“Again!” Greg screamed. “Arrrgggg!” I screamed as I swung my training sword at his chest. Greg blocked my training sword with his. As my sword bounced back from the recoil, Greg swung his sword at my ankles. I knew what was coming and quickly jumped in the air to avoid his sword. As soon as I leaped into the air, …
Winter’s Sorrow 2
“She’s up!” Andrea’s voice traveled all the way over to where Greg and I were training. “You hear that!” Greg shouted as he helped me up from the ground. “Yeah that’s great..” I am really happy to finally be able to talk to Juliette. But, I’m even more elated about the fact that I can put a pause on getting …
Winter’s Sorrow
“What is…” My voice trailed off as I took in the dreary atmosphere. “Adela?!” Andrea screamed as she broke out of Greg’s grasp. Andrea rushed over to me before placing me into a tight bear hug and raining kisses down on me. “Are you okay?! What happened?!” “I-I’m okay!” I screamed, while trying to free myself of Andrea’s grasp. Her …
A New World 17
“Uhhh…” My head was pounding, and I felt like I was on the verge of throwing up at any moment. I opened my eyes to find and a bright light nearly blinded. I shielded my eyes and blinked a few times to get the light out of my eyes. I finally adjusted to the light, and looked around to find …
A New World 16
The sounds of twigs breaking underneath my feet, and the rustling of leaves as I passed by them echoed throughout the forest. I stopped running, hunching over and catching my breath. Despite the somewhat chilly weather, my body was on fire and I was sweating through my clothes. “Come on.” Juliette’s voice entered my ears. “We can just walk.” “No.. …
A New World 15
I sighed loudly, flexing my fingers in the air. “So.. I’m not the only one.” Is there a chance that Bellum had a similar symbol to the swastika? Yes. Likely? No. Whoever came to this world before me was undoubtedly evil. The things they did.. and since it was before the dark age, who knows how much more damage they …
A New World 14
I woke up in the morning, the light striking my eyes. I yawned loudly as I stretched, getting ready for what the day had in store for me. I got dressed, and waltzed outside. “Woooh!” I yelled like The Nature Boy as the fresh air brushed against my skin. I rubbed my chest and my arms, smiling as I felt …
A New World 13
“Ha!” I swung my practice sword with all of my might. My arms hurt, my lungs burn, but…it feels kind of good? The more you do something, the easier it becomes. “Pfft!” I sound just like Marcus! That was damn near his motto! “Hopefully they’re doing okay..” I quickly dismissed the thought and took a swig of my water …
A New World 12
Juliette quickly covered my mouth with her hand, and slowly brought her other hand in front of her mouth to mimic a shushing motion. I don’t why, but that was incredibly f****** cute! Juliette inhaled a deep breath, causing her chest to rise and fall. “Okay??” Yes ma’am! I saluted while I nodded my head furiously! Call me an Alabama …
A New World 11
“Mmm… “ I could hear the cracking of fire and the warmth of heat. I opened my eyes to the sight of a lit fireplace. “Adela!” Juliette’s sweet angelic voice entered my ears, and a smile quickly spread across my lips. “Mffhgh!” As soon as I sat up, Juliette sprinted towards me and placed me into a warm bear hug. …
