We got to the bridge. It was mad creepy. Mad fog everywhere, the pain on the structure was pealing off and it made noises every time i walked on the floor.

"Woah." Ty said in awe. "I know right." Jay replied. "Scared now Ash?" Jason taunted. "Never in my life. " I said confidently. "Yeah right" Ty started. "By the time we walk 5 steps on this bridge you be running home to yo sis crying! Speaking of yo sis, when can i get ha number?" "First of all, I told you this bridge aint haunted! And second, she 19 she too old fa you" I told him. "Bro I'm 14 only 5 year difference!" Ty argued. "Yeah but you act like you are 5 bro." "Whatever man." Ty said sucking his teeth.

"Ash! Come look at this!" Jay yelled. This guy was in the middle of the bridge i could barely see him.

"BRO YOU CRAZY?! I AINT GOING ALL THE WAY UP THERE!" I yelled back. "WHY YOU SCARED?" Jay yelled laughing. "I AINT SCARED!" I yelled back running to where he was.

It was a notice that said: THIS STRUCTURE HAS BEEN CLOSED DOWN BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT FOR SAFETY ISSUES.

Aii, now I'm scared. Not because of no "ghosts" Jay and Ty be babbling about. Because this bridge can fall any moment and we all be dead and no one can find us. But i shook the thought of my mind but i still think we should be getting out of here.

"You think we should still be here? I mean this bridge can collapse any second you know and no one can find us." I said nervously. "Man Jay I told you Ash punk!" Ty said Jay laughing. That just got me mad.

"Boy I ain't punk! This bridge ain't safe and you know that!" I yelled at Ty. "Man whatever." Ty said rolling his eyes.

I was walking back to the bikes with Jay and Ty. That's when the floor cracked and Jay's snap-back fell through. Man he was shook it had me dying he screamed like a chick. "Boy you aii?" I said laughing. "That ain't funny!" Jay said mad and brushing his shirt off. "My bad bro. You know im just messing wit ya." I said to Jay. That's when we found some old newspaper article on the floor.

"Yo! Look at this." I said to Jay and Ty. "Woah." Ty said. The newspaper article was talking about the bridge we was on. Its called East Riverhead Bridge and there was a major accident on it a few years back. It said that a string popped on the bridge and it slanted and all the cars stopped and one rammed right into another and then cars fell back and cars was flying leaving no survivor. The people weren't able to be retrieved.

"That's scary, bro." Jay said. "I know" I replied. "Well now we know what happened here! I'm tired and hungry lets head home its a long ride." " Facts." I said.

**30 minutes later**

"Later bros" I said dapping up Jay and Ty. They rode off. I put my bike in the garage and went inside the house. It smelt mad good.

"Waddup, Dad." I said to my dad. "How was the bridge trip?" he replied. "It was good, mad creepy but I ain't believe in no ghost crap." I said. Dad laughed. "Why it smell so good?" I asked. "Oh Shannyn cooked Mac n Cheese and ribs." Dad replied. "Yum." I said and helped myself to the pot of food.

Man that food was good. "Dad, I almost forgot I found this article on the bridge." I said giving him the newpaper I found on the bridge. "Cool!" He replied. I went upstairs.

Trent (Ashton's Dad) P.O.V

"Dad, I almost forgot I found this article on the bridge." Ashton said to me while handing me this paper. "Cool!" I replied. He went upstairs. I saw the name pop out at me. EAST RIVERHEAD BRIDGE. That bridge man I swear it sounds familiar.

I got undressed and lay down on my bed.

"Trent, I'm on my way home now! Make sure Ash is fed and sleep okay?" Tisha said. "Okay Honey! See you in a few!" I said. "I love- AHHHHH!!" Tisha yelled. "Honey?!" I said *A lot of noise and screaming* "TRENT TRENT!" *Line cuts*  I snap out of the flashback of when my wife died. I think about that every night. It haunts me. I loved her and i can never love again.

I hear loud music in the house. It was Ashton blasting his Drake Music.

Ashton P.O.V

"10 Bands! 50 Bands! 100 Bands!" I sang along to the song. I was bumping Drake while playing 2k when my dad banged on the door.

"TURN THAT CRAP DOWN ASHTON!" My dad yelled. I turned it down. I played 2k until i went to bed that night.

Jay: We going back to the bridge today?

Ash: Fasho!!
