CHAPTER 12 (un-edited)

 I left Renee to her chore, not bothering to say I was heading to the river to help Alice and Bella bring in the water. I could tell she wasn’t interested in speaking with me anyway.

 I closed the front door with care then cut across the front yard, crunching with each step. A breeze surrounded the leaves on the ground and coerced them into colorful circles around my boots while the pleasant air filled my lungs with hints of autumn.

I emerged from the shade and into the slight warmth of the early sun. The piercing dawn nearly blinded me upon first glance. I shut my eyes for only a second then strained to keep them open, trying to consume every ounce of light given to me, thankful to be alive so I could see the colors of another fall.

A single crow flew overhead, cawing, calling out to anyone who would listen. I stepped onto the dusty, dormant road which would lead me to the edge of the woods. I’d find the river just beyond, where she waited.

They waited.

 My stomach tightened with the thought of seeing them together. Did Alice say anything to Bella, and if so, what? I began to jog, knowing I couldn’t stand a slower pace. I passed the corner of the house and glanced back to see if anyone was watching. I stopped. He was at the waste piles, shoveling manure into a large bucket.

 The sight stole away the once-pleasant air, and the tightness in my stomach turned into nausea. My knees felt they would give to the weight of realization as it moved through me one heart beat at a time. What I thought, what I believed, was a lie. Nothing existed in that moment except the pounding in my head and the cranking of adrenaline as I began to shake. I moved toward the house in full sprint, my arms pumping and my legs exerting more force than I could've ever imagined.

The harder I pushed, the more my body developed a painful bond with the cool air. But, it wasn't the air I felt sending chills across my skin. It was fear, and I had never been more scared in my life than when I tore through the front door of that house, ripping off its disguise.

Post of randomness

Took a trip to IKEA at Atlantic Station on Sept. 7th and couldn't help but snap a couple pics of some skyscrapers captured by the low-hanging clouds.

We've had some crazy weather the past four days. It didn't rain that much, but we rarely saw the sun or a hint of blue. I loved it. I wish it was like that more often. The clouds were so cool.

We bought this at IKEA. (new frame, duvet and down comforter). Our mattresses are entirely to big (height-wise) for the frame, so we have no headboard at all. We refused to spend $40 on wood for the slatted base, so we kept our box spring. However, I'm thinking about sending the spousal unit to Home Depot to buy wood, 'cause I'd like to have a headboard.

We also need new curtains, but the gold and green works for the moment.









On Sept. 8th, I traded in my son's 1/4 violin for a full size because he's decided he'd rather participate in Cub Scouts than play an instrument. Just as well. It was hard to teach him the music and motions because he can't sit still for five minutes. So, I'm going to take the lessons instead. I haven't had it for twenty-four hours and I already broke a string. I wish I had some cool story, but I was just trying to tune my D string cause it was a bit off.

This is my youngest, stuffing her face with waffle when we ate at Waffle House for breakfast.






....she's a beast.

I visited Borders.

All their stock was 70 - 90% off.



It was like heaven... only not.

I used to visit Borders on a weekly basis when I was in high school. I'm super sad their going out of business.

=(

The loot. I didn't find a lot, but I saved nearly $70! 

The best find was The Pretty Reckless CD and it was a little over $3.00!

The rest is stuff that looked interesting. I should've gotten moar horror. 

I may go back tomorrow. 

Or I could stay at home and do laundry.
/grumblegrumblegrumble....

And my daughter just fell asleep, so excuse me while I go catch up on some reading.

His grip was tight, stealing the breath from my lungs. Time slowed, and I unwillingly concentrated on every sensation. 

I felt the tip of his nose as it searched my throat; his breath cold and erratic, almost desperate. Then, lips and teeth dragged against my skin. And the world stood still. His breathing halted, his mouth parting further.

Lions Eat Lambs visual

Tweet

I'd recommend watching in at least 720p for great quality.

Last year, YouTube deleted my account, AngryChckProductions.

Every video I ever uploaded was lost, and I didn't have a back-up on my computer because I deleted them, thinking I'd never need them 'cause they were online. So, I'm slowly re-doing some videos.

Lions Eat Lambs is one of the first because it was the easiest to do.

It may be a little ridiculous to have a visual for a fan-fic, but it was fun, and it's nice to get back into a story in a different way. 

I still plan on posting outtakes to this, and possibly a prequel. We'll see how this year plays out.

Kingdom of Rust • New Banners for May 2011

Tweet

I dunno. I felt like putting these up somewhere permanent because I like writing this fic, and I like making banners for it. /shrug

I saw a Call of Duty: Black Ops picture, and couldn't help myself. I had to make a banner that focused solely on Edward. Even though we don't see a face, I think the portrayal of what this fic is about comes through.

Another new banner comes out of Russia, by IrKos! They are using it for the Russian translation of this story, and I can't stop looking at it. I don't know how she did it, but it's amazing!

Kingdom of Rust ○ Teasers

Summary:

Edward Cullen and Alice Brandon rely on each other to stay alive in a post-apocalyptic world. Scavenging for food, scouring for water and pushing back unwanted temptation, Edward fights their battles with steel, fists and guns. But when he meets a beautiful, brown-haired girl at the edge of a lake, covered in blood, he's not ready for what's to come.

Wanting to know that she's alright after she runs away from him, Edward convinces Alice to help him find her, but they are both unaware of what dangers wait for them on the trail they follow because there is no greater monster on Earth than mankind.
