The revving of a motorcycles engine rang through the large suburban neighborhood. Two figures sat on the motorcycle, both awaiting their destination. The driver, who has the build of a young man, slowed the automobile down, listening to the girl that sat behind him. "Stop right here," her voice muffled from the helmet, she pointed a little in the distance. The man, slowly stopped the motorcycle, pushing the kickstand down. The girl takes the black helmet from her head, revealing her beautiful black tufts of hair. The older boy, follows along, taking the helmet off, and hanging them both by the handles. The girl crouches down, taking the boys hand, pulling him down with her. She tugs at his sleeve, making him follow her behind a white picket fence. She sneakily looks over the top, watching the house in front of them. …show more content…
She and the boy stealthily move through the summer grass, walking to the side of the two story house. They both stare up at the room with the light on, and hear music coming from the room. It was easier to hear, because the window was opening, available for anyone to sneak into. She scoffed at the idiocy of the resident. The girl took the gloves from the tan skinned boy from behind her, slipping them on, and walking closer to the white house. She was stopped by the boy, who grabbed her shoulder, planting a kiss on her cheek. She smiles, gripping the vines that snaked up the house, and slowly but surely made her way to the top. She looked down at the boy and waved. "I'll see you tomorrow," she whispered. He nods, jogging back to his motorcycle, starting it up, and driving away. She waited for him to be out of sight before she continued her journey up to the open window. She peeked through, seeing a dark haired boy hunched over a desk, hand moving vigorously over a piece of paper. She took her chance, and slipped through the window, quietly. Tiptoeing to the boy, she grabbed his shoulder seeing him jump up in
Usually, their home is silent, but when one day the narrator suddenly hears something inside another part of the house, the siblings escape to a smaller section, locked behind a solid oak door. In the intervening days, they become frightened and solemn; on the one hand noting that there is less housecleaning, but regretting that the interlopers have prevented them from retrieving many of their personal belongings. All the while, they can occasionally hear noises from the other
I was sitting with my friend, Pistol on one of the bucking shoots watching the barrel race.

Filban said the home had a yard that was overgrown. “The trees and bushes were overgrown, and the house was dark,” Filban said. “And the windows were covered.” She and her sister slept in the front bedroom of the house. She remembers the bedroom having a large, floor-to-ceiling window. She said you could look out and see the wra...
It was a sunny day with a sweet aroma of blooming tulips. The sunlight glittered on their faces as the breeze rattled the chestnut tree above. There was an occasional giggle as they talked, but there was also a hint of discomfort and awkwardness between them as they peeked at each other’s face and recoiled when the other looked up. When the bell rang twice, I saw them say goodbye and walk away from each other. In the darkness of the crowd, a glimmer flashed into my eyes from Hannah’s cheeks.
In society today, it is not uncommon to be surrounded by gangs in our communities. I have recently learned that in my area, we have a local gang known as the Peckerwoods. The Peckerwoods are an Outlaw Motorcycle Club notorious for their hatred towards minorities and earning their income from a variety of illegal practices. In the beginning, when assigned to write about a local gang, I had no idea there were any gangs in my neighborhood so I found this to be intriguing. For this assignment, I was actually able to meet a member of the motorcycle club that allowed me to ask a few questions, and went by the alias “Eddy”. I tried to limit my questions because I did not want to cross any lines. I decided to conduct this interview because he seemed approachable and looked as though he had been involved with the club for a number of years so I decided to take a shot and ask him. He turned out to be a very friendly gentleman, which in my perspective is what these members aim for when creating an image for the public. Below is a summary of my interview conducted with the member:
Once one got nearer, the archway opened up until one could see the whole front of the house in a somehow eerie way. Around the windows grew ivy and creepers, twisting their way up to the roof in a claw like fashion. The windows themselves were sparkling clean, but the curtains were drawn in most of them, even though it was almost noon. The doors were of solid pieces of dark oak and the two windows above it seemed to give the whole house a rather formidable look.
Pyramus was the cute boy next door, and Thisbe the prettiest girl in the entire neighborhood. They lived right next door to each other. Their parents were in a dispute over rent money; Thisbe’s father was the manager of the apartments and Pyramus’s parents had been late on their payments for a few months now. The kids were not allowed to talk or to see each other. One thing, however, they could not forbid- their young and carefree love that pound in each others hearts. They conversed by signs and glances, and the fire burned more intensely for being covered up.
The boy reached for his blanket and covered half of his face in fear. The footsteps continued, getting louder every step. “It’s just mom and dad” he told himself. “No need to worry.” Footsteps were heard getting closer and closer to his room door. LOUD but slow, fear was uprising into the young boy’s heart. Suddenly they stopped and started going away.
Brock awoke to the sound of a trumpet. He was ready to get training. Brock put on his long johns, pants, shirt, coat, and hat. Then he slowly walked out of his tent. When he walked out he was greeted by Major General Wayne. He said, “Follow me i'll show you where you will be training.” Brock followed him for a about a mile until they walked into a large field with hundreds of saddled horses, and about 80 other men. Major General Wayne said,
There was a light through the upstairs’ window of the house. I could see a mother sitting with her baby son. Although all I could hear were the many crickets singing softly in the night, I knew that the loving mother was telling a bedtime story to her sweet and sleepy child.
Located in the popular Yosemite National Park, Yosemite Falls is the tallest waterfall in California. Every year, mother nature’s breathtaking beauty attracts millions of people from around the world. People hike for three long and fatiguing hours in anticipation of witnessing forceful water rushing down the steep mountain from 2,425 feet above. Last summer, my family and I backpacked through the Yosemite Falls Trail and I came to learn what a truly exhausting experience it is.
She hopes that the boy is able to keep his innocence with the curtain separating them, giving a sort of daring
The girl runs to the door closest to where Tohru was sitting, and finds herself in a kitchen. There was another door in the kitchen, so she ran to that one too, and found the laundry room. There, in the laundry room, was another door, still open from when Tohru left, that led outside. The girl cursed under her breath and was about to go out to find Tohru when the two boys appeared in the room with her. “Goddammit! You two have to stay in here. It’s bad enough I have to find and protect Tohru, I’m not going to babysit the two of you too! That would just be a huge disaster.
I arrive at the car park, late as I usually am. My friends are there
