The Frightening Smile

The following was written when I was in 8th grade.  Found it while going through some old papers. 

When the day was dark and the night was light a grueling fight was put up at night.  A murder was committed in the light night sky but the murderer got off with a frightening smile.  It was all that could be done, bringing him to trial.  But it wasn't enough, for the frightening smile.  He put the jury to horror and the people to their homes.  They locked their doors and turned off the lights all because of the killer with the frightening smile.  he walked out of the courtroom after being let off and stared down the reporters with that frightening smile.  They stepped back and shook their heads letting him pass.  No questions were asked.  It was the frightening smile.  He walked to his home across the city of Bath scattering the people with his smirk and his laugh.  He smirked and he laughed all the way to his home as none did challenge him, they just ran from his path.  He reached his home as the day was ending.  He found his home and he found a man.  The man stood at his door and looked him the eye.  The smirk did nothing and the laugh failed with a cry.  The man was angry and the man had pride.  The killer ran with all the people's fear inside.  He ran with their fear and he ran with no heart.  He ran and he ran but there was little he could do for the man behind him ran with determination and pride.  He was caught.  He was stabbed and he died with fear for the smile that had aided him was the fuel for his demise.
