The Ghost Who Took My Life Away

Stebbins student Lovina Steve wrote this imaginative and scary story.

Courtney and Pulcheria were walking on the sidewalk. When they reached up to the playground they saw a ghost running to a girl. The girl was just standing there screaming her lungs out. Pulcheria and Courtney were scared. When the ghost saw the girls, it disappeared. Pulcheria looked at Courtney and whispered “Let’s go home before it comes again.” They both went home.

Courtney was at her house sitting down eating popcorn with a candy bar. When she heard something in the kitchen, she jumped up and grabbed a broom and turned on the light. She looked in the kitchen and saw the same girl that was killed near the playground. Courtney dropped the broom and just stood there doing nothing, until she heard the door bell ring. She looked at the door and then back in the kitchen. The ghost was gone.

Courtney went to the door to answer it. Pulcheria was standing there and said, “I saw the girl in my bedroom staring at me.” And Pulcheria slept at her house. Courtney was scared to go to sleep, so she decided to sleep in the morning. When she fell asleep in the morning she saw the girl in her dream. Courtney started to scream in her dream saying, “Wake up, wake up! Wake up you dummy!” Pulcheria came from the kitchen eating a hot dog, she saw Courtney shaking on the floor. Pulcheria dropped her food and picked up Courtney and said, “Courtney are you alright? Wake up Courtney! You are scaring me!” When Courtney heard someone yelling she woke up and she was crying. She told Pulcheria that she wished they never walked to the playground.

Courtney’s mom came home in the afternoon. She saw Courtney standing on a chair with a rope tied around her neck. Courtney’s mom ran to her and said, “Honey I need you to take off that rope and come down so we can talk this over.” Courtney looked at her and cried. She took the rope off and hugged her mom. When they were done talking Courtney’s mom said “Pulcheria’s mom and dad is looking for her. Do you know were she is?” Courtney said “She is upstairs sleeping on the bed.” Her mom went up stairs to wake up Pulcheria. When she went in Pulcheria was in the closet. Her eyes where wide open, she was pale as a sheet, and she was shaking. Courtney’s mom ran out, grabbed a blanket from the closet, and ran back to Pulcheria. When she got back she found broken glass on the bedroom floor. She looked at Pulcheria, who was holding a piece of glass in her hand, cutting herself ten times on the arm. By the time Courtney’s mom took the glass away, Pulcheria was already dead.

The police came over to the house to pick up Pulcheria. Courtney was crying, hitting the floor, and saying, “Why would you want to take Pulcheria away from me? She was the only friend I had!” One day Courtney decided to go look for the girl’s body. When Courtney found the body next to the forest, she said, “So this is you. I thought you were something else. Instead you are Maime.”

Courtney called the police and said, “I found the missing girl. Her name is Mamie Pete. I found her by the forest.” The police came by with the undertaker. Courtney went home and sat down on the coach. When she looked up she saw Mamie. Courtney jumped up , and asked her “What do you want from me?” Mamie looked at her and said, “I just want to thank you.” Then Mamie walked through the wall and she was gone.

Courtney sat down laughing, crying, and said “It’s over! It’s over! She left me alone!” Courtney had a happy day for the rest of her life.
