One morning, a family of triplets named Nikka, Nora, and Nova, were up super early. The triplets were getting ready for the ternimate they were supposed to be on that day. Nikka, Nova and Nora all played volleyball since they were in 3rd grade. They all had made it to the nationals and surprisingly going up against the team of the triplets middle school bullies, the Blackout Ravens. The Blackout Ravens were famous for being a very pretty and good team of players. But not only were they popular, the triplets were popular too! They’re name was the Fallout Angels. Known for being very flexible and elegant when it came to volleyball.

After getting ready, they all eat something then get in the car as they are off to the game. As they were on their way, Nikka started feeling nervous as the game wasn’t just a few people, but thousands. Nova comforted her and told her “as long as we stay together and follow the rules, everything will be okay”. Nora said “Most importantly we gotta have fun”. They finally arrived at the game.

The car ride there was filled with stress and fear of not winning. Nikka was getting very nervous as they made their way to the game. They all talked so that they could get thing soff their mind so they don’t panic during the game.

The triplets go into the gym and start warming up with bumping, setting, and spiking the ball on the court. Soon, The team Blackout Ravens arrive. As they walk in, they stare at the triplets with a muggy look on their faces. As they did that they started warming up. The triplets ignore them as all they care about is having fun and possibly winning the competition. They warm up for a bit as the alarm for them to start getting into their positions for the start of the game.

The first game starts. The triplets get the first serve and as Nikka serves, she hits the ball hard, getting past the net for the first round. As the ball gets pasted back and forth, the final hit was by Chloe, the leader of Blackout Ravens. The ball got passed back and forth for the rest of the rounds until the final round came. They finally settled around their teams but as they did the Fallout Angels noticed that the Blackout Ravens were cheating by talking with the coach and calling the Fallout Angels plays fouls even if they weren’t. The triplets made a plan to play so good that the audience would even notice it wasn’t a foul. Once they started playing all of the Fallout Angels played great and when the Blackout Ravens weren’t looking, Nikka spiked the ball and as the time went off, The Fallout Angels won. The coach looked at the other team with surprise and anger. The coach went over to the director of the game and started yelling because he was planning to make the other team win but the other team won, meaning he wouldn’t get the money he was offered. The game director kicked him out and told him he was banned from the games and was no longer allowed to be a coach. As the coach was kicked out, the other team came up to the winning team and tried taking the winning trophy.

As Chloe took the trophy, she slammed it against the ground and had a tantrum. She was kicked along with the other team players. As they were kicked, the fallout angels were put on the news and were asked if they had any tactics to winning the game. As all the reporters swarmed them, all the sisters said they came to have fun and play good. The reporters nodded and left as they got into their car.

Months went by since that game and the girls were ironically known for that one game since so much went down that day. The triplets lived in LA, playing many more games of volleyball and telling the story of that one game. The triplets went to many games after that and became famous and rich and started playing even more.  They lived in LA the rest of her life and had a great time doing it with all of them they loved volleyball since they where little an happy it became a hobby that they loved and cared so much about so they played for the rest of their life.

Dead Man Called Bob

A Dead Man Called Bob                                            By: MR. Pineapple

Bob was an American football player for the Baltimore Ravens, he was an offensive lineman. Everyone in the city adored Bob because of his fame. Bob has a family, a wife, two daughters, and a son. He’s had a perfect life but it all came downhill one night after the Ravens were playing against the Packers.

Bob said

” What else could go wrong?”

Bob was driving home from the game when somebody shot his tires and shot Bob in the head. 

“Help me,” 

Bob said. Bob lay lifelessly on the ground while his soul left his body. Over time Bob’s family ended up moving houses just in the morning. Bob’s soul had stayed in his home. Somebody had moved into his home and Bob was not happy about it at all he was gonna do everything to get them out no matter what!

 Danielle

    Danielle had just found a home on White Street. It was a pretty decent home with a balcony, just what she had wanted. Danielle had a bad feeling about it, though. Right when she walked through the door, there was a breeze, as if it was windy, but the wind wasn’t even there. It was as if she had walked through a person, but that couldn’t happen, could it?   She had thought about it.

” No this can’t be happening, I must be dreaming,” she said.  

 That night when she was heading to bed, an awful smell came from the bedroom.

” Ugh what’s that disgusting smell, I’m about to gag,” she said. She also noticed that all her clocks stopped at 3:07 a.m.

Bob 

When Danielle had moved in, Bob had spread a terrible smell throughout the house, but, of course, it didn’t work.” 

She may not be reacting now, but she will later,”

 he said with a grin. Bob had tried scratching noises, but all that did was make her gasp. Later that night, Bob started pulling her legs and blanket, and she SCREAMED.  Then an idea hit Bob so hard that he almost had his pants fall off but ghosts don’t have pants, do they?  Bob’s idea was that when she had family coming over, he would create a scene in front of them and make it where her family doesn’t believe her at all and then possess her, and then her family will believe her but she will always be gone.

 “This is such a good idea.”He said

In reply 

“But this isn’t the Bob I know,” He replied.

Danielle,

“This house is so creepy”, she said “ Maybe I should ask Mama?” She replied. 

Danielle was going to ask her momma if she would come over to see what happened, but she didn’t know that Bob would make it and that nothing would happen while her mom was there. Danielle called her momma and said 

“s

       “ Momma, you need to come. I’m scared. Help me,” she said. “Okay, sweetie, I’ll come, but it better be worth my while.,    ” she said. Trust me, momma, it will.”

When Danielle’s mom got there nothing happened,

“Honey, nothing is bad here, it’s perfect.” She said,

“Mom, I swear I got pulled in the legs, scratched, and my hair pulled,” Danielle said. 

“Sweetheart, I believe you but, nothing’s happening,” Mom said

Bob, 

As soon as Danielle’s mom got there, Bob made it seem like nothing was wrong. It made it seem like nothing was wrong with that house. However, Bob didn’t want to possess her, only because that would take a lot of energy. Of course he wanted to get her out, but he’s running out of ideas. 

“ I really need to get her out without possessing her, hmmmm, maybe just keep trying to scare her out.” Bob said 

Bob had waited till her mother had left to start scaring her only then she couldn’t get her mother to believe her. If Danielle’s mother had seen what was going on and would have stayed.

 “ I need to try harder.” Bob had said

Bob had tried to start rattling her bed and shaking her bed to frighten her but nothing happened.

Danielle

        “ Nothing had happened when momma was here.” Danielle had said. 

Danielle had thought to herself “ Maybe I need to stand my ground?” Danielle said. If Danielle had stood her ground maybe whatever this was would stop. As soon as Danielle had got home from work she had started making signs that she was going to keep her ground. It had seemed like this spirit and knew what she was doing so he stopped kinda as soon as he got the message. 

BOB

Bob had noticed what she was trying to do so Bob got the message and gave up. Bob decided to give up. 

 “ I don’t even know why I had tried, I knew someone was going to end up moving in. I feel bad.” Bob said.

 Bob had decided to make himself shown and say he was sorry to Danielle and say why he did this to her. 

Danielle had gasped when she saw Bob and asked why he had been doing this to her. 

“Why are you doing this to me, what did I do to deserve this.” Danielle had asked 

“ I don’t know, I guess I had gotten mad when I saw someone had moved into my home. I am so sorry. I just didn’t want anyone moving into my home.”

“It’s okay, I understand how you feel, I would probably feel the same way if I saw somebody had moved into my home too.” Danielle had replied 

“But this is over right?.” Danielle had asked 

“Yes this is over, I’ll even tell you what, I will watch over you  and protect you.” Bob said

“What happened to you?” Danielle asked

 “Someone had shot me, leaving me where I was as I died and my soul came here when I had passed.” Bob said

“ Well I guess thank you for apologizing to me and have a good life Bob.” Danielle said

The Nerd and the Jock

By Nana Davis  

“You’ve been staring at number 27,” Nila and Nela says 

“Is that?” Nele says

“NEL!” Nila says

“NO!! It’s not him. Is it?” I say

“It is, girl,” Nela says

The cheerleaders returned to cheering. I was with my friends Nela and Nila at the football game. I’m not that popular, but I have a crush on Nel, the most popular guy, and number twenty-seven. 

I was sitting with the cheerleaders because Nila is the cheer captain. I looked at the ground, embarrassed, as the game started again, and my attention returned to Nel. The cheerleaders returned to cheering. After the game, I stayed seated, but Nela and Nila didn’t like that.

“Come on go talk to Nel~,” Nila says in a teasing tone

“No, I shouldn’t,” I say

“Come on,” Nela says in a whiny voice

I reluctantly get up, and they push me toward Nel. Then I see Tammy talking to Nel. Tammy is the most popular girl. Every guy has a crush on her, but she’s a big bully. She’s done so much to my friends and me. But Nel sees me as I try to turn around and walk away, and he comes over to me. I try to turn around and run, but Nel grabs my hand.

“Hey,” Nel says

“Hi’ i say flustered

“Come with me,” Nel says

“Fine,” I say.

Nel pulls me under the bleachers and leans against a pole for the bleachers.

“So……… there’s an after party……. Do you want to come with me?” Nel says as he lets go of my hand but hesitates like he doesn’t want to. 

“Me, come with you?” I mumble but Nel hears me 

“Yes, you Jena come with me,” he says itching the back of his neck

“Ok,” I say

“You’ll come!” Nel says

“Just one question,” I say

“What is it,” Nel says

“Did you invite me as a friend or?” I say

“Uuumm” Nel says “No not really, I guess,” he says unsure of himself

“Do I need to change?” I replied

“No, unless you want to,” he says

“I’ll be there,” I replied. I start to walk off

“See you there,” Nel says and I nod

“See you,” I say

Nel grabs my hand and says 

“Unless you want to catch a ride…. with me?” 

“If that’s ok with you,” I say, smiling and he takes my hand. We start walking to his car. He opens the door for me and I get in and I go to buckle but then Nel says. 

“Let me get that for you” as he takes the buckle and buckles it for me. Then he walks around to the driver’s seat and I see my friends watching. As I look at the floor embarrassed. Nel sees that I’m embarrassed and says

“Look at me” I look up as his eyes lock on mine, then I blush and look down again. Nel sees me blushing and says,

“You’re cute when you blush” I blush more. As Nel stops at the party and holds my chin and pulls my head up to look at him. Then I blush more. Nel asks

“Are you ok, princess” I blush again and he kisses my cheek then I blush more.

“Sorry I should have asked” I quickly stop him and say

“No!” I look down “Don’t apologize” The other football players see Nel and me and come over to his car and say

“You finally asked her, well you two do look good together,” number 10 says

“So what do you think of Nel here,” number 77 says.

“He’s a nice kind,” I say blushing “he sticks out on the field.” The guys chuckle as they realize Nel is blushing two and I  giggle a bit myself.  Nel seems embarrassed as he steps out of the car and opens the door for me I unbuckle and he holds my hand to help me get out of his car. The other players walk around us as we walk into the party. As we walk in there’s an announcement that says excitedly 

“The main couple is here!!!!!!!!!!!!”

My eyes widen as my face goes red. Nel squeezes my hand and looks at me worried. I cling to his side embarrassed. He wrapped his arms around my waist as if to protect me from the people whispering and staring.

“Hey, it’s ok,” Nel says 

I hid` my face in his chest. Tammy sees this and walks over.

“Baby, Nelie poo” she squeaks 

“Dont call me that ever,” nel says  

I snuggle closer, he pulls me away and Tammy gets mad as nel and I go over to the balcony where a full moon, bright stars, and constellations can be seen. As I’m leaning over the rales looking at the sky I turn to point at a star and nel has my favorite flowers daises and roses he clears his throat awkwardly.

“Will you be my girlfriend?” he says

I see Tammy scowling at me and I look back, I’m too shocked to speak and I just nod violently and hug him. After that Nel and I watched the sky for a long time then one of his friends came over.

“Hey, love birds,” his friend says “What are you two up to,”

Nel and I look over at him and shrug.

“The romantic dance for couples is next,” number 71 says

Nel and I get up walk in go on the dance floor and start dancing with the other couples. And he and I stand out because we both have on our clothes from the game. Everyone is looking at us as we dance to the music even Tammy is staring. I know tomorrow at school she will be mad and try something but I’m focusing on my footwork as nel and I dance. At the end of the song, everyone claps for nel and me. And I realize I’m popular now. And more popular than Tammy and she is mad because I found a bf before her and now is more popular than her. My friends Nela and Nila ran over asking a lot of questions.

“Is nel your bf now?” Nila says 

“Wait can you get us with some of his friends, please,” Nela says

“Hold up wait a couple of days maybe sometime this month,” I say kindly

Nel chuckles still holding my waist from dancing as I lean against his chest. After the party, Nel drives me home and as I get out he kisses my hand. Then I kissed his cheek two times. Then he walked me to my door and introduced himself to my family and my parents loved him and praised him. After he stayed for lunch he left and went to his house and I thought what will Tammy do to me tomorrow I thought before I went to sleep. In the morning after I was ready. Nel picks me up for school and carries me, the bride still kisses my cheeks and then blushes.

The Roomers

By Dr Smart

 I have blood cancer and I’ve had it since I was a baby. I’ve had treatments and I’m doing well right now. I have 3 amazing friends who have helped me this whole time. Currently, I’m at a basketball game that they dragged me to. I’ve always wanted to join but because of my blood cancer, I can’t I have no time and my body can’t handle it yet. I’m determined to overcome this and fulfill my dreams. 

“Rosa…” 

I won’t let anything stop me! 

“Rosa”

… from doing what I want or living my life the way I want to… not even my cancer! 

“Rosa!”

“Sorry Tom wait what happened”

“Oh, Rosa, when will you get out of your head? You can’t live in a dream world forever…”

That’s Tom. He’s one of my friends. Tom continued with his Lexshier for ten more minutes with no breaks. Tom has a short buzzcut and brown hair that he dies and lets grow out. By the end of the year, it’s so long it goes to his shoulder, and he repeats the process every year. It’s his look, you could say.

“HEY GUYS!!!”

That girl screaming and running over to me and Tom is my other friend Bella She is sweet and has short blond hair and she is the shortest in our friend group so we help her reach stuff all the time  

“Hey Bella,” I say

  “Hi Bella we saved you a sit. Rosa and I know you’re never on time. you know that’s a bad habit you should have come earlier you always come late to everything. Also, did you see Mary?” Tom says

“Oh no I sadly didn’t see Mary I thought she was with you guys,”

 Bella says as she sits down on the bleachers next to me and Tom.

A few minutes after when all 3 of us were watching the basketball game Mary scars Tom and sits down next to him.

“MARY!” Tom screams 

“Hehe hi, guys sorry I’m late,” 

Mary says as she snickers and looks at us. Mary loves scarring Tom and only Tom for some reason won’t tell us why. we’ve asked before and she only laughs at the question like we should know why already and it’s a silly question. Marry has long well-taken care of black hair almost like a horse she is cold and silly at the same time she is also smart and Marry is my bff she’s also the smartest in the class. As the others talk and mess around all I can think about is how badly I wish I could play too but all I can do is watch the basketball game. I suddenly felt like something was over me and as I looked up I saw it was Gavin, Becka, and Regina. then Gavin pours his water bottle on me and I hear Becka and Regina giggle as I run to the bathroom to clean myself off once I get into the bathroom shortly after Tom’ Bella and Mary follow. Tom sits outside the bathroom to keep watch for them again, but also because he’s a boy and can’t come in.

“Hey, are you ok?” Bella says

“…” I respond with nothing

“Rosa don’t let them get to you they’re losers,” says Mary

“How do you think I feel and does it look like I’m ok how do you expect me to just be fine with this and not let it get to me just leave!” I say in a fit of anger

 “Ok we’ll leave but when you’re ready we’ll be waiting outside the bathroom for you,” Mary says 

“Just leave now!” I say as Mary and Bella both leave. Mary has always been good with handly emotions and her own too she always knows what to do and how to help and Bella is the same way she helps by being there and with her bubbly personality. As I leave the bathroom I see that they are still here Tom, Mary, and Bella sitting outside the bathroom and waiting for me

“Hey I see you decided to come out,” Tom says happily

“Let’s forget about this bad day and all get home I’ll see you guys Monday,” Mary says

“Hey now let’s not end the day bad! let’s get some ice cream at the new place in town and then go home!” Bella says

“Bella I know you are trying to help but it’s best if we go home it’s already so late,” Mary says

“Ok let’s go home,” Tom says

As we all walk out of the school I can’t help but feel like I wish I never had to return. We all walk our separate ways to go home. “Hey Mom I’m back from the game where Dad,” I say

“Your dad’s in the living room dinner will be done soon” 

“Hey Dad I’m back”

“Oh hey there Rosa you snuck up on me,” Dad says

“I’m going up to my room I’m way to tired from watching the game”

  After that Monday the gang hung out one time after the basketball game.

I woke up and did my routine and as I was doing my makeup and about to leave for school my elbo hurt every time I moved then I felt like I couldn’t get up it was like I was too weak to move Mom came running into my room and then it goes black I open my eyes to a hospital room I’m used to them from the mounts ive spent in them and the doctor comes in and tells my mom that my blood cancer achaly got worse and not beter like they thought and i would have to leave school for a few days for testing and other stuff and someone from my school would have to bring me my work. The person I chose to get me my work was Mary she would come every Monday with the work for that week she always came after school at 4:30 like clockwork I was slowly falling behind in school I couldn’t keep up with all the testing the hospital was doing and schooling so my parents got me a tour and it was tom and then Bella came with both of them sometimes

I was starting to czech up on school becus of them but I didn’t start getting better

Soon i was stuck in my hospital bed and could only move arond a little Tom came to help tour me one time with Mary and Bella and we were working and then

“Hey Rosa where all worried about you,” Tom said out of the blue

 “Have the doctors said anything about you getting better soon?” Bella said

“No, they said it didn’t look like I was going to get any better”

“How long do you have,” Mary said

‘MARY!” Tom yelled

“Mary dont go asking those questions…” bellas said

“This is not something you can’t be cold about you can’t act like you did last time when we found out she got cancer”

“Bella stop”

“Huh?” Bella said

“I don’t have very long i only have 2 more days i was trying to hide it from you the doctors told me a week after I got in here that I didn’t have much time”

“Well lets make thous two days the best ever well bring you stuff from your hospodal bed and will do anything to make you happy one last time,” Mary said

By the time they were done, it was night so they all went home that same night I went to bed like usual and I never woke up again I was dead a ghost I saw what everyone did the next morning Mom was crying by me in bed and dad was also crying next to here and when tom Bella and mary saw me they all started to cry too many ran out the room and said it wasn’t real that it was all in her head and Bella ran after her and tom he froze up he didn’t know what to do he just cried 

“This isn’t real,” Mary said 

“Mary it’s ok let’s just go home first let’s get Tom,” Bella said

“This isnt fair they could have done more to save her we were all just talking last night she was fine we were going to go all do something to make her happy one last time,” Tom said

I wanted to hug him and tell him it was fine and just forget about me and keep living without me but I felt I was a ghost

“Let’s just go come on guys”

Later on, Mary became a schoolteacher

Tom became a doctor

And Bella became a scientists

And Mom and Dad lived out their life without me happy 

This was the good ending I wanted for them after my death but I wish I could be there for them still…

  – By Payton Brown

  I walked into school and saw my friends with a poster in the halls. It looked like a concert was happening because of how many girls were there. It was a volleyball sign up sheet so I decided to sign up. Not knowing what would happen next. The next day that’s when it all happened I was walking into the gym and everyone was warming up. As I put my stuff down, that’s when I hear them “shh” shh” shh” and murmuring. Behind me I feel all their glances at me. I try to ignore it because I tried to feel positive that day. As I am done warming up I start walking towards my friend. She told me that 

“you shouldn’t be playing right you aren’t even good”

 I ran out trying so hard not to cry and embarrassed myself but I couldn’t help it I started crying but as soon as I wipe tears the coach asked me

“What is wrong”

I told her what happen and she said  

“You cant let them get  to you,you are here to play volleyball and here to get that off your chest”

But I don’t know how I’m going to play 

“I’m just so upset”

But she made me get up and practice as I got up to walk in to practice we did leg/arm stretches. Then I had to get a partner. We bumped it back and forth then setted. As we finished up, we got in three lines and I fell on my knees  and became the laughing stock.  the coach told everyone to keep practicing and helped me up and made sure I was okay the practice that day was horrible 

The following week and a lot more happened. We have a game coming up and the whole school already hates me. But the coach’s words kept playing in my head. I knew I had to keep moving past it. But as we are on the bus a girl who I played with came up to me and asked

“Hey, I know we don’t talk much but why are you sitting by yourself”

“I dont know I’m not really friends with anyone here dont I play with you on the court” 

“ yeah I play setting, Sofia is my name but I’d love to be your friend”

 “The setter? Oh yeah the setter my name is Payton and yeah we can be friends”  

She sat next to me the rest of the time  and talked to me but I didn’t know if I was supposed  to feel happy that there was a girl that actually felt genuine and actually wanted to be my friend . I really didn’t know what I was feeling. I was happy I had a friend. I was scared of the game and I was sad because really no one likes me. As we get to game and were putting are stuff on I hear the girls talking about me but I walked away a little upset because I knew exactly what they were talking about I get on the court and I remember everything that made me even more mad and upset and I actually play a lot better than I thought and I could hear everyone whispering but this time in a good way the coach started putting me on the court a lot more I said 

“Thank you coach” 

“Why you thanking me that was all you” 

“No I wouldn’t of even been play if you didn’t talk to me that day”

“Oh no problem, you get up your good work ” 

As we were on the bus back home the girl who was my friend came up to me and said.

“Hey, you did good out there and I am sorry for what I said.”

But I didn’t know what I wanted to say but words just started coming out of my mouth

“Thanks but you are not sorry because if you were you wouldn’t have said it.”

Then I went to another seat. I finally felt like I was good at something I mean I was. 

As I walked home my mom met me at the door and I was in the newspaper and I felt like everyone liked me. I didn’t just feel like a nobody. I walked into school and everyone was by me and asking  me how I did it but I had no comment but the truth is I would rather go back to having no one like me because I knew who my real friend was.

Bad Luck

Bad Luck 

  • By Bay Max 

“Does anybody have a hairbrush”

“I do”

“Can I please use it”

“Guys I’m scared what if I lose all my matches” 

“You won’t, don’t worry”,

Is what you would hear in the locker room full of girls that is about to go wrestle well not in my case. Everyone is so calm and not worried, like this is another old dandy meet to get over with. As I was putting on my singlet everyone was ready to go . I’m brushing my hair as my cousin was waiting to braid it . That was the start of my tradition, the braid that helps me in each match like Jason’s lucky sock. This was just the start of my goodluck routine. Everygame , everymatch , and every meet my hair is always in a braid and today was nothing different or so I thought. 

For some reason today wasn’t feeling like another old dandy meet. After we were done I slid on my crocs  and walked out the locker room soon realising my mom forgot to give me my money for the game . Well great, how am I gonna eat? And that was what I thought started my bad journey or so I thought my bad luck. I try not to think about it and just continue walking towards the bus. I walk in to see the majority of the girls in the bus as I walk down the aisle to my seat. Boom, the person in front of me sits right in it . You might not know but that has been my seat for every meet every game I’ve ever went to. I thought of it as my lucky charm seat. Then I had to sit and wait for the best, knowing I’m probably not gonna eat and not gonna have a good meet. We get there after 40 ish minutes and the girls are quiet . I see as their eyes widen at the shock of how big the school is. The girls were already threatened by how big the school was , yes the same girls that were pumped and ready to get over this meet. We unload the bus and we all walk out. We can see the buses of the other schools that came to compete today. We walk in and go to our station we set are stuff down ready to explore as we had came 2 hours earlier to scope out the competition “

“Okay” “It’s okay “ “I’ve got two hours to gain all this back

I’m watching everyone watching their strategies and moves just hoping I could do the same. As I watch people get taken down over and over and over again . I’m starting to regain my confidence . The screams of 

“Get up”   and 

“Lock your hands”

“You got this”

Just gets me pumped. 

My coach said behind me

“ guys start getting ready”

So me and the girls start walking back to where we set our bags as we see the gym filled with girls and parents from all over. As I take off my clothes that was over my singlet and start unzipping my bag I hear my couch say

“You’re up” 

“Okay”

He pats my back for assurance I reach in to find NOTHING absolutely nothing. None of my gear was in my bag. Where’s my shoes? Where’s my headgear? Where’s my kneepad? I knew this bad luck would come back and bite me in the butt. I hear the shattering word 

“What are you doing you’re up”

“IIII……. I know”

I turned around so I couldn’t look at him and just stared into my bag. He comes from behind me to see what was the hold up and he knew he knew that if he didn’t say anything in that moment right now i’m gonna break down. 

“You can’t just forfeit it will cost all your matches”

“I know’ “but what can I do”

I sink in as I see his disappointment on my coach’s face looking for an idea. It’s like everything stops. The front table was waiting for me,my opponent was waiting for me. And the gym was quiet as people were trying to find me. I can hear the table in the front call my name again and again and again and again to see where I was. I can see the faces of people you supposedly found me looked worried. My coach didn’t seem to have an idea.  But all of the sudden my teammate came from behind me, saving me. 

“Here” 

“What?”

“Here take mine and hurry” 

“Your opponent is already on the mat”. 

I don’t know what just happened but I was already on the mat shaking my opponent’s hand. I can tell the difference between my shoes and my teammates but I was just glad I had something to use and the universe was out to get me after all

The Mystery Kill

  The Mystery Kill

      By: Lilly Anne Cooper

One day Serena and her mom were preparing for a football game party. They soon realized they would not have enough food for the party. 

Her mom said,”Go and buy some popcorn from the store. Make sure you get enough for everyone at the party.” 

“OK,” replied Serena,”I will be back.”

  Serena then went to the store while her mom stayed home and finished getting ready for the party. While Serena was in the store she met her friend Blair. 

`“Hi!” said Serena, “How are you?”

“Fine.” Blair responded. “How about you?”

“I am fine, just picking up some popcorn for the party. Will I see you there?”

“ I don’t know yet. I am not feeling the greatest.”

“Aww. Well I hope you feel better. Anyways I have to get going. Bye!”

“Yup,bye.”

Serena then finished getting popcorn from the store and headed home. On her way home she ran into Chuck and his friend group. She hates them. As soon as she saw him she ran the other way and hid in a nearby bush and overheard them talking.

` “I heard Serena is having a party this afternoon. I wonder why we didn’t get invited. I wonder why?” said Chuck.

“Maybe we should crash it.”

“Bro,that’d be fire!!”

“I know right. Does anyone know what time it starts?”

“Umm… I think it starts at 7:00?”

“Ya, that sounds right. Let’s go so we can plan.”

After they left, Serena came out of the bushes and ran home.

As soon as she got home she told her mom what she had heard. 

Her mom told her,”Oh dear! We must not let that happen. I’ll call Chuck’s mother. She can then deal with him”

“OK.” said Serena.

They then continued to get ready for the party.

People then started to show up and Serena turned on the football game. She then went to talk to her friend Blair.

“Hey, Serena!” said Blair.

“Hey! What do you think of the party?”replied Serena.

“It’s pretty nice.”

“Thanks! Hey, if you see Chuck or his gang here let me know please.”

“Why?”

“Because when I was on my way home from the store I heard them saying they were gonna crash the party. When I came home and told my mom she said ‘I’ll call Chuck’s mother. She can then deal with him.’ and I’m hoping that no matter what they don’t show up.”

“Ya, that’s fine. I will let you know if I see them.” 

“Thanks Blair!”

“No problem.” replied Blair.

A while later Chuck and his gang arrived uninvited. Serena went up to Chuck.

“Why are you here Chuck? I heard you from the bushes by the supermarket and how you were gonna crash my party.”

“You were the one who tattled on me to my mom. You will regret that.” replied Chuck.

“I hope you know that if you even attempt to do anything bad I will call the cops.”

“Oh crap,” Chuck said sarcastically,”like that ever stopped me.”

“Yes I know. But I also know how scared you are of your mom.”

“Umm? What are you talking about?” Carrot said nervously.

His mom then arrives.

“CHUCK STEVEN ROGERS!! GET YOURSELF IN MY CAR RIGHT NOW YOUNG MAN!!” yelled Chuck’s mom.

“OK, mom!!”

“Good,” said his mom,”I hope you do.”

After Chuck left, the party moved on and everyone enjoyed themselves. All of the sudden there was yelling and screaming. Serena rushed over to see what all the commotion was about and she saw her best friend Blair lying there dead with a cheese spreader stabbed at her side.

“AAAAH!!!!” Serena screamed. “Mom! Somebody! Call 911!! Hurry!!”

“What? What’s going on?” Serena’s mom said as she called 911.

Paramedics then arrive at the same time as Blair’s parents walk in.

“Oh my!” Blair’s mom said faintly. “Oh dear!!” she said as she fainted.

  A Couple Of Weeks Later

It was now the day her funeral and everyone was wearing all black and were sad and droopy. 

“Serena !! Come on, we have to get going. We’re gonna be late!” said Serena’s mom.

“I’m coming Mom!” Serena said as she ran down stairs to the kitchen.

At the funeral Serena went to find Blair’s parents and she said her condolences.

“I’m so sorry for your loss. I really hope they find who did this.” said Serena.

“You’re the one who did this! You ungrateful spoiled little murderer!!” yelled Blair’s parents.

“I would never do that and you should know  that by now. She was my best friend.” replied Serena as she started sobbing.

After the funeral Serena had to go to the police station and get an interview done.

“Did you tell them everything sweetheart? Even what Blair’s mom said?” Serena’s mom said as she saw Serena leaving the interview room.

“Yes mom. I did.”

“OK, good.” replied her mom.

The next day Serena’s mom got a call from Blair’s mom saying that when she was going through Blair’s room she found a suicidal note in her diary it read,

Dear whoever finds this. I’m sorry. I just couldn’t bear the pain anymore. To prove that I am writing this I will give you date time and how I did this to myself. I did this to myself on November 16, 2017 at about 1:30 PM. You found me lying on my bed with a rope around my neck. I’m so sorry Mom and Dad. On the next page there is another note. I want you to give it to Serena, my dearest friend. Again I’m so sorry. If you want to know why I hid another note in my room somewhere. I will not give away where it is because I want Serena to find it. I hope you forgive me.(: 

Yours truly,

Blair

Serena then realized that Blair planned on killing herself after the party. She had to go find that letter in Blair’s room. She then went to Blair’s house and knocked on the front door. Blair’s father opened the door.

“Come quickly. I don’t want her to find out you were here.” 

“Why?” said Blair.

“Because she hates you!” he said, surprised. “Do you not remember what she said to you at Blair’s funeral?” he asked.

“Yes, I do. And I understand why you want me to hurry. So I will hurry.”

“Have fun then. Er, I don’t really know what to say. Good luck?” He said confused.

“It’s fine.”

She then went to Blair’s room and right away went to look under her bed. There she found an envelope named Serena. Serena then opened it and it read.

Dear Serena, I figured that this would be the first place you would look. You may think that this will tell you why I committed suicide but it’s not. I know that you like mysteries so I put some hint cards around. So here is your first clue.

I’m part of something tall and blue, that is why I chose this clue. I can be soft and fuzzy or or just plain muddy but you should know they keep me warm when I’m in a winter storm.

Serena read the riddle again and again. She then decided to try and figure it out by going piece by piece. She then figured that Blair was probably referring to her dresser in the first sentence. She then tried to think of what was soft and fuzzy. She got it! It was her sock drawer. She ran over and opened the drawer to find another clue.

I’m filled with clothes, but I’m not a drawer, waiting for someone to open my door. 

Serena got it right away; it was her closet. When she opened it, sure enough there was a note.

You figured out the other clues, now I’m in the blues.

Serena I figured this was gonna be a little harder so I am giving you a hint. I go there when I’m sad.P.S. This is the last clue.

Serena thought for a moment and ran to the attic. It was where Blair liked to hang out. Serena knew Blair liked to hide behind all of her stuffed animals that were in the attic when she was sad. So she moved the stuffies and found a lock box, but it was not locked. She opened it and found a letter, Blair’s favorite stuffed animal, some candy and a little wrapped box. Serena decided to open the letter first.

You did it Serena!  Now you are probably wanting to know why I killed myself. So here it is. The reason I did it was because of my mom. She always doubted me and made me do things that I didn’t want to do. Like for example, She tried making me sell my favorite stuffed animal and you know how much I love him that is why I included him in this box. Now please open the present.

Serena listened and opened the present. It was a locket necklace with a picture of her and Blair. When Serena saw it she broke down in tears. She then wiped her eyes, picked up the box of things and headed downstairs. On her way down she stopped in the bathroom and quickly washed her face. As she was washing her face she realized that the party was on the 15 and the letter said it was on the 16. She was confused that maybe she just decided to do it earlier. But she didn’t think that was the case. She took all of the letters to the police station and told them everything that she thought of. The police were very confused and decided to investigate further. 

Friendship & Volleyball

Friendship & Volleyball

By: Billie Hale

This is going to be about friendship and volleyball. My friend and I were at volleyball practice and the coach said that we made it to state. We were all so excited. Later that day I went to my friend’s house and we had a party. Half of the school came. We all had a blast. It was so fun. My friend Millie got mad at me because I have a boyfriend. Millie and I have been bestfriends for a long time so she was a little mad and we joked about being married. We are so close that we tell each other everything.

“Let’s go see your boyfriend” said Millie 

“Ok,” I said

So we went and saw Wyatt, who is my boyfriend. On the way we talked about volleyball and food. When we got there I talked to his mom. She is so sweet. Then we played basketball and volleyball. And then we left to go to volleyball practice. Volleyball practice was interesting. We had normal practice and then we did a lot of conditioning. We were so sore after that.  

“Let’s go to McDonalds” said Millie  

“Ok let’s go” I said 

After that she came to my house we layed in my bed and were talking about volleyball. We were prank calling people and eating our McDonalds. The next day we had school and school was fun. We did nothing in most of our classes because we had a lot of celebrations that day. Later we went to Wyatt’s house and Millie’s crush asked her out  and she said yes. We have been planning this for days. It was so hard not to tell her but I made it through.  Later when we went back to my house she couldn’t stop talking about it.

“How could you keep that from me?” Millie said jokingly.  

“It was really hard not to tell you” I said

So a few days later we did a double date and it was so fun. We went to the movies, got some dinner and hung out at my house. The next day we all hung out again and we had a blast. We played basketball and volleyball. A few days later state volleyball came and we did so well. I ended up injuring myself and I was in a brace for a month. It was not fun, but I did like riding the elevator every day. Every night I get a text from Millie saying can I ride with you in the elevator. I texted back saying yes to go inside and to go to our first class. My boyfriend rides with me, not her. A few days later Millie and I went shopping for volleyball. We found one that we liked and bought it. When we got to her house we ate food because we are big backs. 

“What’s your man up to?” Millie asked

“Going to his dads.” I said, “What’s your man up to Millie?” I asked 

So later when Wyatt got to his dads we facetimed and Millie and Wyatt yelled at each other pretty much the whole time.It was so funny. A few days later we had school. School was boring and I had volleyball practice after school. It was normal there was no conditioning, thank goddess. And then Millie betrayed me and was cheating on her boyfriend with my boyfriend. So i called her boyfriend and said Mille is cheating on you with Wyatt so do you want to get together and make them regret it. 

Riet said “ Ok lets do it”

“Ok bet” I said 

So the next day when  we had school Riet and I came to school together. He picked me up in his blue lamborghini. When we got to school he opened the door for me and we held hands while waking in. Right inside the door was Millie and Wyatt, their jaws dropped. 

“What are you guys doing”Millie yelled 

We smiled at each other and just kept walking past. It was finally time for school to start. Riet and I had the first class together and it was Excel. We sat in the same booth and we were talking the whole time. Millie also was in there and she sat and stared at us the whole time. 

It was the end of the day and Riet took me home. My parents are friends with Riets parent so we grew up together. So our parents are very excited we are together. When we got to my house, Riets parents were there talking with my parents and were enjoying it. They saw us walk in holding hands and they were screaming in excitement. They talked to us the rest of the night and told us how happy they were that we are together. 

It was 11 pm and Riets family went home and before Riet left him and his parents gave us hugs. That was the happiest night of my life.

The Soccer Match

By Alex Robert

The time I woke up was around 7 am to my alarm, I could smell breakfast being made by my mother down stairs. Then I heard my mother calling me from downstairs.  

“David come downstairs and get breakfast”

  Then I groaned as I stood up and went down stairs. As I was going down the stairs I saw my dad watching TV in the living room. 

 When I sat down at the kitchen table my mom handed me pancakes with sausages. While I’m eating I see my sister coming down the stairs with her dog. Then my sister grabbed the dog leash and her shoes and was about to take the dog for a walk. 

After she left I finished my food then my mom asked if i wanted to go to the store after my soccer match.

“Sure mom that sounds fun,” David said.

 Then after David finishes his food he gets up and gets ready for soccer practice, as i was about to leave my mom says “Don’t be too late home”                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

As I walk to soccer practice I see one of my friends. I walked towards them and they were going to soccer practice too. When we got to soccer practice we put on our equipment and got ready for soccer practice. 

When we were ready I walked to my coach and asked him what we are going to be doing today. The coach said 

“we are just going to see how far you can kick the ball and how good your accuracy is” the coach said

I say ok and then wait till we start. When we did start I did the second best but my friend did better than me by a hair. When we were done with practice I had to go home because I didn’t want to be late when I was walking home. I remembered that I had a game coming up but I got a couple days, I said as I walked home. When I did get home, dinner was ready. I was almost late but I made it in time. I sat down at the dinner table and saw my sister, dad and mom waiting. We were going to be eating pizza. When i sat down my dad asked me something

“So how was practice today” dad says

“It was good but my friend beat my by a hair” david said

“You should practice to beat him then” dad says

“Oh no yeah for sure I will” david says

When I was done eating dinner I had to go to bed so I could practice soccer tomorrow. When I woke up to my alarm I had to get ready for school. First I brushed my teeth then I got my backpack ready by making my lunch and eating breakfast. When I got done with my breakfast I grabbed my stuff and went to the bus stop. After i wanted for the bus i saw my friend walking towards the bus, 

“Yo why are you riding the bus today aren’t you driving to school?” david says

“Well my mom needed to go to work and my dad was still asleep so i had to take the bus” david’s friend says

“Oh well i guess you can sit next to me because the bus is kinda crazy” david says

“Wait how crazy?” david’s friend says

“Oh you’ll see” david says while snickering 

When they got on the bus David saw an open seat they went to but a pen went through the air and almost hit them, but it hit the ground as they sat down people were screaming and the bus was shaking alot. While it took a while but we made it to the school as we got of we saw someone trip because someone pushed someone into him but he ignored him and kept walking as me and my friend got of the bus we had to wait outside the school because we came to early as the school doors opened we went inside then i remember that i forgot to practice last night. As the day went on the thought of me not being able to play correctly was stuck in my head as the day ended and i went to the soccer field and got ready for my game, this was the only time i could practice and i did my best i didn’t miss a single goal in practice as practice was ending i saw the other team i was going to play against walking towards the field as we were getting ready to start my friend had to go answer a call he was getting from someone then our coach called us over so we can get in our positions we were ready and my friend was right next to me. Our coach blew the whistle as i ran for the ball the other team got it i stayed next to there goal so i could get passed the ball then i got the chance the ball was going towards me and i kicked it and i see the ball go through a group of the other team and come out from the other side then to there goal it was about to be caught but then it curved to the right and went it the goal and we won as i ran to my team we all huddled together and i was getting carried by them they carried me to the benches and sat me down as i was drinking the other team came over and said

“So you think your good huh” one of the other team members say

“No not really i’m just happy i got the goal” david says

“Just wait till we get to go against you again you will lose horribly” the other teams member says

“I sure do not believe it for us to lose” david say

“Oh you’ll see” the other member says

 Will I Find Her?

Author: Kannie Kj

On September 1st in Miami Florida Maria and Sasha, two best friends, are so excited to start school volleyball. They have been playing with each other for years now, and this is their Junior year of highschool. Tryouts start after school today, Maria is feeling good about tryouts and sure she will make it to varsity like every other year, but Sasha on the other hand wasn’t feeling so good about tryouts this year.

 Maria tries making her feel better, “hey, are you feeling any better about tryouts after school,” said Maria.

 “Not really,” said Sasha.

 “I don’t know why your so worried, we always make it on the team,”

“ I know Maria, but this year just feels different and there’s so many more girls this year that i might not make it.” 

“Oh, come on you can’t think like that just be the confident person like you always are.” 

Sasha Nodded her head and gave Maria a smile that looked faked, then she left for her last class of the day.                                 

The last class of the day was coming to an end and Maria was so happy to finally be on the court after the summer break that felt so long to her,  she rushed to the locker room to put on her shoes, knee pads etc. She waits in the locker room for Sasha. It’s been some time and all the other girls are in the gym by now and it was only her in the locker room so she decided to go without sasha. Tryouts started and there were a lot of people, a lot more than last year. The tryouts start with serving and Maria tries to find Sasha but no luck, She’s starting to think she didn’t come at all. The volleyball coach already knows Maria since she was on the team previous years. The coach already knew Maria would make it, but she is worried about why Sasha isn’t there.

 She calls Maria to ask why Sasha didn’t make it to tryouts, “Maria! Come over here,”said coach Gabby.

Maria runs over quickly, “yes coach gabby,” Said Maria.

“Where is Sasha, she’s not the type of girl to be late to tryouts,”

“Uh, I’m not sure, she didn’t tell me anything about what she is doing after school.”

“Oh don’t pull that with me, you to are like glued together and always know where the other one is”

“I don’t know where she is,” said Maria “i’m telling you the truth”

Coach replies “Are you covering for her?” “did she doing something bad”

  “Nope’

“Hmm okay just go back to tryouts”

She returns to tryouts while Coach Gabby gives Sasha’s mom a call. Sasha’s mom, Vannessa, answered. Coach Gabby asks if Sasha was going to come to tryouts, Vanessa said she thought she was already there…

After coach and Sasha talk about what they are going to do Coach hangs up the phone. She tells the girls that are still playing volleyball that she will be right back, Maria is guessing it’s about Sasha. Coach Gabby rushes to the office to ask if anyone is still in the school, The office lady replies, 

“Nope just the girls for volleyball tryouts, why is something wrong?” 

Coach Gabby says,

 “We might have a student missing.”

 The office lady panics and Coach tells her who the student is and they start making phone calls. Meanwhile in the gym, all Maria can think about is how she is gonna have to be on a team for the first time without her best friend Sasha, and now she will have to find a new partner for warm-ups. Coach Gabby finds out that Vannessa and Sasha’s dad are divorced and Sasha doesn’t  see her dad at all anymore. They do some more research and find out Her mom has full custody of Sasha because the dad did some jail time for unknown reasons. Coach Gabby’s heart sinks at the thought of what she thinks happens, she tells the front office lady to check the cameras to see if Sasha left with anyone. Coach returns to the gym shortly after. Maria looks at the way coach gabby is entering the room, she looks like she doesn’t have a thought going on in her head and looks like she is about to throw up. 

It was time to dismiss the girls from tryouts, “Ok girls, good job i’ll tell you who made the teams tomorrow morning. All the girls leave, at Maria’s house she calls Sasha  hoping for an answer but no one does, she’s starting to get worried about her. A couples hours latter Maria gets a notification on her phone, she reads 

“Amber alert for Sasha williams”

Her eyes widen as she keeps reading. It says her dad stole her from school and the car that she took her in is an old worn down jeep” she runs to go tell her mom and they both break down in tears. Maria can’t believe her best friend is kidnapped and if she’s ever gonna be found or what her cruel dad will do to her and how scared she is. After she calms down a little she thinks back at school, she thinks about how she was acting at school and how she was so anxious. Maria wonders if she knew something like this was going to happen. Maria calls Vanessa, Sasha’s mom, to see how she is doing. 

“Hey Vanessa, how are you doing,” said Maria’s mom. 

“As best as I can,” said Sasha’s mom”

A couple weeks go by and no new news and Maria makes a lot of new friends but she still thinks about Sasha dailey and wonders where she’s at or even if she’s still alive. Coach Gabby can see that Maria’s volleyball performance has not been like she usually plays and thinks that because of Sasha’s disappearance. A year or so goes b y and on the news a car crash is found with 2 dead in divalus that are reported to be Sasha and her dad… With a note that looks like Sasha’s handwriting that said 

“Sorry mom and Maria” 

No one knows why she was sorry. They had her funeral and Sasha’s mom moved away.

★ Fly Back to Me ★

Name: June, Age: 13, Grade: 8th

One day I was on my way to a Volleyball game when I ran into Mark and his gang in the halls.

 “What are you in a rush for short stuff?” he sneered. 

I rolled my eyes at him and snapped back, “None of your business jerk!”

 I sprint past him, to the beach where the match has already started. I groan under my breath, knowing I will be scolded by both my coach and my parents for being a few minutes late to the game. 

“What took you so long in June?”

 My coach didn’t sound happy once I had made it to where she was standing, “Sorry I ran into someone and they wouldn’t let me pass them for 5 minutes… But please don’t make me run laps for being a little late coach!”

 I pleaded for her not to make me run laps until she made a bet with me, “If you get us to win this game you don’t have to run laps. If not, then it’s 20 laps at practice.” 

I accept it and go switch with my teammate, the opposite team hits the ball over and within seconds I spike it down into the sand. 

The crowd cheers for us while others groan disappointed with the team they were going for. I give my friends high fives and handshakes then it’s my turn to serve. 

I tossed the ball up and hit it over the net. The other team hit it but it went into the net. We kept playing for some time till we needed the last winning points. Which made me think if I was making my coach proud or not?

 When I went to serve again a bird flew by, knowing the details of its blue and green color, I should have known it was my grandma’s pet parrot Mango. I made our last point and we won! 

After our huddle I look for my grandma and find her with my parents. I walk over and hug her asking how her and mango have been doing. “Oh we have been great! How have you been June?” 

“I have been good, I’ve  had better days but yeah.” 

I walk with her to the car and then we say our goodbyes. Once I get home I instantly shower, eat some dinner, brush my teeth, and go to bed.

 The next day my whole body was aching, I couldn’t bear to get out of bed but I still had to get ready for church. 

I got out of bed the pain and my body ached, but I fought it off and got dressed out of my pjs. I went downstairs to get myself some breakfast and called my best friend who also plays volleyball with me. 

“Hey girl, what’s up?”, she asks when she answers the phone. “ Hey Ally, I was wondering if you would be at church this morning?”, She was silent for a second before replying “ I’m already at church waiting for you”

 I nearly dropped the phone when I saw the time.  It’s 9:40?! Church starts in 20 minutes!

 I set the phone down on speaker while I shoot up the stairs and get dressed into my church uniform.

 I ran back down the stairs grabbing my toast with butter, my bag, and my phone. I get my shoes on as quickly as possible running out the door, I arrive at the church.

 Oh my gosh I am so tired from running… “Oh hey Ally” I’m panting my hands on my knees. “Jeez how long do you live from here again June?”

 She gives me a mocking grin and I stand up straight. “ I live like five blocks down the street from here down the hill.” I was breathing heavily, My blood started to boil when Mark called out “June you look like a mess!”

 He starts laughing and I’m on the last thread from punching him in the face. “Mark, stop it!” Ally tries to get him to stop while I just get more angry. 

Him and his gang just laugh, I grab Ally’s arm and walk away with her, my grip on her arm tightens,

 “Let’s go Ally….” My voice was cold as I just looked straight at the doors to inside the church. “Ow June, that kinda hurts!”

 she winces in pain, I let go of her arm and I continue walking to the doors. 

Mark follows us and he manage to catch up to us with how much faster of a walker he is than us two are. 

“What’s the matter June? Are you a little upset because you look like a wet dog right now?” His friends behind us snicker, 

I stop in my tracks and turn to Mark.  “ You either shut up Mark or I’m going to punch you in the nose. You always wanna bug me so that you can just get yourself hurt then!” I shout at him.

“You sound like a high pitched squirrel when you’re mad..” He sneers while he grabs my arm.

I could feel how tight his grip was on my arm, I tried to pull away but he just pulled me closer.

“Mark let me go, Your acting so weird-” He cuts me off interrupting me.

“June you’re so dang stubborn just give up already” for some reason his words give me butterflies in my stomach.

“What?” I pull out of his grip and back up, “what are you saying Mark?”

I was confused and flustered at the same time. “I like you June. That’s what I’m saying…”

 I could see the embarrassment on his face, “Give me time to think mark..” My heart was racing as I walked into church, after church was over I still couldn’t get the thought of what he said out of my head. What were these feelings I have for him?

“June!”. Mark Walked over and I could feel my cheeks burning as he got closer to where I was located.

“What is it Mark?”.  I asked in a stern tone. “Whoa still mad about earlier?” He said in a seductive tone which made my heart pound in my chest. 

“No.. I’m not mad about anything” I mumble as he gets closer.

“Then what is it June?” he goes silent for a second,

“Are you still thinking of what I confessed to you still?” He smirks,

My heart was racing and I couldn’t get the words out to say anything.

I rest my forehead on his chest embarrassed to look up at him.

He held me in a somewhat hug that made me feel safe. 

“Mark.. I like you too, but I just didn’t know how to tell you..” 

His eyes lit up as he heard what I had just said. 

“That’s why you are always in a snappy mood, hm?” He teases me as he chuckles. I look up at him as he looks back down at me. “ Wanna go to the park?”. I asked.

He Smiles and nods his head. “Yeah I would love to go to the park with you June.” We walked together to the park. 

I started to speed up when a man in all black clothes was following us with his hand behind his back “Speed up..” 

I whisper to Mark as we walk faster.

The man starts sprinting at us. We started running and hid in the bushes.

“Are you okay June?” I nod my head and my breathing is heavy. 

We got out of the bushes and continued walking to the park, once we made it to the park it started to rain.

          “Oh how I love the rain..” I say in a soft tone. 

Mark looks at me and smiles “Wanna jump in puddles?” I accept his request and we jump in puddles dancing in the rain.“I love this!” 

        I giggle as I spin around In circles.

A while later we thought it was a good idea to go home. “It’s starting to rain a lot.” Mark holds me close to him. 

While we started to walk home, The man was back… But he wasn’t alone, He had a whole gang with him. We sprinted home and stayed at my house. I called 911 and told them there was a group of guys with weapons in front of the house.

When  the cops arrived they looked around the house and only caught 3 of them, when there were 6. Mark told me he would stay at my place to make sure I would be okay sleeping, “Yeah that’s fine..”

I tried to sleep in bed but I was still scared, so I went downstairs to the living room where Mark is. “What’s wrong June?”

He has this worried expression on his face, I sit down beside him. “I’m just scared they might find us again..”

He puts his arms around me in a hug. “It will be okay, they won’t be back soon..”

We watched a movie and I ended up falling asleep, Mark also fell asleep too and the next morning we didn’t wake up till 10:23am. “Good morning…”

I mumble as I start to open my eyes to see Mark was making breakfast. “Good morning sleepy head..”

I could smell eggs and steak being cooked. “Are you making eggs and steak?”

I walked over to him and the smell of the eggs and steak’s amazing.

By Braydon Price.

In the beginning Bob started his engine. Then Bob went on the track to start to warm up. After Bob got warmed up Bob and the other races went back to three trals. Bob got something to eat then Bob went back to the track and got in line to start the race.

Bob and the other people got the green flag so they started the race. Three laps in, someone wrecked the car and then the race had to stop so the clean up tem could clear the track and the race got going.

 Then Bob and the other race are fighting for 1st place. They were bumping into each other and they kept fighting. Bob was still fighting for 1st place and his car was losing speed but he was not giving up.

Donald Trump sped up. The crowd went crazy,  but Bob was still fighting and there was only one lap to go. 

Bob was in 1st place now. Bob won the first race. Now he was going to his trial to rest. In 30 minutes, Bob will go and start the second race. 

They got the green flag. There was a pile up in the 1st corner of the track. Then 3 people started to fight, and the cops came to split them up. Bob wanted to keep going, but they had to stop the race. Then 20 minutes went by and the race still was not going. 

Bob was getting mad but they said five more minutes left to wait, so he was happy. Then Bob got on the track. They got lined up again and Bob got in the front of the line. Bob doesn’t want to lose this shot in the race. Suddenly Bob got hit from the back of his car. Bob lost his spot in the race. Bob was not going to give up. Bob and this other guy were fighting for 1st place. Bob was now in 1st place with 2 laps to go. Now there was only 1 lap to go. Bob was still in first place. Bob saw the checker flag. Bob was happy he got first place in that race. Now Bob and the 4 winds have to have the championship race in one week. 

Bob has one week to rebuild his car so it can go alot faster than it did at the home races. Bob got his car done but the race is in 2 days. So Bob now had put his car back together fast. Bob and his new friend Bill.

          “Bob, this is not going to get done in 2 days. We still have the second car to put together. We will not put this car together in 2 days. We should not rebuild this car, we are not going to make it.” – said Bill

          “Do not tell me what to do. You should be happy that I’m helping you with these dumb cars so shut up and let me work.” – Said Bill

 “Bill this car is not dumb you are dumb if you want me to win we have to work” – said Bob

            “Bob, I’m not dumb. If you want me to work, leave me alone.’ – said Bill  

“Yes we are if you stop talking we will yes we will not going to get this done so get to work.” -Said Bob

“I’m going to get something to eat. Do you want something to eat?” – Said Bob   

“No. Well, where are you going?” – Said Bill   

“I’m going to Casey’s, what do you want, pizza and a Mtn Dew.” – Said Bob

        “Bill, are you still mad at me? I got you food.” – Said Bob

        “Yes Bob, I’m still mad at you because I’m stupid.”

        “Bill, you are not in preschool. You are a grown man so you can grow up and drop it. And get to work you are slowing me down.” – Said Bob

        “Well I know that I’m not in preschool. And I’m already a grown man. I will drop it if you do not shut up. I’m not slowing you down.” – Said  Bill

        “Bill is just going to start working to.” – Said Bob

         “We got it done well, let’s see if it will start tomorrow.” – Said Bill

          “I hope it does. We only have one day to work on it and we have to leave early to get there on time.” – said Bob 

       “Well it runs!” – said Bill

       “Yes it does bill!” – said Bob

        “Let’s put it on the trailer and let’s get ready to leave.” – said Bill

       “I hope that we make it on time we left late.” – said Bill

       “We won’t be late so do not worry bill. We just be one of the late ones at the ticket booth.” – said Bob 

       “We made it and we are not late like I told you bill” – said Bob

       “Hope you do well at warm ups Bob!” -said bill

      “Me to bill!” – said Bob 

      “Bill, this car is good on this track.” – said Bob

“That is the best news of my day so far. Well get out of the car and take a break be for you have to go and race.” – said Bill
