Class of 2014 was at Union Gap School just moments of their big trip to Hawaii. Everyone was so excited to go since most of us have never gone. I was terrified to go on the plane but I still wanted to go. We each raised 200 dollars for this trip and we had to go.

Five minutes passed by and we were just about to leave when the weather just started getting bad. We had just cleaned up from the big party from last night.

Everyone boarded the plane that would be the best day of their life. The sky turned black with dark clouds and poured so much the rivers started to over flow. We stared to take off when the biggest boom of their life hit the sound barriers. All of us freaked and started get antsy to keep going. The plane was loud with obnoxious kids screaming and talking really loud.

By an hour later the weather was horrible it was a big storm full of every bad thing imaginable. Some kids even thought the plane got struck by lightning. The cloud was growing bigger and bigger shooting out lightning until the plane got struck.

The left wing was now on fire. We were hurtling towards earth like a meteor burning all the way down. Every person on the plane was in panic mode even the pilot. The mask then fell down and the pilot grabbed the parachute and was out of there.

About five seconds from the ground the flight attendant took control and tried to land the plane. She failed but at least she didn’t ditch like the pilot. Almost no one was hurt luckily but some got killed. I raced out of the plane like no tomorrow. Since we were on a small island we couldn’t tell where we were.

I was still in shock from the crash I didn’t know what was going on. From the plane was a big gaping hole where we buried all the dead ones. Since we didn’t know how long we would be there we gathered up supplies and made camp. When we woke up the storm was still going on and worse than ever. We ate our bananas and coconuts for breakfast.

Later that day a plane went by and picked up all the survivors which were very limited. We were so excited to get back home to union gap or Yakima. Once we got there and landed I went home to my family. I opened the door as I heard a small meow to notice it was my cat. The house was completely empty and the whole town was to. All I could wonder was what was going on…

To be continued.

All I could wonder was what was going on…

There was no one home I was scared. So then I tried calling my mom but it just went to voice mail. She said on the voice mail though these words: “sorry I missed your calls were running away from the earthquake bye”.

I froze in shock what earthquake and how could they leave me. I then got into the suburban after I grabbed the keys off my dad’s dresser and drove very fast to the airport. But when I got there I was too late. The airplane had just taken off and I was stuck in Yakima all by myself.

The wind started blowing and the clouds started forming and I knew it was time. I drove back to my house and tried to find somewhere to be safe. Then there was a big boom type thing just over the mountains.

Mt. Saint Helens was exploding and the mountain was on fire. I couldn’t believe I was about to die or live. The ground started to shake so I jumped in the tub and hid there.

I heard crashing and glass shattering all around me. I didn’t really realize I was in the middle of it all until it hit me. Our big cherry tree hit the side of the house and almost gave me a heart attack.  After five hours of siting or lying in a bath tub it stopped.

I pushed all the pieces of house of me and walked outside through an open hole where a door used to be. I stopped in shock to see fire and houses destroyed. And down the road was a big long slice where a yellow line used to be. To this day I remember the disaster I lived through as a young girl.

So once upon a time there was this woman who didn’t want her old hair due. So she then decided to go to the hair cutters and asked for a new due. The designer said she had the prefect design and couldn’t wait to try it. After about hour there she fell asleep and woke up with the craziest due she ever seen. But she loved it the lady called it statue of liberty. She paid the lady and couldn’t wait to show her husband the new her.

When she got home her husband wasn’t there he was still at work. So instead she found a couple of her friends to show it off. When she showed them they hated it but didn’t want to her feelings.  So then she went to bed and around 10 she woke to a sudden pound on the door. It was her husband staring blankly at her.  She asked “do you like it?”

He smiled with joy and in the morning he went to go get the same look. After that they became the strange couple on the block. But they loved being weird and especially their hair. Pretty soon the look became popular in there town. Everyone on the street had it. So they knew it was time for a new look and they knew just the person to go to.       

So I understand it’s almost time for Christmas but what do you do. Christmas is the holly jolly time of the year. For us it happens in winter. We play in the snow that is if there is some. Then we play snowball fights and build snow forts. It’s really fun but that’s not Christmas.

 We go to bed early even though it’s hard to sleep. Then in the morning we get up to go open the presents. We get to open some of them but not all. After that we get in the suburban to go to my grandmas and grandpas house. We say hi to everyone and eat ham and potatoes. We open are presents and play white elephant then we leave back home. Usually everyone calls and wishes us a merry Christmas. Everything changes after that.

Since were all tired from waking up early we go to bed to wake up to another fun day. We laugh and play in the winter snow where no one dare go. We then wait for news years for the ultimate time to party and sing for the next year. Are friends come from here and far to the dessert of Yakima? We sing and count down 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0. We dance and skate at the rink. Until they day is over we have to rest to be the best.

Lonely Day…

The best will not rest
For he or she will not be
We sing and dance but do not prance
After that we bat
That ball will fall
Yet no one can hear the bees in her ears
But who will fight for the rest of the night
Then we dig for the big
When no one looking were all getting shaken
Say and pray for the lost ones
Can you be the zero who can be the hero
Do the right thing but do not sing
Be the story with all the glory
Don’t do the crime if you can’t pay the time
Once you go to bed make sure you aren’t dead
Who’s the bunny who is  always funny
Be the band who makes a stand
Get the money to make the honey
Sing the song and dance along
Find the cat who ate the bat
The best will not rest.

This is not real just for a journalism project.

Have you ever had a BFF that you have known literally your whole life? Well I have, she’s the best person you could ever have in your whole life. Her name is Elora and I couldn’t ask for a better friend than her. My mom told me we’ve been best friends forever and she was my first friend ever. She use to live in Yakima, but then she moved far away to Cle Elm. I never get to go to her house a lot anymore because they don’t have enough time. 

About three or four years ago I stayed at her house for four weeks and it was the best time I had ever had in my life. It was during winter so that made it ever better. So while I was there we played with her Barbie’s and later her brother joined in. we played in the snow a lot and had snowball fights and ever built snow forts. I remember pretending to play with her super cute dogs, Lee Lo, Momo, Freckles, and Chester.

In about the first week we became bored and wanted to have some fun. So we had a dog show which was really fun because we took videos and tons of pictures. It was the best time I ever had and we went on the golf cart. We drove that with are friend Daniel until it was literally pitch black outside. And I even got to drive the quad around. It was fun because since it gets cold up in the mountains we when in her hot tub. They got it from the make a wish foundation for her sister.

In the second week I was having the best time of my life because she’s my best friend and we could make anything fun. At night we played scare game where someone has to go in each room and get scared. Also whoever the scariest gets to be it. We played that all night until it was time to go to bed. We slept in her room with her dog. We watched Grease all night but I eventually fell asleep. In the morning she had gotten up before me and was watching television. I don’t remember what show but I remember watching it with her. We when to twin lake and had the best time there.

Twin Lake is a lake that lots of people go swimming in. there is a rope swing which was awesome to feel like you’re flying and then you drop in to the water. It was really fun and maybe one of the best things I ever done. When we were done swimming we were sitting on the grass by the lake and when I looked over I screamed. There was a turtle right by me that freaked me out. I think it got scared by my scream that it walked into the water and swam away. Finally her mom came to pick us up.

When we got home we went for a walk in the woods and brought her dogs for protection. After are walk we went inside to watch more TV until we fell asleep. When we woke up we almost did nothing but for the rest of the week we had a really fun time making up games and just having fun. I would never forget my best friend because I love her.

Ever heard of trick or treating or ever Halloween? Well chances are you already have and it’s a “spooky” time. It’s a time when kids go around house to house getting lots of candy. It occurs on October 31 every year. Legends have it that every year on that day ghosts wander around the streets searching to feast on little kids. So do you think the legends real? Then go to my street…

It was a freezing cold night and the roads were ice. And some children act like no it all’s and go around the neighborhood twice. At Halloween parties they go into the bathroom and say “bloody Mary, bloody Mary, bloody Mary” but nothing happens as to what they think. Then they joked around with each other and hid from one another. But the boy didn’t know any better to hide by the mirror and as he looked in to it he got sucked in. the mom was screaming his name trying to find him but no one could and soon put up missing person ads in the paper. And that was the last time they ever saw him in there thoughts.

Sad story right but it gets sadder on my street. Kids on the street were running from house to house.  Blood dripping from there heads from falling on the slippery icy roads. All the kids laying there dead on the ground staring at something that no one else saw besides me. My house was haunted so no one went there but I loved it. I was a five year old girl abounded by my parents at three. And this creature took care of me but it scared me at times. I needed away from it and it was stepmom, Mary.

I always saw the boy at the party in the streets and he always walked in front of a car and then disappeared. The people always told me I see things and that was the last time before I “died”. I tried trick or treating before and when they looked out the window and ran away from the door acting like there was nothing there. My mom always wore a mask and changed it every week. She talks to me and tells me one day I’ll be like her. She said she got burnt very badly and died and somehow ended up in the mirror.

She loved me more than anything and wanted to kill everyone who hated me which was everyone on the street. So this Halloween she made plan that I didn’t know about until the next day. I went around trying to trick or treat but after ten houses rejected me I quit. Then my mom got involved. She went through the mirror to every house and scratched out their eyes until they were completely gone. She kept the eyes which is one of her hobbies. Then her boyfriend went around slicing their heads off while the daughter suffocated them to death. Together the four of us were unstoppable.

It was bloody Mary, headless Harry and Blue Baby. I was nothing special but soon I would be. Later that day around five she killed me, and scratched out my eyes, and burnt me. That day I went around in a “costume” and hit the jackpot of candy. I was a powerful little kid and killed everyone that was at my front door I was an evil kid that still everyone hated. And it was in my mind to get revenge but first I needed to leave and be alone.

There was that evil spirit in my mind to hurt everyone but then there was that shy little girl I was. So I decided to go down to the corn maze with some friends but realized I had none. “Mom I’m going to the corn maze”, I said.

“Ok have a nice time and don’t stay too late”, she replied.

 At the corn maze around ten, I am this person that wanted to be with people and be nice to them and I knew it would take time. So then I decided to go and leave and change my whole personality. I was an ugly, terrified child that no one liked and I needed a new place with actually alive people. Around eleven I went back home and sat in my room and tried to cry because I didn’t have eyes any more I couldn’t.

That night around eleven-thirty we ran away and laid in some ones lawn that seemed and looked nice to me. I pretended to cry by making sniffy noises through my nose. They came out and saw me and ran over to me. They picked me up and carried me inside. Then they asked “are you alright you poor child”, the young woman said frightened.

“Yes”, I cried back.

The young woman took off my mask and screamed. I tried not to say anything, so I just sat still. She put peroxide on my face as I screamed it hurt less and less every time her delicate hands touched me. It felt comforting and I loved her dearly. But I didn’t know how much she loved me. Then it hit me twelve is when the older kids go trick or treating. Which meant my parents put razor blades and blood and real eye balls inside the candy. I got up and ran as fast as I could back home but forgot the mask so everyone on the way back laughed at me.

When I got there was a little girl at the door just about to knock as I yelled “stop”.

She looked over and ran away back to her mom. I went inside my house and I told them go away leave back to where you came from in the mirror and the windows. As I said that they all disappeared. And my face went back to the way it was. In my opinion I saved the world well at least the people on my street.

They next year I actually made friends and on Halloween night we were a bunch of dumb little kids. We walked past my old house where everything crazy happened. My friend Margret and some others brought up the worst thing ever. I don’t remember how I even forgot about the incident but that’s when it all happened. All of us went to a mirror and window, turned off the lights and lit a candle and said “Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, and Bloody Mary “. And that’s when I knew that my life was over for good.

“Headless Harry, headless Harry, and headless Harry”, said Margret.

“Blue baby, blue baby, and blue baby” said Sam and that’s when they came out and we had to hide.

The next day, we were all dead and in my old stupid haunted house, that I just wanted to burn to the ground. A bunch of high school teens when walking by the house and pretended to be scared when a ghost flew out of the house and made them run for their life. Then and there was when I knew I was that evil little girl again and known as the ghost with glowing red eyes.

Characters: me, Margret, Bloody Mary, headless Harry, and Blue baby.

Candy: razor blade candy, blood and eye balls.

Note to self:

I remember hiding the rest of my life from the creatures and I will never have a good Halloween ever again. But went trick or treating with my new mom and in about five years it turned all better. And I actually made new friends and Margret went missing but no one knew where she went but me. And I will never tell anyone what happened over the years.

A few years later they tore down the house and built a new  house there where this coupled moved in and every Halloween they handed out poison apples and razor blades just like my family. And that was my job not there’s so while they were gone I put blood on the walls that said ‘your next’ and soon I really did take over the bloody Mary job.

Today there are 5101 zombies are in the world. No one knows how they got here or why. But lots of scientists are trying to find how people become them. This is how it all happened twenty years ago.

“Hello what is your problem miss”, said the doctor.

“Please help me there are these creatures everywhere in my house”, said frightened by the woman.

“How did this happen, where are you”, he said.

“Um, I was having a bar-barbecue and I live on Sheri road”, she stuttered.

“Ok I want you to call the police and hurry you don’t have much time”, he yelled.

So she did as so and fast. In about ten minutes they were in the dark concrete the police were there. They tried to kill them but every time they killed one off them the other ones jumped and bit deeply in their skin trying to pry them off. Then in twelve seconds the person would be transformed as a new zombie.

A detective hurried out of the car ran on the cracked paved road and grabbed a dead zombie. He drove over the speed limit by twenty. He got to the science lab and took it in. They soon noticed several bite marks all over the body. Then tested the blood and in the DNA was a virus that couldn’t be explained. So they said on an intercom “everyone to hide and soon it will be over”. But it was not going to be over, so everyone remained calm.

In the middle of the night the scientist was testing on an animal to see if it could work on not just living things.

“Help, help, help”, he screamed as people came running but it was too late.

“Oh my gosh” the crowd was saying.

After about five more days of testing it worked. They named it “zombie”, and knew they couldn’t escape. Soon there were only zombies, also known today as the zombie apocalypse.
