"We should have brought pogo sticks."  Charlie said

"Shut up about pogo sticks!" Alice retorted

"Will you both shut up!" Edward said

"NO!" Alice and Charlie replied in unison.

The three of them were standing at the bottom of Everest. About to set off on a hike like no other.

Charlie was lazy but agreed to come because Edward offered him a copy of Black Ops.

Edward was one of those people who just wanted to have a long list of achievements by the time he is 30.

Alice was just there for fun. She was extremely energetic.

The hike was Edward's idea.  Alice was bounding on ahead. Charlie moaned he should still be in bed. Edward had out a map which Charlie pointed out was completely and utterly pointless because they obviously had to go straight up the mountain.

"Half way there lads!" Alice declared.

"Another way of saying still half the mountain left to climb" Muttered Charlie.

"Shut up with the negativity!" Alice snapped.

She went to push him but Edward got in the way and she pushed him by mistake, he tripped, lost balance and fell down.

"Shite!!!" He roared as he tumbled down the mountain.

They saw a red pool of blood surround him as he lay there- dead.

"Nicely done Alice" Charlie said sarcastically.

"SHUT UP!" Alice shouted.

her voice was so loud and high pitched the earth began to tremor. Snow started falling down the side of the mountain and within seconds they were completely. And died 5 seconds later.

Their bodies were never found. It was believed they had simply reached the top and met the boy who according to legend lives in a house up at the very highest peek. And they liked him SO much they decided to stay and live with him. But if this is a myth or the truth no one knows.

Maybe they should've brought pogo sticks after all..

THE END.
