Edward Scissorhands
By Karley King
One day Kym Boggs was on a walk when she caught a glimpse of the haunted mansion on the hill. At least everyone said it was haunted. Kym didn't think so, though. She decided to check it out.
When she got there she saw huge bush sculptures and flowers all around. It was a gorgeous yard for such a dark and lonely house.
Kym was a brave girl so she charged right up to the house and knocked on the door. A shy man opened the door. He wore a weird black outfit with silver buckles all over it. He had crazy, spiky black hair and, surprisingly, scissor hands. Kym tried not to stare.
"Hello." she said, politely.
"Hi." he answered sheepishly. She was glad he didn't try to shake her hand. She got butterflies in her stomach when he talked again.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Kym Boggs." she answered. He invited her Kym inside and they talked for a long time about themselves. She learned that his name was Edward and they had a lot in common. (Although he didn't know much the outside world at all.)
She also learned that his father/inventor had died a long time ago and he had lived in the mansion ever since. Also that he had done the bush sculptures with his hands and loved to do ice sculptures too. She felt pity for him because she usually hated being alone.
Kym and Edward soon fell in love. Kym was afraid of what her mom, Peg, would think of Edward so she hid him in her garage to hide him from her and the world. Kym would visit Edward every day almost 24/7 since it was summer.
One day, Jim, who was a mean boy that had a crush on Kym found them in the garage. He promised not to tell anyone about Edward as long as Kym would date him. She agreed to this but didn't like it one bit.
Eventually Peg found out about Edward and told him to go home. Kym and Peg got into a big fight and Kym ran away with Edward back to the mansion. Kym wanted so desperately to live with Edward. She kissed him for the first time and knew she was so deeply in love, she just couldn't leave. She asked him to hold her, but raised his scissor hands and said, "I can't., then walked to the other side of the room. She walked to him and they embraced.
The police came to find Kym and they accused Edward of killing his inventor. Edward ended up having to kill the police, then him and Jim fought and Edward killed Jim too! Everyone left them alone after that and Edward and Kym lived happily ever after.
The End
