Creative Writing Essay

It all started with a sunny day. I decided to call up my friends so we could all go to Sunnyside Beach only because none of us have been there before. I got ready and left the house to go get my friends. I made sure I had everything because I did not want to drive all the way back if I had forgotten something. I pull up to their house and they are all standing outside ready to go. It was all worth it. The views were as beautiful as the heavenly skies. 

The aroma of seaweed circled the beach and thats how we knew we were finally there. We saw that nobody was there. All my friends said that we must just be early and I agreed. In my head I said “We are just early don’t worry” I confirmed it in my head so I wouldn’t overreact. We got ready to jump in but I still had that thought in mind. As we were all running to the water, I was the last one to jump in as I still had the feeling that something wasn’t right. My friends start laughing and calling me names trying to get me into the water. I got sick of the names so I quickly jumped in and forgot what I was thinking. We stayed in the water for a little while then decided to go have something to eat. Everyone gets out of the water and then realises that it's still just them at the beach. 

As we sat there eating, listening to music and having a good time, It didn’t feel real. My friends started saying that I'm just overreacting too much and need to chill out for a bit. They all got back into the water but I stayed behind just to see what was really happening. I started walking down the beach and saw that there was still no one there. I started getting worried so I ran back to my friends, I saw that they were not there. I get scared knowing that I'm completely alone. I tried to find them but I couldn’t see anyone. 

I quickly ran back to where our stuff was then searched for my phone to call someone, but there was no service. All my friends were still there so I wasn’t sure if they left or not. I had one more look before I left, I grabbed everything I could and went back to my car. I tried all their phones to see if I could call someone to help but nothing would work. I didn’t want to leave them, because I don’t know who took them or where they went. It starts getting darker, and darker and I get more scared knowing that something or someone might have taken them away forever. I felt like this whole trip was my fault, I didn’t mean for any of this to happen but it did. I sat in the car clueless not knowing what to do.

 I heard a loud “BANG” but it really scared me but I had to go see what it was. I started running back to the beach but then something caught my eye. I turned around and saw all of my friends hanging from the tree. There was blood on there bodys saying “YOUR NEXT”
