Prologue-Gracie

You’ve probably had amazing journeys on a sky ship. In summer, you might have had an amazing holiday, soaring high through the sky at the back of the boat, as well as spend a lot of time with your family. You also might of went under water fishing and caught some fish. When you flew you might of saw dolphins jumping over the waves like they are mountains. When you flew, you might of saw boats heading to magic islands. You probably drifted over the waves as you waved at the hikers hiking on the tall mountains. Travelling by skyship in the summer is like that.

However, travelling on an expedition to unknown lands can be more dangerous than you think. You should try a skyship journey when Skull Dragons get on the ship. Everyone thinks Skull Dragons are these cute animals that can’t do any harm. Well they were wrong. You should try staying calm and don’t panic, if you do this will make the Skull Dragon annoyed and irritated. You should try giving it everything it wants like you’re a guard and the Skull Dragon is the prince/princess. Never be picky, no-one knows what the Skull Dragon can do to you.

Chapter 1

The crowds cheered as the skyship million rose up into the sky and stood waiting for the engines to take its first roaring breath. Captain Grog waved at the below crowd as she turned the steering wheel heading up north. They were off!

Tom and Tia glared down as the ship left the crowds of people huddling to see the final glances of the skyship million. Tiny specks lit up Tia’s eyes as they went further into the sky. The millionaire skyship. flew over the patches of grass that I’ve been left by the horses raging at the sound of the skyship. What looked like a new world, blue clear seas were all they could find underneath them. Within an hour, the millionaire sky ship was cruising above the town centre. Far below, Tom saw specs of people walking underneath them, enjoying the the warm sunny day, Tia sighed

“I wonder if we will find the Nowhere Emporium shop.” She said talkatively. That night, the weather changed. Hail had been whipped across houses, making a silent but loud crash down below. Wind made the sky ship, angry too angry that the skyship couldn’t go in a straight line. Nobody had hoped that they would even get where they wanted to. Tom could see dim lights and sailboats drifting upon the sea.

Chapter 2

Over the next few weeks, the Skyship Million cruised through the sky. Above, clouds of dark shot Tia’s arms with goose bumps as she tried to find a jacket. Torrential rain had battered the ship, leaving an unaccountable number of holes that had found a new home. To one side, wind tugged Tia’s hair away from her. On the other side Tom sat peacefully looking at the tiny specks of land and felt like a shield had come over to protect him.

Tia hurried Captain Grog, wondering when they were going to get there. But on the other hand, Tom nervously sat by Captain Grog, praying for her to slow down. ​

“Hold on guys we’re going down,” said Captain Grog pressing buttons to go faster. Looking down from the ship, Tia budged Tom over so she could get a better view.

“I wonder if the dead explorer is going to be here,” Tia said excited.

Tom smiled trying to hide the fact that he did not want to do this. He was confused how Tia and Captain Grog didn’t understand that if someone did die here then it’s not safe! They landed with a thump.

Tia squeezed Captain Grog’s hand as her face went red. She ran over to the centre of the island whilst sand kicked up her legs. Captain Grog and Tom walked over slowly.

“Hurry up! Or I am going to leave you guys behind,” Tia yelled heading towards a boat and an abandoned cave which she could just about fit in. They had arrived.

Tia peered over the side of the boat.

“Look, a dirty cloth with fresh tomato sauce on it!” said Tia smiling with shock.

“Captain Grog you should have said I would of bought chips.” Said Tia as she carried on saying words that they could just about hear. Captain Grog and Tom look at each other confused as they ran over to get a closer look. They both new what they were looking at. Bl- just as they were about to say, what was in the boat on the cloth, they discovered two letters. GR.

“Lets set up here,” Captain Grog called, we need to go to bed soon so we can a fun day tomorrow searching for clues about the letters GR.” Its going to be so fun all of us going on a mysterious adventure to find clues like a movie.

“Cool I have always wanted to be in a movie,” Tia said nearly exploding with excitement.

Tom woke with a start, footsteps had entered his mind. A shadow of an adult stood outside. A loud bang made him turn his head like a owl. Nobody else was awake. He felt like he was asleep on top of a iceberg. But he knew he wasn’t. He was in the middle of the field with no protection of anything outside. He sat up imagining the worst. He felt a ball of fizz rolling around his mind. He stood up and let out a scream of words that woke Captain Grog and Tom up he fell back into his bed. Not knowing it was a dream.
