The North Pole (N.P.) is one of the most important military and manufacturing zones in North America, and it is controlled by the United States; it has a permanent population of approximately 120 000 workers and is located within the Arctic Circle. This paper will explain, using the system view and the network view of human geography, why the North Pole is a terrible place to live.

Chapter one: Friend

I was travel through the highway, my life, at a very fast pace. A person normally travels without bothering about who or what is around him. I'm always against that.

     The sound made from the continuously ringing phone, had been going on and off for close to an hour. When the middle age man finally heard the constant chirping he had been dreaming of. Simply opening his eyes was a formidable challenge. Looking around the small space with blurred vision he finally realized he was at home; and some one was calling. Before the dim remembrance of yesterday faded back, the room started spinning and the urge to expel reminisce of the night before was over powering.

A strange cold began to penetrate deep into her bones. Staggering and shivering, Tina struggled not to fall. In her shock, she found herself on her knees in the mud. Leaning with her shoulder against the wooden boards of the stable pen, everything around her started spinning. The noise of the horses kicking and snorting didn't reach her anymore. ""By Spring, what is happening"" Tina whispered in a desperate prayer while everything around her started to blur. Something icy cold touched her shoulders as her vision slowly returned.

The high pitched whistling had finally subsided. He had been stunned by the blast and as Kelvin stood up and regained his composure he examined himself. His clothing was severely burnt, it was smouldering in places, but try as he might there was no sign of injury. He was hurting all over, but there was no sign of so much as a scratch?

The landing pads were set up on a hill before the town, and as the shuttle descended upon the mining colony a missile screamed up from the surface and ripped through the side of the craft splitting it in two. The front half was launched upwards and away in a ball of flames by the explosion, whilst the mostly intact rear fell crashing onto the landing pad below. The ball of flames landed on the side of the hill and rolled flicking smouldering chunks away before crashing into a storage building and causing a massive explosion.

Why is it that the mind focuses on the tiniest of details when facing the short wait between intensely overwhelming experience? The settling dust tickled the back of my neck. I made nervous sketches in the sand. Insect bites tingled with an irritating itch.

It was Tuesday, around six-thirty in the evening, and Greg was excited about getting back to The Darke for his meeting with Jack. For some reason, he showered and shaved very carefully. He made sure his .38 was ready to go; he was going to wear it on his right ankle. He brewed a small pot of coffee and then laid out his clothes. His gut instinct told him that an awful lot of questions concerning the murder-suicide would be answered tonight. Whether he would get enough information to prosecute would remain to be seen.

Mules and Giraffes
A long time ago, two very different types of animals: Mules and giraffes, settled in the small town of Neocity...
Neocity was an incredible place, with paved and cleaned roads and a wonderful park, called Neo Park, located in the center of the town.
At one time the mules and giraffes lived in peace, enjoying picnics together in the large green areas of Neo Park.
But that was a long time ago, when being different didn't seem to matter.

Just something I wrote before doing Willows Run. And something for you guys to read while i work on Chapter 4 of Willows Run.

Prologue

Inside The Mind Of Seth Kingsley.

Part 1: Living - Beginning

I saw a baby be born today. Another life coming into the world. And I couldn't help but think how unfortunate. People smile and cry tears of joy when we bring another life into this world. But I cant help but see the down side. Then again, why not celebrate the coming of another life. Another to endure the world we live in.
