35 - a Shocker On Shock Street
“I took one last glance at their tattered, shredded clothing, at their blackened eye sockets, their toothless, grinning mouths.
And then I started to run.
Marty and I both ran without saying a word. Side by side, we darted across the tall grass between the rows of crooked tombstones.

Marty reached the wooden gate first. He was running so hard, he banged into the fence. He let ou...t a cry—then slipped through the gate onto Shock Street.
I could hear moans and groans and eerie calls of the disgusting green people behind me. But I didn’t look back. I dove for the gate. Squeezed through. Then I shoved it shut behind me.

“Don’t stop!” Marty cried frantically. “Erin—keep going!”
I took a deep breath and followed him down the street.MoreLess
