“Where’s the fire ma’am?” the young man said. “ You get in there and answer that question for yourself, young man. I called you twenty minutes ago. Is our house about to burst into flames while we’re standing out here?”

All was still at the Woolsey castle for once. The louder pack members were out raising a ruckus on poor London. In fact the only ones left in the castle were the Lady Alpha, Alexia Maccon, and the newest pack member Sandelio de Rabiffano. Both were enjoying a nice warm cup of tea, Assam to be precise. Sandelio, better known under the moniker Biffy, didn’t much like being a werewolf, but on nights like this when he and his dear friend Alexia could sit in silence or in full gossip, it nearly made the experience tolerable.

“All Quiet on The Western Front” is a fictional German war novel written by Erich Maria Remarque. It is an anti-war novel written as a monument for the unknown fallen soldiers. ” This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped its shells, were destroyed by the war.” (Ch 1 9) Remarque published the profound piece in 1929, told based off his own experiences during World War I in the German army (Napierkowski).

While preparing for the final battle, Jones characterizes Howl as both brave and cowardly, suggesting that fearlessness is not what makes heroes brave; a hero is only brave by overcoming fear.

Since he is unable to tell anyone about the curse who doesn't already know about it, he is dropping hints for Sophie by saying that he "was born to a strange sight… [knew]where all the past years are,and who cleft the devil's foot" (374)which are lines that he has already fulfilled from

Right now, she is trying to soothe the kids. She does this every night, and every night, the children go to bed with the promise that tomorrow would be a better day. I can hear her walk back into the room, but my eyes remain fixated on the fire, hypnotized by their dance; a fiery consumption that sends up sparks and ash. She silently begins to clean up the shattered mess, sweeping up the shards of glass, and soaking up the whiskey and gin. Her face is a ghostly white, completely devoid of emotion. The soft tinkling of the glass is? accompanied by the low crackling coming from the hungry flames.

Fire leaped from the dragon's jaws. He circled … the trees by the shore shone like copper and

Day after day, we would pass the mansion building on our way to and from school. Branches of vines and clusters of moss crawled up the sides of the building. I could see the paint, tearing off the walls. People for years have said the mansion building is haunted, but I don’t believe it. They say people have been possessed and killed there. Olivia, of course, believes every detail anyone tells him. To teach him a lesson, we decided to plan to spend the night in the mansion building this Saturday.

By using sight as a sense, fire has risen in the middle of the story. Specifically, the meaning of fire itself, is something being burned, or is going to be burned.
