We were both extremely scared. Then we heard a knocking noise on the door. I knew that Emily was thinking about the story she told, just as much as I was. Emily got the sheet on her bed and stood right next to the door so that she could cover the creature. While I was walking to her, I tripped over a jump rope. I took the jump rope with me and stood on the other side of the door, ready to tie the creature up. Then the doorknob started to turn. Then, finally the door opened and a black, tall figure entered the room. 
   Just before we did anything, a sweet voice asked, “Hey, where are you guys?” A second later, all the power turned on. 
The mysterious creature turned out to be Emily’s mom checking up on us. Emily and I then went downstairs and decided it wasn’t a good idea to tell scary stories after all!
