THE AWAKENING By Fiona Starr

It was an ordinary day in Bexley London for the Martin brothers. The two boys were sitting at their dining table eating porridge. Their Mother Margaret Martin had two boys; Henry Martin and Peter Martin. They lived in an old wooden house, in the corner of town where nobody ever went.

 “Mum,” Peter mumbled “I heard something in the walls.”

“Oh I’m sure it is nothing sweetheart.”

Peter  walked over and knocked on the wall, and suddenly everything started to shake. Peters bowl of porridge smashed on the wood floor.

 Everything went dark as they heard a creaking noise coming toward them.

“AAH!” Henry screamed. He was no longer in the room.

“HENRY!” Margaret screamed.

She rushed to the door gripping Peter’s arm. She pulled on the handle but it fell off.

“Oh you think it will be that easy.” A mysterious voice said as margaret’s whole body turned into a skeleton.

 Peter ran as fast as he could to the dumbwaiter. He got inside and used the rope to pull himself up to the 3d floor. He ran to the corner of the room, trying to breath as silently as possible.

“Oh this will be fun HAHAHA!”

 Peter grabbed the salt on a small table across the room. It was said that no demon could cross a salt line, But this creature was not a demon. He made a small circle around himself. “Ha, you think those silly little tricks will work on me! I am not a demon you foolish boy!”

 Peter felt a chill run over his back. A black smoke whistled around the room, as a loud and bright flash commenced. Suddenly a horned creature crawled slowly over to him.

Peter was dead in a second and nobody ever knew what happened to the Martin family.

  1. The Awakening
    This story was very scary. I read this when I was home alone and got very scared. I liked everything about the story except the ending. In my opinion it would have settled peoples fear with the story it was a happy ending. Besides that, this story was great. I think you should keep writing!

  2. This story is really well written. and it lets the reader think about what the monster was and by giving the monster that one detail it opens a whole new interpertation of what the beast is. this is a really good and spine chilling story you should defiantly keep writing!

  3. That story was really good it really brought the tone of making it scary and making it feel like some one is after you .

  4. This story was great. Peter was smart about putting salt around him so that demon can’t get to him. Sadly that demon wasn’t a demon at all, I wonder what it was. The only clue is it has horns.
