As Tim and Annie settled into their new house in California, their mother had sent them out to fetch some fire wood. Tim thought that this was odd, since their mother didn’t tell them where to find the wood, but he didn’t mind. When Tim and Annie were searching for some fire wood, they didn’t know that they were followed by someone or something. Suddenly, they both heard some pebbles fall. When they both looked up no one was there. “Who’s there?” Tim said boldly. When no one answered, Annie threw a pebble and instantly a loud screech happened! Before they knew it, Tim and Annie were running for their lives and screaming in fear! After this they ran home to get help but when they reached their house their parents were not home. Then all of a sudden they heard another banging on the door. They were both very scared so they went and hid in a nearby closet. Once they got into the closet they saw something they had never seen before. It was like it was a secret door in the wall. They both slowly walked into it and they saw something that scared them both. It was some type of horse hippo thing. It was so scary that Annie tried to run back through the door, but there was a problem; the door wasn’t there anymore. For a moment after that everything went white then Tim woke up. It all had just been a dream. Both of them were okay and there was no secret door or passage way to get into a fake world. They were safe. At least for now....
