"…but I’m afraid it’s the last one," he said… Aron

Yesterday was long and boring. I was convinced that today would be as well. As it turned but it wasn’t at all that boring. I started by getting washed and fed and sprang outside. I ran to the top of the hill on the other side of the road and looked over the forest… “This sight is amazing!” I said. Then I saw someone…

“…but I’m afraid it’s the last one,” he said.

“What do you mean?!”

“All kinds of wonder around the world are being destroyed… I think you can help me stop this from happening! Follow me c’mon!”

...but it was far too hot... by Aron

On Saturday I was very bored, so I thought... why don't I make cookies? I bought all the ingredients I would need and started to bake. My sister came to help me. She passed to me all the ingredients and I weighed and mixed them together. Then we put our cookies into the oven and watched them rise slowly...

Finally they were ready. Mum was helping us to take them out, when I saw my sister running towards the oven. She grabbed one of the cookies, but it was far too hot and she burned her fingers. I felt sorry as she cried.

…some of the words sounded like a foreign language..., by Aron

When I was a little boy, I loved to listen my grandmother's stories, especially when she was telling me about times when she was little. Once, she told me that incredible story, when she met very strange creature. A creature unlike any other. She found it in the woods and went every day to feed it. My grandmother said it was fascinating, watching how this creature tried to communicate. It was using gestures and pointing at things. It also tried to speak and some of the words sounded like a foreign language. Sometimes I wish I could find creature like that as it would be great adventure.

But where could I go? by Aron

In the year 1211 life was hard, especially for me. I was about to be executed by King John. He wanted me dead as I gave 10 shillings to every poor person in town and it was the King's money. My head was already next to the axe. Suddenly I pulled up and the axe snapped the rusty chain and hit the ground!... I legged it and ran as fast as I could! I pushed the King's guards and other people that came to watch, out of my way. Then I ran into deep, gloomy forest thinking... but where could I go to hide?

Cauliflower Crimson Shivering Deep Walked by Aron

Once there lived a boy called Andy Cauliflower, and he lived in orphanage. Andy was always shivering because he was not a very brave boy. He cried every night, sobbing whilst tears fell from his cheeks because he was very lonely. Every night when he felt into deep sleep he dreamed about having a loving family. The boy always walked miserably and tiredly through the corridors. He was constantly hungry as he did not get the right food he needed. He always wore ripped and shredded, old clothes and his favourite crimson hat he got from his granddad before he passed away.

…but it made my tongue tingle… Aron

It was the summer holiday at last! I wasn't only excited about the end of school but I was also going to France! Mum booked us the perfect hotel next to this fantastic bakery. The journey was long but it was worth the wait! As we got there I could smell an amazing scent. The wafting smell led me inside the bakery, where there were baguettes and cakes. Then a man came and asked me if I wanted a cake. I chose a cherry one with popping candy. It was very good but it made my tongue tickle as it popped in my mouth...

...but the ferocious wind... by Aron

A long time ago, lived a man called Steven. Steven was wise and he loved sailing. One night when he was asleep on his boat snoring, he hurdled down of his bunk onto the floor. Steven hurried to the masts and tried to pull them down! But the ferocious wind tore them down snapping his boat in half! It was still afloat but sinking down fast! Steven dragged out an old life jacket and slipped it on. Then jumped out saving himself straight before the ship exploded into oblivion scorching across the surface of the water. Thankfully he returned to his house safely.

Aron - 100WC#32

"Finally morning!" I said falling and thumping the ground with a thud. I heard my mother calling in for breakfast. I looked in the mirror and stared for a while. I saw a ripple wave through the mirror, and then another one! I stood firmly. I felt a sudden breeze... I yelled loudly whilst getting pulled into the mirror... 

I woke a while later to see that I was lying on a log in a strange position. I felt small as right next to me stood an enormous bird... 

Suddenly I realised I was one of the Lego people!

As she was outside of his bedroom she saw a rat who jumped onto her shoulder. The rat was named Cow, he was Millie's brothers pet. When Millie skipped into her brother’s room she put down the food on his bedside table and popped Cow back into his cage. But she hadn't shut the bars properly, so Cow hopped out of the cage and into the wardrobe where he made a den. He did a little poo in Millie's brother’s best clothes. Millie had to sell Cow because he did a poo everywhere.

Aron - ...X marks the spot...

It was Saturday. I was very excited as mum took me to the Dunnottar Castle in Scotland. When we got there I saw that massive, really old and partly collapsed building. Inside I felt as if someone was watching me... it was strangely uncomfortable... I leant against a wall that suddenly creaked and that suddenly slid out of my reach. There was a massive X on the wooden floor. I reminded myself of stories about treasure where X marks the spot where treasure is hidden. When I stood on it, the wooden plank moved, I barely stopped myself from looking underneath the old, cranky board...

Aron - 100WC#28

Last summer me and my family went to Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. On Cardiff Bay, I saw statues of two people accompanied by a dog. The woman was sitting on handrail and pointing at the water. The man was looking at the woman with slight stare. In my head I was imagining what they were saying. I thought that maybe the woman was saying to the man; "Oh dear me! I can't believe we missed that ferry...” 

The man calmly answered, “If you had put trainers on as I asked, we would probably have caught it." I smiled as I thought it was funny.

Aron - My Ultimate Adventure

Pokémon!

In the morning I sprang up, slid down stairs and fell down with a bang. "I'm finally going to get my first Pokémon!" I shouted.

Then my mum said, "I thought you are awake but obviously you not!" 

"I can't wait to get my Pokémon!" I shouted grabbing my clothes. 

When I got to the professor's lab, I ran into the wall missing the door. Professor said, "You finally came." 

"Can I have my Pokémon?!" The professor shown me a tray with three different Poke balls. I picked one up, and said, "This is the start of my ultimate adventure!"

Aron …as they turned the corner… 100WC#26

The chase.

It was the final leap to the other side of the river. I took out of my bag a shiny golden piece of rock and a crystal like rock. I slowly placed them into the hole that I dug out earlier. Suddenly I started to hear footsteps...so I quickly dug up the hole. I started to run and my heart pounded with fear... They were getting closer and closer. As they turned the corner, I leapt over the fences...and they almost caught me on the next turn. They were right behind me when I suddenly fell and my face planted the floor. "Got you!"...

PIPE SWAM GREEN CAREFULLY HORSE by Aron

It was the summer holidays. I asked grandma if I could go for a swim. Carefully I entered the pool. Suddenly, I could hear a weird noise. I swam up closer and climbed out. Then I saw it ... a horse! I came up close and carefully clambered on. Slowly I got used to it. He started to run. Getting faster, he was heading towards a green old pipe. The horse suddenly jumped. It felt like flying! After a hard landing I found myself lying right next to him. Eventually we became friends and later I found out he belongs to grandma's neighbour and he's called Chestnut.

… then when I looked out of the plane window… by Aron

I said to Tom on the phone, "I got to go, because I have to pack! We’re moving to Australia remember!" and I packed my last suitcase.

The car journey was long and boring. Finally we reached our destination, Luton Airport. The screen was showing, "Final call for gate number 103!" so we quickly got our bags and boarded the plane. We took our places. I got the best one, close to the window. The plane took off into the air. Then when I looked out of the plane window and saw that amazing view. Everything looked so small. Tiny people houses and cars, like from a fantasy world.

100WC#23 The Old Settee by Aron

I found something amazing in our forest. It was a strange settee, looking exactly like a real one, however it was all made of stone, even the tassels. On the settee, there was a realistic looking stone cat. I thought that it looks like someone put a spell on it and turned it to stone. Then I remind myself about the legend I heard when I was little. The legend says that ages ago, an evil witch lived in our forest. Because she was so horrible, people from our town killed her. After she died all her belongings turned into a stone.

100WC#22 …but it said ‘sweet’ on the wrapper…by Aron

It was finally Saturday, a lovely, sunny summer's morning. However, something strange was hanging in the air. I went down the old, murky street and a mysterious shop grabbed my attention. There was a sign stating; "Down town sweet shop, where dreams come true..." Unfortunately, the rest was too smudged to read...

I slowly entered the gloomy room. There were thousands of shelves full with old jars of varied sweets. On the fragile counter lay a jar, it was full of colourful candies. I took one and ate it...
It was salty...but it said sweet on the wrapper!?...

To be continued:

100WC#21 … the silence was deafening…

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.

Jessica

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.

Sam B

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?

Mollie

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...

Morgan

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.

Madison

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.

Jemima

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.

Grace LB

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.

Charlie

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.

Rio

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.

Aron

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.

Caitlin

The 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

100WC#20

Jessica:

The grey hyena was very lonely and miserable because he was eating his sandwich in the park with his hyena friends when he said, “I am the best hyena in all the land and also I can climb the highest mountain in all the world.” That is when all of his friends got very mad with him and walked off. He hadn't seen his friends for a week until one of them came up to him and said, “You are a horrible friend,” and then the hyena walked off without another word. From then on the hyena was very lonely.

Lily:

One day my school and I went out for a school trip. Courtney said, “So Mr. Ball where are we going?!" After a while of twiddling his thumbs Freddirick answered with, "Weren't you listening? Mr. Ball is taking us all to the zoo!" Suddenly everyone in the coach stood up screaming.

“But it is so miserable and grey outside!" answered Celia.

"Well I can't wait, until I see the hyena, I heard that hyenas laugh and can climb!" said Clarissa.

"Well I've come prepared I've got a sandwich!" shouted Bobbi. “And no climbing hyena is going to eat it ok!!"

Morgan:

One day the witch of Grey came into the town of Rainbows and Sparkle it is a magical and colourful place with happy people but the witch HATES the place! The witch was planning to make the place Miserable but failed after the power of love stopped her. She has been planning to make the town unhappy ever since and she has a plan; to dress up like them and act like them, make a sandwich for all of them that makes them angry and unhappy and take over the world with her Hyena (which was called Climb strange name) but as normal her plan failed.

Eleanor:

One day I was walking up a hill. Every day I climb it with my dad. Today I found out that there was a magical sandwich on top. Everyone knew about it that made me miserable. I was still going to climb the Grey Mountain. I got to the top layer and there was a hyena guarding it! This was a weird day. I was just going to go, but as I turned round I saw people fighting for it, so I got it. I climbed my way through the hyena and there it was.

Jemima:

After school on Tuesday, on my way home, I saw a hyena. It was grey with a little bit of brown on it, it looked really hungry. Not too soon after, I watched it climb up a hill, for a while, it was going really fast, until it was nearly at the top, when it slowed down. When it finally reached the top of the huge hill, it ran over to a very large sandwich. The hyena was miserable to see that it was very mouldy. It must have been up there for a while. The hyena was very sad.

Kieran:

Five whole years ago in south America, a grey Hyena called Josh had to climb a cliff over 500 feet to get into a club called laugh a lot. 

Josh replied “I’ll do it." Sometime later his mum made Josh a sandwich to give him hope but he just felt miserable having to climb 500 feet. The day came and Josh, his Mum and Dad and some of the club members arrived but Josh, he wasn't up to doing the climb so he shouted, "I can't do it." Consequently everybody laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed.

Olivia:

We got up one morning and we decided to go to the zoo for a family trip and so we all agreed. We got to the zoo and firstly we saw a hyena it was grey and looked very miserable so because it was miserable I gave it a sandwich to cheer it up but instead it climb the tree went crazy and attacked my sister that was very funny. Then an ambulance turned up to take her to hospital, then the zoo keeper told me off for feeding the animals. So in the end she had a broken leg.

Harvey:

In the holidays my family and I went to the zoo, it took a long time to get there and along the way one of the roads was closed so we had to go another way which added even more time to our journey. We finally arrived and the weather was not very good, the sky looked grey and miserable, we decided to have our dinner early so I ate my sandwich, while eating dinner the weather improved and we had a great time, the best bits were seeing the monkeys climb and a hyena nearly jump over the fence!

Rio:

It was a grey miserable day when I saw a hyena climb a mountain for food. 

The hyena hoped there was a nice delicious sandwich at the top of the mountain.

The hyena was extremely hungry because all the animals moved south for the winter so his food source was rationed. The hyena hoped it was a piece of meat and not jam and cheese because he doesn't like it because he’s not a vegetarian. When he got to the top of the mountain he didn’t find a sandwich he found the animals so he was even happier that day.

Aron:

It was another rainy miserable Saturday. I thought to myself. “Mmm... I will invite Kieran around." I rang him up and he agreed!

After my friend came round, my mum took us to the fossil museum! When we got through the old, grey entrance we could see... An enormous fossil of a T-Rex! There was also a big climbing wall behind it. I said, "Let's have a climb. Me and Kieran really enjoyed all the climbing, however I got very hungry, as hungry as hungry hyena. I suggested to go to Subway for a tasty sandwich. We all loved the idea.

Caitlin:

This morning I woke admiring the picture on my wall. It was of my great granddad he had climbed a mountain, I wish I could climb a mountain, but I don’t think it’s for me. So the next day I decide to do something out of this world. I was going to Africa to see the incredible animals. I packed some food and water to keep me going. I saw amazing things and animals I had never seen in my life. I felt something brush against my back, it was a grey hyena! It had taken my sandwich. It bared its teeth, I was now miserable.
