Four friends, Mickey 8, Fuzz 10 (Mickey's older brother), Meat 8, and Lizzy 11.
Mickey even though the younger brother of Fuzz, he was the cool one he seem to be the leader of there little gang. Fuzz was the bad kid, always getting in real trouble. Meat is the chubby fat kid. And Lizzy always thought she was one of the boys, she had a thing for Fuzz, but Fuzz never liked her that way.
The kids were hated by many of the older neighbor's on the street.
Mr. Worm the next store neighbor of Mickey and Fuzz, would steal there basketballs and other things that went in his yard.
Mr. Poke would throw tennis balls at the kids for running through his yard.
And Mr.Yoully, the worst of all the old men, would always call the cops on the kids for playing in the street or just being loud of front of his house.
One day Fuzz dared Meat to go up on Mr. Yoully's porch and steal his gold lion statue. Mickey trid to talk him out of it, but Meat was just trying to impress the gang. So he slowly started to walk up the house and up the stairs. But what the kids didn't know is that Mr. Yoully was watching them from his window, and already called the police. Meat had just picked up the lion statue when the kids heard the sirins of the cop car. They all took of running, they didn't want to get caght by the cops again. The cops always called them "The Jefferson street gang", and the kids thought that was funny. The kids ran down their street to the end and ran down a hill to the train tracks, where the cops could'nt follow them. They had a special place where noone ever new where they were at.
There was a small pond about half a mile up the tracks, it was behind trees and brush next to the tracks. They always hung out there alot. They called this place "Sawgy Marsh", because the water was thick, black and green.
They were all arguing with each other when they got there, what to do with the statue. So Lizzy grabbed it out of Meat's hands and threw it in the Marsh. After she did, Sawgy Marsh as they called it, started bubbling up. Startled, they all ran back up the tracks and up on there street. They thought the cops would be up there waiting for them, but they just seen an ambulance pulling away from
Mr. Yoully's home. So they all ran up and into Mickey and Fuzz's house and asked there parents there mother what had happened. And she said, "he was choking or something and coughing up some kind of black tar". The kids now stunned, thinking they might have killed Mr. Yoully. Mickey ask if the cops came over here, and she said, "no". The kids sat out on the porch for about an hour, noone saying anything, until Fuzz studders out, "lets try it again so we know it was not us". No one even argued with him, still in shock. Fuzz ran over and grabbed a shovel off Mr. Worm's porch and they all ran back down to Sawgy Marsh. Fuzz held the shovel over his head and all of them looked around at each other. Then he threw it in to the middle. Nothing happened for a couple of minutes, and they were all releived. Just before they got ready to leave, it started. The black pond started bubbling again. They ran back up to the street and saw the ambulance at Mr. Worm's house now.
THEN THEY KNEW............
