Pompeii Novels & Stories

Harley introduced “Roman this is Bonnie, my friend. She’s on the same track team with me” she added “Hey Bonnie” Roman stretched out his hand to give Bonnie a handshake which she took politely “I can see what you’re doing here, Good job. And I’m sorry for your loss.” He added with a soft smile “Nah, it’s gone now. I’m good” she gesticulated with her hands as if wiping something off the air “Thank you, anyways grab a candle and write down your names with any last words for your loved ones. It’ll be engraved on their stones. The principal is dedicating a different section in school grounds in respect of the ones we lost, each with their own tombstone” Bonnie explained

“Just for a second. It’s like I blink and my brain… resets.” I force my voice steady. “You’re in the hospital.” “In Rome,” she adds softly. “Yes,” I say. Leah turns her head toward me slowly. “Did we go to Rome before?” The question hits like a punch. “We did,” I say cautiously. “The coastal trip. Not Rome.” Leah frowns. “I can see it. The river. The bridge. The stone.” My pulse spikes. The Ponte delle Arti. The bridge that keeps showing up in our dreams. In our metaphors. In our files.

She looked at him the stalker who had become her shadow, the monster who was now her weapon. "Are you ready to be a ghost, Devi?" she asked. "I've been a ghost for twenty years, Cali baby," he replied, his obsessive gaze locking onto hers. "I'm ready to be the nightmare." The Pantheon stood like an ancient, stone beast in the heart of Rome, its massive dome a silent witness to centuries of blood and betrayal. Usually, the piazza was swarming with tourists and pigeon-feeders, but today, it was a ghost town.

Not even the glorious sights of Pompeii washed away the anxiety lingering on my chest. This city, frozen in time under ash and pumice, is a monument to a horrific event. The landmarks are important sobering reminders of how fickle nature can affect our lives. Life and death unknowingly hung in the balance beneath the shadow of an angry volcano. Attractions like the Forum, the Antiquarium, and all the crumbling theaters were now nothing more than ruins. While our tour through the city was a humbling adventure, it gave me time to think. Hours spent walking, taking in the gravity of the events that occurred here over two thousand years ago, and the entire time, m

From there, he could head east to Pago Village or if he wanted to see a city, he should head west instead and venture forth until he reached the walled city of Magna. Ignis remembered himself being at a loss before since the details the Lady gave him were rather vague, but she said that the humans were too scared to explore the woods so the only road he’d find inside was the one that connected Pago Village and Magna City. True enough, Ignis never saw another path aside from where he was currently traversing. However, he had never traveled before, so they could still lose their way if he wasn’t careful. How did he become Mariana’s caretaker in the first place, again? Ignis had no clue.

she said brightly, and he nodded. "We're going to Silvan tomorrow," Amaria said. " It's really suspicious, Silvan is a small town but very rich in soil, they said the rich soil was a blessing from the spirit king of nature 'Gaia' that's why they have the healthiest fruits, vegetables and rear the healthiest animals, it has the highest exportation rate over the years because all the kingdoms under Ashmael Empire request goods from them yearly, I should know because I'm from there." Teresa stated

“Right. I’ll see you later?” I dare to press a tender kiss to her forehead. “I’ll see you later, princess.” Rome, Italy The city is built on a river, a mosaic of the old and the new. The centuries-old cobblestone streets are lined with modern lamp posts, and the exterior walls of buildings are painted in an array of muted beiges and pastels. On the surface, it’s a quaint riverside city. A perfect vacation spot for those who don’t mind the year-round cold.

She explained. ‘Urbs refers to ancient Rome, and the T and V refer to the Trevi Fountain and the city of Venice, respectively.” Alexander's eyes widened; he hadn't thought about that, or had he even thought about it at all? “The line about being called Urbs and then the eternal city is the other name that it is referred to.” She glanced back to meet Alexander's gaze. “Jake is in Rome, Metropolitan City of Rome Capital, Italy.” His lips curled into a smile as he glanced at her. She was grinning from ear to ear as he watched her. She got it all figured out; they were going to find Jake after he passed the information out to them.

There was the tower, that rose above the ground in the smearing colors by the night and the risen beauty by day- -there were the birds that made only the music that pleased their ears -the chirping in the evergreen trees of Renné. There were these beautiful things that stood out, that made the city a lot brighter- all of which Zach Harrison Dempsey hated so much. Slumped by the corner of one of the age old buildings of renaissance was Zach, his arms sunk into the soft duvet that lined across his wide bed. This close to three hundred pound teenager, had always risked the fact that he was close to being bed ridden, as he still gorged on some leftover pizza from the night before-

But, even if she could, the vehicle dashed past the palace and raced toward a much bushy area which soon led to a clearer view of another building. This one, compared to the palace was smaller. But the structure which was a basilica of some sort looked huge enough to occupy thousands of people at once. So, the many souls who were either walking, driving, or perhaps growling toward the four-dome roofed building would have no reason to be cast away from the party. Clarissa who had been making excited noises that Zara chose to ignore said, “We have to go in through the back. It will be terrible for anyone to see us in these plain dresses. We will change in the room reserved for the Beta.”
