The Disaster on Halloween
Chapter 1

“Ring,” School is out, and Meaghann runs to catch up with Shelby, Brianna, and Caitlyn.
“Hey guys meet me at nine o’clock, at my house.” Meaghann said, still running towards them.
“Okay!” said the three friends, as they were pushed towards their lockers. Soon after Meaghann finished her homework, the doorbell rang, Meaghann opened the door and there in front of her, were Caitlin, Brianna, and Shelby.
“Hang on one more minute, I have to lock and close all the windows and get my house key,” Meaghann said, walking all through the two-story house. The four friends went to the nearest church to get candy. The girls wanted to go inside, for they needed to cool down. So, Shelby found a room that no one was in or was using, so, Meaghann and Brianna shut the doors and locked them too. Suddenly the lights went out and Meaghann quickly turned them on, only to see that she was alone in the quiet, empty room.
“Hello? Guys, come out please!” Meaghann said walking backwards towards the door. Then Meaghann freaks out and unlocks the door and runs back home. She pulls out her key and tries to open the door, but it won’t open, so she tries to go to the garage to open it that way, but while she walks towards it she finds the first window she locked was open, so she went through the window and was shocked that someone else had the code for the garage, a house key, or was to be back home until next week.
All of a sudden, Meaghann heard a noise. Then she heard it again. (Chink… chink…chink…) Meaghann thinks about if she should leave or not, but she decides not to leave. Instead she goes towards the living room where the noise was coming from, Meaghann is going downstairs hoping that she will not die. Finally when Meaghann gets to the bottom of the stairs, she hears one last (chink) then a (thump). Something rolled toward her feet. When it stopped, she turned on the lights, when she looked down Meaghann screamed because she saw Shelby’s head oozing blood from what used to be her neck, right beside her foot. Meaghann looked around the room; no one was in sight, not even Shelby’s body.
Meaghann started running towards the door, but then she stopped. She saw something on the kitchen wall. Meaghann went towards the wall to read it, it says Turn Around, so when she did she saw Shelby’s body headless with words on the wall made out of her blood. When Meaghann read what was on the wall she really got scared. The wall had the words “You’re Next.” on it.


CHAPTER 2


Meaghann didn’t know where to go so she just ran back to the high school .Then all of a sudden she bumped into Brianna. Brianna asked, “Where’s Shelby?” so Meaghann replies as strongly as she can “She is dead. Her head was cut off – Hey Bri, let’s go to your house it’s probably safe there,” Meaghann said, wishing this was just a dream. “Okay, let’s run there,” Bri said, hoping that this was just a dream too.
Finally, when Meaghann and Brianna get there and look up, they see Caitlyn frozen stone. Then Meaghann blurts out, “Something moved around the corner of the house!” Then from around the corner of the house, came Adam and Mat. Adam is wearing a hockey mask and holding a chainsaw, Mat on the other hand is an evil wizard. Thankfully Mat and Adam stopped halfway to argue about who is killing who.
Brianna and Meaghann ran for their lives when Brianna said “Where are we running to?” and Meaghann replied “we are running to the church were there are people.” Meaghann said not looking back at Brianna.
When Meaghann and Brianna got to the church they didn’t know if they should run and scream in terror or try and hide somewhere else or just sit and do nothing. Then out of nowhere came a red beam glowing massively in the dark night coming straight at Brianna and Meaghann. So the two girls ducked and the beam barely missed their heads and hit one of the petrified people who was actually their 5th grade teacher, Mr.Hammel. “Girls what is going on here?” Mr.Hammel said stretching himself back to a comfortable position, since he was stone for so many hours. “Well we are being attacked by two boys, Mat who is an evil wizard, and Adam who has a chainsaw.” Brianna said in a tone were you know something bad was going to happen. “Well Adam I can handle but I don’t know if my powers can handle mat.” Mr.Hammel said not looking at the girls hoping that they didn’t hear him say “my powers” but then, “WHAT????” Brianna and Meaghann said at the same time shocked to hear “my powers”
“Yes I have magical powers, and for I am a good wizard and will try not to fail you.” Mr.Hammel said bravely. Then Mr.Hammel whispered “shh, shh be quiet and do as I say.” The girls looked at each-other thinking that Mr.Hammel probably had sonic hearing or something but then their thoughts were interrupted by Mr.Hammel saying something like gibberish “let us three let us be, by the power within me turn us all into a mouse!”
Then all three of them turned into mice and then scattered their little mouse feet into a mouse hole, and then right after they got all the way to the back of the hole, Meaghann said “Mr.Hammel when are we going to stop being mice, I’m getting dirt on my paws… uh I mean hands.” “We will change back after Mat and Adam pass, the mouse hole which will be any second now.” Mr.Hammel replied as all three of them heard what was to them a loud “thump” but to us a mere stomp.
Then all three of them got really quiet and saw a really muddy shoe pass the mouse hole and then the girls went closer to the hole to hear Mat say “Once I find those girls I’m going to kill them and then I am going to let ……..eat them!” Then both boys chuckled evilly and then Mr.Hammel waited a moment and then motioned the girls towards him as he left the mouse hole.
Once the girls caught up with Mr.Hammel he said “Tick tock our time is done.” Then all three of them turned back into humans and Mr.Hammel started searching threw his jean pockets and then took out a pair of shiny keys and started walking up to a baby blue door. “Chick” the door was opened and the girls thought that the door had never been opened before be cause when they turned around to close the door they saw so many spider webs and spiders that they turned around so fast Brianna lost her balance and fell to the ground while Meaghann was trying to hold back a breakout of laughter. “That was not funny Meaghann.” Brianna said getting up off the floor. Meaghann opened her mouth to reply but Mr.Hammel called them to the living room or what seemed to the girls a party room. “Yes Mr.Hammel?” both of the girls replied. “You may keep yourselves comfortable I do not think that the boys will come looking for you here.”
Then Meaghann asked “Mr.Hammel is this you house?”
“Why yes it is,” he replied.
“Hey Mr.Hammel can we go have a look up stairs?” Brianna said with a puppy dog pout on her face. “Oh alright you can just don’t look out any windows the boys may use them as an opportunity,” Mr.Hammel replied, disappointed in himself for giving in so easy.
The two girls started walking up what was a zone of pictures but also a hallway then they finally reached the top and saw several doors all painted a different color. They agreed to into the room that had the hot pink door but all they found was a really large computer room with five computers and three laptops. So they went to the room with the purple door and saw that it was an exercise room, then they went and saw Mr.Hammel’s bedroom which they left immediately because his wife was sleeping in there so they check all the other rooms but only one of them caught there eyes. It was a chocolate brown room that was really cozy and had one huge window that was so tempting to look out but the girls had remembered what Mr.Hammel had said, so they didn’t look out but then Meaghann had changed her mind about what Mr.Hammel had said and decided to look out the window anyway.
Then when Meaghann barely touched the curtain Brianna said “Meaghann what are you doing Mr.Hammel said to not look out the window because the boys may use it as an opportunity.” “Oh well, I’m going to look out it any ways and I don’t care if Mr.Hammel gets mad at me because what is he going to do? Call my parents while they are away with my sister in France?” Meaghann snapped back at Brianna. Then Meaghann and Brianna both looked out the window and saw that the boys were coming right up to the front door, so both of the girls ran down the stairs as fast and as quietly as they could so the boys would not hear them. Then “Ding Dong” the doorbell rang and the girls hid around the corner as Mr.Hammel said “One Second.” While he was getting a candy bowl as if he knew that it was the boys and was only pretending that he didn’t.
Then he answered the door and said “Why hello boys what are your names?” Mr.Hammel asked politely holding the orange candy bowl in his hands.
“I’m Mat, this is Adam and that is Austin.” Mat said not blinking one bit.
“Well here you go Mat, Adam, and Austin have a piece of candy.” Mr.Hammel replied.
“Um I don’t like candy,” Austin said as Mat nudged him in the elbow.
“Well then what do you want Austin?” Mr.Hammel asked in a tone where the girls knew that something bad was about to happen.
“I want your eyeballs!”
“Oh sorry I don’t have anymore gummy eyeballs.”
“Oh no I really do mean your eyeballs!” Austin shouted.
“Well sorry I’m keeping those I need them.” Mr.Hammel said starting to walk backwards towards the girls.
“Well to bad Mr.Hammelton the crow must eat sometime and we know the girls are up stairs hiding probably in a closet or something.” Mat said in a harsh tone that made the girls jump.
Then Austin turned into gigantic crow that started diving towards Mr.Hammel, the next thing the girls knew was that they heard “no, no, no!” from both Mr.Hammel and his wife.
So the girls started walking then running out the back door that was already open till they reached the police station and asked for some helpful people who weren’t afraid to die.
