The Bad Dream

By Ava Meier

Part I

One day I woke up and walked around, but I couldn’t find my parents anywhere. I checked all over the moon. I still couldn’t find my mom and dad. Then I looked back to go home. First I walked, then I ran, then I was lost! I started walking again and saw the ice cream store. I was tired from running, and I was hot. Then I remembered I got my allowance yesterday! I walked inside and got my favorite. I love mint ice cream. After I ate my ice cream, I started walking again. I couldn’t find anything or anyone! I walked some more, and saw my school. I went inside and checked the lockers, but then the floor opened up beneath me! Suddenly I was on the sun. I walked around, wondering why I was on the sun. Then I saw an alien. It started chasing me! It caught me and un-alived me! Then the sun broke, and I was floating in the galaxy.

Suddenly I heard an alarm! I woke up screaming in a cold sweat.

“Why are you screaming?” my mom asked.

“I had a bad dream”.

“Oh well. Get dressed. You’ll be late for school,” my mom said.

I think I had a bad dream because I just moved here. I got dressed, ate breakfast, and took a shower. I went to school, and it gave me scary vibes.

 

Part II

When the bell rang, I went to class. At recess I met this girl. She was nice and we became best friends. Her name was Bailey. On Friday, we had a sleepover. It was really fun. When my parents left for a date, we snuck a lot of ice cream and candy!

“Let’s go to the store and buy gummy bears!” said Bailey. I felt like it was a bad idea, but we went, anyway. It was night, and I was scared. We went to a gas station nearby. Then a van drove by and captured us in a bag! We were kept in his basement for years. As a ghost, I still see with my BFF … the “MISSING” fliers of us!. ….
