Last night I was walking home next to the river Thames, when something strange
happened to me. It was late at night and I’d had a long and difficult day at work. There was
a large full moon in the sky and
everything was quiet. I was tired and
lonely and I’d just had a few pints of
beer in my local pub, so I decided to
stop by the riverside and look at the
moon for a while. I sat on some
steps very close to the water’s edge
and looked up at the big yellow moon and wondered if it really was made of cheese. I felt
very tired so I closed my eyes and after a few minutes, I fell asleep.
When I woke up, the moon had moved behind a cloud and it was very dark and cold. The
wind was blowing and an owl hooted in a tree above me. I rubbed my eyes and started to
get up, when suddenly I heard a splash. I
looked down at the water and saw something.
Something terrible and frightening, and unlike
anything I’d ever seen before. Something was
coming out of the water and moving towards
me. Something green and strange and ugly. It
was a long green arm and it was stretching out
from the water to grab my leg. I was so scared that I couldn’t move. I’d never been so
scared in my whole life. The cold green hand was moving closer and closer when
suddenly there was a blue flash and a strange noise from behind me. Someone jumped
onto the stairs next to me. He was wearing strange clothes and he had a crazy look in his
eyes. He shouted “Get Back!” and pointed something at the monster in the water. There
was a bright flash and the monster hissed and disappeared.
I couldn’t believe what had happened. What on earth were Moon Goblins, and who was
the mysterious Doctor? And why had he saved me? I was determined to find the answers
to these strange questions. I stood up, looked at the moon and quickly walked home.
