Downfall Ellie Sanders Novels & Stories

said Professor Alex pleasantly. “I will announce something important to all of us. But first I will explain our current situation. You must know that the world is getting out of control. Last night, I chatted with a board member from the Hope organization. They think that if the world will collapse soon and within two months, seventy percent of the human population will become terrible creatures due to the 'S' virus,” said Professor Alex in a serious tone. All members of the Jaguar team listened carefully to Professor Alex's words.

Jules smiled and gestured me to go. As I walk my thoughts fly again. I also plan to visit mom in the hospital today because I’m sure her surgery is over. I quickly got to the locker room and quickly searched for my number. "2405, 2406, 2407,2408! Gotcha!" I smiled as I opened my locker but stopped suddenly when I saw an envelope in it. My hands shakingly reached for it. I open the letter wide-eyed. Good day Oxians! You are one of a lucky person invited to participate in a FALLING GAME.

And that normally people on building sites had safety equipment. “Um, Ellery?” “Yes?” “What happens if we fall?” Ellery twisted on the bars with practiced ease, the wind catching at the hem of her skirt and ruffling it up to show the pink bows at the top of her fishnet hold-ups. “We’ll probably die.” “I don’t want to die.” “Must be nice.” “Seriously. Maybe we should go down again?” “Just don’t fall.” “Oh, why didn’t I think of that?” Ellery laughed, harsh and a little rusty, the sound of it swallowed up by the empty air, lost to the sky. Then she spun around and began climbing again.

"Aren't you sad?" She shrugged. "It's just stuff. I can make more stuff." "What about the people? A lot of people just died!" Ellie kept walking. "How long have you lived there? How many of those people did you know? And now it's just gone." Ellie stopped and turned. Her brown eyes studied his face for a moment and her mouth twisted to the side in thought. "Yes, I will miss those people and it is sad. But this is war. Right now, the enemy has won this battle and standing here mourning won't change anything, except slow us down and get us caught. Those people, the ones that bombed us, are going to be counting the bodies and when they find a lot more stuff than bodies, they are going to be sea

I don't just want anyone to know. After all the abuses suffered I felt weak and dumb, I watch as Ellie walks towards the bed and falls on it with a great sigh. "From today, when you think you are powerful enough, come lay your hands on me and you will know that I didn't attend the Training Academy for nothing. It wads for people like you, you think you can keep placing me under bondage?" She hisses.

Her hair falls down on both sides of her face and some strands stick to her cheeks with the effect of the dried salty tears. “I wouldn’t even want to relive it,” Ellie says. “It’s just that there’s someone I don’t want to lose. He’s kind of the closest thing I have to a family now. And if he dies, where will that leave me?” Anna says nothing for a moment and chooses to reflect on Ellie’s words. She could not believe that Ellie can break down in tears this way. She had thought that the girl had a heart of rusted iron, and anyone who comes too close will get bruised.

I wave aside her words and ask again, "Who are you and why did you bail me? How do you even know me?" "One question at a time Mr. Wyatt. I can't answer what I can't keep up with." I let out a sigh in frustration before asking again, "Who are you?" "Yara So Min. Lawyer to Andrew Wyatt." The similar surnames catch me off guard for a moment but I regain myself and continue questioning her. "Why did you bail me out?" "Partly because you were wrongly imprisoned. Mostly because your presence is needed at the Wyatt mansion." At this point to say I'm lost is an understatement.

Ellie dropped her silverware onto her plate, meeting Declan's glare with one of her own, and I sipped my drink eagerly as I watched the dinner theater. Everyone else was getting drunk and shouting over each other to be heard, so they weren't paying attention to Ellie's conversation. "How was he a lair? Do you think maybe you were the one who hurt him and not the other way around?" Declan leaned forward to be closer to Ellie as he spoke. Ben leaned into my side, "This is so entertaining," He said and then shoveled another overflowing spoonful of potatoes into his mouth. "He told me he loved me and then abandoned me when I needed him the most!" Ellie all but shouted, and a few heads turned our

Callie was halfway through stacking a wobbly tower of clear storage bins when she heard that voice behind her. “You know,” Eli said, “if I die buried under one of these things, I want you to tell my story. Make it heroic. Like I died saving a child from a runaway cart of Rubbermaid.” Callie didn’t turn around. “You’re overestimating how much anyone here would care.” He stepped into her peripheral vision, grinning. “Still, I think ‘Fallen in the Line of Tupperware’ has a nice ring.”

The highest apartment building in the city, with the highest politicians, celebrities, and tycoons behind its walls. Years ago, the year we left, the building was at the edge of its collapse. The collapse was so tragic that the building at the top of every list never rose again. The building fell after the discovery of a dead body in the iconic fountain. The dead body of one of the servants who worked for my family. "She didn't deserve that kind of death,” I unintentionally blurted out as the pictures of the girl's body filled my head. "What?” Lauren spoke. I turned my head away from the crumbled building and looked at her, disappointment etched on my face.
