The world as we know it ended 209 years ago. From a desert wasteland springs a single kingdom, ruled by a tyrannical King and trapped in an endless war against the shadowy desert warriors. As a desperate bid to save what remains of humanity, society has been split into two distinct classes, nicknamed the Court and the Commons. For an oppressed population on the brink of revolution, a common thief could be the last hope. Up until now, Kay has survived by her wits alone. Reckless and impulsive, wanted by the King's guard, Kay has become known as the Runner. Using the city's rooftops as her personal domain, she manages to keep one step ahead of the King with one hand buried in the purses of the courtiers. Driven by the plight of the commoners and the unjust death of her family, Kay seizes the chance to graduate from small-time thievery to full-scale rebellion. Her opportunity comes in the form of Will, a wealthy ex-soldier with a dark past. Plucked from the streets and thrown into the shimmering palace court, Kay must use her every strength to blend into a world where she doesn't belong, closer to the enemy than she ever thought she would be.

I dance ballet and that's all I do, all I love. The pain in the beauty you can make with your movement, sanding on your toes, and turning. I know as a turner that's what I'm best at. Any type of turn is good with me. When one day I was practicing variations after my class was over, when I come to favorite part Fuetes a type of turn when you use your leg to turn and bring your leg in and out. In center, my finishing move 1 , 2 , 3 4 I try to land but I keep turning 5,6,7 I stop whipping my head around to try to stop turning but I can't . Finally finishing slowly i fall. Like any dancer I get back up but something is not right. " Hello?" I try to leave the room but everything is swirling, swirling like a mad house. The room turns black, I scared of what's happening I close my eyes and I'm not in the blue studio any longer. Thank Leilani1712 for the great idea!!!

This is the best dictionary ever. Enjoy.
