The story of our heroes begins early one Saturday morning. A trio of brave high school students set out on a quest for absolutely nothing. The leader of the troop was Lady Amber of Cuzzart; she was followed closely by Lady Hannah the Brave, Sir Noah the Not-Quite-As-Brave-As-Lady-Hannah, and the aptly named Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Essay. Together they set forth to brave the wretched landscape of a local renaissance festival, but what they didn’t know was that there was so much more in store for them. The trio’s journey began with a long climb up a steep hill. As they neared the top, a castle came into view. They approached the castle, and Amber held up her hand, signaling for the others to stop. “Hello?” she called to the empty castle walls. Suddenly, a head appeared above the castle’s crenellations. “Hello? Who is it?” a guard called back in an false sounding French accent. “It is I, Lady Amber of Cuzzart,” Amber replied, “Good sir knight, my companions and I would like to enter your master’s castle and spend a day at the festivities within.” “Okay,” he answered, “but I will need fifteen dollars from each of you!” “Very well, but if your master would like to join me and my knights on our quest, the rewards would be much greater than a mere fifteen dollars.” “What is your quest?” …show more content…
“We seek the Holy Grail!” “Well, I’ll tell him, but I don’t think he’ll be very interested,” the guard said.
“Why is that?” “Uh, he's already got one, you see.” “What?” Amber said to her companions. “He said they’ve already got one,” said Noah, confused. “Are you sure?” Amber asked the guard. “Oh yes it’s very nice! Now away with you silly American folk! I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed ‘Amber Lady’! Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person.” “Um, is there anyone else we can talk to up there?” Amber questioned. “No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!” he said, and with that the head of the guard disappeared behind the castle
walls.

"To be the best you must be able to handle the worst" (Wilson Kanadi). There are many situations that can test a person or group of people's abilities to survive.

This was the “oh my god” I’m going to snap the towel rack in half. Green skin with rage, hulk style, bearing down contraction. It didn’t last long which was a relief but it was enough for me to hurry to get dressed and make my way down the stairs before the next one hit. I knocked on the door to where my sister was sleeping. “Bee” my water broke. Her name is Aubrey but we call her “bee” for short. I traced my fingers down the walls of the entry way as I made my way to the kitchen. My husband came in the door ready to go. I had to explain the situation Dr. B said was going on at the VA and my husband was in disbelief. (Take note here that’s strike 1). After an hour John, Aubrey and I all loaded up in his F150 pickup truck and made our way to
Odette awoke to the sound of knocking at her door. "Princess?" A soft voice called from the other side of the door. Odette kept silent, closing her eyes. Perhaps if she pretended to be asleep she could get out of going. Last year had been her first year to visit the prince and she wished it would be the last. Neither Odette nor Derek took a liking to each other, but it wasn't up to them. Their wedding had been promised before she was even born.
Kaitlyn was having a rough morning for a Friday. She couldn’t find her favorite shirt with an abstract fox printed on the front. “I could have sworn I put in on the chair last night.” She huffed as she frantically looked under the bed. She stood up to survey her once clean bedroom, now in need of tornado disaster relief aid, and became more agitated. Suddenly, she saw a piece of blue fabric hiding between her mattresses. “How in the world did it get there?” she muttered to her pet fox Willow. Once dressed, Kaitlyn headed out the door to go to class.
The sun had begun to fall over the Hollow when Maeve, finally, entered the throne room. She carried herself with purpose. Each step displaying an undeniable sense of pride. She paused to gather her silver skirts, revealing her bare feet for an instant, before sweeping into a respectful bow before her King.
In life, there are times people need someone to look up to in order to get through in life. Somebody who is kind, talented, and friendly. This special someone makes you think everyday what you could do to deal with a conflict that can come towards you and how to take it in a simple, proper way. Ever wonder what you should do if a very bad accident happens to you caused by another? For example, if a child that you do not know throws up on you what would you do? Throw the child and express your anger or would you be stressed and just clean yourself up? If you admire a person who is good for you then you probably chose the second option. This girl I admire is named Hannah Stuckel.
Sarah Osborn was a dedicated young girl who had devoted herself as a waitress at a cheap American diner in the Queens for 2 years. When Sarah was young, her father owned a family restaurant in their hometown, Louisville, so she romanticized of being a chef. She cooked for herself every night after she got off from work. She learned dozens of different cuisines from the gourmet magazines and chef TV shows. Yet her job was still not easy because what she had to manage was not the flavor of the dishes, but the attitudes of moody customers. She had been asked by a young boy to sink a cheap plastic ring in a cup of mixed cocktail for a little girl, and another older man chose to embed his ruby rings into a velvet cake for his propose. There was
“Guildmaster,” he turned to Ralan. “I recommend that you establish yourself in the Thieves Tower. You need to get to know the Captains and all of the complexities of your new position.”
"Always be on guard young man, the monsters care not to wait for you to wake up and get dressed." He let out a deep throaty laugh and stepped back in his stance.
It was 4:30 a.m. and Rebecca’s eyes opened and suddenly she discovered that she was wide-awake. Before she even realized it, her feet hit the floor and she began preparing for the day ahead. Rebecca’s mind was racing with excitement, well ahead of the task of feeding her furry companion Maximillian, whom she had picked up at the local animal shelter two years back. She could not recall what life was like before Max came into her life. Rebecca rarely shortened his name because, although Max rose from humble beginnings, it would not have been evident to anyone that had ever observed his dietary requirements, the plush four-legged amenities he enjoyed, or the way he took pleasure in relaxing within the cozy, yet well-appointed apartment he
“Those emotions will guide us home yet, Sir Galahad. We must have faith,” Mithian declared from the top of the stone stairs leading to their number. She carried her bow in her right hand. Her left clasped Merlin’s right. Along with them, Lancelot and Ywain proceeded reverently. Behind their numbers, Malodius escorted Elaine who was carried on a bier borne by four courtiers. She turned to Lancelot. “Say your good byes, Lancelot, ere we depart.”
“No. I’m not interested in bounty hunting. Besides, I promised to help them save their father.”
