The Eye Of The Crow
By James
“Wait mom we forgot Ellen!” I yelled “I bet she's fine” said mom “mom she's 5 she is not fine” “ok let's go get her” mom said not sounding happy. When we reached the house all the lights were off and the door was unlocked there was a huge claw mark on the door “mom look at this” “it was probably the neighbors dogs” mom said “yeah I guess it was” I said back ,dad opened the door “Ellen!” he called, no answer “Ellen!” he called louder still no answer “let's go inside dad” “ok”dad said. He reached for the light switch the switch was gone “what the light switch it's gone” said dad sounding creeped out “uh huh, let me try” mom said she couldn't find it either “I can use my phone flashlight” I said “great idea Sam”said dad I turned it on I could only see the front hallway but it look more empty than I remembered all of the things that were in the hallway were gone!
My mom turned on her phone light and so did my dad and we went deeper and deeper into the house there was nothing there all our furniture was gone and so was Ellen. We came into Ellen’s room and there she was laying on her bed under the covers I wondered why her bed was still there. Mom ran to her “Ellen are you ok?” Ellen didn't answer “she looks different” said mom sounding worried “ let me see”. I ran to her and she was so pale I touched her arm, just then a giant bird came out from the darkness and grabbed Ellen in it’s beak it destructively crashed through the wall and flew away I was knocked back by it’s wing as it left.
The next day I woke up in my Aunt Mary’s house my mom was sitting on the bed next to me “where’s dad”? I asked “he got hurt and he is in the hospital” she said sounding sad “can we go see him” I asked also sounding sad “sure, but if he is sleeping don't wake him up” she said. When we pulled up to the hospital the police were there and there was a big hole in the wall “what happened”? I asked sounding alarmed “I don’t know” said mom. We cautiously walked up to the hospital “STOP RIGHT THERE!” the policeman yelled “we are here to see my dad” I said “THE HOSPITAL IS CLOSED FOR INVESTIGATION!” he yelled again and blocked the hospital off with caution tape. “ok let’s go” said mom sounding mad we left and eventually rumbled up my Aunt’s driveway “how's it going” my Aunt said “ok I guess” I said sadly “come on in” she said “ok”.
I heard a strange noise coming from the roof I turned around it was the bird that took Ellen! It swooped down and it was coming right at me I felt a tight squeeze around my stomach “Sam no!” yelled my mom, the next thing I knew I was off the ground.
I woke to darkness I could see nothing I waited for my eyes to adjust to the dark I could still feel a squeeze around my chest I looked down and it wasn’t the bird. It looked like a root of a tree! I was captured
The tree root was still tight around me and I could hear something. It was coming from the other side of the room. Just then something emerged from the darkness. It looked somewhat like a bird, it had glowing red eyes and it was black. I could hear it’s claws scratching the solid stone ground as it approached me. It’s beack was now right next to me and it’s glowing red eyes looking me straight in the face. I could almost feel it’s red eyes staring down into my soul, and it’s sharp beack ready to chomp off my head any second.
The giant bird lifted its claws and used it’s sharp nails to cut the roots I was stuck in. I fell to the floor and started to run, but it was no use the bird reached out it’s giant arm and grabbed for me. The bird had me tightly clenched in it’s claws, I struggled, but it was no use, the bird just squaked at me and then started walking.
The bird carried me into a large room with four cages, I looked at the first one and I saw my dad lock inside it. Then I looked at the second one and I saw my sister Ellen, The bird got closer to the third one and then slowly put me inside. The bird closed the door and locked it by bending the piece of metal that was sticking out of the door. The bird started to walk away and I yelled at it “Hey you get back here and release me bird!” I yelled.
That night as I sat in the cage I started to see thing appear, there was pairs of red glowing just like the birds all over the walls I walked up to one of them and tried to punch it but I hit nothing “I guess this is all just an illusion” I though. I tried to ram into one of the eyes but instead I went right through the wall and I was outside of the cage. I felt something in my hand so I opened it, there was one of the glowing red eyes that had just been on the cell walls. I tapped the eye and then it started to glow and it also lit somewhat of a laser leading somewhere, I decided to follow it.
