From Darkness Into Light By: William Lewis Core: 1 I made sure my alarm woke me up at 5:00. During this time of day, the streets of Paris were empty, the morning sky was awash with peach, like fire crackling in the atmosphere and the ocean blue, blue as a gleaming sapphire, with clouds, perfectly white clouds as pure as the moon, like dandelions dancing in the sky. But I had to get to work. I made posters again with his address and the right time, but this time with better material. I put them up at around 6:00, and now I realized that I just had to wait. As he left his house for the coffee, I noticed he was crying, he really needed help. I sure hoped this would work. “Ah finally, that took forever,” I exclaimed as he came biking back.

There’s a myth that everyone eventually hears in the town beside the forest. It is a classic, a story passed down from generation to generation. Every Sunday night, the story is spoken to the town’s children, when the fire is as high as a tree . The story goes that deep in the forest, a woman, adorned with hair the color of the sky, dances. She was originally the queen of the kingdom, when arranged marriages were still a thing, and the king was mean and angry. The queen was beautiful, a daughter of a noble from another country.

The Unknown Pieces to my Puzzle I have always felt different from everyone. I am 13 years old. I have a brother Kyle who is 17, and a sister named Annie who is 18. My brother is like every jock that you see in school. He has the slick, thick brown hair that he gels and brushes every morning. His girlfriend is Rachel. She’s also 17 and has the cutest outfits. However, on the other hand, my sister Annie is more of a bookworm. She is 18 years old. Annie has some friends but her passion is reading. This is really random, but something odd happens every day. I walk around and people call out my name. “Alex how are you doing?” a lady at the supermarket once asked. It always boggled my mind how everyone knows my family.

I h...

LIT DEVICE SHORT STORY By: Asher Weiss When I was sitting in my living room on my couch that was furnished and purple with my cat named Meadow we were watching tv and it was the nfl with antonio brown catching the ball while doing a flip in a bright yellow and black jersey. I went crazy because he was on my fantasy team and by accident I hit my cat off her brown perch that was 6 feet of a glazed tile ground.
