It was five o'clock on the 12th of July, and the 32 year old succubus glared at the hot sun. Standing at 5'6'' her silky ink colored hair fell to her chin framing her heart shaped face beautifully. Dark cherry colored eyes sat beneath sculpted brows. Her pecan skin pulled over chiseled cheekbones. She sighed soundlessly, while smoothing down her dark leather skirt. She knew humans considered her race nefarious. Evil creatures with a vindictive streak over a mile long. She started to walk briskly down the street to the club that sat proudly on the corner of Egan and Marks. Walking into the club the slim-wasted vixen sauntered to the bar. She grimaced internally at the leers that appeared on the faces of many of the men. She silently thanked Lohan that she had an affinity for rohypnol. Shaking herself internally, she gave the bar tender a seductive smile, ordering a dry whiskey. She started to tune the world out as she sat at the bar, eyes glazed as she thought of home. She didn't wish to dwell in the world of men. She had only arrived in this world a month or so ago. She had been in implacable. Alone in a foreign land, with no friends, no family, surrounded by a cult who wished to use her demonic powers for evil. She tilted her head to the side as someone sat next to her. She gave a sigh of relief as it turned out to be a petite woman.
ReplyDeletethere must be part II....
Deletecherry colored eyes are creepy!! Have you been playing with Monster High Dolls?
There once was a jingoistic bald eagle named Brad. He had an affinity for the American flag, as his nest was made from one. Brad’s favorite past time is to harangue other birds about America and because of this every bird hates him. Brad can’t date other birds, so he is in love with a vixen, who loves this implacable love for America.
ReplyDeleteBrad decided to diatribe his new friend, Harry the shark, about America one day. Little did Brad know, Harry is a sadistic dunce who hates America. Harry began to hate Brad, and began to plan his death.
However, Harry isn’t the most intelligent, so it took about 4 years before Brad actually died. Harry waited for Brad to plummet into the waters for fish, then took every fish Brad caught. Harry did this for a week straight, every time Brad caught a fish, Harry would eat it before Brad could even get a bite. Brad died of starvation three days later. His girlfriend married Harry and had 17 children.
The end
note: diatribe is not a verb.
DeleteAlso, what kind of creature comes out of a a shark and bald eagle? A flying fish? A feathered fin?
With an affinity for dancing and performing its always sucks to find out you have a concussion and that you can't perform for your school. It also sucks knowing that there is a coquette girl on the team waiting to take my spot on the floor. Thankfully my coach isn't the type of person to harangue me for being hurt. Dancing is actually a hard sport, people don't understand that it's very easy to get hurt in this sport... THAT IS A SPORT!! Being a dancer it seems as if injuries are ubiquitous. Off to another subject, have you ever loved something so much that when someone only has slipshod work it kills you inside? Thats how I am with dance I mean I understand that people have different interests for different things but people shouldn't do a sport if they don't love it and aren't willing to give 110%. I guess those are just some of my thoughts.
ReplyDeletewow, a true story and you figured out how to get your new vocab to flow well within the text. Great job!!
DeleteOnce upon a time, there was a nefarious person named Jack, who always seems very sketchy when walking around town. This girl named Kate, was a girlfriend of Jack. She is an coquette to Jack (you can say she uses him, but he does not know/notice). What Jack does, is he walks around with a backpack and goes into stores. That's why when people walk by him, they stereotype him. But yet, Jack is a very sneaky guy who can "steal" things from stores. He's an affinity person. After years past, people would know what he does from what they've heard or where they've seen him. He was no sneaky guy anymore. He has been caught. He would get harangue from the people. He got caught by him that cannot go through impregnable places.
ReplyDeletewho is this one who can't "go through impregnable places"?
DeleteFix the sentence with affinity... Affinity means a preference for something...for example, you could say: Cassie has an affinity for expensive shoes.

ReplyDeleteWell, Dear Ms. Reyes
ReplyDeleteI am sick of these colleges sending me countless e-mails on where I SHOULD go. It’s not like it’s my life or anything. For example, guess which macabre college sent me a letter about them? PEMBROKE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA! UGH... They have the nerve to send me something?? Oh, and that college used a coquettish technique by having some woman write me the letter talking about how proud they would have me for being an outstanding American "Indian". Fie on Miss Lela Clark for brown nosing the letter and being a sycophant at it too. Maybe I'm being too harsh on the director of admissions? Nah, I'm just being in an implacable mood right now; testosterone is a horrible hormone. Count yourself lucky that you don't have it. Or should I be the lucky one that I don't have a lot of your hormones in my body? Well this has been a very nice paragraph to type.
funny...a macabre university. Sounds like something Poe would've attended.
