Soaring high, away. The summer breeze is blowing my dark, brown hair behind me. Then all I can see is a huge tree branch. The next thing I know I’m falling. Suddenly, everything stops. Nothing…

Palace
I sat next to a window and there was a beautiful black mass moving towards us. It lit up occasionally and filled me with wonder. What was it like to float in the sky? Did you feel guilt or pride knowing that you could destroy someone’s life with the crack of a white hot whip?

Untitled Story
Some people enjoy quiet, simple lives. Some strive to have an adventurous, or complicated life. Some people are smack dab in the middle, Maddox and his family fit this category. Now, I’m not trying to recite lyrics of a country-rock song that doesn’t exist (Try singing those first few lines in a country-rock style, I dare you), but I am trying to get across that the Bigby’s fit in what Maddox’s parents describe as a “normal family”.

When Tears Leave Scars
I briskly walked down the poorly populated streets of our neighborhood. Genetically modified grass on people's yards slightly blew in the wind as I walked by. My bag weighted me down making me slower than I wanted to be, but it wasn't too much of a bother noting that I was walking as fast as I could. The light breeze ruffled my hair, slightly knocking my perfectly placed ponytail out if its place. Where I was going seemed forever away, but the anxiety seemed to be getting closer with every step.

The Battle For Earth
Long ago, at the beginning of time, there were two races, the Metrics and the Humans. The Metrics were grey and tall - about 7 feet to be exact. They were also strong. They have icy blue eyes and spikes. The Metrics and Humans constantly fought over the planets they found, resulting in dozens of bloody wars. Then they found one, Earth. There was too little for both of them, so they had to fight.

“So you can rest assured that we are safe, and in a high position in the war.” We are safe and in a high position. Does he seriously believe we are going to believe these lies?

A while ago, my teacher gave me an assignment to describe myself using only one word. At the time I think I used the word smart or brave. But now I can definitely decide on one word, screwed. My name is Kyle Simmons and this is my story.

Why?
I woke up and I couldn’t remember a thing. I couldn’t remember where I was or how I got there. I couldn’t remember anyone or anything. I couldn’t even remember my name.

That's the first thing I hear when I wake up. Yesterday, I passed out and now I - JD, out of all the people in the world - have apparently been kidnapped and I haven't even had breakfast. I can't even think. The only thing that is going through my mind is wondering what the heck is going on.

The Runaway
It was the summer of 1967. I had a great time in London. Except for having to live in an all girls orphanage for my entire life, because I'm one of those special people whose parents never wanted them. The lady that ran the place treated us all like scum, like we were nothing more than dust. There were 13 of us in all, another reason she decided to treat us like squished flies. She hated me in particular because I was the only one with freckles, and she saw that as a curse. That's why I'm here. In a luggage train car. Getting as far away from that wretched place as I can.

The Probing
It started five years after the beginning of the Rebuilding. For twelve years prior to the Rebuilding, nuclear and super-weapon warfare raged in Europe and Asia. The leaders making up the United Nations had different ideas of how to make the world peaceful and one large trading community. These disagreements caused the United Nations to be disestablished and broken up. Countries and governments went off on their own, creating whatever they wanted and keeping all of the resources for themselves.
