Lost (By Ethan & Nick)

The last thing George remembered was feeling the breeze speed up as the train plummeted towards the dark oak forest. Then he blacked out.

George woke with a sharp pain in his left leg, “AH!” he screamed, a huge block of wood had collided into his ankle, blunt pieces of wood shot out through his soft skin, blood oozed from the wound, “Help me!” he screamed thinking he was alone, then he heard a rustle and the sound of heavy breathing, another person stood bruised and battered “hello?” the strange figure responded. “Over here!” George screamed.

The stranger didn’t know what to do, he took a step back and glanced at George. Then, he leaped forwards and grabbed the plank of wood that was in George’s leg and tore at it. then it came loose and George could get up. The stranger grabbed his arm and put him over his shoulder and sat George up against a tree “see if there’s any more people that made it” said George while taking sharp quick breaths. “The name’s Peter” said the stranger.

Peter walks for a while checking for survivors “Help!” he hears someone scream, He jumps and steps over to find two people hoisting someone from the wreckage “Crap!” one says as the body tumbles out impaled with a big hunk of metal, “what the f#$%” “Run!” one screams as a another part of the train drops from the bridge and crashes into a man crushing him and into woman’s leg “AHH!” she whales pinned to the soil “what should we do?” says Peter “ we have to leave her” says the driver who says his name is Nathan “No way!” shouts Peter cross “Please don’t leave me” mumbles the woman “Fine.” say’s Nathan. “We have to cut her leg off.” says peter “Three, two one Go!” “AHH!” the woman screams as the knife slices her leg off, they drag her back to where George was lying, DEAD.

Disappear (QUICK WRITE)

The old train gushed through the overgrown swamp, somehow staying afloat, It’s once rich gold exterior had now become a dull greyish green. It emerged from the depths of a cosy house, positioned on a mountain top, the mist blocked out almost all of the sunshine and the humidity here was astonishing. Above the train was a watcher, It made sure the train reached it’s destination in time. The mist closed in and thickened the sky, The train lost control and went swerving of to the side,
Never to be seen again.

Nick & Troy go to war 3 (ft lasers)

We wait, Nick, Troy and our new friend, Ethan. Were about to invade the battlefield, sweat pours down Troy’s face, this was the toughest mission yet. “So uh what exactly do you do here?” asks Ethan “Be Quiet! i'm under a lot of pressure!” Troy shout’s.
“Ok boys you're up next.” say’s a boring adult “remember not to die like last time” Nick say’s, “Got it.” Ethan and Troy both say.

“Ok, we can do this.” says troy through fretted breaths, We rush down the long corridor leading into the battlefield our laser guns ready in our hands. We run in with our guns blazing into the enemy soldiers. Nick goes up into small compartment unit and signals us to follow him in. Troy and Ethan suddenly get lost through all the chaos.

“Up here guys!” Nick shouts leading them in. “What do we do?” Ethan asks “There’s too many of them!” Nick continues “We need to stick together and ambush them.” Troy says “Ok” Ethan and Nick both reply. “Three, two, one GO!”, we leap out firing lasers in all directions hoping to strike someone. We hear cry’s of collapsed soldiers stuck by the hot lasers “Run!” Ethan screams dodging rival lasers. We run over to a thick block for shelter, “What now!?” we all yell.

“We should go back to base for cover” Ethan suggests. Troy suddenly hears something BOOM!! went a huge barrel of fuel, “GET DOWN NOW!!” Cries Troy. Troy run’s to the left while Ethan and Nick sprint to the right. Nick storm’s upstairs to the unit from before to help Troy up. Ethan goes down to try and keep the enemy at bay.

“We got company!” Scream’s Ethan before being struck in the chest “AHHHHHHHHH!” he shouts tumbling down like roadkill “Not again!” Troy says “I thought I told you not to die!” Nick shouts annoyed “I can’t help it man! This kind of thing happens every time, I thought it would be rather fitting!” shouts Ethan, “well were getting kind of bored of the bad death scenes!” screams Nick and Troy, “I’m going home” mumbles Ethan walking away.

“Well there goes our new friend!” says Nick “Yeah, we're really bad at keeping friends” replies Troy. we hear a voice “Freeze, don’t move!” “It’s an enemy soldier!” cry’s Troy “Blam!” goes a laser before whacking into Nick’s bum “OWEE!” screams Nick running of crying. “You're next scream’s the soldier, “Oh No!” cry’s Troy in fear.
Then out of nowhere Ethan appears and fires a laser right into the soldier's arm, he jolts back in pain “YOWZA!” the soldier screams falling to the ground “Ethan, you came back!” shouts Troy in delight. “Yeah well my mum wasn’t back yet so I didn’t really have an option.” says Ethan “oh” Troy replies “What happened to Nick?” Ethan asks “some egg head, shot him in the bumhole.” say’s Troy. “Ouch, that would hurt” continues Ethan “Ok kiddies round’s over says a boring adult “Aw!” Troy and Ethan both say.

"Water" (QUICK WRITE)

WALT: use descriptive language

The sky softened as the first glimpses of winter crept through. The glow of the bonfire lit up
Frank’s face, his shaggy grey beard swayed in the morning wind like a thousand kite’s. His travels were almost concluded and his village would soon be saved, he trudged through the scorched wasteland in search for the scarce source called “water” just as Frank felt death upon his shoulders, he saw a quick flowing stream, “Were saved!” he screamed in joy.

Nick & Troy go to war 2 (ft paintballs)

We walk into the dusty rustic battlefield, we plant our feet on the ridged dirt “Dude I bet we look so OP right now!” Nick says excitedly “Yeah, course we do” Troy replies calmly “Ok kiddies so you wanna hold your gun like this..” says a boring adult “Team?” we both say at the same time, we walk in the battlefield, guns gripped firmly in our hands “can we get some water, cause it’s gonna get hot!” Troy says cooly.


When the other team strides in we glare into there eyes. We’re in the arena, “this reminds me of the hunger games” Troy says to himself “Got that right” Nick recites. “Three, two, one GO!” Troy and Nick run out into the forest for some cover we go down into a loot tower to get some supplies. “We got company!” shouts Nick over the sound of Troy getting supplies.


Paintballs zip past barely missing us “Get down!” Troy screeches as a bullet flies past him.
We quickly shove the supplies in our bags and make a risky run for cover by some pine trees. “Do you think they saw us?” Nick says nervous, “OBVIOUSLY!” Troy replies. we retreat into a dune “you got the supplies?” Nick says “I thought you had them” Troy whispers “really! now we have no bullets!” Nick shouts angry “just joking it's on the floor behind me”
Troy replies, “not funny” mumbles Nick.


We soon go out into the battlefield, running through hundreds of bodies each covered in a thick coat of paint. “Whoa! Look at all those bodies!” Troy says scared “Dude they’re pretty good actors” Nick says “Seriously, you ruined the really deep dramatic death sequence!” one shouts angrily “I’m going home!” another one says, “Jeez what’s their problem?” asks Troy
“I have no idea- SMACK!” a paintball jams into Troy's face, he hurtles down the hill in pain. “No!” Nick screams running down, “Don’t die on me!” Nick shouts “I-It's ok, just t-tell my fa-family I wanted another cupcake for dessert” “No!” Nick screams as Troy rolls on his side dead “Why!” Nick crys “Ok what’s the problem?” says a boring adult “WHY DOES EVERYONE RUIN THE DEATH SCENE!” We both scream.

Without Gravity

The girls screamed in delight, for they were flying. “SPLASH!” went a glass of water as it hovered across the room releasing the contents inside, It was as if everything was in slow motion “Whoa” Charlotte echoed in disbelief. Pencils whizzed across the room along with toy dolls, Stacey tried to grip onto the window ledge but she continually failed. Jemma, Charlotte's little sister hadn’t even noticed the bizarre frequency all around them, for she still lay in bed fast asleep. Charlotte certainly knew that her space house was in desperate need of repair. Her family had decided to move to space roughly around
3 light years ago using hibernation pods. It was an old house and it’d take around 4 lightyears for the plumber to arrive. So for now they’d just have to take a leap of faith into a world without gravity…

Nick & Troy go to war (ft water balloons)

“Run Troy!” Nick screamed as they retreated from the front line, soldiers falling around them. Water balloons surging past exploding as they hit poor victims they were out numbered. “Wait up Nick!” screamed Troy.


As Nick scurried back to base, Troy turned around  and the entire enemy team were looking at him with their big water balloons. He stopped and put his hands up and he got smashed with the thick wet balloons, then Nick came out with his water balloons and rekted the other team Troy was saved.


“Hurry!” shouted Nick over the sounds of splashing water. They ran back to base barely making it alive, they were surrounded by large trees it would be impossible to see any soldiers out there, they walked down when a large water balloon struck Nick in the back “Argh!” screamed Nick falling to the murky ground “it’s an ambush!” screamed troy ducking below cover, once it was over Troy stumbled out, Nick lay there “are you okay?” said Troy “I-I don’t think i'm going to make it,” said Nick “don’t say that” said Troy “If I die tell my Family that, I - I wanted more pizza for lunch”


“NICK DON'T DIE ON ME!” cried troy “Dude it’s just a little water, geez take a chill pill” said Nick
“ I thought you were going to die on me.” staggered Troy “Dude you ruined my fake dramatic death!” shouted Nick angrily. “Oops” said Troy “you know what never mind a fake dramatic death!” “i'm going home” mumbled nick walking off angrily..


Without Nick Troy knew this would be a very difficult win. But he still kept on, up the hill across the field and into the battle field he was immediately attacked and barely made it, enemy soldiers raised their balloons and fired at him “help!” Troy cried, Then without warning the soldiers were shot down, troy looked up to see Nick standing there, water balloons in hand “I’ll never leave a friend behind” said Nick Proudly “I knew you were corny but I never thought you were this corny” said Troy back. “Never mind about that” said Nick. They carried on walking..


This was the moment that they knew that they were going to kick some enemies in the butt, literally.” Arghhhhhhhh!!” they shouted as they kicked some Butt, then Troy saw on the ground a rocket launcher “yes! now we are going to do something” said Troy. Nick went back to the front line while Troy covered him with the  rocket, while Nick was going to the front line Troy heard something behind him, as he slowly turned around he was shocked to see that it was the captain of the enemy team.


“please don’t shoot Troy said nervously, as Troy tries to stay calm Nick sneaks right behind the captain as Troy distracts him “slowly put the gun down” Nick said, as he puts his gun down they splash him with a watery death. “We WON!”
They both screamed “Games over kiddies..” said a boring adult “aww!” we both groan..

What is Art?

To me art can be different for different people, In my opinion art can tell a story, a vision, an expression or even a meme. Art is something witch one creates either from things they see hear or imagine. Art  can be one little detail or a huge painting, almost anything is a form of art and can be.

Arrow Tag

I charged desperately, ducking below cover, I loaded my arrow, it's hard foam tip pointing slightly upwards "FIRE!" screamed a fellow comrade. I let go of the rope, violently thrusting it into the enemy base. "nice!" I ran over to the other soldiers.Valuable arrows gripped in my sweaty hand, "take them!" I shouted over the sounds of bloody warfare, I glanced up "GET DOWN!" I screamed hurtling towards the ground, A thin streak of wood soared past throwing itself into a wall barely missing us. We sprinted out, I sheltered myself behind a thick wall sticking out of the ground. I peered out aiming my arrow at an enemy soldier I straightened my arrow pulled my bow "Ahh!" I shrieked. An arrow had been fired at my leg. Pain surged through my body, I let out another cry. I got up, time was running out "FIRE!" I screamed running into the open. My act of recklessness had me not realize the enemy aiming for my- "AHHH MY NUTS!"...

He flutters and flys just like a butterfly.
 His body is the same color as a bright green palm tree.
 His red rosy cheeks are beautiful roses,
 his body is a plum witch has almost exploded

Lone Survivor

Hans felt his way through the inky unlit sewers. He ran his hand against the sleek metal wall, desperately wishing that they hadn't stalked through the entrance, He was alerted in all senses and ready for a fight. He pulled out his musky flashlight wanting it to somehow still work, but like most other technology it had been wiped out during the storm. He heard something behind him, it was the sound of low moaning they were getting closer, he could sense them. Trapped souls, looking for a way out. He kept on.
After fifteen minutes of  walking he came across a few grimy boxes strewn across the murky black sewage. He picked one up and investigated it before slipping his hands through and opening it, “Batteries!” there were so many batteries. He picked one up and inserted it into his flashlight. It flickered before flashing on revealing a man curled on one side, Hans stumbled back in fear “ar- are you okay?!” Hans exclaimed.
An eerie silence filled the sewers “g- go” stuttered the man. “wh-CRASH!” Hans turned around, two green gooey blobs slithered towards him “Argh-!” screamed the man as one latched onto his face, his screams were quickly cut of, He was dead..

Hans scurried down the long tunnel, not daring to look back. He knew they were still on his tail, he could hear their distinct moans. He kept on until he found a ladder leading up to the surface. Hans didn’t care about the radiation that would pierce his soul. He hoisted himself up being careful not to slip on the rusty metal he pushed against the round lid preventing him from getting out, the moans were getting louder he was getting desperate he slammed his fist into the lid swinging it open



To reveal darkness, it was night. He climbed up the last few bars and stood up among an abandoned world hoping that someday in his lifetime, the world would grow normal again...

7:30 AM

I ran downstairs grabbed my bag, put my shoes on and jumped in the car.
It was a quiet ride down too school and when I got there I met up with all my friends and told them about the holidays. Then the BELL RANG “NOO!” school started!

Tundra Town

Walt: use descriptive language  

                                           Tundra Town 

                

Kace Truded through  the jagged rocks barley staying stable. The ground had been slippy from melting snow "Urgh Gross!" said the young teen as she stomped on yak poo. She desperately kicked trying to remove the droppings from her shoes, she looked up at the short pointy town that lay in front. a sign stood lifelessly. "Tundra Town?" said Kace reading the message, "what kind of name is tundra town?" she said to no one, the bright red buildings looked as though they'd been untouched for weeks maybe even months behind it stood a wall of rocks blocking most of the sunlight "Hello-o!" she shouted. A few seconds past when some lights flickered and then all power from the small village had been turned on "whoa cool" said Kace shocked that anyone had noticed "hello?" came a voice from inside a small house to her left, she focused her gaze to a small mouse "hello?" it said again "um hello" said Kace terrified "oh hello there" said the mouse as if it was normal to see a talking mouse
"yo-you can talk?" Kace stammered "of course I can were have you been the stone age?" "u-umm no" she said "well ok then" said the mouse ushering her to come in. The mouse was wearing a small top hat with a red woolen jacket "umm who are you?" she asked curiously "The name's  Tick, Tundra Tick." what a silly name she thought. "Tea?" he offered handing her a small mug "Thanks" she said 
putting it on a wooden table "So what brings you here?" said Tick "my father sent me to find refuge here" she said "Oh! I know you your father would come here with your every month! you used to love it" Said the mouse with joy "I thought those were just dreams" she said "well your welcome here anytime!" said the mouse "well here's the thing i kind of, moved out so, can I like live here?" "oh boy" said Tick sighing...

Production Recount

Production



I could feel my heart pounding against my chest like a drum when the first song came on, I was 
mentally preparing for this then halfway through the production I heard the the line "MARCH!" and I realized there was no going back.
I staggered up to stage sweat running down my palms, we began singing I was soon lost in the rhythm it was only a few minutes but it felt like a lifetime. once it was over I stumbled down stage drowning in a flood of relief. we'd done it!

Journey

Journey

We trotted through the isolated wasteland. Horses forced to keep moving or left for dead. Dehydration scratching at our insides taking lives by the hour, But we still keep on forward. our masters would hit us if we stopped and we were determined not to lose in the game between life or death. I stumbled over the jagged rocks hurtling towards the soft sand my master flew across the ground hitting his head. I lost it and ran of into the barren landscape not caring how i would survive not thinking until i stumbled and fell into a pit of death...

Tsunami Horror

the day started out as any other I went to school, then out of the blue the lights flickered than died "its probably just a power cut" said my teacher assuring us then we heard the tsunami bells ring. everybody went into a panic I tried to open the door but it had been jammed shut, the teacher left us!
I grabbed a chair without thinking and smashed the window open I got out and saw a huge wave hurtling toward us I ran without thinking I looked back i saw kids screaming as it hit the school "Ahh!" I whaled running, I looked back once more "Arghh!" I screamed as it swallowed me into the depths I swam to the surface but the water pined me down I passed out...

When I woke I was floating on a plank of wood "urgh" I went coughing out water I was so filled with adrenaline that I didn't even realise the pain I was in "Ahh!" I screamed in agony my leg was broken. I tried to navigate were I was but failed I looked around and saw a cat stranded on a door I tried to swim over to it but I was in to much pain I looked around and saw a small wood beam I grabbed it and used it as paddle I grabbed the cat it was ginger with a collar saying "Daisy" I pet it not really knowing why maybe just for comfort I soon drifted into a deep sleep.. when i woke the water had all dried up meaning i had probably been asleep for a few days i looked around daisy had found a dead mouse. I heard footsteps I was in some sort of camp a doctor found me and fixed my leg then I met up with my family sadly not all of them had survived we had to stay at the camp for a while when our house was being built but a least we were safe...

Moment in time

my heart raced as i planted my foot inside the battlefield, mask on my head gun gripped firmly in my hand,
I ran as the whistle blew, bullets coming from both sides of me "Urk!" i went as a bullet blew against my jacket, i ducked behind a small sheet of metal along with another soldier, "Fire!" he whaled as we shot at the enemy "AH!" he went dropping to the ground, my heart raced as i held down on the trigger, "Ugh!" i fell to the ground aswell, i looked over at my arm a patch of bright red formed around it, i looked over at my wounded team mate, "Hel-lp" he stuttered, i rushed over, "We can do this" i told him firmly then i helped him up and we shot like our lives depended on it, my bloody arm still hurt but i ignored it.
we shot at them they shot at us, i fell to the ground my hand had been shot and my gun had flung out of grip and across the battlefield "ugh" i struggled grabbing the gun but i managed to get it, "Argh!" i shouted shooting at the enemy i shot the soldier who had wounded me through the shoulder, he fell down, just as i shot him the whistle blew once more,
it was over...


(Don't worry it was just paintball no one really got that hurt)

Isolation

It was a sad day, the air was moist and grey, an old house lay among the grass
Isolated from others, the house had dull grey walls with paint hanging lifelessly of the sides and a chimney which looked as though it had not been used in years,
There was a river by the house which was grey and polluted, this really was a sad sad place...

Shipwreck

The ship rocked side to side with the wind, jack staggered towards the captain
His hat wet, and his boots soggy and stale.
“Cap!, the ships not gonna make it!” screamed jack over the howling of the storm
“Nonsense my boy!” said the captain back,
But jack was right the ship wasn’t going to make it,
The ship lurched forward tipping all the boxes and crates to the other end of the ship,
It was too much weight, Jack ran down scooping the cargo away
But as he did so a humongous wave clashed with the boat and he was sent
Flying of the ship,
“Help!” he screamed, but no one could hear him over the churning of the rocks against the ship “HELP!” he screamed once more,
The current dragged him beneath the waves,
adrenaline rushed through him, he tried to swim up but couldn’t he looked down
A piece of rope had gotten caught in his leg
He swam down and desperately tried to get it off
He couldn’t hold his breath any longer,
Jack took a breath, his lungs burnt,
He screamed under the water in frustration and pain
His eyes became droopy then he saw the captain in a life raft leaving,
And that was the last thing he ever saw before the slumber took over…

Winter

Winter
🔷
By nicholas hughes


Winter cold and chilly
Filled with all things white or blue
If you did a big fat poo do you think it would turn blue?
You don’t want to go swimming otherwise you would
Turn white or maybe get hyperthermia and
Not come out alive?
These are just some questions that may or may not be true
But one thing’s for sure,


Don't do that big fat poo!

Autumn Poem

    Autumn
🍁


Trees left bare with few Marron leaves Swaying
Green grass Turns a yellowish Stale
orange skies bleed through fog
Leafs drop through dead trees above
The sky is dark with morning fog
Raindrops fall from way above
Autumn's at its end

next comes summer time for Fun!
