Halloween Stories

I was running from a bunch of evil clowns, on a lonely road, in the middle of nowhere. Who knew they were so hyped up over a ballet dancer? That was my costume for Halloween. I got mud all over my white Nike socks. I hated wearing ballet shoes, so it's whatever. "Get away from me, dudes!"

"Stop running, kid! We just want to play!"

"Help!" I screamed. "I need help!"

I ran into a dark cave, evading the evil clowns. They lost sight of me at the moment. "We lost her, Jerry!" One of the clowns said. "Don't worry, we'll find her!"

"I hope they'll leave me alone," I whispered to myself. "I hate clowns."

"How can you hate clowns?" An owl asked.

"Gah!" I shrieked. "You can talk!"

"Of course I can talk!" The owl chuckled. "Sorry, didn't mean to startle ya! What's your name?"

"My name is Cindy," I replied. "What's your name?"

"I'm Oliver," the owl said.

"Nice to meet you, Oliver," I said.

"Likewise, I'm sure!" He said. "Want to be friends?"

"Sure!" I exclaimed.

"Yes, the start of a wonderful friendship!" Oliver said. "Quite fantastic! So, why do you hate clowns, Cindy?"

"I just hate them," I said. "A bunch of evil clowns chased me into this cave."

"I see," said Oliver. "How come you're all alone on Halloween? You don't have any friends?"

"I don't," I said.

"Well, I may be an owl, but I don't mind being friends with a lovely human such as yourself!"

"Thanks, Oliver!"

"Of course! You can stay in this cave till the heat dies down!"

"Is this cave your home?" I asked.

"Yes it is!" Oliver said.

"That's so cool!" I said. Then an alligator came towards my way, looking sinister, and ready to bite me. "Get him away from me!" I whimpered.

"I'll handle this uncouth beast!" Oliver said. He got a cartoon mallet, and whacked the alligator with it. "Don't you dare harm my friend! Got it?!"

"Yes, sir!" The alligator said, with cartoon stars floating above him.

"Say you're sorry!" Oliver demanded.

"I'm sorry, girlie," the alligator.

"It's okay, I forgive you," I said, smiling. "My name is Cindy, what's yours?"

"I'm George," the alligator said.

"Nice to meet you, George!"

"Nice to meet you too, Cindy! Friends?"

"You got it dude!"
