Why me!
By, Swim321
My life is very weird.
That is what I will start with.
Read my story to find out WHY my life is so weird. I will start from the beginning if it all.
It was a warm evening. I was walking down Midland road, with my best friend, Grover Underwood; he had a rare leg disease so we were walking slowly. The late summer breeze blew trough my dirty-blonde hair. All of a sudden we heard a screeching noise coming from my cell phone.
"What is that?" Grover yelled
"It's my phone, I think" I replied, shocked at his outburst.
"You never told me you had a phone!" Grover yelled
"Well I thought it was implied! I'm 12 years old after all!" I yelled back.
He slammed my phone to the ground.
"RUN!"
Grover didn't need to say it twice, a massive snake like monster was slithering towards me.
"Wait!" I stopped in my tracks
"You can't run!" I added
Before the words left my lips I saw Grover running behind me, he had chicken legs of some sort. I was dumbfounded, but there was no time for that. We were running at top speed.
"Where do we go?" I asked him
"Just follow me!" he yelled
After that our pace slowed down a bit. The snake thing, or 'Hydra' as Grover called it, was slowing down, so we some of a break after about 3 miles or so. Grover stood up, and jumped into a car.
"What the …" my voice trailed, Grover had just jumped into a shiny blue Ferrari.
"Get in, now! Hydra isn't far behind!" Grover said.
I jumped into the sports car. Where the hell are we going! I begged
"Just be quiet for now!" Grover pleaded
I shut up for a while after that.
I think I must've fallen asleep during the drive because when I woke up, we were driving past a sign that said 'pick your own strawberries' and I guessed we were not in Michigan anymore. The blue Ferrari picked up speed after that, and after sitting awkwardly for 10 minutes I broke the silence.
"Grover" I asked
"Hmm?" he replied
"Ummm… I'm not quite sure, but I guess I'm sorry for asking for so much information, but I'm just really confused, sorry"
"No its fine, I'm just really stressed right now. So many are dead."
"WHAT? DEAD?" WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
