A few things to add on. The Space between 'Whisper' and the comma should not be there. It should look like 'Pinchcappa said to Pinchentstein, in a whisper," Ok, I'll tell her."

I feel that saying 'She went to Annie and told her to access Pinchasuma's finances.' is not Descriptive enough for a reader. Remember that your reader wants to be able to imagine what you are describing. Perhaps something like:

Pinchcappa shuffled her feet nervously, her pinchers in the air as she made her way to Annie to tell her to access Pinchasuma's Finances.

Please do not steal what I put down and copy and paste it onto your post. That is a sign of laziness.
I.e:'Annie felt the pressure and the panic of being pursued. She had sweat was streaming down her face from her forehead."How did they know I am out of my cell and in here? I found it what I was looking for." She made it look like Pinchwald was still in the room and using the computer.'

First off, Pinchwald is passed out on the toilet, after eating a drugged Pop tart. I think I see where you were going with your post. You meant to say: "Annie disguised her online presence to appear as if Pinchwald was still online." Your lack of lack of describing what you write down, ultimately confuses everyone who reads your posts. It took me several moments to put the pieces of the puzzle together, so to speak. But besides the point, Pinchwald never logged off the computer, Disguising her online presence would do nothing.

Again, you don't describe what you write effectively. Instead of saying 'She caught the pistol that Pinchenstein thrown to her,' you could say " She cuffed her hands together and caught the pistol that Pinchenstein tossed at her. A wicked smile appeared on Annie's face. It was a smile of pure excitement."


Again you mixed Past and Present Tense. You also messed up the structure of your sentence.

Instead of saying 'On the other hand Pinchcappa was worried that Annie will g et hurt or get killed You should say something like "Pinchcappa did not like the prospect of Annie fighting a heavily armored robot. She also did not want Annie to get hurt or killed."

Remember that past and present tense should never be mixed.

'Was' 'Worried' 'Killed' All indicate Past Tense, whereas 'Will' indicates Present Tense. Hence you created an oddity in your sentence

-'Annie will get hurt, or get killed'-

Technically there is nothing wrong with this sentence. But is still creates an oddity, from my perspective. When you combine conjunctions and/ or connecting words, you create what is called a "Polysyndeton"

'I don't think it's good idea for her to fight. I think she should hide because when they come in here they won't see her and think she went for more testing, then we can finish what we are doing when they leave. What do you think she should do Doctor Pinchstein?"

You should put a comma between 'hide,' and because, because there is a pause in the sentence that you COULD tease out. You should also place a comma between 'here," and 'they," and another set of commas between 'her' and 'and.'

" Now Annie felt very confuse at what to do because she wanted to fight but she was also scared made her body shake a little hungry and tired to from what she went threw."



There are a lot of things that you did wrong here: 1) Again, you mixed up Past and Present Tense, when you added the word 'confuse' to a past tense phrase. 'Felt,' 'wanted,' 'scared,' 'made.' All these words indicate Past tense. 'Confuse' breaks the pattern that these words all share. Use the word "confused.

2) You just made a continuous run-on sentence, there are sentence fragments here and there which, really, bewilder your readers, as they have no idea what you are talking about.

Here is how I would fix it:

"Annie was very confused. She did not know which action she should take. She was caught between the actions of fighting in order to take revenge, and hiding like a bloody coward from Pinchasuma's diabolically evil security mech of doom, destruction, and murder. Annie's whole body was shaking. Sweat streamed down her face from her forehead. She was terrified of finding herself in the situation where she would have to fight for her life, or hide. She heard her stomach growl, and she was beset with hunger pangs."


So just a few tips here:

1) know when to use past and present tense. An easy way to tell the difference is to look for the suffixes "ed" or "ing" at the end of the words. 'Ed' indicates, almost always, that your sentence is in past tense, whereas 'ing' indicates Present tense. If you spot "ing" anywhere in your sentence, then you should continue using "Ing" when appropriate. Same with "Ed."

2) Always know when to end your sentences. If you think there is a spot where you can place a period, or a comma, then do so. Making a run-on sentence just makes things hard to read.

3) Be aware that the opposite is true with sentence fragments. sentence fragments confuse readers. When, and if you spot one, then you should add more to the fragment so that it is not a fragment anymore.

4) Be aware of how you describe something. What you want to convey is not always what the reader is imagining. Sentence structure and word choice will do you well.
