Her mom signed her up. The next day the girl started walking to school when she suddenly felt a cold hand on her shoulder. She turned around to see the long fingers of a vampire. The vampire smiled with pointy fangs. "What's your name?" the vampire asked. "I'm Lily," the new girl said. "What's your name?" "Amy," the vampire replied and then, looking at Lily more closely, asked, "Are you a goblin? Or a ghost? Or a frankenstein? You don't look like another vampire." "I'm just a girl," Lily replied. The vampire looked confused. "But this is a school for monsters!" she said. Lily smiled. "I like monsters. Do you like me?" Amy thought about it and finally smiled too. "I do," she said. And they soon became fast friends. And even though she wasn't a monster, Lily really enjoyed Mira Spirits School of Ghouls.

There once was a girl named Anna who was turning 15 years old. She woke up on her birthday and smiled because it was her birthday. She got up to get some cereal for breakfast, but she noticed a large and strange package right outside of her bedroom. "What's this?" she thought. "A birthday present?" So she carefully started to unwrap it. The wrapping paper was silver and beautiful. She carefully tore the paper. Inside was... Nothing. Anna looked on every edge, but there was absolutely nothing in it. She noticed a note though. It was written on boring paper, but it was so touching to Anna. That day she learned the importance of giving to others.

"That's weird," the new girl said. "I'll get some candles," Shanta replied and so she brought some candles out. Then the lights came back on. And then the TV turned on all by itself but it was just static on the other end. The new girl looked really scared. "What is going on?" she asked.

That's right--it dropped out of the sky and the whole world went dark, except for the small light from the moon and stars. Frightened, the people of earth came together to decide what to do. A mother screamed in horror for she was a mother of 21 kids and couldn't keep track of all of them. Finally a girl screamed "STOP" " I know were all scared, but there is an easy solution to this" she said. "We must go up in space and live on the moon". Everyone looked at her. "OK" they all yelled. That day they set off for the moon in a rocket ship. When they got there they made Ginny(That's the name of the girl who thought of the idea) The princess of the moon. Ginny laughed and turned all of the townsfolk into alien minions. "Ha fools" She said in an evil voice. "Now your my minions, and you must obey my every command". The alien minions were shocked, but did what they were told.

(Remember the first story you wrote about the princess of the moon:)

Nice, Bekah! I like how you tied this story in with the first story. It's like a prequel!

A Spooky poem

There once was a monster who was terribly hungry
His tummy rumbled and jumbled and jumped.
He was so hungry that he went outside to find a meal in the day
The day is the time when a monster is forbidden to play.

And what he saw when he went out in the sun,
Was enough to scare the pants off anyone!
There were HUMANS at play--they were the scariest things
That the littlest monster had ever seen.

The monster was frozen, he couldn't move at all
And a human girl saw him, she was pretty and small
She came to the monster and said, "Want to play?"
And he thought, "Maybe these humans aren't as scary anyway."

Talking to animals

Anna was five years old when she realized she could talk to animals. It happened one day when she was playing in her yard and she heard someone say, "Hey, that's my mouse!" Quickly she turned around but didn't see anyone there. She started playing again but then she heard the voice say, "I want the head!" Finally, she realized that he was two of the neighbor's cats fighting over a mouse. Anna had always loved animals, but she soon discovered that the gift was a blessing and a curse. Anne used her powers wherever she went and most of the time only listened to animals and nothing else. One day her mom took her to the doctor. Anne was so distracted she wouldn't and soon found that she couldn't hear anything else, but animals. Soon Anne got quite tired of only hearing animals. How she dearly wished she could hear humans again. The next day Anne had another doctors appointment. They found out it was just a piece of lint in her ear. Now Anne can hear humans and animals and all is well.

Mr. Thanksgiving

Mr. Thanksgiving was a turkey, but this wasn't any ordinary turkey. He was a proud turkey. Who had lushes feathers, and a beautiful beak. He loved being the center of attention, and having every turkey girl go gaga over him. One day on the last Thursday of November he noticed he was a little overweight. "That won't do!" he thought, because he wanted to be hot and muscly. But before he could go do some exercises, a big truck pulled up. Someone got out of the truck and threw him into the van. He was so scared! He flapped his wings and gobbled for help but no one heard him. Finally he was taken to a butcher shop where they were going to cook him for thanksgiving. But the butcher took one look at him and said, "This one is not fat enough! He is too muscly." And so in the end, the turkey's pride and vanity saved his life.

The Greedy Man

There once was a man who was very greedy. He wanted gold more than anything else in the world, but he also liked diamonds and rubies and emeralds. He made lots of money by stealing from other people and then he would sit in his room and home and count all of his coins and his precious stones. But one day, a little girl moved in next door to the man. The next day the man decided he would take a walk, and pick up all the change that had fallen out of peoples pockets, but little did he know that that same morning the new girl had decided to take a walk to. The man was very much enjoying his walk when suddenly the new girl walked right up next to him. "Hi" she said. The man ignored her gesture and kept walking. She realized what the man was doing and said hi again. This time he responded. "Have any money?" he asked. She was shocked by his response, but continued walking. Finally he got the nerves and looked at her. Even though she was sweaty she was the prettiest woman he had ever seen. He started up on a conversation, and soon they went on a date. They still aren't married, but there happy and maybe one day the greedy man will get the nerves to give the woman of his dreams something in return for making him happy.

But the water kept slipping through her fingers and so she wasn't able to carry it into town. She ran into town and yelled, "Quick! Bring your pails and buckets and cups! There's lovely water up here!" So everyone came out of their houses with pails and buckets and cups and followed Sofia to the stream. Everyone was laughing and drinking and playing in the water -- Sofia had never seen everyone so happy. But it wasn't until that night that the greatest surprise of all came. The water was magic water that healed everyone. People who couldn't walk or had bad eyesight could suddenly walk and see! And best of all, Sofia's poor lonely heart was healed and now she had so many friends.

Princess Poem

In a castle, far away                                                                                                                     
There lived a princess, locked away
She waited for her prince to come                      
But wished that she could just go home

One day she got some courage and
Escaped the tower without a man
But when she landed on the ground
She heard a horrible monster sound ...

She looked up as fast as a bunny
She thought it was her dad so she yelled
"THAT'S NOT FUNNY"
But out of the blue a a dragon arose

"Who are you?" the dragon said.
 "A princess," but her face went red
Because she was so frightened that
She fainted on the spot, kersplat.

When the princess opened up her eyes
She found to her surprise
That she was in a fancy bed
With gold and lacy and satin spread

When footsteps came, she looked up then
At a handsome prince who said, "I'm Ben"
"But where's the dragon that was here?"
"It's me, a horrid curse, my dear"
They fell in love instantly and got married on Christmas Eve

Trick or Treat

Sarah loved trick or treating it was her favorite thing to do (on Halloween of coarse), so when Halloween came around Sarah was so excited that she decided she was going to trick or treat at every house on her block. When Halloween came around Sarah was so excited. She started going to the houses that she went to every year first, then she went to the other side of the block. Sarah was a little scared, but wasn't going to let her fear discourage her. She slowly walked up to the first door, and knocked on the handle. Slowly the door creaked open....but no one was there, only a dark house. Sarah peeked her head inside and said nervously, "Hello?" She took one step in and said it again. "Hello?" Suddenly the door slammed shut behind her and she was alone in the dark. She reached out for the door knob and wiggled it frantically, but it was locked. There was an evil laugh down the hall and Sarah was so scared that she was frozen in place and couldn't move. There was the sound of the match being struck and then a candle in the darkness. The person holding the candle was a witch with a pointy nose and a long chin with a big wart at the end. The witch laughed again. Sarah screamed and put her hands over her eyes. "Here for candy?" the witch asked. Sarah slowly moved her hands. "Huh?" The witch held out a bowl of candy. "Happy Halloween!" And the witch and Sarah became good friends. And every year after that, Sarah went to trick or treat at the witch's house.
