Mason's Mystery The silent bell rung and I leapt out of my bed just before realising that this wasn't my bed. There was a pile of boxes and envelopes next to me. A beeping sound came from the speaker which was located at the corner of the room and then the door swung open. I could hear footsteps silently walking down the corridor. They got louder and louder until a shadow stood at the door blocking the only light that was getting into my cell. He reached into his pockets and took out a gun and crept towards me. He lifted the gun aiming to hit me. I had nothing to protect myself with and his finger was getting dangerously close to the trigger. Then I heard the gun shot... It all started when the doorbell rang and without anyone going near the door it opened. And as it did so the lights went off. I heard a scream. Then 2 shots followed by 2 thuds. I sneaked behind the sofa and then tried to see if I could spot anyone but before I had a chance to I heard a bell ring and I leapt out of a bed. Not my bed... I heard a scream. I thought it was mine but it wasn't. The man put the gun back into his pocket and left closing the door and locking it tightly. I looked at the bunch of letters and parcels. They intrigued me. I had nothing to open the parcels with but I could rip open the envelopes with my bare hands. There was 2 envelopes and 2 parcels. I opened the first one nearly ripping the letter inside. It was from dad. -Mason, I want you to know that everything's going to be alright. I know your probably wondering what's going on but I'm afraid that's something that you need to figure out yourself. I've left a gift for you in the parcel. Love from Your Dad Jamie- I wiped away the tears from my eyes and that's when I realised I was as filthy as a pig. The next envelope must be from mum. I couldn't wait to open it and see what she said. I do love my dad but my mum goes for work trips and I hardly ever get to see her. That's why I was so excited to see what SHE had written about ME. I unfolded the letter and closed my eyes. I counted to 3 and opened them. - Welcome to Grimesgate prison. Don't even think about escaping we have got lookouts everywhere. You have received a sandwich and a juice box in one of the parcels you have received. This prison is for children whose parents have been very NAUGHTY and have gone to JAIL for the rest of their lives. Have fun kiddo LOVE from Your Warden Thomas Linsendguard- My parents couldn't of done anything wrong. I wanted to figure out what those 2 gun shots were and what wee those 2 thuds I heard seconds after. I started to think that my dad and mum got shot and fell to the ground but then I realised mum was on a work trip. I was so stupid to think that that letter was from mum! But if dad got shot twice and fell who fell next? The door opened
