I sit there silently pushed up against the wall, as the stairs to the cellar creak loudly. Somebody is coming to get me, I think to myself.
Then all of a sudden, I feel tiny legs crawling up my bare arms. I freeze up and look at what is crawling up my arm to find not just one spider but fifty white ones. If I scream the person will know that I’m down here hiding.
I hold in the scream, but carefully change the position of my body so that I am more hidden. But these spiders begin to crawl up to my face; slowly.
Hello from England, Sophia! What a fantastic 100wc – I will share it with my class next week. You used the prompt really well to create a frankly terrifying piece of writing – you are clearly a very talented author! Writing in the first person really grabs the reader’s attention and lets them share your character’s fear.
Am I right in thinking your school’s in Alaska? We’re in Shrewsbury, England and our blog address is http://www.ashclassgreenfields.blogspot.com
Keep on blogging!
Mr Kenyon (Team 100wc)
ps – my wife is going to Alaska soon to climb Mt Denali/McKinlay! Small world!
Ack! What are you going to do???
