East of East St. Louis

I am on a school bus and sitting towards the back. It was snowing out and already there was a couple of inches of snow on the ground. It's also dark out.

A person gets on the bus and is dressed in a shiny, plastic red superhero suit. It has a red and orange theme and a lightning bolt on his chest. He sits behind the bus driver, like an aid or a "bad kid."

He stands up and says "Hello, everyone. I'm going to help you get off the bus. I'll get off first so that you won't sleep."

I don't trust him. I think he's going to hurt me.

I try to get off the bus before he does. I shove him to the side and try to scramble off the bus as fast as I can. He follows right behind me, yelling angry insults.

I unlock the front door and go inside my grandmother's house. The man outside is hammering on the door and yelling "Open up the fucking door!"

I try to find a weapon of some kind and a phone, and the man continues to scream at me.

I woke up before he could get in.

I am ridingon the school bus, talkingto someone about something. Iaccidently get off too soon, and I start to walk home. Along the way I see a tall, abandoned house. I start to feel uneasy, and I continue to walk. I get onto the porch and knockon the front door. The door opens and a dead looking girl/ghost opens it and scoops me into a hug. This girl is not one I am afraid of, it's the other, the teacher ghost.

The little girl ghost takes my hand and shows me around her house - a decaying, condemned mess. This one is harmless - I'm not scared. She gives me a big hug, and then changes from the sweet little girl to a cruel school teacher.

She drags me back onto the porch, telling me she had best never find me in there again. She starts with an ordinar school lesson, which I do good at. I eventually leave, and walk past a large boulder. A fragment of it breaks off and some dust gets in my eye. I pick up a small stone. On it there is a date. 10/8/10.

I continue to walk and finally get home. Thhere is a woman there I don't know, and definetly don't trust. She talks to my mother, and says how she's going to introduce her to her family. Which are aliens. (How I know this, I'm not sure.)

The next day I am on the bus, and we are being taken to someplace on a field trip. A bunch of other, evil aliens have put us on the bus to take us to a murder machine they have made.

I have in my hand the rock with the date, and realize that that's today. I clutch it tightly in my hand.

I realize something is wrong before all hell breaks loose, and try to get to the back of the bus. This was smart, because as soon as I do a conveyer belt starts up, and people are put on it. They seem like they're in a hypnotic state. The conveyer belt leads to a swirling void.

I'm put on the conveyer belt with other people, but we're still able to talk and stuff. People ask me how I knew this was going to happen, what I have in my hand. I'm too scared to talk.

The other aliens I mentioned that were talking to my mother appeared. They did something to shut down the void, and then the conveyer belt. The evil aliens screamed in rage and then vanished.
