In the abandoned house the silence was deafening. You couldn’t even hear
a mouse until me and my friend opened the wardrobe and there was a skeleton
living in there. We both screamed and ran for our lives. We ran out of the
front door of the house and we were still screaming all the way home. That
night I couldn’t sleep but just there next to my door was an outline of the
same skeleton we saw in the wardrobe. I blinked twice and then when I opened my
eyes the skeleton was gone. I knew I saw it but I was not believed by anyone.

Today in class we had a giant paper airplane fight. It
started when we were seeing how paper planes work. The teacher was tapping at
the board while I could hear some folding behind me. Suddenly, a paper airplane
whooshed past my shoulder. It hit the teacher's head and bounced back. The silence was deafening
as the teacher turned around.
"Who did this!" he yelled. All the children
pointed at the person behind me. It was Liam, the naughtiest boy in my class.
Liam can scare anyone away by just pulling his mighty fist. I turned my head
round.

The
silence was deafening, for an arena it was quiet. The audience were as
still as statues and Messi was halfway through a flip but he was stuck in mid-air.
I was the only one moving, or alive for that matter. The roof was also stuck in
mid-air. I walked out of the arena, grabbing handfuls of food. No earth. No
grass. No air. I had to hold my breath but soon gave up. I knew I was away from
earth. The statues could have been dead people and what caused Messi to be in
the air could be the gravity levels. There must be a simple explanation, there
always is mind you. But where was I and how did I get here?

The
silence was deafening, on my little sisters birthday. We were supposed
to be singing but no one was because there was a green nosed witch. She had frozen
all my family and friends which made me very sad. The witch said I will curse
your family. Which I knew I didn't want that to happen. So I had to go to the witch’s
castle and see if I could go into the dungeon through the fire and see if I
could get the golden trophy. Which I knew I would! In a way. I did eventually.
Mia
I was walking down the cold muddy path and everywhere was
silent not a sound to be heard. The silence was deafening then a loud screeching noise came
across the woods! "Eek" I shouted as I tried to cover my ears but the
sound made its way through, so I started to run from the sound but it got
louder and louder so I went the other way as the sound disappeared I stopped
and silence was one more. I wondered to
myself what it was suddenly, it popped into my head it was my shoes! So I
stepped lighter on my feet as I did NOT want to experience the sound again. But
I could be wrong...

One day I was walking along the woods, the silence was deafening
that I could not hear a bird tweeting. I could smell the apple blossom from far
far away. I was looking around the forest trying to find a beautiful flower to
take to my mum and dad but all I could see was trees. Even though I was in the
middle of the woods there was still silence. It was really weird. The trees
were like a lime green. The flower I wanted was pansy because my mum’s
favourite colour is yellow and my dad’s favourite colour is red.
Eleanor
I was visiting a castle in the highland in Scotland but when
I got there it was empty the
silence was deafening and spooky. The castle was an old ruin and they
were supposed to have a tour I paid £100 for this tour. Wait what's that it’s a
blue light wait this is like the Disney film brave that is in Scotland. Maybe I
should follow it well Merida did not do very well when she followed the wisp so
maybe I shouldn't. Let's just go yes that’s what I'm going to do go home. I'm
going to get my money back.

I was at school, I hate school, I am always tripping and
falling. I am the clumsiest child in my school, and I am not proud of it. It
was Monday, boring Monday. It was lunchtime, and I was looking for a place to
sit. Eventually I found a place to sit, as I walked over to sit down, I slipped
on a banana peel. Everybody just stared at me, not saying a word. The silence was deafening.
They should have laughed, but the silence was bad enough. I was so embarrassed,
I never wanted to go to school again.

A few years ago, a young baby girl was born and her name was
Kara. From the minute Kara was born she had a problem with her ears. She
suffered periods of loss of hearing. A few years later Kara had experienced an
extremely terrifying storm. The ear-splitting sound of the storm caused further
unrepairable damage and it led to Kara becoming deaf. Kara’s life was changed forever
and the massive disability of not being able to hear made Kara feel the silence was deafening.
Kara had to live with this disability the rest of her whole life and she was
never the same….
Sophia
The little girl slowly but steadily entered the old, creaky
house. She pushed the pitch black gate open with a nudge and it fell off its
hinges. She stepped onto the welcome mat that looked like it wasn’t very
greeting. As her feet rested on the old flooring, the silence was deafening and she slowly plodded
down the stairs. Suddenly a loud bang came from the other room and she was
knocked over! She ran out of the house and never set eyes on it again, leaving
her prized possession an old heart charm the colour of the midnight sky.

I was in a car with my Dad, we drove to a park on a sunny
day, then everything turned black so we had to go back home quickly before we
got seen by the zombies, once we got back home we saw that everyone went out
the house. But then I heard that the silence was deafening in my ears but it was only the zombies
outside banging on the door. Then everything came back sunny again, then
everyone came back home. Then Dad and I went to go do some racing on the rugby
pitch with our remote control cars.

On Saturday my family was going shopping in town, I didn’t
want to go as shopping was boring, so I asked if they could drop me off at the
library so I could look for another Diary of a Wimpy kid book and then pick me up when they had finished. So that’s
what we did. On the way I could hear birds singing, people chatting, vehicles
beeping and children shouting it’s so noisy. As I entered the library and
closed the door behind, the
silence was deafening what a change by only walking through a door peace
at last.
Harvey
On my holiday to Spain we stayed in a big mansion but what
we didn’t know was it was a spooky one. When we got there I was petrified
because it was scary looking. I nearly ran as fast as I could away. I walked
into my room and it was that quiet the silence was deafening. There were paintings on the wall that
made me feel like they were looking at me and there were cobwebs in the corner
of my room and on the room so I ran as fast as I could to my Mum and Dad.

Every Saturday, me and my friend Kieran go to the cinema.
Usually we watch funny films for children, but this time it was different. Like
always we chose a kids' movie, however we had no idea, like most of the
children watching, what is about to happen. Through most of the movie it was
hilarious, however right at the end, one of the main characters had a bad
accident. Everyone held their breath with a hope for positive end. The silence was deafening
as if nobody was present at the theatre. Finally, awaited by everyone, the happy
ending came and we all sighed with relief.

This is it, I am playing in Wimbledon finals and it’s the
championships point. It’s now or never, the crowd goes quiet, the silence was deafening.
I pick up the ball and toss it up in the air. The breeze blows my hair back. I
serve it, and he returns the serve, I don’t think I can get it. I leap and
stretch as far as I can, the ball just touches the end of my racket. The ball
hits on the white line it is in. At first I can’t believe that I have won. I
had dreamt of this since I was 10.
CaitlinThe silence was deafening. But then, a sudden movement, behind the big dark bush… A rustle. A creature? What was it? And what did it want? I didn’t know, but what I did know was that it seemed aggressive… Really aggressive. As I turned away to run something grabbed my shoulder. It was out of breath, breathing hard on my neck. Quick reactions are my strength; I kicked back and made a run for it! Heading straight back for my house I heard a call, “Chloe, Chloe!”… How did it know my name?
Chloe
