The cold water swished over my feet and onto the sand. I glanced around me. It was a boiling hot day in the Bahamas and I was desperate to cool down. I had come on holiday with my three closest friends; Jenny, Zac and Cameron.
'Haylie!!!' Zac shouted, as I turned around and saw my friends waving and holding up ice creams. I ran across the white sand, it was burning beneath my feet.
'We have got you an ice-cream' Zac said, as I waltzed up to their sun loungers. 'Thanks' I replied.
By midday the sun was baking hot and it felt like it was melting our skin.
'I've got an amazing idea!! Why don't we go to the water park!! It's just behind the beach.' Zac said, lighting up.
Jenny peeked up from her Cosmopolitan magazine and looked at them weirdly. 'We are seventeen not ten!'
'Oh come on it'll be a laugh! They have flumes and everything!' Zac pleaded.
'I'll come' Cameron said.
'Well I suppose I'll come too if Haylie goes.'
I had been wary of the water park since the day we arrived here. I could hear the shrilling screams coming from it at the beach ' I didn't want to be the spoilsport and it was probably my imagination.
'Okay, I'll come too!' I said, wishing I hadn't accepted'

The large rusty gates stood before us, the flumes towering above our heads and the sound of horrible screams. As we walked through the gate towards the ticket desk the smell of sweet sickly candyfloss and chlorine wafted up our noses. I didn't know why but something about the water park still freaked me out.

'WOOOH!!!' Jenny screamed as she dived into the pool splashing water all over me as I tried to get used to the coldness of the water.
'We're going on the flumes, are you two coming?' Zac shouted from the edge of the pool.
'No, we'll stay here; we want to see you splash into the pool at the bottom of the flume!' Jenny replied.
'Okay!' he said, as they sprinted off toward the flumes, ignoring the, 'Do not run' sign!

'Urggg where are they?' I said, shivering to death. We had waited an hour and we still hadn't seen them reappear at the bottom of the flume.
'I bet this is a practical joke they've played on us. They're probably at the hotel waiting to see our faces when we get back!' Jenny scowled.
'Anyway lets go back I'm frozen' I said, climbing out the pool.

We emerged from the changing rooms and looked around the pool but there was no sign of them. It was just children and families left in the pool.
'Oh well we'll get them back' I said.
As we walked back through the rusty gates we came through, a man walked right into me ' almost as if I was invisible. 'Hey you, mind where you're going!' I shouted, but he just walked off ignoring me.
'He was rude' Jenny said.

We walked into the apartment to find everything the way it was before we had left. Jenny's makeup scattered all over the bed and Zac's boogie board standing on its side. But there was no sign of Zac and Cameron.
Suddenly something caught my eye; on the bed sat a newspaper.
'I don't remember buying a newspaper' I said.
'Neither do I'
I picked it up and suddenly froze to the spot.
On the front page were some familiar faces; happy faces, our faces.
Zac, Jenny, Cameron and I were in a photograph that we had taken ages ago at the park with a chilling headline, 'Teens killed after flume collapses.'
I glanced at Jenny; suddenly a silence broke over us. I suddenly felt faint, I started to get weaker and I looked back at Jenny. She looked transparent, as if a mist had gone over her.
I went weaker and weaker. Suddenly as I looked at my hands and body, they started to fade.
I took one last look at those happy faces, and we drifted off into nothingness.
Like ghosts'
