Reading Journal Week 19 - Visualizing

Carter and Sadie Kane riding on an Egyptian reed boat for their first time through the Duat. (They are the little tiny Cartoon characters sort of in the middle of the boat.)

Reading Journal Week 17 - Visualizing

This is a picture of when Percy Jackson and Carter Kane (in the form of an eagle) fought the Son of Sobek (The Croc) In the middle of a city. I photoshopped this picture because this was the main fight scene in the short story and it was pretty cool.

Reading Journal Week 13 - Visualizing

I know it's kinda fast, but I couldn't find a way to make it slower. It's supposed to look like when the man (Whom Katherine now Calls JB) came into the room where James Reardon, Jonah, and Jonah's parents sat talking about adoption. He appeared out of nowhere. I (surprisingly) used a word processor to make this. I didn't have a photo editing program on hand.

Reading Journal Week 12 - Asking Questions and Wondering

Q. What does this man "James Reardon" have to do with anything? It keeps saying he's from the FBI, but what does the FBI have to do with the mysterious addoptions?
A. Didn't find one yet.
Q. A man that seemingly came out of nowhere told Jonah to look at a paper on James Reardon's desk. What for? And how did the man come out of nowhere?
A. Still don't know, but I found out that the kids are going to talk to a person that knew where or when they came from. Possibly the man Jonah saw before was a time traveler.
Q. Why is Chip always mad at his parents?
A. Because they never told him he was adopted.

Reading Journal Week 11 - Predictions

          Jonah, Chip, and Katherine were looking through Chip's adoption records. One of the people that was listed as a contact was a man named James Reardon who worked for the FBI. Jonah already knew he was adopted, but wondered where. His parents decided to research where he came from before his adoption. The only person they found attached to his records was the same man, James Reardon. This man was in charge of two adoptions that happened in two different states, something weird is going on.
          I think that the kids are going to meet with this James Reardon person and get some answers.

Reading Journal Week 10 - Strange Conversations/Flash Fiction

          "No, you're probably thinking things. Man, you've must have hit your head hard. When we escape you've got to lay down and rest or something." said Tobias.
          "No, I'm not lying. I didn't get hit, everything is true." I responded.
          "Relax. Lets just escape and then we'll talk. OK?
          "OK, but please believe me."

          "Alright." He said unconvincingly.

          We ran away from where we were and escaped from the facility pretty easily.

          "That was too easy, things like this are never that easy." I told Tobias.

          "That's right." He said. "But for now the danger seems to have passed. As I promised, you must rest."

          I was about to resist, but sleep sounded so good especially next to Tobias. Tobias wasn't one of those guys that was sexy looking at first glance, and honestly, he wasn't my type. But for some reason, I really want to kiss him. Maybe it was the whole "switching bodies" thing that was doing this to me. I snuggled in next to him and fell asleep.

Reading Journal Week 9 - Strange Conversations/Flash Fiction

          The man knocked Jennie down and ripped the gun from her hands. "Come on Tris, lets go." he said.
         "Who are you?" I asked, not moving.
         "Its me Tobias. Don't you know?." He stretched out his hand.
        I shook my head as if to clear my thoughts. "Oh, yeah. Right, lets go." I said as I took his warm hand.
        We ran through hallways, past doors and into ventilation shafts. "Do you know where we're going?" I asked.
         "Yes. This is the way I came in to rescue you."
         "Wait." I pulled him into an empty room and sat down in a chair.
         "We have to go, why are you stopping?"
         "I have to tell you something."
         "What could be more important that escaping?"
         "I'm not Tris. I am Katniss, Tris's alternate dimension counterpart. Someone did something that switched our places. I don't know why. But I know one thing, I have to get back home."
         "You must have gotten hit really hard or something... Don't worry, It'll wear off."
         "No, this is real. I'll prove it. Now that that's out of the way, lets run."
