Josh looked over the dim, deserted classrom, the windows broken, the desks and chairs broken and witten on. The blackboard up front at the point of falling off, the lights filled with dust, the walls seemed to sing their very sad song. He didn't even know, how he had gotten there in the first place, he was just, there.
Looking into a corner, something stirred in the darkness of it. His eyes opened in horror as a creature of the dark proceeded from the dark corner. Its face not visible, it didn't even have a face at all, so he thought, its black cloak over its hands, gliding over the ground feetless, it proceeded towards him.
Sweat trickled down his shaking forehead, the creature, a wraith, still came towards him. holding out it's sleeve, a skeletal hand came out of the dark cloak. Josh, looking for an exit, turned tail and ran, but there was no exit, even the windows seemed to push him away from them.
Finding himself in another dark, ed corner, he turned around, looking in horror, he saw the wraith standing there, holding out his hand. It glided towards Josh, not being able to move he was so scared, the wraith enclosed his hand on Josh's throat, picked him up and pulled down his hood to reveal a huge hole, a dark, menacing hole.
The wraith lowered Josh towards the hole, Josh kicked and cried for help, but noone came, it was is if the walls were laughing at him. His feet were beginning to reach the wraith's hole like mouth, he took one last cry for help, he was lowered into the wraith's mouth, the sound of grinding could be heard inside, he screamed a last scream and it was all over.
Josh shot up from his pillow, sweat rolling down his forehead and looked over at his clock, 3:46 AM.
"Ugh, what a nightmare." He said dropping back to his pillow, "Ew..." he said, feeling the drenched pillow, he pulled the covers over him and said a prayer of protection from these nightmares and went back to sleep.
"Josh, Josh get up!" His mother said pounding on his door, "Your going to be late for school, boy!"
Josh opened his eyes, seeing his messy room. Toys scattered over the floor, game cases, his xbox stood on his tv, waiting to be played, clothes filled the room with an unpleasant smell of body odor. He rolled out of bed and landed on the floor with a thud.
"Ow!" He looked down under his side to see an xbox controller, clutching his side, he got out of his polka dotted pajamas and put on some clean clothes out of his drawer, grabbed two different socks and raced down the stairs. He threw the socks onto the brown leather couch and raced down the hall and into the kitchen, on the table, he saw some oatmeal and orange juice, he guzzled them both down and ran back to the couch. He saw his mom standing there, with his back pack and lunchbox at ready.
"Mom, I'm not a little kid anymore, you don't have to get my stuff anymore, I can do it on my own."
"Well, I just thought I would be nice and get some of your stuff ready for you, since your going to be late and all."
"It's thirty minutes 'till school starts and it takes five minutes to get there, and your saying I'm going to be late?" He sat down on the couch and casually started to put on his mixmatched socks.
Looking at him his mom set his stuff by the door and went out to the parked car outside, "I'll bewaiting in the car Josh, don't keep me waiting."
Pulling on his new DC shoes, he looked outside, lost his balence and fell over.
Outside, he squeezed himself into the small vehicle, backpack on his back, reay to go.
"Well I won't be at home when you get there, so I want to lay some things down; no inapropriat websites, the TV is off limites untill someone gets home, lock the door and don't let anybody in, Josh looked out the window at the beautiful neighborhood. The houses alined neatly, evenly spaced and looked like bige cubes in the bright sun. He looked out with a bored expression while his mom blabbed on, "There is some turkey in the fridge, you got all that?"
"Yes mom, lets just go." and they drove off.
He tapped his pecile on the desk of his first and his least favorite class, math. He was so bored and off into space that he didn't even hear his teacher coming toward him. She slapped down a ruler onto his desk that made him jump. He looked up at his pointy nose teacher, "Josh, i suppose that you can tell me the answer to the problem on the board, go up there and write it out and tell the class how you got the answer." She said pointing to to board up fromt of the class.
he proceeded up to the board, hearing chatter and giggles from his classmates, "Tell us the answer to the problem three x squred to the fifth power times eight to the ngative sixth power."
He picked up a marker and brung it up to the board, but one thing happened then, his arm wen through the board. He looked at it in shock and yanked it back out unharmed, noone seemed to notice, "I'm waiting, Josh."
Sweat ran down his face and the teacher yealled at him, "Detention! For not paying attention and failing to answer the question on the board." His face turned red as some of his classmates laughed at him, "Do you all want detention too?" And in an instant, the room fell quiet. The bell rang after that happened.
Walking through the hall to his next class, his friend Ramond walked up to him, weaving through the sea of students.
"Hey, Josh! Wait up!" Ramond yelled at Josh, catching up to him.
"Hey Ray."
"Hey, why the long face Josh?" He asked, looking at Josh.
"I got detention."
"Psh, detention? It ain't so bad, I'v been in there a whole bunch, all you get to do is sit there and be quiet for thirty minutes."
"Oh really, well, what about you?"
"Well nothing much, yesterday my aunt came over and-"
Josh, looking up, he saw someone coming towards him, the person, he didn't even know, went right through him, yet, once again, noone noticed.
"And thats about it." Ramond finished turning to josh and slapped him on the back, "Hey, earth to Josh, whats wrong?"
"Hey," Josh asked, "did you just see that?"
Ramond looked over to him, a confused look on his face, "See what?"
"A, person, just went right through me..." Josh answered, looking over at him and wondering why he didn't see it. Ramond laughed at him and asked,
"Why would a person go right through you?" He asked, laughing some more.
"Quit laughing! Well, heres my next class." He said turning to the door on the right of them. "See you later."
"Later Josh." and he kept on walking.
Reaching towards the doornob, about an inch from it, he fell through the floor, falling through the darkness of it all. Landed in an old chair, his butt hurting, he looked up to see a man standing in front of him.
"Josh, I've been waiting for you..."
