Berry Shulter (#Wattys2017)

Spooky Grave Yard

"It's Christmas eve, Berry!"
"Yeah Lorein, would you go with me to the grave yard?"
"Of course, I mean yes Berry"

We went into the flying wagon and reached the grave yard, and there it all happened at once.

I felt fresh air through my nose as I walked through the dark grave yard holding my wand ready for anything that might happen. Suddenly, I saw the teddy bear that mom gave me on a grave. I ran toward it, wiped the snow that covered the tombstone. I felt my heart beats fasten as I read the name, JACK & ROSE SHULTER murdered in year 1991.

"Hey, did you find it Berry?"
"Yes, yes I did.. I was thinking of something else Lorein!"
"And W- What's that?"

"Berry, it's too dangerous!"
"I have to!"

"Hey Tom, we have to go, come on Berry is waiting."
No answer.
"Tom, come on, move!"
Still nothing..

"What?"
"My dad was a great wizard..but.."
Silence came...
"Hey guys! Come on!" I yelled, and my voice echoed all around the place.

"Coming!"
"Where are we going Lorein?" Tom asked, wiping the tears with his sleeve.
"To Berry's past home.."
"WHAT?! Are you two insane? It's too dangerous!"
"I know! But it is necessary, and if you're scared, you can go back to the school." I answered.
"No, I'm not scared, but I mean, it's just.. Just nothing..."
"Are you ready?"
"Yeah, let's go on.."

As we approached an old cabin, a woman seemed mad approached....
