My Name: Andrew shostle My Age: 13 My Hometown: My Hobbies: watching TV or movies My Favorites: Other things you should know about me:

 It was the first day of school when I opened the door to the large building and saw everyone I knew and some new students too. The school was still the same as last year with it's brown lockers. The walls were all painted in blue as usual and little bits of paint chipped off the walls making those places seem white. I walked to the cafeteria and sat down to have my breakfast. When I was done eating I looked behind me and noticed to my discomfort that no one was in the cafeteria. So I walked out in the halls and looked around. I even looked in the class rooms to see if anyone was there but there wasn't a single soul. So I walked out of the school and looked around, still no one was there but I kept looking anyway. When I finally found at least one person it was at a dark road that said dead end. I walked up to the person and said “do you know where everyone is?” The person look at me and just disappeared into a big pile of smoke.

After that I woke up by the sound of my alarm clock and my TV was on so that also woke me up. When I got out of bed, I noticed that no one was there in my house. I found it a nightmare for me to be alone. When I looked around my house I noticed that there was a note on my refrigerator and it said “I went out last night to hang out with friends be back tomorrow.” It was a note from my sister who I live with. Why I live with my sister you might ask? Well because when I was six my parents died. My sister and I only had each other and we lived with my grandma and grandpa until my sister turned twenty. As soon as she turned twenty, her and I have lived together ever since. I am now sixteen and my sister is twenty five. My name is Mike and my sister's name is Rose. So I go to a school that is right near my house so in the mornings. My sister has a job, she works at a nursing home and she likes it there because she likes to help people, especially old people.

At school that day someone new was in the class she asked me if she could sit next to me I mind. So she sat down next to me and asked “What are we doing.” I just kept thinking about what it would be like if I was alone then after awhile, I answered her “We are”. I had no clue what we doing because she kept talking to me about what we need and what we are doing. She said “you have no clue do you?” I shook my head. When school was over I walked home with some of my friends, they are Max, and Jack. Jack said to me “ Hey did you see the new girl?” “Yeah” I said “She sits next to me why?” Our school was different from other schools instead of changing class we just stayed in the same class but the teachers came to us each hour.

When I got home Jack said “We’ll see you tomorrow okay?” “Okay” I said as I walked in the house. When I walked in my sister was reading the newspaper and said “Did you know that someone went missing today?” “No” I said “Well I am going to my room, I have a lot of homework to do.” She didn’t say anything, so I walked to my room and fell asleep on my bed. In the morning I woke up but this time my sister woke me up and said “Wake up you fell asleep, then we had a power serge so your alarm clock needs to be reset.” Then she left to go to work. I was still getting up, not even thinking about what would happen to me if I didn’t have my home work. So I decided to skip school today and sleep a little bit more. As I was sleeping I had that same nightmare again but everyone vanished in front of me. My two friends came over and said “Why didn’t you come to school today you missed a big test today and the teacher said if you are later or absent then you will just take a F on it.” I said “Oah that’s okay I will do a lot of extra credit to make it up.” “Whatever you say then but do you know how much extra credit you will have to do?” Max asked “Well yeah but I will still do it.” Ten minutes later we at a 7 11 getting something to eat when Max said “Did you know that the new girl, Mary, she was asking for you all day today and I think she likes you or she copies off you.” If she did like me I wouldn’t mind because I kind of liked her too. “So did you ask her why she was asking for me?” “No.” He said back to me. The next day at school I saw her and asked her “So why where you asking for me yesterday?” “Oah, no reason I just wanted to know what our homework was.” She said after that the teacher came in so we couldn’t talk anymore. When school was over Max said “Hey bud, are you coming tonight to my house there is going to be a big party.” “I didn’t know that but yeah I will come to your house.” I said with surprise I really didn’t know that there was a party because he always tells Jack and me first.

So that night I walked over to his house and you think that it would be empty because he never really told anyone good directions to his house. As I walked in there was everything that you thought of it was weird because everyone from school was there. In the house I looked around for Max or Jack but I couldn’t find them so I went upstairs to look for them. When I finally found them I said “Hey so I came.” They didn’t say anything they just stared at me. I went around the whole house asking people “Why are you looking at me?” but then I saw the man from my dream and I asked him “What is going on?” he said “Your nightmare.” and then one by one everybody started to disappear it was just like my dream. As everyone was disappearing I saw the girl that sat next to me as I reached to touch to see if she was real but she also turned into dust. Then when everyone was dust the door was locked so I couldn’t get out. I sat there in the middle of the floor of the house all by myself I, sat there in my worst dream no, nightmare. I will never know what’s real any more so I am left in a house with no one at all just me.
