Medusa and Her Cat

*Unlike my niece's effort, Monsty Eye, my nephew did physically write this one himself. In fact, other than some references to stories I told to him (and a short film I showed him), I had zero influence in the writing of this . That stated, it has been edited for spelling and grammar and I did pick the title. Fear not however, for his mother can enjoy the original handwritten version whenever she wants... as long as she doesn't lose the notebook it is written in, of course.

It is a dark night and a little girl named Kaitlin, and her big sister Maredeth, were walking home from school because they missed the bus. So they walked home all by themselves. But then there were two paths.

So Kaitlin said, "Let's go left."

Then Maredith said, "No, we go right."

Then they started to fight over which way to go. Then it got past midnight and they were both very hungry and so tired. Then they fell asleep. When Kaitlin woke up, Maredith was reading a book.

Then Kaitlin said, "Hey, Sister, what are you reading?"

Then Maredith said, "We've got to get out of here!"

"Why?" asked Kaitlin.

"This place is haunted!"

"No, it's not," said Kaitlin.

"Oh, you're right. I'm just crazy. Let's continue our journey."

Then it got dark and they fell asleep. When Kaitlin woke up, Maredith was missing a leg and was bleeding really bad, so Kaitlin woke Maredith up. Then Maredith was screaming.

"What's wrong?" Kaitlin asked.

"Look out, Kaitlin!" screamed Maredith.

Then Kaitlin turned around. "What's going on?"

"See?" asked Maredith. "I told you this placed was haunted."

When they fell asleep, Kaitlin woke from a scream. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"I saw something eating your arm," replied Maredith.

When Kaitlin looked at her arm she started screaming. "Maredith! What was eating my arm?"

"It was a cat with arms!" Maredith answered. "I'll be a lookout tonight."

But when Kaitlin woke up, Maredith was gone. But that wasn't all. Her feet were gone. Kaitlin started crying. Then she saw something move. Then something walked up to her with snake hair and the last thing Kaitlin saw was Maredith inside of stone.
