Unexpected Noise

Once there was a boy and a girl named claire who lived in the middle of nowhere somewhere in Arizona. He cowboyed while she stayed at home and tended to the house. Well her being by herself and only having a shotgun with one bullet often got scared of strange noises outside. One night while sitting on the couch watching television she heard an unexpected noise on the porch a growling noise. Quickly she jumped up grabbed the frying pan and slowly walked up to the window to look outside......as she got closer the noise got louder. Shaking she gently peeked out the window and to her scare was a giant black bear looking right in on her! Clare screamed and ran to the door to lock it all of the sudden the bear broke through the window. Clare ran to the Kitchen grabbed the shotgun and aimed at the black bear who now was making his way to her, breaking everything in sight. She aimed placed her finger on the trigger......and click it didn't go off Clare looked down at the gun.... duh she thought I got to take it off of safety. So Clare for one more time pulled the trigger and shot the bear right in the heart! The bear backed up threw his paws in the air and tumbled down with a giant earthshaking thud. Relieved Clare thought that she had not only saved her life but now had fresh meat to eat. So that night she cleaned up her prize and froze the meat in the freezer and went to bed. When morning came again Claire heard another noise outside she got up and ran to the door to see who or what it was but this time it was only Jim coming back in from working cattle. Claire grabbed Jim's hand and ran to the freezer to show him her nights catch. Jim laughed and looked at Claire and said " You've been busy haven't you."
