Cora woke up on the floor. Her head was aching, and the light burned her eyes. Where was she? Who was she? Her name was Cora, that much she knew. She blinked and waited for the dots to subside. Slowly she got up and took in her surroundings. She was in what appeared to be a classroom. Books stacked neatly on shelves, desks and chairs in perfect rows. It was pitch black outside. But for some reason, such an ordinary scene seemed eerie and strange. She tried to allay her concerns. It was just a school, nothing special. She strode out the door and into the hall. It was a long, dark hallway. She searched for a switch but there was none. She kept walking, and listened.

Julie twirled and skipped with great felicity, and audacity. She acted as if nothing were wrong in the slightest. Cora proceeded with a little more caution, placing each step as though she might step on a landmine. Together they stuck their heads in each classroom and office they came across. Sometimes they split up to cover a floor, sometimes they went together. Cora thought was Julie quite odd. She did everything with great bravado, but it wasn’t to impress Cora. Still, it was nice to know she had someone else there. Julie seemed very pertinacious to find someone. Cora was in a classroom, looking around. All of a sudden, she heard a scream. It was bloodcurdling, utterly anomalous and inhuman. It had to be Julie’s. She ran out into the hall. Then, she heard footsteps. Coming toward her, increasing in speed. Cora ran, faster than she ever thought possible. Blood pounded in her ears, and her heart was beating so loud she thought it would explode. Her skin was hot, but a deep, profound chill clutched her heart. The hairs on the back of her neck stood straight up. Fear kept her going. She would abscond, and leave her pursuer confused. Yes, that is what she would do. Everything was happening so fast. Her mind was filled with only dread. There was a cold feeling at the pit of her
But today, the atmosphere in the room was different. It was dark. "You know I always wanted a window like this" Emma smiled "It was dad's idea to get the window in such a position, he knew I loved the night sky" I should've just kept quiet about the window, thing.
She had a lot of friends and was a good student. ¨I’m in the kitchen¨, she yelled to her mother. It was Sunday morning. The day they had always eaten together. It was sort of like their tradition.

Darkness slammed up in front of [Lina] like a wall. She stumbled, caught herself, and stood still. She could see absolutely nothing... Terror swept through her. I must just stand still, she thought.
She’d suffered in the light, so in the dark, her domain, she was the one who inflicted suffering. It was pleasant. She smiled and stretched out like a black alley cat on crumbling brick wall. Lingering in bed, she inhaled the haunting smell of sulphur that lingered after her nightly sojourns.
Clenching her hands into fist, adrenaline ran through her body, walking with a fast pace she was ready to get home. As she started to calm down and lose the feeling of being followed she hears another voice over her shoulder, but much louder. As she turned her head she screamed “who are you and why are you following me!”, looking out to the distance she sees a figure come out of the shadows. “ oh, you can hear me? Thank goodness,” as the figure comes out closer to Mikayla, “ deeply sorry for frightening you, I didn't know you were going to be able to see so young.”.

This theme is most evident through their adventures with or without their friend Dill and the paternal relationship between Atticus and his children.

There was only one long hallway with one door frame. She gulped down her nerves and pushed the door inward. This was the cleanest room she has seen in the house. There were two small beds on opposite sides of the rectangle room. In the middle was a bookcase.
What's more, how would her able body help yet feel "the strange heart beating where it lies"? A shiver in the loins makes you see the dividing line being the moment of ejaculation, then "the broken wall, the burning roof and
His face was covered in grime and sweat. He rose unsteadily. “I knew I could count on you.” He began to walk away as the trembling blackness threatened to crush Annabeth. “HELP ME!”
Never had her ears strained so much to hear every little sound that was made. Her heart could be felt in her throat and anxiety-driven nausea overtook her senses.
