Reporters, flocking around me, all my eyes could see were the staggering number of camera flashes and the reporters repeatedly asking the same question, “Hicham, how did you manage to smash the last world record by nearly 20 seconds?” Still being out of breath from the race my lungs could not manage to gather the air needed to answer the question that required a long explanation. Soon after, one of my coaches grabbed me what seemed like my 10th water, my brain descended from the notorious

you can only swing it from one side to the other. Your whole body is limp and your throat is sore. Breathing is slow and painful. You open your eyes and see your body covered with wires, tubes, and straps. Nausea swirls around your stomach, irritating you to frustration. Your eyes slam shut as the left side of your head begins to palpitate with excruciating pain. Panic fills your body and your breathing accelerates. Loud inhales and exhales seem to fill your lungs with anything but air. You try to call

The. Last. One. Oxygen. That's all I need. Right now. In this moment. My body spazzes upward as blood flows to my head, like warm water soaking my face. The only thing I can think of, the only thing I remember how to do is breathe. I inhale and exhale, finding sanity in the only thing around me that I can control. My mind should be racing, heart pounding, thoughts flowing, but all I feel is stillness. All I feel is an empty space, and a lonely heart. All I know is nothing. Nothing is all I know,

Quiet. That was the only sound that filled the apartment. Kuroo felt stuck, his knees felt weak, but his heart still beat. And why? How could it? He had lost everything. His lover, his life, it was all gone.     A loud thump sounded throughout the apartment as Kuroo fell to his knees, his hands shaking violently as he bit his bottom lip, his hazel eyes staring at nothing but the floor as he shakily brought the letter close to his chest, holding it as if it was the only thing keeping him alive. And

closed. Moving up the beach, towards the barnacle infested sea wall. Acid collected in my muscles as I ran out of breath. Ash and smoke are inhaled into my system as I struggle to catch another breath. My lungs begin to dry, each breath was like breathing in fire, choking me as I wheeze to catch my next one. Echos of screaming and explosions reverberate through the air, bouncing up and down the beach and in my head. Men are mown down like grass, forcing us to cover behind a hill of corpses. I provide

Akasha comes from Indian cosmology in the late 19th century and the term means sky in a lot of modern languages. It can also mean space and things in our material world and the term Akasha also descends from one of the elements which are earth, air, fire, and water.

around the corner. Hassan was standing at the blind end of the alley in a defensive stance towards...Assef. My heart dropped, I turned back and put my back against the material the building was made of. For the longest time, silence, just breathing, my breathing, my heartbeat, everything that made me human was

Please don’t refer to it as “noss.” Just …don’t. Call it “laughing gas,” “spray,” “squeeze,” “juice” or “nitrous." Call it “T-Stoff” or “A-Stoff” if you are feeling historical and ironic; “N2O “ is also acceptable in a written discussion. Nitrous doesn’t warp time and space; it doesn’t blow up in green flame, and it won’t make your diamond-plate floorboards decline. What it does is to make anything it’s pumped into more fast than it should be, and everyone knows how to apply for it, force to be enumerated
