“Yellow Fever”
ReplyDeleteIn London England there was an outbreak of yellow fever. It was quiet horrid. People were dying hundreds a day. There was no known cure for the disease.
One of the people that lived there was a boy named Tony. Life was not easy for him. Every day he had to take care of his parents. They would constantly cough up blood and they were too weak to get out of bed. Tony would have to cook, dress, and bathe his parents. This went on for two years.
Eventually, Tony got sick of doing this. He read in the newspaper that someone had found a cure for yellow fever. The cure was to eat chocolate. Unfortunately, there wasn’t any chocolate in the whole country of England. Tony knew what he had to do. He mustered up boldness and for the love of us his parents, he decided he was going to find chocolate.
Tony told his parents that he was going to find chocolate, but they insisted he stay with them. “No”, he said, “if I stay here, I’ll die.” He reasoned that either way he would probably die, but at least he would die trying to save his parents. His parents finally gave in.
Before Tony set out on his trip, he packed his backpack with a few clothes and a toothbrush and toothpaste. He also took along a map of Europe. There were some rumors that chocolate had been found in Germany. So, he planned the route he would take to get to Germany.
Tony bought a horse and set out in search of chocolate. The roads were rough and muddy. It was a dangerous trip, which was to be expected. There were a lot of dead bodies along the road. Tony could see the vultures eating up the dead people. The smell was atrocious. It smelled like dead bodies.
Some time later before he got to the border, Tony had to “ease nature”. It really didn’t matter where he went to go to the bathroom because there weren’t any people there, except the dead people of course! Tony saw a bush and decided to go there. On his way he tripped on a rock and fell down a hill. His face was scratched up. He could feel the blood oozing down his face. He had a big black and blue mark on his cheek. Tony’s lips were purple. He managed to get up and go to the bathroom and then get back up on the horse.
At last, Tony made it to Germany after two months. His skin was darker from the dirt roads and he smelled awful since he hadn’t showered in two months. In Germany, the yellow fever wasn’t as bad as it was in England. Tony came to a town. There he saw a store that said FREE Hershey’s Candies on the sign. Tony decided to check it out.
There, in the store, was chocolate. Tony was so happy! There were tons of people in the there, fighting over the chocolate. Tony managed to reach out to get a piece of chocolate. Just then, someone shot Tony. He lied on the floor with a piece of chocolate in his hand- dead. Tony died that day, on September 14, 2009 as a martyr.
High on a cliff there lived a young woman named Addison. Both of Addison’s parents had died at a young age. Addison herself was only sixteen when it happened. Her mother was shot driving down the street by drunk driver. Her father was the drunk driver, who committed suicide minutes after he had shot her mother. Addison was hated by everyone in her town because she herself had been accused of killing someone the night her parents died. But noone had any proof, so until proven guilty, she was innocent.
ReplyDeleteShe lived in a dark, old house way outside town, where she could be alone. The ocean was always beating on the jagged rocks off the side of the cliff. The grass and the trees were always dead.
One day Addison was sitting in her living room as it started to downpour outside. She watched the raindrops slide down the window. Just then a huge gust of wind shook the house and the front door blew open. At the door stood a tall, pale, black haired woman. She had blood shot eyes. She wore a long cloak-like black dress. She walked into the house slamming the door behind her. She walked into the living room and looked straight into Addison’s eyes and said, “Get up.”
The woman dragged Addison down to the basement, to where an old wooden chair sat alone in the middle of the floor. The woman commanded Addison to sit down. Addison quickly sat down not saying a word. The woman quickly tied Addison up on the chair. The woman was strong, no matter how much Addison tried to resist it she couldn’t break free of the rope or the woman’s grasp.
“Why did you kill my son?” The woman said forcefully. “What’s wrong with you? Why would you kill a sixteen year old boy?”
“You have no proof.”
“A dead child isn’t enough proof for you?” The woman reached for her pocket which held a knife. The woman held the knife to Addison throat. “Start explaining.”
“I didn’t just kill your son. I killed a girl too. After my parent’s death I was so angry, so devastated I lost control and killed the girl. Your son was a witness of it all. I didn’t want to get caught. So I shot him too.”
The woman pulled the knife back hard, through Addison’s throat. The blood gushed everywhere. Running down to the ground creating pools of blood everywhere. The woman untied Addison, shoved her to the ground, put the knife in Addison’s hand, picked up the rope and left the house.
The woman walked over to the edge of the cliff, intending to throw the rope into the raging ocean when she stepped a little to close to the edge, the thin ground collapsed from under her and she fell straight down onto the jagged rocks, which pierced through the woman. The woman let out one painful scream and died seconds later.
It was the night of Halloween, 2040 when it all went down. It was a full moon so the zombies and werewolf’s would be out, they’re bloodthirsty an anxious to attack all of the trick-or-treaters. When the clock struck 12am on Halloween the werewolf’s and zombies woke up from their graves and came out of their caves deep in the dark forest. As the sunlight started to fade to darkness the kids and teenagers set out for a fun filled night with candy and scary costumes, but they didn’t know about the danger that was ahead. Jeremiah was so excited for this Halloween because he didn’t have to walk around with his parents. He was dressed as Perry the platypus from Phineas and Ferb. The longer and longer the night went on the closer the zombies and werewolf’s got to the little town in the middle of no-where. It was about 11 o’clock when they finally reached the edge of the gloomy forest. Once they saw the first group of people, throwing eggs at houses and being mischievous they went crazy and were out of control. A few minutes later a Jeremiah walked up to a grim and bloody crime scene. Scared out of his mind he ran away for help. As the clock winded down to almost 12 midnight more and more kids were dropping dead mysteriously, no one thought that werewolf’s and zombies existed because they didn’t believe Jeremiah’s story. So they thought there was just a crazy serial killer on the loose. When it was finally the next day and the sun was out everyone in town could see the horrific bloody streets and all the cops were there to take away the dead bodies. Then all of a sudden the werewolf’s and zombies came out of hiding and killed everyone and ate their brains. When they finally left only a few people made it out alive, Jeremiah was one of them, he told everyone “I told you so” but it was too late.
ReplyDeleteIt was a dark night in the town of Dead Horse when a mysterious man came stalking through the town’s horse-racing community. The horse that was the most famous was a horse named William the Great. He had won the Kentucky Derby in three consecutive years. He was the greatest race horse in the last century. He is seven year old Arabian stallion and a descendant of the famous race horse Seabiscuit. His owner was a rich elderly lady that had raised many victorious race horses in the past. Her name was Elizabeth Long. She lived with her husband John in a very grand old mansion.
ReplyDeleteThe town had a population of approximately four thousand people. The Long’s owned a logging business that was called Horse Race. The logging business’ main rival was a man named Jim West who owned Millionaire Logging. He was jealous of the race horses that they had owned over the years. Jim was a friend of a just released convicted felon that was upset with the Long’s. His friend was Harry Smith and he was up to no good and looking for mischief.
Harry was walking around the horse barn where William the Great was being groomed. When Harry attacked the groomer and tied him up in the corner. He took William the Great and put him in a horse trailer. He took the trailer to his friend Jim West where Jim paid him three thousand dollars to not say anything about them stealing the horse. Jim was going to take William the Great to a horse race that was the next week under the name of Fast Jack.
When the Long’s discovered that the groomer never called to say William the Great was done being groomed. The Long’s decided to go see if something went wrong. When they got to the horse barn all the lights were off, they thought that it was suspicious. The Long’s went in and found that the groomer had been tied up. They let him go then they asked were William the Great was he said that Harry Smith stole him. So the Long’s called the police and said that their race horse had been stolen.
The police arrived they told them the story about how William the Great was stolen. The police went to Harry Smith’s house and he was home and they asked him about stealing the horse. He told them that he took the horse to Jim West. They went to West's house and found the horse trailer that they had used to transport William the Great. When Jim heard the police he stabbed William the Great with an old rusty knife. The police found him and arrested him for stealing the horse and for animal abuse.
The Long’s called their veterinarian as fast as they could. He arrived and put a dressing on the Great’s leg and said that he still would be able to race in the Kentucky Derby in seven months. Jim West was sentenced to one year in jail without bail. William the Great did just as well as he did before his leg was injured. He won the Kentucky Derby for the fourth consecutive year. The Long’s became the most winning family in the Kentucky Derby history.

"Crimson Rose"
ReplyDeleteIt was raining that night. I remember it pouring. But I still chose to walk home, it was only a mile or so away. I had left my friends after the party, ready for my warm bed. The woods were more eerie then usual. They were dark and dense, the ground black as the night that surrounded it. My feet and hair were soaked in minutes, but I didn't turn back to ask for a ride. This was my mistake, and I had to take its consequence. I walked slow, though. I enjoyed the darkness, and being alone in the woods. It was the only place I felt at peace with myself. Just me, myself and I.
All of a sudden, the rain stopped. It just...stopped. Has if someone had flipped a switch. I stopped, staring up at the sky, dotted with stars, all of them staring back at me, as if trying to answer me.
*CRACK*
That wasn't me, I thought. I had stopped walking, that couldn't have been me at all. Someone else must have been in my woods! I froze, standing like a statue, frozen in time. I heard the soft crunch of footsteps on the dead leaves. Whatever it is, it’s getting closer, I thought. Then...it stopped. Just like the rain, as if someone had flipped that same switch. I didn't want to turn around, afraid of what I might see. But curiosity forced me to turn, ever so slowly, as if going slow might make nothing be there.
He stood there in the moonlight, just standing there, looking back at me. He had short, black hair,and his skin was the palest white I hade ever seen. It glowed in the dark, like a night blooming cactus, beautiful and white. His eyes where a piercing bright green, seeming to look into my soul.
We stayed where we were, neither one of us moving a inch, just staring at each other. I think he made the first move, after a few minutes of doing nothing. He slowly walked forward, and that was when I noticed that in his hand, he was gripping something. I felt a spark of fear in my heart, and I went to turn back around, to run for my life. He reached out the hand that held this suspicious object, and I saw that it was a flower. I looked down at it, then brought my eyes up to his. He raised an eyebrow, and smirked, daring me to take it. I raised my hand, and gently, I took it out of his hand. Our skin brushed, and I gasped. His skin was cold, but so was I. It was a pretty chilly night. He smiled, and I said, “Thank you. But who are you? And what is this for?”
“ This flower is for you, of course. You should keep it. If you don't, you may begin to regret it.
“ But why? Why would I regret not keeping a silly old flower? And who are you?”
“ You do not need to know my name. Yet. And I highly advise you to keep that flower, if you want to live!”
And saying just that, he turned sharply, and ran away. He looked back once, and his eyes glittered, with insanity or something I did not know.
I sighed, and realized that I was still holding the flower. I looked more closely, and found out that it was a rose. A deep, red, crimson rose. It’s center had a black spot, and it smelled intoxicating. I brought the petals to my nose, and inhaled it’s scent. That was a queer boy, and why did he bring me this flower, why did he run from me, I thought to myself.
I walked the rest of the way home, smelling my flower. I put it into a vase by the side of my bed ,where I could smell it at night.
- I watched her at night. She didn't know it, but I did. She didn't know why I had ran from her,she asked me a couple of times, that same question. It was her life, and how alive she was, I couldn't take just standing there by her, I had to run from her, to get from it.She slept soundlessly, without a care in the world. But she wouldn't, soon enough. She would get more tired as the days went by, and she might think she’s just getting sick, but it’s much more. Oh yes, much more then that. Soon, her liveliness wouldn't bother me any more. -
(Part 2 of "Crimson Rose")
ReplyDeleteTwo weeks after that strange and weird meeting in the woods, I started to feel more tired then usual. I could barely get myself out of bed, and right after school, I would go to sleep and not wake until morning. Strangely enough, my flower was still alive.It had just started to wilt a couple of days ago, its crimson turning to a dark death black, right on the tips of the petals.
The next morning though, I woke up with a sharp pain in my stomach. It was as if someone was stabbing me with a knife, it hurt so bad. I raced to the bathroom, and puked up a stomach full of blood. The toilet and my face, all the of floor around where the toilet sat, where I had missed, was covered in a deep, sticky red liquid, my own blood was all over me. I gasped, and fell to my knees, suddenly scared for my life. But I got up, cleaned it all up, threw the once white, now red, rag into the garbage, and got dressed and ready for school. The rest of the day, I felt fine, and didn't think of what had happened again until that night.
I saw him again. He was watching me, as I walked back home.i wanted to ask him who he was again, but before I could get near to him,he turned on is heel and ran again, far away from me. Right when he disappeared off the horizon, I clutched my stomach again, the pain even more fierce then this morning. I limped the rest of the way home, trying to hold it all in until I got to my bathroom, but I ended up running the last few feet inside, rushing to the toilet, spewing blood from my mouth. I crawled to my bed, and layed down for the next week. No one came to check up on me, no one rang the doorbell, asking for me. I slept most of that time away, in and out of consciousness.
At first, I though I as hallucinating him, or dreaming of him. But when he walked from the doorway to the side of my bed, and held my hand, I knew he was real. “I’ve been waiting for you, my dear.”
“But--why”, I rasped.
“My dear, you are in no condition to talk, but I have been waiting for you, for so long,” he replied, not answering anything I asked. I blinked, my room appeared to have grown dim in only a few seconds, as if death had walked in and stole the light. He looked at me, and his eyes glittered, he held my hand even tighter. “Do you know what my name is? No? I shall tell you then. It is Mortimer. Do you know what it means? No again? Well, my dear, it means “death”. I know your name.It’s Kerra. I also know what it means. It means “life”. But soon, my darling, you will no longer have life. You will be with me in death, together and always.”
I only looked at him, a dark shadow in my room. In the corner of my eye, I saw my rose, the one he had given to me so many weeks ago. I noticed that it was all black, and the petals were crumpled around its vase. That was when I drew my last breath, no longer living, entering the blackness of death. Mortimer held my hand the whole way, saying to me, “Don’t be afraid my love, I will be here always. And now, you will be with me the rest of your life.Well, in death, I suppose,” He chuckled.
It's about 6:30. Eight hours past the time I almost saved my friends life. I work at a factory and it's usually quite, dark. Until today, the day I saw my friend die and will remember it forever, it was a horrible sight and now I will see his face, as purple as it coudld be, lying there, in the middle of the floor with nothing I can do about it. His name was Dave. We hired him yesturday and we were nice friends just talking about ramdon things and laughing at corny jokes. Thats what friends should be right? Well that's my opinion.
ReplyDeleteSome of us were outside. Taking our brake, smoking and talking 'bout life. I hear a thump. Like something falling. I hear a scream. It's Mary. She's screaming for me! "Hurry, he collapsed! Help!" I run inside not knowing what is going on. I see him. On the floor, not knowing what to do. I start asking Mary what happend. She says that he had a heart attack. It's been a while since school but i try to remember what I learned about CPR. I remember, suddenly I get down on my knees and give him CPR. Its dark and quite and people are afraid he is not going to make it. And me, the one who is usually the calmest is balling. Trying to save my dear friends life. Mary is crying and so are the rest of the people working. The ambulance pulls up and comes inside. They take him out but he's not breathing. I was so scared he would not make it. After they leave, it's dark. No one is talking. No one wants to. Everyone has the same thought in their head, and their all thinking about Dave. We called his wife and told her the bad news. She was horrified and started hysterically crying. We felt so bad.
And now it's 6:30. The image of Dave is still in my head. I can't get rid of it. All I here is the last gasps he took of his life, Mary screaming, an me rushing to help. It's a crazy thing to have stuck in your head. I took half the day off and came home at lunch. I needed to relax and think about things for a little while. I talked to some people and they said that after they got him to the hostpital they got his heart beat back but he wasn't doing so good. I just hope to god that tomorrow at work I find out that somehow I just helped save my friends life.
THE END.
Kylie, I love how you wrote about wherewolves and Zombies! and Holloween since it's only a week away! GREAT STORY! P.S. great gothic liturature!

ReplyDelete"Jonny"
ReplyDeleteJulie and Tom were brother and sister. They were both 15 and their parents were gone for the weekend. They invited a few friends over for a little get together. One of their friends was helping their grandma and found an Ouija board and brought it over.
Everyone agreed ghosts are real except a boy named Jonny. Jonny was a red head with a ton of freckles and was on the shorter side. Everyone gathered around the dinning room table, laid out the Ouija board and began. Tom and his friend Blake made up a plan to scared Jonny. Blake crawled under the table and tom stood by the lights. Blake had a magnet that he used to move the block on the board. He made it spell out “Why not Jonny?” and then the lights started flickering and the table was shaking. Everyone yelped but Jonny’s scream was the loudest. When Tom started laughing everyone else followed. Then everyone saw that Jonny had peed in his pants. He started to cry and ran to the bathroom.
After everyone had calmed down a loud noise came from the ceiling. Then the lights went off and on. Julie told Tom to cut it out but he said it wasn’t him this time. The glass chandelier dropped and shattered everywhere. There were piercing screams and they all ran to the living room. The lights went out and one by one the kids fell to the ground. When the lights came back on Julie was the last one standing. Tom had been possessed and killed everyone with the wooded ornament. She saw his face, screamed and a huge boom and it was silent. Jonny ran out of the bathroom and saw all the dead bodies on the floor so he ran through to living room to the dinning room. He could see the door, just a couple more steps. Then he fell in his own pee, but he got up and just kept running.
Jonny made it out alive. When the parents came home they found a house full of dead teens the next day later. They had a burial for every body. The only problem was that Tom’s body was never found. The question is if Toms dead or alive.
Once upon a time in France, there lived a sixteen year old girl named Amy. Amy loved walk though Paris looking in the store windows just window shopping because she didn’t have enough money to buy the beautifully designed clothes in the stores.
ReplyDeleteOne day she was just walking on the streets looking at the clothes she longed to wear when she meet a very handsome looking man.
“Good afternoon.” He said with a smile on his face.
“Good afternoon to you, too.” She had back very quickly.
“Why are you out here looking though the windows of the store, don’t you have money to go and buy what you would like?” He said curiously back.
“No I don’t have enough money to go and buy the things that I want in the stores.”
“Come with me, you can buy anything you would like and I will pay for it.”
Amy was stunned she never excepted to have anyone tell her that and she figured it was to good to be true. So in reply she said, “ I couldn't let you do that, don’t you need that money to buy food and clothing for yourself?”
“I know what your thinking, why would i just go up to a beautiful young women like yourself and offer to buy her anything in the store that she wanted. But I don’t need the money for clothes or for food.”
“Are you shore that you don’t need the money for yourself or your family?”
“I don’t have a family of my own.” He said back sounding quite upset.
“I’m sorry to hear that.”
“So you let me buy you something from the store?”
Amy realize that the man that she just met was not going to take no for an answer.
“My name is Amy. It’s very nice to meet you.”
“My name is Edward. And the pleasure to meet you as well.”
As they walked though the door to the store Amy suddenly was shock by how much stuff she missed when she only looked though the window of the stores.
“Do you see anything that you would like?” Edward said and then realized that Amy was no longer at his side. He looked to his right and there she was looking at the summer sun dresses. He walked over to her she was marveling at a beautiful strapless dress. Edward stood on his tip toes and grabbed the hanger of the dress and handed it to Amy.
“I love this dress it’s so beautiful!” she sounded like a little girl who just got everything that she wanted for Christmas.
“And it’s your color.” He said as he looked at the beautiful aqua color against her skin color.
"Awe thank you so much." She says to him with a smile so wide it almost fell off her face.
As they walked to the checkout he spotted a bright blue scarf.
"You know that this would be beautiful if you pair you dress with this.” Edward said picking up the scarf.
“Your so right it’s beautiful.” She said looking at the scarf. As they approached the checkout counter Edward started to walk faster.
“Can you scan this and than she can go put it on in the dressing room?” He said politely to the cashier.
“Sure.” she said as she scanned the dress. “And here is a bag for your clothes.” The cashier handed the dress, the scarf, and the bag to Amy.
Amy started to walk towards the dressing room. She walked into the room in took off her jeans and t-shirt and gracefully slipped on the sun dress. She looked in the mirror as she put the scarf on she looked absolutely stunning. Her should length blond hair was beautifully flowing. She pulled her hair back to reveal her mother’s earring the she had been given when her mother passed away. She walked out of the door to the dressing room. There she saw her friend, Jenna.
Part 2-
ReplyDelete“Hey Amy where did you get the money for that sun dress it looks amazing on you.”
“I meet this guy on the street. His name is Edward and he afford to buy my something from the store.”
“Didn’t your mother tell you never to talk to strangers?”
“Yes she did, but he seemed so nice.”
“Well I don’t like him.” Jenna said back to Amy as though a warning.
“I have to go thank him. Bye, Jenna” Amy said turning to walk away towards Edward. Little did she know that Jenna was going to be one of the last people that she ever talked to.
“Thank you so much for the dress and scarf how can I ever repay you.” she said as she out the front door of the store.
Edward didn’t say anything back to her. As they walked down the street she neared her doom. He walked towards his car. As he did he looked over his shoulder, he opened the back door of his car and grabbed something. He turned around and looked at Amy. She thought she was staring at another person. He was holding a seven-inch bladed knife in a death grip. Then he lunged toward her.
“What are you doing?” she said shocked and trembling in fear.
“What do you think I’m doing?” He said back so only she could hear him.
As Amy turned to run away Edward stabbed her in the back. She screamed out in pain and she had the feeling that she couldn't catch her breath. And within seconds she was dead. Edward turned to his car not feeling anything at all. As he was drive around a bend on the edge of a mountain his car being to swerve uncontrollably.
- The next day-
A car was found off the side of a cliff , the driver’s body was found with his throat slit and dangling from a tree. Inside the car there was a bloody knife that was connected to the murder of Amy Church and several other murders inside of the city of Paris. Amy was dressed like all the other bodies, in a blue strapless dress with a blue scarf. The City of Paris can now sleep in peace that the serial killer is dead.
Jenna read this with a smirk on her face “Or is the killer dead.”
It was a dark and rainy evening and the wind was howling as it moved through the trees. Mr. Farefact was walking home after a long day at work. His job was a lawyer. It was on a Friday night when he stopped in to get a cup of coffee at work. He heard the shreak as he walked out coffee shop. Little voices were whispering in his ear, but it was a far away voice. He suddenly remember that a person had lost his case at work today and was so angry. He started to run down the street to get to his house. The voices made him stop. He screamed “WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!!!” No one replied. He was frightened, so he started to walk home quicker than be before. Moments later he heard the voice again. He was so frightened and scared he past out and dropped his case full of files down on the ground.
ReplyDeleteAfter being unconcious for a half and hour he woke up and had noticed his files were gone. He started to panic. So he ran as fast as he could to his house. As he entered his house he ran to the phone to call 911. As he picked up the phone he heard little voices again. He couldn’t take it any more. He ran to his room and stayed there as long as he could! He was so scared. Moments later he heard foot steps coming up to his room. He then yelled again “WHO”S THERE, AND WHAT DO YOU WANT!!” No one replied. Just before he could get up and open the door, someone came into his room. It was the guy from the court order during the day. The guy stood there and stared at him. Mr. Farefact said please don’t as the guy held a gun to his face. Just before Mr. Farefact could beg once more he was shot 5 times, and he was dead with in moments. The guy ran out of his house and was never found.

Ally screamed out that was the only one she loved and ever got loved back by. Even though he wouldn’t talk she knew he loved her. The next day Ally wouldn’t say a word so the teacher made her sit in the corner right in the very place Henry died. Then the room started to shake the lights went out. The teacher started yelling earthquake get out. All of a sudden the door slammed shut and everyone except little Ally dropped dead. Ally stayed in that corner the rest of her life staring at the ghost of the little boy in blue.
“The Text”
ReplyDeleteA town in the middle of no where, had a population of 1500 people in it. All of the people in the town got a text at the same time. The text said, “Leave the town or die, you have two days to get out of your homes and leave.”
The next day came and no one had left the town. All the people got another text and it said, “Last chance to leave town.” The next day about 700 people were sick with a disease that made their leg turn blue. They were barley able to breathe and felt like they were getting stabbed in the gut with a knife. Within one hour of being sick their heads would explode. All of the people that were still alive got a text message that said, “This is the beginning of what’s to come.”
The next day a man walked into town, he wore a black robe and you could not see his face. He walked to the center of town and the people asked him why he was here. The man said nothing, but you are all going to die and then he vanished. Then the town people tried to leave town but there was a thick fog surrounding the town. When they walked into the fog they would always end where they started.
The next day the town people got a text message and it said you will die today. The town all heard a scream and when they went to the place where it came from, there was a body chopped up into little pieces on the ground. The town’s people heard a loud laughter coming from every direction. The town’s people ran and the first hundred people turned to ash. The only thing left were their bones. Half of the town’s people still remaining barricaded themselves into a building. The man in the black robe was standing in the middle of the road holding a scythe, surrounded by dead bodies with no heads, and then vanished.
In the morning the town’s people woke up to the smell of smoke. One of the town’s people looked out the window and saw all of the homes were on fire. The town’s people panicked. Only five of the people made it out. The man in the black robe removed the robe. He was a skeleton and he snapped his fingers and everyone was dead.
It was a dark Halloween night, when two kids Amy & Tony were walking home from school. They were best friends and did everything together. As they were walking home from school, a mysterious person was following them. The two kids were wondering if this guy knew them, and that’s why he had been following them all over. So Amy and Tony both walk up to him and introduced themselves. His name was Franklin. Franklin was wearing all dark clothes, ripped jeans and a blue hat. Franklin seemed like a nice guy. He said he wasn’t following them, he was just walking home. Amy and Tony said “okay that’s fine” and went home. About a week later, Franklin was on the news for murder. When Amy and Tony saw this, they didn’t know what to do because they had juts talked to him a week ago and he seemed fine. They kept this to themselves and didn’t tell anyone that they knew who he was. Everyone was talking about it in school, and Amy and Tony didn’t speak of anything. A few weeks later, Amy and Tony saw Franklin Again! They were walking home from school once again, and he was behind them. They took a shortcut to see if Franklin would still walk the same way. He did. At this point the two kids knew that Franklin was following them. They were getting very scared and didn’t know what to do. So they both ran home and finally got away from Franklin. They then found out that the person Franklin murdered was Toney’s neighbor. A few days later Amy and Tony decided to stalk Franklin and see what he really is. So they did, and he is really a cereal killer and stalker. Amy and Tony went to the police and Franklin was caught and was out in jail for good.

Two men went hunting in the back woods of Marsh Pond. They were hunting the grizzly bear of the century. He stood seven foot five inches, weighed 455 pounds, and has big brown bulging eyes with teeth like a shark.
Four guys went hunting for this Grizzly bear a month ago and only two guys came back. One had had a broken arm; the other had a concussion and bruised ribs. They say that the bear is as big as a tractor trailer. The guy with the broken arm had a good look at his two friends getting carried away by the Grizzly bear. The men were both dead with blood all over their faces and their limbs were all gone. They had teeth marks on their noses and eyeballs. Their noses were nibbled on. They had scratches all over their body. The bear looked happy and tired after his meal, the two men. The man with the broken arm had tried to save his partner but the bear stepped on him and broke it. The guy with the concussion tried to save the guy with the broken arm but the bear swatted him into a tree and he got a concussion.
The two men were headed back to where they heard the other two men were taken by the bear. There were trees on the ground; there were big Grizzly bear tracks everywhere, bear droppings, and human blood. The two men were very afraid of what was around the corner. They put more ammo in their gun just in case they saw the bear they could shoot many times. They were not talking anymore. They were paying attention and were alert.
They walked around the corner and the Grizzly was on two feet ready to fight! He was huffing, puffing, and growling. He looked at the two men as if they were his next dinner. The one man put up his gun, fired and hit the bear in the chest! The bear stumbled around for a minute and fell. But wait! He got back up! It was getting awfully dark at this time and you couldn’t see the bear. One man had a flashlight, shined it to his right because he heard a branch breaking. He saw the bear! The other guy fired off a round and the bear dropped like a big lump. And the bear never moved again.
This begins in an old house in the middle of the woods. There was a lot of animals surrounding the house. Then one day they were gone a long with the owner of the house Edward. In most stories people would say that Edward was eaten because he stopped feeding them food and then ran away. But in this story it is a little bit different.
ReplyDeleteNear this house in the woods was a old testing ground for nuclear explosions. This had been known to cause schizophrenia. He just vanished. His old wife had vanished and the last person who lived there. children tried going there but were scared too fast and they ended up dissapearing.
Then one day the police went there with protective suits on just incase. They went insane and were brought to an insane asylum, the scientists said that they had gotten lucky. But then one day Edward and the animals came back, but something was different. Every animal and Edwards face was deformed.
Edward had said that “they” did it. No one knew what he was talking about and he was brought to a bunker were they did testing and he had every cancer known to man. He grew third arm and then got so strong from nucleic acid he decided to escape and he ended killing everyone in his way too move back too his house. Then the next day he was found wandering the woods missing all three arms and passed out on the ground. No one heard from the person who found him.
Now those woods are gone. The house is gone. And no one is aloud on the old sites of the woods and if they go on they aren't aloud back outside of those woods. No one goes in and no one goes out. All because of Edward who is legend to still walking the site looking for his disappeared wife.
