The Black Mansion
“Emma, wake up!” Mrs Elson called. “What, mum?” Emma replied in a deep, bothered voice. “Its Saturday, why do you wake me up at...” Emma looked at the clock. “9:24?” Mrs Elson poured a whole basket of Halloween candy. “Help me put the decoration on and invite the new girl who had just moved here, Lucy, into your Halloween group.” Mrs Elson put a bag of un-blown balloons with Halloween pictures on Emma’s desk. Emma got out of bed, did everything a normal person would do in the morning, and walked straight out of the house, pretending to forget about the balloons. She arrived at the girl’s house quickly and knocked on the door. “Yes? Who’s there?” a tall woman with short, brown hair wearing a hand-knitted jumper answered. “Uuh...I’m Emma and I’m here to invite Lucy into our Halloween group” Emma whispered. The woman called out: ”LUCY!” A girl with long dark brown hair tied into two high ponytails rushed out. “Yes, mum?” the girl had a high, bird tweet like voice. “This is Emma.” Emma waved with a not-sure smile. “Nice to meet you! I’m Lucy. I just moved here.” Lucy said. “I’m here to invite you to the Trick or treat group.” Emma pointed down the flat, where to organising takes place. “Really? Of course I’m coming!” Lucy stomped into her sandals and ran.
“Hey!” Malia waved. They are already in their Halloween costumes. Malia the fairy, Josh the frankenstein, Harry the clown, Tim the ghost and Susie the mouse. “We’re waiting for you!” Once Lucy and Emma joined the group, Malia repeated their plan again. “This Halloween we’re going to trick or treat all the house, no matter what.” Malia looked at Lucy. “What’s your name, new member?” “Lucy.” “Good. Lets go.” They went out of the flat. They went through all the house in the Hilton area except the mansion. They got a bags full of Halloween candy. “Lets go home now!” Tim said. “No. What about the mansion?” Malia insisted. Emma and Lucy looking at Malia and Tim. Tim frowned, like he’s going to cry. “Go home if you want, scaredy cat.” Malia said without looking at him. For the next 5 minutes, Tim followed Malia without a word. Suddenly they arrived at the mansion. Malia knocked on the door. “Hello? Helloooo? We’re here for halloween. Anyways, Trick or Treat!” The door opened and dust flew everywhere.
The little group of seven kids entered the Mansion. Spiderweb everywhere, the furniture is not covered. Which means, there is people living here. “How can they live in a rusty place like this?” Susie tried to dodge all the spiderweb, but one fell on her head without noticing. “I don’t know. But the people living here really got a poor taste.” Josh lifted a little plate which has painting of angels. “Anyways, lets look around.” Emma said. They turned right and entered the bedroom. In the bedroom, there is a bed, of course, and a closet, a cupboard, a table and a rusted old mat. Emma looked up, there is a broken bulb in a dusty lamp. “Lets try to turn the lights on!” Harry pulled the handle. Nothing happened. “Oh, whatever. Malia walked out of the bedroom.” Lucy don’t know what to do. She came here for candy, but she got herself into trouble. She followed Malia and so does everyone else. Emma stayed in the bedroom, feeling a little strange. She went under the bed and found a little book. The title is Diary. She stuffed it in her pocket. They got back to the hallway, past the door, and enter the living room. Emma felt a cold breeze behind her, like some kind of black shadows. Emma followed the group upstairs.
Upstairs is another living room, but cozier. There’s A little fireplace at the corner. Two sofas and a little table around it. Around the other corner, a little chess board and two cushies. Lucy went to the bookshelf and picked the family album. She turned a few pages, slipped a little photo into her pocket and put the book back. Malia sat on the sofa, try to enjoy the warm fire. “We aren’t suppose to touch things here.” Susie whispered. “Well, there may not EVEN be people here...” Malia said in a bossy sound, when she tried to finish her sentence off, footsteps made a klick klack sound. Everyone faced over the way of the footsteps. “Hello, children.” A tall man with a funny mustache, wearing a black suit and shiny black shoes walk out. “Yes, suddenly someone!” Malia yelled. “Trick or treat!” The man dropped candy on everyone’s hands. “Thank you. Now bye!” Tim ran off. “Wait a minute, little boy.” the man sounds like dracula. Tim stopped. Emma stared and so does everyone else. Tim flew back and BOOM he flew into the fireplace. “Tim!” Harry yelled. I forgot to mention earlier, but Harry is Tim’s elder brother. “Don’t worry, children. This is only a projector picture.” He reached into his pocket and clicked a little remote. The fire disappeared. Inside is Tim and cushion covering every wall. Tim is tied up. “What does this mean, Mr Dracula?” Emma said. Lucy went and tried to untie Tim, but got blocked by an invisible wall. “Well, ladies and gents, I gave you something to eat, now you're paying me back.” He showed his red teeth.
“For a century I’ve lived here. Downstairs is made to make people feel like this is a haunted house so no one will come upstairs. But a few little kids has the courage to come upstairs, where I really live. I’m impressed. Anyway, have I mentioned that I’m a vampire?” Emma grabbed the little diary from her pocket(the book she found from under the bed, if you can’t remember)and flapped the pages. A little paper flew out of the book. She picked it up. It says Code to fireplace corner: 3957’ Emma gave the paper to Lucy. Lucy found a calculator-like thing next to the fireplace. She entered 3957 and Tim is free! Now everyone started to run outside. “Don’t you dare to run, little crisps!” Mr Dracula followed. Everyone ran downstairs, but Emma and Lucy ran into the balcony. Mr Dracula followed Emma and Lucy because they are slower. “Quick, here Lucy!” Lucy stepped beside Emma. “2 more minutes before sunrise. Remember, he’s a vampire!” Emma said. “But I can finish you girls in just 5 seconds.” Mr Dracula walked as slowly as he could, approaching Emma and Lucy. They back off and off, but they reached the limit at no time. “Now you got nowhere to run! Hahaha!” Mr Dracula laughed. Just before Mr Dracula touched the girls, the picture in Lucy’s pocket fell. Mr Dracula stared at the photo that fell out Lucy’s pocket. It was a picture of a woman. Emma looked at her watch. “10 sec before sunrise.” Emma telled Lucy. But Mr Dracula put his concentration on the girls again. “DO YOU THINK YOU CAN ESCAPE ME LIKE THAT?” Emma looked at her watch again. “3...2...1... sunrise!” The warm sun shined. “NNOOO!” Mr Dracula shouted, and turned into dust, and so does the mansion. Lucy and Emma got home.
“Heres your share, Lucy.” Malia handed Lucy 1/5 lollies. and everyone gets their share, Emma get a little bit more, too. “Thanks to you two we got away from Mr Dracula. You deserve more lollies.” Malia also gave them hand-made badges. “Lets go home now, honey!” A strange voice shouted. Everyone looked left and right, but no one. “Over there!” Susie pointed up. Two blue creature is sitting in a flying disk. The creature has one eye, 4 arms and a angler at the top of it’s head. “Ok” Lucy also turned into the creature, but smaller. Everyone watched with surprisement. “Thanks for the lollies, guys! On the Garohides (Magazines) said lollies on Earth tastes good! Lucy dropped a handful of lollies on her mouth. Bye!” When Lucy got into the disk by a light beam, the disk shoot away.
“Wow, thats... impressive.” Emma said.
“Huh? What's impressive?” Malia asked.
“Lucy!”
“Who’s Lucy? That girl who moved away from our school a month ago?”
“Oh, nevermind.”
Emma walked towards her home, Malia caught up. Everyone in the group walked home, too. “They must’ve used some kind of memory stick to erase your memory or something.” Emma murmured. “What?” Malia is the kind of person that would ask a question until she got the answer. “I SAID NEVERMIND.” Emma slammed her door shut.
I'm proud about the adjectives i used in my narrative.
