Phrases from the dark side

Phrases from the dark side

        Right after midnight, on October 29th, I was waiting inside my house when I herd the sound of wet 
boots / in slimy muck. I dismissed the creepy noises and went back to doing my homework. Next I heard a
soft scream in the distance. This time I went into my bedroom and got on my bed and under my covers. Then I herd small footsteps coming from the garden. I pinched myself just in-case. I started to fall asleep just when I remembered I didn't lock the doors. I locked the front door and the back door, and just before I locked the side door I looked out the window / to the garden and my jaw dropped to what seemed like the floor. The garden had something among the cabbages, something big! It looked around 600 pounds! It had big, thick vines wrapping along the fence. I was so shocked, all I could do was stare at the enormous "thing" / in my garden that seemed to be staring straight back at me. It kept making a loud sucking noise and I wondered how no one else in my family herd it. Once the shock was over I turned around and ran back to my room as quick as i could. The next morning, before school I walked into the garden that had left me thinking the night before. I walked past the apple tree, carrots and pumpkins until I reached our "cabbage patch". I looked around and saw only colorful cabbages. I looked and looked until I found something under one of the cabbages. It had creamy skin so I picked it up. It was a small little squash! I laughed at myself and carried it back inside my house.
