Animalistic Chapter 3 Ken's pov. It started out as a normal Monday for Ken Colson. He was walking to school, when he saw a bunch of people screaming and running the opposite way Ken was headed. "What are you running from?" Ken tried to ask the people, but didn't answer and kept on running. Ken walked on cautiously. He stopped in front of a turned over bus with a shattered windshield. What happened here? Ken wondered. He heard a soft whine. He turned towards the sound and slowly walked towards the sound. The sound lead Ken to an empty alley. He walked into the alley a little and then tripped over what looked like an old rug. Ken soon realized that it wasn't a rug, but a dog. The dog was thing that was whining. It was a large brown dog, that looked kind of like a wolf. The dog was badly hurt. It's fur was matter with drying blood. Ken inched cautiously towards the dog. The dog didn't seem to notice that Ken was there. Ken slowly placed his hand on the dog. The dog flinched and tried to stand up, but colasped back on the ground. Ken carefully scooped up the dog and carried it to his school. What are I going to do with this dog? Ken wondered when he got to school. Ken put the dog in a box and put the box in his locker and he hurried to his first class. Ken couldn't concentrate on his classes, he was just thinking about how he was going to keep the dog. In between classes he would stop by his locker and check on the dog. The dog seemed ok, but Ken was worried that the dog won't live very long. When lunch came Ken took the box out of his locker and carried it outside. He tried to feed the dog, but it wouldn't eat. When lunch ended he put the box back in his locker. "What is in the box?" Ken's best friend Tristen. Tristen was tall with black hair and his eyes were a bright green. "A hurt dog I found on my way here this morning." Ken told him as he shut his locker door. "It's hurt? That's dangerous, it could have bit you." Tristen told him, Ken just shrugged. "Can I see the dog?" Tristen asked, before Ken could reply the warning bell went off. "I have to get to class, but I can show you after school." Ken promised and hurried off to his next class. After what seemed like forever, school ended. Ken raced to his locker, Tristen was waiting for him there. Ken pulled out the box and let Tristen look inside. "Man, he doesn't look good." Tristen said shaking his head. "I know. What should I do?" Ken asked. "Shoot it and put it out of it's misery." Tristen replied. "What? I can't do that! He's got to live." Ken said looking down at the dog. "You should take him to my place, I bet my mom can help him." Tristen said. "You think so?" Ken asked, his face brightened up. Tristen nodded. "Come on we should hurry, before it's too late." Tristen said and raced a head. Ken followed him. Ken was a faster runner than Tristen, but Ken was going slow, because he didn't want to bump the dog around. Tristen lived a block away from the school, so it didn't take them long to get to his house. Tristen lived in a nice neighborhood, every house was a bright color. Tristen's house was yellow. Tristen walked through the front door of his house. Ken had never been inside Tristen's house before, the outside was big, but the inside looked bigger. Everything in his house was a bright color. Tristen ran into the next room, Ken followed him. This room was the living room. Everything in this room was a bright orange. Tristen's mom was sitting on one of the orange couches. "Oh Tristen, who is-" Tristen's mom started to talk, but Tristen interrupted her. "No time to talk!" Tristen said and took the box from Ken and showed his mom the dog. "Oh my." His mom gasped at the sight of the badly beaten dog. "Can you help it?" Ken asked Tristen's mom. "No, we have to take it to a vet." Tristen's mom replied and took the box from Tristen. She quickly walked out of the room with the dog, Ken started to follow, but Tristen stopped him. "We should wait here, we would slow her down." Tristen said and sat down on the couch. Ken sat down next to him. Tristen turned on the tv and they did their homework. Ken had a hard time concentrating on his homework, but he got it done. "What do you think happened to the dog?" Tristen asked as he put away his science book. "I don't know. I found him in an alley, not too far from a bus on it's side." Ken told him. "That's weird. I wonder what did that." Tristen said. A little later Tristen's mom came home. "What did they say? Will he be fine?" Ken jumped off the couch and ran over to her. He noticed that she didn't have the box and he started to get worried, "Where is he?" "Don't worry. The vet said he's going to be fine. He is going to stay with the vet overnight. Tomorrow we can go over and check on him." Tristen's mom told him. "We should go after school tomorrow." Tristen suggested. "I'll have to ask my parents, but I'm sure they'll let me go." Ken told them. He looked over at a clock hanging on the wall. It was six o'clock. "I better get home though." "Do you need a ride?" Tristen's mom asked. "No, I'll walk. Thank you." Ken said and walked out of their house and started walking home. While he was walking he was thinking what could have happened to the dog. And what hit that bus. Could it have been the dog? No that wouldn't make any sense. Ken lived in a neighborhood that was the exact opposite of Tristen's neighborhood. Every house looked the same and they all were gray. Ken walked into his house. "Where have you been?" Asked Ken's younger brother Luke. Luke looked like a shorter version of Ken. They both had blond hair and blue eyes. "I was out, why do you care?" Ken asked in a harsh voice. He and Luke didn't get along every well. "I don't, but mom and dad care. Your going to be grounded forever." Luke said, he always enjoyed it when Ken got in trouble. Ken just rolled his eyes and walked to his room. Ken's room was small, it was only big enough to fit a bed and a dressor, but nothing else. Ken flopped on his bed and stared up at the ceiling. He couldn't wait for tomorrow, he just hoped the dog would make it to tomorrow. He started to wonder if he could get his parents to let him keep the dog. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Ken just ignored it. The door opened and someone walked into the room. "Where have you been?" The person asked. Ken recognized the voice, it was his father. He was glad that it wasn't Luke. "I was at Tristen's house, sorry I forgot to tell you." Ken said as he sat up. "Sorry or not your grounded for a week." His dad said. When Ken didn't reply, he said, "Your dinner is in the microwave you better hurry up and eat it." Ken's dad walked out of the room.

Animalistic Chapter 2 Beep! Beep! My alarm clock goes off. I open my eyes and sit up. The clock reads 60 A.M. I sigh and get out of my bed. I put on my uniform that my school requires. The uniform is a gray polo shirt, black dress pants and a black blazer, or a gray sweater vest, you get to chose. Everything in this town is so plain. I walk out of my room and into the kitchen. I walk over to the fridge. On the fridge are three different types of cereal. Lucky Marshmallows, Fruit Rings, and Frosted Wheat. I grab the box of Frost Wheat and pour the cereal into a bowl. I eat them pain without milk, I guess I kinda fit in this town. Danica comes into the kitchen and pours herself a bowl of Lucky Marshmallows. She doesn’t fit well in this town. If school didn’t have a uniform, she would be wearing rainbow colored shirts and pants to school. Even with the uniform she always wears rainbow socks. I finish eating and sit still for a moment listening. I can hear the school bus coming. My power not only allow me to turn into a dog, it makes me able to hear and smell better than ordinary humans can. I can also hear better Danica, but she can see better than I can. “The bus is here.” I tell her and stand up. I put my bowl in the sink and walk outside to wait for the bus to stop. Danica joins me a few seconds after I get outside. The bus stops in front of our house and the doors open. The bus is a pale grayish color, some people say it use to be yellow, but it looks like it’s always been gray to me. We get on the bus and sit down next to each other. There are very few kids that are already on the bus, but most of the kids get on the bus after us. Not many kids live on our block, only Oscar, who I never talk to. The inside of the bus is worse than the outside of the bus. The windows are covered with mold. Most of the seats have a weird sticky spot. The flow is covered with gum, trash, and old food. And don’t even get me started on the smell, garbage trucks smell better than this bus. I don’t think they have ever cleaned this bus once since they got it. Whenever I'm on this bus I wish I couldn't smell better than everyone else can. Suddenly something hit the bus. A few kids get knocked out of their seats. Then the bus gets hit again, so forcefully that the bus gets tipped over. All the kids sitting on the right side of the bus fall out of their seats. Everything becomes every quiet. No one dares make a sound. Then something hit the front of the bus causing the windshield to shatter. I turn towards the front of bus to see what hit the bus. I see a huge brown bull trying to get in the bus through the broken windshield. Everyone starts to scream. I look over at Danica to see if she is ok. She looks ok, a few scratches on her face, but she seems able to move. “We have to get out of here.” I whisper to her. “We have to get everyone out of here.” She corrects me. “We don’t have time to save everyone.” I object and look over at the bull, he was almost inside the bus. “Yes we do. You hold off the bull and I’ll get everyone out of the bus.” She says. I nods reluctantly, because there isn't much time to argue with her. I turn into a wolf and run towards the front of the bus. The bull still hasn't made it into the bus, I think he's too big to fit inside it. The bull is starting to get frustrated and hits the side of the bus with it's head. The bus slides a few feet and every inside the bus gets knocked around. I get thrown off my feet and crash into one of the seats. It takes me a few seconds before I get back on my feet. I get the front of the bus and jump through the busted windshield. The large bull stands a foot or two in front of me. I let out a low growl, the hair on my back start to stand up. The bull thrusts it's large horns towards me. I jump out of the way, just barely dodging the attack. I run behind the bull. The bull kicks backwards with it's hind leg and hits my side. I get knocked backwards. The bull turns around and charges towards me. I jump out if the way, but it's horns scram against my back. I turn back to the bull. I run and jump on the bull's back. I dig my teeth into the back of it's neck as it tries to buck me off. The bull soon bucks my off it's back and sends my flying into the side of the bus. "Todd!" A voice calls from behind me. I turn my head and see Danica. I stand up and quickly walk over to her. "Everyone is out of the bus. Now we just need to get out of here." "Ok I can distract the bull for a little longer." I say and turn back to the bull, it was heading out way. I run towards the bull. The bull knocks me across the road. I lay for a few seconds then drag myself to my feet. Before I was fully standing the bull knocks into me again. It takes me even longer to stand up, but the bull hits me again before I can fully stand. I try to stand, but my feet buck from underneath me. I lay waiting for another hit from the bull, but it doesn't come. I hear foot steps coming towards me. I start to hope that they belong to Danica. I open my eyes and see a big guy with brown hair. He looks like he is about eighteen. I've never seen him before, I start to wonder where he came from. He kneels down in front of me. He has a smile on his face, but it was a malicious smile. "Don't worry little doggie. You'll be safe soon." He whispers and pats my head. He grabs my scruff and stands up. I don't know what he's doing and I'm doing to let him do this. I start to wriggle around, but his grip doesn't loosen. I stop wriggling and go limp. I am just wasting the little energy I have left. "Let him go!" A voice yells. There is a cat screech and the guy lets out a yelp and he drops me. I look over at the man and see a large tabby cat attacking him. I blink for a moment then realize that the tabby cat is Danica. I'm trying to stand up when the guy has Danica by the scruff and he runs down an allie. I jump my feet and limp after them. When I retch the allie they are already gone. I lay down and stare at the empty allie.

Anomalistic Chapter 1 The last rays of sun warms my brown fur. It feels good, but it won’t last long. Winter is coming up fast. For me winter doesn’t really affect my #life too much, but for wild dogs it means #life is about to get pretty ruff. In winter food is scarce and it’s hard to find shelter from snow storms. I stand up and stretch the stiffness out of my legs. The sun has disappeared and left the world dark. The only light is coming from the old lamp posts on every corner of the streets. I walk on the sidewalk passing empty stores. Most of the stores are boarded up, others have broken windows. Not many stores survive in this part of town. That’s why I often come here, because no one’s around. I walk a few streets over where a bunch of houses are. All the house look the exact same. All are one storied. All have two windows with a door in between the windows. And all are gray. It’s hard to tell one house from the other, the only way is by the numbers next to the door. The house that I live in has the number 1005. I’ve accidently went into our neighbor’s house instead of my house before. I walk around back and walk through the dog door. That is one difference between some houses, not all of them have dog doors. The dog door leads to the kitchen. My mom is standing in the kitchen as I enter. She looks like she’s cooking something, she hears me come in and looks over at me and frowns. “How many times have I told you not to go out as a dog?” She asks in a frustrated voice. “About a million. I don’t get why not. I’m safer being a dog out there. If I go out as a human someone will shoot me, but who would shoot a random dog walking around?” I tell her as I transform into a human. Ever since I can remember I’ve had the power to turn into a dog and back into a human. I don’t know how I or why I can do this, all I know is that I am able to do it. “Because one of the neighbors might see you and ask me when I got a dog. Then they will be asking why you look so much like the dog and why you and the dog are never in the same place. Or while you’re out someone picks you up and decides to keep you as a pet. Have you ever thought of that?” She replies angrily. I roll my eyes. No one would try to keep me as a pet. “Don’t roll your eyes at me!” She snaps so suddenly it makes me jump. She sighs and then continues in a softer voice, “You know I’m only doing this for your protection. Who knows what people would do to you if they found out what you and your sister can do?” When I don’t reply she says, “Go wash up and tell your sister that dinner is almost done.” “Ok.” I turn and walk out of the kitchen. I walk into the bathroom and start washing my hands. They get pretty dirty after walking around as a dog.After I finish washing my hands I walk into my sister's room. Her room is plain white like the rest of the house. The only thing with color in the room is her and a poster of a kitten holding on to a branch saying "Hang in there". She looks a lot like me. Her eyes are a grayish color, like mine. And her hair is brown like mine, only her hair is a little lighter than mine. She was sitting on her bed reading a book. "Hey, Danica." I call her and interrupt her from reading. "What's up?" She looks up from her book. "Dinner's almost done." I tell her. "Ok, thank you." She replies and I walk out of her room. She has powers like me, except instead of turning into a dog, she turns into a cat. I walk back into the kitchen and sit down at the table. My mom has set the table and is putting the food she made on the plates. She made spaghetti, Danica's favorite food. Danica walks into the kitchen and sits down next to me. After mom finishes putting the spaghetti on our plates she sets them down in front of us and sits down across the circular table. We start to eat the spaghetti. "It's good." I lie, I really hate spaghetti, but it's better than nothing. "Thank you.” It's pretty quiet for a while, until mom asks, "How did your science test go?" "I think I did good. It was really easy." Danica replies, before I can. "I knew almost every question. The test was basically the study guide." "How about you, Todd?" Mom looks over at me. "What about me?" I ask, pretending not to be listening. "Your science test, how did it go?" She repeats the question. Me and Danica are twins, so that means all of our classes are the same. I'm not dumber than her, I'm just lazier than her. "I don't know we haven't gotten the results back yet." I tell her. "I know that, you did the test today. How do you think you did?" She asks. "I can't say, still haven't gotten the results back." I shrug and start playing with a spaghetti noodle. Mom rolls her eyes and goes back to eating.

Pokémon X And Y This was a huge disappointment. I was so excited for the game I pre-ordered it a week after pre-ordering was available. The battles are too easy. My fifth day playing I got my sixth badge. Team Flare is a joke, why is more than half of there pokémon not fire types? Yeah your starter pokémon could have been water and it would be easy to defeat them, but then why make a team with one specific type? And everyone was super excited about that new Eeveelution, but you can't even get an eevee, unless you trade from a different game. Overall this game sucks.

Iron Man 3 This movie was surprisingly good. I expecting it to be really bad, but it wasn't. There is a lot of action and it's funny too. The ending is a little drug out, but it wasn't too bad. I didn't like what they did to Pepper Pots, I think they should have just taken her out of the picture entirely. I didn't entirely enjoy the ending, but I was expecting way worse, so it wasn't that bad. Over all a pretty good movie.
