We are currently completing an open ended story.  You have been given the beginning, and in your own words you have to finish the story. The story begins:

The hunchbacked figure beckoned to us to follow him, and we entered the castle, our teeth chattering. The hunchback turned and looked at us. He laughed softly and said, “Don’t fall behind. People have gotten lost in these hallways and starved to death before they were found . . . hee-hee-hee!” He led us into a huge room where a whole tree was blazing in the fireplace. I noticed some golden eyes glowing in the far-off corner. “Don’t be worried, my dear,” our host assured me, “that is just Fiona and she’s not one bit hungry. She ate an entire piglet just this morning.” At the sound of the hunchback’s voice, Fiona growled sweetly. “I will be back shortly with some hot chocolate. You warm yourselves by the fire until I return.” He turned sharply, and with narrowed eyes, warned us: “But do not attempt to leave this room, my dears”…

For those of you who were absent today, please familiarize yourself with the beginning of the story and have a good idea on how you wish to end it. It has to be completed in class next week, October 27th.
