1. March 18, 2011 Vol. 2: Issue 6 Riverview Panther Times She sat down and examined her wounds. She looked around for a first-aid kit and spotted one. She weakly walked to it and healed all her wounds. She pulled out all her weapons and threw them towards where all the other ones were. She ran over there feeling a ton better then she previously was. She looked at the weapons and picked up a silver sword, her daggers, and fastened them to her belt. She saw a bow finely crafted from oak wood with red tips at the top and bottom with holes big enough to fill small knifes. She looked over and saw four tiny knives, then she ran over, picked them up, and put two in her bow. The others she put in her belt for throwing or if put right shooting from her bow. She looked around for an easy escape route but couldn’t find one. There was a load noise coming out of nowhere then she located the source of it which was the door. The doors fell down and three Culas came in. Culas are made out of water completely. They are made for guarding the king or the old king Draco, who is dead. The Culas are like super soldiers and can’t be harmed by any water weapons, or the ones Jennifer is using. Culas are about two times as tall of Jennifer and are armed with swords made from pure titanium and are almost indestructable. The swords have spikes made from each element. Wind, Water, Earth, Fire, and combinations of the two for example lightning. Continued on page2 Jennifer looked down at Draco’s dead body and then picked it up. She threw the lifeless body on to the throne. She looked at the body one last time and said weakly, “Rest in peace” The 13 th month of the year Smarch! It’s the 13 th month of the year. That’s right, scientists have examined the calenders that we use, the Gregorian calender, and discovered that there is a 13 th month! Every 83 years, the calender gains 1 day. Over the course of its use, the calender has gained 31 days, so it’s a new month! Smarch will be added near the fall of 2012 between September and October. The new month has led to the formation of a group who call themselves PPOGC, or People for the Protection Of the Gregorian Calander. “We don’t need another month,” says leader Mary Michi, “There’s no need for a new month.” People have even started writing Smarch Carols, to sing on the 21 st day of Smarch (Marta-Smarch), in which Mars, Earth and Jupiter will be lined up, creating a large magnetic field. On Marta-Smarch the large magnetic field will over power Earths gravity, not a lot, but enough to make everyone one Earth weight 1/6 as much. Here some Smarch Carrols: Continued on page 3 Smarch!

2. Jenifer’s Escape Continued from page 1 She aimed her bow at the smallest Culas, the one in the middle. The ones to the side were taller by a few inches. She shot the bow and it got the smallest one in the eye. The Culas became enraged, and charged at her. She put away her bow with great speed, and drew her sword. They swung their swords at her and missed. She picked up one of the small knives, and stabbed the middle one in the heart. She jumped back but the Culas cut her stomach barely. The Culas was weakened badly and was going to be an easy kill. With great agility, Jennifer ran behind the weakened Culas and stabbed him in the back, and ran. The smallest Culas died. Jennifer smiled slightly. She selected her next target, the one on the left. The tallest and strongest Culas. The Culas charged at her and stabbed her in the leg. She was weakened tremendously, but had to keep fighting. She ran and grabbed the dead Culas’s sword. She threw it, and got the large Culas directly in the heart. Killing it instantly. Jennifer heard someone coming towards her and the last Culas. She thought in her head, “I hope this isn’t another enemy coming to kill me because if it is…. I’m going to die.” The figure came through the door, and she collapsed. When she awoke she checked her wounds and they were all bandaged and she was lying down inside a hut. She screamed and the figure came back and told her, “It’s ok, Jennifer. You’re in safe hands.” She stared in amazement at him and said, “ Y-Your dead…. How are you still alive?!” He told Jennifer to get up and she did. She was handed all her weapons and the largest Culas’s sword. She fastened them all, and stared at him, wondering what’s going to happen next. To be continued in story seven: An Old Friend Returns.

3. Is hip-hop music influential or not an influence at all? Some people think music is just music, but the question is do you think hip-hop music is good or bad? Most hip-hop music is okay, but when it says bad words, kids think it is okay to do the same. Have you ever seen a little kid cuss in public? We have! It is not very pleasant to hear. We can name some songs too. Here are some examples: Low, Yeah, un this town, etc. Not all of the songs have cuss words, but if you listen to the songs they are not something a kid under 16 should be listening to. Is that how we want people in this world to end up? Cussing and saying bad things? Although some songs aren’t like that we should still be aware of what we are listening to. Hip-hop…Good or Bad???
