The power station was heavily guarded, three snorpians and nine servants were there at all times. Brock had so far failed to get close enough to it to determine how it worked, but from what he could see he doubted it had been built on Morpheus. The only thing he knew for certain, was that it was the sole source of power for the barrier and the stunners the snorpians carried. He had deduced that the power that it produced was limited, there were no lights or other powered equipment in the entire compound.
what is it that makes us feel the need to escape? Today was a totally different day; for the first time the sky wasn't pitch black covered with smoke everywhere, and there was no noise coming from the fighter jets, or guns, there were people repairing the broken up houses and filling up the trenches that were once considered useless to fix. For the first time in a very long time old Jenking's bar was open, and there was noise of partying and laughter coming from there.

It's any given evening on the Chattahoochee River- rain or shine, blazing heat and humidity, blistering cold, or any condition in between. Pressing out from under the bustling highway bridge is a 55 ft. long, 1.5 ft. wide carbon fiber racing shell. Eight rowers sit facing the stern each holding an 11 ft. long oar to hook through the water in unison. Eight oars, eight sliding seats, eight outriggers, and eight swinging athletes. As the stern emerges from under the bridge, however, nine bodies come into view.
After escaping from Polyphemus’s cave, Odysseus, and his crew were looking for their ship. “Oh, Captain!” exclaimed the worried men that stayed on the ship. “Are you alright sir, where have you been?” “Calm down my loyal men”, said Odysseus calmly. I’ll tell you what happened to me.
The second time Cole made a huge foolish choice was when he was on the island and burned down his shelter and all of this supplies. After Edwin had left Cole alone on the island, Cole decided to try to escape. He thought it would be a good idea to burn down his shelter and supplies to create a distraction for someone if people came looking for him and he wasn’t far enough away yet. However, he didn’t consider the fact that maybe his genius plan would backfire on him and that if his escape didn’t pan out he’d be left with absolutely no supplies and no shelter.
Henry and I, walked swiftly to the middle of the camp. I read his mind and could hear that he didn’t want to be late, just in case they punished boys for being late. Henry and I, stood side by side and waited for other boys to show up. Within five minutes, the entire field was completely full. About one hundred men equipped with electronic guns and dressed in black equipment marched around rows of boys.
Upon the swallowing waves, over the boat came, descending madly as it crashed upon bricks of water. Sea foam pelted at the sailors like bullets, fire billowed from the mast as those scrambled upon their last dredges of life to protect themselves. The last of the mast came crashing into the water. Far beyond, waves lapped at the edges of sandy beach. Fog rolled swiftly over the rustling palm trees, weaving low upon the ground as the passings of a storm began to reach the island.
Yolanda sprinted through the forest, the earth pounding beneath her feet. The rattling motion of the eucalyptus trees towering above her matched the green in her eyes - moving rapidly but firmly fixated on what lay in front of her. She was extremely fast, yet consistent and predictable, like the uniform spinning of a turntable. The forest was vast and carried on for as far as the eye could see in every direction. This was not the first time she had ran like this.
The mass media and many other people have attempted to define the problems of inner city ghettos in terms of American racism and brutal police tactics; however, according to Sociologist Victor Rios in his book Punished Policing the Lives of Black and Latino Boys, the inner city ghettos exist in many of American’s largest cities and are a vicious web of concentrated poverty, disconnected youth, and a culture of gang violence. Adding to these incorrigible conditions, are the punitive social controls used by the police, politicians, school officials, mass media, businesses, and families that prioritize racial profiling and violent control.

“The girl was running. Running for her life, in the hope of finding a safe haven for her and her family. She never looks back, the only indication her father was still behind her was his ragged breathing above her head, forming puffs of air in this cold morning. She suddenly stumbles on a root, but her mother secures her fall with a small wisp of air. They lock hands, all three of them, and continue pushing themselves, desperately trying to find the others they lost on the way.
