Randel St.John
So we were walking by this old house that was supposly be haunted. Jessica questioned," Randel remember that story about this house?"
I responded, " Yes, it is told that the night before Halloween there will be a bright light come down and pick you up, but you will never be heard from again." Melea said," Randel you know that I hate that story!!"
So it was about 5 min. after I told the story we heard something in the bushes and it started to freak us out. Ashley scarsly questioned," What was that?" Then right when she said that out of the blue Cameron and Matt walked up. Cameron asked," Ya'll look like ya'll have just seen a ghost." He giggled. Kayla yelled," Not funny guys and ya'll konw that we scare easily."
So we to the ball game and we won the game. So we was walking home and we noticed that Hunter wasn't at the ball game. So we kept on walking for about a mile and then we heard this desienct nosie, then we saw this bright light go over our heads. Everyone just staired and I turned and yelled," What was that?" Melea responded, " The bright light remember from the story?" I mumbled," Ya'll there is one part I forgot to tell ya'll" Everyone asked," What?"
I said," When you see the bright light you will hear these noises and then your gone." Everyone looked scared. The about a mile up the road we started hearing runnning noises. Then Cameron sugessted, " Ya'll maybe we should walk faster." So we did then we heard whispers.
The nwe got really freaked. So then the bright light came again and it made this nosie that sound frimiar and then it crashed. So we walkedd over to see what it looked like and I Asked," Isn't that the space ship from Josh's last year halloween party?"
So then we said," Hunter come out, jokes over." So he did and began to start laughing so hard he was crying.
So that was the time I saw a bright light go threw the sky.
Lisa Puckett
The light appeared while we were putting the tent up. Since it was already dark we had our flashlights. The light was very bright ,and it was white like a flashlight."Hey Lisa, we should go
check it out!" Jesika exclaimed "Ok, let's go" I replied We started down the dark and narrow path.As we went along we could see something in the distance. I knew it couldn't be a porchlight.
"Stop!!"I whispered with caution
"Why?" Jesika questioned
"Because, I just saw the light,and we'll be on top of the light in another 10 steps!"I explained
We started walking again,and the light started moving again too. We followed it for about 15 or 20 minutes. Then it took a left,and stopped in it's tracks.We keep on walking

"Need a ride?" asked Jason one of my friends. I laughed and aswered, "No, I'm good, my house is only about five blocks away." "OK," he stuttered and got out. "I'll walk with you." He told his mom to go on home and we walked.
"I still can't believe your mom and dad are letting you stay by your self for three weeks!" Jason groned. "Two." I corrected him. "Whatever, three, two, you I would be lucky if my mom and dad let me stay by myself for two or three days!" Jason continued, "So......whens the party?" What party?" I laughed nervously. "Man, you cannot not have a party while your parents are gone, its like a teenager tradition!!" He explained. "OK," I stuttered. "This is what im trying to do..." "Aww man!!" Jason complained. "What?" I questioned. "Not the "this is what im trying to do" theory again! C'mon, face it, you are too predictable!" "What is that supposed to mean?" I asked. "If your not going to do it just say so!" Jason explained. "Ok, im not going to do it." I agreed. "But you have to! Do you know how much this will boost our popularity? WE'LL BE POPULAR FOR LIFE!!!" "Look im not going to disappoint my pa..." Jason cut in "Man, dont even finish that sentence! Look man i'll see you la...." He stopped. "Whats wrong with...." he busted in. "Shhh! What was that?" he whispered. "What was what?" I whispard back. "Shhhh!" he shushed me and lifted his finger. We heard a very loud popping noice in the near by woods.
We looked over, and standing there was the biggest man you would ever see.The worst thing about in was he had a knife."RUN!" Jason screamed.
We ran up the staris to my house, lucky for us Jason was the onlt knew we was close to my house. "Hurry he's coming!" screamed Jason. I took out my keys and aimed for the doors key hole. I missed. I hit the door with the key and the key sliped out of my hand and fell in a crack in the porch.
"Way to go clumsey!!" Jason insulted me. "Follow me, there's an extra key under the door mat to the back door." I explained.
We leaped over the rail and rushed to the back door. I ran up the first step and tripped on the second step. Jason picked me up and we continued to run up the steps. We got to the back door and the door matt was gone but the key was still laying there. I bent over to pick it up i rose up and aimed for the key hole. The key slid in and then a big thud rang my ears. I looked back and it was him rushing up the steps. I turned the key right. Wrong way. I turned it to the left and heard a click. I jerked open the door and ran in. Jason was right behind me. He slid the key out of the door and slammed the door behind him.
We both leaned on the door and gaspped for air."Who was..." I took a breath of air. "..that!" "Who?" Jason qustioned. "He was at leasts 7' foot." "SEVEN!" I yelled. "Dude my dad is seven, that...whatever it was, was 8' or 9' foot!" I paniced, "I've got to call mom." I made my way to the phone. Jason pulled me back, "What? Are you kidding like the would beleive that a 9' foot man with a knife was chaseing us in the middle of no where!" "What do you mean no where?" I qustioned. "Face it dude," he changed the subject. "There not going to beleve us. Lets just keep an eye's opened like a halk to make sure he dosent show again." Jason made his way to the phone. "What are you doing." I asked. "Dont worry im not calling my parents, im not going back outside tonight ether, im spendding the night." We both fell asleep around 2:00 in the morning.
I shot up out of bed by a loud bangging noise. I looked down, Jason was gone. This got me freaked out. I walked down the hall someone was bangging on the door. I walked up to the door and the door swung open.
BANG!!! I woke up. It was a dream. It was 4:13. I looked down no Jason! BANG!BANG!BANG! The door was shaking and rattleing. It swung open. "AHHH!" I screamed. "Hahaha!" A familure voice busted through the door. "JASON!" I yelled. "Its me, I droped my wallet when I was running after you." he explained. "Running after me?" I qustioned. "Yeah, you been sleep walking for three hours." he giggled. "At least I dont sound like a chipmunk when I laugh." I joked. "So we diddnt get chased by a 9' foot man?" I asked. "No. You were dreaming" Said Jason.
He turned around. Out of no where the Giant like 9' foot man popped out grabbed Jason and him nor the 9' foot man was ever seen again.
Ethan Sharp
In less than 5 minutes we were at the church. Kids were running around everywhere.We played many games [ many of wich I found childish ]. But some of them were kinda fun.
But the funnest thing was yet to come. Finnaly the bell rang for the hay ride. It took about 5 minutes to load the younger kids up. Finnaly we were on our way. The hay ride goes down a long and dreary road. We told ghost storries, wich I must say had me scared. Then I rememberd tha I knew a ghost story, so i began to tell it. I got about half way threw it when I was rudley interupted by a loud scream that shrilled SHUT UP ETHAN! I looked around it was a little kid, so I understood it must have frightend him so I hushed. But then the scariest thing on the hay ride was beggining to come into view. It was the old abbanded Peck house. The house is about ten miles from the church.
As the house gegan to take form we grew frightend. As we begin to pass it the truck begins to stop. Then the back lights went out. Then the driver gets out and states we are out of gas. We all panicked. Then after about a minute the driver informs we will have to spend the night in the house. We all shook our heads no. But we had to.
As we opend the door to the decreped house we heard a sqeeeeq. The house was very scary with spider webs and old furniture everywhere. The guys slept up stairs and the girls down. I shared a room with my best friend Tristen Wethers. Neither of us could sleep so we stayed up and talked. After what seemed an a century we decided to explore. So we got up put our shirts on and went down stairs.
Almost as soon as we got down stairs we heard a boom coming from up stairs. So we darted up the flight of stairs [ agian]. We got up stairs and found nothing. But then there was a noise coming from the closet. Tristen and I finnaly got up the nerve to open the closet. As soon as we opend it there standing before us was a ghostly figure holding a gun. He pulled the trigger sending a bullet gliding into the wall. The shot woke up everyone else. So we all flew out the door. we ran the whole ten miles back to the church.
Now every Halloween we make sure the truck has plenty of gas, and we most deffinitly never go back by that house. And I have to say that that is my most scarriest moment.
Jacob Charest
It started out as a normal morning."Beep,beep,beep!" I rolled over and turned off my clock. "Yes!" I told myself "it's Saturday!" I jumped up and put on my cloak. I remembered that I was going to the movies with Dalton and Maclain to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
I grabbed my wand and headed into the kitchen. "Want some breakfast, dear?" asked my mom.
"No thanks I replied. "I'll just grab a snack." so I grabbed a chocolate frog and some pumpkin juice and shoveled them down.
"Beep!" I ran outside to see what the noise was. Dalton and maclain were waiting in the driveway."C'mon!" yelled Dalton. "The movie starts in an hour!" Maclain added. I rushed outside and jumped in the huge SUV. The trip took about forty-five minutes. We were finally there. We all jumped out of the van and ran inside the theater.We watched the previews for what seemed like hours. Finally, the movie started.
After the movie, we decided to hang out in the arcade until dark. It was about seven o'clock when we left. "Well, lets go," Maclain said. We started to head for the SUV. "Wait!" I shouted.
"I left my wand in there!" "Go get it!" shouted Maclain."Hurry!" he added. I headed inside the theater.
"Where's my wand!?" I yelled. "looking for this Charest?" said a cold voice. I turned around.
There he was. Lord Voldemort, The Dark Lord. His voice was like a snake hissing. The very tone of his voice made me shiver.
"Give it here, Voldemort!" I shouted. "I'm going to murder you Jacob Charest!" "Or should I say,the boy who lived?"I tripped and fell on my back.
"Say goodnight, Charest!" "Expelliarmus!" Both mine and his wand flew out of His hand . I looked over. Dalton and maclain had their wands raised. "Thanks," I said. "No problem," Dalton replied.
I grabbed my wand and jumped up. Voldemort had his wand raised. "Crucio!" he shouted. "Sectumsempra!" I yelled. The blasts fused. I strained to push his back but it was to powerful. I jumped out of the way but the blast hit my leg. I cried out with pain. "Time to finish you off, Charest!"
"Expelliarmus!" I yelled. Voldemort was blasted back into the wall. "Let's escape!" Maclain yelled. We ran outside and jumped in the SUV. I looked back as we drove off into the night.

Chasity Graham
Two hours later I woke up got out of bed and I walked into the living room, but the strange thing was it wasn't my living room. "Oh my gosh where am I?" I blurted out in panic and disbelief. Just as I got my words out a weird hippie mellow voice told me that I had been kidnapped along with him, and the kidnapper was no where to be seen. For a minute there I didn't say a word I was to busy thinking about why they wanted to kidnap me. Scared and alone me and the mysterious young boy layed down and fell fast asleep.
Later when we woke up still dumbfounded the kidnapper was still no where to be found. "Why would someone want to kidnap me?" I cried out in sadness. The boy wrapped his arms around me comforting me that we would be okay. "POP BOOM CRASH!"went a noise close to us. "What was that?"I whispered. "I don't know"replied the young boy. Then as quick as I could get another word out a tall ghostly looking man jumped out from behind a chair with a chainsaw and was walking towards me. Slowly I looked around for the boy but he was no where to be found. I started to run but he had me blocked in. Then the ghostly looking man cranked his chainsaw up and went for my head. "AHHH!" I screamed as he almost got me, but then the young boy jumped out from behind the ghost like man and chopped his head off with an ax. I ran as fast as I could to the boy hugging him and thanking him for saving me.
Then my mom showed up happy to have found me and the boy, so she took the boy home and then she took me back home where I was safe and sound, and I told myself I would never fall back to sleep EVER again.

Before I know it we are at the plane up very high in the air. As soon as I got strapped in Kaitlyn trips ,but does not fall out of the plane she bumps into me and I fall as if I was a feather falling out of the sky. I was panicking ,but I knew if I didn't act quick there wouldn't be much left of me.
So I pull the cord and sure enough I landed safety on the ground. A little sore, but I almost managed to stand up. Before I knew it a shadow figure emerged over my head as if it were a rain cloud. It was Kaitlyn just about to land on top of me before I could move it felt like every bone in my body was crushed. Soon I woke up in a hospital with people hovering over me. They told me that I had a lot of bones broken and that they had to do surgery on my kidney.
I was surprised to see that Kaitlyn was alright, but I can't seem to say the same.
There was excruciating pain all through out my body. Within a week I was able to roll around in a motorized wheelchair,which I found out was actually quite fun,but that was the least of my worries. So they let me out of the hospital without the ability to walk so I was off to head home.
Well at least that's what I thought. I ended up in a grassy field,but again I have no clue how I got there. I was going through the field around 10 minutes. Then I hit a rut, at least that's what I thought, so I shook my wheelchair until I went over the rut into a steep muddy pit. I passed out and no one even saw or mentioned me again.

Matthew Newsom
One day, around 10a.m, I was sitting at home and the phone rang."Hey, Matt,"Landon said.
"Hey what do you want now"I replied.
"Do you want two come over two my place two dig a new trench for the air soft war?"Landon asked.
I answered,"OK i will be there in a minute, wait for me outside your house with the shovels."
After we got off the phone, I went outside in my old digging boots. As I was walking down the hill two Landon's house, there was a flash of light come from right next two me. I gasped,"What was that?!"
Then i ran two where we have one of the trenches.When I got there Landon has already marked the ground of what we are going two dig and make a wall out of."Hey, Matt what took you?"Landon asked.
"There was some bright light that kinda freaked me out,"I answered.
"That would be the sun."Landon said as he laughed.
"No,"I stared,"it came from next two me, lets go look and see what it is."
Landon paused for a moment and then said"we will after we dig another part of the hole." Then Landon started to dig."Dude,why are you not digging?"Landon asked.
"What,"I continued,"I was just thinking on what the light was." We dug until lunch an then we got pizza at Landon's house. As we ate I was still thinking about the light.
When we finish Landon was starting to ask,"Hey, Matt do you want to play me in Halo? I need to practice on my sniping."
"No you said that we are doing to see what the light was."I replied.
Landon started"Yeah well,"he sighed,"I forgot."
"OK lets go an find what made it"I urged. Then we went outside and started to walk up to where the flash was. As we came up to the spot, we both saw a flash.
"Matt, did you see that!"Landon yelled.
"Yeah,"I answered."I told you that it wasn't the sun."I bragged.
"OK you are right that it wasn't the sun, now what was that?"Landon asked.
"I don't know, why do you think I said something about it at your house?"I answered with another question.
"Hey, do you see that fence maybe there is something on the other side."Landon proclaimed
"Yeah lets go see what is on the other side."I replied

Jesse Wilson
so went out into the woods and saw some animals, bugs, spiders, and a lot more. "Hey Jesse Joey your both seven right?" "yeah why" "Because you know there is a man that lives near here tha likes to eat little children!" "WHAT!" we yelled in fear "Lets go back home now Courtney now" we yelled "Ok" she said. So on the way back she ran off and yelled "I hope you two can keep up with me." We started after her, but could not keep up. "Courtney where are you?" we yelled. We found a log and sat down on it. We heard stuff the bushes '' w....w....what was that'' we cried. Then we heard someone laughing '' Courtney!'' we yelled ''where are you'' ''help us please.'' then something jumps out of the bushes, grabs me, and threw me on the ground. Joey runs over to me ''are you ok?'' he asked ''no im scared" I answered. We hear someone walking towards us and at that time my sister jumps out and scares us and laughs and said " It was me the whole time and there is no man that likes to eat little children I was just saying that to scare you" "well it worked" I sobbed. Then we went home. That was the most frightening day of my life.
Preston Lenox
ask myself? There they are in the dirty cloths hamper. So I put them on ,and run out the door. As I get half way to the car I hear mom yell come on Pressie we don't want to be late for church. So I hop in the back seat ,and off we go. " Mom my hair is red and I'm going to church like this,"I asked? ''Preston it is Easter they can just use as the egg,"she says as she laughs. Now Preston you know I'm just messing with you. ''Mom are you going to make me go up to the alter and start the singing again,"I ask? ''Yes Preston you know i will,"she bellowed. So when we arrived at church. We walked through the big white doors of the church. I tried to sit at the back ,but my mom would not let me. We always sit on the front row. I mean always. We were almost done with church. When the preacher walks up to me and asks son why don't you lead us in the final song of the day? No think you I'm fine where I am. So he pulled me out of my seat ,and i walk to the front of the church. I started and then stoped singing. "Come on son'', the preacher bellowed. So I started to sing again be fore I knew it the whole church had joined in. It wasn't so bad after all. No one even cared my hair was red. After church that day we went home and had i nice home cooked mill as a family and lived happily ever after and i never had a bad hair day again.
Brad Campbell
When we found it, it looked like something from outer space. It had crash landed in the middle of the forest. I told Mason to go towards it. He carefully avoid the sharp scraps of flaming metal to get to what seemed to be the cockpit. When he approached it he stepped in a green ooze. The ooze began to form into the shape of what looked like a man until razor sharp horns rose from its head and tentacles from its back. It released a poisonous gas that knocked Mason unconscious.
The creature slowly started creeping towards me. I turned and ran toward the city and cut my arm on a piece of metal. The creature engaged in pursuit. I started to lose him until he caught up to me on an odd contraption that gave him the ability to hover and speed through the trees. I thought I was doomed until Super-man swooped from the sky to save me, but Super-man isn't the best aviator. He flew between two trees and i hit my head on a limb.
When I woke up I was in my bed. I thought that it was a dream but I remembered cutting my arm, So I looked down to see that there was still a cut there. That's when I heard a loud bang down-stairs. I went down to see. It was the alien. He must have placed a transmitter on my clothes so he could follow me home. He slowly started towards me again until suddenly Mason appeared behind him with a kitchen knife and stabbed him repeatedly in the back. The alien fell to the ground, for he was defeated. I rushed towards Mason and gave him a big hug.
An hour later the cops showed up with some forensic investigators. They gave the body to the CIA and they gave us a huge reward for killing the alien. The next day we went to the skate park with two brand new boards in our hands and sense our heroic deed was published in the paper, on the news, and on the Internet we were walking tall. THE END

Kevin Glaze
So I turned back around and didn't think any thing about it until I heard it agin then I kind of ran to the bottom. I got down to the bottom and heard them again except this time they sounded like foot steps. Then I started saying to myself " K.t. just ignore it and keep going. " I got preety far in the woods and heard " K.t. come on it's dinner time. " By that time I had already shot two squirrels, and I sarted torward the house in a trot . All of a sudden I heard something running right behind me and I throw myself around and nothing was there. I yelled '' Alright dad I know I'm going to the house .'' Then something touched my leg snf I yelled '' Ok you got me , and I done caught on so you can't get me any more ! '' I turned around and there was nothig there . I just frozze and wondered how he could hit my leg and get away without me hearing him . I stood there thinking to myself " How did he do it , where did he go , and what is going to do next . " Then I realized that it couldn't be him cause he was just at the house . I was standing there looking in the tree's and the something jumped up on my leg . I jerked and looked down and it was my dog.

" Are we there yet? " Dalton pestered me with the question as we walked down my driveway. We had just got off of the school bus and were heading to the woods in the backyard so I could show Dalton the well I had found. "NO!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. "Keep quiet and follow..." Dalton and I gazed up at a crow carrying a blood stained knife in its beak. Without a word we shot after the bird. We must have ran at least two miles when the bird roosted in a hollow pine tree.
Since Dalton was the lightest, he climbed on my shoulders and slowly climbed up the pine tree. When he came upon the hole it was sunset and the wind rustled the trees. "Hurry," I shouted, "I've got to get something for my shoulders and you need to get something to lose weight." Dalton climbed over to the hole and WHOOSH!!! He slid right into the tree trunk.
I immediately decided to go for help. All of a sudden I heard "Psst!" I turned quicker than a wheel and tried to scope out who had psst me. I spotted nothing but the bird on the tree. "Can you talk?" I questioned the bird. " That I can," he replied in an Irish accent.
I was at a loss for words. I was only able to utter the words "Am I going crazy?" I thought to myself. "Listen up," The bird said in a soft but serious voice. "Your friend has been taken to another world, so leave now!" But by the time I heard the words "another world" I was climbing like a monkey on a banana tree.
I leaped into the hole and came out of the same tree. "Daniel!" I heard Dalton yelp. The world was like a mirror. It was a reflection and the exact opposite of my world. I began to show some anxiety and began to talk, only I had said everything backward. "Sorry, I didn't catch that," commented Dalton. " You have to try to say everything backward or it might come out twisted." He finally understood me even though what I had said sounded like " E tot oo ge' outa here."
I finally got the hang of talking when I had a brain wave and all of a sudden our problems were over. "Dalton, let's go," I proclaimed refusing to explain. We ran for a good while when we had finally got to my house. I continued once we got there, " If we got in by following that bird, when can get out the same way!"
We sat there like a lion waiting for pray when all of a sudden the school bus rumbled by my house like an earthquake. There were Dalton and I fumbling down the steps of the bus until I saw us both peer into the sky and take off. " Time to get out of here once and for all," I told Dalton as we took off after ourselves.
I saw the bird land on a hollow tree and knew immediately from instinct that was our way back home. Just as the mirror Dalton and Daniel began to climb the tree we jerked them down and knocked them unconcious by ramming them into the tree. We escaped through the hole and fell back into our world.
I looked around. It was as if time had stood still through our adventure. "Now let's see something," I inquired as I pulled out a piece of what LOOKED to be a piece of a blood stained knife out of my pocket. " Hey wait a minute," began Dalton. " You geabbed that from the mirror bird didn't you?" I nodded and took the other piece from the beak of the bird and forced them together. I then saw that the supposed knife was actually a ruby red gem that gleamed in the sunlight that was now fading. The hole sealed and we never went back.
Jessie Tweedie
Jessica Tweedie is to be a bus rider.
''Remember to ride the bus Jessie.'' Mrs. Bryant told me.
''Yes mam,'' I politely spoke.
I sad like when run over a cat on Christmas,but I figured my dad might have had something more important to do like getting a hair cut. When, I got of the bus I walked in Brown Recycling ,and Aunt Patty was standing there to give me the news.
"Jessie, I'm sorry ,but your dad has been in an accident and he flipped his semi. He is going..." Patty sorrows out.
I took off running crying and not caring about the details. I went to my usual hiding spot to cry , because I was scared to death that my dad had died,and it felt as if my belly had been tied in a knot ,but later I was told that he was ok and he only had a broke rib. I was relived ,but for those dreadful moments those were the most frighting of my life.
Taylor webster
First, I head to second period. Then I realize I forgot to finish my report, that's worth two one hundred point test grades. Which i get two zero's for. "This is just great" I whisper to myself.
I look down and notice a note on my desk. I open it. Its from my boyfriend of two years, Tanner, he want to break up. This is the worst news ever. After class, I meet him in the gym to talk.
"why, whats wrong?" I ask eagerly. " Nothings the same anymore, your growing up
and so am I" he Say's as if there is a teacher around. At this point I Begin to cry. "But growing up is good" I say slowly. "I have to go I will call you later" he says.
Next, The bell to leave rings. I walk slowly to my death. When I get in to Mrs. Green's class, I see My second period teacher is waiting on me. I listen to her ramble about how good grades are important. By the time shes done, It's time to leave. I rush out of the school. I don't see my moms car anywhere."Oh gosh, Shes going to be late" I say. I hate when shes late.
Finally, she arrives. A complete hour late. We get home around 4:50. I get on to the computer and to check my email. I notice a email from my friend amber, I click to open. Then I sit and read it over and over again. It went something like this:
Taylor,
I thought you would like to no. The reason I wasn't at school today was because, Mom Got in a wreck this morning. Shes OK, but she has a few broken bones and burns. Moms at Huntsville hospital room 339. Come and see if you get a chance.
love,
Amber
I yelled "mom come here". I then Showed her the email. We jumped in the car like jack rabbits.
We arrived at the hospital to find that Mrs. Milford Was in surgery. We sit in the waiting room for a long time. I soon fell asleep. I woke up to find it was all a dream. The worst day of my life was a dream. "Well think the lord" I say as I quickly as I jump up to get ready for school.
Kameron Pierce
I didn't want to ever go outside again. A couple of minutes later my Mom told me to go outside . I told her about what happened, but she just said I was seeing things. So we went into the backyard to the old club house. In there we talked over what it could have been. All I saw was a glimpse of the object and my friend should have got a good look. The only thing is my friend is a complete moron , so I couldn't get much information out of him. So from what all I know it was either we were totally insane and were just seeing things. That or a U.F.O and I frankly like the second part better so we'll go with that.So we grabbed some supplies and went back to where we saw the U.F.O to investigate.
Once we were back from where we started this crazy adventure we watched the sky to see if we could spot the space craft again. We stayed there for hours to see nothing but a bunch of stupid clouds.
Melea Mullican
In the sky floated a small glistening object reflecting of the sun. It was unusual looking (and for Mrs. Crow to notice was no surprise), but none of us had a clue of what to make of it. Before Mrs. Crow could stop it the entire class room's nose was pressed up against the window in amazement.
"Is that a balloon?"I asked. To me it looked like a tiny silver round speck in the sky. Could it be a balloon? So eventually we were all back in our seats (supposedly listening but just like normal 13 year old we were listening as well as your dog would when it is busy chasing a squirrel up a tree) about elements of fiction.
The day passed slowly and by 3:00 I thought no one would remember the object in the sky. Well one person remembered, Kayla, my best friend in fourth period English with me. "Did you see that spooky thing in the sky?!" she exclaimed. Kayla is ALWAYS hyper.
"Ya it was so cool! I wonder what it was. It looked kinda strange. You know like that old woman on 3rd St." I told her. I was laughing about that picture of Ms. Danker (the old woman) that had just popped in my head as we walked.
"Ha Ha very true! I'm not sure. Oh well you were probably right about it just being a balloon."
"I guess so, but that is very uninteresting I had hoped it was something better. Well see you tomorrow! Bye!"
"BYE!" So we headed off in different directions toward home. I looked up in the sky, on my way home, to see if it was still there but it was not. "Oh well." I sighed to myself.
Later that night I became bored so I was flipping through channels when I stopped on one with a siting report of that same mysterious object from before. Quickly I dialed Kayla's number.
"Turn to channel 3." I told her.
"It's a report on that object! Hang on let me three was Ashley." Ashley is our other best bud. We are pretty much inseparable.
"Hey! Ya I'm here. What channel was it?" Ashley asked.
"Channel 3 you dodo!" Kayla laughed.
"Shh! It's back!" I shut them both up.
"It was small," one woman told the reporter, "and bright. It almost looked like a a star in the middle of the day."
The reporter then turned back to the camera. "No one knows what that could have been. Because it can no longer be seen there is no way to tell what, as some people have come to call the day star, truly is."
"Did you hear that?" I asked them over the phone.
"Ya that is so weird. I thought for sure they would have a better idea of what it was than a Day Star. Didn't you?"
"YA!" Ashley chimed in. "A DAY STAR? You've got to be kidding!"
"Ya but oh well." I was unhappy with the results. "Hey, I have got to go. I will see you two tomorrow."
"Ok bye." They said together.
So there you have it. Was it a figment of every one's imagination? Really a Day Star? Or just a simple balloon in the sky? Just like how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop the world may never know.
Kayla Dobbs
"Hey Melea lets go to the park after school!" "OK I"ll go call my mom and ask her." "Oh yea Ashley is going too!" I added. " That is awesome!"Melea answered.
"Hey mom can i go to the park after school with Kayla and Ashley?"Melea asked her mom hopefully. "Sure" her mom answered.
After school we went to Husky Park. "Hey Ashley I am going to play a trick on Kayla, so go along with it.""OK!"Ashley answered giggling.
"OK here I go."she said as she through a quarter into the air. "This is going to be good!"Ashley whispered excitedly. "Oh my goodness did y'all see that!"I yelled. "Was that a UFO?" Melea nudged Ashley and they were giggling quietly."Yea I saw it too!"Ashley exclaimed trying not to bust out laughing. "I have NEVER in my whole life seen anything like it!"Melea giggled. " It was like the BIGGEST thing I have EVER saw!" "Do you think there is aliens in it?"Ashley asked. She had to turn around so i wouldn't see her laughing."Well duh!" I answered.
"Oh look I found a quarter!"I exclaimed."Ah man do you think she'll figure it out?" Ashley asked Melea. "Problay not!"Melea answered. "Yea Kayla that quarter is as shiny as glitter."Ash excalimed. Hey Kayla come here for a second I have to tell you something." Melea yelled. I'll be right there." "You tell her""No You tell her.""I don't her to be mad at me. This wasn't my idea!" "OK I'll tell her."Melea finally decided.
"What did you want to tell me?" I asked. "I threw that quarter just to play a trick on you, because I knew you would mistake it for something else!"Melea giggled. "YOU MEANIE HEAD!!!." " You do realize I have to get you two back now, right?" "You won't know where, when, or how!!" "MUHAHAHAHA" I laughed.
Elaine Fagerman
"Is it an airplane?" I ask my two best friends, Taylor and Kaylee.
"What if it's a UFO?" Taylor thinks out loud.
Kaylee and I giggle in response.
It was, August fourth, the last free night before school started back again. We were jumping on the trampoline in my backyard when we saw something glimmering in the sky. Kaylee claimed to have not seen anything. She is an extremely optimistic girl. As for Taylor and I, we are very mysterious and mischievous.
"Surely it is just a plastic bag in the wind," Kaylee tries to reassure us.
Abby, my pesky puppy, howls at the neighboring canines. Kaylee shivers. "Oh, I'm sure that's what it is," I sarcastically respond.
"Maybe we should try and go to sleep," Taylor suggests.
"Yeah! Good idea," I reply.
I try to sleep, but the same thing stirs in my mind, What was that thing?
Time seems to fly. I glance down at my watch. It had only been ten minutes since we had stopped jumping. "Are y'all still awake?" I whispered in the still darkness.
They groan as a sign that they are still conscious. "WHOA!" Taylor exclaims.
Her finger pointed up high in the sky. I follow the direction that her finger is pointed. "That's weird! Wasn't that shine to the South earlier?" I wonder.
"Indeed it was," Taylor replies,"and it seems to appear bigger and brighter too."
A loud roar beats down on us as the light flies further and further and then back where it was to begin with. Speckled dots surrounded the larger light. "What is it?" Kaylee asks.
"I'm telling you, Its a UFO!!!" Taylor tries to convince us.
" Oh Taylor, I highly doubt that!" I jump into the conversation.
"I'm thirsty!" Taylor blurts out of the blue."I'm going to go get a drink."
"We'll wait here."
A few minutes later, Taylor runs out of the house screaming. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!!!" she bellows.
"What's the matter?" I ask.
"I just happened to go downstairs and check the news and as I stumbled to see the screen, it said that there was an airplane in the sky and that whoever were to take a picture and email it to the website would receive 10,000,000 dollars to their front door the next day!"
"Awesome!" Kaylee admires.
"Well..... What are you waiting for? Go get the camera!"
We took several pictures and emailed them to the user at the website.
The next morning, I woke up and I heard the doorbell faintly ring. Without hesitation, I slowly get up and answer the door. First, I looked through the window. Nobody there. I decided to check the door just in case. I stepped through the doorway. From nowhere, Kaylee and Taylor jump in front of me with bottles of silly string. Giving me a second to recover from the shock, they then plastered me with it. "Ha ha! We got you!" Taylor grins.
"Say what now?" I ask.
"Yep!"
"Ugh! Why?"
"It was a good joke! Ha ha!"
"But.. but.. but.. What was the light?
"A flashlight hanging from a tree branch with fishing line."
"The dots around it?"
"Lightning bugs I guess."
"Okay well what about the website?"
"Um.... I really don't know!"
"Hm.. You girls are so mean! Just kidding."
They eventually left and then school started up again. Same as ever. They didn't pull another prank on me again, that I know of.
Yet I still wonder what the loud roaring was....
Tiffany Reese
While me and Kady where walking to the edge of the woods my cousin Robert and one of his best friends wanted to go for a walk in the woods with us so we let them. Then as we where walking and talking in the woods Alex ,Roberts best friend wanted to play hide and go seek in the woods. It took us a while ,but we decided to play to and Robert was it. Then while we where running around and talking and giggling all of the sudden we heard a faint laugh and we all got quiet and got back in to our little group that we had.
Kady had asked me "who had made the noise" and i told her "that i had no clue" and then as we slowly kept walking in to the woods deeper and deeper that afternoon we heard another noise and Alex said that sounded really close to us that time and we all agreed that it did ,but then all we waited for just a few minutes and we didn't hear it so we all kept walking then we didn't get so loud and we noticed that something or someone was or had been following us the whole time that we had been hearing those weird noises in the woods.
Alex was talking to all of us then all of the sudden something started chasing us deeper and deeper in to the woods that we were in at the time and as Kady screamed she dropped the watch that we were supposed to take with us and then Kady and i got suppurated from Robert and Alex. Then Kady and I just kept walking hoping that we would find them on our walk. Then all of the sudden Kady said "O look over there" so then i looked and it was a house that looked abandedand me and Kady walked up to the door and then as we where talking about who was going to open the door or knock on it the door opened for us then before I could tell Kady not to go in she had already went in side of the old abanded house and was touching the furniture and laying on the couch an trying to see if the t.v. would come on but it didn't I told her i think that we should get out of there before someone or something came there to where we were at. then after I begged her not to Kady wanted to go up stairs and find out what was up there I said"I'm going to leave.''
She said ''fine leave'' so I was walking out the door as Kady was walking up stairs Kady screamed eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa so i ran up stairs and there were bates a chest and they were flying all across the room in that old house. So after that Kady decided to leave the house with me and on our way out of that old house Robert and Alex were getting ready to walk in to it.
They asked what had happend so we told them then we all got off that property and started walking back in to the woods to find our way back home. Then when we got back in to the woods that eval kbyfkufyuk
Roman Maxwell
My head hurt as I stood, got dressed, and went to breakfast. I felt a lurch as I missed the stairs that lead to the kitchen. I stood for a second time, and went to the cabinet to get some "Fruit Loops" and then to the refridgerator to get some milk. When I opened the door, all I saw was chocolate milk. "Nobody like chocolate milk on "Fruit Loops." "Guess I'll eat it dry," I thought dissapointedly.
At about that second, my five year old little brother entered with a tall glass of chocolate milk. He sat the milk on the table for a second and thought. Then he reached for the glass and knocked over the milk all on my pants. I yelled at my mom to clean up, and went to my room and changed shorts.
Then I went to brush my teeth, thinking about how the day will go. I coughed as something terrible entered my mouth. I had accidentally used soap instead of toothpaste! I spat it all out, gagging, and used toothpaste this time.
I went and got in the car with my stepdad. Once we got to school I said my goodbyes and got out of the car with my books and homework in hand. I tripped on the doorfacing of the school building and fell, scattering my homework. I got up from the faceplant and, feeling embarrased, headed to my locker. "Wonder what will happen in Math class today..." I mentioned in homeroom to my friend Zack. "Dunno, I usually dont listen." Zack replied. "Everything I do goes wrong today.," No kidding," He said back.
The bell rings and Zack and me stay in our seats for math. Mr. Roberts asked us to get out our homework from last night for him to check. I looked all about my belongings but I couldn't find my homework. I told Mr. Roberts of my situation and he told me I had detention for the next day. He hadn't taken two steps until he saw that I had gum in my mouth. "Son, take out your gum and put it in my hand." Disgusted of why Mr. Roberts would ever want chewed gum in his hand, I spat and looked down and I realized I had missed Mr. Roberts's hand and it had got stuck to his shoe. "Come with me son." He said in full fury, as he frog-marched me outside into the hall. I glanced behind me and saw Zack sniggering. I tried to tell Mr. Roberts that it was an accident but he would not listen. It was at this moment I realized we were headed to the prinicipals office. Panicking, I kicked Mr. Roberts leg and he cried in pain. "Seeya!" I said as I started running away. I heard footsteps behind me as I stopped off at Mr. Roberts's room to get Zack. "C'mon," "We're getting outa here." Ignoring zacks questions, I was running towards the lunchroom and saw the lunch crowd. Zack and I turned around and saw that Mr. Roberts and his reinforcements running toward us, well, Mr. Roberts was hobbling... Zack ran toward the south door and I was folowing him...until I slipped on a ketchup pack. I slid a good 10 feet before hitting the table. Mr. Roberts grabbed me and pinned me down. I looked over and saw that Mr. Curtis had Zack. "Oh great!" I thought. Then I heard a peculiar sound. It sounded like an alarm, but it sounded like my alarm. I rolled over opened my eyes and there was my alarm. Mr. Curtis, Zack, and Mr. Roberts faded. "Bye" I said to Zack. Then he faded away and I was awake. It was a dream.
Jeremy Pylant
"Ever have that feeling in your gut that's something bad about to happen?" I asked.
"Like now?" He replied.
"Uh huh!" I replied back. Finally we rushed out side see what was wrong and I looked up and saw something big and shiny fly across the sky was also very close to us then. Boom! It crashed behind his house in the woods.
"what the?" Ryan asked.
"I don't know you tell me!" I yelled.
"Lets go check it out!" I said in a brave concept that I was just pretending.
We ran to the spot it landed, was lots of smoke and dust still around and I was afraid to breath it in so I put my shirt over my face so it would filter the smoke. We looked at it for a while. It was a shiny silver, so I said.
"Go touch it Ryan!"
"No!" He yelled at me.
So I went up slowly up to it and put my right hand on it.
"Ouch!" I exclaimed!
"Its hot!"
So I waited a couple of minutes and it cooled a little and touched again wasn't hot. All of a sudden it starts wobbling side to side.
Ashley Turney
As me Melea, Kayla, Jessica, and Randell drove into the road we gasped of frightness. It was a long road. Well i guess you could say about 5 miles and it was just pour darkness. It was as dark as a jet black cat with yellow eyes. " are we here , " asked Melea. " yes were here," replied Kayla. " are we sure that we really want to be here and hike this is really scaring me and we ain't even there yet, " exclaimed Jessica. " yeah like gerr this is so cool lets keep on! " Kayla exclaimed. So we drove along about 3 miles and the car stopped. " well guys we ran out of gas." I announced. " Ashley stop that I'm scared as it is don't do that stuff to us. " Said Randell. " y'all I'm not joking we ran out of gas. listen," I yelled in anger. rrrrrrrr nothing.
I got out and called my mom and she said she would be here in a minute. So we hiked up the road and we found an old house none of use had been here. So we all decided to come. As we came upon the old house Melea gasped, " this is so scary lets go back." Kayla yelled " no way this is just get tin interesting. So we walked in and looked around. But whichly you couldn't even see your hand in front of your face. As we walked the floor creep ed as if it would fall through any second. We sat down for a minute and then we heard foot steps. " Y'all if your up sit down please I'm getting scared, " I said in frightness. they all answered i am. "then what was that," i gasped. so we walked up the hallway and heard it again. " hey its coming from in here," Melea said. So we opened the door and there was a baby and her mom. She chased us down the hall and grabbed me! " Hey y'all help me" every one came to help they got me aw and we ran to the car as we ran we yelled and screamed.
We got to the car and my mom was there. " why were y'all screaming." She asked. Randell stuttered, '' gh gh gho ghost." My mom did not believe. So we got in the car and drove on to Dairy Queen for ice cream.
As the my alarm clock rang I realized that it was a dream a scary one in fact. So i got dressed and ran down stairs for school. I told all my friends and they laughed. " maybe we could go! " Kayla said. " um mm i don't now about that!"
Courtney West
" Courtney the bus just went by." I replied "we`ll have to get Daddy to take us,""OK," Jeremy replied.
We woke my dad up and told him he had to take us to school. On the way we had to get be hide a slow person. When we got their the bell had rang. The went by kind of slow. When 5th got here we had to work out hard.We went to lunch and then to 6th. Then 7th was over I got on the bus and went home.
"We are home,"I told Daddy. Jeremy asked,"can we ride the four wheeler and the dirt bike," Daddy replied "yes." So we went and I seen Jeremy wreak. I rush over there and Jeremy said" take me to Daddy," so I did. Then we had to take him to the e.r. .They looked at him and told us his arm was broken.We got home about 11:00. So I went straight to bed. That was the most wrost day of my life.
Dalton Scott
I ran faster than I thought I ever would."Theres just no way possible I'll outrun this thing,"I thought as I dashed for my life.The aircraft flew closer and closer until it seized right on top of the earth.I stopped and observed what seemed to be the most advanced looking jet I had ever seen.The jet started to move it's parts and began to stand up.The jet had transformed into a towering metal figure.
I had to look straight up just to see the giant's head."You're planet is ours!"said the chrome-like giant with a screechy voice."What did he mean by ours?"I questioned myself,"Where there more of them."Suddenly,a huge eighteen-wheeler started speeding toward me."Stop right there decepticon!"screeched the truck."Decepticon?"I wondered.The eighteen-wheeler started to move it's parts and transformed.I looked up at the new metal giant."Holy snot,its Optimus Prime!"I yelled.Optimus Prime knoked down the decepticon in one blow."Quick, get in!"commanded Optimus as he turned back into an eighteen-wheeler.I hopped in and Optimus slammed on the gas.
I looked down at the speed-ometer in Optimus."We're going 220 miles per hour!"I screamed fearfully."So?"Optimus asked as if it didn't bother him at all.After about a ten minute drive we arrived at some sort of strange base."We're here,"stated Optimus.I got out of Optimus Prime and couldn't believe my eyes.Several other transformers stared down at me and Optimus."Autobots,it's time we go to war with these decepticons,and destroy them once and for all!"demaned Optimus."Yea!"cried the autobots in agreement.Now I was in the middle of one huge war.
Optimus,the other autobots and I raced to the battlefield where the war was taking place.Several decepticons were standing in the battlefield.The autobot and I stared down the decepticons."It ends now Megatron!"yelled Optimus."Yes,for you Optimus Prime!"replied Megatron."If I was still seven years old this would all be a dream come true,"I thought.The two armies clashed together.I ran behind the nearest rock and got a veiw of the battle.The two armies had a long and agressive fight that dragged on for hours.I even had to move a few times to keep from getting squashed.It was finally down to Optimus Prime,a few autobots,and Megatron.Megatron took down two autobots with a single move ,but the autobots finally over powered Megatron.
We arrived back at the base were the autobots decided it was time to go back to thier own planet."We were glad to have you own our side,Dalton,"said Optimus proudly."No problem,"I replied even though I clearly didnt help at all."I suppose it's time we departed,"Optimus told the other autobots.They finally flew back to thier own planet.I began to walk home not believing what all had happened when I tripped over a rock and knocked myself out.I woke up from the dream."I had a feeling it was all a dream,"I thought.
I got up and looked out my window and saw a strange shiny object up in the sky."I'll just pretend I didn't see that,"I thought as I walked away from my window.
Zack Henderson
I thought I'd get a cup of coffee and join them but, there wasn't any coffee in the pot which is wierd. I headed up there anyway but they weren't anywhere to be seen.
I thought my aunt might know where they were at.I walked in and she was no where to be found. I decided well maybe my grandmas at home but, she was not either. "this is really wierd..." I said to myself.
I went back home and, picked up the phone and starting dialing every number i knew of. Not a soul answered the phone. I got on my 4-wheeler and started driving down my road but, everyones cars are still there though...
While I'm riding down the road i stop by my freinds house and, I go and bang on the door. I stood there knocking on the door but no one ever came to the door. I got back on my 4-wheeler and kept heading down the road. The next thing i know i see something burning fall out of the sky and BOOM! It crashed somewhere around me.
I starting driving over there and i was about 30 yard away and got off my fourwheeler and peeked around the bushes. This huge door opens a wierd sound reaches my ears then this alien thats about 6ft tall jumps out of the ship and looks around. I jumped down and crawled back to my 4-wheeler I think it almost saw me. I drove back to my house at full speed.
I sat down for a while then thought Iwonder if this thing has anything to do with everyone being gone. I'm not going down without a fight i thought.
I picked up my sword, knives, my bow and arrows,and my dads 12guage shotgun. Then i headed back toward the crash site and the alien that was guarding was on the ground dead. I quick and quitely jumped on board and this little alien said something then i whiped my bow and arrow out and knocked an arrow in to it. It fell down to the ground dead.
Then this familar voice eclmains."nice! now untie me."
I looked over and theres Roman tied up on the gound. "Whats going on?" I questioned as i started to untie him.
" some wierd aliens started ubducting everyone. Where did you hide at?" He replied as he jumped up.
"Hide? I just now woke up." I responded.
"Your lucky that they didnt get you then...Lets stop catching up on things and see if we can find anything." He replied.
I nodded and we started walking down this really long hallway that had many doors on each side. We would check each door by barely opening it and peeking around. About 25 doors down we opened a door it was a weapon room. 4 Little aliens guarding it. I think they were asleep. Roman signalled to take on the 2 on the left and he'd get the ones on the right. We quickly and quietly slaughtered them.
I picked up some kind of wierd gun that had needles on the top of it that looked purple. Roman picked up a blue looking gun that had a bar on the side that looked like it told you how close it was to over heating.
We headed down the hall using the same routine for the doors. Then we came across a room with 6 big alien guards in it and all the other people were tied up in there. We left the door barely open where they couldn't see us.
He used hand signs telling me to get the three on the left and he'd get the three on the right. We kicked the door in and we were about to open fire when we saw 6 guns pointed at our heads. "Drop the needler and the plasma rifle or be shot!" They demanded.
We dropped the guns and roman hands me 2 baseball sized blue grenades and tells me, "Use them well."
He then throws a smoke bomb on the ground and picks up both of the guns and starts firing."NOW!" he yelled.
I threw both of the grenades and there was a 2 loud bangs from the grenades. The smoke slowly cleared to reveal all of them dead.
I started untieing everyone. Then i hear something jump down and hit the floor. I wheeled around fast enough to see it knock Roman unconsious.
I pulled out my sword and charged the giant thing. Then it stops the blade in mid air and snaps it in 2 like nothing. I jumped back and pulled out my knives and started thowing them at it, but they hit him and just fall off. I started running to get it away from everyone that was tied up and i tripped and started backing up.
I bumped into Roman and he coughed up blood "Use this." he whispered weakly.
It was his last grenade. I threw the grenade to the giant thing it sticks to him and starts running around like a mad man. Then the grenade blows up on him and he fell down dead.
First thing I did was untie a doctor and started bandaging Roman up "Your friends going to be okay. He's just going to need some rest." the doctor replied with a hint of relief.
A few days later the government comes and takes the huge ship back to area 51. The aliens never came back to Earth again.
Nathan Campbell
The second thing that I noticed was that I was the only one at the house. But I was OK because that wasn't the first time that I was at home alone, but that was the first time that my three wheeler disappeared. So I decided to just ignore it and just went to go and play with my dog. When I made it to my dog pin my dog was not there. I began to get really really mad so I shouted what is wrong with me very loud. I went to go look for my three wheeler and my dog about an hour later I didn't find anything so I cane home to make something to eat so I can look later when my mom comes home from work. After I ate some Roman noodled I went in my room to play the game, but I just madder when when I saw that none of my things
Taylor Dickerson
I woke up and looked at the clock, it was 9:30! I had slept in! I got dressed and ran to school, and into the office to check in. they didn't hear me say that I needed to check in. " HELLO?" I said screaming! They still didn't hear me. I walked up to my friend, Kara, who was the office assistant. I poked her, but my hand went right through her!
I ran into town, to try to get some help to see what was happening. I saw dozens of ghosts floating toward a creepy, old store. I went up to one and questioned," Are you a ghost? Am I a ghost? I need help!". " Of course I'm a ghost, silly! You are ,too! Come with me, we are having a meeting. By the way, my name is Amy! What is your name?" The ghost replied quickly. " My name is Taylor! Am I dead? I mean I'm a ghost, I'm supposed to be dead!" I responded. " Just follow me, the leader will tell you everything!" she added. We both floated to the creepy, old store. Inside, there were probably sixty to seventy ghosts sitting in chairs, and one standing at the podium about to speak. Amy and I sat in the very front, which was the only place left to sit.
" Okay, everyone! Quiet! Now, just to be on the same page, we are all ghosts, 100% dead! Okay? Remember not to scare the people, they will know it's us! Then, we would be history! Ha Ha!" announced Jim, the leader of all the ghosts. I ran outside, and fell to the ground! Amy followed me and asked," What's wrong?". " I'm dead? How did I die ,though?" I said crying. " You died in your sleep, two days ago. It takes a little while to become a ghost!" she pointed out to me.
I walked home, sadly by myself. I stayed there for the rest of the day. " I didn't want life to be that simple! I shouldn't of made that stupid wish!" I thought to myself. I cried myself to sleep, eventually.
" OW! Where am I? What just happened?" I murmured. "Taylor? Are you okay? You're in the driveway! You were sleep-walking, and you ran straight into the car!" my mom alerted me. " Outside? I'm not a ghost! Yes!" I rejoiced. " Now, Taylor, you need to go to sleep! It's three A.M." Mom demanded. I smiled and skipped back to my bed, happy that I was never a ghost!
Jessica Graveman
Ring, Ring, Ring went my alarm clock. When i reached over to turn it off, THUMP! I fell out of bed. "Oh well one mistake big deal," I assured myself while picking myself up and off the floor. So I went to my bathroom to get ready for school. When it was time to do my hair I straighten it, I curled it, I even tried wetting it but nothing could tame the wild beast in my hair. Right then I knew that this was going to be a horrible day. Especially when I went into my closet and all of my good clothes were dirty. The only thing that I had clean to were was a old shirt and not what I would consider my type of pants.
As soon as school started i went strait to my locker when I saw Melea walking towards me. "Hey Jessica what's wrong?" She questions as if she couldn't tell by the clothes that i was wearing.
"Oh nothing just having a bad day I guess," I replied politely just so we could get away from the subject.
"I'm sorry but we better hurry up and get to 1st period or well be in trouble,"she whispered consciously. As I quickly ran behind her. As soon as we took a seat the bell rang.
"Sit down and get prepared for your test," Mrs Green announced.
"Test what test," I questioned as I turned around looking desperately for an answer.
"Shh! No talking," Mrs. Green announced in her quest for totally silence in the room. I didn't know any of the answers but I guess that I'll have to try. Ring, Ring went the bell as i sighed out of relief that 1st period was over. As i stood up to get out of my seat I tripped and papers went fling everywhere. I hurried to pick all of them up then ruched to 2ND period.
"Good morning class please pull out your homework and lets get started," Mr. Curtis spoke cheerfully. i reached out into my folder for my homework when to my surprise that my homework section of my folder was empty.
"Mr. Curtis," I mumbled, " I can't seem to find my homework."
" I'm sorry Jessica but without your homework I guess that you'll have to take a zero," he replied sorrowfully। I quickly buried my face beneath my arms telling my self how stupid I was for making such a foolish mistake and prayed that the rest of the day would go better. It did that was until lunch। There I was standing in line ready to pay for my tea like normal and no money. So instead I had to settle for the the schools nasty milk. So I grabbed my lunch set down and all of a sudden someone knocked it of and it fell all into my lap in front of the whole school. I was to embarrassed to clean it up all I could do was run out of the lunch room crying to the nurses office. Later I went back to pants with a pair of pants that look like shorts. I was to scared to move, touch, or say anything all of 6Th period so you might be able to say my bad luck kinda froze. It was in 7Th period that my luck kinda sprung back up again. You see my ankle was still very soar from when I tripped out of my desk early that morning. The reason that is bad is because it was a Monday and on Mondays we run. After my ankle became black and blue I heard the best sound that I thought that I had ever heard. The last period school bell. I limped as fast as I could to my car and went straight home. Then I crawled into bed, buried my faced in my pillow, and gave a long hard sigh. No one knows why we have bad days we just do. So now you have it mine and possibly the worlds worst day ever.
Katie Partain
It started off as a normal Summer day. Hot, boring, and bright. I got up from the couch where I had been watching T.V. and looked at the clock. It was 4:00. I had to be at Casey's for her birthday party at 4:30. She only lived about 5 minutes away, but we had to get a card & who knows how long that would take?
"Mom." I said as I walked into the kitchen where she was. "We still need to go get Casey a card." I reminded her.
"Okay. Let me finish this real quick." She told me.
"Alright." I said as I walked back to the small living room and put my shoes on.
We went and got the card and made it to Casey's on time actually. As I walked up the front door, before I could get my hand on it, the door burst open.
"Hey Katie!!!" Caroline said happily as she opened the door.
"Hey!" I laughed at her enthusiasm. I looked in the living room of Casey's large house as Caroline babbled on and on, and saw Amber, Alexa and Casey all playing 'Twister'.
"Caroline! Get back in here and spin!! We're getting tired!" Casey laughed.
"Coming!" Caroline said as she ran back in there jumping over them, but she stepped on Alexa's foot and Alexa fell back on Casey, who knocked Amber over. There were, 'Ows!' and 'Ahs!!' as they all fell over.
"Whoops!" Caroline laughed.
"Wanna play, Katie?" Casey asked.
"Sure!" I answered knowing I would lose since I'm awful at that game. "Wait, is Lexii coming?" I asked.
"Chyeah I am!" I heard her say from behind me. We all laughed about her secret entrance.
"Well, we gonna play 'Twister' or what?" Casey asked with a giggle.
We played 'Twister' for a while and then ate dinner, and went upstairs to Casey's room.
"Truth or dare anyone?" Casey asked.
"Yeah. Sure. " We all agreed.
"But, lets play in teams! Its a lot more fun to play in teams, especially on dares!" Lexii suggested. We all paired up. Casey and I, Lexii and Caroline, Alexa and Amber.
"I'll go first!!" Lexii said loudly. "Okay. Casey and Katie, truth or dare?" She asked.
"Dare!" Casey said before I could say anything. I wanted truth because, well, I'm not a risky person.
"Okay. Go to the 'haunted' house next door and go in, stay for 10 minutes and then your done." Lexii said to us with a huge grin.
"No! I won't! I won't!" I said to them.
"Oh please! Its not like it's really haunted!" They all pleaded.
"Okay, okay." I finally agreed with a roll of my eyes.
The house was said to be haunted by the ghost of its last owner, Mr.Garrison. He was a creepy old man, hardly ever came out his house, and one day he fell out of the window as he was walking down the hall. The window was up and he tripped on a rug. Now, people say if you go inside that house, he will throw you out the window too.
Casey and I walked up to the door as the others waited in the front yard of his house. We opened the door nervously. It made a loud creak and then we shut it when we got inside. It made such a loud noise and a slam that dust went everywhere. We looked around and saw the rug. It still had a spot where someone had tripped over it. Then we saw the window.
"Wow. Those stories must have been true!" Casey said excitedly. We looked up because we heard a door creak. We saw a door slowly, but noisely open. An old man, or thats what it looked like, started to creep from behind it. We stood there, pertrifyed, unable to move.
"Get........out.......of..........my....house!" He whezzed.
"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" We screamed as we ran fast as we could outside the house. We told them all about our run in with the old man. They just laughed and said we were bluffing. But, Casey and I knew it was true, and we were never going anywhere near that old house again.
