Cellar door

Escape swings into Joe’s driveway, and Jackie is leaning on the horn before the car can come to a full stop. Joe grabs his coat from this couch and walks out of his front door with all of the enthusiasm of a man going to stand before a firing squad. Joe and Jackie have been friends their whole lives. They grew up as next-door neighbors and do everything together.…

Jimin stood at the front door of the mysterious old man that lived next door and prayed he wouldn't be home. He clutched at the sheet of paper in his hand and held his trembling finger a few inches from the doorbell. "You can do this," he whispered to himself, "It's just for a month." Just as he was about to press the small button, the door opened and a man with grey hair gave Jimin a questioning look. "You've been standing on my porch for the past ten minutes. Did you need…

in a corner, praying. We don’t sleep well and as light begins to break through the cracks in the train car, the train slows and stops. We hear doors opening and officers yelling, first far off and then closer to us. The door of the car in front of us slams loudly open. Officers shout and we hear people shuffle off of the train. No one says a word. As our door opens, bright light breaks into the train car. We are blinded by it As my eyes adjust, I can’t help but be terrified. There are officers…

squares and covered in old gum and the occasional chalk doodle. You go up and stand on the single black concrete step and look up at the black marble and the silver 126. You walk in the clear glass door and walk onto the faded tile floor that goes from the bottom of the few lonely stairs through the next door and to the elevator. You feel the cold from the faded brass handrail and walk up the stairs to the buzzer with a list of all the apartments. You press the black button worn out from years…

Ronan stood behind me, his hands on my shoulders, leaning down to whisper in my ear. "Imagine Vera, you could be the youngest queen in history. Only fourteen, all that power you'll have," his smooth voice paused, "all you have to do, is kill mother, and you'll take her place. You'll be queen, and I, I will be king. It will be glorious, ruling side by side for all eternity." His voice sounded so alluring. Dark thoughts swirled through my head, and dark feelings filled my body. I had already…

toward the Ketch, the docking bay’s large metallic doors were shut firm,, he floated slowly toward the doors, The portside docking bay was hidden in the shadow of the Ketch’s main engine, it is a small bay when considering the docking bay located directly under the bow of the Ketch. Noske examined it looking for a way in. Noske noticed a series of handles which looked like makeshift ladder, he followed them until he located a handle far from the doors he grasped the handle firmly and and twisted…

slowly cleared and I remembered the messages from my phone. Yet another ring awakened me as I realized I had invited company. “Here” the text read. My plans for the night hit me like a sledgehammer to a nail and I sprang from the couch to grab the door. In came Emma followed by Devan and Curtis. We all exchanged a silent glance, for we all knew the routine - and headed upstairs. The rough asphalt shingles stung my bare feet as I slipped out of the window. The others followed quietly with a mock…

My first thought was how unbelievably messy it all was. Nobody told me how much grime was involved in covering up a murder. The blood that seemed to go everywhere was the first problem. At least that could be cleaned up with things found around the house. Covering up the body was the worst part. I had to dig around the garage that my dad hadn’t cleaned since before I was born. It took me an hour to finally find a dusty tarp covered in cobwebs. At least that took up most of my time until dark…
