“No! I’m not getting on that tall, standing giant.” I hear kids say whenever they walk past me. Then what’s the point of to Six Flags, I ask myself? I overheard two girls, Brennae and Ashley talking. “You did say you would get on one thing Ashley... Please?” Brennae asked. “Ok, I will Brennae, just ONE!” Ashley screamed. I knew it was time to get my terror on.

Then both of them walked up the steps to me. The nervous girl, Ashley, her stomach felt like a bag of butterflies! She was scared out of her mind. She complained about her legs were meat being tenderized, by the way her legs were hurting climbing up 1,000 stairs. Yea, whatever she was just scared. She was even acting crazy, Ashley was saying the stairs were talking to her, with the loud scream of creeeeeeaaaak they made every time she stepped on them. But what really freaked Ashley out was the scream of my victims and she thought about backing out. She felt the wind of my speed brush past her, freezing her in her tracks, second guessing herself. Ashley watched as my victims sat in the terrible trap of me, be held down, and go so fast! Now, it’s her and her friends turn to go. Before the scared one got on, she paused, and I saw her thinking, and she thought about the first time someone tried to make her get on and she cried her eyes out! Ahh, yes. I remember like it was yesterday. Ashley also thought if she should run out and give up. She looked at her friend, sitting down, with an empty seat next to her, waiting on her to sit down. I saw tears well up in Ashley’s and I laughed uncontrollably as she made her way over to her friend, Brennae, and she sat next to her.She sat that one tear drop as she tasted the saltiness of her body fluids falling from her eyes.I saw Ashleys thinking cloud pop up again and I saw she was having second thoughts. “Should I leave?” “What if my seat belt isn’t strapped tight?” “What is I fall?” “What if this Final Destination?” “Lighten up!” her friend, Brennae, said. She tries and lighten, but notices she’s a river! Ashley’s sweating and tears are streaming down her face. My minions came to Brennae and Ashley’s car and looks at Ashley in tears, and asks “Are you sure you want to go?” Her friend, Brennae, rudely answered, “YES!” My minions proudly did as Brennae said with evil smiles, strapped them down tightly! Now, Ashley had no way out , because they were already moving!

They left the preparation place, already in my trap, going up the hill of death, that takes them 100 years, a lifetime. Ashley hurried and wiped her tears , as her friend Brennae looks at her and tells her to put her arms up. As she looks up from Brennae, she saw they were at the top of this mountain, and they were getting ready to go downhill. The banging of Brennae and Ashley’s car stopped chugging as they reached the turning point to shoot off! Ashley quickly prayed before she lost her life, before she fell thousands of feet of feet from the air. All you heard were my poor passengers in the front screaming. But... raising their arms? Ashley and I were both confused. “Do they think this is fun?”I ask myself. Ashley also thought, “Are these crazy people trying to kill themselves?” Before Ashley could catch herself, they darted off! The car drops and Ashley is in terror, screaming, and she was sure she was about to die. The heavens were calling her, she knew they were! Her stomach dropped and it tickled, so she laughed. I didn’t appreciate that because Ashley was supposed to be scared. I was really confused! I guess Ashley sort of, liked it? Now, the turns were next, pushing her and jerking Ashley every which way. “I don’t want it to end, I want to go again!” Ashley whined to Brennae. Also asking her, “Why do we have to get off?” Brennae chuckled and said, “Told you it was going to be fun, but you wanted to cry like a little baby!” Ashley talked to her friend in shame and asked, “Well... Can we get on others?” I was angry, in disappointment! I can’t believe she liked it!
