The Evil Sponge Part 1
Jessica Pilkington
Hi, my names Kara, and I'd been having terrible feelings all day. Today, we was moving house but not just house, country; I lived in New York with my mum, dad and annoying little brother! Unfortunately, it was time to say bye New York and hello Mexico. Oh yeah, I have a dog, he's a cute little black pug called Skipper, a very friendly dog he is!
Once we'd arrived in Mexico, my terrible feelings had gotten worse, and I was going to find out why! Just like a kind, loving daughter would do, I carried the boxes into the livingroom, and started unpacking. You know dogs, they have a great sense of smell; some more than others depending on the breed. Skipper is one of those that were born with a good sense of smell and he shown it, a lot! As I continued unpacking Skipper started barking, so like everyone would do I went into the kitchen and checked it out after putting Skipper in the back garden with his toys. What was he barking at? There was only one way to find out; by looking under the sink.
I opened the kitchen cabinet and switched on a torch as it was <b>exceedingly</b> dark. As I looked into the cabinet a quiet hissing noise came out. What could it be? I reached into the cabinet grabbing a soft sponge. Is that all it was ? Was that it ? Skipper had been barking over a sponge! I threw the sponge on the floor and exited the room <b>briskly</b> ! I was so angry I'd just wasted my time on a stupid sponge. I went back into the kitchen and seen the sponge on the floor then took it upstairs. I showed it mum and she said it was unusual for Skipper to be barking at something so <b>ordinary</b>, however at this point we had no idea how <b>unordinary</b> the sponge really was! Dad came upstairs with mum's favorite vase when ... BANG!CRASH! Mum's vase had smashed all over my parents room. I helped pick up the pieces but if you think the vase smashing was bad then wait till you hear the other bad luck we had!
It was my 2nd day in my new home and every morning I wash my face so I did but today didn't turn out as planned. It all happened when I was using that sponge Skipper found under the kitchen sink. I was washing my face with soap and couldn't find the towel so I grabbed the sponge opened my eyes when ... AHHHHHH! I found out the sponge was alive! It had evil red eyes and sharp teeth like a knife! My brother rushed in scared as I had screamed extremely loud; however I had knocked the glass cup and Mike my brother had trodden on a sharp piece of glass. I shouted mum, and she sprinted in within the blink of an eye seeing the loss of blood Mike was loosing from the glass mum sat with mike and I rung the ambulance shaking as I spoke! Luckily, the paramedics arrived and rushed Mike into hospital. And when you think the terrible luck we had couldn't get worse than that it did!
