have a smirk on his face. Someone will ask
him why are you smiling and he will say I told you so. After that he will say I
wrote this when. Idiots assume because Idiots are Idiots until they aren’t. He
said trust me I’m not an Idiot, yes I once was. Idiot.
I Had No Choice!
I didn't want to do it but I had no choice . I couldn't take it anymore. I was being disrespected, hurt , manipulated, and deceived. I was being hurt more than I could even handle and enough was enough. It was time to take a stand against this man I once fell in love with . It all started one night while Jimmy was in the shower , I heard a noise I didn't know what it was so I ignored it . Than I heard it again , sounded like a thump under the bed. I looked and it was another woman . I screamed and dragged her out by her hair . But before beating her up and calling the police I let her explain . She said to me " Jimmy was her husband as well and she wanted to know who the other one woman was ". It turned Jimmy was living a double life and there was only one way to handle this situation and get even . So I told her that I had a plan to get back at Jimmy . We met up the next day and spoke details but I also had a trick up my sleeve that I didn't let her know about .
Few weeks passed and we set our plan into action . It was 8:39 Friday night . Marisa told Jimmy she had a special dinner planned for them and a special surprise for him that he would love . I hid in the bedroom closet as they had dinner and made their way to the bedroom. Before I popped out the closet Marisa tied Jimmy to the bed so he wouldn't get away. Stupid fool thought she was trying to be freaky but in all reality it was me as his special surprise . I hoped out the closet with a two guns in my hand pointed at the both of them . " You two thought I was stupid and didn't know that you were together HA! , try again I knew all along about your little marriage . Just needed Marisa to give me all the details . Trust I wasn't surprised to see you under our bed that night I knew eventually you'll be coming . So I had this all planned out " I shot two shots at the both of them and killed them both in style . Got some garbage bags to hide their bodies and put them in my truck and drove off to the woods . I dug two big holes and proceeded to drop their bodies but what I didn't expect was that someone had been following me . Along with the cops . I was caught and couldn't do anything about it . And now I'm sitting here in prison serving two counts of second degree murder . Damn!
Nightmare
After Partying for hours in a close by friends house, the girl wanders, into an old house close by. She explores the old house, tired from a long night of loud music and crowd of people, trying to find a place to sleep. As she explores, she finds furniture covered with white sheets. She suspects no one has lived here in years. When she walks upstairs she finds a bedroom. Tired from partying she lays down on the bed. She close her eyes and opens them only to find herself in a different place. She gets up from the floor and finds 10 dolls sitting on the shelf. Each one dressed a certain way and each one had a name tag next to their lifeless feet. As she continues to explore she finds a newspaper article. Headline says
" TEN MISSING FROM COLLEGE DORM"
She read the article that states all 10 names of the girls that went missing. Names on the newspaper were the exact same names given to the dolls. She shook as goosebumps went down her spine. She started to panic.
She say " This is only a dream!This is only a dream!"
Man behind her says " This is not a dream!!!...YOU'RE NUMBER 11!!!!!".

Good student
Kevin Zheng
Back then I was a really bad kid. Being sent to the
office like every other day. Standing up on chairs and yelling out curse words
in class was probably one of the stupidest things I've ever done. Also flipping
off while they’re yelling at me and putting hand sanitizer all over the
classroom was few of the immature things that I did. It got so bad that once I
stepped into class the teacher told me to go straight to the office. The more
she tells me that the worse I get. Once I stepped into the principal's office
it was a straight detention. So it was like detention every other day for me. I
was surprised that I wasn't expelled from school or even getting a suspension.
That was probably why I kept on being rude and childish because I knew I
wouldn't get into too much trouble. Also failing classes didn't really matter
in middle school. I was just trying to get attention and trying to be funny but
now when I think of it, I say to myself, “Why was I so stupid.” Distracting
class every time I was in class and trying to be funny was probably my
motivation to even go to class then. That's just stupid. Now I think that why
would I even do that. I even get embarrassed sometimes even thinking about it
and what I've done. What was the fun of flipping teachers off? What was the fun
of getting sent to the office every day? What was the fun of getting detention
and staying after school for an extra hour and a half? None of it. None of it
was fun. To no surprise I failed the class. The year was coming to an end. I
had to say goodbye to the wonderful teacher that sent me to the office every
day. Going into High school was when I noticed in it was to mature up. The
major reason for this was sports. Unlike middle school in High school when you
fail a class you're kicked off the team. That was the motivation for me was to
stay on the team. Now I noticed that grades matter and it feels better when
someone asks you questions like “what you get on your test?” Now I can say
grades that makes me look good. This feeling was better than trying to be funny
and trying to get attention. From this point on my life has changed. I fell in
love with sports. Throughout the High school years I did track, cross country,
basketball, and a whole bunch of others but those three were the main ones.
Sports has taught me to be respectful, be responsible, and realize what is
important and what is not. The feeling is great, well at least better than
getting sent to the office every other day. All I want to say is thank you
“sports,” without you there wouldn't be the person I am today.
Breaking News

* BREAKING NEWS * This is Gale Weatherman coming to you live from our Times Square location. This just in, there was a explosion at 1 Police Plaza a few minutes ago. Fifteen people have been injured and five people have been confirmed as dead at the scene. Though we do not know what or who may have caused the explosion there was a duffle bag found at the scene. In it was an alarm clock, a piece of rope tied to an action figure and a note that read "That was only one, can you find the rest before time runs out ? - Xoxo" The mayor has commented and said "At this point in time we do not know where the other bombs are planted, but I'm going to ask the city of New York to come together in unity until we figure this out. We have enlisted help from the Armed Forces and other specialized forces like the NSA CIA and FBI. We will work effortlessly till we come to an explanation as to why this has happened to out city."
That was the last thing I remembered before I woke up under a pile of debris. The sheetrock pressed up against my chest made it hard for me to breath. That along with a pile of rocks and a cloud of smoke made my asthma act up severely. My ear was ringing, my head was banging and I couldn't see much. Only a few cut power lines sparking over the now destroyed cubicle and papers scattered over the floor. I looked to my left and I saw Janice, our new floor intern. She was fresh out of college and had only been working with us for a couple months, she was only 22 years old. I tried to gather my self to sit up, there was a huge hole in the wall. It was about 20 feet wide, and 15 feet high. I realized I couldn't move my legs, immediately I started to panic. Crying hysterically, i started feeling very light headed. Before I passed out all I heard was this loud thump, when I looked up all I could see was a silhouette of man. Who was it ? Strong and standing tall in a blue suit with a single white star on his chest. Was it him ? I could feel the Sheetrock be lifted of me with ease. That was it, I passed out. Next thing I know I was soaring through the sky like a bird who was drinking jet fuel. I looked up to see his chiseled face, serious as ever. It was him! He looked so intense, like nothing could affect his judgment. He looked down and gave me a smile, just like that I was out like a light.
Bully
Christopher Cartagena
I shoved him into the substitute teacher
and began punching him. I could hear my classmates scream “stop” through my
right ear while I continuously heard a beeping through my left ear. My
frustration grew and I kept punching him. Someone grabbed me by the back of
shirt and pulled me away from him. I turn around and see a large female
security guard. I calmed myself down because I knew I was going to be in
trouble. She told us both to get on the elevator because we are heading down to
the dean. Trying to act tough I had put on a straight face. I looked at him and
out of nowhere he started crying hysterically. Tears began coming down his face
as the security guard comforted him. We got to the dean’s office and I could
tell the dean was disappointed by the expression on her face. Maybe it was too
early in the day for her to be having students in her office. She asked us
“what happened?” Neither of us said anything. “No one is going to say
anything?” Her nose flared and she began to frown. “Fine, write on a piece of
paper telling me what happened” she said. Both of us took out a sheet of loose
leaf paper and a pencil from our own bags. After we finished writing we gave
the dean our paper. She read his paper first out loud “He shut down my computer
and began hitting me” then she read mine out loud “He slapped my left ear with
full force after I turned off his computer”.
