World- Human
Place- Woods
People- Lock and Shock
Age- 8
Lock was walking around though the woods. They had been to the human world a few times before but then it was cold and blanketed in something called snow. This time it was green and everything was alive and growing. Everything in Halloweentown was dead. Or dying.
Lock had taken his shoes off. He liked the smooth blades of grass between his toes. The ground in Halloweentown was hard and covered with rocks and sprinkled with hard objects such as glass, nails, and sharp stones. Barrel had ran off to who-knows-where and same with Shock.
He sat underneath an oak tree letting the bright warm sun hit his face. After a little while he opened his eyes and noticed something near by. He ran over to it and crashed down on his knees nearly crunching it.
In front of him was a yellow puffy thing. He had no clue what it was he had never seen anything like it. It's so pretty. He thought. He took it near the green bottom and plucked it up. Lock held in front of his face and smelt it. It didn't really smell good. But it didn't smell bad either. Suddenly Shock burst out from behind a tree. Her face a bright red instead of pale green.
"I hate this world! God nothing's dead!" She screamed ripping the grass and kicking tree trunks. "I don't understand how these people can live in such a vile place!"
She walked over to Lock. "What's that?" She grumbled. Lock hide the yellow puff in fear of Shock smashing it as she did to the grass. "What is it?!" She demanded. She finally prided it out of his hand. She held it up to her face. "What is this thing? It's worst then the grass!" She hissed. "Don't touch it!" Lock shot up.
She shot an evil daring glare. "What did you say?" Lock stood silenced. "That's what I thought."
Shock took the yellow puff and started ripping it into tiny pieces she then sprinkled it on the ground. "Come on, let's go home." She ran off behind the tree's. "Barrel!" She called. Lock stood there looking at the tiny yellow pieces speechless. He felt his knees give out. He leaned down picking up every tiny piece he could see. Lock felt deep in his eyes water.
I can't cry in front of Shock. She'll think I'm a wimp. Lock thought clumping the pieces and placing them in his pocket. He quickly ran toward the Halloween door. He'd come back and look for another later.
(If you guys were wondering what he found was a Dandelion. This is just to show that even though these three seem tough and mean they still have a heart deep down. Very deep down. -Alicefan1)
