DAY 1 – THE BEGINNING

DAY 1 – THE BEGINNING

The day was beginning in the beautiful town of Burben. Mathius had just woken up. He was about to go downstairs when he heard a sound from outside his window. He went to the windowsill and he spotted his friend Tanya.

Mathius: Good morning. Tanya.

Tanya: Hey Mathius. Hurry up or we are going to be late for school.

Mathius: Okay, hold on a second. I'll be right down.

Mathius rushed down the stairs and jetted out of the house. Mathius caught up with his friend Tanya, and they both walked to school together.

Tanya: Hey, did you hear that Mr. Sinclair is putting up the sign up sheet for the field trip tomorrow?

Mathius: Hmm I didn't know. Where are we going anyways?

Tanya: I heard that we are going to go to Dracula's Castle?

Mathius: You don't really believe in Dracula, do you?

Tanya: Of course I do. At night when everybody is asleep a vampire sits at the top of the balcony of the school and waits till he sees a victim. Then he swoops down and devours her blood.

Mathius: That is just a bunch of rumors. Have you ever actually seen a vampire sit at the top of the balcony?

Tanya: Well not really.

Mathius: Then its just a bunch of rumors.

Tanya: Hmmm, maybe you're right.

The two were close to the school, that was when Tanya spotted the most extravagant dress in the window display of the store "Secrets." The dress was black with white ribbons down the side.

Tanya: I want that dress so bad. But it's so expensive.

Mathius: That dress is ugly anyways. He looks like something you wear to a funeral.

Tanya: Of course a guy wouldn't know the difference between a pretty dress and an ugly dress.

Mathius: I know enough to say that that dress is not worth 300.

Tanya: Whatever, lets just get to school before we're late for class.

Mathius: You're the one who wanted to stop by the window display to look at the dress.

Tanya: Do you want to argue or do you want to get to class on time?

Mathius: Well then stop talking and lets go.

Tanya: Ooooh, you make me so aggravated.

The two of them got to school and before they got into class, the field trip sign up sheet caught there eye.

Tanya: Hey Mathius, lets sign up.

Mathius: I really don't want to go to Dracula's castle.

??: Are you scared, Mathius?

Mathius looked behind him to see who was there. He recognized exactly who it was. It was his best friend, Aleena.

Mathius: NO!! I am not scared. I just have better things to do than waste my time to go to some castle.

Aleena: Typical Mathius. Trying to deny it. Haha. Would you go to the castle, if I was to go with you?

Mathius: Ummm, sure.

Aleena: Fine then. Hey Tanya, can you please put my name and Mathius' name up on the sign up sheet in pen?

Tanya: Sure. But why in pen?

Aleena: Because Mathius might erase his name when I'm not looking.

Mathius: Fine. Put my name in pen. I'm not scared to go to some castle.

Tanya: Okay I did it. I put my name, your name and Mathius' name up on the sign up sheet in pen.

Aleena: Good. Haha.

The three walked to class. After school, the three went there separate ways. Aleena went to cheerleading practice and Tanya went to the gym. Mathius walked home alone. On his way home, he looked at the ocean and he saw Dracula's castle. He then had butterflies in his stomach. He knew that this trip would be a trip that he would never forget.
