Grandfather

The blast of the Air Conditioner in the train hit me with full force as I slowly pushed open the door. Men and women sat on either side of me, frowning slightly and looking grim as they stared at me, seeming to scrutinize every last detail of my face.

                26….27….28…..ah! Here it is! 29! I leaped onto my seat with a strange, childish delight and attempted to make myself comfortable on the cold blue seat.

                “Good to see you too, John,” a voice whispered to my left. How could someone have come and sat next to me without me noticing? I turned my head in surprise to the sound of the voice. Next to me sat a young boy, in his early teens, smiling a brilliant smile and one that immediately propagated the idea that he had absolutely no troubles at all.

                ‘H-h-how do you know my name?” I asked nervously, hoping that my face wasn’t too pale.

Children for the Environment

Hey Guys,
i've joined this organization CFE that helps the environment. Heres a bit about it...
You've learned about it. You know everything about it. You know how you can help. You know it will make a difference.
SO WHY DON'T YOU DO IT???!!!
Endless videos. Articles. Discussions. Ideas. Motivation. All of the hard work put in by activists around the world is put to waste if you don't take a stand. Show others that they are wrong. Show others how to save the very planet we are depleting everyday. Show the others that nobody cares: not the politicians, not the businessmen, not the builders.

The Brothers (Based on a True Event)

The steady beat of the train had barely appeared to be settles when an ear-splitting squeal pierced the air. Passengers around and in front of me shut their ears in disgust as our train screeched to yet another halt. The third in ten minutes.

                It was typical of India. Those who pay more get direct train services. Those who pay less- well, an hour trip would be turned into a four hour one. Yawning slightly, I paid a slight glance at the sign dictating, in its usual and orderly fashion, the name of our stop: Rajnagadi. An icy claw of fear plunged into my heart. Perspiring and pale, I sat up straight and looked at the sign once again.

                Rajnagadi was the sight of one of India’s most disastrous cases, one that had left all of our agencies clueless and prey less. The Oil Mafia had struck back, on the 23^rd of September, 2008. A young boy, Mulan Gaekwad, had been on his way to the local vegetable store when he spotted his brother, Popat Gaekwad, setting fire to an oil tanker. Rushing over, he asked Popat what he was doing and why he was doing it.
