| Okay, So my language arts teacher asked me to write a short story that was kinda brief so.. This is it? - Please feel free to revise and critique! Oh, and rate too!:
The moonlight reflected off his eyes as he walked through the dark woods, shaking in fear with each step he took. He heard leaves crunching behind him, but was too afraid to look, there was no turning back now. More leafs crunching, now followed by the sound of faint screams. He broke out into a full-on sprint, the wind pounding on his face. His ears became hot, as they were filled with the sounds of his own heart-beat. He saw the lights on in his house, though he was sure that he turned them off before he left. He ran to the door and pulled his keys out his pocket, fumbling for the keys to the door. He dropped the keys, hearing the chime noise as they hit the ground, he bent down to pick them up when he heard a booming laugh. He was now crawling on the ground, trying to find the keys, by using the light from his phone.
Finally finding his keys, he opened the door and went straight in, forgetting to shut the door behind him. He went tot he kitchen and turned the lights on, suddenly he jumped back as he saw a huge heart drawn in some-kind of red liquid on the wall. There was a note in the center. he plucked it off the wall and opened it. The note read: "Dear Jared, I've arranged a horror movie for the 2 of us, I'm waiting in the living room. Love, Mandy."
Jared went to his room and turned up the heat, he took off his coat and headed downstairs. The front door was open, and that's when he heard the faint sounds of footsteps in the living room. Assuming it was Mandy, he went to the fridge and poured himself a glass of soy-milk. He sipped from his milk then realized a sudden loss in the room's thermal energy. Jared put his glass down and ran to the window, and he saw his worst fear, perched onto a tree. It was a hand-made porcelain clown. He heard a thump in the living room. He ran there and found the remote in front of the window, almost like it had been thrown at it. Suddenly he remembered Mandy's note.
He walked over to the couch ans saw her sleeping with a blanket over her face, there was popcorn spilled onto the floor. Jared looked out the window and saw the same clown, but it was alive, and now scratching at the window, where the remote had made a crack. Jared closed the curtains and grabbed a knife, while heating a frying pan on the stove. Jared chugged his glass of soy-milk and turned off the stove. He held the knife in his dominant hand, with he frying pan in the other. He heard the window break, and then some growling. Jared let out a little shriek to drag attention, he was ready for a fight. "Come at me, you psycho maniac!" Jared hollered, he took a step back and watched the clown get up off the floor, making it's way to him, slowly. Jared charged at it, screaming while doing so. The clown leaped up onto him, and Jared tried to swat it away with the frying pan. That thing was strong. Jared fell to the ground and the clown began to claw at his face, "get off me.. you filthy, OW!" Jared shrieked in pain. He heard a tapping noise in the background as he pushed the clown off of him and onto the coffee table. "You're mine now!" Jared said breathlessly as he lunged for the clown, repeatedly smacking it on the way down. Jared fell over-top of the clown, he then heard a muffled thump. He stood up, bracing himself for more. The clown's leg twitched and then there was nothing. Jared turned the doll over and gasped, the face was completely smashed, Jared barely recognized the clown at all.
He saw a faint green fog rise from the clown's body and float up, then right out the broken window, disappearing into the night sky. Jared heard more of the eery tapping noise, then the phone rang. Jared was too frightened to pick up the phone, he went on the couch and buried himself inside the blanket, pressing himself against Mandy. Then the T.V switched on, "come and find me!" said an eery high pitched voice...
Jared leaped out from the couch and Mandy fell tot he floor with a thud, she was out cold. Jared fell to his knees to check on her, then something caught his eye. The lights in the kitchen were rapidly flicking on and off. Jared headed to the kitchen and his laptop was propped up on the counter. The screen was opened to Microsoft Word, it read" Jared Shloden walked to the laptop, glancing at the screen, he began to read it, wondering what the heck was going on, as he continued to read he backed away from the laptop. then a look of horror struck his face, as he finished reading the laptop it flashed and..." Jared was terrified, the laptop flashed on and off, then a plain blue screen, "come and find me!" the voice said once more, the kitchen lights turned off then the whole house went black. "You never found me!" the voice chimed, then that was the end of poor Jared Shloden.
So tell me.. how was it? | |
