Me: Hey everyone here's my story for the holiday that either chills us to the bones or makes us howl to the moon. (Bad jokes I know) I hope you all like it and I wish you all a Spook-tacular Halloween!

+Too good to be a Treat+
"You want me to believe that going to a school, during the week before Halloween is suppose to be a good thing," a skeptical Jack Spicer asked his cousin. His redheaded cousin, Kairi Wise eagerly nodded. "Yeah, you'll love it Jack. Everyone's really nice there and you don't have to stay there and you don't even have to do school work; just me."
The boarding school Kairi went to, Wolfsbane Academy, had a tradition of having the students invite one member of their family to stay at the school and spend the week celebrating the week before Halloween with them. With both of her parents out of town Kairi thought her cousin would be an excellent third choice.
Jack scratched his chin, uncertain. "I still don'-""Did I mention your excused from doing schoolwork and homework from your actual school if you come."
He quickly left the living room they were in and came back with two suitcases. "When's the next flight to Aconite Falls?" Aconite Falls was the town where Wolfsbane Academy was located.
The flight was surprisingly enjoyable, seeing how the teens got to fly in first class and the plane only flew for 3 hours. Once Kairi and Jack got their luggage they were greeted by a chauffeur in a black suit and lead them to a sleek looking Mercedes and were driven out of the airport and onto the highway.
A half and hour passed and a sign was shown with the words saying.
~Welcome to Aconite Falls~
"A pleasant place to live"
The town was fairly quaint with an air of mystery to it. Most of the houses were of Victorian style and was soon replaced with large, tall pine trees zooming passed the car. Jack was about to fall asleep when Kairi nudged his side gently and woke up and gaped when he saw the school.
If the houses from the town looked like mansions, the school looked like a castle. (1) It was was grand, large, and had a spacious grounds. It also had an indoor pool! They both got out and went to the trunk to get their stuff and waved goodbye to the chauffeur.
Kairi glanced at her fidgeting cousin, concern. "You okay?"
He nodded and said, "Let's do this. I'm still getting free food right?"
Kairi rolled her eyes, playfully but nodded. They went up the front stairs and pulled the chord which rung a bell that sounded a lot like a gong. That definitely woke them up. In a matter of seconds, the wood carved double doors swung open and they both walked into the dark abyss.
Me: Yes this chapter was kinda short but I didn't get much time and I've been working on for only a few hours. :P Better something than nothing right?
(1)- I based the school to look like Margam Castle. If you have no idea what it looks like then Google image it. :)
Keep on Writin' and Rockin'
