Narrative paper

I am writing a fiction story it is supposed to be horror/scary and there is a little bit of comedy. It is not my intent to end the story like I did. I just have not finished the story yet and there is more.: - )

The History of my house

It was a murky day in small town Aurora, Illinois. Not the best day with the cloudy sky and the cool breeze. It was unusual weather for the Gonzalez family, who were used to a nice bit of sun in Mexico and Texas. Julia was running late for school and her mother, Maria, was waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs.

“Julia, hurry up you are going be late for your first day of sixth grade!”

“I’m going mom!”

“Don’t forget to wear a sweater or a jacket or something! You are going to miss the bus!”

“I’m going mom!”

“Julia, I am going to be late to work if I have to drop you off at school -The bus is here!”

“I’m going mom!!!”

“Hurry up!”

Then Julia came running down the stairs wearing two big sweaters, gloves, and ear muffs.

“Bye mom.”

“Bye mija. Have a good day at school!”

Julia rushed out the door and straight to the bus. Once she got on the bus, she realized that she looked kind of foolish with her two sweaters and earmuffs. She looked around and some kids just had on a t-shirt. Then she saw her cousin Laura in a big winter jacket, earmuffs, and gloves.

“Dang Laura you look like you are ready to walk through a blizzard.”

“Ha ha ha, you look like you are ready to follow me through it!”

The girls laughed at each other and talked about what they thought there day might be like. Then they reached the school and had to separate. Julia and Laura did not get a chance to see each other until the end of the day when they met up on the bus.

“It’s ok.” Julia said slightly annoyed.

“I like our old school better and our old house.”

“Yeah, Laura, I do too.”

The girls talked until finally they reached Laura’s house.

“Well my mom said that you guys are going to come over tonight. So I will see you later. Maybe you can stay over?” Laura yelled out at Julia as she was leaving the bus.

Finally, Julia was home again and she got ready to go to Laura’s house. As soon as her dad Antonio got there they were gone. Julia got to Laura’s house and stayed over like Laura had said. Julia and Laura heard the back door open and walked into the kitchen. Right in the middle of the kitchen where Laura’s 3 younger brothers, that loved to cause trouble. There was Ramon, Juan, and Menny.

“Hey you guys.” said Julia

“Hey” They all responded in unison.

“Why are you guys all wet?”

“Mom sprayed us with the hose because Menny caught the bush on fire next to the garage. Mom said he could have caught the garage on fire.” said Ramon.

“I did not! Don’t try to blame it on me!” yelled Menny.

“Yes you did, mom saw you!” said Juan.

“She said she saw one of us and it’s not my fault! You guys are the ones that wanted to see how the bush glows when it’s on fire. You told me it would look cool!”

“Well it did look pretty cool until mom ran outside yelling and spraying water everywhere.” said Ramon.

“Yeah man that was funny!” said Juan

Then when the boys were laughing tio David came in the back door with tia Sandra. The boys immediately stopped laughing and ran upstairs. Then tio David started yelling.

“I was in the garage fixing the car! What if the garage would have caught on fire!? What if the impala would have caught on fire! Demon children!”

“David!” yelled tia Sandra.

Then they started yelling in the kitchen. So Laura and Julia ran upstairs too. As soon as they got upstairs the boys slammed the bathroom door closed and locked it.

“It’s just us you losers!”

“Well better safe than sorry.” Said Juan.

Then they opened the door and the girls walked in. Just then they heard something thump in the attic. Then they looked around and saw that everyone was in the bathroom and they could still hear tio David and tia Sandra yelling downstairs.

“What was that?” Menny asked.

“I don’t know.” said Laura.

Then it thumped again.

Then Juan said “I think it is coming from the attic.”

They opened the bathroom door and walked out into the hall.

“Don’t be stupid you guys, it was the wind or something.” said Julia

Then the door to the attic blew open and everyone gasped. Then the boxes of junk from the top of the attic stares came tumbling down and they could see a shadow figure moving closer down the stairs from the attic. Then they all ran back into the bathroom and locked the door. Something started knocking and banging on the door as soon as they locked it.

“I hate new houses!” cryed Laura

Then it was quiet. Somebody was yelling at the top of there lungs. Everyone was bunched together in the shower. Julia had her hands on her head shielding her and then…….the end.(for now.)
