Halloween

A Halloween challenge huh? I’m sure you’ll get cemeteries and Camp Crystal Lake. Serial killers and a group of friends them basically they all die in one way in the end. When I think of scary, I think of me growing up in Vallejo, California.  Me, mom and sperm donor of a dad. Scary to me is wondering if my brothers were going to change me as a baby. Might or might not walk that day. Scary is sitting in court pointing out who the man who hurt me. Having the best influence life could have given me , taken from me . Waking up broke and hungry these things are far from funny. Wanted me to write a Halloween story making it original not boring. I live a Halloween story it’s called my reality

On a dark cold foggy night, Susie is overwhelmed with joy. It’s her first-year trick or treating without her family. just her and her best friend JJ. 12 years old, matching costumes and the night has just begun. An hour in JJ ends up calling it a night and going home. Still walking Susie’s sees a familiar face. The man who sells water at the school games. As she tries to give a brief “Hello”, all she smells is chloroform. Snatched in plain sight no one saw. Now 3 hours later she is awake, cold and bleeding. She’s been brutally raped and bruised bad. Tries to scream but her tongue has cut out. The suddenly feeling heat, her body sweating profusely.  The van she is in catches fire, now burning alive about to die. Can’t kick because she’s been hog tied. There’s a big BOOM now she’s burnt up, Susie is dead. No one knows because it’s only been a couple hours and she lied about where she was going out to. Now she’s likely be on the back of a milk carton like the other kids. If she told the truth, the likelihood of her being found would be soon . But it’s too late she gone “poof"
