It was 3:00 that afternoon when I usually search for animals to catch and have a new pet, but today I found a cabin that I have never seen before because I went way farther back than usual. I lurked closer to the cabin to look through the window and see what was in there. It was full of spider webs and huge spiders crawling around. I started to wonder why a cabin was just sitting in the middle of the woods. I thought for a little while. I said "hmm.... This could make an awesome hide out since me (Ricky Roland) have always wanted a place where I could just be with my friends or be alone, I have wanted this since I was 7 years old, I'm 11 now. I called up all of my friends so they can come check it out. When they got here the strangest thing happened, it looked like a face was in there from where we were standing (about 20ft. away). We went a little closer to see if we new the guy. But he had like a mask on or something so we couldn't tell who it was. The mask was brown with eye holes in it so he could see. He had a hat on too it was also brown but it was a darker brown. The guy heard us swish some leaves trying to get closer. He opened the door my heart was pounding as fast as a race horse. He got closer and closer to us. Run!! I yelled we ran as fast as we could dodging trees and thorn bushes that got in our way. The guy came running after us he was gaining little by little. The slowest friend (Mark) was huffing and puffy trying to get away from the guy. A few seconds later the guy tripped and fell and slid all the way down the hill back to his cabin. He stopped chasing us, we stopped running, all we did was stare at each other. I knew that we could take over the cabin when he least expected it. We would need some weapons though. We started gathering big sticks to beet him with when we were going to take over our dream cabin. In 2 weeks we got ourselves scrap medal the tie around our chests and we got the big sticks to beet him with. We were ready to take over that cabin once and for all. We slowly walked down the hill to get to the cabin. We saw his face once again but he wasn't looking. We went down as slow and as quiet as we could. When we got to the cabin his face was still turned the other way. I kicked a stick on purpose so he would come out and we would ambush him. It worked he came out looking around, we got up and started beating him with the sticks. He started punching us as hard as he could but he was just hurting his self from punching the medal armor. But then the guy took out a gun and shot Mark in the stomach. The medal wasn't thick enough. The bullet went through and hit him. 2 of us hit the gun out of his hand and still were beating him while Joey went and called the ambulance. They rushed over as fast as they could. But they were too late, he wasn't breathing. As the police came down the hill we stopped fight and the guy stopped fighting too. He gave up. We got our cabin but we lost our friend trying to get it. It was the worst day of my life. When yet still a good day. The guy was put in jail, and we had an opening party for the cabin. Everyone had so much fun. But I didn't have as much fun without Mark. That night I fell asleep having a dream that we conquered the cabin without anyone getting hurt. But that was just a dream.
