My scary story

This is my scary story so far. Comment what you think!

Spooky House

Will you survive the battle? Or chicken out?

“Calem, hurry up. I can’t wait all day.” Danny yelled at Calem from the front lawn. They were getting ready to spy on Hailey, Danny’s next door neighbor, to see what she did when they called her to tell her what they were doing that day. She said that she reluctantly got ready, but as Calem always said,

“I highly doubt that she ‘reluctantly’ gets ready. She is always waiting for us when we get there. I swear she rushes to see us.” So you can see why they were suspicious.

“I’m here! Just cool it. There’s no WAY I’d miss this once-in-a-life-time-opportunity.”

“Yeah, well let's gets going Calem! I don’t want to miss this.”

“You won’t! I mean, we’re going to call her aren’t we?”

“Yes. But still, you know that this is important. I will finally know if Hailey likes me. I’ve been wondering since 3^rd grade.”

“Yeah, well she doesn’t like you. It’s me she likes.” Calem smiled, and walked with a little more confidence at the thought that Hailey liked him.

“No way dude. Everyone knows that she likes ME, and has always liked me since Kindergarten.”

“Okay, she liked Daemond Montez in Kindergarten Calem. Not you.”

“Yeah, well in 3^rd grade she liked Jason DuBello. AND she STILL likes him. Her screen saver is his school picture. So apparently she LOOOOOOOOOOVES him.”

“No she doesn’t. She just…is best friends with him.” Danny started get that look in his eye, that meant, don’t say anything else.

“Well, let’s let it drop, because we’re here.” Calem looked at Danny, and smiled evilly.

“Let’s do this.” Danny grabbed his cell phone, and they tip-toed very quickly up to her window. They dialed the phone number, and looked in.

But, then, they screamed, and ‘Hailey’ looked at them, and screamed. But not a human screech, it wasn’t anything like that at all. It was a creature like no other. It was green with a long tail, and huge scales on its back. It had red eyes, and red spots. It drooled all over the place, and the drool was blue. It was nothing like they had ever seen before, and probably ever would again.

TWO: Blue Drool and Red Hot, Hot Tamales

“Oh. My. God. Hailey’s a monster???” Calem whispered very quietly. Almost inaudible.

“You know, I don’t really like Hailey anymore.” Danny was freaking out majorly. He was trembling all over. Especially in his arms and legs and his teeth, which were chattering like crazy.

“Well I still like her. Even if she’ll kill me.”

“So that’s why she was always gone during our movie nights. She was always gone from midnight till eight in the morning, where we would wake up, and she was sleeping just across the room right outside of her mom’s room. I always wondered why she would miss the movies. We always talked about the movies the next week. But she always knew every detail. It’s like she watched them, when she didn’t. And she couldn’t have watched them before, we always got movies the DAY they came out. And she would always be so psyched to watch them. There is no WAY we could’ve even guessed this.” Danny contemplated this for a while, and eventually came to the conclusion, that the truth was inevitable, for he had just seen the truth right before him, and he had Calem, who had witnessed the same thing too.

“But one thing doesn’t make sense.”

“What is it Calem? We don’t have much time! She’s changing back to her normal self to answer her phone.”

“She would come out and tell us that she would only be a couple minutes, then she’d watch another movie, then say she needed fresh air. A half hour later, she would return saying that she needed to throw up. That she’d had too much fresh air. But, within thirty seconds, she’d come out. Saying that she was better. How can a human girl throw up in under thirty seconds. It takes a whole minute just to recover.”

“Maybe she wasn’t human then. Maybe she was still- oh hi Hailey!”

“Hey guys! What’s up? Why are you calling this late at night?” She said into the phone.

“Um, we wanted to tell you all about out new mission.”

“So, team CHAD has another mission eh? Awesome! Well give me the deets and I’ll pass this on to Ailey.”

“Didn’t Ailey die a year ago?”

“No. She didn’t die. She just disappeared.” Hailey giggled. Danny and Calem exchanged glances, both thinking the same thing. She didn’t disappear, she was killed by Hailey.

“I’m going to tell our newest member that joined the club yesterday. He is Ashton Bellington.”

“Ashton?” Danny exclaimed.

“Bellington?” Calem sounded horrified.

“But he’s a fraidy cat! He got scared at my Halloween scary story. And it wasn’t even that scary!”

“Um, Calem. It WAS really scary! I even got scared. Danny too. That was the scariest story you told in the past, what, ten years?”

“Yeah Calem, it WAS pretty scary.”

“Okay, fine. It scared me too, and I was the one telling it! But still, he shouldn’t have gotten so scared that he ran out of the room screaming like a madman. You know they took him to the crazy house because he kept seeing this weird monster?” Calem laughed but stopped as he remembered what Ashton’s description of the monster was. Green, tall, slimy. Red eyes and spots. Big scales rising from its back like volcanoes ready to erupt at any given second. And it’s drool. Its drool the same blue as the sky in the afternoon on a cloudless day. Sounded exactly like what they just saw. Ashton didn’t sound so crazy anymore.

“Okay, so what’s the mission for team CHAD this time?”

“Well, you know that house on the end of Carring Way?

“You mean spooky house?”

“Yeah. That’s the one. We are going to spend the night in Spooky House, on Friday the thirteenth! But, we HAVE to stay up. And if that place is really truly haunted, then I bet we won’t have any trouble staying up.” Calem lowered his voice to make is spookier.

“Friday the THIRTEENTH???” Hailey sounded scared considering she was a monster. Or was it all just an act?

“Yeah. Is there a problem?” Danny said teasingly.

“No. It’s just so brilliant! I don’t know why I didn’t think of it!”

“So does that mean your in?”

“Totally!”

“Awesome!”

“But, there’s just one problem.”

“What is it?” Calem asked. Danny’s eyes grew big. He knew what was coming.

“You know.”

“Know what?

“You know what.”

“I know WHAT?”

“About me.”

“What about you?”

“You know I’m not human.”

“What are you talking about Hailey? You’re human. You’re talking to me, so I know you’re human.”

“Yeah, well look through my window again Calem.”

“But I’m at my house. How can I see you?”

“I know that you’re outside my window. I know you saw me as a Cobble. Just admit it Calem. Danny is hopeless now. He’s my victim.”

“Victim of what?”

“Oh, nothing.”

“Tell me gosh darn it!”

“Let’s just say, the mortician won’t be able to identify him. It’ll be like he fell into a blender, and fell asleep. Forever.” She laughed evilly. Calem hung up the phone, and left the frozen in terror Danny under Hailey’s window. He looked back at him, and when he turned back around to run, Hailey was right in front of him. He gasped, and she laughed, and picked him up. By the throat.

“I know what I’m going to do to you.” She said. Blowing in his face. Her breath reeked of rotting corpses. She laughed again.

What is with all these bad guys laughing all the time?

Calem thought. But just then, Hailey knocked him out. Next thing he knew, he was awake in a house. And old house. He was dangling above a hot lava bowl, being lowered. He tried to wriggle out, but it was no use. The material he was wrapped up in was really strong. He screamed, but he couldn’t hear himself. It was completely silent in the room. He started to panic, and then, had an idea.
