Steve turned his back on them and walked slowly into the house.

He couldnt believe he had lost the bet. What am I going to do? he asked himself as the rotting door creaked open. There are two choices: running out of the house and being called a coward or spending five minutes in the haunted mansion on the outskirts of the town. Taking a deep breath, he stepped all the way inside the foyer and let the door shut behind him. It was pretty much what he expected to find: pictures knocked off the walls and layers upon layers of dust. Well, here goes nothing! he said out loud as he turned around and looked longingly at the door. Feeling a gust of wind behind him, he whirled around to see what it was from: there, right before his eyes, was a translucent silhouette. He only saw it for a few moments before he turned around and ran. He skipped steps on his way down, not caring if the floor gave way beneath him. He wasnt going to tell anyone: they wouldnt believe him.

Writing: story

You have been asked to write a story for a student magazine beginning or ending with the words: Steve turned his back on them and walked slowly into the house. Write your story in 120-180 words. Only a legend Dozens of water drops were falling from the sky. No moon,no stars,not a single light to guide him through the darkness. And,as if it wasnt enough,he was alone near the woods,miles away from the closest village and his car was broken That thing he hit which came out of nowhere made him lose control and.. What exactly was it? No matter what happened,he had to find shelter... It was something out there,and even though it was hurt it was still alive. He grabbed his bag and a flashlight,and entered the forest. Step by step, Steve was discovering a new world: the old trees seemed to reveal a secret The rain stopped but the trees creak was scaring him more than a million thunders. Finally,when he was thinking to give up,he found something that looked like a castel Now..this IS weird.. he said. Then he saw it.The thing he hit. Was it a wolf? His eyes were looking so human In the blink of an eye,the wolf dissapeared and a little boy was lying in the same place..surrounded by other men. But it couldnt be true Werewolves are just a legend I must have hit my head or something. Steve turned his back on them and slowly walked into the house.
