Beeamander chapter 4

Chapter 4

 

I’m going to escape through the back but it’s all rock and rubble. The black and yellow egg shines and I notice that the fur is beginning to stand up. But now I see there is no way out! But then I hear something Sour is talking in a serene calming voice. “Don’t worry we won’t hurt you.” she exclaims. Taking a few tiptoes forward. I can hear that she’s taking deep breaths to keep calm.

 

The Beeamander ceases still and lowers itself. Its black eyes watching our every move. “we’ re not here to harm you or anyone. We want to help you.” Sour shows her hands open to show that she is of no harm. They both stand there and gaze at each other. I think It’s starting to understand . It does a calming snarl;it begins to land. I think it’s working. Sour is talking to it and it understands.

 

“We’ll be on our way now” Sour utters as we step to the other side of the wall and at the same time we speed walk past this creature. Uts eyes locked onto us and inside I see a hive of bees, the buzz of them are like little fireworks It nods to us flaps its wings and goes to keep its egg safe

 

Outside, I sigh with relief and sit down ro take a deep breath. Inside Beeamander sits to rest with its precious egg.

 

The fog is beginning to rise. The glimmering moon lights up the cliff and the stars like buttons in the night sky. The sea reflects all the light on us. The town is as silent as an abandoned city. We stride back across the flood wall and chat. We need to protect the fuzzy egg and the Beeamander. Sour swiftly talks at fifty miles per hour about what we should do Sour is splurting out ideas. What if we block the cave with rocks. What if we move the egg to a safer spot so no one can find it. I listen to her impossible ideas. Her face red with frustration.

 

By the time we get to town, everyone is nearly ready for business. The sun rising past the horizon. It now causes shadows over us. Mr Haddocks boat rental is opening and he is polishing his magnificent boats. He waves and gives us a joyful grin. Sams ice cream trucks windows are opening and hes making people whippy. Mrs Isabelle is opening the windows of her tourist shop. Shes putting out her Beeamander magnets and her surfboards of every style. Once we get to the visitors centre, the city commotion has begun. People push past us on the way to the seafront.

 

I scrabble around in my pocket for my keys and fiddle with the door. I look at the poster of the Beeamander and i think will hatch safely.

 

Sour stands next to me and points at the black and yellow glass. Some are lightly glowing. She looks at it with a look of confusion. I think we are thinking of the same thing.

 

All morning Sour is stuck in town library, looking through the old logs that have been wrote about paradise-by sea. She has found an old captain log from 1731. It is a boat log about an old fishing ship that caught what they thought was an old rock that was fuzzy with black and yellow stripes that sometimes glowed. That night they were attacked and the egg rolled off the ship. They said that night they were attacked by the demon’s pet. Now all fishermen have said to kill the mander.

 

We think this is never going to end as it’s just the beginning…

Chapter 4

Chapter 4

I start to run but there’s nowhere to hide. The egg illuminates and I notice that it’s covered in shiny white pearls. Then violet starts talking in a low calming voice. “Its OK” she says stepping forward. I can tell she is trying to act brave to try and hide her fear.

 

The seadragonamander stops and tilts his head to the side. Its eyes, which are as green as emeralds, are fixed on us. “We’re not going to hurt you or egg. We will protect you.” Violet holds out her hands to show the seadragonamander she’s not going to hurt them. It seems to be listening. It gives a low scratch; the spikes on its back fold down. It’s working. Violet is talking to the catamander and its working.

 

“Let’s go now,” Violet says. We walk past the seadragonamander. Its green eyes lock with mine in them i can see the depths of the ocean, colorful coral in the bottom of the sea and the glitter of so many tiny, golden sparks of life. It bows its head as we walk past safely.

 

Outside, I take a deep breath and sigh with relief. Inside, the seadragonamander protects its egg in the nest.

 

The mist is cleared the moon is shining down on the beach lighting up the crystal clear waters. All is still. We walk back towards the promenade and talk. No one must find the cave. NO one must find the seadragonamander and its egg. Violet comes up with an idea-pretend there was a coastal erosion and report it to the council. Get signs up banning people from coming on the beach and then we can-i cut her off by saying “OK, ok i get what trying to say.”

 

By the time we are walking through the town, it is awakening. The sun is rising above the sea. The people are putting up there stalls. Bob is putting out deck chairs-beacause it looks like it’s a nice day today-He waves to us with a cheery grin. Barry’s OH MY COD! Fish and chip shop has opened, I can smell frying as i walk past. As we got to my shop the morning traffic has begun. Cars drift past us on the way to the new theme park which has the best rides in.

 

I fiddle with the keys and push the door open. Inside, it is peaceful and quite. Soon it is going to be packed.

As i put the sign outside, my heart hurts, my mind races. Will the seadragonamander’s egg hatch safely? Will we be able to keep them safe?

 

Violet wanders off to look at ‘beachcombing showcase’ I stand next to her and she points at fragments of sea glass. And she has found some that are red. Red, speckled with green. We lock eyes thinking the same thing.

 

All day violet has been reading ancient logs and records. She finds a captains log written in 1656 It is the story of a pirates treasure hunt.

Snakemander continued

Snakemander continued…

Chapter 4 

 

I try to drag Lilly out but the snakemanders body is covering the way out.The diamond egg was glowing. It was so bright it almost blinded me. The snakemander hisses.        “ Your ok,” Lilly whispers “ I’m not here to hurt you.” I can tell Lilly was trying to hide her fear.

 

The snakemander turns his head quickly.The snakemanders eyes were bright red. It lets out a whimper.” Don’t be scared we won’t hurt you.” says Lilly being reassuring. I turn and look at Lilly. She looks back at me.She holds out her arms.The snakemander goes closer to Lilly. Every movement she makes he copies.

 

“OK follow me” says Lilly walking backwards to make sure the snakemander is following her. They get out of the cave and the snakemander tries to bow for her.

 

I sigh with relief.The snakemander goes back into its cave to keep the diamond egg safe.

 

It is dawn, I haven’t talked to Lilly at all.There is no noise at all other than the sound of the waves. “ We can’t keep being quiet. What is wrong? Asks Lilly. “ You put us both in danger just then anything could’ve happened. The snakemander could’ve killed us”.I shout. “But it didn’t.” Lilly exclaims. I roll my eyes. Lilly just goes on and on about how we can’t tell anyone. We come up with a plan. Some people know about the snakemander so we just need to tell everyone to keep them off the beach so he doesn’t get disturbed.

 

By the time we are almost back, we see Mandy setting up chairs out the front of The Steamin Mugs Cafe.We tell everyone we see about the snakemander and stick posters on every shop window and lampposts.At the end of the day, Lilly and I already given out 5000 posters. “ Do you think this will keep everyone off the beach?” asks Lilly. “ Hopefully I reply.

 

I look for my keys, to open up my Sweet Shop Galore, I get  all of the sweets and into the storage cupboard. . I install curtains to make it dark. “ What is this for?” asks Lilly. “ Wait and see.” I say.

 

I go out, back to where the snakemander lives. Lilly sneaks out and follows me. I catch a glimpse of Lilly. “ What are you doing here?” I shout. “ Wondering what you were doing,” she replies. “I’m getting the snakemander and its egg to my shop so that it is safe.” I exclaim.

 

They get to the end where the snakemander lives and sees a man. “ Umm… Hello!” Violet and I say at the same time. “Oh hello Lilly and Joy,” Says the anonymous man.” How do you know our names and who are you?” Questions Lilly. “ I made the snakemander. Have you not thought about how he attacked Lilly and is now being nice to her.Oh and my name is Lenny Reinhart. “That is my last name, are you my dad?”asks Lilly. “Yes,” says Lenny.

 

Later they talk.Our adventure isn’t over. It will go on.

chapter 4

Dragonmander,continued…

 

Chapter 4:

 

I’m ready to dart out of there but I couldn’t as my back  faced the end of the cave. The egg glowed a bright gold and small,red specks covered the top of it. But we are both cornered! That’s when Violet steps forward and speaks softly.”It’s all right”, she speaks, holding her hands out showing no threat. I can tell she is trying to mask her fear. 

 

The Dragonmander stopped and bowed its head.It’s soulless eyes stared at me and Violet. “We’re not going to hurt you nor your egg. We’ll help you”, Violet says, glancing at me. The dragonmander seems to be paying attention. Its claws disappear and back lowered. I think it’s working. 

 

We’re going to leave now”, I say walking past the dragonmander as it backs off. The monster looks at me from the comfort of its nest, its eyes lower as it falls asleep. 

 

Outside, we take a deep breath as the cold, sea air brushes our faces. Inside, we can hear the dragonmander shuffle around in its nest, making the egg warm and cosy. 

 

The fog died down. The moon peering at the sea and stars dazzling in the dark night. All is silent, deathly still. We talk along the sandy beach back towards the museum, talking about what just happened. No one should know about the cave. Violet talks hastily, thinking of ideas and answers quicker than a calculator. “We could pretend to be the council saying there’s been a rock fall! Or it’s unsafe to walk along,” she went on. 

 

By the time we got back to town, it was early hours and people awoke. The sun gets higher over the skyline. Miss Lee was opening her bakery, sweet smelling pastry wafted through the air. Mr Cane was setting up his stool full of beach equipment; scattered and hung on the table and floor.  Cars slithered along the roads, driving to places or home. 

 

I pushed the door open, dropping the key on the floor on the way in. But! Will the Dragonmanders egg hatch safely? Will it be kept safe from prying eyes? Violet strolls over to my collection of “beachcombing”. I hover next to her as she points to some sea glass. We looked at each other, eyes wide as we both gasped. The sea glass looked just like the Dragonmander’s egg. 

 

Violet has been reading books all day, mostly ancient stories, diaries of dead sailors and records. She stumbled across a diary involving a golden egg and the devil’s pet. They say they barely catched the monster and threw it into the sea. 

 

That late night, we chattered. Our adventure hasn’t ended after all! It has only just begun. 

chapeter 4 pamdamanda

Pandamander, continued…

Chapter 4 

I’m ready to turn and run but when I shuffle back more I feel my back hairs twitch like there was a wall, when I turned to see there was. We were cornered with nowhere to go. She chucked the egg back to me. 

She showed her hand then the Pandamander wanted to see my hands so he would not do anything. Then he saw the egg she had stolen! He charged towards us and jumped on us knocking us out cold laying on the floor.  

Next thing I knew I was laying in a cage, Scarlet was next to me then the Pandamander had woken us up and we said we were leaving. I was so happy to get home and eat, drink and sleep normally again. 

Then his eyes turned green like an egg. I’m calm now. She shoved the egg towards us implying that we should have it. We went to pick it up and she let us go with a warning . Inside, she was starting to settle on the eggs. Outside, we were running as fast as we could. 

The mist had cleared. A bright moon light and the beach lay in the dark night as the moon glided along. It had its one little reflection in the water. All the water was still. We walked along the promenade,  there was no talking from her or me at this point as she was just looking down. I wouldn’t talk to her any way she nearly got us killed. That’s the part I’m not happy about but.  Scarlet and I were all alright after 2 seconds of being away from the cave we said to each other no one must have found the cave no one must have found the pandamander. She had some wacky ideas such as putting banners up about the pander (or should I say big pander).

By the time we had walked through the town, it was waiting.  The sun still edges over the sea. It has casted a shadow over the oozing mud off from the sand. Sand- me- go are already putting out the deck chairs it looked like its going to be a lovely day for a change. He said hey to us with a cheesy grin. A corner caffeine shop was opening. Miss Bucket was putting her buckets and spades out by the stall then she pulled out the stand for the baby hats, the board , colouring packs for little ones. Morning traffic had already begun. Cars had swished past us to go to the sea front. 

I shuffle the keys into the lock. I knew it would be bluffing in half an hour. It was calm inside and I heard the thumps of the boss coming down the stairs so I quickly grabbed the spray and cloth and said “Morning sir I have been with this girl all morning she has helped me.”

All day she had her nose in a book about the ancient  she found a captain log Wright from then 9010 it’s a story about a girl who got lost at sea that she found a box, some seashells, smooth rocks and a pot they kill every part of the mallamander they see from now on. 

That evening, we walked along the beach wondering whether or not our journey had just begun.     

 

chapter 4

Chapter 4

 

Peppa stepped forward calmly and spoke in a soft voice, “it’s ok we’re not here to hurt you or your egg!” The Humanders eyes turned from red to green whilst I thought to myself this is working. The creature gazed wearily at us. Eventually its gaze softened  and it slowly crept towards us.

 

“We’re leaving now,” said Peppa, trying to keep her brave voice on. We walked past it hoping it wouldn’t pounce on us. We made it outside and as I got out me and the Humander made eye contact. We were relieved that we made it out safely!

 

Outside, I take a long breath and a sigh with comfort. Inside, we hear the humander shuffle to its nest.

 

The mist vanished. The blazing moon light and the shining stars that lit up the sky. We walked back to the shack and we began to chat. No one must go into the forbidden forest where the cave is. We need to find an excuse to ban people going up there “i have an idea!” Peppa excitedly said. We pretend there was a crash, banning people from going up there.

 

By the time we got to my shack the sun started to arise. So instead of going to sleep  we put up some deckchairs even though we were exhausted. After 5 hours we got invited to a free dinner at Shanes eerie cafe. We also got given a free umbrella because we didn’t have one. We went to the arcade by the time we got out, traffic began.

 

I fumbled with the keys to the shack, it was nice and warm and the fire was still crackling. I wonder if the egg is gonna hatch safely? Will it live?

 

Peppa sauntered to the ‘showcase of beach-combining’. I stand by her wobbly fingers pointed towards a red speckled with gold. We both looked at it and we both saw the same thing.

 

All day, Peppa stuck her nose in books, records ancient logs. It was a story about a red gem that looked like an egg. They kept the rock till it disappeared by the vicios humander.

 

Chapter 4 by Liam

Sea Serpent continued..

Chapter 4

I was about to run back but the cobble wall was blocking my path.”It’s ok”he said in a calming voice stepping forwards.He put his hands up to show no threat.

The Sea Serpent looked happy but we was still not sure.Noah walked up to the sea serpent and started to stroke it.”We good?”he asked and the way it was looking we took it as a yes.I was surprised it was even working.

“Lets go.”I said”But we don’t know how to get out” he said looking at the Sea Serpent.It started to walk away.Noah followed the creature.When I catched up we were at the exit!When Noah said goodbye we walked back home.

Outside,l sighed in relief.Inside we hear the Sea Serpent going back to its nest.

The fog had cleared.The shining stars reflected in the sea.We walked back to the fish and chip shop discussing on how to keep the Sea Serpent safe.No one can find the cave.No one can find the Sea Serpent.

While we were walking through town,daylight shined over the town.Oliver changed the closed sign to an open sign while giving us a wave.Aura was putting up tables and chairs for her hot dog stand.Herey put umbrellas and coats for his corner shop.

I fiddle with the keys and opened the door.It was warm and quiet.but before you know it will be back full of people.

Noah walks over to the ‘showcase of volleyball’.I stand beside him and he points to fragments of glass.He saw something purple.Purple,speckled with red.We look at eachother,thinking the same thing.

All night,Noah had been reading books,ancient logs and records.He found a log made by a captain.It was about a crew that found a purple with red speckled around it.Then a snake like creature attacked and they want to kill it ever since.

That evening,we talked.Our adventure only just started.

Chapter 4

I’m ready to launch myself to the back of the cave but that would get me nowhere. The baby moves around and I notice it’s beauty. Eyes the size of saucers stare at me. I stare in awe but I start to hear a sweet, soothing voice. I look up to see Amy, “Hey it’s okay, we are not here to harm you or your baby.” I think to myself, she is really talking to the Pandamander!

 

The Pandamander tilts it’s head to one side and automatically sits down like Amethyst is about to tell some amazing adventure story. “We’ll protect you,” Amy says softly. The Pandamander seems to be listening. I slowly come out from behind my rock. I wonder, will it let us free?

 

“We are going home now. Stay safe.” The Pandamander steps to one side allowing us to go through the tunnel. I warn Amethyst that we can’t run, we will just be chased. The Pandamander bows it’s head as if it was trying to say bye. Safe at last.

 

Outside I take a long deep breath and a sigh of relief. Inside I can hear the Pandamander scurrying back to it’s nest.

 

The mist cleared. I could now make out the way home. A bright moon hangs high above us and stars stud the inky sky. Their reflections sparkle in the deep sea. All is still. We can’t allow anyone to find the Pandamander or it’s baby. Amethyst rapidly talks about how to keep the precious Pandamander safe. She is full of ideas. Tell the council that bamboo fell down in the bamboo forest. Get more signs up banning the cliffs, the bamboo forest, or even the abandoned arcade.

 

By the time we reach the city, nearly everyone was awake. The sun creeps over the sea. It casts shadows along the pier. Maria drove her ice-cream van towards the theatre. She looked over and gently smiled. Zack’s gift shop was opening up. He stood behind the counter and served anyone who came in with a cheerful smile. Miss Mango was setting up deckchairs on the soft sand. By the time we get to the theatre, cars make their way towards the car park to flood the pier.

 

I fiddle with the keys and swing the door open, it’s cool and noisy. Soon it would become the noise of an elephant stampede. As I open the little cubby-hole door, I wonder, will the Pandamander and her baby be found by anyone else? Is the Pandamander only friends with me and Amy?

 

Amethyst wanders over to the window. I stand beside her and she points to which look like fragments of the baby Pandamander’s egg shell. We look at each other, both thinking the same thought.

 

The never-ending day carries on. After every performance, I find Amy looking through books, ancient logs and records. She looks at this old, tattered leather coating, wrapped around a mysterious book. It’s the diary I bought when I was younger. I never read it though. Amy finds an entry. It has pictures of what looks like the Pandamander standing next to the writing. It says that Captain Berry, an old sailor, spotted an egg that was mint green. He grabbed it and sailed off but every night he thought he was being watched. Soon after that, the ship was attacked by the devils panda. Ever since then, sailors and fishermen threaten to find the creature and kill it. 

 

That evening we read the book over and over again (eyeing the pictures) trying to see if we missed anything. This isn’t the end. The story just begun…

Chapter 4

I’m ready to run but there was only the end of the pitch black cave facing my unbelievable face.The stripy black and yellow stripes with red blood dripping down.Ellie steps forward hoping not to get eten.I could hear that she was trying to still down the mander and hide her fears. Hush hush now it’s “OK” in a nice spoofing voice not here to hurt you or your egg i’m here to get your trust and keep you and your egg safe.

 

The beeamander pauses and steps forward with a low soft soft buzz. Its black and red eyes slowly turned greeny blue colour and walked over to its egg. I realised it’s not a bad creacher after all.

 

“Where leaving now” says Ellie slowly stepping to the side and together we walked to safety at last and the mander closed its eyes and went to sleep.

 

Outside I took a deep breath and sigh with relief.inside i felt bad for the mander but inside i was happy to save the mander.

 

The mist has cleared a bright moon, eyes the beach and stars stu the dark sky there reflections speckle the sea.

 

By the time we are walking through the town it is wakining the sun edges over the sea. It casts shadows across the sands. Kevin-be- amazing is putting up some toys for little kids and ice creams to enjoy it. Look if it might be a beautiful day for once he waves at us with a cheesy grin.

 

I fumble with my front-door-keys and kick the door open. Inside it was cold and smelt like rotten fish and we found a note with captain red birds hand writing.

 

Ellie wanders over to look at the old rusty pictures of him and two other people.

All day Ellie has her nose tucked in a book absent logs and records.      

      

Chapter 4 of the ratmander

 

I couldn’t escape it, Jeff began to speak to it calmly as he hid his fear. I stopped running in circles and listened.“It’s alright.” Jeff said in a trusting voice to the ratmander. Jeff slowly got closer.

 

The ratmander lowered it’s head down and looked at us. “We are not going  to hurt you or your egg.” Jeff said. The ratmander squealed,Jeff turned to me and said “It’s working!”

 

“We are going to leave now.” Jeff said, the ratmander moved out the way and let us out. Me and the ratmander locked eyes as I walked out with Jeff. 

 

Outside I took a deep breath and the ratmander was sat beside the egg, I knew we were finally safe. 

 

It wasn’t so misty anymore. The moon was glowing with the stars shining around it. Nobody should find the ratmander and it’s beautiful egg. Jeff started talking about what to do. “What should we do? Let’s put up signs or tell the cancel that it’s unsafe.”

 

But by the time we got to town the sun was rising and jerold-go-unlucky was putting up a table with deck chairs on the beach as it looked like a good day and daisy’s corner cafe was opened for the first time in months. Mrs yellow put out the buckets and spades that she wants to sell. The parking lot began to fill up. 

 

I struggled with the key but opened the door. It was quiet and peaceful. It won’t be once I open the arcade, then it popped into my mind will the ratmanders egg be safe?

 

Jeff walks up to a piece of blue and white sea glass. Like the one that was in the ratmanders cave.
