The door of the dusty overgrown house creaks open. Tim looks in. An old wrinkled face looks up from her rocking chair “What a nice day it is, look at the birds chirping” says the old lady. Tim turns around then he hears a noise that sounds like bones cluttering to the floor.
“What was that?” asked Tim
“Just the mice in the cellar. Could you be a deary and go down to the cellar and get my medicine?” she asks
“Sure”
The last thing Tim hears as he nervously heads down the stairs is a sneaky cackle from above.
Great job Rosie. I like how you have used speech marks and left us wondering at the end. Who could have made the cackle sound?
