Starting at Sunset Chapter 3

Monday seemed to come to quickly. I got all my school books ready and I headed out the door and to my bus stop. I was only 15, I couldn't drive yet. As I got on the bus, I thought that I saw Ryan, but why? His brother drives him. There was only one thing I could think of. He was stalking me. When I got to school, I was watched by more than half of the Sophomore grade, mostly guys. I didn't mind them much until one guy came up to me and broke out into conversation.

"Hi, my name Thomas. Will you go out with me?"

I could seriously not believe what I was hearing. I'm being asked out by a boy I just met, that I hardly knew.

"Um, thanks but no." With that I walked away. I heard a little chuckling sound coming from behind me. I turned and saw Ryan what-ever-his-last-name is looking at me smiling.

"Ha, you know you just turned down the most popular guy in the grade?"

"So, I just got to this place what did you want me to say?"

"I was actually hoping that you'd say no." He held out his hand. "By the way, I'm Ryan Mitchell."

I held my hand out to his. "Dani Schulz."

He looked at me. "German?"

"Half."

"Huh." He looked at me and smiled. "Shall we?" he asked showing me to the front door.

"Sure, why not?" I smiled as he lead me to the school. I thought I was in a dream. This totally cute guy was walking me into my first day of school. As we walked I saw Thomas looking at me with disgust, like I would want to hang out with this "unpopular" guy instead of him. I made through my first three classes, Biology, Algebra 2, and Government. At lunch, I sat with Ryan and a couple of girls from my Government class. I think their names were something along the lines of Ally and Elaine. Ryan pointed out everyone to me. Ally looked at me smiling. For sometime, it was not a comforting feeling. Her teeth were crooked just a little bit, her hair in a rats nest, but she was funny. Elaine was a little different. She had perfect hair and perfect teeth. It was strange for me to be in the presence of two popular girls. At my old school I was usually called a nerd. But life was already changing for me in Montana. I was making my way to the top, I had a good group of friends, and I had Ryan to watch my back.

Starting at Sunset Chapter 2

The first part was about the hills and the trees. Next came my new school and I zoomed in on a particular boy. He was tall, with brown hair and deep blue eyes. It turned out to be a beautiful dream. He reached out to me and took me close. He leaned out to kiss me and then...I woke up. I some how knew that this boy I saw was real. But I was just getting my hopes up. I woke up to a beautiful sunny morning. I went downstairs and smelled the sweet scent of bacon and muffins, my favorite Saturday breakfast. I smiled at Tim. I haven't talked about Sarah for a while. And for some reason I was glad. Any way, I sat down and ate. I was done in what seemed like three seconds.

"Do you want me to show around today?" Tim asked, looking at me with hope.

"Sure," I replied, in a some-what excited voice.

"Great."

We finished eating our food and I ran upstairs to get dressed. I felt as I was being watched though. I looked out the window and I saw the leaves of the tree outside my window move. I looked out the window, but there was no breeze.

"Just a squirrel," I said to myself.

I finished with my 15 minutes of getting ready. I went back downstairs and Tim was waiting for me by the door. We walked out together and as he got into the driver's seat, I got into the passenger seat. When Tim turned the key the radio came on. And lucky for me, the songs here were the same in California. We spent about an hour and a half in the car. Tim showed me all the shopping malls, hoping that I would go there with future girlfriends. Then we passed all the little shops and grocery store. And last but not least, we passed my new school. Outside there was a small parking lot with a single car. Who would be here on a Saturday? I looked closer and I saw a boy. He was tall, with brown hair and deep blue eyes. It was the boy from my dream!

"Dad, who's that guy?" I asked as we passed by.

"Um, Ryan something. I can't remember his last name." He smiled at me. "Interested?"

"No, just curious." I looked out the window. I didn't know what to say. I just found out that the boy from my dream was real, he was there when I was picking out my outfit in my pajamas, and climb a tree that had no branches.

"Does he go to Lavina High?"

"Yea, him and his two brothers. The oldest is a senoir and the younger one is in eighth grade."

"So he's in the middle?"

"Yup."

Maybe this year won't be so bad. Maybe with Ryan around, Monday won't be such a bad time to start school.

Starting at Sunset Chapter 1

I could not believe what my ears were hearing. My parents were getting a divorce! I had to live with my dad, and I really did not like my dad. And I don't think he liked me much either. But I had to go and live with him in Montana. Montana was my favorite state; that's where I was born. But to live there permanently with my dad? I thought it was the end of the world coming early. I would have to leave as soon as the divorce files were put through. I officially hated my life.

A week later, I was on a plane to Montana. To the end of the world. I kept on looking back, hoping to see California and it's awesome lights. But all I could see was green. Nothing else. My dad kept on saying that I would love it in Montana. The house that we were moving to was a two-bedroom house with one bathroom and an incredibly small kitchen and living room. My dad said that I would also like the High School that he was planning to put me in. Apparently we were moving to someplace called Golden Valley, and I would be forced to go to some school called Lavina High School. I smiled at him, trying to look excited. I picked up my purse (it was actually just a small bag that I could just sling over my shoulder), and pulled out a picture of Jeffery, my ex-boyfriend whom I had to break up with because of this horrible event in my life. My dad looked at the picture and then looked at me.

"You know he still likes you Dani," he said in his glad to be rid of him tone. He used that tone whenever I talked about Jeffery. "I'm sure that you'll find someone new here."

"Yeah right."

"You never know."

I remained as quiet as I could for the rest of the flight. After we landed, my dad and I had a taxi take us to our new home and my new nightmare. As we pulled into the driveway, I thought that I was going to puke. In California, we lived in a huge house with our very own chef, who actually taught me to cook. But this house was the smallest thing in the world. I really wanted to scream.

We went inside, and I ran to the top of the stairs. The top floor was the smallest thing in the world. I found the little bathroom, and then I walked into this incredibly small room. I claimed it as mine. The mover guys brought in my bed and my desk.

I sat in my room until dinner was ready. My dad was an amazing cook. When I was home alone with my mom I always called him Tim. When I was home alone with Tim, I called my mom Sarah. So now that I was living with my dad, I would have to call my mom Sarah. I walked into the kitchen in my pajamas and took a seat. It was really quiet eating with Tim. Then finally I spoke.


"So when does school start?"


"Monday for you. If I was mean and abusive like your mother, I would make you go to school tomorrow."


I forgot about how powerful my mother's words were to me. She favored my boyfriend more than me. She usually liked to yell at me to see my reaction. She always said she loved me though. And I loved her, but she was too mean to me. Tim was different. He knew that I needed a better home. I didn't really like Tim at the time, though, so at first I wasn't too happy about moving to Montana with him. Now I felt like I was getting used to him.


"So, why can't I go tomorrow?"


"Do you want to?"


"Sort of. But tomorrow's a Friday, and it would be pointless for my first day to be on a Friday."


"OK, we'll wait till Monday."


I smiled at him and finished eating my soup. After dinner, I helped with the dishes and then sat down on the couch and turned on the TV. Tim joined me a little bit later. After an hour, I decided to go to bed. I had nothing else to do, so whatever.

In my room, I pulled out the book that I brought with me. A little while later, I turned out the light and fell asleep. And as soon as I fell asleep, I began to dream about the so called beauties of Montana.

Things that go Bump in the Night Part 7 (the end)

The kids jumped for joy. And a shocker to all, through all the excitment, Drew kissed Molly. Everyone awed. Molly shot them a look that immediatly made them shut up. Tony took out his cell phone and called the police. He went over and put his arm around Chelsea. Andy looked at both couples in disgust.

"Now why don't have a girl?"

Everyone laughed at this, including Andy. And so, they all lived happily ever after. Andy got a girl, Tony became a famous author, Chelsea and Molly became famous actors, Drew stayed Drew, the funny guy who didn't have to change, according to Molly, and Steve, well you can guess.

Years later, Drew and Molly were married, along with Chelsea and Tony, Andy and Jessica (his girl). They all told their kids the amazing story about what happened to them when they were young. The story was passed on to the children. And now I'm passing it on to you. The world is better with a good story. Remember that. And now is where the story ends.

Things that go Bump in the Night Part 6

Everyone stood there in shock. It all seemed to make sense though. Except for the whole kidnapping the kids and stuff. That they didn't know about. They all ran back to their cabin and there they saw a small white piece of paper on the table. Tony went over and looked at it. He opened it up. His eyes grew big as he read.



"What is it?" Molly asked.



"It's from our good friend Steve. The one who is after us."



"What does it say?" Chelsea asked peering over his shoulder.



"I don't think that you want to know," Tony replied.



"Come on, tell us," Drew said.



Tony looked down at the paper, cleared his throat, and began to read aloud.



"I now know that I cannot deny, that tonight one of you will....."



He didn't finish.



"Go on tell us," Molly said.



"....die," Tony finally finished after a while.



"What the heck?! That's it? Some scary freak," Drew said sarcastically.



"Oh shut up," Chelsea said to him, annoyed.



"So what do we do now?" Andy asked.

"I actually thought of a clever plan. How clever it is, is something I don't know."

"How about we do what we have been doing," Molly suggested. "Fool the freak."

"How?" Chelsea asked.

"Easy," Drew said. "We do the same thing that we've always done. We set out out a perfect trap and then we'll just have to wait until Steve falls into it."

"OK, but does that mean you know what the trap is?"

Drew took a deep breath, opened his mouth and then closed it. He shook his head and Chelsea gave him a look of disgust. Tony, Molly, and Andy were watching this little fight go back and forth, with their heads turning depending on which person was talking. After it ended, they started laughing.

As the light from the sun went down, the five decided to work on their plan. They dressed in their black clothes and headed out into the night. They stopped at the supply hut and took out five shovels and a big black tarp. They went on this so called "short-cut" that Drew had found. They finally got to Steve's cabin after what seemed like forever. They began digging right in front of his porch. The kids knew from all those recent attacks that to stay up all night, Steve would have to sleep all day. They knew that they had to work quickley.

They had dug six feet into the ground before Steve woke up. They quietly put the tarp on top of the hole. They ran behind trees and turned just in time for the show. Steve, not knowing what happened while he was asleep..... fell straight into the hole.

Boys

Boys can be awesome people. But here is the problem. You're best friends in elementary school and no one is mean to you. But then you hit middle school and then they become the people you hoped that they wouldn't become. They can be really mean, or make really bad choices, like drugs and stuff. They may seem nice, but that's just to lure you into their trap and then, sometimes not even a day later, they turn your heart into mush. And that great friendship that you had in elementary school is now gone. And sometimes it's impossible to get it back. Sometimes you never can. Take me for example. I used to have a lot of guy friends. Two of my best frinds were boys. And they came on my list of friends before all the girls. But then one moved before first grade and the other I haven't seen in three years. The last time I saw my friend Manny, I was 10. The last time I saw Kyle, I was 7. Major age differnce. Yea. It really stinks. When I got into middle school, I thought that guys would be the same, easy to become friends type. But I soon found out that these boys were perverted, mean, and had very stupid and mean jokes that were more like insults. There was no way I could make friends with any of these boys. But then I met a really nice guy who wasn't any of this perverted stuff. We were friends at the beginning but later on in the year he became popular and left me behind. I still liked him as a friend. So I tried to straighten things out. Instead I was called a stalker. I couldn't believe him. So this goes to show that boys can be good friends one year, and then they totally ditch you. So beware all girls who have really good friends who are guys or have boyfriends, boys are great at the beginning but just wait, they'll get there.

This is about my friend and other guys in this school.
Make good choices guys.

Things that go Bump in the Night Part 5

Everyone looked at Molly wondering what she meant. They knew that Drew wasn't evil, but Molly seemed to think differently. They had no clue what was going on in her brain.



"What do you mean there might be more to him than meets the eye?" Chelsea asked.



"Well, here are the facts," Molly said. "He is kidnapped by a guy who looks exactly like him. Supposedly a man in a mask. Then the next thing we know, a body shows up at our door and it's wearing the same cloak that the kidnapper was wearing but then we see the kidnapper in a deep blood red cloak."



"So basicly you're saying it could be Drew who did all this?" Tony asked.



"Maybe, I don't know yet."





The next day, after lunch, the remaining people from cabin fifteen went to check out the grounds for any trace of Drew. They looked every where for anything. Then a little bit of luck came their way. As Chelsea was looking behind a big oak when she found a wallet. On the front it had a "D". She opened it, hoping to find out it was Drew's. But instead,it belonged to someone named Jack. But why was there a "D" on the front when it had an ID belonging to Jack? Then she looked up and saw that there was a heart cut into the oak tree. It wasn't there before. But there was a problem. It wasn't for love at all. It was a grave.

Chelsea called the others over to see her discovery. They all stood there in amazment. They started to look around for any latch or door.

Finally Tony found a little door leading into the tree. He opened it and Drew fell out!

Everyone looked in horror as Tony picked up Drew's arm and let go. Drew was all limp. They thought he was dead so they put him back in the tree. Just as they were walking away, Andy heard a groan. It was coming from the tree.

"I think he's alive!" He exclaimed.

Everyone looked at him as he ran back to the tree, opened the door, and Drew hit the ground, but this time he made a sound as he fell. He slowly got up, with the help of Andy. The girls were so happy to see Drew. Especially Molly (she has a crush on him). Tony was also happy to see his good friend. The four helped Drew get back to the cabin. There, he told them what happened.

"I was blindfolded but I could still here the voice. It sounded like..."

"What?" Molly asked. "Go on."

"Sounded like Steve," Drew finished.

"What?!" The rest said at the same time.

"I'm just telling you what I heard."

Tony looked at Molly.

"And you thought it was Drew."

Molly looked at him in disgust.

"It was a possablity stupid."

The five finally got a good nights sleep. They knew that camp ended in just a few days. If the killer was still out there, he would probably follow them. So they came up with another plan. This time from a safe distance. They set out a deep blue cloak (apperantly the killer had some kind of color issus were he couldn't stay with one color). The afternoon came before the killer. Finally, a man came out and found the cloak. He took off the red one and put on the blue one. The kids looked at the figure in shock. It was Steve!

Things That go Bump in the Night Part 4

Back at cabin fifteen, Chelsea was pacing back and forth, Molly was freaking out, Tony was reading a book about spying and freeing captives, Andy was writing his will, and Drew was, well, gone. Or at least that's what everyone thought.



At nine o'clock sharp, a knock came from the door. The four kids rushed into defenses they had made, basicly just tables and chairs on their sides, and in their hands there were kitchen knives, metal rods, and clubs. Tony went up to the door and opened it. He quickly ran behind his defense and turned around just in time to see the person standing at the door fall to the ground. The four came out from their defenses and made a circle around the body. Molly almost screamed when she looked moe carefully at the body. There was a knife in it's back



The body was wereing all black. Andy pulled back the hood. It was Tony!!!!!!!!



"But how are you dead when you're standing right here?" Andy asked.



"I don't know," Tony replied. "Well, it's no dummy, it's real."



"I came to this camp for fun, not for a murder and a kidnapping mystery," Chelsea complained.



Molly was not involed in this conversation. She was to busy looking outside to see if she could get any idea of where the man who killed Tony, or whatever. Suddenly she saw a man in a deep blood red cloak come out of the bushes.



"You guys come here quick!" she said. The others left the body were it was. They walked over to the window and looked out. They came just in time to see the man disappear into the bushes.

"Who do you think that was?" Andy asked.

"I don't know," Molly replied. "But who ever it was, he's gone now. But believe me, he'll be back. In the mean time, we need to find Drew. There might be more to him than meets the eye."

The Dark Knight

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! It was one of the best and coolest movies in the world!!!!!!!! Heath Ledger, the Joker, was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! Micheal Caine and Christan Bale were awesome too, but not as awesome as Heath Ledger! And Araon Eckhart was so awesome as Harvey Dent/Two -Face.

Maggie Lawson was a lot better as Rachel than Katie Holmes. Instead of doing an awesome movie that everyone wanted to see and loved, Katie decided to go join the cast of "Mad Money".

Nice choice Katie. *cough, bad choice, cough*. This movie is a must see. If you haven't, see it now! This movie is rated PG-13, but it ROX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
