Title: Train of Doom
1Train of Doom
2I woke up with a start. The train had hit a huge
bump. I looked out the window. Through the dim
moonlight I could just make out a sign that read
North Carolina 764. North Carolina?! I was going
to California! When I looked away from the window
my eyes had adjusted to the dark. There was no
one else in my car. This was way too weird.
So a.) go see the conductor about the
destanation b.) go explore the rest of the train
for other people
Title page
3I decided to go see the conductor. But instead of
talking to him like I planned, I found his dead
body staring at me blankly from the wooden floor
of the control area. It was the scariest thing I
had ever seen. About two mintues later, as the
world started to form around me again, I
realized.oh no!...the train! a.) relax, the
train will drive itself to North Carolina by
morning b.) freak out and try to drive the train
myself
Title page
4I decided to explore the rest of the train. I
went to the dining car. No one was there, not
even the mouse that loves to eat the crumbs. Now
that was odd. Probably everyone was in the
luggage room. They all had pets. Fish, cats,
dogs, cute but noisy budgies and one weird old
lady even had a crocodile. It had its own room
though. So I a.) go find the conductor and tell
him somethings wrong b.) go and get some water
Title page
5My heart was racing. I had to drive the train
myself. I grabbed the controls and pushed all the
buttons levers and knobs I could find, and before
I knew it the train had derailed itself. It was
now speeding across the grass about to go right
over a cliff. There was nothing I could do. The
train fell, down and down. It hit the ground and
everything went black. I woke up in my room at my
dads house. I was alive and unharmed. It was all
just a dream.
Title page
6I decided to leave it. I assumed that everything
was set to arrive in North Carolina by morning.
So I went back to my bed, but I couldnt shake
the ghosts following me. Eventually I got scared,
and lost, very lost. So I hid in the washrooms
until the ghosts gave up. They were not going to
get me. I stayed in the washrooms until the train
skidded to a halt. I was safe in the streets of
North Carolina. Even though it wasnt close to
where I wanted to be, but stillI was finally
safe wait Im dead! ?

7I suddenly noticed my thirst. It felt like there
was a fire in my throat. Not a good feeling. I
resisted the urge to run to the dining car. After
a couple of hours of searching for human
civilazation I decided Id lost all of the
remaining hope in my heart, so I decided to go to
the dining car. When I went to the dining car and
got some water, it felt really good. Now down to
business. I would go look for the conductor.
8Whats that?... thatthats my cellphone in that
ghosts hand!!! Take that foul beast I said as I
wrenched out my pink sparkly cellphone out of
this teenage girl ghosts hand. That excuse for a
ghost tried to fight back but it was too easy
really, all I had to do is what I do with my
little brother. When I had finished scaring the
ghost away I quickly called my dad and of course
my awsome dad came, a little late, but he still
came. When my dad heard my train ride experience
he got a little weird. When we got home I
remembered that I had left my cellphone on the
train. Wheres all your stuff Claire? my dad
asked. Well, a long story short, I forgot all my
stuff on the train with the train with the
passengers. Im just so lucky Im alive and
telling the tale.

9 I took the chance to escape as an incredible
miracle. Without a second thought I was looking
up just enough to collide with a passing ghost. I
took one look and ran as fast as I could. I took
a deep breath and jumped. I had a hard landing
and the way I took it, it made it worse. When I
landed, I crawled into a little ball. Claire, get
a hold of yourself. I thought to myself. Id
probobly broke an ankle and will need crutches. I
called my dad and he came and picked me up. We
had a nice drive to California, awkward, but
good.

10I would be brave. I really needed and wanted to
get off this train. I felt brave so I walked
around looking for something that could help
me.. something that could help me contact my dad
with. A flare? No hes way too far for me to do
that. A cellphone, thats it! I think I remember
his number but where is it? I put it on my table
and now its gone. Well, I almost forgot that
this train is haunted. I went into the aisle. A)
Find the cellphone, B) Find the conducter (or
not)
Title page
11I was so creeped out ! I just stood there and let
out a big, terrible scream! Then I ran away as
fast as I could, still screaming. Then I stopped
as a thought dawned on me. I could be annoying
the ghosts so they might just leap out and kill
me right away. But I was scared, I couldnt help
it, I continued to scream. And there, stood the
ghost right in front of me. I was trapped. A) If
I should try to find my cellphone
B) If I should try to escape
Title page
12I couldnt find the conductor and I had looked
EVERYWHERE. Id pushed away millions of dead
bodies. Finally I looked outside and all I could
see and hear was pitch black and crow calls.
Pitch black darkness and crow calls are some of
the worst thing you can find when youre on a
deserted train. I came back in a worst state than
before. Then I a.) I do find the conductor b.) I
look for my cell phone
Title page
13I put my head out and I felt freshy air and wind
in my face! I laughed freedom! I could see a
nearby town. I thought I could jump off and run
to the town. But no too dangerous. I had felt the
door open behind me! The ghost was still there!
The ghost pushed me off the train! I woke up in
my dads house. With him looking down at me. I
remember him asking what happened but after that
I fell asleep, peacfully, with no ghostsI think!
Title page
14I stuck my head out of the door and screamed. It
had been so long since I had seen sunlight that
it seemed inhuman to me. It probably seemed
pretty inhuman to the ghosts too because they
sort ofdicintigrated. At least the ones
following me did. Suddenly I had an idea! I began
diving in and out of the cars and opening
windows, pulling curtains openand spraying
everything with air freshener. Id heard screams
of pain before but nothing like this! The ghosts
were dying!
Title page
15I have to get out of this train! I was walking
down a long part of the train, I had no idea
where I was going. Then I heard a sounda low
moaning sound! A ghost! It had to be a ghost! I
started to run but this part of the train seemed
to go on forever. I came to the end, there was a
big oak door. My only chance to get out of the
train. So a.) the door will not open b.) the
door will open
Title page
16Oh no, Its not opening! The doors not opening!
The ghost came up and well it was like it sucked
me in and then well I think I was a ghost! I got
out of the train all right. Now Im with my other
friends. Theyre ghost too. I think Ill be all
right. Live a normal life but as a ghost!
Because Im a ghost now, and you liked my story
you can go back and read it differently!
Title page
17I wandered around the train. Then all of a
sudden, I thought I saw a ghost! Well Im not
really sure. This train really creeps me out.
Then the ghost swooped past me with a noise, that
really creeped me out. I just wanted to see my
dad. So there I stood when the ghost was right
in front of me! Then it went down the aisle. I
didnt know what to do! a.) I should be
brave b.) I should run away screaming
