The Last Camping Trip

By Kimberly

            It was a very deep, dark night without a hint of stars sparkling, just the perfect night for camping. After Selena, Aero, and I filled our stomachs with tons of graham crackers + Hershey + marshmallows, finally, it was time for spooky stories. Whoever tells the story and if someone listening makes any sound, that storyteller wins and gets $25 worth of an iTunes card. It was a quite simple game. Selena’s turn came first after 4 rock-paper-scissors. Selena started telling the story,

            “ Four years from now, there was this quiet girl named Aero. She looked just like you, Kim. We don’t know if something happened to her, but she disappeared suddenly right after camping with her friend, Selena. Well, she has the same name as me. Until now, the police gave up to even find her dead body in camping sight. I seriously feel bad for her. But you know what’s even weirder? The place where she disappeared matches with the spot we are camping in now. Do you get the point, Aero, Kim, and Selena? That it actually happened in this forest?”

            Selena’s eyes flickered and glowed in red, and then blood started dripping from her wide, burning-red mouth.
