                   Short Story  

By Rupert Pemberton

 It was a hot summers day and Dave and Steven were planning to go back to Steven’s house after school to stay the night and go out on Saturday. Everyone in the whole school was extremely excited because it was the last day of term and were all planning their summer holiday. School was going to end at noon and there were no lessons, they just needed to collect their reports and see who had won prizes for their efforts.

       

When school ended Dave and Steven left and walked to the train station to get back to his house. Steven said, “ How much money have you got?” Dave said “ About twenty pounds.” Steven said, “ Should be enough.” They walked a bit faster otherwise they would miss the train. There were people from their school going by train. Dave said quickly “ I just need a can of coke.” Steven said, “ Don’t be long.” Dave went into the newsagent and the man at the counter didn’t take his eyes off him. Dave bought the coke and let the man keep the change. When he came Steven shouted “ Hurry we’re going to miss it.” They ran and just got on the train. They saw some of their friends from sitting about 5 metres away and walked over to sit with them. Steven said “ Hi you lot. Where are you going?” James said, “ We’re going to the cinema.” They both sat down. No one said anything for the rest of the journey. They both go off when it was their stop. Started to walk back to Steven’s house. Dave said while walking “ Have you got any good games for your playstation 2.” Steven said “ Yeah I’ve got loads.”

Dave said, “ So what are we going to be doing?” Steven said, “ We’re going to this huge abandoned metal institution. But we’re going to have to take my BB gun because there can be dangerous people there like gypsies.

       

When they got to Steven’s house and were about to put in the key when his Mum opened it. Mum said “ Hi boys there’s some food on the table. Dave just put your shoes over there. So what are you going to be doing for the rest of the day? Steven said with chocolate in his mouth “ We will going out in a while.” They went upstairs to Steven’s room. Steven pulled out his collection of BB guns. Steven said with pride “ Which one do you want?” Dave picked a fully automatic machine gun. Dave said “ This one. What happens if you get shot with one these? Steven said, “ It just stings and give you a bruise. Steven picked up two semi automatic pistols. He aimed it at Dave. Then pulled the trigger it click and nothing came out. Dave said in an shocked way “ Why did you do that, you could shot me and given a bruise or hit me in the eye?” Steven in a relaxed way “ I don’t keep them loaded.” He switched on his TV and started his playstation 2. They started to play a racing game. They played for about thirty minutes and got ready to go out. Dave said “ So what’s it like at the abandoned metal institution?” Steven said, “ Well it is huge and most of the windows have been smash and it’s covered in graffiti. So come on lets go.” They went down stairs in a hurry. Steven’s Mum was on the phone. Steven said to his Mum “ I’ll be home in a while and call me on my mobile if there are any problems.”

They started walking down the road. “ Steven said “ Don’t worry it’s not far, it’s only about twenty minute walk. But keep the gun covered.” Dave said, “ How much ammo have you got for the guns?” Steven said “ About 1000 in a bag in my pocket.” They passed a church and there was a tramp sleeping in graveyard with bottle of beer in his hand. They both stared at him while they were walking. When they got to the wall that surrounds the metal institute Steven climb it with no problem. Dave ...
