Under The Rug

Under The Rug

One day in a beautiful forest called Seneca State Forest, located in West Virginia there was a big cabin with a wonderful family. There was a old man named Bob and his mom named Mom. Sometimes they go fishing at the river with their friends or go hiking with their brothers and sisters. But… all that fun and excitement will go down the drain on this trip.

One morning in the cabin Bob was really tired from the hike they had yesterday. So he was still sleeping.

“Bob” said Mom.

“What” said Bob.

“Time to eat breakfast” said Mom.

“5 more minutes” said Bob in a tired voice.

“OK but don’t blame me if your pancakes gets cold” said Mom.

Bob ignored her and went back to sleep. He was sleeping for 20 minutes and when he went down stair. Suddenly Bob heard a scream.

“AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!” said Mom.

“What happened” said Bob.

“It the Demon Rat AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH” screamed Mom.

The Demon Rat is a small black rat that spits venom and he scratches you with his big nasty claws.

“Hissss” said the Demon Rat.

Bob immediately grabbed Mom’s arm and ran out the door to the camp fire.

When they got there Bob said “What happened how did the Demon rat get in there.”

“Well I was cutting some cheese for lunch then Demon rat crashed through the window.” said Mom trembling

“I’m going to see if the cost is clear okay” said Bob

“Okay” said Mom

Bob slowly went in the house and saw the Demon rat going under the rug. He got a mug and threw it at the Demon rat but he missed “Crash” the mug was so loud that it scared the Demon rat and ran out the window. Mom came in she said “Is it gone” and gave Bob a big hug. Everything has normal from then, but two weeks passed and it happened again. The Demon rat was in the house searching for cheese. Bob was coming down the stairs and he saw the Demon rat. When the Demon rat saw Bob the rat went under the rug. Bob got so angry that he grabbed a chair and smashed it on the Demon rat he smashed it so hard that it crushed all its bones.

“What happened?” cried Mom.

“I killed the Demon rat!” said Bob.

“It came back?!” said Mom.

“You deserve some pancakes” said Mom.

“Yay!” said Bob.

One minute later they saw a big cyclops, a cyclops was a giant with one eye, they immediately split up. The cyclops was banging his club all over the place. Jack shot his grappling hook around the cyclops legs the cyclops fell down. Steve tied his long rope around the cyclops arms so he wouldn’t get up then Steve chopped his head off. They were getting hungry so they ate half the cyclops.

 

Now they are looking for a chimera, the monster has a head of a lion, a head of a goat, and a head of a snake. Steve and Jack were walking for half an hour until they heard a loud roar “ROAR!!” they ran towards the loud noise and sure enough it was the chimera!!!
