I walked in to my school and couldn't help to look at a group of people surrounding a wall. I walked over to take a look at what it was...


I read the words and couldn't believe what was written. I thought to myself that everyone will be shocked when they walk into this hall. On the wall there were these words written in blood, 'Death awaits a mysterious boy, when the clock above strikes twelve.'

For a strange reason everyone was looking straight at me and whispering things. I couldn't bare to hear it so I walked home with a fear held in me.

What horror awaits me, if I am the boy, no one really knows. Except that something horrible will happen to a boy when the clock strikes twelve. I await the fear that will happen in five hours.

As I wait I can't help but think that something awaits me where the shadows and the moon meet.

Next time you start a story, have a little more to get people hooked; because you didn't write much. There is some major tense issues, seems like some things are past and present tense, start by fixing that. I am curious to see where you are going with this.

Hey there, Oregon Girl! You've got a great start here, but it could stand to be added on to. :)

So I think this is somewhere in the middle of your story? If so, that's great! If not, well...

I'll just come out and say it. I have no clue what's going on here! :shock: Who wrote the words? What impact do they have? Where are they written? And who's POV is this coming from? Goodness Gracious, girl! :wink:

The first thing that came to mind was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, so now I have it hammered into my brain that this is taking place at a school. It's very interesting and I'm at the point of begging to find out what's happening!
Could you please add on to this? PLEASE?

Thanks!

It was rather bland to me and I had a flash back to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. There wasn't much description so I didn't get a good feel of where they were.

You misspelled 'straight.'

And then, in your last sentence when you first used 'await' I think you meant 'wait.' Saying 'await' there doesn't make much sense.

I have to agree with most of what was said. It does need more depth and more detail.

I think that with these things and a dash of editing, you could definately have a great beginning to an even greater story.

umm, yeah. There are some major issues with this, and not the least of which have been pointed out. But besides that, I found myself reading through quickly, and not really remembering anything that I read. More description would be nice, and i'd like to feel more emotion. As a premise or the beggining of a story, this could be really cool, but it needs some work.

I do agree with all the posts before mine... so I really have nothing to add... everyone already said everything!!

Once this is flushed out and details are added it'll be a good prologue or first chapter of a great story!
