It was year 3092, and I was reborn as a thing with legs, again. This time, instead of living in Canada, I lived in a country that was discovered years ago, Urden. Everyone in 3092 was either a hybrid or possessed a super ability. I had a superpower it wasn’t too extraordinary. I remembered that about seven hours ago I bid goodbye to my family. They were an eccentric but powerful and impactful bunch. Then, roughly an hour ago, I fell asleep on a boat and resulted in here, Misty Islands. This island is known for being so mysterious and undiscovered. Yet, I unhesitantly stepped into the island regretless. During the lunch break, I was accompanied by a student named Calla when I went to the roof. She was a mighty but unfriendly individual, I never was too fond of her, but I didn't hate her. Abruptly, she invited me to come with her after school for an errand, and so I did. I can vividly reminisce myself leaping onto a boat and dozing off unconsciously. Now, I'm on the island alone with no supplies for survival. Will I die? Am I being overdramatic? This is when unanswered questions flood my head. …show more content…

Speaking of hunger, I'm starving. My eyes darted everywhere, hoping to find fruit bushes similar to those illustrated in animations. It was an eerily quiet place, no sign of animal life aside from me. I got up and began searching for my meal. I managed to find raspberries and blackberries after I slipped from swinging on a vine. I gazed up and saw coconuts, I thought I was a total nincompoop for not noticing such large source of food. However, it was at an unreachable height, so I stopped trying to reach for

  • Personal Narrative: A Trip To Rhode Island

    714 Words  | 2 Pages

    I wake up to the sun shining through the window and the faint laughter from my family downstairs. It's the first day of our annual trip to Rhode Island. I lie in bed for a few moments and think about one thing. Rhode Island. I wouldn’t rather be anywhere else than here. I glance at the clock and it is only eight in the morning, but everybody is already up, enjoying breakfast, and getting ready to head to the beach. It's not supposed to rain until later in the day, so hopefully we can enjoy our day at the beach before it rains. I eventually make my way out of bed and tiptoe across the frigid wood floors and join my family downstairs. Everybody is up except my brother, Thomas.

When his mother became ill and was unable to care for her family, he has this opportunity. Richard goes to live with his Uncle Clark and Aunt Jody.

  • Plane Crash

    When I stepped into the large neatly organized white polished plane, I never though something would go wrong. I woke up and found myself on an extremely hot bright sunny desert island filled with shiny soft bright green palm trees containing rough bright yellow hard felt juicy apples. The simple strong plane I was in earlier shattered into little pieces of broken glass and metal when crashing onto the wet slimy coffee colored sand and burning with red orange colored flames. After my realization to this heart throbbing incident I began to run pressing my eight inch footsteps into the wet squishy slimy light brown sand looking in every direction with my wide open eyes filled with confusion in search of other survivors. After finding four other survivors we began moving our small petite weak legs fifty inches from the painful incident. Reaching our destination which was a tiny space filled with dark shade blocking the extreme heat coming from the bright blue sky, I felt my eyelids slowly moving down my light colored hazel eyes and found myself in a dream. I was awakened the next day from a grumbling noise coming from my empty stomach.

Just a few buildings, our hotel and another, a small bakery, and a convenience market where the only buildings that were not residences. Within the first days of our week stay, I had become friends with Thea’s youngest son, Yanni, who was about my age as well. He was good to have with me because like mentioned, I didn’t know anything about the greek language. One day he and I wanted to go to a beach that was a city over.

About a half mile in Yanni expressed to me how he was sick of walking and didn’t want to anymore. He then began to hitchhike, trying to get anyone to stop and give us a ride. Cars flew by us honking and some people even yelling out their windows. Eventually, Yanni got someone to stop. During this whole turn of events, I did my best to remain calm and try to

  • Personal Narrative- Curiosity and Me

    1314 Words  | 3 Pages

    How many people wonder about holes in the ceiling and cracks on the floor? When did they happen? What caused them? Or what about when you see a cigarette in the toilet and wonder who had the guts to smoke in the girl's bathroom that day and why they chose that brand of cigarette, or why they even smoke at all. And even if people do think about these things, why? For what purpose? I guess I do it out of boredom. But is boredom really an excuse? I mean, really, how bored can a person get? I don't guess it is boredom after all, probably curiosity, which can build to all sorts of lengths, and I believe it most certainly starts there. How else can you explain why I want to know what happened to a certain somebody when a certain somebody else, punches them in the eye? I am almost positive it stems from curiosity and, that is where and how I try to make sense of this story.
