MacTavish's Creature

 

    "I've got you now, laddies," said Dr MacTavish. "What are you two doing?"

"My mum will call the police," yelled Alex, hoping someone would hear.

    

    One day, a new neighbor moves to next to Alex's house. His name is MacTavish and he is a doctor. A lot of weird things are come out of his van, for example, a huge set of antlers, a skeleton, and a table shaped like an elephant. Alex is watching Mactavish carrying something odd from Alex's yard. He is really interested in what he is watching. The driver brings a large packing box down the ramp. He looks really nervous. Then, he slipped when he stepped off the ramp. At the moment, a loud groan echoes across the street. Alex is surprised and looks up. He expects to see an animal in pain. However, there was nothing there except the van driver, Dr. MacTavish, and the box. Alex thinks that Dr. MacTavish is really weird and he had some animal trapped in a box. That night, a loud wailing noise wakes Alex. He lay in bed too scared to move. He listens as a creature howls into the night. Alex makes his mind to find what the creature is.
