The Great Escape

Chapter One

The Gorms attack

Three children Popkin, Pasco and Baby Pip are getting dragged up the stairs and into the bedroom by Aunt Patrica. “Why are you taking us into the bedroom?” exclaimed Popkin “Father is being attacked.” The children listened to the chaos outside, terrified for their family, while Aunt Patrica wasn’t worried and looked for something. A few minutes later she pulled out something covered in a Christmas cloth and handed it to Popkin. He unwrapped it and inside was a magical sword, it had a note on it. “This magical sword can cut through anything apart from iron. Gorms are iron, head to toe.” Pasco mentioned.

Aunt Patrica tried to push them under the bed as they kicked off because they needed to help the warren, not run away from it. While Baby Pip relentlessly cries for his mother, they could hear the terror-stricking of Gorm’s footsteps getting closer. The three all fell into the tunnel.

They looked at the amazing brick walls and all the different routes and directions. There was no lighting, no sound, just the darkness. Multiple of the forty two thousand routes were dead ends. Pop and Pas decided to stop for the time being and have a sleep. Popkin woke up and went looking for a shimmer of light, then came back hopeless. “Hang on, where have Pip and Pas gone?” Popkin said bewildered. He continued to look. “AHH” he screamed “AHH” goes another voice. “We’ve been looking for you for ages and why did you run off!” They all went back to sleep but little do they know, the Gorms are ripping and moving everything in the house…

Chapter Two

The journey continues

They ran out into deadman’s forest to find a little trail of iron. Popkin followed the eiron until Pasco told him to continue straight. He went left while Pas and Pip went straight. Later they both met and stopped for a rest, robotic, iron crows got louder as more came along. They set off to find a Warren-Inn.

At the warren you could hear the calming tweeting of exotic birds. Pop and Pas took Pip over to the playground while they watched the trees sway in the wind. All three of them went into the warren-restaurant for some food as none of them had eaten for a day! Pas heard crows, she knew they had to escape. More and more crows came along and followed all the way. All of a sudden, they heard footsteps of hungry beasts which got louder and louder… 

Chapter Three

Captured

Pop and Pas sat down to have some tea as they were cold. Pas looked how tidy it was until she saw a Gorm helmet lying against the wall. She nudged Pop although he didn’t understand. “We’ve got to go, now” Pasco whispered . They walked out the door and then ran as fast as their little rabbit legs could take them.

The three escaped the warren all worn out. “Lets have a break” Popkin muttered. Later on, they heard footsteps. Quickly, Pop dashed out as being as scared as a spider about to get trodden on. Bang! Popkin tripped over a tree root and his head went rolling along the floor. Pasco picked it up and got some spider webs off of a tree to stick it back on. As they were about to go, a big shadow appeared from behind them until everything went black.

Popkin and Pasco woke up telling each other that bruises covered their faces. A few minutes later Pasco realised she was restricted to move and then noticed that her and her brothers were trapped in a submarine with the Gorm leader (Scramashank.)

Chapter Four

The great escape

The gorm followed them out of the submarine. All three of them were surrounded by magma and the gorm. In a blink of an eye all the gorm were gone. “W-w-where did they go?” Pip mumbled.

 ARH ARH, something cried from above. “Run!” Popkin shouted. A big shadow appeared over them. The children looked up and screamed, it landed right in front of them like it was trying to guard them. Pasco felt the dragon only to feel rocks. “Ow” she moaned, “that burned my hand.” You could hear more of the dragons coming and then the loud echo of gorm footsteps

“Run the gorm have guns.” The magma dragons made a big shield while shooting fire. One by one the gorm got blown away. Scramashank put up a battle with all his layers of iron but they managed to burn all of it away.
