People were running all over the place in different directions, everyone in panic. There was screaming, trying to get a hold on 911. The beach was just so chaotic. Once the ambulances showed up the panic seemed to calm down a little bit. I could hear sirens stretching from one side of the street to the other. Towels and chairs were being thrown or kicked, umbrellas being shoved around, people tripping and falling over objects and each other. I would’ve panicked myself, but the reason everyone was freaking out just seemed to be unhelpful and over exaggerated. The wound wasn’t even that bad, sure they needed help, but still not an excuse for the whole beach to be in complete chaos. The shark was long gone by the time emergency was at the beach. People can be so melodramatic.
 

Summer was finally here and they were all ready to go but there seemed to be a small problem and we couldn’t quite figure it out. We had waited all year for this two week trip where we were going all pile in our minivan and head cross country. But we couldn’t yet there was one thing that just didn’t seem right.

We had done a head count about three times and it wasn’t like there was a herd of us. There were only six of us not including the dog. Ok well maybe that is a herd compared to most other families and this trip was going to be annoying anyway. There is going to be me my two younger sister and my older brother who wasn’t to happy that we were taking two weeks away from his summer. Then there are my parents who can’t ride in the same car with other without complaining about the others driving habits.  Oh and don’t get me started on the dog all he is going to do is sit in the car and stink it up the ENTIRE time.

Today was supposed the be the day we went to the waterpark, we had everything packed but there was one tiny problem. Someone stole the car’s tires. We’re not sure how it happened but it did… somehow. It just didn’t make any sense! Who in their right mind would steal, not a car, BUT IT’S TIRES!? Though, that’s not even the worst part, today was a special event where admission into the water park was HALF OFF. Eventually a friend did give us a ride their, so it wasn’t that bad, but I noticed something odd: They had new tires.

 

Rain poured down from the sky like a waterfall. Thick, dark clouds covered up the sun so it was almost pitch black. A girl and her cat where cuddled up next to a warm, crackling fire. She was a plump red headed girl that slightly resembled a strawberry. Her cat was a skinny brown thing with tangled long fur. Thunder pounded outside, it was the only thing keeping them awake. Her eyes felt heavy. But suddenly she felt warm sunshine caress her cheek. The girl sat up and looked outside. The rain had stopped and sun was making everything sparkle. A smile grew on her face and she ran to get ready. She grabbed her yellow boots and pulled them on her tiny feet. The cat followed her. They were almost ready to leave, but now there was a problem. They both looked outside in sadness. Rain poured outside like a waterfall. Thick, dark clouds covered up the sun so it was almost pitch black.
