The+Seven+Chairs


 * THE SEVEN CHAIRS ** **The fifth one ended up in France. **

Once there was a lady named Alice. She was a nun. She had two good friends named Marco and Sally. They were priests. Alice was a very sweet girl. She was also a follower. She would do whatever her friends told her to do. Marco and Sally were tired of her doing what other people said, because one day she could get hurt. So one day, they came up with a plan.

They took her to the oldest church in town. People say it's haunted. They went inside. "That's strange, I thought there were 100 chairs here," said Marco, "there's only seven now." They made Alice sit in one of the chairs. They were going to make her answer some questions, but something weird happened once Alice sat in a chair. It started flying up toward the ceiling. The roof opened up and Alice started flying up, up, and away. Marco and Sally screamed. They jumped and jumped in the air trying to catch her. Nothing worked.

Alice was out of sight. Then they heard screaming. Alice was falling out of the sky. Then she landed on the ground right in front of Marco and Sally. Her body was not moving. For years and years, Marco and Sally were filled with sorrow. Sally grew sick and died. Marco was even sadder now, so he killed himself. He was with his friends now in the stars.

One dark, gloomy evening a priest and a young student stood in a very big church. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a nun came floating through a window. She was sitting on a very peculiar-looking chair - כסאות מנהלים. Then, they heard a whole chorus of nuns singing, but there was only one there! They were very scared at first, but then half of the room turned dark and the other half stayed light. Now they weren't just scared anymore, they were terrified!

Suddenly, six more chairs come out of nowhere! The priest and the student saw what the meaning of this was. The young student said, "Remember the unfinished stories of Harris Burdick?" The priest said, "Oh, yes! I remember those very well!" Then the ghost finally came out and said, "You got what you deserved!" The student and the priest didn't know what to do, so they fainted from fright.

When they finally woke up, a police car was there and asked what was going on. They kept saying, "The ghost is coming back, the ghost is coming back!" The police put them in a mental home for the rest of their lives and the young student never became a priest! (Written by Sarah G.)
