The Day of the Shadow King

   It was precisely one year ago when we were walking in the forest telling scary stories. That’s when it happened.
My name is Emily and this is my friend Drake. We love to play in the Fairy tale forest during the night, it’s just more fun.
   “The woods are beautiful tonight.” I said walking beside Drake on a path we’ve both memorized. “ And the night’s warm like a blanket.” Drake whispered back. “ The moon will lead us right to the Shadow King.” I explained in a quiet, yet excited voice. I’m wearing black skinny jeans with black boots , a tucked in, turtleneck shirt with a cloak that has a hood that goes down to my cheekbone. What’s not covered by my hood is covered by my black breathing mask. Drake has a black zip up robe that just barely covers his eyes.
   Crack , something behind us stepped on a stick, so we jumped and turned around to see what it was. A tall black shadow stood looking straight at us. Drake stared into it’s eyes, and I screamed,”Break your eye contact!” Drake continued to stare and was soon tinted with black, and his eyes, red as blood.
   “I” Drake began,”the Shadow King will conquer all tonight. Prepare to fight.” The Shadow King began to recite a bunch of items from fairy tales. “So I need a wand, a poison apple, a strand of golden hair, and a glass slipper. I think I can do this.”
   The next thing I know I’m running toward a crystal castle asking for a wand and a glass slipper. “Please,” I pleaded, “I need the wand to save my friend!””Well, okay then, but only because It’s for a good reason.” said Fairy God Mother handing me the items. “Thanks!” I yelled running out the door, That had been my final stop. I shoved the slipper into my cloak and slipped the wand up my sleeve as I ran toward the pit. Drake was waiting for me darker than ever. I put the things down in front of him and waited. “Your friend is back once more and you will never see the end. said the Shadow King disappointed,”yet.” he said more satisfied. “I will return.” “Wow!” I said. “Wow!” Drake said.
   I will always remember this great adventure with shadows and the Shadow King that I had exactly one year ago when we were walking in the forest.
