It all began when someone left the window open. David Chen has only owned his house for one week. It was a tall dark house. David didn’t question why the price was so low. The house was tall and green. The nearest house was almost 12 miles away. David Chen is a pretty strong guy. But David is short too. Freddy didn’t want to disagree with David so he went along with the decision of buying the house. David and Fred were drinking tea as they saw the bird fly by. “Would you look at that? That bird flew right out of the house,” Fred exclaimed. “The window is open up there. I’ll go close it,” David responded. Once David shut the window he looked at wall. There were birds painted on it. However, David noticed a bird had gone missing from the wall. His pants suddenly grew heavy. In David’s mind he heard a voice saying “Must be pretty ironic how that bird flew out of here.” David shrugged it off and went to drink tea with Fred. That night, when Fred was in bed he heard a bird. “David! Wake up I’m scared,” Fred whimpered. David looked at Fred and shook his head. “How did I end up with him?” David thought. In the morning Fred woke up David by yelling, “CLEANING DAY!” David said he’d clean the first and second floor. Fred had to clean the third-floor bedroom. When David was halfway done through the first floor he heard Fred scream. David could hear a similar sound to nails scratching a chalkboard. David rushed up the long dark stairs. As soon as David got into the room all the noise had stopped. Fred was on the ground, andthere was blood smeared over his shirt. David slung Fred’s arm over his shoulder and helped him out of the room. David suddenly stopped. On the wall, one of the birds was coming off and was flying. It was unbelievable the ... ... middle of paper ... ...d David and swooped down directly at him. The birds gnawed at his shirt and chewed bits of his flesh until David could speak no more. The birds took David’s body back to Brundan. Brundan ripped the skeleton out of David’s body. “Well, I’m going to eat this in the hole. Minions! Go hide on the wall!” Two months had passed since David Chen and his friend Fred had been murdered by Brundan. No one knew about David Chen and Fred’s disappearances. Brundan was hiding in the woods waiting for his next victim. The next day a man approached the house with another man in a suit. Brundan listened to what they spoke about. “It’s a done deal sir! The house is yours,” the man in the suit said. “Great! But the name is Kevin,Kevin Box,” the other man replied. A mischievous smile grew on Brundan’s face. Brundan turned to a crow next to him and whispered, “Tell them we have a visitor."
