Fourth Period Choclate: A Short Story
Fourth Period Choclate I sneak through the forest watching as the children creep by, I wait for the moment to spring the trap. I hear them whispering to each other as they travel through the dark woods. The dark woods have been my home since the beginning of time, the trees are gnarled, the bark darker than night. As I stalk the children the moss clings to me whispering for me to join it."Soon others will be joining you" I whisper to it. The children have now gotten to the point of enactment it's now or never. As I come out of the trees the children gasp and then look nervously around to see if there is a chance escape. As I walk toward them they I start to hear what they are saying. I hear my name whispered in panicked voices as they …show more content…
Nyssa was a human that lived in the evergreen woods and had an adeptness of magic that was only rivaled by my own. Though unknown by anyone she had a dark mission to do, which she completed. Nysaa's job was to destroy all the elves except for one, me. She did something much worse than that, she made me destroy them. Nysaa had been working with sorcerers for years to develop a potion that makes people not see what’s actually there but what you want them to see. When she came, she administered this to everyone in the Elven woods and got everyone to trust her, including myself. One day she called me over and administered the potion into my drink, much more than had ever been tested. I could feel it burning through my veins and then it turned to ice. Nyssa grabbed me and whispered three words that have haunted me …show more content…
I know that because of how much of the potion she gave me that I ended up combining it with the makeup of my body so that I could survive. I also know that that the potion has a safeguard that makes it so that if the potion doesn't recognize her than the person can't control me, but I never quite understood how it worked, but the moss had said it had something to do with the makeup of her magic. And it seemed as if this girl, Hannah had the same magical makeup as Nyssa which made me worried that I would be suggestible to whatever she said, although I was pretty sure that with it in my system for so long that I had developed some immunity to it. I decided that I would cast a spell so that she couldn't talk until I decided what to do with her. I quickly cast the spell and then ask the other two children why they were in the woods. Hannah shakes her head vehemently and the two children glance at me with wide eyes but don't say a word. I decide that I must be more persuasive. Seeing how they looked at Hannah for direction I figured that she was the the leader of this ragtag group of miscreants. I form a bottomless pit below hannah and watch the children's reaction as I position them so that they can see into the hole then I drop her suddenly and let her plummet until I slowly bring her to a halt . The child who looks the youngest starts struggling against the bonds, screaming, then she wilts and whispers something almost

    A breeze fluttered through the cool and crisp night as my sisters group of friends were about to play manhunt, a favorite game of theirs. They had heard stories of how the trees would move in the night, but of course, it seemed so unrealistic, who would believe that? They had been busy with their activities for the past few days and were anxious to join their friends again, much too excited to believe some tall tale. This night Charlene, Andie, Everly, Rebel, and Lauren were going to meet at the Simpsonwood trails at 10:00pm. Their ages hovered around age 13.…

    As a child, I was raised my whole life in the country side. My mother and I had lived for years in a lonely shack at the edge of the small village we called home. At the very edge of the village was an eerie forest, a forest that seemed to beckon unwary fools into entering it. I was always told as a child to never go near the forest, especially at night. Some people say that a bear lives there, while others say that a serial killer lives there, and some even say that a monster lives there, either way the forest is always portrayed with death. I remember various occasions in which I would wake up for reasons unknown, only to find myself outside in my backyard staring at the edge of the forest, the soft moonlight caressing my bare skin, the crisp night air followed by the refreshing scent of grass. On one occasion I thought I heard a…

    This story starts in a murky alleyway focused on a hidden bundle. A boy just out of infancy, buried in rags, breathing in the thick mist alone. No soul around to feed or care for him. An adult's mind he must obtain. Though short his thread to life is as lung-deep coughs emerge. Slipping into slumber, ghost smoke fills his mind. Fear-filled screams draw our story to this past. We watch as he crawls trading this horror for another. He enters a world of lost love. Gentle hands a fading memory as bruises take their place. His mind, drenched in the scent of alcohol, standing strong. Only an infant he learned to hide. Silent and scared, listening to the thunder on the stairs. No time to play, he'd clean the house. Only a house - not a home. The ache of hunger became his teacher, moulding his movements; mouse-like movements they became. Skills of protection soon followed, encouraged by the pain of others discovery. These skills enabling his escape. An escape we now follow back to the time our story is set. Where it is…

    "Lyla!" I hear my mother shout as I run down the halls. I hurry down the halls and outside to my secret garden. I reach the secret door behind the tall mirror and I look around. No one is looking so I quietly pull on the mirror and open the door behind it. I slip through and shut the mirror and door behind me. I take my uncomfortable shoes off and let my toes dig into the cool grass. I walk back to the bench swing between the trees and sit down. I listen to the small stream flow by and sway on the bench. I grab my notepad and colored pencils from the hidden compartment in one of the trees and sit in the grass. I flip past my many drawings to a blank page. I look for something I haven't drawn in my garden yet and that's when I notice something. I set my notepad down and walk over to the strange object. I pick it up and it's a letter in a bottle, I pry off the cork and dump out the letter. I unroll the letter and look at it.…

The princess was so kind to them that the guards had huge smiles on their faces when they shut the bedroom door..

    The crisp winter air blew my hair this way and that, creating knots that would take strenuous effort to undue. However, this did not bother me in the least. The breeze filled my lungs with air and my heart with a yearning for adventure. Maybe it was the breeze or the moon that led me into the woods, or maybe it was fate itself. Putting on my leather boots, I trudged into the dark trees, asking for trouble. But that was how I was a few months ago, troublesome and curious, always waiting for the next big thing to happen. I used to live in anticipation, now I live in remorse and regret. The snow crunched under my boots, and an owl hooted from a nearby branch. As my green eyes adjusted to the darkness, a shadow appeared in the distance. Careful not to make a noise, I slowly inched my way closer to the hooded figure. A single thought surged…
