One day, John and his mates were swimming in the lake. Suddenly, Allen got caught in the branches of a fallen tree. He tried to get loose, but he was almost under water. Peter saw that Allen was in danger and said, "Hold on, mate! I'm coming!" Peter tried to swim toward Allen and said, "I don't think I can get there fast enough." John said, "But I can!" Peter cried, "John! Are you crazy?! The water's too deep for you over there!" John started swimming toward Allen and said, "I'm going to get him out of there or die trying!" Since Caryn had taught him to swim, John became a faster swimmer than Peter. John managed to reach Allen and free him from his trap. Allen said, "Thank you, John." John said, "You're welcome." Stan said, "Great work, John!" Peter asked, "How did you learn to swim so fast, mate?" John said, "Caryn taught me." Allen said, "I'm glad she did. Your swimming lessons came in handy." John said, "I'm glad it did." Later, John told Caryn and told her how he saved Allen's life, because he knew how to swim. She said, "That's wonderful. Is Allen okay?" John said, "He's fine. He learned not to swim so close to fallen trees." She said, "I'm glad I could help you become the brave hero I know you are."

Hi, everyone! Antonia here, and I decided to do something a little different. The members of The Devil Wants Peace are some of my fans' favorite characters, so I thought I would type this up for all of you to get to know them a little better.

John
John is the lead singer and guitarist. He loves his band more than life itself and would do anything for his mates. He is very loyal and always puts others first. John is an animal lover. He has a German Shepherd Dog named Thunder and thinks the world of him. He also hates to run over animals, which is shown when he tried to avoid running over a fox....

The Devil Wants a New Religion: The Tour Final Part

posted by Peaceandlove67

On the final night of the tour, the two bands decided to give a concert performance based on what the audience wanted to hear. They mainly suggested some classics from both bands. They also suggested a few cover songs. Among them was the Oak Ridge Boys hit, "Elvira". Paul knew the song by heart, so he sang the lead. John chose to sing bass. After the concert, Erin said, "I didn't realize you had such a big range, John." He said, "Most of the fans don't realize it either. When they talk about me and my band mates, they always describe me as 'the one with the long, dirty blonde hair and the raspy...

One night, as the two bands were performing, Paul did not tell his friends that he was in a lot of pain. He managed to make it through the pain with every song. The pain was in his right side. After the concert, Paul was shaking violently. Erin asked, "Paul, are you okay?" He said, "Yeah, I'm fine." Lola said, "No, you're not. You're shaking." John said, "She's right. You're sweating more than the rest of us, too." Carl felt Paul's forehead and said, "You're burning up, buddy. You look very pale, too." Paul admitted that he was feeling pain in his right side. Stan asked, "Why didn't you tell...

One day, when the two bands were getting ready to meet for breakfast, Stan and Lola got stuck in an elevator. It wasn't just any elevator. It was quite dark. From a young age, Lola had a fear of the dark because of her poor vision. She had glasses for as long as she could remember. Pretty soon, she said, "I'm scared, Stan." He said, "We're just stuck. We can sound off the alarm for help. It'll be all right." She said, "I have a secret for you, Stan. Promise me you won't tell." He said, "Don't worry, Lola. All secrets are safe with me." She said, "I'm scared of the dark." He said, "There's no...

One morning, Paul got up earlier than usual. He sat out on the balcony and watched the sun rise over the horizon. John joined him and said, "That's a beautiful sunrise, isn't it?" Paul said, "I guess." There was a tone of sadness in his voice. John asked, "What's wrong, Paul?" Paul said, "Even though I'm doing better, I sometimes think I'm still not over my father's death. Oh, John, how did you get over your father's death?" John said, "The loss of a friend or a loved one is not something one gets over. You'll always miss them, but over time, dealing with it gets easier." Paul asked, "How did...

The bands' next stop was in New York. They arrived sooner than they expected, so they decided to walk around central park. When they came upon John Lennon's tribute, Erin said, "I'm crying already!" John said, "That's perfectly understandable." He had tears in his eyes, too. Allen asked, "Didn't you say you got into guitar because of his death?" John said, "I wouldn't exactly word it like that, but I came to know about the guitar after he died. I was nine years old, and my father was taking me home from an event with the school band. We heard on the radio that John Lennon had been shot and...

The members of The Devil Wants Peace and the members of New Religion had recorded an album together. After some time passed, they met to go on tour together. The two bands greeted each other when they saw each other. Erin asked, "John, how's your new dog, Thunder?" He said, "He's doing really well. I left him in the care of Grace and her aunt and uncle." Paul said, "I think you asked the right people to look after him." John asked, "What about your dogs, Yukon and Nunavut?" Paul said, "They're with my mother." The bands' first stop was in Chicago. Once there, they ate at a local restaurant....

Top Ten Reasons the Siberian Husky is My Favorite Breed

posted by Peaceandlove67

Hello, everyone! I decided that I'd make a top ten list about why the Siberian Husky is my favorite breed of dog. I've had two Huskies in my time, Diesel and River.

****DISCLAIMER: This list is based mostly on opinion. Please do not get a Siberian Husky expecting it to be like my Huskies. Each dog is different. Before you consider the responsibility of owning a Husky or any breed, do your research and choose your furry friend wisely.

1. The Siberian Husky is the most loving, caring breed.
My Huskies have been there for me during difficult times. Diesel was a big help in getting me to kick the...

Friends From the Start Final Part

posted by Peaceandlove67

After a long time of getting bullied, I began to consider self-harm. I confessed this consideration to Zoe and Gavin. Zoe said, "Please don't hurt yourself. It's not the answer." Gavin said, "Zoe's right. If you hurt yourself, you'll have to deal with all those scars. Why do you want to hurt yourself anyway?" I began to cry. He hugged me and said, "It's all right. You can tell me." I talked about all the bullying I was facing. Zoe said, "Alyssa, those bullies are just losers. You have family and friends who love you." Gavin said, "That's right. You don't have to hurt yourself. Any time something is bothering you, tell us." I said, "Okay." Zoe said, "If you hurt yourself, you won't be the only one who hurts. We'll be hurt, too." I said, "I don't want to hurt you all." We shared a group hug. Over the years, I gained some friends and lost some, too, but I still had Zoe and Gavin. They will be my closest friends until the end of time.

THE END

Even though I had really good friends, I still got bullied by a lot of people. A lot of times, they would tell me I'm going to Hell. Luckily, I had my friends to defend me. One day, some bullies started throwing rocks at me. Zoe said, "Hey! Leave my friend alone!" This only caused the bullies to throw more rocks at me. Gavin jumped in front of me, and allowed himself to get pelted by the rocks. The bullies soon got bored and left. I asked, "Why did you step in like that, Gavin?" He said, "They were throwing rocks at you, Alyssa." I said, "But you didn't have to get yourself hurt for me." He...

One day, in gym class, we were supposed to run the mile. Zoe paced herself and took her time. I just wanted to get it over with. I ran it as quickly as possible. After I finished, I was out of steam. I felt physically sick, too. After class was dismissed, Zoe said to me, "Alyssa, you look terrible." I asked, "What do you mean by terrible?" She said, "You're awfully pale." I said, "I feel sick." I suddenly began staggering. Gavin saw us, and he asked, "Alyssa, are you okay?" I said, "No, I'm not. Who turned the lights out?" He said, "Nobody. What are you...oh, no!" I said, "I think I'm....",...

The next day, Gavin and I got on the bus to go to school. He said, "Good morning, Alyssa." I said, "Good morning, Gavin." He asked, "You all right?" I said, "Yeah, I'm just fine. Why wouldn't I be?" He said, "Oh, I am so daft. I forgot I was in America for a moment. When someone from Britain says 'You all right?' or simply 'All right?', it means 'Hello!' or 'How are you?' It does not mean the same as 'Are you all right?'" I said, "That's interesting." He also taught me some British slang. He even taught me "bloody hell". "In Britain," he explained, "bloody hell is considered swearing. It's...

From the day I was born, I had a rough childhood. My mother died in childbirth, and my father was killed in a car crash when I was three years old. As a result, I was raised by my aunt and uncle. I knew that my family loved me, but getting everyone else to like me was harder. From pre-k to the fifth grade, I was a constant target for bullying, especially after I got glasses. Tell you what, let's not talk about that. Let's talk about after that, when I moved from Illinois to Tennessee. I'll admit that was a little bit apprehensive about moving. I asked my aunt and uncle, "What if everyone at...

Top Ten Reasons The Beatles are my Favorite Band

posted by Peaceandlove67

Hello, everyone! I know some of you have wanted to see this list, so I decided to type it up. You all know the Beatles are my favorite band. Here are ten reasons why.

1. They have a close-knit friendship.
I value friendship over anything else. The Beatles were very close friends, especially in the early days. I think it's important for bands to have a close-knit bond in order to make it. I try to emulate that in my fan fictions with bands. There are several examples of the great friendship the Beatles had. It would take up the whole article. I think my favorite example is where Paul faints and...

The next day, John and his friends went to the local shelter to look at different dogs. He said, "They're all so cute. How do I decide?" Erin said, "It's up to you, John." Paul then noticed a small dog and said, "What about this one?" As soon as John took one look at the little dog, it cowered in the corner. He said, "No. I don't want a dog that's timid." Just then, one of the dogs had escaped from its kennel and ran to John and his friends. The dog licked their hands and rolled over on its back, begging for a belly rub. Lola said, "Aw! I think she likes us!" The owner said, "Actually, this...

Some time passed, and although Paul still missed his father, he got better. One day, when the members of New Religion and the members of The Devil Wants Peace went into the studio, Paul was in a really good mood. At one point, he said, "You know what I don't get?" Erin said, "What, Paul?" He said, "I don't get why people say getting a tattoo hurts like hell, yet they got back for more. I never told anyone to punch me in the nose again!" Everyone laughed. Lola said, "He's back!" After recording a few songs, Paul said into the microphone, in an amazingly realistic British accent, "Thank you all...

When Paul hung up from his phone conversation, he let out a heavy sigh. "Is everything okay, Paul?" Erin asked. He said, "No." Carl asked, "What happened?" Paul said, "My father lost his battle with cancer." Lola said, "Paul, I'm sorry." Erin, Carl, and Lola hugged Paul. John said, "I'm sorry for your loss, Paul." Allen said, "I second what John said." Peter said, "I third it." Paul wanted to laugh, but he was in a lot of pain, not the kind of pain that occurs when you twist your ankle, or the pain that occurs when you hit your funny bone, no, the pain was deeper. Stan put his hand on Paul's...

The members of The Devil Wants Peace and the members of New Religion met in the recording studio that day. They began writing a song together. They began brainstorming a title. Paul said, "I have an idea. We should call it 'Stink Bomb'!" Erin said, "Paul! I'm going to wash your mouth out with soap!" John said, "That's a little harsh. He didn't even swear." Carl said, "That's just the two of them kidding with each other. Erin would never do that to Paul." They finally settled on "Feeling Saxy", because it was the first time in five years that John played the saxophone. Peter said, "I've missed...

A band from Portland has heard about you, and they want to collaborate on a new album with you." Carl asked, "Portland, Oregon or Massachusetts?" Mark replied, "Oregon." Paul asked, "Which band is it?" Mark said, "They're called The Devil Wants Peace." Lola said, "Oh, I've heard about those guys. I have their album, Out of the Dark Ages." Erin asked, "How did they find out about us?" Mark said, "Apparently, their bassist stumbled across one of your...
