This is the first chapter of Penelope. Don't read it if you don't like the topic and all the jazz, Kay? But anyways I am also writing two other stories in the Twilight category. I hope this story turns out as well as my others. R&R
Oh and 'I don't own Camp Rock or the characters, the only things I own are Penelope, Jeremy, their story and the plot of the story, of course for the plot I should say my cousin owns it, she was the one who told me in the first place. :P
Title- Penelope
Author- taylorxxoo2
Summary- Michie, Ella and Tess are at Camp Rock and a ghost story is shared. It's fake, isn't it? Read to see who survives and who doesn't. R&R. Rated T for content.
Chapter One- You think we should believe that?
"Ella, Tess. Have you ever heard the story of Penelope?" Michie asked as the three girls all got into bed and turned off the light. It was all of the girls first day at Camp Rock, the summer camp for talented children.
"No. Oh your not 'gonna tell a story are you?" Ella pleaded, she really didn't like listening to stories, it was hard for her to keep up. She would be what you call a "dumb" blonde but she wasn't blonde, that was Tess.
"It's not just a story," Michie started, lowering her voice to a whisper, "it's a true tale about this lake."
"It isn't true, nothing entertaining has ever happened at this lake except Camp Rock." Tess rolled her eyes, she was not the superstitious type of girl, she was raised that way.
"No, about fifteen years ago there was a camp for the unique, poor children, it was called George Pearl's Children. It was a very cheap camp, some of the children had to sleep in tents." Michie didn't say the story in a way that seemed like she was making it up on the spot, she seemed to know the story well.
"Wait, did you say George Pearl? My mom said he was like the best singer until he turned old. And he was successful too. Help kids dreams come true." Ella said thinking really hard. If George Pearl was true would Michie's story be too?
"Yes by allowing them to come to the camp. Well the story starts off with a girl named Penelope and her twin brother going to the camp," Michie paused, asking permission to continue, Ella and Tess nodded. "Since Penelope and Jeremy, her twin, didn't pay a cent to go to the camp they had to share a tent. Jeremy didn't mind but Penelope did.
"Late at night, when Penelope thought Jeremy was fast asleep, she sneaked off, hoping to get a small swim in. Jeremy saw Penelope sneak off and followed in her shadows, but she was walking very fast and Jeremy soon fell behind. He got upset and decided to walk back to the tent and get some shuteye. He looked around and tried to find which way to go but he wasn't sure. He had some how ended up in a forest and couldn't remember which way to go. He decided to go a random direction but of course it was the wrong way.
"Jeremy started to freak out when he knew he was really lost. He was deep in the forest and couldn't even see the stars. The next thing he knew, a mans hand was rested on his shoulder and he looked his killer in the eye. That was the last glimpse of earth he got from alive eyes. He let out a blood curdling scream." Michie paused for a minute to catch her breath and get a drink of water. Ella and Tess were staring at each other in shock, probably thinking of what was going to happen to Penelope in the story, feeling sorrow for Jeremy.
Michie cleared her throat and started the story again, "Penelope heard Jeremy's scream and jumped out of the warm, night water. She knew it was her brother and knew she would be late when she got to him.
"She slipped on her clothes at a super fast speed and reached into her coat pocket. In it was a pocketknife that she brought everywhere with her, just for occasions like this.
"Penelope ran full speed through the forest to save her brother, or get revenge. Soon the forest broke into a clearing and Penelope caught a look at her brother's murderer. He smirked and pulled out his knife. Penelope knew he would try to get behind her and slit her throat, but she wouldn't let that happen.
"She held her knife high and fought back as the man took swipes at her, missing many hitting more. Soon his knife found it's place and soon blood was poring from her neck." Michie paused once more and started so she could finish the story.
"That's not the end of the story though. The next morning Jeremy and Penelope's bodies were found where the murderer left them. The murderer's body was also found a little bit farther from the teens bodies with a piece of paper taped to his shirt. The paper read,
'I WILL get my revenge. Penelope.'" Tess burst into laughter and Ella soon followed her lead.
"You think we should believe that?" Tess asked between giggled. Michie nodded, her face very stern.
"The story also says that Penelope still hasn't gotten her revenge and never will, because no ones death can help ease the guilt she feels for her brothers death." Michie smiled and then joined in with the laughter. Soon the story was forgotten and replaced with the cuteness scale of the boys at camp; of course Shane, Nate and Jason were at the top. The girls fell asleep soon with dreams of boys instead of the fear they should have fallen asleep with.
Hope you liked it. I like the spookiness of the narrator but that's me. Review if you read this chapter and have something to say 'bout it.
