The Giver Monologue
I heard music coming from somewhere I didn’t know where or anything. I couldn’t hear it, but I felt that it was close, maybe even very close. All I knew was that I was extremely hungry and I couldn't wait to be able to eat. Gabe and I were now on the sled and I was already imaging everything like mashed potatoes and gravy, chicken, and even steak. We were finally downhill and we were starting to see things other than just green trees. We were in an exotic place this was well advanced beyond our own community. Now for the first time, I heard Gabriel speak for the first time “WOW!,” he exclaimed, “This place is just astonishing. Can we please settle here?”
“It is a necessity to,” I said, “We can’t go back to our former community. We chose to leave and now we can’t change our minds,” I sobbed a little at the end. I would miss my family, the Giver, and everyone else. I knew I was doing this for a

It was either that or being lonely all of my life until I could find a soul mate.
Gabe and I eventually found a lovely couple that couldn’t have kids who very deeply wanted kids of their own. In result they adopted us, and for the first time ever I felt love. It wasn’t romantic, but it was family love. I found people who cared about me and my new brother Gabe. Soon my new parents would be enrolling me in a school so that I could finish my education.
When I got to school the first thing I did was crush on another girl her name was Selena. She had brunette hair, blue eyes, and was very skinny. You can say that I was head over heels for her. When I told my mom what I was feeling she advised that I should get to know her. The next day when I got to recess I asked her questions and made her laugh. She said that she loved my humor and gave me her number. “Score!” I exclaimed. I was so hyped up I could blow up a hot air

    Simon Krell Monologue

    Blood is a fascinating hue. It’s sometimes crimson, scarlet, ruby red, or even bold red. Crimson is the stain that’s painted on my fingers, since I just accomplished a mission-to murder Simon Krell, who continued torturing his family members on a daily basis. Although he continued being a dangerous man, it was so simple to kill him that it occurred to be laughable, all the acting skills I needed was to pretend to act alike his maid and suddenly shoot the filthy person. As I laughed, my storm eyes gazed at the glowing sky that had waves of gleaming dots on it. A silver ellipse remained framed in the inky sky, supported with millions of winking balls of fire.…

    When I was younger I had a very vibrant dream in the back of my mind. My family has never been the rich family, and I have never gotten everything I wanted. I had this dream, that I would be the one to save my family from poverty. I’d get famous, have tons of money, and bring my family to live in my mansion. Most of my time was spent thinking about that single dream that I had for years.…

    The bitter night Avah was killed the whole town was out celebrating. The Spring Festival was an annual affair and only the most isolated of persons would have not been there. It was a festival meticulously planned out by those intrigued in such matters and each detail was carried out to exact perfection. The Humphrey family would perform a skit each year at exactly six-thirty, the mayor would grace the audience with a well-planned speech at six-forty-five. At seven o’clock the potluck dessert would be brought out by the women and then once a half hour had passed, enough time for the people to converse with each other, the festival games would begin.…

Indeed, I am not Mother. But, I am here to inform you about the different world above us, The Outside. It is a place where people can feel independent. It is said that many decades earlier, the Outside became too polluted for a whole population to live in, so with no other choice, seventy-five percent of the population moved into The Colony, where they would have to live under Mother.…

    Interior Monologue

    I’m hopeless. I’m completely and utterly hopeless. I have nothing to look forward to at a school. At least on the farm I had friends and a family. I had a life… largely consisting of stealing from tourists that visit the vineyard. I need to find a way to turn this car around. That’s it! I’ll tell dad that I don’t want to go. He’ll respect my decision. But if he gets mad… shoot, last time he pulled out the belt. No, I better think of a slightly less painful idea. I can make up an excuse – No, that wouldn’t work. If only I wasn’t such a bad liar. In hindsight, if I were a better liar, I would have prevented many bad run-ins with the cops, and the worst run-ins that were near fatal, courtesy of dad. Yeah, he knows me in and out, too, so I can’t trick him. That would be suicide. I could call my friends… if I had a phone. Now I’ll never get to explain to them how I ended up in this mess. They’ll just remember me as the kid who became a goody two-shoes. They’ll never know that I won the contest for acceptance into a private school only because my Grandma wrote the application appeal. My family just doesn’t care that I don’t want to go to school. Why are they not giving me a fair say in the course of my life? They don’t know how good I am at sneaking and stealing. They don’t know how much money I could make if my friends and I took it to the next level. They just don’t understand what I’m trying to say because I’m not good with words. Maybe this school can help me, though. Maybe if I go sit in just the English and Literature class, I can fix this problem of mine. I’m already in the car, why stop now? Shoot, this car is a ’98 Corolla and is used for transporting a family of eight. Maybe this family needs a high school graduate. Maybe they’re actually depending on me. Man, if I just try a little to be a good student, I can make some honest money. Maybe my grandma just wanted to see someone become great. I have to this. I’ll have the best of both worlds…

    Hey! Johnny a lot has happened ever since you left. In case you forgot we won the RUMBLE!I want to say a lot of things that I’ve been keeping to myself for a long time. First, right after you died nothing has been the same without you, man. Second, we went in front of the judge, while we were there Soda thought he was gonna get put in the electric chair. Cherry was crying, because what happened before you guys got jump and after you got jumped. Man I guess she really did like you. Also, this might hit you hard man, but Dally died. I know you were probably expecting this, but I just felt like you need to know, because you were apart of the gang. Sniffles*. I just really miss you man dally wouldn’t have…
