“I startled awake, in a pool of my own sweat. I had the same dream again, the one where he took my parents, I can never forget it.” “That is very common in children who have gone through severe trauma at a young age,” replied the therapist. “Ever since that day, I’m just always angry.” “That’s why you are here Devon, you have to talk about your problems, you have to tell me about your feelings. Anyways, that's enough for today,” explained the therapist. I was walking back to the foster house after another useless day of therapy. What do they think, that stupid treatment will make me feel better? Nothing will make me feel better until they catch that criminal. If they don’t find him, he’ll do something else. The next morning while …show more content…
I was off to the tunnels, I headed towards the street. I avoided the baffled citizens looking at a 15-year-old crawling into a sewage tunnel. The rats scattered as I entered, I cringed at the stench of rat droppings and sewage. I followed the passageway until there was a dead end. Suddenly a slimy creature was propelling towards me. The next thing you know I was getting chased by a terrifying serpent. I somehow managed to take out my pocket knife. I jumped up just in time, and I was riding on the snake. I punctured the knife through the snake’s scales so I could have something to hold onto. The snake was advancing so rapidly it could not halt before it smashed into the enclosure. I leapt off the serpent. A sudden fear washed over me, I just stood there, still. A few minutes later when I recovered from that escapade, I tried to find another corridor or passageway. I knew The Lethal Lynx was here, I could feel it. I felt the walls there was nothing behind them. Suddenly, all the light in the tunnel vanished, someone closed the lid of the tunnel. “Help! Help! Someone help, I’m down
So she quietly took a step back and think of a way out but when she did she stepped on a stick and cracked it. The serpent got up and started to yawn. It suddenly stopped and looked at her with fiery red eyes. She panicked an ran through a door that just appeared in the sand, with the serpent hot on her trail.
I remember it being cold. Numbing. Something wet seeping into the backside of my red South Carolina sweatshirt. The faint scent of smoke filling my nostrils, bring a burning sensation to my eyes. I laid under a full crescent moon, my eyes refusing to stay open, my sight dimming.
This was going to be fun but it transformed into a snake scaring my friend to make him from hiking on that day. Big transformations can create fear like the three stories below. In the story “Where is Here” use ordinary and unordinary transformations of the setting,which shows how easily it can change.
Following the sound, I came into an opening in the maze. There sat a bound Lucy, a silvery band wrapped around her mouth. Her eyes were puffy and red, one of them slightly darker than the other. A red substance oozed out of the corner of her head, sticking her curly hair to her face. Just as I was about to claw off the ropes around her hands, a big human stumbled into the field.
There’s a young man laying in bed, who tries to fall asleep however is unable to; knowing that when he finally falls asleep — the soon subcumming nightmares will once again haunt his somber slumber. Tonight, no different than any other, the restless mind of the teenager is unable to bring calmness to his mind, he sits up from his bed. Friskly walking down the stairs, he slips on a white t-shirt, and plugs his iPod headphones in his ears. Iron Maiden’s flash of the blade, starts to play as he walks out the front door and starts to wander down the street, through the small neighborhood. He realizes he has no sense of destination or direction; he just aimlessly traverses the sidewalk is not paying attention to where he’s going, escaping
It had been about a year since he'd left his man-cave, but today he was doing the unimaginable. Although there was only a flight of stairs and a corridor, it marked clearly a fine line between the outside world. As he made his way towards the door, his body shook with nerves, he had walked less
I screamed . I couldn’t stop twisting like the serpent on the caduceus until I felt myself fall to the ground with a thud
Breathing deeply, I retched at the sickening smell of rotten flesh and pus. Looking around, I caught a brief glimpse of the creature that was stalking me. Noticing my stare upon it, the creature melted into the shadows as if it was never there. This wretched labyrinth was starting to get to me.
, I yelled with fear. I was hurtling towards a human. A little boy was sitting under a tree, I can tell he was going to squeeze me to death as I looked at his wicked face. I tried to fly towards the other direction but I wasn't strong enough to withstand the mighty winds. With only three seconds to live I am
The Narrative Format Relevant Background Data There were two groups that I co-facilitated today. The first group is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The aim of ACT is to create a rich, full, and meaningful life while accepting the pain that inevitably goes with life. The name of the group is “ ACT for Chronic Pain”. The second group is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as well, with the aim of ACT is to create a rich, full, and meaningful life while accepting the pain that inevitably goes with life.
As she crept into the cavern, she stepped around the variously shaped icicles protruding out of the ground, and was able to duck under the ones hanging from the ceiling, for it was a small cavern. At what seemed to be the end of the cavern, was the source of the dim light that was seen by from outside. She walked further in, becoming more nervous every step that she took, the light then produced a shadow, and footsteps were audible. This
“He smashed one of the doors with the brick, then stood to see what he may have awoken. Sure enough he heard a noise, a slight tap on the concrete floor. Not a step, but a tap. This startled him so he rushed into the broken door and stopped in front of the metal door that was the internee to the underground morgue. He explored into the door and into the dark.
The plotline that James Dashner has weaved into this book is an exquisite piece of writing with twists and turns. The way that he describes the maze in the first few chapters describes everything, from the looks of the box all the way to
With no weapon I could not escape from its grasp, I was trapped struggling to break free. My bones broke one by one, my white blood dripped on from my
A funny tickling feeling of apprehension went from the area of my lungs down to my lower abdomen. I was stuck in a precarious position, tied to a chair with a rope with my hands hung up from a metal loop above my head. Who on Earth was this person, and why wasn’t he showing himself to me? Frankly speaking, I didn’t want to know what he looked like because I pictured him as every other notorious and boisterous looking criminal. The situation terrified me out of my own skin because I was oblivious to where I was and how I would
