The Demented Childhood of Lucas M

Trick or Trick (Start of a chain of events)

It was Halloween, I was 10 at the time, and I was laughing at some stupid joke or remark my friend made. "I heard there's a new kid in town." , Andy stated. "Yeah he lives in that house down there." I pointed. It was a red brick black roofed house with hedges surrounding the border of the property. We stopped at a couple more houses before arriving at the new kids house. Oddly enough, there were no decorations. (I didn't consider they were still unpacking, give me a break) I decided that it didn't matter and lead my party of 4 to the door. We knocked, but no one answered. We decided we would skip the house when the door creaked open. We couldn't see the person who opened it, since he hid behind the door, but seconds later, a kid with a bloody hockey mask starts running and yelling at us with a MACHETE!!! YES! A FREAKING MACHETE!! I screamed like a little girl, and ran into the houses slanted driveway with my buddies. We breathed soft and steady, slowing our heart beat, when a soft puff of air was heard. My breath hitched as not a second later a soft"ping" rang on the garage door. We all ran for it. My three friends made it, but me, being the one with the bad karma, was hit in the knee. I fell to the ground, spilling some of my candy. I caught up with my friends, after crouching and collecting my candy, hoping that would never occur again.
