         <description><![CDATA[<div> It was a nice and relaxed Friday. In the morning, Katherine and Karla were getting ready for school through face time, gossiping about girls that gossip about them. Mostly they were talking about places to go after school. Karla came up with an idea, which was going to a place that everybody enjoyed to be in and shop at especially on a specific Friday. Karla said “lets go to the mall, it’s BLACK FRIDAY!!!”. Katherine looked hesitant about that idea because when it’s black Friday, a lot of people come in and are hungry for sales. Karla was looking at Katherine's face virtually. Her face was a little red looking like she put on some blush on her cheeks, her eyebrows were looking sad, her eyes were kind of wide. She told her “everything is going to be fine”. Katherine said “Ok fine, pick me up” but she was just saying that to please her. Katherine is seventeen but since Karla is eighteen, she has a car. She likes to drive around all day especially at night. Her car is all black with some parts of the car being silver just how she likes it. Katherine and Karla’s house is only about five minutes away. They go to school and go into their classes. They have different classes and not one class that they have together so they went their separate ways. After 8 hours of them being in school, they walked together to the car. When they get to the car Karla said “Let’s go home so we can get ready to go to the mall.” Katherine said “Okay good idea i guess.” Karla drives back to her house. Karla and Katherine have the same style and are comfortable around each other so Katherine also went to her house. </div><div>     After two hours of picking clothes, looking for shoes, doing hair, putting some jewelry on they were finally ready. They get to the car and go to the mall. While Karla was driving it was silent, no music, no talking. Katherine's face was looking down and concerned. Karla looks at her face and asks “Are you okay, is there something in your mind?”. Katherine was kind of annoyed already and she said “No!” rudely, but she wasn’t trying to be mean, it just came out of her. Karla looks at her strangely and says “What's with the attitude? All i did was just ask a question no need to respond that way” rudely back but she also wasn’t trying to be mean. Katherine said “Sorry” just the one word was all she needed. Karla replied “it’s ok”. They both calmed down even though it wasn’t even a big deal. After driving for 15 minutes they finally arrived at the mall. Karla was trying to have fun and set up the mood for black friday by hyping Katherine up. Katherine being a people pleaser she said “YAY let's go shopping”. But she was a whole different person on the inside. </div><div>    As they were walking towards the mall they could smell the newness of clothes, shoes, perfumes, jewelry from a few people walking past them. Karla was just happy and couldn’t wait to get inside already but on the other hand there is Katherine looking worried, down, afraid. Karla noticed her face and kept looking at her saying “Don’t worry i’m here”. Katherine believed her but when they got inside the mall, there were a lot of people going in and out of stores. They could barely see the shiny tiles from all the foot traffic. Katherine turned and ran away as quickly as she could for the exit. She was outside and Karla followed her. Katherine was crying on a bench to the left of the mall and Karla sought her out and ran over to help her but she knew something more was going on. She cried a lot that you were able to see the droplets going down to the ground and making little wet circles. She started to wipe her tears away. Karla sat next to her confused. Katherine blurred out and confessed “I have claustrophobia” to Karla. Karla  put her hands in her head and at the same time stammered “Omg i am so sorry… I feel so dumb for not knowing”. Katherine replied saying “No it’s ok you didn’t know and i didn’t tell you. Now that she gave Karla the news, Karla doesn't know what to do or how to help Katherine with her anxiety disorder. Karla is trying her best to calm herself down too. Katherine wasn’t moving from the bench and she was still looking at the ground. She was trying to avoid everything. Karla was sitting next to her still concerned but she was also trying to give her space. There were people still coming out of the mall but it was only a few. The people started to look at them, especially Katherine with her red face looking down to the cement floor. The people would whisper to other people while looking at her. Katherine said “Can we go to your car?” to Karla. Karla said “yes of course” calmly.</div><div>    They were walking to the car without saying anything to each other or even looking at eachother even though they apologized to each other. They get inside the car. They were looking at their own side of the windows. It was quiet for about a minute. After a minute, Karla said “Are you okay?” to Katherine. Katherine responded with “ Yes I am okay but I need to go home.... I wish we never went to the mall but whatever”. Karla replied with “I'm sorry, i just wish you had told me about your anxiety disorder, but it’s okay.” She continued “maybe we could think of other places that would have less people? or just make up activities to do either at your house or mines?” Katherine said “okay I like that idea and I didn’t want to tell you about my anxiety disorder because I thought you would think differently of me or wouldn’t believe me that I had claustrophobia….anyways I take therapy that is called Exposure therapy. It gradually puts me into the situations that would frighten me but would help me to get over my fear little by little.”  Karla said “I'm so happy for you and I hope that your anxiety disorder gets improved.” But also Kathrine said “You might get a little mad at me but I have been keeping this from you for 6 months.” Karla was even more blown away “Are you serious? That's like half of the year you should have also told me that”. Katherine said “I'm sorry, I was too busy dealing with myself and you were trying to help even though you didn’t know what to do but at least you were trying”.   Karla said “It’s okay you just keep worrying me more and more and you know i don’t like to worry but once again i'm happy that you are taking therapy but lets light up the MOOD you know girl!!! Katherine gave the same energy saying “YES GIRL!!!”. Karla was ready to put some music on her Iphone connecting to the radio. She already has a playlist of songs that Katherine and her like or grew up with. and they both started vibing with each other and with the song playlist. They were both feeling much better. Karla drove away. </div><div><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>As Jack walked down the  dark and cold hallway, the old wooden boards on the floor creaked with each step. He noticed a slightly open door with a great piece of the door gone. Jack says”  its like something had ripped the knob out from the door and they tried to tear it down” . Jack  then stepped slowly with caution  toward the old rundown door .  He entered a room filled with stacks of books and then he picked up a book and opened it to see some peculiar writing he had never seen. He began to pull books from the shelf in order to find some means of escape  and found some sort of secret door that  led out of  the room and into an even bigger room with big machines  that looked futuristic. Jack  stepped into the room and felt something touch his arm. He  immediately looked to my right and there it was a  creature with the bottom half of its body a horse and the top a human . In fear he stood there gazing at such a creature never seen before. He thought where did it come from? He ran for the door leading to the room filled with books but was too late the creature grabbed him and tied his hands  together . </div><div>With no other choice Jack had to cooperate but as Jack was dealing with his situation, Henry was searching through each room in the second floor of the house.  Henry slowly opened each door thinking he would find Jack but what he found were rooms filled with nothing but dusty old furniture . Henry called out “ Jack, where are you? Can you hear me? and with no reply back Henry resumed his search . Meanwhile Jack was trying to comprehend what had just happened. The creature left him on the ground and walked out of  what Jack could see was a storage room filled with glass vials . Jack  saw some sort of vent just next to him; he slowly with caution scurried towards  the dusty and rusty vent. Jack scurried further down the vent until Jack came across a certain smell . He smelled smoke coming from the end of the vent . Just when Jack finished getting out of the vent he saw a furnace spilling smoke and fire into the room. Jack covered his mouth and ran towards a door  but before he could open the door he saw  the ceiling above him collapse was too late. He couldn't react in time so he was covered in wood and left unconscious  . The noise of the second floor collapsing got the attention of  Henry. He ran down the hallway until he saw smoke rising from the cracks in the floor.  pieces of the floor began to fall creating a huge hole that led down to the  </div><div>first floor with no other way to escape Henry only choice was to go down and find Jack the first floor had been almost consumed with flames until he heard Jack say “ help someone help” . As Henry headed in the direction of the voice he noticed  that the smoke and fire was getting worse but he had to find Jack , as he ran towards Jack's voice he saw chunks of the ceiling had fallen on Jack . while Henry struggled breath and also  rescue his injured friend  he heard the voices of people the smoke began to make him dizzy as he fell to the ground he saw figures dressed in yellow and red yelling  “ put out the fire”</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[
It was dark and gloomy. Hearing the water boil and the kids playing tag in the dark. The houses on the outside seemed empty but on the inside were joyful.  It was quite like usual but today it was too quiet like if something was to happen. After finishing their homework they watched their favorite series “one-piece”. “ Let’s watch “one-piece before I leave Jenni,” said Jackson. Jenni got up “ Fine. Fine. we can watch a few episodes and you need to get going after” said Jenni. After watching it Jackson went home. “ Well see you tomorrow at school. Good night.” said Jackson. “Good night,” said Jenni as the cold wind outside blew her short ombre blue hair around. And Jackson left. Jenni cleaned up a little and went to sleep.  
Jenni woke up with that gut feeling like something was going to happen but just ignored it and just got ready for school. While arriving at school the Cheerleaders were looking at her. They whispered and laughed. She didn't want to get out of the bus but she saw Jackson so she ran to him. “ Hey Jenni,” said Jackson.  “Hey Jackson,” said Jenni. 
They walked into school together but the girls still looked at each other like they were up to something. But Jenni had an idea it was because she’s dating the Captain of the football team and she’s just a misfit. While walking to class with Jackson they laughed at how the hallways looked like it was full of kids running and laughing,while the teachers told each one to go to class. Jackson left Jenni into her class and left.  After class Jenni went to watch Jackson’s football game. But first, she went to the bathroom. While in the bathroom a group of girls came in the bathroom and went in front of the bathroom stall where Jenni was.  “Ohh noo...somethings up,” thought Jenni. Jenni grabbed her stuff and opened the stall door. She saw the cheerleaders from this morning. 
 And then BOOM. Something exploited. My ears were ringing and then I remembered the cheerleaders. “ARE THEY DEAD?” thought Jenni. Jenni stood up “OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD'' shouted Jenni she was freaked out because what Jenni saw was shocking for her. “l-l-l-uffy and z-z-zoro” said Jenni. She couldn’t believe that Luffy and Zoro from one piece were right in front of her. “WHAT THE HECK!!! IS THIS REAL OR AM I JUST DEAD,” said Jenni. “No, no you're not dead, we're just here cause there’s someone we are looking for here and I guess we found them,” said Zoro while Luffy just smiled. “Who are you looking for?” said Jenni. Luffy turned around “ You of course “ said luffy. Jenni was shocked “Why are you guys looking for me?” said Jenni. “Okay, we’ll explain while we go look for your boyfriend and the others,”said Zoro. “Oh yeahh, our ship is parked at the football field” said Luffy. WHAT WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU PARKED IT THERE!JACKSON WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A GAME. WHAT IF YOU CRUSHED HIM. OMG. OMG”shouted Jenni. Jenni ran out of the bathroom to go look for Jackson. While Zoro and Luffy went running chasing her. “Why are you running? We just got here.” said luffy. “YOU IDIOT. WE MIGHT OF CRUSHED HER 
BOYFRIEND”shouted zoro. 
While they ran to the football field they heard something explode.  “WHAT THE HECK DID YOU DO”shouted someone. “Mmh that voice sounded familiar”thought Jenni. “Wait, that sounded like Jackson,” shouted  Jenni. She turned around and saw Jackson running. Something was chasing him. Then Jenni saw it. Something tall and buff with a scale coat. “IT’S CROCODILE” shouted Luffy. “Ohh yeah we forgot to mention Crocodile is your principle,  he’s been disguised as Mr.Croc”. Said Zoro out of breath. “ MR.CROC! WHAT? But how if he hasn't done anything suspicious and wrong?” said Jenni. Jackson was in the back running. But then there was a “SLAM”. Jackson was slammed to the wall. Crocodile got him. “RUN JENNI. JUST RUN. I’LL BE FINE” shouted to Jenni. Jenni couldn’t just leave me. She didn’t want anything to happen to him. “NO! I WON’T LEAVE. I CAN HELP YOU.” shouted Jenni back. Jackson moaned in pain. When Jenni tried to run Luffy stopped her. “NO. Crocodile is way too strong for you. He wants you to go help him so he can get you too” said Luffy. “But-I can’t  just leave him there. I can’t just stand here and look at him while he’s in pain.”said jenni sobbing. “It’s fine me and Luffy got this,” said zoro. 
Luffy and Zoro Looked at each other and it was like they knew each other's thoughts on what to do. Zoro grabbed his sword while Luffy grinned while staring Crocodile down. “ C'MON LET'S END THIS NOW.” shouted Luffy. Luffy ran and stretched out his arm since he is a rubber man.” GUM-GUM PISTOL” shouted Luffy. THUD! Crocodile fell to the floor. Jenni knew she had to do something. She remembered in one of the episodes that a crocodile can’t win if he touches water.  But first she went to go help Jackson. She ran so Crocodile wouldn't see her. “Jackson. Jackson, how hurt are you?” whispered Jenni. “ I can barely move. He slammed me way too hard” whimpered Jackson. Jenni didn’t know what to do. She saw that he was bleeding. “Oh my god Jackson you're bleeding.” said jenni. She took off his shirt since that's where it seemed he was bleeding. “Im fine Jenni. Don’t worry it’s just a little cut.” Jackson softly said. Well it wasn't such a small cut it was Big and deep. “ARE YOU STUPID THAT ISN’T A SMALL CUT! IT’S BIG AND DEEP!” shouted Jenni in fear. “HAHAHA” laughed Crocodile. “ How cute she wants to help her little boyfriend. Well if she loves him that much then she can also die with him” said Crocodile. “ JENNI PLEASE IM FINE BUT MR.CROC IS GOING TO GET YOU. JUST GO AND LEAVE ME HERE I’LL BE FINE.” shouted Jackson . But it was too late. Crocodile slammed her to the wall with his sand powers. SLAM! Jenni moaned. “AHHHHH” screamed Jenni in pain. “NOOOO!! JENNI!!JENNI” Shouted Jackson. “YOU COWARD! SHE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING TO YOU!” shouted Luffy in anger. “ THAT'S IT! GUM-GUM PUNCH” Shouted luffy. ARGGGHHHH” said Crocodile while he flew and hit the wall. He landed right next to Jenni. Jenni grabbed a textbook. “SLAM.SLAM.SLAM” was the sound of jenni slamming the books on his head. “THAT’S WHAT YOU GET FOR BEING A COWARD AND FOR HURTING MY BOYFRIEND” Shouted jenni while she was in pain. “That's enough, you know he’s dead right?” said Zoro. “He-He is? OH MY GOD DID I KILL HIM?” Cried Jenni. But right after she said that she fainted. Jackson was still moaning in pain. Luffy helped Jackson get up to Jenni. 
Later that day jenni woke up at the hospital. She saw Jackson next to her. “Jackson. Jackson are you okay?” asked Jenni. “ Yeah i’m fine. Luffy and Zoro are waiting for you.” said jackson. “They are? Haha that's great to hear. Did they get Mr.Croc?” asked Jenni. “ Yeah they did but i’ll tell the others to come because they’re about to go” said jackson. “Okay” said jenni smiling. “ JENNI you're okay just like I knew you would be” said Luffy with a big smile on his face. They all talked and talked till it was time for them to leave. “ Well we really have to get going guys we would stay but the others are waiting for us.” said Zoro. They all hugged and said their goodbyes. “Oh wait, Jenni, remember your strong and powerful for helping us kill Crocodile. Even if it was with some books you still helped and ended him “ said Luffy smiling as he left the room.

         <title>Getting pulled over.....</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>It is Thursday.  Goat sees cars passing by, with fast noisy turbos rattling, at a high speed of 80 mph. The looks of other cars began to speed up making it look scary to jump on in the highway in those upcoming lanes, and a few cars were scattered around.  Then AD (Anthony Davis, but his friends called him AD)  started to tell the Goat  “ launch the car at 7 RPMs bro”  as the Goat was thinking about it very curiously he said “You want me to launch?” and as soon as the Goat was gonna launch the car an cop car pulled up exactly when the goat let go of the throttle. Since then this cop has been all over my back bumper and then we got busted and they  got pulled over by the officer. As soon as the officer was walking towards my car my hands were starting to get sweaty and in my head, I was thinking “ should I run or not''. So then I pulled off accelerating the car very fast and AD was panicking and he was demanding me to pull over immediately as I was driving very fast and reckless just to get away from the police so the cop came out of his car and walked towards my window and said “ good afternoon sir, you got any reasons why I’m pulling you over today”. “ Sir, hey Sir can u hear me?  “ No officer as he hesitated,  ”  said Goat. OK well “ you launch the car very fast back at exit 95 and I caught you speeding and it was over the limit”  oh “ my bad officer i didn't mean this to happen” so “ can I have license and registration please” (Goat reaches to glob department to get his registration and takes his license out of his wallet)  Here my registration and my license officer. As AD and Goat were sitting in the car silently waiting for the officer to come back more cops pulled up and I looked at AD's face looking like he was about to cry“ we might be in big trouble.” I was getting a lot of anxiety about him arresting me and eventually the cop came back “ so I’m going to issue a warning today and thanks for not giving me a hard time” “ thank you, officer”. As Goat turned on the car getting ready to pull off he was just waiting for the cars to pass by so he could enter in the upcoming lines and from there AD and Goat drove off. </div><div><br></div>]]></description>
