Scary Stories - Part 1

So, I published this story as an actual book, but I thought I mine as well also put it in this book to!

It was dark and cold night, the wind swept through the trees as the heroes huddled together, losing the fight of keeping warm. It had only been two months since they had first met each other, and already they had put together a sort of system that kept them from killing each other. The night was like any other, they had settled down to start a camp fire and eat dinner, Wild had made stew, and Warriors and Legend had been bickering all night. It was Wind that first brought up the idea of telling stories.

"You know, whenever we were huddled around a fire, Tetra and I would tell scary stories" he stated, looking around. The others seemed to catch what he was saying. "Well, why don't we?" asked Wild, looking around. "Who wants to go first?" Everyone looked at Time, who slowly shook his head. "I'll go later, there's really so many to choose from..." he looked over at Wind. "You brought it up, why don't you go first?" Wind's face broke into a grin. "Nope, mines to scary, Twilight? You've seen some scary things... Right?" The second oldest hero grinned, showing his extra sharp teeth, and nodded. "Alright, Alright, but if none of you get any sleep tonight... don't say I didn't warn you"

He took a deep breath, and began.

"Before I came to Ordon, I lived in a small military town at the edge of the Gerudo Desert. I don't like to talk about it and the details... even the name, have become unknown to me. But there is one night that I remember crystal clear. The boys in the town trained with swords, and slept in barrack like places. Needless to say, the desert night was cold, and the room had little protection, so we would often curl up together to keep warm. It was night like that, and I couldn't sleep. There were a mass of others piled on top of me, and someones elbow was digging into my ribs. So I pushed some of them off, and opened my eyes to look around. There were a few windows in the room, and one of them was opened. The curtains swayed back and forth with the wind. I was tired, and being younger than Wind, I was scared that something was there.... Unfortunately, my suspicions were correct"

Wind interrupted him. "What did you see?" Twilight shot him a look, but continued. I saw two, beady eyes staring out at me. At first, I thought I was seeing things. But then, I looked closer, someone... no... something was coming through the window. It came into view in the moon light, and I screamed. It's face was like white leather, its eyes black as coal, with no lips. There was a smile cut into its face, and a knife in its hand. My screams woke the others, who jumped to their feet, and screamed as well. The thing looked around, and lunged for my best friend, John, tackling him to the ground with unimaginable strength..."

He took a deep breath, willing a tear not to fall. "I knew who it was. The one that all the adults said would come and get us if we were bad.... He was Jeff the Killer. And he took no mercy as he stabbed my friend to death, making it as painful as possible. Blood splattered on us all, but we were to afraid to move. Jeff covered John's mouth and said 'Shh, go to sleep' John looked up at him one last time, and then died. Jeff looked at us all, and in a moment of pure stupidity, two of us, me and my friend Carl, tackled him. He threw us both off, and I hit a wall, shattering my shoulder in the impact. He started stab Carl as we all watched, helpless. Carl begged and begged for mercy, but all he said was 'I killed my parents. I killed my brother... my best friend... why would I kill you?'"

Twilight stopped, leaving the others stunned, and a few, shaking with fear. "What happened?" asked Wind, looking scared and interested at the same time. "When the adults finally came, Jeff had killed half of us. I was lucky, most of my friends died either then or within a few days" he rubbed his shoulder. "He ran out the window, and I never saw him again" Warriors raised an eyebrow. "Impossible" he spat out. Twilight glared at him. "And why's that?"

"Because I had a run in with his brother, Homicidal Liu...."
