The Legend Of Rizel

A young warrior and king by the name of Rizel Hardus a guardian of the great land of Geist. Lord of a blade and the most feared amongst any beast. Named craved in caves in blood, slashing through the barrier of any great legend. No figure has ever crossed his sword and lived to tell tale the next day except for one person so horrible and fowl. SAMAEL. His name strikes fear in lands, smoke and flames rise every time his feet wake on soil. He is the archangel, death on legs. Days begin to be prolonged waiting for SAMAEL to come again. Rizel sent out troops to find him but none found him. They sailed the oceans and failed to have any progress on his where abouts. Days, months, and years passed the search faded and once again the land seemed quite and Rizel and his grand army rested their heads comfortably.

The kingdom of Geist held a feast to celebrate the peace across the land. Wine, beer and a table full of all the food you can imagine.

" Your majesty It is a great day. We the Geistians are extremely happy the land's peace is finally restored".The man says continuing his way to the mountain of food in front of him as he swallows his beer.

"My lord do you think he will return?" Grim asked very worried.

"I wish I had the answer you were looking for." Rizel Whispers as another local approaches.

" Why so glum you should be celebrating. The intoxicated man says while raising his cup to the air. "Everyone cheers to the kings battle against SAMAEL finally coming to an end."

The crowd proceeds in a frenzy the army of Rizel's stomaches dropped knowing the SAMAEL wont stop till Geist is up in flames.But you may ask why SAMAEL and Rizel have such a rivalry. About years before Rizels father passed and he became king SAMAEL and his family lived in geist before their house went up in flames. The house was set on fire due to Rizel. He had been carrying a torn in the night with his father and the guards. why they were out their so late in the night seems as though they were committing an arson. SAMAEL had seen them that night and burned in the house. He lived and swore that he would return the pain and suffering his family and him endured to the whole kingdom.

That night as Rizel slept he awoke in the middle of the night to a letter on his mantle. Rizel had seen it and went over to pick it up. As he read he feared the worst for the days ahead. the letter read:

I am Still here i haven't left. I've just been behind the scenes. but don't hold you breath anymore i will make my final apperance and it will be as you say a grand day for blood.

As he placed the letter down he alerted The Guards and Grim. He went back to his room and sat in bed worried even more he knew that while he was gone he was planning something and if he could get so close that the whole kingdom wasn't safe and feared for the next day.

"Rizel! Wake Up We Have Trouble In The Arena". shoving him to a awaken state, Grim gathered the armor.

"Is it Samael?" He asks very Prepared.

"No my lord."

"Then why trouble my sleep if you are trained to take care of it?"

"Someone has challenged your blade my lord."

"Oh a glorious day for blood shed."

"Yes It Sure Is."

Rizel Suited up in the most finest of armors trimmed with a gold platted chest plate shined after every battle. Gold lion on the front of his shield and a sword graved with his chant of war. "With this stroke I paint the earth below."

Sun gleaming across the courtyard, dust kick up as he gracefully shuffles to the entrance. Soaking the glory of the crowd gathered inside the grand stadium.

"Grim the locals were alerted?" he asked making his last adjustments

"Of course they've paid good money to see you slay this man who doesn't know of your legend."

Grim says handing him his sword and helmet.As he approached the man he realized he wasn't the average challenger of the kingdom. He stood three or four feet over Rizel, Chest branded with cuts and bruises. one eye gone the other barely open, grinding his teeth stained with blood, placing his feet in the ground.

" Why no blade? Do you know of me? Maybe not-Rizel Hardus The slayer, the peace keeper, And a hand that is one with the blade." He says raising his blade at the mysterious figure

"Ugggghhhhhh!" He screams, charging at Rizel

He takes a step back as the man runs by, dust curls and again the figure emerges from the smoke this time from an angle clashing into the shield, grinding his teeth, and feet still pumping through the earth. Knocking Rizel off balance, He gains his feet now realizing the seriousness of the task at hand. Standing firmly he braces his shield and raises his sword eyes looking and searching. He charges this time he jumps into the glare of the sun above Rizel. Thrusting his fist downward upon his shield. Rizel driving the shield into his rib cage the beast chuckles a laugh and speaks in a deep voice as he falls back into a ackward stance.

"Ready Now. HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Never been More Ready"

They both run toward each other, A slash from the blade of Rizel carves through the beast. not fazing him he continues to run into Rizel grabbing him, then tossing him down to the ground. As he walks around the laying warrior he laughs then picking him up by his feet he begins to spin. Shield scattering across the arena, and the blade falling perfect in the ground. He tosses him down again and Rizel gets up, now disarmed and still pondering on the where abouts of his weapons. Finally he regains his composure and waits as the beast approaches.

" I have an announcement I am the apprentice of SAMAEL. I am not only here for your king but im here to KILL you all."

The crowed appalled and fearful breakout into a stampede to the exits. As Rizel's army gather in the arena. Rizel gets his weapons back. Just as they all get ready to strike the beast a loud uproar from the rear entrance just as they turn SAMAEL barges through the door.

"Starting without me." He chuckles at the end standing with several others.

They adjust them selves toward both sides. Rizel emerges from the army head held high looking inside SAMAEL'S eyes. Not a word was exchanged after he made his entrance. Many say they battled for weeks and months but it doesnt matter what legend says. All we know is that SAMAEL still walks the earth and Rizel Is no more.

REVIEW

This lengthy story is a charming read, and full of excitment and adventure. The people that have commented on this myth have had little to change. I can assure though that the little things that were changed have made this myth surpass all expectations. Rizel the main character has trials that he has to go to with other character.

Basketball Hooter By: Keon King

My names James Saunders, I am a junior at ridge wood high. I play on the basketball team, and our basketball team has not made the playoffs or got a state championship since I was on varsity as a freshmen. I made varsity when I was a freshmen, everybody was surprised but I was not, I knew I had the skills to make varsity I was also a starter so I was really one of the best things going on in ridge wood high. This year, I am determined to win state championship.

Me and my coach are very close with each other he's known me since I was just 7 years old. He was a math teacher for the ninth graders. When it was lunch time I always went to his room for lunch and we would just talk. He told me he needed to tell me something very important and he did not want me to say anything to anyone. He told me that their was a 6'5 shooting guard coming to our school that he recruited from France while he was in vacation over there. He had mentioned that he went to the courts and saw the kid play and he was good, his handles were amazing. Coach told me that his name was Ron Paul. I was a slightly jealous at first because I was the star of the team but I just thought to myself it would be nice to actually have some help. I was thinking that we can go all the way with just two really good players. Coach told me that he was coming in one week but we wanted him to be a surprise to everyone so he was just going to be a regular new kid at the school but when ball season came around he would share the spotlight with me.
It was a week later it looked like Ron was getting more comfortable he was making friends and even becoming friendly with teachers. I noticed Ron started hanging out with a very bad group of kids, they were actually a big group of bullies. I didn't really pay attention because i thought that Ron was a good kid and he wouldn't let the group he was with influence to do any bad things at all.Ron started to kind of bully some kids with the group he was with but I didn't really care for it it looked like he was just playing because he had a big smile on his face when he was doing the whole thing.
Tryouts were today and their was a boat of new freshmen trying out and a few Cophmores and like two or three juniors. I was exited i was hanging out with mostly everybody from last years team we were on the bleachers gossiping about all the new people that were trying out, Then we seen Ron the biggest kid out there putting up a few shots and i watched him he only missed one shot in the whole half hour that everyone was warming up for tryouts. Coach Collins blew the whistle and told everyone to go to the baseline. Their was three other coaches with him coach Williams, Johnson, Jennings. They were asking everyone for names and grades. Coach Johnson and Jennings took care of the freshmen and sophomores because they were automatically on junior varsity. Coach Collins and Williams took the juniors and seniors. We went to a different gym from the JV players so we could have a whole court to ourselves. Coach broke us up into four different teams. Me and him went at it shot after shot with each other.
The next day the team was posted me and Ron were the first two names up there. We had practice but while I was in the locker room I heard Ron and someone else surprisingly I seen him trying to take some kids money but I thought he was just playing. Time passed and we were getting ready for our first game. Ron seemed to be more aggressive with everyone in practice and was started not be the nice guy I thought he was. After our last practice Ron was in the locker room before everybody going through bags and everything I did not pay attention. Today was the day of our first game. It was first block I seen Ron in my physics teachers class going through his bag while my teacher just watched then he started beating my teacher up after he had taken all of his stuff. Ron and my physics teacher were really close with each other so I thought they were just playing so I didn't pay any attention to it all.
Today was our first game everybody had on the school colors red and black. It was the end of the day and it was game time. Everybody was in the locker room getting geared up. I was talking to Will he was on the team last year and hes a junior. He told me if I knew about what Ron was doing to other students and guys on the team. He said that he was stealing and taking everybody's stuff bullying everyone also. I wasn't really surprised I believed how couldn't you. He hung out with a group of bullies I've seen him take peoples stuff, but I would hold all that off until after the game. It was game time me and Ron were in the back court. We got the ball first after tip off. Me and Ron went off in the first half i had 25 and he had 24 points. the score was 55-50 we were up. We came out of half time ready to play. Ron went off and scored another 20 points I scored another 22. game was close 108-110 with eight seconds left. We let our point guard try and take the last shot he rushed up the court with the ball and he took a quick pull up and it rimmed out. I looked at Ron at the end of the game he was so mad. Once everyone left the lockers Ron was still in there with our point guard I heard slamming and everything I ran over pulled Ron off of him and i had to slam him down and tie him down until my coach came. Once he did he took Ron but I had heard Ron had ran away from the police and our coach and was never seen again. People sometimes like taking up the fame and when that happens they get into themselves.

Shicoren Myth ( Assassin)

Once there was a great assassin who was feared by everyone in a small town called Markent.He could kill from a great distance, then flee before is victim hits the ground.His weapon of choice was always a sniper, but if was at close range it would be a knife.He became a threat to the police when he wouldn't let the police do there job.

When his son was killed by thugs, thats when he take matters into his own hands.He would never rest until he found his sons killers, and bring justice to all and bring to their town. One night as he was at home from his night job he got a phone call in the middle of the night. The person had spoke in a deep voice and had said his son was still alive. He was in shock. The assassin could not believe what he just heard. He said , it couldn't be true because he saw my son die in cold blood, and had buried him last year.The man on the phone said.

"If you want to see your son again you will do jobs for me."

He didn't know what to believe so he just agreed to do it if he really had is son.The man put his son on the phone to prove he had really had his son. Then the man said.

"You will receive a call in 24 hours."

The next night he had gotten the phone call.Their was hardly any conversation the man got right to the point.His first task was to take out the head of the Japanese mob boss. He took the task. As soon as the assasain went to the place he immediately took out his target.No one seen a thing.He would kill night after night.His plan was to not kill them but to interrogate them.he thought by doing this he would become closer to his real target and get his son back.

Review:
This story's background is great. It gives you a brief analysis of the main character and his call to adventure. Also it has good transitions from scene to scene. On the other hand it could have been longer. It also could have left the reader not knowing if he saved his son. It had a few grammatic errors. But overall it was a great story and I enjoyed reading about the skillful sniper.

Aldian by Donte

My myth is about a heroic family that was well known in the united states in the 1900s. What made them heroic was the things that they did such as save people from bank robberies stop speeding trains bring viscous criminals stop wildfires repair buildings that have been damaged in such things as in earthquake tsunami hurricanes tornadoes and hurricanes. They even saved the president from an assignation attempt but after that it looked like they were framed so they were betrayed by there country. they try to think of a way to prove that they were framed after they were asked peacefully to leave the country so they did they left and started a new life in Mexico they were very helpful there they helped raise money and help make that place better they did. some of the things they did for Mexico is take down some crime lords give food .Soon they went to help reduce the death tool and help rebuild it and also start over again in they helped give medicine to the people that need it because they hated seeing people die so young they felt that that was wrong so they came up with a cure for cancer leukemia and HIV and aids. another thing that thy did was build a community house for all homeless people to live they severed as much as they wanted 2 each person each day found there family's if there was any still around got them a new wardrobe and when and if they were welling got them jobs of there choosing it did not matter if they wanted to sell candy what every they wanted they had it and the best part is you can staying that house for free for as long as you want they only rule was no illegal weapons unless you have a permit. Another thing that they did in was rebuild house that had collapsed from earthquakes hurricanes or house that did not have a good structure to begin with and when they did rebuild the house they gave it a whole new look if it was not handicap accessible they made it so that it was if it had no heat or air they made it so that it was they even made it bigger for big families that were crammed in to small places. They did the same thing in Mexico also. One other thing that they did in Mexico was increase the tax for the rich and makes no taxes for the poor if they could not afford it after they did. Later on during there stay in Chile they told the people about them self and what made them unique. The mother was super intelligent. The father had super strength. The son had super speed. And the daughter could make anything from her parts of her body.Later on after they told everyone the government called them and said the could come bake to the U.S t o help them like they did Chile they accepted.

An interview with the author Donte

Donte’s says that a lot of stuff happened in the late 1900’s so he wanted to set the story in that time. It is a story that about a family that was disbanded from the U.S and tries to make a comeback and enter back in the U.S his experience was challenging and different from other projects but at the end it was all worth because he had fun.

THE UNIVERSAL THEORY by Marcus A. Cardwell

Have you ever wondered how the universe came to be and the destructive powers that the universe has. So many things have occurred in the universe that we are not even aware of, but there are some beings as we call them that have these special powers such as Omni awareness the ability to consciously know what happens in the universe. These beings are protectors born from energy of the big bang and since energy can never die neither will them. These creatures are given an assignment every time there is great distress for a planet or something that could proof to be of important use, "to fix" the problems as they call it, but in a human's mind it would be called annihilation, but this story is about a certain being, no one knew its name or how to stop it until this year.This being's name is Athe and he was the most powerful of the entire guild that he was a part of. Though he was the one with the worst reputation from the guild. Even Athe was so powerful in fact that for him to materialize cost millions of peoples life force, In the future millions of people would never get the chance to live and the only shape Athe knows is the a very powerful bird prey the phoenix but manifests himself through a smoke cover, but his most popular means of appearance is through possession and that is where our story begins.In Harlem at the mathematics-science library a young group of kids who were studying for their metaphysics test. One of the friends Maja had jumped out her seat with a disturbing look on her.being Maja's friend Dre, Keira, Steve they dismissed her jump as a case of nerves for the test they had the next day just as she did. Sadly it was really Athe taking control over her body.Then as she walked over to the water fountain she started to shake uncontrollably she fell. The library started to shake and books flew off the shelves, but realizing that the only thing her friends could have done was run outside directing the other people to the exits and call 911 they did just that,but Maja was getting worst her eyes turned black,and Maja's eyes cried blood, and she started to scream in agony her skin started to rip and tare. her arms were cutting ripping her shirt and jeans blood rolled down her legs and arms. During that loud cries of help chilled not only Maja's bones but her friends bones also. While starring at the door a voice yelled out of Maja's mouth" the end is coming along with me you can't stop me.I will solve the problem you created you insensitive destructive humans." Strangely as the ambulancecame everything turned back almost as if someone pressed a rewind button on a movie. Then Maja woke up with no recollection of what happened to her and the library when they visited her in the hospital.The fear in Maja's eyes grew to the point were she almost had a panic attack. then just as Dre,Keira, and Steve left the same voice came out of Maja's mouth again and she said "even if I wanted to help there is nothing I can do this races fate has been decided." It was different then before Maja was able to control him and commanded Athe to say his name. Then she screamed "Athe". Next she commanded him to say what his mission was and she shouted again he said "my mission was to destroy the earthe and that though he wanted to save the human race but he couldn't do that." Strangely Athe didn't understand that being the second most powerful member of his guild he would be able to do the possessing thing no problem aslo since its his specialty. He never ran into this problem before. In that moment Athe thought to himself this being must be stronger than others the guild has run across. Then finally Athe shouted from Maja's mouth again "my mission is to annihilate the human race they have taken advantage of this precious gift that they live on."Maja's friend’s Dre, Steve, and Keira went to the library to find out anything about Athe. When they came out talking about Athe a homeless man told them he knew about maja and Athe, also that his name was Luceme. He told them to follow him but with the the low credibility he had as a homeless man they decided Dre will follow and Steve and Keira went to the space museum. Dre got trapped following Luceme, there was a bright black and dark purple light swirling around him. Then Dre screamed out" I’am the all powerful general luceme and the human race will fall at my hand." Then keira got a call that Maja was moved to a psychiatric hospital after another epileptic attack. The nurse that called her told her that Maja was talking about a general coming to finish what she started. Really was of the essence when Dre ,possessed, flew into the sky and turned the sun red. Keira and Steve ran to the psychiatric hospital as Maja was admitted to a room and when they got to her she was in a trance, her eyes where white, she was babbling incoherently. Saying things like "regnad ni si dlrow eht eht espylacopa si gnimoc gnola htiw lareneg emecul".So they recorded it but neither of them could understand what she was saying. Their professor was the also the linguistic professor at their university so they brought him the recorder, he researched it. The tape was the simplest thing in the world to their professor,he told them she was speaking backwards so they reversed the tape and heard her say" the world is in danger the apocalypse is coming along with general Luceme." So they went back to the hospital to ask Maja what they needed to do to stop this future tragedy. Still in the trance Maja told them ,speaking in a doubled male and female voices, "you must find the orb of draconic energy and the phoenix's wings combine them in front of her and I will do the rest". Her eyes glowed and blasts of energy flew from her eyes into Keira and Steve’s eyes. A map was shown in there head and showed them the first. The location of the orb of draconic energies.A bright bluish white light exploded out of the room. Then Keira and Steve woke up in a tent in nineteen ninety four. They were given glasses even though others weren't as they asked the lady who gave them the glasses why she did and the woman murmured angrily " stupid humans your race is so primitive and disgusting. " They replied "what". The woman yelled back in a deep voice "put them on" and the glasses flew on their faces and the tent was suddenly filled with all different types of beings. All of a sudden a couple had jumped of the stands and ran towards Keira and Steve. Keira took a pole from the wall next to them that was used in the show and swatted the woman across the face. Then Steve took another pole and as he beat the male the others swarmed around him. He told Keira to sneak away and get the orb. So she snuck away and found the orb near the seal. She walked closer to the seal and stabbed it in the eye. Then as soon as Keira grabbed the orb an explosion burst Steve open and the aliens blew up. A white light appeared and Maja hovered out of it. Then Steve rematerialized. Maja told them now that Steve had proved himself with a sacrifice he has gained the power to materialize. Maja told Keira to hold on to Steve and as she did they blew up and materialized on a beach. Ten women ambushed them as soon as they arrived and sent Keira to a camp and Steve to the queen. Keira was walking around the camp and a woman pulled her aside she saw scars on her face with blood flowing down her leg. She asked Keira to find her daughter and set her free, her daughter was made the high priestess on the day she was born and she has been the phoenix's wings. Keira agreed to help her as long as she got to keep the wings, the woman agreed. Then Keira started to look for the girl but instead found steve and the queen. Then Keira saw the queen was Maja spiting out eggs on the couch that Steve was chained to.Keira was watching from a corner when Maja started told Steve." I'm sorry but if I don't lay these eggs the first step will be for not." while Maja walked back to her thrown Keira moved to the couch and unbuckled Steve's hands and told him to act like nothing happened. She backed away as Maja moved closer. Maja started to caress Steve's face telling him that he needs to bleed over the eggs as the next step. Then she took his wrist as he tried to escape and struggle and cut him. Blood splattered on the eggs and The eggs sprung into the air and started to glow with a bright blue light. Keira first staring at the eggs glance to her side and saw the little girl as she walked in the room with the wing's. Keira jumped on the girl, took the wings grabbedSteve and they materialized in the hospital roomwith the girl ,and as they took the things out the girl ran away while general Luceme "possessing Dre" crashed into the room and through Maja out the window. As Luceme and Maja "still possessed by Athe" flew in the air fighting and throwing blasts, the eggs appeared,Maja told Steve and Keira to cut the eggs open and poor the liquid on the orb. As they did the the orb glowed bright.Keira and Steve put the wings under it and the materials turn into an owl made of a mixture between gold and metal. Maja caught the bird flew into the sun, and as general Luceme followed through the core of the sun she smacked his head off with the owl. Then Maja took the bird and smashed it on Luceme' body in place of his head. As the bird screached Luceme's body turned to solid gold and was in cased in a crystal as Maja came back the sun changed its color and she fainted.Athe flew away telling them that he was greatful for what the human race had shown him. That though we have flaws we possess the greatest strength of all hopeand determination and that though he will be free from the guild's control he will always protect them and the earth. Then strangely the same thing that happend to the library before hapend again and they all woke up in the library the same day they had their big test but something wasn't right happened Dre wasn't there and Maja had no memory of it, but Keira and Steve would always remember and call for the help of Athe if the earth was ever again in perrel which with the global worries something tells me will be soon.

THE END

REVIEW

This very interesting story has some off pieces when it comes to mythological theories it definitly focuses on a science fiction point view, but the elements of myths are in there such as a call to adventure and the belly of the whale. These six characters have a tough time trying defend the human race and save it aswell.

REVIEW
this story of a prince and princess is more of a rescue mission. It has a charming tale close to some others, but in a new light it shows great potential. The island of belgada is definitly a new terrain that the prince/ warrior that save his princess.

An interview with the author Brian

Brian says that his story is the basic fairy tale story but with a twist of a little action wear the princess was rich and guy she meets is poor and humble which his ideas come from his favorite type of TVs shows which is superstitions and sci-fi which he had a lot of fun and what’s more interesting is that the story takes place in the late 1600’s old fashion
