Chapter 9: A Bump in the Night
One evening, the kids were in their pajamas watching a scary movie in the TV room. In the movie a group of preteens were camping in the Dark Woods, and they'd been chased into the woods by an ogre who wanted to eat them.
"Hurry guys, he's right on our tail." said one of the characters. The kids had their eyed glued on the screen, it was very suspenseful wondering whether or not the ogre was going to get them. Just when the ogre was about to grab one of the kids, the light flickered on.
The kids shrieked in terror, and looked towards the door, and saw Farrah. "Kids, it's time for bed." she said. "Can't we have a few more minutes, Mom?" asked Fred. "Sorry guys, it's 10:30, and it's time for bed. Besides if you keep watching that movie, you'll get nightmares." said Farrah.
"We're not scared of a silly movie, right guys?" asked Luna, to the others, and they agreed. After turning off the TV, the kids said goodnight to Farrah, and went to their rooms.
Around midnight, the kids were sleeping peacefully, when Maria was woken up by something. She heard something rustling and footsteps. "Rain, Rain." said Maria. Rain woke up, and put on her glasses.
"What?" she asked. "Listen do you hear that?" asked Maria. They listened, and Rain to heard the rustling and footsteps. "What's that?" asked Rain. "I don't know. You think we should go see?" asked Maria.
"Well, I'm sure it's probably nothing, but we should just in case." said Rain. The two cousins put on their slippers, grabbed their phones, and left their room. Meanwhile in Jake and Griffin's room, they too heard the strange noises.
"What was that?" asked Griffin. "I don't know, you think it's an ogre?" asked Jake. "We should go see." said Griffin. The two grabbed a flashlight, and left their room. While Maria and Rain were walking through the hall, they heard voices (which were Jake and Griffin).
"It's coming from over there." said Maria. Rain shined her phone's flashlight at them, which blinded them a little. "Hey, what's the big idea?" asked Jake, shielding his eyes. "Jake, Griffin, it's only you." said Rain.
"Of course it's just us. What are you guys doing up anyway?" asked Griffin. "We heard some strange noises." Rain explained. "You heard them too?" questioned Jake. "Yeah, we were just checking it out." explained Maria.
"So were we." said Griffin. Suddenly, the door they were standing in front of opened. The four jumped, until they saw that it was just Winter and Fern. "(Yawns), what's going on?" asked Winter. "We're investigating a noise." said Rain.
"What noise?" asked Fern. They all then heard the rustling and footsteps again. "That was it, wasn't it?" asked Winter. "Yep." answered Jake. "You think it could be an ogre?" asked Fern. "You know maybe it could be." said Griffin.
Soon the six of them were now investigating the strange noises. As they walked through the halls the other kids had woken up to join them. The noises had led them downstairs into the kitchen, and the saw that the refrigerator and pantry were open, and someone was rummaging through them.
And cans, bottles, and boxes were being thrown all over the place. "Whatever's in the house, it's in there." whispered Kit, as the kids stood outside the kitchen. "Okay, there's only two of them, and lots of us. So on the count of three we jump on them." whispered Cameron.
All the kids agreed. Cameron quietly counted to three, and when he said three, they all yelled and stormed into the kitchen. The noise of the kids woke the adults, and they hurried downstairs to the kitchen.
"What's going on in here?" asked Giselle, as she turned on the light. Once the light was turned on, the kids saw little pixies in the air. "Pixies?" asked Spice. "How on earth did pixies get in here?" asked Meeshell.
"On no, looks like I left the window open, and they were hungry." said Ramona. "Well let's get them out of here." said Justine. After they gently shooed all the pixies back at the window and closed it, they went to work cleaning the kitchen.
"What were you kids doing down here so late?" asked Melody. "We heard strange noises, and we came down to investigate." explained Rose. "Yeah, we thought it might've been an ogre." added Fred.
"Did this have something to do with the movie you watched?" asked Farrah. "Maybe." answered Sequoia. "Kids, it was just a movie, besides I doubt an ogre could get in here." said Giselle.
The kids agreed that movies were nothing to be afraid of, and so they all went back to bed, putting the thoughts of ogres out of their heads.
