Harley - But they were exhausted

A boy named Tim was competing in a 10,000m run today. When he got to school he found out that the competition started at 12:00 so he got prepared just before the big event. Suddenly, Tim got pulled over to go race, this was it the 10,000m run. Just before the race someone got a colossal microphone and screamed, “On your marks, get set, go!” Tim was speeding round the corners in first place so he decided to walk the last part. After the race people told him, “You should've ran to the end!” 

He replied with, “But they were exhausted.”

Bradley - but they were exhausted

At a speed of a hyper gazelle, the incredible runners of the Olympic Games final (eight hundred metre sprint) rapidly took off the starting line to gradually reach the finish. Usain Bolt lead the race and was determined to break the world record for the fastest time around an eight hundred metre track. Not far behind was Johan Blake, just trying to impress his loving family at home. Watching Usain made it look easy and that anyone at an average running speed could do it. When they eventually crossed the line, they were celebrating like mad but they were exhausted... 

Kaitlin - but they were exhausted

Running as fast as they could, Emma and Lulu were being chased by the school’s meanest, biggest bullies, Bob and Bill (who are twins). “Go into the paper shop around the corner,” Emma said anxiously hoping they won’t find them in there. Quickly, they ran into the shop trying to get their breath back. The coast was clear, they needed to go but they were exhausted. Suddenly, the huge, creaking door began to open, and then Bob and Bill stormed into the shop. They began to search to see if the girls were there, and then they found the girls...

"JOHNNY! You cheated I am the ultimate champion on bowling."

"Says who?"

"SAYS ME! I demand a rematch!"

"No."

"Only because you know this time I will win. So there."

"I guess we're going home then because you are a wimp aren’t you?"

"Fine!" Lucy inserted her last pound coin and played.

A few minutes later, "HOW? HOW? This isn't possible you’re a.... a..... a..... CHEAT."

Before Johnny could react everybody in the whole arcade was staring at him. "NO I’M NOT!" he said as he stormed off to the toilet as laughter raged.

"I'm sorry wanna go get ice cream?" Lucy asked when he came out.

"Yeah," he replied but they were exhausted.

Jessica - but they were exhausted

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve. Everybody is having fun and the Christmas tree lights are shining bright. Christmas carols are being sung while others get ready for Santa. Families come home and strangers make new friends. The last door on your advent calendar has now been opened, now it's time for Santa. As the excitement builds snow starts to fall. Candles are lit and fires are blown out. Mince pies are put in the oven and the Christmas cake is being iced - it had to be done by Christmas Day but they were exhausted...

Julia - but they were exhausted

It felt as if I was running for eternity. The hostile forest seemed to be getting even more threatening. I did not expect wolves to chase me forever! I ran and ran, as fast as my strained legs could carry me.

The vicious beasts howled and would never stop. Their teeth were as sharp as knives sticking out from their yapping jaws. But they were exhausted. I hoped to hide somewhere where they couldn’t find me.

Then I heard the soft, sniffing sound which filled my heart with horror.

A furry head lurked behind a nearby tree, glaring at me menacingly.

George - but they were exhausted

The two men were working on a diabolical plan to ruin Christmas. Their names were John and Mark. Their plan was that they would break Santa’s sleigh preventing him delivering any presents. They repeatedly bashed the vehicle with a hammer. Nothing happened. They were going to get a chainsaw but they were exhausted after all that hammering. They headed back to their old-fashioned bungalow. The crime was reported to the police who put up wanted posters of the pair. The nefarious criminals were found and punished with a 100-year prison sentence. Santa was able to deliver presents once again.

My family were looking after our friends’ pug dogs and I was excited as I love them. I was promised that when they returned I could take them for a walk before they went home. While waiting for them, I played with the pugs with their toys and they followed me around the house. When our friends came back I rushed to get the dog leads to go for a walk, but they were exhausted and didn’t want to move from their beds they just wanted to sleep. I was so disappointed, but had spent an amazing time with them!

Madi - but they were exhausted

It was an ordinary day, sat on the couch, and I was watching the TV. I was watching the show, ‘I’m a celebrity, get me out of here!’ It was quite extraordinary because they were doing this challenge but they were exhausted. I mean, I would never carry on doing a challenge if I was exhausted! Anyway, the challenge was to go in a boat full of deadly beasts, [filled with water] and get 11 stars. It looked very scary, but they had to do it if they wanted to give food to the camp down in the jungle.

Lilly-Ella - but they were exhausted

On Wednesday morning just after the tough 10k run Rita, Paul and Lollie were supposed to go to the town school to entertain the children at their Christmas party (unlike other schools they have their Christmas party together) but they were exhausted!

Should they just not go?

That is what Lollie and Paul wanted to do, but Rita said, “No! We are going because if we don’t who will entertain the children?”

Paul and Lollie agreed with this - they knew they couldn’t let children down, especially because they had promised and they couldn’t just break a promise...
