THE MIDNIGHT NIGHTMARE

BY RACHEL (Keep in mind that I was 11 when I wrote this story)

It was the night of the halloween dance Jonathan Johnson and his two sisters Kelli and Heather had just got home when they started tinking of things to do when all of the sudden they heard a knock at the door but they didn't want to answer it. So they locked the door. While they waited for who ever it was to leave they snuck past the door to their bedroom. They were wandering if they should go to the phone and call their parents and tell them that they should come home or not. They decided that if they interuped them at the conference that they wouldn't let them go to the next dance. They decided that they weren't going to call their parents but instead call their friends and have them spend the night. Now Kelli wasn't sure that they shouldn't have friends spend the night, but she didnt say anything because she was a little scared of the person that was knocking at the door earlier. Then she got so scared that she started crying and she cried herself to sleep. Jonathan thought a little about the person that was knocking at the door. He thought that it was stupid that he was scared of the person that was knocking at the door. So he dicided to go to sleep. Then in the middle of the night they heard a loud crash. It was the loud soud of the window break. Then Heather and Kelli started to cry softly and they started getting crowed by their friends because thay were scared too. Then they saw the door knob turn then they got real scared. Then they saw a guy with a gun. They started to panic but Kelli told them that if they stay quiet maybe that the man wouldn't see them, but she knew that it wouldn't work. She has seen stuff like this happen on television before and always someone gets killed and that made her heart jump up in her throat. So she didn't want to see so she held her breath till she fainted. Kevin one of the friends was up and he was scared too but she felt now that it was now her only choice to go out of their hideing spot.

"Excuse me sir are you looking for something?" asked Kevin. "Come here or I will or you will be in very deep troble." said the man.  "Why would you want to hurt me I didn't do anything to you, and besides you would get caught anyway once my parents com find me dead here." said Kevin. "Shutup, you stupid boy or I will loose my patience and shoot you." said the man.  "You tell me to shutup, why don't you." said Kevin. "Thats it I've had it!" shouted the man. and he shot him right in the neck and back and head. "Kevin!" Kelli shouted.  Then she started to cry. Oh Kevin you were my best friend. Someone help! help! please help me. "Kelli call 911 and hurry please or Kevin is going to die." shouted Heather. So Kelli ran as fast as she could to try to get to the phone and call 911 but it was to late Kevin was dead. Heather could tell because he didn't have a pulse. So she started looking out the window wishing for a miracle to happen but nothing happened. Oh Kevin if I would of stould up to my brother this wouldn't of happened." said Kelli. "Hi were home." said Mrs. Johnson. Ahhh!! what happened...help, help!" shouted Mrs. Johnson. "Say one more thing and you get it too." said the man. "Kelli did you call 911?" asked Heather. "Yes, They said they would be here as soon as they could. said Kelli.

Suddenly they heard the sirens of the ambulence and the police. They started hoping that Kevin was alright but Heather couldn't stand it anymore.

 "Is he going to be alright?" asked Heather. "Yes, he is going to be fine in a few weeks," said the doctor.

Now Heather thought he was going to be fine, but the doctor had lied because he didn't want her to get upset. She didn't know that Kevin was lying dead right in front of her but he looked like he was sleeping. Kelli was still wandering if she should kill herself because she thought it was her fault that Kevin got shot.

"Good bye Heather I hope you miss me when I'm gone," said Kelli. "What do you mean good bye and miss you when your gone?" asked Heather. "Don't you know, it was my fault that Kevin got shot. If I would of stood up to Johnathan and Kevin wouldn't of got shot," said Kelli. "It is not your fault and still what do mean by good bye?" said Heather. "What I'm trying to say is since it was ny fault even though you don't think it is I am still going to kill myself and don't you try to stop because I have a gun and a knife right here with me," said Kelli. "Please don't I will miss you to much and so will Johnathan. "That makes me want to cry," said Heather.

Then suddenly Johnathan heard a loud scream and bang. Kelli had just killed Heather by stabbing her with a knife and shot herself in the chest where the heart is and Heather was there lying there with a knife in the middle of her heart. Then Johnathan started crying and he ran to the doctor and yelled help my sisters are dead. He kept on yelling that till the doctor came into that room.

"Are they going to be alright?" asked Johnathan. "I'm so sorry John but there boath almost dead they can talk so I would say your last words to them. Be quick they only have about two hours or less.," said the doctor. "Oh I wish you wouldn't of tried to killed yourself but the doctor said that you are going to get what you wanted, he said that you are going to die in two hours I wish you were going to be alright," said Johnathan. "Well it was my fault that Kevin was shot because it wasn't his time to die it was mine. Please don't miss me I have to leave you now I will miss you, well no I won't because I will be dead, good bye. Good bye Johnathan I love you."said Kelli "Kelli no Kelli oh it wasn't your time or your fault. How are you Heather, Heather no no," said Johnathan.

Suddenly there was a voice he could here it was Kelli's voice but she wasn't talking because she was dead. Johnathan heard the voice but he didn't really know where the voice was coming from.

"Johnathan, Johnathan I need your help. Please help me. I know I'm dead but I long for this last request, I want you to get the ghost powder from the ghost of Kevin. But hurry because he knows that you want it and he will do anything to stop you."said Kelli's voice. "Where are you coming from Kelli you are dead?" asked Johnathan.

Kelli didn't answer. So Johnathan went off in search of the ghost powder that Kelli wanted. He finaly found it and was about to grab it an he herd a loud scream for help. The voice he herd was Kelli's voice.

"Kelli what is it?" asked Johnathan.

Suddenly he saw the ghost of Kevin.

"What do you want Kevin" asked Johathan. "I want you to stop trying to get my ghost powder!" said Kevin. "Where Kelli's ghost?" asked Johnathan. "I killed her, she is no longer my friend. I decided that since she had no value to me that I would kill her ghost as well. Besides she was the one who let me die, she said so herself." said Kevin. "Is there anything I can do to take her place? I really liked her and now she can't even haunt me. said Johnathan. "Well there is something you can do you must preform a harsh but simple task. If you really want to know the task is this: first you must find the sharpest knife you have in this house then a pan. Heres what you must do with these two things. First you must take the sharp knife and cut a big whole on your chest right above your heart then put the skin you cut off in the pan. Then you must stab yourself in the heart then if you can survive that long cut all the veins that connect to your heart. "If this is realy the task I have to do than I'll do it!" said Johnathan.

Then he started to preform. All his friends heard a realy loud scream AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! This enormously loud scream came from Johnathan.  Kevin then took a rope and tie it around Johnathan's neck and hung him on the coat rack. Blood dripped from his chest. Johnathan was amazingly still alive. Johnathan suddenly saw Heather. 

"Is it you Heather are you alive?" asked Johnathan. "Yes its me Johnathan. I am not the person I used to be Johnathan."said Heather. "I am dying Heather I will miss...you..." said Johnathan.

And a single tear rolled down Johnathan's cheek. Then suddenly all  the blood started comming back to Johnathan and then his heart was restored and he had no wounds or anything. He was completely healed.

"By the way I didn't tell you the other part of the preformance John. The other part is that you must die 10 times so the pain goes on and on for a long time." said Kevin. "So how must I die the second time?" asked Johnathan. "I must choke you to death." said kevin. Then with one yank of the rope Kevin started choking Johnathan. Johnathan couldn't breathe he was just hanging there with the knife in his hands. Johnathan suddenly heard a loud pop. It was his neck breaking.

"Kevin, why must i go through all this pain to save one person?" Johnathan cried. "Its no fun only dying once, and besides I brought Heather back to life to watch you be killed" Kevin laughed.

Kevin continued to kill Johnathan the rest of the time. Heather was screaming while she watched Johnathan die all ten times. By the tenth one was being finished Johnathan droped to the grownd dead. Heather was crying more than ever. She went over to Johnathan and took the knife that he had in his hands and tried to kill herself but Kevin wouldn't let her. Finally Heather gave up and said "We will all miss you Johnathan. We all loved you." Heather and Kelli and the rest of their friends watched as Kevin's ghost got rid of the body of Johnathan Johnson. Heather finally said to Kelli "I love you sis and I am glad to have you back."
