I Almost Died From A Tombstone

Chapter 1 - Truth or Dare?

Dedicated to Ugh_nevermind

My P.O.V. then

I rushed outside to the backyard with my siblings as my mom held tightly to her laundry basket, chuckling. My brother and sisters decided we would all play tag. We played for at least fifteen minutes as our mother hung clothes on the clothesline.

"Come on inside!" My mom said while looking at us. We all scattered away, hiding so we could play longer. Jennifer and I linked hands and sprinted to the cemetery behind our back yard, where we know our mother would never look. Just going in between one of the four wires was all it took to get there. We weaved our skinny little bodies through the middle wire and hid behind a bush. We watched Mom look for us as she went inside. Once we thought we were hidden from sight, we stopped and looked at each other as we let go of our hands.

"Truth or Dare?" Jennifer said with a smirk. I nodded eagerly. "Ok, truth or dare?" She asked. I thought for a moment.

"Dare." I say to show her I'm not scared. She looked around and saw a tall, old looking tombstone.

"I dare you to climb that tombstone." She said while pointing to it. I grinned and thought of how fun that would be.

"Okay Jennifer. I will. But I'm really hot so can you get me some water?"

"Ugh. Sure." She got up and skipped happily inside. I look at the tombstone and grinned. I'll show her. I looked around for my Mom again, better be save than sorry. I hopped onto the end of the tombstone. This will be easy peasey. I climb onto the full tombstone and sit at the top. What a sight.

I hop off and do it again. The process continued for quite a while so I could practice and show my best to my sister. I giggled as the tombstone tilted a little, it scared me for a second. I forgot all about Jennifer and continued my fun. I look at the tombstone.

I jump on the tombstone and prop myself up so only one foot and put my other straight out, along with one of my arms. It shifted again. I twirled around where it was tilting to get to the other side, but it started falling to fast for my to go back. I froze as I hit the grass.
