The Pumpkin That Ate Everyone Chapter Four
Inside the haunted house-
Emma could hear her own scream reverberating around the mirror maze, shattering the mirrors… and the Huntsman? Emma relaxed visibly. Of course. The Huntsman couldn't come back. It had just been a personification of her own fears. Maybe this haunted house was more dangerous than she had realized. She shivered and hugged herself. Oh, how she wanted to turn back. But she had to keep going. She lit her flame light again and left the now broken mirror maze.
Outside the haunted house-
Fu Dog heard Emma's scream ricochet around the haunted house then out the front door. Then, it suddenly stopped. Fu Dog lay there, trembling. What had happened to Emma? Maybe he should go in… Then Emma's voiced echoed out to him.
"It-it's all right Fu. Don't worry, it's fine. I'll keep on going." He stopped trembling and sighed.
"All right, but hurry kid. Time's running out!"
Back inside the haunted house-
Emma was nervous. There were no more candles. She wasn't afraid of the dark, but the Huntsman had really shaken her.
"I feel like a milkshake," she whispered to herself. The floorboard creaked underneath her. An eery wind howled through the broken windows. Emma felt herself shiver. If anyone had jumped behind and yelled "BOO!" they would have been roasted. That's how tense she was. Then she came into a room. Something was on the ceiling. She looked up.
"Bats." The flourescent purple fur shone. There were five of them, and they were sleeping. That's odd, Emma thought. Bats are usually nocturnal. But like I said before, these were not normal bats. Emma carefully aimed and threw her fireball at the sleeping bats. They didn't even wake up. Emma wrinkled her nose at the smell of singed fur.
"Ick." She looked around and found a candle, then lit it. She would need the light. Emma went through the rest of the haunted house without any other accidents. When she emerged, Fu Dog was waiting for her.
"Are you all right kid?" he asked. Emma nodded.
"Yeah. There were five bats, and right now they're all barbequed. Only five left." Fu Dog nodded.
"I've been thinking, and maybe we should check near your school." Emma was surprised.
"Why?"
"It seems like a good place to me," he said. Emma shrugged.
"Dragon Up!" Emma left, with Fu Dog on her back of course, destined for her school.
Back at the neighborhood where we left Haley and Jake-
Haley didn't want to fight the cats. They might have been evil cats, but they were still cats, and Haley liked cats.
"Haley, we gotta do somethin'," Jake said, exasperated. Haley crossed her arms.
"I won't hurt those cats." Jake sighed. Just then another meow rose from the mass, this time of terror. Jake turned. Giant ferrets, the same size as the cats, were running down the street. They collided, and Jake watched tufts of fur fly from the now mulit-colored mass.
"Haley, you watch over Spud and Trixie. I'm going to go find Emma," Jake commanded. Haley flew toward the rooftop where Spud and Trixie were stationed. Jake flew toward the direction he had seen Emma go. Who knew what other Halloween terrors were out tonight?
This story is getting less and less random. Well, except for the giant ferrets. That is COMPLETELY random. I'm pretty proud of that!
