“THE STATUE”

Peace River Shopper

This must be some kind of a joke. There is no way that that statue was the one from our house. No way. It could sit on the desk when dad brought it home. Now it is taller than I am. Dad must be playing with us. He had to be. From where we were, that thing looked real. More real than ever. What in the world is going on? When we got home, we ran straight to dad’s office. He was in there writing on his gargoyle story. He didn’t seem too excited when we came in with our story. He slowly turned around and told us to have a seat and tell him what was going on. Trying to catch our breath, we explained to him what we had done and what we had seen. He looked very serious at us and said that we must have made a mistake and that maybe Steve had other statues and maybe we saw one of those. That was pretty much the end of the conversation. Then dad just smiles at us and turns around and starts writing on his story. Hey guys, let me catch you up on Henry. And dad goes on with his story… Well Henry was going to go back to the old grocery story and see if he could find any sign of Bruce or maybe some sign of the gargoyle’s skins or skulls that were there. Henry did know exactly where to look. He had seen them when he was ran off by the owner and his daughter. The trip didn’t take very long and when he got there, he went straight to where the old red door was. The door was flat as a pancake and upside down. When he turned it over he could still see the big claw mark. The old timer was right. There was nothing left. Everything was destroyed. It was hard to tell what was what. Henry looked in the area he knew would be where the bodies were if there were any and found nothing. No sign of anything resembling a gargoyle. Being with Bruce for a long time, he knew what his claw print would look like in the soft dirt around the old store. But Henry couldn’t find any such claw prints. Did Bruce come back with his family and friends and do this? If he did, there was no sign of them. He knew that Bruce could fly, heck all gargoyles can fly. But how would they do all this damage and not leave a single claw print? Henry started thinking that maybe Bruce didn’t do this. Of course he had every good reason to, especially if one of the skin and skulls were his sister’s. Henry keeps looking for a while and can’t find a thing. When it was starting to get dark, he decides to go make camp back at the old creek bed. He arrived there just as it was getting dark. Getting the fire going was the first plan so he could have some coffee. As he put more wood on the fire, he hears a very loud swooshing noise and it was getting closer. The wind from this thing was starting to push the fire away. When Henry looked up, he saw that it was a gargoyle, but it sure wasn’t his friend Bruce, it was… Chapter 11 by Bumpy Thermos

The School District of DeSoto is pleased to announce that the FortifyFL app is LIVE. Now, any student, educator, parent or member of the public can report school safety concerns directly to law enforcement and school administrators anonymously and easily through the FortifyFL app or http://www.getfortifyfl.com/. The Florida Legislature directed this tool’s development in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act. The app, which is available for download on Apple and Android mobile devices, is critical to ensuring all Florida schools are safe environments where students and educators can experience and share the joy of learning without fear. We hope that you will become familiar with this tool and help us spread the word about it with your students and their families. Please note that the official app’s logo will look exactly as it does in the graphic above.
