No Way Out
After a long while he stopped crying. He made up
his mind that he was going to escape. He was
determined he would not die in this house.
He slowly opened the door and started looking
for ways to escape, but every other door he tried
was tightly locked. He came back to the first
room he was in and tried all the windows. They
were locked too. He had no way out. He was
stuck. He decided the only way to get out was
through the front door. He hoped it wasn’t
locked too.
On his way down the steps, he stopped to shake
his friend to see if he would respond. Tears
streamed down Jay’s face when his friend
remained still. “I’m sorry there is nothing I can do
for you buddy. But I will send them back for your
body. I won’t leave you to rot in this creepy
house.” He stood up slowly and then he noticed
an axe at the bottom of the stairs. He picked it up
when he got to the bottom on the steps. “This
might just help me get out of here,” he thought to
himself.
