Hydro-Gene: A mind-blowing battle

Image
Hydro-Gene      Mr. Mind gazed up to see his short-term enemy boldly standing erect, teeth gritted and arms crossed. With ninja fury, Hydro-Gene slammed his foot against Mr. Mind's neck, and threw fast paced punches all over his body. To finish it off, Hydro-Gene dissolved into gas and loomed high above Mr. Mind head. Then, he regenerated solid, and bulldozed Mr. Mind's head to blood-ready asphalt. Mr. Mind groaned and raised his hand, pretending to retreat while actually summoning a telephone booth nearby. Hydro-Gene was taken aback as glass formed a cove around his head and pure metal nearly knocked him out. Hydro-Gene lay there motionless as Mr. Mind wrapped a lightning pole around his neck. Forget the citizens. First he had to save himself. 1 month earlier.....      "Mission control air board, Patrick here. I have to report some slight turbulence, no big deal. We are currently hovering over the mid Pacific ocean, and we shall be reaching ...

Diary of a Kinney- Your favorite author      You've read 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' right? If not, your missing out on the hilarious misadventures of Greg Heffley, your average middle schooler and popularity write-off. In this riveting multi-book series, cocky Greg is paging off his marvelous, hysterical adventures in middle school, and lures the hearts of more than 150 million children worldwide(with 'Rodrick Rules' even being considered the best book in the history of books!). Though, who created such a masterful series? The man behind the magic is none other than the author extraordinaire, Jeff Kinney.      Jeff Kinney was born on February 19, 1971, and spent his childhood in Fort Washington, Maryland. At an early age, he was attached to still-popular books, spurning his desire to study and prescribe them. His favorite authors were Judy Blume, Beverly Clearly, etc., and he landed himself in the University of Maryland, one of the best universities i...

Rhyme Time: Ode to a Pizza

Ode to a Pizza      What's juicy, cheesy, meaty, and customarily feisty, what makes your eyes drool in delight, and makes your heart sheisty? What builds up the foundation, of all foods alike, why it's the pizza of course, which breaks the hunger strike. However, imagine, an occurrence so vile, as to banish all pizza, and to make all others turn senile. How could an occurrence, so horrible prevail? That, my friend, arouses this Piz-zany tale.      It all started out, in a land so fair, great Italy, Rome, the bearer of this delicious fare. The sun was shining, and all were about, slobbering on pizza, not a single pout. When all of a sudden, in the midst of this appeal, a rumble was heard, followed by a squeal. A gust of wind,  flew into the air, followed by its army, oh Italy beware. And just like in, the Wizard of Oz, a tornado was spurned, grasping Italy in its jaws.      Leaves rose, and people screame...

Incognito: The Time Warp

Incognito  by Aryan Mukherjee     "Ommmm". A solemn noise echoed through the air like the droning of a gong. Edward Cross, a professor in the field of moksha, was meditating towards his dream of two ultimate boons that would transmogrify him into his soul purpose, invisibility. Out of the blue, a 'poof' noise rang in the air and a blue cataract was exhaled upon Edward. "I am Lord Shiva" a voice deeper than the Pacific Ocean growled. You shall have your two boons. Edward grinned, and cried "For my first boon, I request invisibility". "What do you wish for your second boon", Shiva inquired. "I'll hold off for that one" Edward mumbled, and Shiva disappeared with his telltale 'poof'.     That same day, at the bank, two bulky figurines broke glass, and not with their voices, but through the door of this heavily guarded Irvine-vetoed bank. They were, forsooth, the two most notorious thugs in all of Irvin...
