Danny wanted to go outside . His mother told him to stay close to the house, so he proceeded to skip outside on a rather cloudy, grey kind of day.
The wind blew furiously and the chimes on the porch made sound as he ran downhill into the backyard.
He picked up some rocks and started throwing them at a tree. He was bored afterwards, so he found some sticks and attempted to make a small teepee, but the sticks tumbled to the ground.
Frustrated, Danny began to throw rocks again, when he saw small movement from the corner if his eyes. He quickly glanced behind the tree to see what was there.
It was a tall, all black shadow. It stood there in the woods, looking at Danny with red eyes.
Danny stared at it, unsure of what he could do. He then got an idea and picked up a rock.
He pulled his arm back, ready to launch the rock forwards. The shadow started walking towards him.
Before Danny could make the final throw, he heard his mothers voice from the balcony. "Danny? Why are you about to throw a rock into the woods? "
He turned around to see his mother, laughing at him.
"I wanted to see what the shadow would do. " He turned around to point and show to her where it was standing, but it wasn't there.
The mother laughed at him. "You mean your own shadow? I don't see anything. He placed the rock down and looked into the woods. "Maybe he'll come back. "
