One late Saturday afternoon, a storm is coming in. You could feel the cold damp feeling of the air in your hands and on your body. The room goes from bright to pitch black. The fog rolls in... And it starts to drizzle slowly, then it starts to rain, then it starts to pour, and then it starts to come down in buckets of water. As I look out the window I can’t see a thing it’s too foggy! SWOOSH, SWOOSH, SWOOSH, BANG, BANG, BANG.... “What is that sound?”said Sally. TAP, TAP, TAP....”Oh no, help me, please, I’m scared, anybody” Sally was frightened. “Hello, hello? Anybody there?”Sally tried calling her mom and dad on the phone and they didn’t answer! TAP, TAP, TAP... there it was again!! Uh-Oh! She peered out of her bedroom window to look outside. She could not see a thing except for the dark, black, stormy clouds. SWOOSH, SWOOSH, SWOOSH...not again! Thought Sally. The sound of the kicking, scratching, and crackling kept Sally on her toes. TAP, TAP, TAP... Sally was so tired she didn’t know what to do. Then all of a sudden, there was a BANG, BANG, BANG in the attic, the lights flickered, and a door slammed shut!

The lights kept flickering on, off, on, off and last time it stopped and it was pitch black. TAP, TAP, TAP... Sally was scared again. Finally, Sally decided she would go up to the attic to see where all the noise was coming from. She was really scared. She walked up the attic stairs really slowly...step by step. When she got to the top of the stairs, there was a big door. It took her awhile to bring her hand up to the door knob...shaking, trembling, her fingers could barely grab the knob. She slowly turns the knob and gently pushes the door open. It was pitch black...she couldn’t see a thing, then all of a sudden..she could see a shadow but still didn’t know what it was. Sally now thinks it’s a bear... it’s shadow was huge. All of sudden there it was again...TAP, TAP, TAP, BOOM!! Sally almost jumped out of her shoes! Then out of no where...came a fluffy, puffy, scruffy DOG!! She saw it... it was her silly neighbor’s dog named Bob that got out of it’s cage and somehow snuck into her attic!!! What a relief Sally felt, when she finally realized all the noise she was hearing all night long was Bob trying to get out of the attic!! What a crazy night!!
