FOUR GIRLS AND FREY

It was said in the little town of Merysville that if you were to place thirteen candles around your bed and chant the name `Frey' thirteen times without stopping, he would appear from under the berth and exterminate you for disturbing him in his deep sleep, which, we define as death. ``That's just stupid'' Adrianna had said when she heard the legend from Frida in the sleepover they were having. ``Isn't it Gilberta?'' she asked, turning to her best friend. ``Of course!'' she replied.`If you believe that it is not true then why don't we try it?'' asked Hilda. ``No, it'll just be a waste of our time'' replied Adrianna.

``Aww.. are you scared?'' asked Frida in a mock baby voice. ``No I'm not. I just think this is not worth our time and where the heck are we going to get thirteen candles?'' replied Adrianna. ``Oh, I have them right here'' said Frida. ``I thought we were going to try this out so I begged mom to buy them for me until she finally agreed'' ``Oh well'' said Adrianna. ``If you girls insist'' And then they surrounded the bed with thirteen candles and a bright red illumine essence consumed the room after Frida switched the lights off. ``Let's do it'' said Gilberta and they started saying the word `Frey'. Frida hesitated saying the word `Frey' the thirteenth time and so nothing happened. ``See!'' said Adrianna happily.

``Nothing happened'' ``That's because I didn't say `Frey' unbrokenly'' said Frida. `` Alright then, if you insist let's try it one more time but I'm telling you it isn't true'' said Adrianna and they started chanting the name again. Nothing remarkable happened on the first twelve warbles but on the thirteenth one, the candles were blown out as if by sorcery. ``What is happening?'' shrieked Adrianna. ``I told you something would happen!'' said Frida, shaking her head. And then the girls could just make out a fifth figure in the drab room. ``Who is that?'' squealed Gilbert. ``My name'' said the figure. ``Is Frey'' And then everything went black...
