Prologue to our story "Souls"

Henry V. and Sam G.

4th Grade, Highcroft

A chilled scream echoed off the walls of my room. My dad’s transparent appearence filled the cramped space of my room. “What do you want?” I screamed at him. “What did you do to my mom?”

“I have a challenge for you. Friends!” All of the sudden millions of ghosts appeared–but these were not normal ghosts, they were animals. My brain seemed to be filled with ear shattering cries for help. Just as I thought it couldn't get any worse, a shadow crossed over my room and I heard a squeaky buzz. That was it. But the chaos wasn’t over. All I could see was the blur of the ghosts flying around my room. I was about to burst when the buzz faded and the motion stopped. All of the animals started forming together to form one gigantic griffin. It let out an ear shattering screech before lunging at me. Darkness.
