Nightmares by Caroline Moncrieff (little red riding hood read aloud txt) 📖

Chapter 1
In a dark, cold place were no one has been before. I stood in the middle of it shaking like an earthquake. I kept saying I was going to be ok, I closed my eyes and prayed as hared as I could that I was going to be alright. A few seconds later I heard whispers saying “Barba Barba” then a man spoke behind me saying “hello Barba” I turned quickly and saw a man with gray hair and blood shot eyes, his face was covered with scratches and his mouth had an evil smile, he started to slowly open his mouth to show his teeth. His teeth were cover in bright red blood and he had two fangs that could bite throw metal. He started to laugh and my hairs started to stick up I screamed as loud as a train as he jumped on me like he wanted to eat me. Then I woke up with a jump I said, “it was just a dream” in my head. I sighed in relieve. I saw the window opened I thought “I closed that window I think,” I walked to the window, outside was snowing “that’s funny its spring” I was confused but I just went with it. I closed the window and got changed into my pink winter clothes and went down stairs for break fast. My dad was reading a book as my mum cooked sausages and bacon, my big sister lily is 25 she thinks that she can call me names because I’m smaller than her but every time mum catches her she is in deepy. As I ate my break fast the bus came so I had to run to the bus but as I picked up my bag I heard whispers the same ones from my dream but this time they said, “get ready Barba”. I tried to ignore them as I walked out side to the bus I felt someone touch me but no one was there and I started to run. In the bus every one was throwing food and shouting. My schools name is salmon san the most boring school in the world, I think the teachers are mindless zombies but there is one exciting thing at that school “josh”. My prince and my love forever. We’ve been together for 2 years and we love each other more than we used to. He told me that every day he would make sure he could see me even if he was dead. When the bus stopped at the school I looked out for josh but he wasn’t there, “Josh” I shouted, I started hearing foot steppes coming closer and closer then someone put there hand on my right shoulder, it wasn’t josh because the hand belonged to a different person, by the looks of the hand the person was about 30; The hand started to squeeze my shoulder very hard, I grabbed the hand and twisted it pain fully. My eyes opened much wider than before, my mouth opened as wide as my eyes. My eyes looked straight into his dark black eyes. ‘It can’t be, he was the same man from my dream: my nightmare.’ He started to smile, very wickedly, and said, “Do you mind, that’s my arm. Do you mind letting go?” I slowly released the scarred arm. I felt some kind of liquid on my arm, it was blood, but it wasn’t on his arm, and not on mine. I wondered where it came from. I started rubbing the blood on my shirt. I looked at my hand, the blood was gone : but there was no blood on my shirt. I looked up to where the man was standing, but he wasn’t there. I went running to one of the student’s and asked them were the man was, and their only reply was, “There was no man.” I blanked out for a couple of seconds, until I heard the bell ring. I shook my head, confused. As I was running to the door, inside, I was thinking to myself, ‘How could he not be there?’ I looked at my list, to see what class I was doing (I never seemed to remember what my classes were). On my list, it said I had Mathematics. Inside, I was screaming to myself, because I hated maths – I was rubbish at it. When I got to the door, I took a deep breath, and opened the door and walked in, dazed. When I glanced up, I froze, not knowing my surroundings, shocked by whom, stood in front of me. “Barba, you’re not in this class young lady,” the man whispered. The only thing I could do was stare at him, recognizing him, straight away. “Uh, what?” I whispered, re-checking my schedule - I swore, a minute ago, it said language. The teacher smiled a sly smile and said, “Come in, Barba.” I slowly walked forward at his command. The minute I walked in the door, it slammed shut behind me, the 5 locks locking themselves. None of the class were listening, so they didn’t notice, nor did they understand. I looked at the class to see if the were staring at me but with surprise no one did, instead they were disappearing. my heart started to beat faster as i walked backwards in surprise. then , my eyes were open wider than my mouth, my heart started racing. I started to walk backwards until my back was on the wall; I started to shake like an erupting volcano. I was still looking about to see if any body wasn’t disappearing but no luck, but then i saw Josh. he started to wisper things i did,t under stand
