ok there was a challenge on another forum for writing a christmas story...so i just a few moments ago jotted this down...its disturbing and not at all good......
one cold snowy december morning, a teenager awoke to a room freezing. She got up and was thankful that she had worn her fleece pajamas the night before and threw on a fleece robe for it was very cold. she could not understand why her family wasn't awake yet for it was christmas morning. she remebered that on previous christmas mornings she would wake up in a warm house smelling of turkey bacon, eggs, and pancakes. she would wake up from the shouts of her younger siblings yelling for everyone to wake up so that they can open their gifts from santa which stood. the gifts not santa, under the large christmas tree in the living room.
the teenager ran out of her room and found that the house was deathly silent. it was also very dark. she ran down the stairs to the first floor. the christmas tree wasn't lit thought the presents lay there under the tree untouched. she searched the kitchen. there was nothing on the stove there was no food out waiting for her parents to start cooking them. she ran back upstairs and was shocked at the stinking smell that engulfed her. how did she not smell this when she ran down the stairs.
she couldn't place the smell. what was it? she slowly walked to her parents' room. she nocked on the door but no on answered. slowly she turned the nob and to her surprise it was unlocked. her parents never left their room unlocked when they went to sleep. slowly she opened the door. it started to creek so much that her heart jumped in her throat and she paused. but soon she heard no sturing from inside so she opened the door all the way. the smell, no the stink, was soooooooo much worse here.
she walked down the short hall to the bedroom and what lay there in wait for her was more than she could bear. her mother and father lay in their bed as if asleep but their white sheets were soaked in blood. their throats were slit. a moan escaped the teenagers lips as she stood there a few yards away from her dead parents. her legs gave way from under her and she began to cry. suddenly she had an urge to know what had happened to her siblings. she ran out of her parents room and opened her brother's room. he was not in his bed but on the floor...dead in the same manner as her parents. she found her other two sisters in the same way and could not handle the reality of it all. she ran out of their room and stood stund at the landing. there on the cream carpet was something she had not noticed before. it was a knife and it was all bloody. she knelt down and in a daze picked it up. the only thoughts crossing her mind was that she no longer wanted to live if her family was dead.
Before she knew it there were scores of cops surrounding her. she dropped the knife when she saw a man yell something at her and make odd lowering movements with his hands. she didn't not understand what this man ment or wanted but once the knife was out of her hand this man grabbed her arms and she could just hear him say, ' You are under arrest for the murder of...' and the only thing that passed her mind before she fainted was 'This is the worst christmas present ever'.
