A Curve In The Road Novels & Stories

It was Anthony, the second child of the family. Hannah glanced out the window. The moon hid behind dark clouds, and thunder rumbled with flashes of lightning from time to time. The strong wind howled. The rain was coming. The mountain road was also called "Death Route." It got that name because of its uneven surface and winding paths. There were steep cliffs on one side and a chasm on the other. There were many twists and turns. Many accidents happened on that road.

As Keith approached her with his dirty hands, Rebecca forcefully struck out her clenched fist. The room was in chaos. Shouts and dirty curses filled the air. Outside the room, people were also far from calm. The rundown mountain road was abandoned due to lack of use. It made the speeding vehicles seem eerie under the moonlight. "Sheldon, please slow down. This road is dangerous. We're doomed if something happens!" The mountain road was rough, but the car's speed remained unabated. The people inside the car refused to look outside. Yet, they couldn't help but catch a glimpse of the deep ravines and winding mountain roads under the moonlight. They wondered if the car might plunge off the cliff

She looked at me and I guess saw how nervous I was, and eager to get to school, "Just not too fast." As soon as I was at the wheel, we were flying, and got on time. I know Lilly was scared, but hey we were in a rush and I am a good driver, not gonna brag but I won a couple of races. As we were getting out of the car, Lilly smiled "You are not driving my car again, but I am glad we are here on time."

“Turn the U upside down, it's a mountain or a hill, could even be a cave. Turn it sideways you will form a C that could support the idea of it as a cave. Turn it on the opposite side, you will form an almost D without the line, if you put it all together, U as Under, upside down its a mountain, the other as a cave then turns to the other side, this thus means a curve.” (If you guys have difficulties understanding what I mean, try to draw four U’s on facing different sides, then read this again.) Silence enveloped the whole room as they were amazed by the alpha’s ability to decode such clues. “The only mountain that has a curve road is that place. Curve roads, a cave under the mountain after

The path curved until thick clusters of trees loomed ahead, their shadows spilling across the sand. Calley remembered noticing this spot before. She always assumed the road beyond led directly to the main road. But they did not go straight. Instead, they slipped into a hidden trail between dwarf coconut trees and lush gardens. She felt the shifting sand beneath her feet, surprised to find that there was a concealed walkway in this part of the property.

They don't need to add to the ever growing number. There is a sharp curve ahead, flanked by the towering trees lining either side of the road. As Andy takes it, suddenly they are blinded by approaching headlights, heading straight towards them, as the vehicle appears to be driving in the middle of the road. Andy swerves to avoid being hit head on but the car's tires catch on some the ice and send them careening about in circles down the thankfully empty road. “Damn it.” Andy curses out loud, taking his foot off the gas and the brake while he is trying his best to hold the wheel still. The sound of the childrens terrified screams fill the car, as Lacey braces her hand on the dash board.

I cautioned him but he wasn't listening. "Why did you swerve off the road that we were supposed to take?" Wait! Swerve off what path? Does this mean this isn't the path we were supposed to be on? I glanced around at my surroundings. It was a small Alley, its street was so tiny that it would be hard for two cars to pass at once. "There is a shortcut here that wouldn't take time so I thought it would be better if I went through this path," the driver answered. I could see his hand shaking on the steering wheel and all it would take was a little more time and we might get into an accident.

"Damn it! Quincy can't lose now. I've put my entire life savings on him!" "Hey! Quincy just pulled ahead!" Upon hearing those words, everyone focused intently on the track below. Quincy had overtaken Millie. A larger curve lay ahead, known as the most challenging on this route. It was said that this curve had caused numerous accidents, with many racers flipping over. After this curve, it was a straight road, and Quincy would surely pick up speed. If Millie failed to handle this curve, she would be left behind. For Millie, this curve was the perfect chance to overtake Quincy and gain the lead.

Annabelle had been waiting for the perfect moment, and it finally arrived in the second half of the race. The car ahead of her, a powerful GT-R, mishandled a sharp curve. The driver, overconfident in his vehicle's speed, was forced to slam on the brakes to avoid careening off the mountain. Annabelle knew this curve intimately; she had driven it countless times and knew every nuance of the road.

Alina stopped looking at what he was doing and started looking at what he wasn't doing. There. The third underground curve had a slight camber change on the outer edge, a subtle rise in the road surface that most drivers wouldn't notice or wouldn't trust. The natural line through that corner was the inside. Clean, predictable, well established by the groove worn into the asphalt from every previous race. Varell would take the inside. Everyone took the inside. The outer edge was longer and slightly raised and looked like a risk that didn't need to be taken. Alina looked at it differently.
