https://padlet.com/aregocki/52lgb935vr14 From L'engle's A Wrinkle in Time: It was a dark and stormy night. In her attic bedroom Margaret Murry, wrapped in an old patchwork quilt, sat on the foot of her bed and watched the trees tossing in the frenzied lashing of the wind. Behind the trees, clouds scudded frantically across the sky. Every few minutes, the moon ripped through them, creating shadows that raced along the ground. Now...it's your turn!

The only thing on my mind was that treasure, and I was more than determined to get it for myself. The curvy trees, the foggy pathway, and the silent, watching animals I somehow could tell were there.
I knew what to look for: The triangle with the green eye.

What? Where am I? I'm scared. I remember baking in the sweltering sun, and a humid July 30th. I heard the heart-jumping music of the ice cream truck, a note every child longs to hear. I dashed to the truck, staring up at that pretty lady, and I asked her, "one choco--". I didn't get a chance to finish my sentence as I was compacted unto a tube, and all was black. I look around and now I see a dim light, and a shadowy figure saunters over, and I see a smile curl over his scarred face, I notice his knife, and my insides twist into a ball, as I realize that this might be my last breath.]]> 2017-08-31 14:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/aregocki/52lgb935vr14/wish/183958640 1029411 https://padlet.com/aregocki/52lgb935vr14/wish/183958644 The night was long.

Before I knew it, my feet were rushing me sown to the big red truck at the end of the street. To my surprise, I saw a small scrawny looking kid laying on his back gasping for air.

Splat. Splat. I woke up and ran to the front of the store/house. I sighed with disappointment, as it was raining like  crazy. That meant I couldn´t train today. Well, I wasn´t supposed to be training anyways, but my brother James took me out for an hour every day to practice in secret. It wasn´t like I was the only fire natural doing that in Cinder.

That night, that Sunday night, has been the most confusing, creepiest, most horrifying night that I have ever experienced in my 13 years living on the streets.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO!" I yelled across the cafeteria floor, feeling every single pair of eyes looking towards me. 
"Hehehehehe.. Never mind.." I had done it again. I had yelled in the middle of my dream again. I could hear the children in the cafeteria whispering about me: The girl who always dozes off in the middle of anything. The girl no one talks to. The weirdest girl in the tenth grade. The girl who talks to absolutely no one. It's not my fault. I can't help it. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Norah.

When i woke up, i was on flower patch in the shape of a circle. I saw a talking flower (who said its name was flowey) it looked suspicious but, it offered to help me by giving health pellets. As I took one, I was immediately knocked back. The flower was evil and alive. I started to run but i was trapped in a corner. The flower was about to shoot its (definitely not helpful) pellets at me when suddenly a fireball was thrown at the flower and a goat lady walked toward me. Yes i said a goat lady. The lady was kinder but i took caution when following her. I was brought to the lady's house where she gave me some soup. I said no thank you while remembering what happened last time someone offered me something. I was in bed while remembering what the lady and i had done on the way to her home. We had done many puzzles and I was told by her that if I wanted to survive, i had to fight. She told me to fight a frog but i instead had spared it. The next thing i knew, i had been out of the wall that surrounded the place and into the cold outsides, the lady had given me a jacket to survive. I had gone to a hotdog stand and bought a hotdog.

All I knew was that he had disappeared just as it had happened.

I would have recognized him from a mile away. While I stared at his tall and broad figure, my mind was racing, telling me, Run!, but I was frozen on the spot.
