Creepy Night

     It was a dark night. Two kids, Matt and Sam, were sleeping in a tent outside. It seemed like just a regular night, but as you know it wasn't. They were tired that night so they started out trying to get to sleep, but they heard something tapping on the tent. They ignored it because it was just a small tapping but it began to get harder. They started freaking out but tried to stay quiet. The tent started shaking so they went under their covers, hoping it would stop, but it didn't. It grew more violent, so they looked out of their blankets and saw a very tall figure. They looked around for things to save themselves with and found a pocket knife. With the pocket knife, Sam started stabbing at the figure through the tent. The shaking stopped, but he kept stabbing until his knife just dissapeared out of his hands. They looked at each other, very scared, and they ran out of the tent! They ran for hellp so Sam and Matt just kept running and didn't look back. Matt and to stop and take a breath and looked around for Sam. He noticed Sam wasn't there. Then far away he saw a werewolf running at him. Matt tried to climb a tree but it caught him. What happened to him after that we will never know, because nobody has seen him since!

                In the end of the novel, nothing could be changed. Once Lennie killed Curley’s wife what could they change? There was really no other choice than for George to kill Lennie  or else a stranger would. I basically know that George hated it, but had no other way. I time that I felt powerless was probably when I knew I was going to get a bad grade on my report card. The only thing I could do was sit there and wait to get in trouble. I was truly powerless. It was frustrating to me that I couldn’t get a chance to get a better grade or just do better in the class. I should of worked harder during the year though. That is a situation that I felt powerless!
