An oasis of light in a sea of darkness(Revised)

Living in an underground city to many seems exciting while for others it can be a real pain in the neck due to the fact is your resources are limited. For the people who lived in the underground city of Ember they were told by “The Builders” that their city shall last for 300 years. But only 281 years in many citizens of the city notices some dramatic changes. Such as constant blackouts that happen at such a fast pace. Then there are the food shortages and while some citizens think it’s something minor they shall soon realize that their deathtrap is preparing their coffins. For 2 citizens of the city they both realize something worse is going to happen but many question how to get out of a city that is surrounded by a sea of darkness?

The question is when your living in a society that is crumbling what more can you do? For sure you know not to go to the government due to the fact that the governments corruption will not do you any good. The next problem is that where can you go. Nothing beyond the city limits but complete darkness that can be filled with who knows what may be out there from monstrous creatures that may be who knows how big- to possibly trenches that may go on forever. But one things for certain. When death puts the squeeze on you, you will be lucky if you can find a way out of your situation. Ever since the beginning of time many people from explores to native tribes have always looked to the heavens to find the answer to their situations. but for the people of the underground city of Ember there's nothing more than 360 degrees of darkness and so no choice but to surrender and fall victim to death. All the chaos and Pandemonium of this irony was something that would drive everybody either insane or mad.

The only thing the people who lived in the city of Ember had hope for one thing and that was the river. ember had an underground city that was fast flowing and deep and so the murky depths would provide a great shelter in case the city does go black. Even the workers of the city who job was to keep the city up and running couldn't do anything about their situation and so they knew they were sitting ducks. Another thing that did keep the hopes up of the people was an citywide event called "The Singing". The singing was basically celebrating the birth of the city by having every citizen sing the three great songs of the city. This was technically like a country devoting a day to singing their national anthem. But not even an event like this could boost the morale of the citizens as they struggled for sanity and life.

All hope was lost. Many citizens thought they could never escape the underground city that was their tomb. Death was imminent and there's absolutely no hope at all. And so the final option for the citizens was to just lay down and die unless.........

Crazy Slaughtering

"NRS Soldier: That was a close one. Thought they nearly got me there. It has been nearly 5 days after they've released the zombies. Curse them USSF scientists. We don't know how much we'll be able to last but one things for sure if we do end up dying we'll die for out country."

"I found a room guys". But where's the light switch? I found it turn it on now. Wait what are you all of guys doing here? James, Jennifer, Sandra, Josh thank god are we glad to see you guys once again. What happened? well in the middle of our festival we had guards standing outside because we were afraid of communist forces attacking us. And so one of the guards saw a hoard of people walking towards the school. He approached one of them they he started being attacked by one of them and saw that they were zombies. But where did they come from was a mystery, but one thing was for sure when the guard came in and told us about the situation we decided to take action and saw we told everyone to head home but they we brought everyone down here to continue our safety. So that's where everyone went. You guys are lucky. We spent 5-6 hours or so fighting off the entire hoard of zombies. We even went up to the bell tower to check out the situation but our worst fears came true. We looked out and saw nothing but a sea of the undead. We just have one question for you guys. Why didn't you guys tell us about the weapons cache located behind James locker? "Well originally the people who built this school built it during time of communism and fear of nuclear attack like now. Believe it or not this school was built in 1969 but we thought it would look to old and so we gave it a new futuristic look to it". Well thank god you guys built it. We nearly got swarmed by them. They were coming in by the thousands. Thank goodness James had his "Imperial Destruction Bringer" if it weren't for that weapon we would all be doomed. "Wait let me see that weapon". It was an honor making this weapon, it's a cannon that can shoot cannonballs as hot as the sun and so this helped us deal with the mobs real easily. "Wait is that really an HCOUT"? yes, yes it is if it weren't for this weapon then I would be a goner by now. But luckily for me this weapon has helped me deal with those nasty spider crawling zombies which are a pain to deal with. Are there still any weapons left in the weapons cache? There are about 500 guns left so that means 2 each for everyone so we should be good. "All students grab their ray guns". Our time is running out the question is how will we get out. Josh sealed the entrance to the tunnel to assure non of those pigs shall get in. "There's a ton of these secret tunnels located around here. Let's take each tunnel to see where they will lead.

"NRS soldier: I'm going to need to find help. I cannot fight this alone if I don't find help then I'm going to end up being zombie food. hey there's a school up ahead. Looks like it was built in 1969 perfect this school will make a great refuge for me".

Meanwhile.............

They're all over the place. Shoot! nearly out of ammunition for my ray gun.

"As the 254 students and teachers fought there way through the tunnels they were met with swarm upon swarm of zombies. The tunnels they thought were safe are now being infiltrated by swarm upon swarm of zombies. It was like a raging river above them has now seeped into the tunnels and now the torrent of zombies are not stopping at any costs to get that taste of flesh they've been dying for. And so as the 254 students made their way past tunnel after tunnel they finally made it to a door where through the cracks they could see daylight. They opened the door and was shocked by what they saw. They ended up in a field where there were absolutely no signs of civilization in sight. They were about to lose all hope when they spotted a building in the distance. They slowly approached the building and saw it was a Sanitarium. As the crowd of 254 approached the building they took a look inside and investigated to see if there were any resources that they could store but they found nothing.

The 4 found a tunnel and they nearly fell sick because of the stench. There was a sign above the door that read "The Death Tunnel". to the 4 the sanitarium had a foul stench of nightmares, death and pile upon pile of dead victims that were still left on their operating tables. As James looked down the tunnel they saw a figure coming towards them at first they were loaded in case it was a zombie but they were shocked that it was a sanitarium patient who came here in 2309. "Help ME!". The patient dropped dead to the floor and finally the truth to them was finally revealed.

The Sea

The sea's soft gentle waves crash ashore to form an eerie fog
Mist from water vapors fills the air and forms into an eerie fog
The visibility to passer byers becomes fairly bleak
Throughout the night as the fog subsides lunar forces help to ease the sea into a state of calmness
As dawn breaks the sea cries out telling the moon not to fade away
But a new day starts and the sea finds itself in a very lonely state.
And so as the day progressed the theatrical symphony of the heavens slowly approached the sea
As the heavens cried the thunder crashed in the sky and the sea went from a sobbing type of feeling to anger
In the middle of the torrent of the seas emotion came a ship
The ship was being pounded from all sides by 100ft waves
Finally there was a disturbance on the sea floor and then a violent shake occurred
Then came the final blow a monstrous 200ft wave
Local fisherman on the shoreline watched in horror as the ship came coming towards the shoreline
And finally the final blow was delivered

The March to War

1939's Nazi Germany is known by many to be one of the most evil empires know to mankind. Many Germans who had faith in the empire soon found out that with every great ruler there's a dark vicious side to him. Over a course of 12 years Adolf Hitler Germany's so called greatest ruler was able to occupy much of Europe and nearly took over Russia. Hitler knew that if he wanted to continue his expansion he shall acquire soldiers that are willing to sacrifice everything for their Reich. And he in doing so he sought to deceive the German people with false statements of becoming the best country in the world and becoming the leading superpower in the entire world. But throughout Hitler's reign of 12 years what many saw as a bright young man soon turned into some kind of monster. For one Hitler youth soldier named Alfons Heck he shall soon learn that your only a pawn in war.

In 1933 Adolf Hitler was elected chancellor of Germany and his speeches spoke of a brighter Germany, one that shall be renewed from the ashes of the old Germany. Alfons Heck was just a young boy who lived outside the city of Frankfurt. Energetic, patriotic and easily manipulative Alfons like most Germans had faith in his Führer. But it wasn't until World War II progressing that many would realize that trusting their Führer was a mistake they shouldn't have done before or in the first place. But by 1945 many realized it was too late to save themselves and finally as the Third Reich was burning down to the ground millions of Germans fell with it. As the Reich finally finished burning the western allies circled over the ashes and picked off whatever targets were left. Post World War II called for major cleanup and many Germans questioned how would they rebuild without a leader. But that was after 1945. For now Alfons knew that he was proud to serve Hitler and bring victory to the Reich. At age 9 he was enlisted by the Hitler youth because he wanted to no matter how much his parents pled with him not to join. As the war progressed he soon realized how desperate the Reich was getting to stay alive and so by age 15 Alfons was made a Bahnfuher the equivalent to a Major General in today's ranks. At the same time while Alfons was dealing with major troubles Helen was a Jewish woman who fled Germany due to the hatred being expelled by the Reich. While in hiding to continue her life in Amsterdam she was captured and sent to Auschwitz one of the most brutal concentration camps known in World War II. While she spent her time there. She watched pile upon pile of corpses of her own kind dying and she knew that she may not make it out of there alive. But fate ran another course and when the western allies reached her she was free.
War is the worst thing ever invented for mankind. For the people who lived in the 1940s war had to be paid in the millions of the death tolls of innocent men and women who were all deceived by a man who had a very severe dark side and many realized you can't always think that everything is true.

school of the dead

Muse - Time Is Running Out .mp3
Found at bee mp3 search engine

NRS Soldier: Entry 236590 Date 3/14/2197 time 7:30 P.M
It is a been a brutal war between us and the USSF.
They're releasing an army of zombies that THEY hope shall get rid of us once and for all, But what they don't understand is what will power we possess and shall use until the final days that we die. If anybody hears this you must escape to one of our allied countries it is not... wait stay back! (Gunfire in the background) THEY'RE SWARMING ME AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH............. (Static)

It was a Friday night and 4 friends were cleaning up their school after celebrating them becoming freshmen. It was 9:00 P.M and everybody had left even the teachers and janitors and so it was only them who was left. There were two girls and two guys. The two Guys were Josh and James. Josh was a 14 year old boy who came from a family that has had a history of serving in the military and so he took everything seriously. He was muscular and was 6'0" tall. James was a 13 year old Asian who's family can trace their ancestral roots all the way back to the Han dynasty in China. For him when it came to competition honor, pride and serving his friends well was the most important things to him and so when it came to failure he never gave up till the end. On the other side were two girls Sandra and Jennifer. Sandra was raised to a rich family and was tall at 5'8". She was blonde and played multiple sports which made her athletic. She had many friends but she was best friends with non other then Jennifer. Jennifer came from a middle class family and was about 5'6" like Sandra she played many sports and was also one of the smartest people in her grade. She had Burnett hair and she had straight A's and always knew that she would have to work for things.

The 4 individuals were just about to leave when they heard a strange noise coming from down the hallway. the 4 went to investigate and they were shocked by what they saw. They saw Zombies breaking through the windows. At first they were panicking thinking they would surely die due to the fact that they had nothing to defend themselves with. But Quick on his feet James remembered a weapon cache that was built into one of the walls that no one noticed and knew about except for the teachers. when James opened it all of them grabbed some ammunition and were locked and loaded and were ready for the onslaught that lay ahead of them. "Any Last words guys said Josh?". James replied "I do this for honor if I die let me take as much of them with me to their graves!". Sandra replied "I will not let some stupid zombie end my life!". Jennifer replied "It was fun spending this entire night with you guys if none of us make it out alive lets at least fight until the end!". Josh made the final response "Been shooting stuff since 2185 so BRING IT ON!". Zombies started coming down the hallways and they opened fired, rotten guts, flesh and zombie body parts were basically raining down upon them but they knew it was either fight or die. James especially took it personally for When he was born Zombies killed his parents but he was able to defend himself thanks to a villager giving him a katana. And so because of that fateful day he has always wanted revenge for the undead taking his parents. James was wielding his Katana, a Ray gun and a gun he invented called "The Imperial Destruction bringer" which shot cannon balls that were as hot as the sun. Josh was using the High Collateral Oscillating Utility Tamer or HCOUT. Sandra was using a compound bow with arrows. This shocked everybody considering the fact that Sandra never told her friends that she goes hunting very often. Jennifer was using an M16 with an attached shot gun and a grenade launcher.

And so the battle raged on for hours until finally at 3:00 A.M the last of them have been dealt with. The 4 were tired, restless, hungry and were nearly out of ammunition. Supplies were running short and the 4 battle hardened teenagers knew that more shall come. They decided to climb up the tower inside their 5 story school and were shocked by what they saw. Zombies in hoards of millions have taken over their city and has even taken over most of the NRS. The 4 decided to lose hope thinking that they will never be able to escape but then Josh remembered something. He knew that the school had an underground network of tunnels that were built underneath the school in case of a nuclear attack or invasion. and so grabbing the last of the ammunition in the cache josh shot the main door to the school open letting the zombies in and sealing up the entrance to the tunnels. At first they thought he was committing suicide by using himself as live bait but just as the zombies nearly grabbed him he closed the tunnel door and the 4 navigated until they reached the end of the tunnel. None of them knew what may lie ahead of them but they tried their fate and were shocked by what they saw

Thunder, Lightning, Fear, Excitement

As I exited out of the bowling Alley the air has a sickly humid climate. It was so damp that even the sweat in my body didn't even want to come out. But as I looked up at the sky, the sky was a freighting dark big black hole of unknown things. As me and my family drove home we were entering the eye of the storm. As we first approached we saw nothing but lightning, and tremendous sound of lightnings friend thunder. As we were nearing home we saw a barricade for the train crossing at its blocking position as we near the tracks we saw no such train coming from both sides of the track. At first we thought this some mechanical failure but suddenly a freak lightning bolt flew across the clouds and thunder joined in the theatrical performance as well.

"BOOM, CRASH, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP"

The only sounds I heard as we approached the beep was the NWS in Sullivan issuing warning after warning after warning. The Boom and the crash were the orchestra of the heavens joining along to add the dramatics and the craziness of it all. To me this felt like the day that shall never end. As I got inside my house I was immediately glued to my TV keeping an eye out for any mayhem that may or shall come my way. As the theatrical performance intensified there was a thought in the back of my mind that kept repeating "YOUR GOING TO DIE!", "YOUR GOING TO DIE!". It was just like a freight train coming my way.

But finally after an agonizing 3 hours the storm finally subsided and the orchestra made their last impression on me. It was a beatiful performance and even though it was freighting at times at least I got to see this show for free.
