Snowmans

 On Christmas Eve they came…

She had first seen them through the sitting room window, as she peeked out cautiously through a gap in the curtains.

Opening the front door, the little girl took a sharp intake of breath as thousands upon thousands of snowmen stared at her. Many of the small, white figures carried signs, written in different languages.

They must have travelled from all over the world to be here, on this special night of the year. But…Why had they come? What did they want? Why had they chosen her?

She slowly shut the door as they watched every movement she made. She peeked through the peephole in the door, but where were they? They aren’t there anymore. Her brain started spinning in circles, maybe she was just daydreaming. She sighed and turned back around heading to her bedroom. “Ahhh!” The snowmen were staring right back at her. Her heart was beating as fast as the broken clock in. 

She sprints to the door and slams it behind her hoping the snowmen couldn’t catch her. She turns around looking at the door… The door stays shut. She sighs a sign of relief. She turns back around and once again the snowmen are staring right back with their beading eyes. 

She screams “ What do you want from me?!!??”  One of teh snowmen standing at the front turns it’s head and says “You don’t remember us?” Then all of a sudden memories flashback and she starts seeing pictures of her as a child building thousands of snowmans. “ We came back to visit you,” says the snowman. She answers “ I don’t want to see you again!!”. She doesn’t even hesitate to run into them whilst knockingall of them over. They’re all gone. But not for long.

Today our teacher chose a pobble for us to do. She chose a snowman one. The pobble already had a few paragraphs to start the story. Then everyone had to add their own story to finish it off. After we had finished writing the story we had to create our own snowman on our computers. I chose to make my story more of a horror story to make it more interesting. Maybe next time I could've made it BTB (Better Than Before) by adding a bit more detail to my snowman.
