《My Short Stories》Chapter 22
Advertisement
I came to visit my grandparents in the countryside for this summer holidays. My parents are visiting their friends in London so I came alone.
My grandparents have a farm with lots of animals so it's fun here. There is a little lake here too. My grandparents were very happy to see me.
I settled in and rested the whole day. The next day, I decided to go look around the farm. I looked at the cows and sheeps for some time. But they weren't that interesting. So I went to look at the horses.
As I was playing with the horses, I saw a horseshoe on one side. I picked it up. It looks old. I will take it as a souvenir.
Later at dinner, I asked my grandpa about it. "Why did you pick it up? Go and put it back." He said.
"Why?" I asked.
"It's a haunted horseshoe. Wherever it goes bad luck follows it. That's why, we never moved it from it's original place." Grandma explained.
I don't believe in this stuff. So I decided to just keep it with myself. It's been two days since I have that. And I have to say that I am starting to believe it.
Teribble things have been happening to me. I decided to go put it back. At night as I was going to sleep I noticed something on my bedside. It's the horseshoe but I put it back. It went like this for a couple of days.
Everytime I put it back it comes back to me. After a month, I left for home. I guess I am left alone by it now. But when I reached home it was on my bedside waiting for me.

The Viadon Project: Extinction
In the year 2080, a group of fanatics believed that the world was going to end. In order to save the human race from extinction, a man named Damian Hunts created a time machine and travelled back in time to the Cretaceous Period alongside his fellow believers. They built a massive city on the continent of Laramidia, and named it Viadon. To keep their future generations from travelling back to a broken future, Damian and the Founding Families destroyed the time machine and created a their own version of history, completely leaving out the fact that they had time travelled, and that the Mass Extinction would happen thousands of years later. Two-thousand years later, the future generations of Viadon have no idea of their ancestors pasts, but things start to unravel quickly as Time Travelers come to warn them of impending doom. Vocabulary:Laramidia: was an island continent that existed during the Late Cretaceous period (99.6-66 Ma), when the Western Interior Seaway split the continent of North America in two.
