Chapter 2

"What happened?" I seemed to be the only one that could manage to spit out the words to say anything. "B-but, h-how." Charlie said, relived he could blurt out what was on his mind. "I'm dreaming, this can't happen, it's just, i'm sleeping. no no No NO! This can't be happening, what about, everything."
 I walked around in circles trying to convince myself this wasn't happening. " This isn't happening, it can't be happening." I mumbled to myself. "Would you, just, calm down, OK, this isn't going to help the situation."
" The situation! We don't know what the situation is." I pointed out the window, at the thick foggy forest that stood, still asleep, only meters away. " If only i had the Lab here i would really like to take some of there DNA to the Lab, just look at the size of those trees, there hundreds, no Thousands of years old, they have been here for ages. Do you not find this fascinating?"
"No i do not find this amazing o-or anything, do you even know what is out there? There could be monsters bigger than those trees, that will eat us!" I panicked slightly, my breath was hotter than it would normally be, and it burnt my throat. " Well can we at least go outside and have a look?'
"Fine, but we can't go that far out, and your staying with me!"
"Yes, thank you, i will i will." He didn't have to think about it, i was hopping the part where he had to stay with me would of thrown him off.


"Are you ready?" Charlie was eager to get outside, he couldn't wait to get a close look at what was out side. "Me, am i ready, one, am i ever, and two, you are the one that spent the last fifteen minutes gathering your equipment."
"So is that a yes?" He said, he was acting as if he was ten. " Yes." I started to walk outside. "Do you think we will need a rain coat?"
"Go!" I walked on, i  hesitated, i really didn't want to know what was out here. " OK." I opened the door. " Whoa." Charlie was blown over by the beauty of the forest that stood in front of us. I couldn't move, i really wasn't expecting this. It was amazing, i don't have the words. The ground didn't have grass, but a strange green moss that spread over like a blanket, it was soft and was almost , like memory foam. " This is incredible, But how?" I slowly looked over to charlie, who had his head so far back he almost fell back. " You're kidding me, right?"
"No." He said, i don't think he quite got where i was coming from. " That's the question i have been asking this whole time! And now you care!" Charlie didn't seem to hear me, He was watching a butterfly. It had a Bright vibrant neon pink, with neon yellow spots. " I haven't seen anything like it!" I walked off, trying to get my head around the whole thing. Then there was a crunch of leaves and twigs in the darkness. " Charlie, Charlie, there is something there! CHARLIE!" I took a big step back. " What, what is it?" He looked at me, i didn't move. " Come on, there is nothing to be scared of. Just think about it, this has been here the whole time, untouched, and we are the ones who discover it." He pats me on the back and walked into the house, admiring the DNA he held. I turned around slowly walking back not daring to look back. four red beaming eyes stare.  there was a growl. I freeze i didn't want to think about what could of made that sound, so i walked on convincing myself it was my stomach. the sun slowly faded behind the trees, and the moon crept up.

No Mater How Far - Chapter 1

 Every week i will post another chapter of my story. Please keep an eye out for my story chapter posts. Please leave comments and give me some of your ideas on what should happen next.




Chapter One

I was puffed, my feet aching, my head thumping so loud i was sure others could hear it.
What ever was chasing me wasn't small, i could tell because i could hear it thumping loudly towards me, this giant monster or what ever it was, it didn't appreciate me being in its territory.
The thick branches slapped hard against my cold skin and left cuts and red lines all across
 my face. Now my feet were dead, they felt like they were being jabbed with 1,000 needles and knifes at once, i wanted to stop but i wasn't going to give in. I then went around a corner and spotted a hollow log covered in moss and snapped branches. I crawled in, panting, i tried to slow down my breath and keep quiet, but i couldn't help it, i put my hands over my mouth. The monster thumped past roaring and i sat there still for a moment, until it was further down the track, i knew i didn't have long to run, so i sprinted tiered, in the other direction.


2 days before...


"Charlie....  Charlie!!!!!" I shouted down the hallway. "What do you want?!" He popped his head out from his room, his chocolate brown hair glimmering in the sun that streaked through the window at the end of the hallway. "Come here, you need to listen to this...   the weather reporter on the TV, there predicting a storm, they don't understand though, it looks like a tropical storm but..." I froze. "What.. what is it?"he asked with a distressed sound in his voice. " What would a Tropical storm be doing all the way out here, in England, and not to mention in the middle of winter?" Charlie looked at me as if i had drunk to much coffee. "Sam, its probably just the global warming, we all know its getting worse"
"Yeah, i know but, it can't go from normal weather to a massive tropical storm, it'll build up gradually, and just get hotter and hotter, and more like tropical weather. Wont it?"
"Well we don't need to worry to much. Lets just get some sleep, o.k. See you in the morning Sam."
"see you in the morning."


It was a sleepless night, the wind was howling and carried the sounds of voices, the rain loudly tapped continuously on the roof. I tossed and turned not even getting a wink of sleep. and neither could Charlie , i could tell because i could hear him talking to himself. When my alarm went off at 7:00 Charlie was already in the kitchen boiling the kettle. "Did you get any sleep?" Charlie said while putting two Kenya Bold tea bags into cups. " Not a wink."
"I can tell by the look of you hair." My Jet black hair seemed to have turned into dreadlocks overnight." I lazily dragged myself to the couch and completely gave in to the couch. Charlie's slippers scuffed around on the kitchen floor. He put my cup of steaming tea on the coffee table in front of me. Charlie pulled the blinds part, letting the sun streak through hitting me, causing me to shut my eyes tightly. " Ah... Sam... Y-you.. lo-l- um- w." Charlie stammered, struggling to get out the words. " Just say it!"
"The- l-l-look... " He stood there, frozen. "UGH!" I dragged myself to the window above the sink. I could not believe what i was looking at. my mouth dropped open. Maybe i was getting some sleep after all. "What happened?"

My Mothers Day poems

All you do

You do with love

You are a gift

From GOD above

We will never drift

Apart, so far

For your love for me

I do not

Understand

But all i know

That it is

Grand.

M  youre magnificent love            

O   you are not ordinary
T    the tears you shed
H   your heart of gold
E   eyes of pure diamonds
R    you're always right

My poem about an amazing teacher who left

Miss Journee

Oh Miss Journee                      

Is she at the bay?           

Diving at Cay?

At this time of day?!

Did we have fun?

I'm sad that we're done

You're name is not un

You made a home run

Did she leave cause we're bad?

Did she leave cause of the lads?

I tried not to act fad

You were so rad!

Did you enjoy our time?

Are you eating lime?

You're worth more than a dime

Do you like my rhyme?!

Meanings:

( cay-a reef off the southern coast of Florida. Un- a female name. Fad- an interest that is exaggerated. Dime- a United States coin worth 10c.)

What I enjoyed

The food fridge

On Wednesday the 30th of August my class, room 1, went to the New Brighton food fridge. We carried  a supermarket bag each or 2 cans and walked down the street to the food fridge. Some of the food we had was spaghetti 🍝 caned curry and peaches 🍑 etc. When we got there we took turns going into the fridge and placing our food into the fridge. The cans went on the bottom (so they didn't fall and hurt on others) the Pasta and light foods went on the top shelf.

We all really loved getting out side to help our community. If you want to help the New Brighton Community please come with some food and donate to the food fridge.
