This story was written February 1996, when he was in the third grade. This was our first year to home school, so we were very proud of his work.
Hard to believe it is now December 1997! Our 3rd year homeschooling and so many wonderful stories later, and I can't find time to put them on here! Maybe I should make him do it for typing/computer class. hmmmmmmmm ..... Check back soon!

The Tale of the Horrifying Haunted School 
by Roland, III

Just when you thought it was safe to go to school!

Chapter 1
Hello, I'm Nick Wisenfeld, IV. You can call me Quatro. My friend Peppey
Perre Eugene is coming on the most horrifying trip ever with me!

February 6, 1996
It was just another boring day at Baker Street with me delivering papers. I
thought to day was going to be like any other day, but I was wrong. I was
dead wrong!
With the breath of wind at my face, riding my bike was a fun way to go,
until the sky turned a scary color of charcoal black. Then it started to
rain hard, and I was soaked. 
When I got home, everybody stared at me. I was in trouble! My mom sent me to
bed a whole hour earlier.
The next morning, Peppey & I got on our ten speed bikes and rode to Johnson
Avenue to look at an old school. Some people say no one comes out once they
go inside! 
"Weird!" whispered Peppey.
As we entered the crudely fashioned school, a ragged old man in a faded old
blue  janitor's suit met us. He warned us to stay clear of any rattling
sounds such as chains, footsteps, or the word - death!
We entered with a wax candle. The soft radiant glow soon blew out. We found
ourselves in a class room with the word:  d-e-a-t-h  written boldly on the
chalk board!
Next we went through winding, twisting tunnels full of confusion and a
labyrinth that finally led to the library.
We listened and heard chains! This time, we looked around and saw behind us
.. a ghost!
He was wearing big gray rusty chains. He was mouthing some sort of message. 
"G-O  B-A-C-K!"  Go back!
Either we're not wanted here, or we've missed something. Then we heard some
sinister evil howling of a dog or a werewolf! We ran for cover.
We hid behind a wooden desk and saw a 7' tall man that knocked on a wall.
He said, "TNT".
With a nerve wrecking click a secret door swung open!
Peppey whined, "I don't think we should go in!"
"Don't be such a 'fraidy-cat. We won't get gobbled up by the boogy man. Now
c'mon! Let's go in!" I said, taking charge of the situation.
After 25 minutes of crawling, we found bones of humans and  ... and snakes!!
Maybe I was wrong about getting gobbled up!
After 15 more minutes of crawling, it was noon. We found a laboratory with
the janitor talking to a werewolf! He was feeding him meat! 
Then Peppey sneezed!
The werewolf howled and started to charge! We crawled for our lives!
That night, it was going to be a full moon and a scary night.
We thought we should run for our lives! We ran fast to get to our bikes!

Chapter Two
Oh, no!

"Oh, no!" we screamed in wretched horror.
As we got to our bikes, there were zombies, ghouls, and the same ghost we
saw in the library!
The odds were thin, but I remembered zombies hate water. We soaked ourselves
in water and then drenched the zombies!

KER BLAMO!!!!!
Every zombie turned into a flower. As for the ghouls, they ran away! But
still the werewolf and ghost were out there, loose!
We've had enough! We must get home!
Peppey and I rode off into the sunset, very wet, but still friends. No one
will believe us, but we know the truth is out there.

The End

The following is a story sent to Triple by one of his pen friends from England. Jayme Lee is 7 years old and has a wonderful imagination!

Dear Triple,
I have a ghost story to tell you, it is called ...

The Ghost Next Door
by Jayme Lee

One day there was two girl’s and one parrott. One of the girl’s name was Amy and the other one was called Goldie. The parrott name was John.

The girls and the parrott really argued, because of a ghost which was greedy, this ghost had a whole bag of gold just to himself. So Amy said, I’m 11 years old so I’m not scared of anything. She went up the stairs of the old creaky house ... creak...

into the house...

Creach...

and there she saw in front of her eyes “THE TREASURE!” She put her hand out and then the ghost popped out and said “You leave that treasure alone, it stays on the floor.” Amy was so scared that she stayed on the spot for a full six seconds!, and then ran as fast as her legs would carry her ... down the stairs ... Creak... and out of the door ... Creach ... and she said to her friends, “don’t go up into that room, there is a ghost in that house.”

John said “I will go up into that room then”. So he flew up the stairs and into the room, without a Creak... or a Creach... He would love to get the treasure. He put his wing out, and he was just about to get the treasure, when the ghost appeared and said “don’t touch the treasure, it stays on the floor”. John was so scared, he flew down the stairs and out the house without a single Creach or Creak, and said to his friends, “You are right, there is a ghost up there!”

Goldie said “you two are such wimps”. I’ll go in the house then. She went into the house and up the stairs ... Creak ... into the room ... Creach ... and got the treasure and did not think it was going to be that easy and she could not see the ghost anywhere. Creak or a Creach. She said “I can get the treasure, why can’t you? and I didn’t see the ghost! Why did you?”

Amy and John didn’t know what to say accept, “OH!”

And that is how the story ends.

Ivan the Terrible
by Triple
Ivan the Terrible One night while the family was not home, Ivan sat sulking in his chair. It had been weeks since he had been played with. The more he thought about this, the more enraged he became.

Finally he said, “Ooooh! It just makes me so mad! Little Miss Molly gets played with every single day.”

“Yeah!” a chorus of his men yelled.

“And Commander Will Cox gets even more attention than us!” one of them shouted.

The big unruly mob yelled in approval.

Then suddenly, the tallest and ugliest soldier in the group asks, “Why not capture Miss Molly? Then we could dispose of her in the stinky dumpster down the street.”

There is a silence. Then the mob begins to grumble in agreement.

Meanwhile back at H.Q., Commander Will Cox is listening in on Ivan ...

“Yeah, OK! Now get your weapons ready we’re going right now.”

“Oh no!” exclaimed C.W.C. “I must save Miss Molly!”

With careful planning, a box of Lego pieces, some 40 Micro Machine Men, an aircraft carrier, jets, and missiles, he was ready. He then assigned jobs that his soldiers should do. First he had them put up Lego blocks at every road, so the green army could not advance. Second, the Jets were ordered to run a circuit of the town and countryside. Third, the air craft carrier was made ready in the fish tank. Finally, they set up all the rocket launchers. It was tough work, but it soon paid off.

After the city was cleared out, the war started. First, it was just name calling using a messenger. Then insults were exchanged by the electric train. Then the situation turned into a raging battle.

CWC fired the first shot which was a missile. It was a direct hit! Ivan was not amused. He tore down the blockades and drove his tanks into the city. The heat was on. Luckily, CWC’s solders put hidden poppers in the road. The tanks were destroyed. Ivan’s men ran away for fear of more poppers, got lost in the sock drawer, and were never seen again. Ivan, the coward, snuck away, but CWC’s men eventually caught him and banished him to the land of the sandbox. Miss Molly was safe at last.
