\tab\fs24 "Let's go into that scary old house tonight." said Stanley eagerly to Jenny who was standing beside him shivering scaredly toward the creeky house. \par

\pard\tx10350 "There's no way I'm going in that...that thing! It seems scared, like it's scared of us, right Tammy?" said Jenny turning to her left seeking for her one and only best friend. "Where is she!" Jenny screamed, running in all around the scary house's yellow grassed yard. Jenny ran with the  hand of Stanley in hers. They looked together not noticing that they were on the first cracke step of the house. Stanley tapped Jenny's shoulder with his free hand. She looked up and screamed! Stanley looked to where her eyes were staring. There was Tammy. She was pail. She looked cold, like she was stuck in a freezer the past hour. Suddenly, she fell onto her left side shivering in a ball.  Jenny ran to her side letting go of Stanley's hand. Stanley was in shock, he didn't move. He was thinking about how they didn't notice Tammy was gone. \par

"Where had she gone?" Stanley asked himself over and over again. He stopped his thoughts when Jenny screamed,\par

\pard\ri-1800\tx10350 "She needs a doctor! She won't talk, nor will she look at me!" without a word Stanley was there picking up Tammy draping his jacket over her. He ran to his Jeep, throwing Tammy in the back leaving the buckling to Jenny. Jenny hopped in the back hugging Tammy, keeping her warm. Jenny was crying. She couldn't believe what she was expiriencing. She wished it were her cold and scared. She wished she had been the one not able to move. She hated herself for not seeing Tammy leave. Then she wondered if she had been taken, poisend, knocked out? Jenny pounded on the empty seat next to her and screamed in agony. Stanley turned pulling over the car. He ran to her side of the car and stopped her pounding, but not the screaming. Tammy had bitten her. Then Tammy turned into an ugly creature. Stanley pulled Jenny out and ran to the next available house. They just bursted open the door and asked for anyone to call "911"--the police. No one was home. Jenny, still in pain, ran to the kitchen sink dripping a trail of blood as she passed. She rinsed her bite, rubbing it hardly. Oooze started coming out of the bite until it was all clear. Jenny was astonished, but she wasn't scared. She knew she wasn't going to turn into that creature that had taken over her best friends body, everything was out. Jenny was deturmined to go into that house and destroy what had gotten to Tammy. She was going and she wasn't taking anyone with her. \par

\tab Jenny went and found a bandage in a bathroom cabinet. She stuck it on and marched out the door with a tennis racket in her hand  in case Tammy found her. Jenny would just knock her out for a little. Anyways, Stanley grabbed Jenny's arm and pulled her back. "Where do you think your going?" \par

"To find the creep that hurt Tammy in that old house!" Jenny chocked out in tears finally falling to the ground sobbing. Stanley went to her side saying that he would help. They got up off the cold ground from the night and ran to the house, afraid to use the bloody car. They both stopped in panick, clinging to eachother imediatly. Tammy popped out of the bushes! Her face was lit with laughter and she wasn't pail anymore. Stanley and Jenny hugged Tammy as they found out Tammy was pulling a prank. They didn't hate her they were just happy she was okay. They went home happily, especialy Stanley and Jenny...\par
