Friday the Thirteenth
By: Chrissy Granger
After a few minutes I landed on hard ground. I got up having trouble adjusting to the darkness. Took my matches and lit a torch nearby. I looked around.
I gasped. "Oh my God!!" There he was. Ash. Right in the corner. He had shackles around his arms and he was gagged .He was lifted an inch from the ground against the wall.
I ran to him. His face was dirty and he was mumbling something.
"I was so worried." Said I. I brushed a loose hair from his face only to have it fall down again.
"Mrrrssstii is uh trrrrp." Ash mumbled.
"What?" I asked. I removed his gag and threw it on the ground. The clock struck 2:00A.M.
"Misty, it's a trap," he said.
"What do you mean?" I would soon find out.
I heard a creek behind me and it felt as though something had touched my arm. The torch then flew from my hand and landed on some hay nearby. A thin layer of fog surrounded the room and the hay went up in flames.
I began to panic and tried to find something to put the fire out with. My hand brushed against my Pokeballs and I sent out Staru and Poliwag.
"Water gun," I commanded and in no time the fire was out. I began to search for a key to unlock the shackles and found them. As I picked it up the floor gave in and I fell yet again. I felt like a failure. I finally had a chance to rescue Ash and I blew it.
I landed in a small room with a ladder in it. I climbed the latter and found myself in what seemed to be the master bedroom. I opened a door to get out and I found myself in the closet. I saw something sticking through the clothes. I pulled them back and screamed for the third time that night. Right in front of me was a redhead, obviously dead, and she was hanging in the closet by a rope around her neck. I was starting to get suspicious about that redhead thing then thought back to the diary entry. I shivered and closed the door.
I found the exit and walked down the hall screaming Brock and Team Rocket's name. I walked to the living room, sat down on my sleeping bag and, thinking things over in my head, waited.
