Sorry I have not been around
I apologize for not being around much lately. Recently I just got back from visiting my sister in Korea. And I've been busy working to catch back up at work. I have not died but at the same time I find myself at a loss for story writing currently. I have not seen anything lately to motivate me into turning out any new stories either.
On another note I started trying out the opened beta for Ragnarok Online 2: Legend of the second with some friends of mine. Looks like a pretty promising game other then it's hosted in china and at peak hours i find myself lagging really bad. I think I need a new computer too because mine seems to be making a lot of noise while I try to play Ragnarok Online.
Otherwise that pretty much covers everything. New Years was pretty boring same with Christmas but I had fun in Korea at least. I'll try to post something constructive again soon when I get my head out of the clouds.

The haunting of Stillwater Town Part 2
I told him it sounds good it would give me enough time to
write a good story and everyone else agreed. About two hours later and mid day
we arrived at the train station we got off with the supplies and thanked the
train attendant for helping us carry everything off but he refused to help
carry anything farther than the train station. I thought that it was silly for
him to be so cautious about the town and I said the town is not going to come
after you and kill you. And he was like other towns no but this one will.
The other men in our party helped carry all the supplies off
the train and we wondered into the empty town looking for a place to put our
bags and stay for the night. As we came into town we saw the rope hanging from
the tree exactly like it was told to us from the story. It seemed almost like
the town had not changed from the day that the hero was killed.
We went right to the hotel which from the outside seemed to
be rundown but when we entered in from the front door everything was clean and
pristine as if someone had been taking care of the place all of the years it
was empty. Kari made a comment saying these
ghosts do really well housekeeping and how she should hire them to clean her
mansion and Karen said to her not to say spooky things like that. Then we went upstairs to check the rooms they
were all in really good condition almost like someone was expecting us and
freshened up the place for us. That only added to my excitement and I told
everyone how this was going to be the best book anyone will ever read.
The men went out to gather wood for the fire and the rest of
us got set up to make dinner since the sun was starting to set. All the time
while we were setting up nothing special at all happened no ghost sounds or
encounters nothing out of the ordinary even when the men got back they did not
notice anything strange either. But I knew there had to be something to the
story we heard. After dinner we sat up
talking for awhile and then we all decided to get some rest.
At first it took me awhile to fall asleep but as soon as I
did I started to dream. In my dream I
could see the tree with the hangman’s noose and I turned to look around the
town was empty when I turned back I could see a man hanging from it he called
out help me as he hung from the tree and the blood was dripping down to the
sand. It felt so real and freaked me out that I woke from my dream violently
and Karen was hovering over me and it was morning again she asked me what was
wrong. And I told her about the dream I had. She did not like the fact I had a
dream about someone hanging from the hangman’s rope and said that it might be a
bad omen.
I told the others about it and they said it would be a good
fit for the book but none of them were worried about it because it was only a
dream. I started to agree with them and brushed it off. During the day we went exploring the town but
we really did not encounter anything which was worth writing about. So I just
filled in descriptions about the town and the different buildings in the town.
During that night Jon had gone outside to grab more firewood
and came in shortly after saying he heard what sounded like a little girl
crying outside. We all went out with flashlights looking to see if we could
find anything. We searched for awhile and did not see or hear anything while we
were outside. Eventually we all got tired and came in. Billy said that it could
have just been a raccoon with its babies since they can make noise like a
crying baby. We all decided to turn in for the night and go to sleep. I
finished adding what had happened within the book because I still was not
convinced that the sound was a raccoon when we did not see one outside.
The next day I decided to go for a walk by myself I told the
others so that they knew and Billy said he could go with me but I told him it
was alright and went off on my own. I
walked down one of the forest path's and eventually came to an opening where
the ruins of an old abandoned house was. The house looked to be an old mansion
but was boarded up. I walked around the back of the building and I saw a girl
who was playing with the grass. I walked up to her and asked her what she was
doing all alone and where her parents are and she said that she didn't know
where they are but that she was just playing.
Then I asked if she was the one crying last night and she
said that she was because no one would play with her. Her eyes lit up with
excitement and she said "really?" And I told her of course and then
she said will you play with me forever? And I told her sure at least until I
have to leave. The girl said okay and
grabbed me by the hand and I was walking with her back to the front of the
house. I heard Billy coming towards us
and the girl let go of my hand and said I have to leave and I was telling her
to wait so I could introduce her to Billy.
Billy looked at me funny asking me "Why are you talking
to yourself?" I told him I wasn't that there was a little girl. And he
told me I was standing talking to myself. When I went back I told the others
about it and everyone thought that I had too much sun or something. But Richard sided with me and said that maybe
it was an apparition or ghost of some kind. But for the rest of the night we
had dinner and went to bed and nothing happened.
I wrote part of my book and added about the girl and what I
experienced and how Billy could not see her.
Then I went to bed. But I was suddenly awoken by the sound of a
scream I jumped out of my bed and was
met at my door by Richard and the others who all heard the same thing. We heard
what sounded like horses outside and the yelling and screaming of someone we
got lanterns and grabbed guns from the stuff we brought and noticed Billy was
not with us so me and Richard went to his room to wake him. Both of us could
not imagine how anyone could sleep though all the noise when we got up to his
room it was a mess the bed was torn apart the window was open but Billy was
missing. The room was on a second floor we looked out the window and there was
no sign of him falling out the window.
We rushed down the stairs and told the others then went
outside and looked around there was no horses or screams coming from anywhere
we searched the town for Billy but could not find out what happened to him the
town was empty and no Billy. After awhile Richard suggested we go to sleep and
search for him in the daylight so we could see without lanterns we decided to
do just that.
Before going back to sleep I continued to write the story
just because it was a part of it and I
figured that we would find out it was nothing just the wind and that Billy
might have been sleep walking or something silly like that. And I went to
sleep.
The next morning I woke to
Karen shaking me violently saying Billy's dead being half asleep I
called her daddy and told her to let me sleep and then she dragged me out of
bed and made me get dressed. When we got
outside she dragged me over to the spot with the hangman's noose and everyone
was standing around it I looked up and there was Billy's beaten corpse hanging
from the rope covered in blood there were marks across his face arms and body
that looked like he had been dragged across the ground but the marks around his
neck proved that he had also been hung.
Jon climbed up the tree and cut the rope and slowly lowered
Billy's body to the ground so we could bury him. We all felt horrible for what
happened to Billy and after he was buried we had a long discussion over dinner
saying how this was getting serious none of us thought it was ghosts we said
that maybe there are bandits living here in the town which know we are
here. At this point I could not do anything
but agree.
That night Richard decided we should have a night watch to
make sure that nothing else happens while we are sleeping. So he decided to
appoint himself as the first watch Bob said he would take the second and then
Jon allowing shifts so that each of them could get rest. So the rest of us went
to bed.
Suddenly I was awoken to the sound of a horrifying screaming
noise that sounded like Annie. I rushed out of bed and ran into the hallway
where I ran into the others we all went over to her room and tried to open the
door it was locked shut. We called out to her telling her to open the door but
there was no answer from her. We tried
to force the door opened but it would not open. Then Richard went outside to
look from the window and looked up at the window he did not see anything and
came back up with a steel bar to force open the door. I went down stairs and
looked up just to make sure nothing was happening while they opened the door.
Then shortly after I saw Richard at the window and he called down to me saying
she was gone. I told him I would look
around the town for her.
I started to walk though the town calling out to Annie
trying to find her. There was no sign of her I turned a corner and got a weird
feeling like something cold was touching my shoulder I turned around quickly
and the girl I had saw the one day was behind me. I asked her if she saw my
friend Annie and the girl smiled and said maybe she went to play. I heard
Richard calling for me and I turned around to see what he wanted. But when I turned back around the girl was
gone.
Richard told me they found Annie but she was dead. I asked
how she died and Richard said that there were no marks on her at all but her
face looked like she was scared to death. I said that something must have
scared her so bad she had a heart attack then. I started to get really worried
and suggested that we should try to get to the train station and find a way to
leave early. Richard agreed with me and went back to tell the others.
I looked around for the girl and did not see her so I went
to walk back and she was in front of me when I turned to walk back. She was pouting and said that I cannot leave
because I promised to stay and play forever. I told her that the town was
dangerous and that she should leave. She giggled and said you will be staying
here. I went to walk past her to leave and she grabbed me by the arm and said
we will be together forever now. And before I could say no she was gone again.
I walked back and told the others about what the little girl
said and they all stressed about leaving. We packed up our stuff and walked out
to the train station. When we got there Richard and the others looked for a way
to contact the mayor or the train conductor but the telegraph system was not
working we decided to wait for a train to pass I continued to write the story
while we were waiting for a train to pass.
A train never did pass by as it got late Richard said it
would be wise to go back to the town and stay in the hotel rather than staying at
the train station. We left our bags at the station with a note in case one of trains
passed by and headed back to the hotel.
We decided it was a better idea to stay down stairs in the
same room so nothing could happen to anyone. We were all frightened not knowing
what was happening. I continued to keep records of what happened and writing
the story. The others asked me how I
could continue to write with two of our friends dead and I said it keeps my
mind off my fears.
I started to fall asleep and I caught myself and rubbed my
eyes when I looked up the girl was standing near the front entrance and I told
everyone the girl is here. Richard and the rest of them saw and asked the girl
what she's doing here and I said to them you can see her now? And they said yes
they could.
The girl said all of you are going to die except for you as
she pointed at me she said I was going to be her friend forever. Richard said
she was a evil little girl and the girl giggled then started laughing evilly
and disappeared. It really freaked all of us out and we knew we had to get out
of the town as fast as possible. We realized we could not just wait until the appointed
time and planned on starting to walk along the train tracks and leave the town
the next morning. We all decided to get some sleep we locked the door and
closed the blinds and went to sleep in the same room.
While I was sleeping I went into a deep dream in my dream I
was at the tree which I first had met the girl she was there with a man the
same one who I saw originally hanging from the tree the same hero that tried to
save the town. The girl turned and saw me and said that the hero was her friend
but he left her. I told her he did not leave that he was killed and she grinned
and said that she killed him for leaving. The I closed my eyes and looked again
and the hero was headless and the girl said you will not leave me anymore. I
told her I have to leave so I can finish my story and the girl asked what it
was about. And I told her it was a horror story the girl started giggling and
said its unfinished. I asked her what she meant by that and she said horror
stories never have happy endings silly.
I woke up and found myself outside in the barn were Annie
had died. I could hear someone calling me in the distance I felt a hand on my
shoulder and turned around and saw a headless corpse and screamed and ran and
tripped over a some tool's on the ground. I picked up the pitch fork and
without looking I stabbed the corpse. I pushed so hard till I could feel the
pitch fork inside of the body. When I looked up Timothy was in front of me
blood pouring out of his mouth. He asked me why Christine as he fell to the
floor bleeding to death. I thought it was a dream I closed my eyes and opened
them again my hands were covered in his blood.
The others came in as I started screaming and crying and saw
Timothy dead on the floor with the pitch fork in his stomach and the blood all
over my hands. Richard and the others were shocked and angry I tried to explain
what happened and they wouldn't believe me they took me to the hotel and locked
me up and treated me like a prisoner. Then they left to bury Timothy. I
continued to scream and cry saying that I did not do anything wrong but no one
would listen.
I sat down and waited for them to come back and the girl
came to me and she said even your best friends have left you but I am still
your friend. She continued to say they
abandoned me. I felt sad and alone. She said that my friends are most likely thinking
of leaving without me and I got more sad.
Hours later they came to the door but would not open it
Richard said that they were going to leave and that because I'm a murderer I
had to stay here in the town. I tried screamed and cried out that it was not my
fault it was the girl and Karen said to me you were the one with the weapon in
your hand you probably killed everyone and blamed it on the girl. It was like
none of them would listen to me and then
they said they hoped I die in the town and Richard throw my book on the
ground in the room with me and locked the door then he said that I was never a
writer I was just a mental case.
I started to cry and the little girl appeared and patted me
on the head and said it's okay Christine I'm still here for you we will always
be friends. I thanked her and said how I was so angry at all of them. The
little girl picked up my book and gave me it and she said you have to finish it
still. I told her she was right. I told her that I wish they were not going to
get to leave and she said you could fix that and I said how I'm locked in here?
And the door opened on its own and she said you better stop them before they
leave.
I picked up an axe in a nearby barn after I left my prison
and gave the little girl my book to hold and went in the direction toward the
train station ready to take my vengeance. As I got closer to the train station I could
hear Richard tell Bob to get the carriage from the stable near the train
station so they could use it to carry their stuff.
I went into the stable from a side door and came up behind
Bob with the axe in my hand he turned around and terror was written all over
his face he was like how did you get out we locked you up. He backed up and
tried to get away. I hit him in the back with the axe and he started to yell I
kept chopping at his body while he tried to escape and I was laughing and
enjoying killing him I could hear the others coming but I did not care as he was
dying he dragged his body away with his intestines coming out bleeding to death
I hide behind one of the carriages and Jon came in to his rescue but it was too
late.
Jon was trying to ask him what happened and tried to stop
the bleeding and I came out behind Jon and said I'll show you what happened and
tried to hit him and he grabbed my hands stopping me from using the axe on him.
He tried to call out for help and I kicked him in the testicles making him fall
to his knees then hit him in the face with the axe and kept hitting him till he
was dead. I was covered in blood but all I could do was laugh I laughed so hard
it made the others come and I left out the door before they caught me.
Richard in the others came in to Jon and Bob's battered
bodies and realized they needed to escape they decided to only take what was
really needed which was food. Jane said
that she it was a good idea to make sure they had water too since they did not
know if there would be water on the way. Richard did not like the idea of Jane going
alone so he told Kari to go with her to get the water. They found a canteen in
the general store and went to the well in the center of the town to get water.
The little girl started crying and told them she was scared
because I was around and Kari came over to her telling her not to cry Jane
yelled at her not to get close because of the other day but it was too late I
came up behind of Jane and Kari saw me as she turned and could not say anything
in time to save her I chopped at her neck with my axe and she fell to the
ground still squirming and crying bleeding to death on the ground. Kari
screamed in horror and started to run away tripping and falling over her own
feet.
I could hear Richard calling out to her and I kept calling
her name and saying it was too late for her to. She was crying and told me that
she was sorry that she did not want to leave me and I was like is that true?
And she was like yes begging for her life. I told her to show her affection by
kissing my hand and telling me that I was the best writer and she said it and
kissed my hand and I hit her in the head with the back of the axe handle and
left her there and hide when Richard came.
He came alone and I waited for him to come to her rescue
before hitting him in the back of the head. The little girl asked what I was
doing by not killing them and I told her the story would not be complete unless
more people died by hanging and I started laughing. I dragged their bodies over
near the hangman's tree and the little girl brought a horse so we could hang
Richard. After I had him tied up and the noose around his neck I splashed him
with water to wake him up. He was dazed
and confused and did not know what was going on he saw that I had Kari and he
started to struggle and I told him he should be more careful since he's in
danger too. The little girl giggled and said to him that if he did not calm
down he might lose his head.
Richard told me to let Kari go and he would die in her place
and I said isn't that nice of him I told him I wished I had friends like that
and I started laughing and he was like what about Karen and I said all of you
left me behind what makes you think I plan on leaving any of you alive. Karen
woke up to the conversation and started screaming and crying telling me to kill
Richard and let her go and I said look how quickly she is ready to abandon her
group leader and I started laughing more and told her to leave.
The little girl was shocked telling me why would I let her
leave but before she could finish her sentence I throw the axe at her back and
it embedded into her back causing her to fall to the ground bleeding to death
and the girl was pretty impressed saying that she did not think I was so
heartless. Richard yelled at me for hitting her which only caused the noose to
tighten around his neck more which made him choke.
I picked up Kari and pulled the axe out of her back which
only caused her to bleed faster she was losing consciousness slowly so before I let her die I kicked the horse
which caused Richard to get hung snapping his neck and killing him instantly.
She mumbled that we were her friends and I said only the little girl is my
friend. I dropped her body to the floor and left her bleeding and picked up the
axe and started walking away.
The Little girl was worried and said you are not leaving me
now are you? And I told her I don't leave friends but I have one more person
before the story is done. I followed the train tracks seeing Karen's foot
prints as I went along until they stopped at a point and there was a small
abandoned station. I called out to Karen telling her I was afraid that the real
killer was going to kill me too. She answered saying you're the killer and that
she would kill me if I came to her.
I swung the door opened and she swung a pipe at the
direction of the door which just missed me I was standing there crying and
saying you would kill your best friend? And she let her guard down and I swung
sideways with the axe which was behind my back and hit her in the chest killing
her close to instantly. I dragged her body back and piled all of the bodies in
the same barn were Annie was killed.
Then the girl gave me my book and I continued to write the
story until it was finished and left the story at the train station along with
the other items. And went back to the
town with the little girl.
A day later the train stopped into the station but none of
the people who were dropped off could be found. The conductor took the items
which had been sitting at the station but refused to search the town. One of
the passengers noticed a book fall from
the items and she was bored and decided to read the book only to find out it
was written by the famous author Christine. The last few pages of the book was
written in red ink.
The book was later called Haunting Of Stillwater and
published it was the final book written by the Author Christine and it was
found later that the last few pages were written in the author's own blood.

The Girl And The Island
Once upon a time there was a girl who lived all alone on an
island. She did not know how she got there or if there was anyone else who was
with her. The only memories that the girl had was living on the island. There
was a castle built on the island. The castle was built upon the rocks of the
side of a mountain that overlooked the ocean. The castle was where the girl lived. She would sleep there in a room just for herself. She would also eat there.
There was no one else around to spend time with her because
she was alone. The girl could not speak so she had no way of calling other
people to let them know that she was there so she was never sure if there might
be someone else on the island who just did not know she was there.
She spent many of her day’s searching the island looking for
other people who could talk to her. As
each day passed it seemed like no one was on the island and she was all alone.
Eventually she gave up looking for other people and stopped leaving the castle
because she knew there was nothing special outside which she had not already
seen.
She would spend her time trying to think of things to do in
the castle. Then one day she found a hidden room which led her into a library
filled with books. There were so many books it made the girl happy because she
knew that the stories would keep her company. She would do nothing but read
books every day and at night dream of being in the stories that she read.
As time passed the girl eventually ran out of stories that
she could read because she had read every story within the library. This upset
the girl. She tried to think of ways to get more books but there was no way for
her to get them. She tried to search the castle for another hidden room with
more books and there was none.
Then she came up with an idea she said to herself I could
make my own books and read them. She gathered some paper and then searched the
beach for a feather and made some ink out of berries that she found growing on
the island.
She thought hard about a story and how to write it and when
she was satisfied with how it sounded in her head and thought it was good
enough to make into a story she began to write. The girl wrote a whole page
within a short time.
But when the girl looked at what she had wrote there was
nothing but ink spots she could not understand what she had wrote. She tried
again and again and the same thing happened she knew what she wanted to put
down on the paper but when she did it was only a bunch of ink spots and was
unreadable.
The girl thought it was the feather she was using which was
bad so she tried to write with her finger and the outcome was the same anytime
the girl would try to write down her story it was unreadable. It made her cry that she could not save the
story she was thinking of.
The girl continued to try writing for days and days hoping
that something would change and she would be able to read even just one page of
her own story. She thought to herself
why I am cursed to not be able to communicate.
She had always thought not being able to speak was not so bad because
she could still write not realizing that even her writing was affected by the
same curse.
The girl slowly began to give up hope realizing that she
could never tell the story that she wanted to and knowing that she was alone
and there was no one around to even keep her company. The pain and despair was slowly destroying
her inside and she still had no way to even express her feelings or let them
out.
The girl got into a rage hating the island the castle and
the world that she was stuck in because it was lonely and there was no way to
communicate. In her rage she started a fire and burned all the books in the
library the fire got out of hand and spread to the rest of the castle.
The girl stood outside the castle as it burned with the piece
of paper which she had tried to write her story on crying deeply. She said to
herself that’s it! It’s done… I’m done… Then the girl went to the side of the
cliff’s standing on the edge of the rocks looking down at the water.
The girl felt like there was nothing that she could do to
fix her problems. There was no way for her to communicate and she couldn’t
write her story. She threw the paper and let it fall down the cliff and into
the ocean. Then the girl jumped off of the cliff and was never seen from again.
The haunting of Stillwater Town Part 1
Once upon a time there was a woman who had a interest in writing stories that had mystery themes or even enjoyed writing stories which were about ghosts and haunting. Her name was Christine and she often traveled from place to place anywhere that the train rails could travel collecting people’s stories and turning them into books. She was quite a popular writer at the time with some of the major book stores carrying her amazing stories.
Of course even as a writer she had a normal life outside of her mystery and haunting stories. Her father had asked if she would travel to California to visit her aunt who was sick. She tried as best as she could to make up a million and one excuses why she couldn’t but alas her father was the winner at the end of the argument. She went up stairs and started packing her bags very frustrated and huffing about having to even go. There was a knock on the door down stairs and she was so angry she just ignored it even when her father had called her multiple times to come down and get it.
Her father gave up and went to the front door to answer it when he opened it he saw it was Karen one of Christine’s friends he apologized for her not answering the door because she’s in a bad mood today. Karen said to him there was no need to apologize because she knows how stubborn I could be I was listening from the upstairs. I heard Karen coming up stairs and when she got near I started to mumble about how frustrated I was about having to go to California. And of course when Karen came in she was like it’s not that bad it might be fun maybe you’ll find some new material for another book she said.
I told her I seriously doubt anything will happen and by the time I get to California my aunt will be fine and it will be a boring trip and uneventful. Then Karen said I have a wonderful idea why don’t I go with you on your trip it might be more fun if you have someone to talk to. I thought about it for a few moments and decided it was a good idea so I rushed down the stairs and said to my father that Karen needs tickets to go to or I wouldn’t go my dad put his palm over his face and let out a deep sigh and said okay but you better make sure you make it to your aunts. And Karen chimed in that she would make sure that I got there okay and my father said at least there is one responsible girl going.
That night I started to think about the positive being on a train thinking that train robbers could attack the train and there could be a murder mystery or some other kind of event that could happen which would make for a perfect story. I kept myself awake all night thinking about stories I could write about that morning came before I got any sleep. My father knocked on the door telling me I should get ready to go before I end up missing my train. I got washed up and dressed and brought all my bags down to the automobile and then we where off to pick up my friend Karen. Even Karen said she was so excited to be going with me that she didn’t sleep either and my father said both of us would most likely end up sleeping though all of the trip and I knew that couldn’t happen especially because it was going to take two weeks to get to California.
My father helped us get seated in the box car that we were staying in and shortly after the conductor warned us that we would get underway soon we said goodbye to my father and he got off the train and headed out of the station both of us were brimming with excitement for the adventure that we were on. We did end up falling asleep and resting not too long after departing and the trip was pretty long we managed to keep ourselves entertained by making up stories and telling them to each other and playing other simple games or just enjoying the scenery of the trip. But unfortunately nothing worth writing happened at all.
After about a week and a half of riding on the train even Karen started to agree that the trip was boring and a bother and keeps whining about wanting to be in California already and I agreed with her. Then a day later me and Karen were walking back to are box car and we saw these men in black coats coming towards us. I thought maybe this will be the train robbery that I was hoping for and they got closer me and Karen moved to the side allowing them room to pass. They opened the door to the box car we were in and one of them looked at me and was walking toward me like he wanted something. I blurted out I have nothing you can steal and he gave me an odd look and said all I was going to ask was if you have a light for my pipe. I got angry and embarrassed and said what do I look like some kind of general store that carries’s stuff for your convenience. Everyone stopped what they were doing and was staring at me.
Karen then grabbed my arm and pushed me out of the box car onto the next and then apologized for my poor behavior saying I was just grumpy from the long trip. At this point my attitude was pretty sour for the next few days. But I overheard that we were about a day’s trip from our destination I started to lighten up some looking at the positives that I wouldn’t be stuck on this train anymore.
During lunch the next day me and Karen were sitting and looking out the window and noticed some old houses and structures which seemed abandoned as we were passing by. One of the train attendants was walking past and I asked what town are these houses apart of and he said “Stillwater Town we will be passing the train station soon”. I said don’t we stop at the train station their? And he said no it’s a haunted town no one has had any want to travel there for many years. I said haunted this really brightened my mood and got my curiosity I asked what happened there and he said he didn’t know anymore then that its haunted but he said that when we hit California the librarian would know more about it.
I continued to watch as we past the town and the train station which looked pretty old and run down as I watched from the window I felt like something was calling out to my mind from the location. I asked Karen if she felt anything weird while looking at the town. She said no that maybe the onions on my sandwich were getting to me. I told her we have to go to that town that it was perfect for a story. Karen was unsure about that idea and kept saying we need to go to my aunts. But I was hoping that after we would find a way to go there.
Finally during that night we rolled into the California train station and of course no one came to pick us up so we had to take a carriage to my aunt’s residence. It took us a while to get there and it was pretty late by the time we reached and we knocked and I could hear the house maid having a fit about having to get up at such a late hour she was hopping mad about it and when she learned my father had sent me and Karen to come take care of our aunt she was like there is nothing wrong with your aunt now she’s fine you wasted your time coming here but come in and you can stay the night. She brought us upstairs to the guest room with our bags and there was only the one guest room with a bed so we both ended up having to sleep together on this small bed tight and cramped.
During the morning which I doubt I slept all that much feeling like a crammed sardine we where friendlily greeted by my aunt who was surprised to see me and Karen she said that she just had a cold and there was no need for us to rush out to check on her. I told her that my father forced us and she said your father can be so stubborn at times.
She asked if I had any other plans so I told her I wanted to go to the library and find out about Stillwater Town for a book I plan on writing. This was the first time she had heard about me writing books in which I told her some of the book titles I made and she snapped her fingers and said I knew it I saw a book which reminded me of a story you used to tell awhile ago about our home town in New York about a haunted hotel and I said that was my very first book published. She was quite amazed knowing how big of a seller it is in California she said I was pretty famous. She told me where I could find the library and I got a carriage and went to head out Karen said wait I’m coming too and got dressed and joined me.
When we got to the library it was a much larger building then the small library’s at home and they had a massive amount of books inside it seemed to be very empty but all the way in the back there was an old man on a ladder placing some books on a top shelf. I asked him if he could help us and he came down from the ladder and asked what we needed. I told him about the train attendant and how he said you would know about Stillwater Town and what happened. He seemed shocked that anyone would want to know about the town.
He first warned us that many people who have tried to go there have gone missing before volunteering any information at first. I said I was still very interested in hearing about it and told him that I’m a writer of books. He said in the early 1700’s it was a big and upcoming town because of gold which was found in a local mine area but he said as the town grew so did the crime with it. He said there were a lot of violent people who would rush into town to rob and steal from the town’s people and eventually a stranger rolled in one who said he was going to clean up the town. Everyone was very happy about it and as time went on it seemed like he was a hero who was sent to save the town.
Unfortunately that wasn’t going to last some of the local criminals got together and set a trap for the town hero when they captured him they beat him dragging him along by horse back through the desert then before he died they hung him in the town for all the towns people to see. After that they went partying and wreaking the town. During the morning some of the town’s people noticed that the place where the hero was hung his body was missing but the blood which had been all over the rope was still there so they knew it wasn’t a dream and that he got hung.
As the day’s went by people were noticing certain people in the town ending up dead but the strange thing was anyone who was walking in the town claimed they saw their friend hanging in the place of the hero just before the person was killed. It seemed as though it was some kind of curse and eventually no one wanted to live there fearing that they would be the next person to be killed. I was amazed at the story the librarian told us and fascinated. I knew this would make a wonderful book but I still wanted to go there and experience it for myself and get a real feel for some of what I planned to write. From the library we went over and had lunch at a small shop we were sitting outside enjoying the fine temperature and I said to Karen we have to go and Karen was like go where? I told her I wanted to go to the Stillwater Town and she was like are you crazy you heard what the librarian said it’s cursed an evil town.
I said to Karen the story needs to be written and I wanted to put us in the storyline. A man from another table heard us talking and came over and said I heard something about a book and he asked if I was a writer I told him that I was the new writer who wrote the story about the haunted hotel in New York and his eyes lit up and he said I was just reading that book. He asked if I could sign the cover of his book for him and was amazed that I was so far from my home.
He was curious about what I was talking to Karen about so I told him my plans of going to Stillwater Town to write a book. He was like that is a brilliant idea! And asked if he could come along and be a character in my book and I liked that idea I said that was a perfect idea. He said that he could even talk to some friends and get us a group of people to make it interesting. I told him it would be great if he could assist in the project.
Karen said you’re all crazy and I said she could stay at my aunts if she wanted and she said I need to be with you to supervise to make sure you don’t do anything stupid. And I said great it’s settled when do we set out and the man said we should go over to his place and gather some people together. So we went with him over to his house it was a glorious Victorian house with a stylish design. He sat us down in the dining area of the house and told us to wait while he gathered everyone. In the mean time I just looked around at the surrounding pointing out interesting artwork and expensive looking sculptures that lined the walls of the Victorian.
With a short time people started to pour into the house talking and all excited everyone wanting to shake my hand and girls wanting to hug me and the main came back and stood at the head of the table next to me and said today friends I have a real treat for you we have the famous writer Christine with us and she’s planning on making a new book based off the Stillwater Town to the east of here. And everyone seemed surprised and excited about it. He said that anyone who goes will get the chance to be in my book and then he let me talk.
I stood up and introduced myself again saying I’m Christine and I love writing and bringing enjoyment to my readers and I told them about my idea’s for the book and some of the story which I had heard from the librarian in the words of how I planned to make the book and after I was finished everyone started clapping for me saying it was a brilliant book idea and many of them wanted to be a part of it but some were also scared and didn’t want to take the risk.
After all was said and done we had about ten people who planned on joining us for this adventure the man who had organized it whose name was Richard, Karen, Billy, Jane, Annie, Timothy, Jon, Kari, Bob, and myself. Richard suggested that we ask the major if he would have the train make a special stop to the town of Stillwater for us and we went over to the major’s office to get permission for it.
When we got there the major was giving us a hard time saying he wasn’t going to be responsible about anything that happened to us and he didn’t want to give permission for us to go and I said but my book talks about the kindhearted major whose love for people allows us to take a trip using the train. And after a few moments he was also fine with letting us especially knowing he was going to be mentioned in a famous book.
We decided to set out for the next morning we planned and gathered supplies and things we would need to stay there in the town. I started to write the beginning of the book that night giving all the maximum details which I had gathered from the librarian and introductions to each of our fellow adventurers. Then I lay in bed trying to sleep and sleep never came during the morning I was up and ready to go before Karen had even woken up and she said that this trip was going to be a nightmare. I pushed her out of bed and rushed her to get ready and out the door. Richard picked both of us up and brought us to the train station were the rest of the group were waiting excitedly.
The train conductor told us that he thought we were out of our minds for wanting to go to Stillwater Town but he could not do anything to stop us but advise us not to go since we were set on wanting to go even Karen tried to talk us out of it but we really wanted to go. The train got underway shortly after we all got on and had our supplies and everything ready. The train attendant told us that they would drop us off at the station and come back within a week to pick us back up if we were still alive he said.

Updates
So I have not been around lately. I was spending some time in california checking on a friend of mine who has cancer and is not doing very well. It was pretty upsetting she did not reconize me at all and we have been friends for a very long time. I did manage to meet many of her other friends who I never met before it was a pretty large gathering of people who came to visit her. And later some of her friends invited me out to dinner and we had a really great time so that ended up lightening the sad parts of it some. I realize I have been slacking on stories I have one which is not finished yet and I will be publishing it soon. I was also invited to play tera online with a friend recently but my computer cannot run anything but ragnarok online and I just do not have time for anything else. But otherwise I got a job recently too and other then being extremely busy everything is going pretty well. I will try to update more often.
