Mr. Mason's Creepy Ending!

Authors Note: In class, we were told to write an ending that was a prediction based off our knowledge of the story. You should see how I related my ending to the way of the story. The story was kind of creepy and unrealistic, and that is how I made my ending- creepy and unrealistic. This is piece was a fun and creative way, that I could predict what was going to happen next.


When she saw Troy again, he wouldn’t be the same person.

Molly was swaying back and forth in the hallway outside the door, she knew that he was going to be a completely  new person.  When the door creaked open, she said, “Troy! What happened?”
He mumbled, “Nothing. Not a single thing.”
“But, but, I heard a noise. The same exact noise that the whole school heard before Dale had changed,” she quickly stated.
“Eh, nothing happened,” she replied in a sleepy voice.
“Then why do you seem tired like Dale?”
“Can’t a guy just be sleepy? I am just tired, that’s  all.”
“Ok Troy, you listen and listen to me now! You tell me what creepy Mr.Mason did to you, or else,” she said sternly, right before Troy butted in.
“Or else what. I am sleepy. You want the truth?,” he said with a smirk.
“Yes, yes I do,” she said.
“Ok, the truth is, that he dropped a piece of glass on the ground, and it shattered,” he said while yawning.
“That’s it?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, then why are you not being really annoying like you were when you went in?,” she questioned.
“Because I am tired Molly! I am just plain old tired. I told you the truth, and now leave me alone. I am the same person!,” he hissed.
“Okay, sheesh. I was just asking. I am afraid, that you will be different tomorrow at school,” she said worried.
He then stated, “ I am fine. Mr. Mason just did that to scare the school, so you guys won’t get on his nerves. He just was trying to scare you. That’s it.”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes, Molly.’
Molly, just thought and thought. She then thought of all the memories of what Dale used to talk about all the time. Maybe Troy was telling the truth. Maybe, Mr. Mason was just a plain old boring teach with bad breath, who didn’t like annoying kids. Molly knew that Dale always talked about his mom being a makeup artist. Maybe, she just liked to do his makeup for practice. Hmmm she thought. Then seconds later, everything made sense. Then Troy started to talk again,” Do you wanna get some ice cream?”
“Sure,” she replied.
The next day at school, Troy was himself again, and school was normal again. Mr. Mason’s jars was just colored jelly in a jar. And from that day on, Mr. Mason realized, that he did have a student that liked him.

Thank You Ma'am Alternate Ending

Authors Note: In class we read the story "Thank You Ma'am." We then were told to write an alternate ending to the story. This is my take on how I think the story should end. Look for sympathy from Roger to Mrs. Jones.

He barely managed to say “Thank you” before she shut the door. Walking down to steps from her stoop, he thought, “Man, I could do a lot with this money.” He continued to walk down the steps and kept walking until he hit the stop sign at the end of the block.

Knowing that he had no one to go home to, he went to the nearest gas station so go find a cardboard box in the dumpster behind the building. Roger knows lots of tricks and tips, in order to manage himself. Digging through the garbage, he found a large refrigerator box, some year old candy, and a old paper bag with some old outfits in it. He took the stuff and went to the nearest park. Since Roger felt kind of bad, he hoped not to run into Mrs. Jones at the park, since that would be kind of awkward. Later that day, when he finally reached the park, he parked him and his stuff near a big oak tree. Roger sat in the box, and laid down to sleep. He put the money  in the bad with the old clothes, and dreamt about how he should be more thankful.

The next morning when Roger woke up he started to talk to himself, “I feel so bad. I knew I should’ve been more kind. I will feel sorry until I die.” He kept babbling to himself. Roger felt so upset and miserable, that he vowed to himself, that he would take the money back to Mrs. Jones and return it. And with that said, he surely did.
