As I glanced out my window, I saw the rain throwing itself at the glass, it looked cold and still. There were no cars or barely any people about. Until later that night the wind got so strong that the signal for the telly was really poor. So we could barely hear it. The weather man said, “There is going to be a tornado to the east of the county”. 

“Oh no, that’s us!" I shouted. I went upstairs to look out my window and tiles flew off the houses across the road 1,2,3,4,5 it was heading my way…

It was a dark misty night. As midnight struck, the light flickered on, lighting the whole damp city. I was struggling with my feet. I dragged myself across the cracked road. I could hear the police cars racing closer and closer. I was petrified and started to run, when I saw the car racing after me. I took a turn into the forest and ran as fast as I could. As I ran branches smacked my face. When the noise faded away, I started to slow down. I walked through the gloomy, dark, forest, until I could find the perfect resting place.

This may look like a normal street to you but inside those houses there is a school for sorcerers like me for example and today is the day where the wizard war is on. I’m Nosidda the best wizard ever and can make stones into gold and other cool things like that. Anyway back to the war, there was only one round because only two people entered, James and I. First I turned him into a puddle and I won. That was all it took, one spell! That was not a challenge so I moved to an even better school.

Our Journey Home by Harvey

As we sat at the side of the road in the car, dad started to change the tyre. It was night time as we had been for a long day in London. As I looked out of the window all around was still and so quiet, not like the busy roads in the daytime. It had been raining, the road and path shimmered in the orange light from the street lights. It was starting to get colder as the night went on, as the trees swayed in the breeze it felt quite eerie. “DONE!” said dad and off we went.

It was a cold, wet, dark and dreary night, pitch black with only the light from the street lamps and the glow of the road signs gave a silhouette of a face in the distance. The two bright orange lights resembled the eyes whilst the white lit road signs resembled the long pointy nose whilst out lying trees and bushes resembled the hair line around the face, all night long the silhouette of the face was hit with heavy rain, strong winds and yet its image never changed. As cars drove by, it appeared to swallow them up with no trace.

The lamps of the street lights glistened and glowed in the darkness of the inky black sky. The big green bush crept into the picture and was stuck to the edge of the pavement like a button sewn onto a shoe. The roads were wet and soggy, they looked like they had just been rained on. It wouldn't be safe for drivers late at night because the roads would be too slippery like a hot piece of butter on toast.  The house in the background slowly faded away into the distance like a boat about to leave the sandy shore.

A dark night at about 7pm, a young girl looked out her window to find she could not see one person in site. The street were covered with glistening golden raindrops, as the reflection from the lamppost gave the rain its wonderful colour. The raindrops looked like a glorious ocean of shimmering stars. In the distance above the drenched trees there was a tremendously fluorescent light. When the young girl noticed the light she saw four of them, she wondered if she was seeing things so she rubbed her eyes and looked again…. But where were the dazzling street lights?

I was roaming down my street at night, all alone. I could see the bright reflection of the street lamps in the shallow puddles. It was very quiet that night because it was midnight. You are probably wondering why I am going home this late at night. The answer is, I come home late because I am at work. I do an evening shift. You might be thinking that it is a bad idea but it is ideal for me. I love walking along my street at night because it is so peaceful, there is nobody making too much noise.

This is the street I live on. I feel safe and secure when I walk down this street because it is well lit even though it is night time. A lot of the time I stare out my bedroom window and look at all the features of this street like the bushes, lights and houses. There are a lot of houses on my street and my friends live close. My neighbours are very friendly they are very nice as well I like living on this street it is in a very good environment and my house is really nice I love it.

One night I heard a big loud CRASH BANG CLUTTER so I ran outside to see what was going on. It was a car crash the driver had a big scar on his left cheek a plaster on his middle fingers and his hair was short, brown and messy. Me and some others rushed to help him, his car was all smashed we asked him how he crashed he said "I must have slipped on some black ice and that is all I remember," We called the ambulance to come and help him and after that the street was quiet after all that!

I was walking through the dark street at night when the street light flickered. As I stepped towards the lamp my friend appeared behind the lamp. I went towards her through the muddy puddles. It smelt like apples. I called out her name and she disappeared again. All the time I wondered where she went. I could not find her anywhere again. I wanted to tell someone but I thought I would put her life in even more danger where ever she went. I went home and put on the fire as I was still wondering where she went!

The street glowed like the sun had fallen. The eerie orange light shone like stars that had been captured and forced to make the street scream with brightness. Although you think it looks pretty, you would be shocked to discover why. How shiny it was on the path. It fooled you into thinking that it had rained but really they are the star's tears. The litter had been kicked out of sight. If you saw what I had seen then you would wish that human kind were not yet developed. To you this looks like a normal street, to me it’s the best part of our town.

I looked outside at the wet street.

"Why doesn't it ever snow in Winter?" I thought. The street was dark and gloomy. The street lights shined brightly on the rocky concrete.

"You'll never get your wishes if you stare out the window," my mum said. I sighed at the window.

"Maybe if I do something good," I thought. I got out a sheet of paper and did my homework. I rushed back to the window again. Small snowflakes started to fall. I knew it wasn't enough. I wondered what I was going to do next. It was all a giant mystery.

One day, on my way to school, I spotted a pink gorilla. I was startled because not only was it pink but it was playing a grand piano really well. Then surprisingly it started talking it said "well hello there what's your name young lady!"

"Hello mister my name is Rose!" I replied.

"Well then Rose today is your lucky day 'cause I'm gonna sing you a song!" The gorilla started to sing a song all about me. The song that the gorilla sung was funny, and I laughed so hard I almost bumped into a man riding a bicycle...

On Monday, when I was at school, my teacher asked for my homework. Then I remembered it was a big project that I had to do for the week, so I said to my teacher that when I was walking to school I saw a grand, pink, furry gorilla on a bicycle. Then the gorilla asked what was in my bag. So I opened it and showed the gorilla what was inside and then as quick as a flash he took my homework biked off while he laughed so loudly it could crack a glass. Then my teacher said, “OK I will let you off.”

Breaking news!

A gorilla has escaped from the Higgilty-Piggilty Zoo! Be careful - this monkey steals shoes!

I laughed wildly. Just as I finished giggling, I heard a creaking wheel behind me. I timidly turned around. The gorilla stood smiling. It had broken through my wall! It had taken my bicycle and our families shoes. The gorilla really was grand. It danced around the house and put on a pink dress! My parents raced into the room and called the zoo-keepers. They came and forced the gorilla into their van. I never saw it again as I realised I had just dug into a magical world...

Once in a zoo there lived a gorilla named Travis. There was however something different about Travis. He was very different from other gorillas because he was bright pink. Every day the same man with a grand bicycle came round and laughed at him. Travis always felt the same, miserable and sad. The man wasn't the only one making fun of him. All the other gorillas started teasing him. The children who came to the zoo never came to his cage because he was pink. But there was one gorilla that never laughed at him or called him names and he was called Freddie.

Tomorrow is my birthday, I wanted a light blue and pink bicycle but when I woke up in the morning there were no presents! I looked everywhere; in the garage, under my bed, in the living room, but still no presents…

“This must be a grand mistake!” I screamed as I jumped up and down.

“Oh look harder,” Dad said to me.

The one place I had not looked the attic…

“Look at that big box!” I exclaimed

I ripped it open; it was a baby gorilla.

“You tricked me,” I laughed.

“Dad I have two questions, where’s my bike? … And where’s my baby gorilla?”

Lewis #19

Today, I saw a huge pink gorilla, he was walking down the street casually as if he was a normal person. When I saw him I laughed but he didn't notice me laughing in the background. Not long after he went into a grand old house. He came out on a bicycle, I laughed even more! Then he noticed me, he chased me, I ran as fast as I could. We were both tired and out of breath, he caught me up.  We both fell on the floor and could not stop laughing, he was very friendly. Today was the funniest day of my life!

Nico #19

One day I woke up from my bed. I went outside to get on my bicycle but it was gone. Looking around, I saw a man wearing a gorilla mask to not give facial evidence to the police. I called the grand city police, then the man laughed, shouting, "Catch me if you can!" Then the police came rampaging down the cracked road and zoomed to the man’s pink van they started bashing and crashing into each other like crazy wrestlers! Finally, the van stopped. The police handcuffed the man. The police took the bike to me, then I cycled off down the road.
