The wave roared towards them with speed and
violence they had not anticipated. They both
turned to run but by that time it was too late. The
wave crashed into their legs sweeping both of
them off of their feet. They now found themselves
in a washing machine of saltwater, getting
tumbled and not know what was up or down. Both
were scared, not knowing how this was going to
end, but it was by far the best time of the trip thus

Sleep deprivation causes all sorts of challenges and
problems. When one doesn’t get enough sleep
one’s mind doesn’t work clearly. Studies have
shown that after staying awake for 24 hours one’s
ability to do simple math is greatly impaired.
Driving tired has been shown to be as bad as
driving drunk. Moods change, depression, anxiety,
and mania can be induced by lack of sleep. As

There was no time. He ran out of the door without
half the stuff he needed for work, but it didn't
matter. He was late and if he didn't make this
meeting on time, someone's life may be in danger.

The light blinded him. It was dark and he thought
he was the only one in the area, but the light
shining in his eyes proved him wrong. It came from
about 100 feet away and was shining so directly
into his eyes he couldn't make out anything about
the person holding the light. There was only one
thing to do in this situation. He reached into his
pocket and pulled out a flashlight of his own that
was much stronger than the one currently blinding
him. He turned it on and pointed it into the
stranger's eyes.

The bush began to shake. Brad couldn't see what
was causing it to shake, but he didn't care. he had a

pretty good idea about what was going on and
what was happening. He was so confident that he

his face. That all changed the instant he realized
