Lea the scary One

One stormy day when I was a teenager I was alone. My mum and dad were dead.
I live in a shed next to a grave yard. I only just moved in it is my first day of high school. I am 567 years old . I walked to a bus stop there were spider webs all over the bus stop I loved it here. I waited impatiently.
Until the bus came it was leaking oil at the back of the bus.
The bus was really slow it was a double decker bus.
It was rusty and old. The bus driver was old and wrinkely and really fat
The bus stopped I waited for 10 seconds. It started Raining I ran to the bus and slipped on the step, every body laughed. I started limping through the hallway of the bus every body stared at me like they haven’t seen a person like this before. I saw a seat that had nobody there, I sat in it. I looked outside it was misty. It was still raining it rained all sorts of things. It was wierd. This town is scary I said to myself. Everybody was weird on the bus even out side I started to get bored except I saw this school which looked really cool it had spiders worms and fly’s but the bus went past that school, people were whispering about me. I know because they were saying my name out loud I don’t know why. Then the bus stopped, the school looked beautiful it was like the other one. I ran out side and pushed every body out of the way I put my hand on the door I held it firmly and turned it slowly, I was sweating I opened the door and……
It was ugly they had nice paintings but they looked ugly to me with pink walls ,I hate pink, I like black and brown I felt dizzy and I fainted. I heard people saying wait up. I ran away, it was one of those weird people I ran and something woke me. I said it was just a dream then I ran out of the school and onto the road and to my shed and started packing. I was scared I packed all of my spiders and clothes and headed of to the airport and paid my money. I hopped onto a plane and flew all over the world to Italy to live with my grandma and I ran onto the streets, I got lost. Then I remembered that her house is at Rome, that is a city and I flew to Rome and I ran out of the airport and onto the streets and I saw her riding in her wheel chair. I said hello she was surprised to see me I said. I wanted to live with her she said yes so we lived happily ever after the end.
