It was a cold-cold day in October and as I was driving down the street when I saw this old lady on the side of the road. I thought what harm could an old lady be? As I went down the road a little further I decided I would turn back around and pick her up. I mean all old lady's are nice aren't they? I strolled down the road and pulled up beside her. You could tell she had some age on her. She had a lite jacket and a blue blouse along with a denim skirt. I thought to myself "She must be freezing!" "Would you like a ride?" I asked she said "Of course I would young lady!" So I got out of the car and opened up the door for her and she said "Bless you my child" "You are very much welcome Ma'ma" I said as I got back in the car I asked "Where would you like to go?" She said "Well my youngest granddaughter is doing a dance recital at Laurelville Elementary school to night if you wouldn't mind taking me?" "Why I wouldn't mind at all!" I said
As we pulled up to the school the woman said "Thank you so very much, I know she would have been so upset if I didn't make it." Then she said"For all your hard work I will give you a piece of candy "Thanks" I said as she handed me a Wintergreen Life Saver mint.
The lady got out and waved me on as I stuck the mint in my mouth...
The next thing I remember was feeling woosy then wreaking my car into a lamp post along the side of the road I woke three days later with a concussion and a broken arm
Now I know how much harm an old lady can actually do.

Six weeks after I got my new car I drove to the movie theater to watch a movie with some of my friends. After the movie I was hungry so I went to B-Dubs for some chicken wings. When I was coming home I saw an old woman that needed a drive. So I picked her up. How much harm can she do? When I was driving to her house she hit me with her cane and knocked me out. Then the old woman hijacks my car and drives me to her house. She brings me into the basement and ties me to a chair. Then the cops find out that the old woman kidnapped me and the cops came to her house and the old woman knocks the cops out and she ties the cops to a chair. Then more cops came and then they caught the old woman and the and the cops and I got saved. A week later I read the newspaper and I see that the old woman escaped from jail. She still has my car keys and she hijacks my car when I am eating a burger at McDonalds. Then when I come home I noticed that my car is missing so I call the cops and they say that they saw my car being driven near the mall. So a taxi brings me to the mall parking lot and I look around for my car. Then the cops call again and say that my car is parked in the zoo parking lot. I go to the zoo by taxi and find my car parked near the snack stand by the zoo. I can't drive my car cause the old lady still has my car keys. So I look around the zoo. I went passed the loins and found the lady eating her ice cream. I went behind her and got her purse. I looked trough the purse and found my keys. I put the purse back and ran to my car. I drove back home and the cops say that she is in a better cell now and she cant escape. I have my car and my keys and no old lady. Now I know to not trust anyone enough to give them a drive unless they are friends. So next time when I pick up a hitchhiker I will make sure that he or she does not have a weapon. And I also need to make sure I can trust them and maybe they will need to pay for a ride in my awesome car. I am like a taxi kinda but I have limited people I can trust for a drive. Everyone has to pay $5 if they want a ride but it is free for friends. I will not allow people that I cant trust like that old lady. Everyone thinks old people are nice and sweet but there is some people out there that are mean and rude. Many other things could of happened to me but the old lady kidnapped me and stole my car but everything is back to normal now, well just for me not the old lady. Just remember that just because some people is old does not mean there nice and you might not wanna trust anyone you do not know. Will you pick up a hitchhiker? This story is for my class, The Reading Workshop

I was driving down the road, with the music on the radio turned way up when I saw her. She was standing on the side of the road, holding up a sign that said: "NEED TO GET HOME TO FAMILY, WILL GIVE $50 IN RETURN FOR A RIDE!" I really needed $50, because it was my sister's 27th birthday, and I was broke, so I pulled over on the side of the road and told her she can have a ride. When I pulled over, I could see her more clearly.
She was an older lady, at least in her late 70's and she had on a long skirt that went down to her toes. She also had a floral print blouse that my grandma has. Then, after she got in my car she started to talk. She had a really weird voice, very high pitched and it was not like a 77 year old lady's voice. I thought it was really strange but I kept on driving. Then, about 5 minutes later, she tells me directions and I find out that it's 15 minutes from Columbus, which is a long way from here.
Once I was down the road it happened. She pulled of her face (it was a mask) and it was really a grown man with dark hair and dark eyes. I stepped on the brakes, and he pulled a gun out of his "purse" and said to me " Drive, or I will shoot." I was crazily scared, but I kept driving. Then he started to ask questions. "Whats your name?" he asked in a commanding tone. "I'm not going to tell you that." I said, panicked. He pressed the barrel of his gun against my scalp. " Your name." he said, roughly. "Rachel" I said, in a quivering voice. " All right, Rachel, take me to Shadesville." Shadesville. Oh no. Shadesville was a town that they say to have ghosts, and mysterious murders. But I kept driving.
Once we got to Shadesville, he made me get out of the car, and he stuck a syringe with greenish looking liquid in it into my arm. Then, when I woke up I was in a room with no windows and peeling paint. I got up, but felt kind of woozy. I gathered my courage and shook off my tiredness and headed for the door. Once I was out of the room, I heard someone's voice. It sounded close to the staircase I had to go up. Great, I thought to myself. What now. Then I saw it. It was a small door (about 2 feet tall) under the stairs. I was going to hide inside it, but I hesitated. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, so I bolted into the room under the stairs.
When my eyes got adjusted to the dark room, what I saw was terrifying. I was in a weapon room. There were guns, blowguns, spears even swords. Then, I saw a beautiful bow with matching arrows. Amazing. I thought. Truly amazing. Then I remembered where I was. I grabbed the bow and arrow and marched out of the room full of weapons. Once I was out of the room, I crept up the stairs and saw a door. It was guarded with two men. One was HUGE. He was about 7 feet tall, and had a sunburn. How unusual, to have a sunburn in April. The man standing next to him was the same man that pretended to be an old woman.
I readied the bow and stuck an arrow on the string. ( I luckily knew how to shoot because I had my own bow.) I aimed my arrow for the sun burnt man's leg. It was a perfect shot. The other man, ran after me. I shot him in the same spot as the sun burnt man. I ran for the door. Once I was out, I knew where I was. While I was "asleep" they moved me to a different location. I was in the neighborhood by my school. I ran. Finally I reached the school, I saw something that startled me. On the schools front doors there was a sign that said CLOSED. How can school be closed? It's only April.
After I saw the sign at the school, I bolted for the police station which was about a mile away. Once I got there, I told a police officer that my name is Rachel Townsend, and that I've been missing for a few days. He said he will check on the missing people reports, so I sat and tried to calm myself. He came back, but he had a shocked expression on his face. "You haven't been missing for two days." He said. " You've been missing for two months."

I was driving down the highway and I saw an old lady standing on the side of the road. I thought to myself what harm could an old lady do and so I asked her where she needed to go and I would take her anywhere she wanted to go and she said take me to Vegas and so later on when we arrived in Vegas she was gone!!!!!I thought where had she gone??? and then so when i went back and retraced my steps I found her on another highway and she was getting into another car and I said wait to the other driver and the other driver and I stopped at another gas station and I said when the old lady has to go to the bathroom you need to drive away she is just playing people.
So later on Dave's car broke down and Dave and I traveled together and they left the old lady stranded in Vegas because she was always playing people. She finally stopped playing people years later though and I new if I ever ran into her again I would stay away or just keep on going until I couldn't see her anymore.
So I went back by the highway and I found her sitting not standing sitting and so I felt really bad so I went by and picked her up and that's the part when it all began again. so picked her up and i took her to Australia and I told her that it would take hours to get there from Ohio and she didn't care she said and I said NO jumping out of the car this time and I didn't hear anything coming from the back so I looked in the back and nothing was there just my gym clothes. She was a crazy old lady.

This story is a project for my language arts class, The Reading Workshop. Its also going to be on the Question Board in the question of the week, What Harm. I came up with this idea all by myself. I really hope you like this story. It took me a while to finish it. So here it is, The Harm Of an Old Lady.
One day I'm driving down the road in my new car. I just got my new car, and I was so excited because it was like a birthday present, even know it's not my birthday. But who cares it was still one of the best days of my life.
So I'm driving down the road to get to my friend's house, his name is Ian, he is one of my best friends, and he is having a birthday party. But on the way I saw a old lady on the side of the road, so I stop to see if she need help. As I stopped to see if she need a ride she got up and came over to my car, I asked "Do you need a ride?". She said "Yes I really need a ride, my car ran out of gas and I have no cell phone with me!". But I was not sure about it so I called my parents to see if they were okay with it.
When I called they said "Were not sure about it, are you sure you'll be okay?". I said "Yes, I'm sure I'll be find, but I got to go, I'll talk to you later, bye.". But I said to myself "What harm could a old lady do?", so I told her to get in the car. She ask how old I was, and I said "I'm sixteen, and I'm Jacob".
A minute later she asked "Can we stop at Walmart?", and I said "Sure". So we stop at Walmart and she said "Do you have any money with you?". I was confused why she would have said that, so I said "Only a little, and it's for gas.". But then she said " Please, I what to buy this toy for my grandson!". So I gave her a little bit of money for her to buy the toy.
After we got out of Walmart we got back into the car. She said "Now lets go home, I'm to tired to do some thing else.". So on the way to here house I looked at the clock and I could not believe my eyes. It was 6:00 PM, Ian party is at 6:15 PM. So I said to my self "I got to make that party!".
So we get to her house at 6:10, we were pretty close to her house when I freaked out over the time. But then she said "That party next door will keep me up from my nap!". I said "What do you mean?", she said "Take a look". So I looked over the fence she had and all of a sudden I was face to face with Ian! I said "Ian, what are you doing here?", he said "Me, what are you doing in my neighbors lawn?". I said back "She was stranded on the side of the road.", then he said "Well I guess you made the party.", then I said I guess so."
So that's the harm a old lady can do. She can make you be late for a party, make you spend your money. Also make you worried that you will not make a party, which she does.

This was a question on the question of the week board. You can see my response at that web sight go check it out and give it a comment.
I was driving down the road and I saw an old lady standing on the side of the road. Why is there an old lady standing on the side of the road? Maybe I should go check to see if she's ok. Hello are you ok? No response. Do you need anything? No response. Ummm ok then I'll be on my way then by. I look in my review mirror. She's gone!? was that just a ghost or what?
Hmmm nah no way. Look's back in review mirror again. She's there again and her eye's are pure white. She's getting closer and fast!? I speed up down the highway looks back not there. What was that thing!? Wait what the, The wheel ise'nt working!? I try to regain control but the wheel wouldn't work next thing you know a black shadowy human like figure apures in the passenger seat. It was the old lady! She looks at me with her pale white eye's with an ear piercing sound she makes I try to regain control of the car one more time and it works. The sound is gone and so is the old lady!? I need to go home and lie down for a bit and think over what just happened.
Next day, This is the same highway I took when I saw that ghost or what ever that thing was. I see an old lady oh no. But this time she wasn't a black shadowy figure anymore and she didn't have white eye's any more she had blue eye's and her skin was white she was wearing a flower dress with pink and yellow flowers on it and a that is made out of straw and sunglasses. I should stop to see if she's fine. I tell her if she needed to go somewhere she responded this time. She said she would like to go to Chicago so she could see a couple museums. So I took her to Chicago I tell her were almost there. She looks very excited to go to these museums.
We finally reached are destination to one of the many museums. I look in the passenger seat and she isn't there any more. What were did she go?! I look around for her and she is know where to be seen. I start heading back home and I saw the same old lady get into a different car with someone else. I say to my self its just my imagination. I stop for some gas and head back home.

One time I was driving down the road in my car when I saw an old lady. I pulled over and asked her what was wrong she told me her car broke down. So I told her I would give her a ride.
I asked her where she was going she said to the store. I felt sorry for her so I told her I would help. She said thanks with the biggest smile I have ever seen. As soon as I got her home she said to come in. So I did but as soon as I walked in she locked the door and said I was going to stay for a while.
I told her that I had to go and that I was late for work. She didn't care she started to walk towards me so I started to back up. She kept coming closer in till I was at the wall. She grabed my arm and draged me to her room. I fell into the room with her still coming towards me. She reached for her purse and got some thing that looked like a sharp piece of glass.
By the time she was half way across the room I stood up and made a run for it. I ran into what looked like a closet and shut the door and held still. I her the old woman walking down the hall. When I though she was gone I opened the door. She was not in the hall way I ran so fast to the door I almost triped I opened the door and made a run for my car. As soon as I called the cops I told myself not to pick up any more hitchhikers.
On my way home I saw another hitchhiker. This time it was a young man. He was walking down the road and had scratches down his arm. So I just kept driving thinking no way am I going through that again.

One day, I was driving down the road. I saw an old lady and I gave her a ride and she told me she didn't need to go anywhere. So I drove her home. She told me to wait here for a minute. So I did. When she had came back out to the car, She gave me a piece of candy and said it was not soap, but it looks like it. She said to me"try it." So I did. So she said to go ahead and go home. So when I was driving down the road, I got this taste in my mouth that tasted like soap and I was still trying to remember what the lady had said. It looks like soap, but it's not. So when I got home, she had called me. I don't know how she got my cell phone number.
When I picked up the phone, she said I had fallen asleep while I was waiting for her. She had said to check out my car. So I did and I took the phone with me. She said to look under the hood or underneath my car because she said it sounded funny when I drove off. So I checked the hood first, and I found a piece of gum holding everything together. That had messed up my car, and I would have to take it to the auto shop. So, the next day, when I was at the auto shop, I saw the old lady. So I don't know why but I went up to talk to her.
She asked me for a ride, and I simply said," no." She said OK. She remembered me from when I had given her a ride last time. I said to her," Look. I don't know what your name is, but I know that when you called me yesterday, you had told me that I had fallen asleep. I know that you did this to my car,and I am going to call the police because I don't know if you knew or not, but the price that I paid was Over $600. I had to get a new motor, and I might have to get a new car because of you." I realized that when I was talking to her, she had a phone with her, and she had called someone. Within a few minutes, I had begun to hear sirens. When the sirens got closer, I realized that it was the police. and they came in and they had asked what was going on.
When they asked me after the lady had told her half of the story, this is what I told the police,"She had given me a piece of candy to eat. When I got home, she called me and I didn't even know how she got my cell phone number. She told me to check in the hood of my car. So I did. I had found a piece of gum holding everything together. So I had to come here today and pay $600 to get a new motor. I might have to get a new car because of her." So the police had arrested the lady for destruction of people's property. They gave me a $100 reward because that lady was wanted for doing crime and destruction of property.
So one day I was driving down the road again and I saw the old lady. She had her granddaughter with her. She gave me a signal to pick her up. I slowed down like I was going to pick her up,but then I realized I had forgotten to lock up my car while I was driving. It probably wasn't a good idea to slow down. She grabbed the car door handle, and she got in the car. As she got in the car, she pulled out a weapon and handed it to her granddaughter,who looked to be about the same age as me, which is about 20. She took the weapon,and she loaded it, and she handed it back to her grandmother. She pointed it at me. She said to me" put your hands up or I will take your car and I will destroy it!"

I was driving down one of my favorite country road when an old lady was walking by. And I thought what harm could an old lady do? I'll be nice and see if she needs anything. I will just have to be on guard for anything.
So I pulled over and said "Do you need a ride?"
She replied very joyfully "Oh yes, yes thank you." So I moved over a opened the door and we were off.
Later in the car I really got to know her. We sang to the radio and she told me stories about her. It felt like I could tell her anything and she would listen and give me advice. The awkwardness became less and less every minute. But I knew that I couldn't stay in the car forever. It was almost four and I needed to get home soon.
So I asked her "Where do you want to be dropped off at?" When I asked her she looked at me with sadness in her eyes and turned.
Then said "Anywhere works."
I felt so bad telling her that. So I started to think of places that could help her. And then it came to me, In town we have a homeless shelter that can give her food, water, fresh clothes and a bed to sleep on. So I turned around and headed in toward town. When we got there I parked and went around to open her door. She got out and looked worried but surprised. I explained everything and that I'm going to help her. She looked at me with fear in her eyes and I went to touch her shoulder to tell her everything is going to be alright when she jolted before I could touch her. At that point her hair that was a wig flew off and showed a strawberry blonde hair with two pink stripes. I was shocked, but then I remember something on the news. She looked like the robber that stole more than 10,000 dollars from people! And she had something of mine.
I jumped on her as she jolted away from me. She had my birthstone ring, it was a gift from my grandparents when I was nine it is very special to me. I ran, and ran until I caught her, I grabbed her shirt and pulled her down to the ground where I signaled people over to call the police. I couldn't believe it, how could a 17 year old be so cruel? I mean I get it sometimes but dressed as an old woman. What if someone else picked her up, what would of happened?
Finally the police came, I had to go back to the station though. When we got there they asked me questions like
"What exactly happened when the subject got in your car," And "When did you catch her, how did you figure it out?"
After three hours of questions I finally got to go home. My parents were waiting outside of the station and when the saw me their faces light up and ran to hug me.
My mom was saying stuff like "Are you okay, did she hurt you?"
And I would reply "I'm okay mom."
That night I went right to bed after dinner when I realized something. My ring, I jumped up and ran to the living room.
I told my family "I have to go back, she has my ring."
When we got there I went right up to the officer the asked me the questions and told him about my ring.
He said "When we locked her up we collected a few things you can look through."
He brought out the box and I rummaged through it and finally at the bottom was my ring.
I picked it up and said "Here it is."
After we got my ring we left for the second time, and went home finally.
The next day I woke up with the smell of pancakes, bacon and eggs. My mom had made breakfast. I got downstairs and saw her laying everything out.
When she saw me she said joyfully "Good morning honey, come get some breakfast."
I went over and got some food. When I went to sit down I turned on the television and took a bite of eggs. They were so good, but that is when I heard it
"Last night a 16 year old stopped the strawberry robber and locked her up for good, more details with Meg Trainer."
I stopped and starred I haven't thought about her since the accident. I didn't even know it was big news. I felt proud and surprised at the same time. But the last word I heard that made me whip up was when she said
"She is a hero." I felt so proud, my mom stared at the screen and smiled
"You're my hero."

This post is from the thereadingworkshop.boards.net/. What harm could a old lady do. I was driving at 9:00 at night in winter and a old lady was running and I asked her if she needed a ride. She said "Yes please " really fast. So I let her in my van and she was taking all of my money. I freaked out and try to pull my money away but she was beating my hand up with her cane. I pulled my hand away, she started to take stuff out of my car and through it out the window. "What are you doing ?!" She said she is trying to get away from the cops. I said "What did you do ?" She said she robbed a bank. She showed me a bag with thousands of dollars in it. I put my hand in the bag and threw some money out. She screamed at me and started punching me. I lost control of the car and ran into a couple of mailboxes. The cops started to shoot at us and the lady pulled out a gun and and shot at the police. I put the brakes on and stop so the cops could catch the old lady. She jumped in my seat and turned on the gas, she was going 90 mph. I tried to stop her but she hit me in the face with her cane. I grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her in the back seat. Things got even worse, there was a helicopter above us and it had a spotlight shining above us. I knew I had to put a stop to it. I put a heavy object on the gas peddle. I used three rolls of duck tape to tape the old lady to the floor of my van, and I knew that she couldn't get up of the floor because she looked 91 years old. I put the brakes on so the cops could get the old lady. The cops got out of the car and the helicopter stopped. The cops said " Get out of the car or we will shot". Me and the old lady got out of the car and the cops took the old lady's bag of money. The cops put the old lady in the cop car, she had 25 year of prison and I don't think she will survive because she is so old. I am glad that the old lady is in jail, I got a couple of scratches. The cops said she has been doing this for year but now they have finally caught her. I finally went home after a long night. When I came home my parents said "How was it like driving for the first time"? I said" I will never drive again". I went to my room to sleep and then my parents came to my room and they saw what happened on the news. I got grounded for 25 weeks and said" This is like being in jail". I will never trust an old lady again.

Well when I went to pick up the hitchhiker (old women) she was standing on the road so I came to a quick stop. I yelled and said,"What in the world are you doing on the road!" The old lady hopped in the car and told me to drive. Next thing I know she steps on my foot that has the gas on it I said," Why did you do that!" She said she was running from the cops! When we get away from the cops I ask her why she was running from them, she said she had stole some million dollar sculpture and that it wasn't a big deal. I said,"NOT, NOT A BIG DEAL!" She finally took her foot off mine and I slam on the breaks. I told her to get out of the car but she didn't listen so I put on a sleepy song and she was out. I called my mom and she told me she would be out for about 4 hours. So I went to the cops and gave the sculpture back I told them the story, they were gonna take her to jail but I talked them in to just letting her pay and the they said fine she needs to pay some money now! I woke her up and I told her to give me $400 she said, "No". Then she saw the cops out of the window and gave me the money and then I took her home. So the old lady told me were she lived so I went there. She came out running with two sacks of money got in my old car and told me to drive. While we were driving down the road I said,"Where is your real place." She told me where it was so I drove there. This time it was her real house and there was a bunch of smoke in the air and a lot of hobos. No wonder she does bad things I thought! I went in her house she took the the money and stashed it. I said," What are you going to do with all that money." She ignored me and went to the bedroom the old lady bent down and hugged a man in the other room. She came out and got some tea and we sat down and she told me how her husband was sick and she didn't have a lot of money to get him surgery, so she told me that's why she was stealing. I asked why she had to steal and not just ask family or a close friend to help pay for the surgery she said I don't have any. We were quiet for a minute she got and said I got to go you want to come. I ask where she was going she didn't tell me. We go out side to our cars and before we get in I wave bye and say good luck she just grinned and drove away. That was the last time I saw her and its been quite a while, I don't know where she went probably to go steal something to get money for her husbands surgery . Oh well she's not in my way! But still in my heart.

This is for my Question of the Week post, What Harm??. Question: I stopped to pick up the hitchhiker despite my parent's warnings. What harm could an old woman do? Read more: thereadingworkshop.boards.net/thread/27/harm#ixzz3EQSQVJTYI was driving down the road and I saw this old lady. I pulled over and she asked me if she could have a ride. So I said "Yes, but I have to check your bags first". She said "Okay, here are my bags". Her bags did not have any guns in it so she got in the car and we drove off. I asked her where she needed to go. She said " I need to go to my house". I asked her "What street she lived on". "Elm Street" she said "I was going down Elm Street and I saw this other old woman so I pulled over and talked to her. She said " I need a ride home". I said 'Okay". I said " Where do you live ". " On Elm Street, 23456 Elm Street" she said . Apparently, that is where the first old woman lives too. So when I got to their house It said " This house belongs to the party pooper" on the door. Well, both of their names were party pooper. Well It didn't take them a long time to figure out that they were twin sisters. Today was their sixty-fifth birthday. I went in the house with them to make sure they didn't fall. They told me to stay until I had to go but by the time I got to their house It was time to go. So I said "Good bye". When I woke up the next morning something was on the news. I figured out that the girls I helped were found dead at the same place I dropped them off. Then the news said "It was right after a 16-year old girl dropped them off. The next day the news was at my house asking me all these questions. So I said" All I did was drop them off where they wanted to go". They started asking me where I was at when they died. I said "I was at my house". They said " Okay". The next day, I was walking out the door and the cops and investigators asked me to take a lie detector test. So I went to take one and they asked me how I found the two old woman. I said "i just found them on the side of the road ". " So, I picked them up ". They said " Okay you are done". A few months later they were still working on the case . They called me at 6:00 in the morning, and said "We have caught the guy who killed the two woman you are free to go ". I was so happy that they caught the guy. Now i just have to wait for the funeral to happen. I got a call today from their kids and said the funeral was today. So I got ready and went down to the church . Guess who the speaker was ? Me! I wasn't even prepared to speak. I just said " Thank you all for being her and a few weeks ago we lost the most two helpful girls. It was a very sad day but that's the circle of life".

One time I was driving down the road in my car when I saw an old lady. I pulled over and asked her what was wrong she told me her car broke down. So I told her I would give her a ride.
I asked her where she was going she said to the store. I felt sorry for her so I told her I would help. She said thanks with the biggest smile I have ever seen. As soon as I got her home she said to come in. So I did but as soon as I walked in she locked the door and said I was going to stay for a while.
I told her that I had to go and that I was late for work. She didn't care she started to walk towards me so I started to back up. She kept coming closer in till I was at the wall. She grabed my arm and draged me to her room. I fell into the room with her still coming towards me. She reached for her purse and got some thing that looked like a sharp piece of glass.
By the time she was half way across the room I stood up and made a run for it. I ran into what looked like a closet and shut the door and held still. I her the old woman walking down the hall. When I though she was gone I opened the door. She was not in the hall way I ran so fast to the door I almost triped I opened the door and made a run for my car. As soon as I called the cops I told myself not to pick up any more hitchhikers.
When I got home all I could think about was that old lady. I turned on the news and saw the old lady the police said that she was famous for playing the old lady trick. I didn't fell so bad after that.
The next day I was driving down the road. I looked out my window and saw a hitchhiker. The hitchhiker had ripped jeans and cuts down his arm. I though about stopping when I though about the old lady. So I kept driving. No way was I going through that again.

I was driving down the road with my friends Ian and Jacob when we saw a hitchhiker. So we stopped an picked her up. We asked her if she was hungry she said yes. Then the old lady started to ask some odd questions like,
''how much money do you boys have?''
we all stopped what we were doing and looked at her a little scared.
Finally we got to a Burger King where we asked her what she wanted she said
''Just a Dr.Pepper.''
So we all went inside got the food and started eating.
''We got here around twelve thirty.''
said Ian
''And this old lady is sill eating.''
said Jacob. Eventually she got done so we started driving away. I dropped Ian and Jacob off but then I got knocked out when the old lady hit me with her cane.
I woke up in a basement tied to a chair. That old lady kidnapped me! I remembered I had my phone so I dialed 911 as fast as I could. Eventually the police showed up was the old lady was a criminal mastermind about to brainwash me.Thankfully the police cuffed her and took her to jail that is when I said to myself ''I am never going to pick up a hitchhiker again.'' Then I drove home and went to bed.
Early the next morning I decided I'll go pick up some breakfast. So I got a sandwich and some coffee but when I drove down the the news was the old lady who kidnapped me got out. So when it was around noon I got invited to my friends Ian's party so I went we hung out played some games but when I left the old lady was driving down the road in my car so I called the cops and when they found her they said ''That is the last straw your going to Alcatraz.'' But the old lady pulled a Shotgun on the cop and shot him. Bravely I jumped and and tried to grab the gun then. All my friends came but they got shot by the old lady then she shot me and I was dead with my friends in heaven.
