Running Water Creative Writing
Meanwhile, Russ, Ron, Amy, and I was standing in the jungle of our lawn. All of a sudden, I start hearing what sounds like running water.
“Ummm, Amy? Did you hear that?” I questioned my older sister. Amy looked at me and nodded, apprehension spread across her face as she looked at our surroundings. I staggered over to Amy and gripped her arm.
“It’ll be alright, Nick,” Amy told me uneasily. I could tell she was trying to be confident, but it wasn’t working.
“Guys…. I think we should get moving,” said Ron awkwardly.
All of us agreed and decided to start maneuver our way to the house. As we were walking, I heard the sound of the running water again. All of us stopped. We all stared at each other, frightened about what that sound could be.

“Keep up Nick!” Amy bellowed before she skidded to a stop.
I stopped next to her, and we stared down at a muddy, slimy lake that we almost fell into. Another missile of transparent fluid struck behind us. This time, Amy fell into the gooey, muddy lake. I kneeled down at the edge.
“Amy!” I screeched. “Amy!”

“Amy fell in there!” I said hastily. “We have to rescue her!”
Russ glanced at Ron, and jumped into the lake. Russ breathed a deep breath, and went under. We didn’t see him come up for a moment. Me and Ron didn’t see anything.
“C’mon Russ,” said Ron. “Give us a sign.”
Russ rose back up without Amy, and inhaled air. He took another deep breath and went back down. Ron and I watched the lake for any shifts in the mud. Then, Russ came back up and gasped for air. He had Amy in his arms.
“Amy!” I shrieked.
“Russ!” Ron
