The Cursed Room So, there is a school called Appleby elementary. Inside that school is classes. And of all of those classes there is one that everybody is afraid of. Or, at least was. But that is besides the point. The class is 4 A. I honestly didn't know why everyone was so scared of it. Until I found out why... So, as you can probably imagine at this point, I am the new kid at the school. Just walks around, shy but confident. I have very little friends, but at least I know that I have some. I have Michail, Jude, and Jason. They are good friends, but I still wished that I was at my old school sometimes. It was boring here, and there was evidently nothing to do but to sit in class and listen to the teacher. But, there was one thing that I know no one else would do except for me. Go into that room. I actually wanted to a little, despite the rumors of ghosts and creepy baby's that said "Dzusma" all the time. All I knew was what language that word was in. Polish. I was too scared to look it up at that time, mainly because of... well... how creepy that word could actually be. But, with my idiotic thinking, I ended up looking it up on google. It said that dzusma meant death and destruction. I really didn't like that. "Gosh, that doesn't sound so good." I shivered because of that definition. Me and Michail met up at the end of the hall to talk about it. "Dude, you know that dzusma word that rumors say that the babies say?" My thought process went backwards after his response. "Yeah, I know what it means. It means plague, which means death and destruction." "Well then how aren't you creeped out!?" I didn't know how he wasn't scared out of his mind. "Because i'm not a wuss like you." He chuckled. "Oh, be quiet. In fact, to prove that i'm not a wuss, i'll go in that room-for five bucks." "Ummmmm... ok. I'll give you the 5$ tomorrow." And with that, I slowly crept up to the intimidating room. I felt like my brain was trying to get me scared at this very moment. I felt a shudder in my spine, but I kept on going. I slowly opened the door. I walked in. There was nothing there! "Michail, there is nothing to wor-" My voice was suddenly interrupted by a transparent hand that grasped my mouth, shoved me down, opened the window, and flew out the window with me. "Michail!" I was scared out of my mind. And with that said, I was dragged through the air and suddenly stopped so fast that the ghost, or whatever that thing was, flung me into the ditch. Then he grabbed me, and continued to fly farther and farther into the woods. "WOULD YOU STOP AND LET ME GO!" I wondered what he was doing to me in increasing panic. My mind raced so fast that I almost past out. "BLEH!" I was getting nauseated from all the circling, and I finally couldn't take it anymore. After about half 15 minutes, he finally let me go. "So, what are you up to, disturbing my-and my friends privacy?" He asked me. I slowly got up, my eyes tracing in all directions after was looked like a failed bike ride in mid-air. "I-I-" "Quit stammering and spit it out already!" "I didn't know you lived there. I thought that it was all a hoax or something. I don't believe in ghosts, or at least i didn't until now." "Well, are you going to disturb my privacy again?!" My mind, still wondering what the heck was going on, slowly began to fill in the missing pieces in the picture. Either way, I responded. "Y-Yes sir. I will not disturb your privacy." "Well then.... GET BACK TO CLASS!!!" "Ok, ok." I was surprised that he couldn't, or didn't fly me back. So, I walked about 15 minutes back to class, and then I was greeted by ms. Almund with a not so pleasant voice, or attitude for that matter. "MASON!!! WHERE WERE YOU!" "I-I-I was in the bathroom ma'am. I am truly sorry." "Well, since you're a new kid, i'll let you pass. BUT NO MORE OF THAT. UNDERSTAND?" "Yes ma'am." I wanted to get some payback on that ghost, even if it meant making him mad. "That guy is one jerk." I thought in my head. At the end of the day, I rushed to Michail. "Dude, you know that thing that took me?" "Yeah, why?" "We need to get some payback. But first, we need to get Jason and Jude." "Ok, but when are we gonna have the time to plan this thing out?" "It'll take a while, but I think that as long as the teachers don't find out, we'll be fine doing it during recess for like 4 days." "Ok, but when are we gonna get the payback time? During the night at like 11:00? That would be stupid if-" "Yup, were doing it at 11:00, on next Tuesday." I said this ignoring Michail's response.
