Surreptitiously and quietly, the posted sentries at the main entrance leading to the Dweller city of New Hope maintained their duties guarding it, keeping watch over any potential threats that may arise from beyond the entrance at any time. From the balcony that stood directly above the steel gates of the main entrance, the Dweller city guard had managed to place a small barrier of sandbags with an additional sentry gun turret, consisting of twin mounted MG42 machine guns. Even further behind the sandbags and sentry turret emplacement was a table, with two G43 semi-automatic rifles leaning on the table. Seated around the table, there were three Dwellers: two Dwellers who were part of New Hope’s city guard, and the Silent Orphan, the leader …show more content…
“After Hades, the Godmother and my foster parents were all conspiring to bring me back to the surface, to enjoy a new life there. Before I knew it, I was finally able to be adopted by the State Chancellor and his wife. Not only that, they also made sure that I would be able to attend a Catholic high school in a place called Lansdale. It’s in Pennsylvania, and the name of this school was called St. Gertrude the Great, if I am not to be mistaken. Speaking of which, I’m assuming the two of you are wondering about how life in the Greater American Catholic School System is like, am I right?” As he had expected, he noticed the two city guard members nodding their heads in agreement. “I figured,” he muttered in …show more content…
Thanks to the sacrifices made by the posted sentries at the main entrance of the Dweller city, the atrium was fortified enough to constitute as a secondary line of defense. By the time that the oncoming horde arrived, the Adelburgers and remaining RGA members, combined with the city guard, repelled the human wave. Unfortunately, these efforts were in vain, as a second and later third wave forced them to retreat and leave their dead behind, taking with them only their weapons and their wounded from being taken by the Coven conscripts. Taking up tertiary defenses in various parts of New Hope, as well as its prized manufactory, the defenders of the Dweller city were scattered defending various districts from being
I stood atop the wall alongside several of my fellow ex-trainees. Toris Laurinaitis, a mousy young man with light brown hair and green eyes, stared into the far distance where the settlements within Wall Maria once stood. He looked distant as he scanned the horizon. I guessed he must have lived in Wall Maria too. "
“How are we getting them out of the building?” I walked over the her as she placed the gun on it’s tripod and grabbed the bag, looking at what was left in it. “That’s my job.” I grabbed a smoke bomb out of the bag and looked at the building across the street at our official target. I scanned the third floor, looking for an entrance.
What I noticed when I watched the Seahawks two games against the Bengals, and the Panthers were that the opposing teams must have found a weakness in the Seahawks defense through film of their inability to cover good tight ends. Against the Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert had eight receptions 90 yards two touchdowns. Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen had seven catches 131 yards one touchdown which was the game winning touchdown that beat the Seahawks couple weeks ago. What the Bengals, and Panthers seemed to do was throw at strong side safety Kam Chancellor who's not really known to for his coverage skills. These tight ends were able to run good crisp routes that put Chancellor in bad positions to be able to cover them.
The purpose of a dyad paper is for two people to connect to one another to become better listeners and to work on becoming empathetic. For this assignment I chose Nikki as a partner. Both of us agreed that we would stick around in the classroom since it was a comfortable environment for the two of us to speak freely with little distraction. When speaking with Nikki I think I perceived what she said very well.
At my high school there existed an elite group of athletes that was brave, foolish, and above all else a family. This is my distance running community. We suffered for four long years together, and made memories that forged us into a team. We were connected by not only the common struggle and love-hate relationship with our sport, but by a language that was used within our close-knit group, and shared common goals. I joined track when I was a freshman in high school, and spent my year learning to become a sprinter and long jumper.
When I was five years old I was full of excitement and awe of the unknown ginormous world before me. Every little trip to the grocery store or to walk my dogs with my parents was an adventure of unknown boundaries. If five year old me could see me now I know nothing but endearment and proudness would be in her eyes. I have yet to lose my taste for adventure if anything it has grown throughout the years, as I get more and more educated to the vast experiences around me. I now have even been to Japan and Ireland without my parents and both trips confirmed my desire for new worlds.
I came as a counselor to National Youth Leadership Training expecting to teach kids to be the next generation of young leaders. I was dead wrong. Not only did I fail to build and form cohesive leaders, they taught me more than I could have ever taught them. My first teacher was Brendan. In the middle of one of the lectures, I noticed that he wasn’t there.
Part of my childhood was spent in Charlotte, the golden preschool years as I like to call them. Most of that time was spent sailing on Lake Wylie, and general toddler nonsense. I have always looked back fondly on those years, which is probably why Davidson felt so warm and familiar. I lived in a similar town, on a similar lake, and in the same city. Davidson feels like an old home, complete with the gorgeous lake for sailing, and the city where my parents would take me on the weekends, and where my little sister was born.
Good morning there Mary! Sounds like a few changes going on there, I still remember some of the trying and lengthy phone calls. Makes you what to go yucko, but it will make time go by fasting. As for Health Advocate, haven’t heard back from them and looked on line for the job and it was no longer posted. So off to the old job search again.
People change for many things, the change for good or sometimes for bad. Most people change their size, shape, or even a new look. I’ve change in many ways like, I change to be someone better, size, and a little bit of my looks. Last year I use to settled for a good or ok. Now, I need to try to be the best, not the good one.

I have the same friends although one of my friends moved to another city, two of my other friends are at step.
A hint of sunlight hit me as I dared forward into the depths of the forest, far away into the realm of nature. A zephyr bristled across the brisk forest as it whispered a faint greeting. The trees shed their coats as the crimson leaves glided through the sky with elegance. My thoughts were lost as the beauty of nature immersed me into a different world of grandiose. The silence of the forest surprised me with awe as I stopped in my path and gazed at the serene forest.
When I was about three-and-a-half years old, I was an only child, and I wanted a sibling badly. Now, my parents were told they couldn’t have any more children, but at the time I was too young to understand. As I looked around, everyone else I knew my age had a baby brother or sister and I desired one too. At night, I would go to bed crying for a sibling. In an effort to calm me, my mom suggested “Lilly, why don’t we pray for a little brother or sister?”
Prologue People say I don’t think, well sometimes I think, most times I dream. I dream of things of unimaginable beauty, in colors so indescribably vivid, other’s can only imagine what I see. People have heard rumors, rumors that I don’t feel a single emotion. They are tragically wrong, I feel every emotion known to man, I feel them with an intensity that no one else experiences.
I was going to Florida to see my grandparents, they are very nice and love talking to me. They have a golf cart so they let me drive it around the private neighborhood. A couple days past and we are going to Universal Studios and I didn't know that the rides where inside and I hate those rides, they make me sick and I just hate them. So my dad didn't know that I didn't like those rides
