Scarowinds Version 1 - The Playground

Lyx Nyx the Falling of a Rising Star

So it was game day, just another day for McKyner Our Lady of the Faith Assembly. After the season opener last week that was such an amazing success my team was riding high on euphoric dreams of season championship talks. Oh we were arrogant as we should be.
That night the cannon shot, we sprinted through the banner, all of us. Cheerleaders leading us into battle, Oh want an amazing site, school spirit at it's best.
My name was Zayne "Lyx" Nyx, the Rising Star the local papers called me, before the tragic accident that night, I was normal, well on the outside. All my childhood I struggled to hide my obsession with my cuts. Always picking the scabs I inflicted, intentionally or accidently... I had seen many shrinks, my parents deemed this abnormal behavior. Until I could hide it yet it always consumed me. So I was as the aforementioned the Rising Star of MOL of the Faith Assembly, and oh was I amazing Leading our school to victory almost every game each season since my sophomore year. So getting to that fateful night, the night that changed my world and the world of my school mates for ever.
We had won our game against our rival school. Then most of us went to party and celebrate our victory. We went to the elementary school down the road and cracked open the box of cigars we had gotten on our senior trip to the Bahamas. Some of the guys on the squad snuck in some liquor and we proceeded to act like we had won the Super Bowl.
Which in the following weeks would have been a reoccurring theme.
Later that night some of the guys and some of the cheerleaders broke into the rival schools playground, graffiti'd the place and left the place a mess. While playing around a Hazmat truck swerved off the road (the driver had fallen asleep) and smashed through the fence.  Every one but I and this crazy cheerleader had gotten out. Toxic ooze gushed out of the truck. The barrels shooting through the air, I tripped and smacked my head into the metal slide and knocking me unconscious. Ooze covering my body, the Cheerleader( for sake of naming and copyright infringement, Sally, no one likes to get sued), wiped me down and in contact the ooze contaminated her too...
I woke up to find Sally crying her eyes out on top of the play fort. Comforting her and letting her know that we could never go back. It was some time there and waited for people to find us, no one came. With no food we decided that we would consume the driver like cannibalistic beasts. Time passed we mutated more, more deranged, slinking out, to check on our old school during games from afar. Later on other children from our school and surrounding schools frequented the playground and some stayed and became deranged like us...
Beckoning small children to enter the toxic drenched play zone to never be seen again.

Jasper's memory in my mind!

I would like to think I have many friends that I care about and care about me. Let me tell you about my little brother. Jasper Aaron Harke, was born in Syracuse, NY on August 24th, 1994. Well, Jasper meant a lot to me, I pleaded with my mom to take this baby that was disabled. My mom said, "Let me pray about taking him because I'm not Sarah... If you don't know Biblical history, Sarah is Abraham's Wife... She was very old when she had her son. My mom raised lots of foster children and her 2 own and 2 own adopted. My mom is old... It's true pushing her way through the 70's... His bio mom was on drugs and she was a cocaine addict and probably on some other things. She gave birth to a normal baby but then took him home and blew coke in his face when he wouldn't stop crying. He ended up having a couple of cardiac arrests, the little man immediately ended up in foster care. It was quite miraculous he lived. If you are planning to be a parent someday and are do...

Spirit filled vs religious vs spiritual

What is the difference between being religious, spiritual and spirit filled? Webster's dictionary says that being religious  is "relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity". Webster's dictionary says that being spiritual is "of, relating to, consisting of, or affecting the spirit or  concerned with religious values". According to the Collins English dictionary being spirit filled or the charismatic movement is this, " Christianity  any of various groups, within existing denominations, that emphasize communal prayer and the charismatic gifts of speaking in tongues, healing, etc". Here's my take on this, Jay Z said on  Watch the Throne, "You ain't gotta go to church to get to know yo' God" raps on the song Threat that he's killing people but it's a valid statement. I loved church, I guess but when life experiences change us as an young adult as in my bipolar manifestin...

The Lil' Pisser That Grew Two Stories

"I absolutely love how dumbed down society has become complaining about fairytales and comic book characters... The Brothers Grim wrote gruesome stories to scare children into doing good not feel all warm and fuzzy, that's the parents damn job... When I get a puppy I don't read him stories about Clifford the Big Red Dog to inspire him to grow up to be the size of a two story house. No I teach that stupid lil pisser that it's wrong to pee in the house then I give it chocolate after, so it knows it did a good job peeing on the pee pad on the patio... I'm just saying, I have some really great friends who are great parents, I hope... and I know some of you really do an amazing job. I'm just going to go out on a limb, because I don't work for them but... Disney messed this up for everyone..." I wrote this on Facebook... Because a friend's notification came to me after I got a little bit sassy from watching a comedy special... And boom! In the adv...
