Dad came downstairs with two hand guns an a rifle. My dog began to bark constantly. I looked out the window wondering why. As I looked to my left I noticed something was moving fast under the grass in our yard. The dirt was coming up as it was coming towards the house. I yanked my moms shoulder. She bent over an looked outside. Her eyes widened. Dad walked over to the window he grabbed my shoulder an said"Go upstairs to the hall closet. I'm going outside to look around an shoot whatever that is. Nina take Samantha with you to the closet don't come out until I return OK." He opened the door an went outside. Mom took me to the closet. She did not stay with me like dad had said. I was alone an afraid. I grabbed on my dad's jacket that was in the closet. I heard screams an things getting tossed around. I grabbed my ears crying hard. My parents must have died. I didn't know what to do, all I knew was that I would be the next victim or the deadly creature.

Hola Selena! What is this for? This website is for learning Spanish and English, and this doesn't really fit into either of those categories. - 00ffada9, Oct 1, 2014
HCA, ZSelena wants corrections, she has written this in both languagesand needs help. - annierats, Oct 1, 2014
"English" is capitalized in both languages. - rac1, Oct 1, 2014
Selena, is this for proofreading? If so, it needs to go into the "Proofreading" category. - rac1, Oct 1, 2014

This is my attempt, but I am short on time, so good luck!

Dad came downstairs with two handguns and a rifle. The dog was barking nonstop, so I looked out the window to see what was bothering her/ him/it . As I looked to my left, I noticed something was moving quickly beneath the grass in the yard. All of a sudden, dirt started spewing from the grass toward the house.

I grabbed my mom's shoulder in a panic and pointed to the window. Her eyes widened as she bent down to look outside.

Dad came over to the window with his gun/ guns, grabbed my shoulder, and said, “Go upstairs to the hall closet. I’m going to go outside and look around. Nina, take Samantha with you to the closet and don’t come out until I return. Okay?”

I opened my mouth to answer him, but he was already on his way to the front door. It slammed shut behind him as he ran outside.

Mom lead me to the closet, but did not stay herself as Dad had asked. As I was grabbing my dad’s jacket from a hanger above, I could hear objects crashing against each other downstairs followed by a bloodcurdling scream.

I crouched down and covered my ears with my hands as warm tears ran down my cheeks. I thought to myself, “My parents must have died.” I didn't know what to do next. All I knew was that I would probably be the next victim of this mysterious and deadly creature.

Very impressive! The only problem is that this is in your own writing style, not Selena's. Good post though! - 00ffada9, Oct 2, 2014

Nice Selena. Well,actually I cannot imagine aplace where a father has so many guns in his house.. Totally forbidden in Europe.. I don't knw what handguns are?Pistols? Also, all the grabbing by the shoulder sounds brutal, maybe a tap on the shoulder or putting a hand on the shoulder would be sufficent? Closetsd in England are toilets.. Anyway, well done and it will help us to correct the Spanish version. It is a very exciting tale indeed, you have talent!
