Sky-sailor

A drop of rain is 

as silent as sunlight, 

like a pocket-sized mirror. 

River-traveller. 

 

A cloud is  

as swift as a bird, 

like a bed for a dragon. 

Sky-sailor. 

 

A feather is  

as quick as a hummingbird, 

like a boat in the sky. 

Bird-skin. 

 

A star is 

as lonely as an unknown planet, 

like a burning fire. 

Night-lighter. 

 

A pearl is 

as unique as a bird, 

like the seas heart. 

Fishes’-treasure. 

6 things found in a Elf’s Knapsack

A pocket watch, which was heavily polished and encrusted with diamonds, to take me into the forgotten past or the unknown future by turning the hands.

A phoenix feather, which was speckled with gold and silver, to light up as bright as fire when I walk through the crystal caves.

A nightmare, with people’s deepest fears, to keep in a jar and to throw at the enemies when they attack.

An owl’s stealth, with its eyesight, to let me sneak around places I’m not supposed to be.

A silver ring, that’s encrusted with the rarest jewels, to make me invisible to get anywhere without being seen.

A piece of the moon, that’s as shiny as a polished medal, to let me teleport wherever I desire.

Chapter 4

While the ship was taking off, the crew were getting ready for the battle between the goblins, who just won’t go away.

The crew were preparing the weapons and shields for protection since there were going to be many tiny, bony armed trolls.

 

The goblins are green with gritted teeth with red eyes. Most are short but some are the size of a year 6 chair. They just were not friendly at all, they wanted to destroy the ship but obviously the Captain’s crew was not going to take it which is why they prepared their weapons.

 

As the crew gathered around the ship, the goblins violently entered. That’s when the goblin said; “The ship is mine now-,” It’s not!,” The Captain interrupted But then the other goblins started fighting over who’s ship it is. “Stop the ship is ours!”  (said Captain TacoBell, raising her voice)

The goblins didn’t care so grabbed all their weapons and started wrecking the ship with all sorts of weapons such as: swords, bombs, arrows and even more! The crew couldn’t do much since there was too much to deal with. 

 

The goblins destroyed most things they could see but then that’s when captain TacoBell went inside and read her goblin book which said that the ruby jem would keep the goblin away because the jem destroyed them thousands of years ago but it was too late, because Soon the ship was wrecked and the goblins ran away with the food and other stuff that caught their eyes and now they were nowhere to be seen

 

The Captain and the crew dropped their weapons and took the ship piece by piece to a clear space to fix the ship so they all gathered and fixed the ship. 

 

Are you sure the adventure isn’t over yet?..

 

To be continued…

chapter 3

Captain Tacobell was already demanding her orders, “Hey you! Help serve the food. You on table 5! Clean your table and come back.

She turned to Bella, who had only just woken up, and said, Girl over there! Go get some milk.” 

 

Weirdly, Bella ran into the kitchen. It was dark and cold, looking for the milk

Although she didn’t like the demanding orders she was given,

she was glad she was alone. 

Could Dunkey Wigglecum be alive?

 

 

Chapter 2

Over the next few weeks, the Pharona  glided through the sky. Rain and sleet pummelled the skyship and snow obscured the view from the deck.

 

 One night, they stayed up to see the ice spreading around the lakes like butter on toast. Peering down from the deck Captain Tacobell used his binoculars and a sec later… ROARR, TO THE LAND!

 

The engine quietened down and the ship began to sail through the cold breeze drifting towards the ground. Everyone crowded back to the deck to see where they landed, Vella and Bella stared towards the skyship.                                                          

 

 To one side, a small thin lake which was covered in coloured, bright shells.                              

 

“We’ll set the camp here” she exclaimed, “and  we will search for our friend tomorrow” 

 

As the shadow dipped the forest, Vella and Bella sat on a rock beside a gleaming fire, sparks flew around the sky like fireflies glowing in the dark.

 

It was then when vella thought she saw somethong

If I were invisible…

If I were invisible, oh boy there’s a lot that I would do!

First I would take full advantage of my new power by sneaking into a bakery and eating the most delicious cakes and buns! Next I would scare my brother by throwing random things around his room. Being invisible means you don’t need a ticket so I would hop on a train to my city and go on a shopping spree! Lastly I would sneak into my enemies house and wreck their room!!

Hansel and Gretel

 

Tuesday 7th March 2023

I am learning to write a suspense paragraph with complex punctuation.

 

On a dark, freezing night, a poor woodcutter and his wife had two children, who were very naughty, called Hansel and Gretel. When they were younger their mother had died; Hansel and Gretel were very sad. Soon their Father remarried but their new bad-tempered stepmother

(Brunhilda) was incredibly cruel: she tried to convince their dad to abandon his children because they had no money to feed them; she seduced and manipulated their father for attention and to get the children into trouble. “Listen, man, tomorrow take the two children, give them both a piece of bread, lead them into the thickest part in the middle of the woods, make them a fire and leave them there”, said the evil stepmother. The father refused but She was not having it. On the next rainy, stormy rain, Brunhilda had the evilest plan to get rid of Hansel and Gretel…

Chapter 2

Outside, a jagged claw of thunder exploded over the sky and lightning snarled above. Inside, Luna lurched down the deserted building, locating desperately for someplace to hide.                                                                Old timbers leaned at insane positions, decayed crates piled high and got rid of machinery piles lay dispersed, to her horror, she could just make out that there was no way out. She was trapped.  

Behind her, the unexpected man, who was bold and scary, stood brightened in the hallway, a sharp, long knife in his hand.      Luna gasped… 

…But at that short time, something growled, deeper than thunder. Out of the shadows not one but two bright red eyes appeared, a flash of brown and whitest teeth. whatever it was burst past Luna and stood between her and the man. 

It was huge. Huge and brown. Luna noticed that she was standing beside a massive bear! It threw back its slick head and growled. At that moment, the man had fled. Luna stood rooted to the spot paralysed to the spot. 

The bear turned and sat down in front of Luna resting her head on the ground. She could see that she was Wounded. A gash of red ran across her side. She  had never been so close to such a huge creature before. She could smell an earthy, musty scent and watched as her pelt of brown fur silked across her back.

 

They stared intensely at each other and Luna felt that she was sizing him up, seeing deeper and deeper into her eyes. But her fear began to vanish and she held out her hand. She leaned her head backwards and let her stroke her. Then she licked her face with her scratchy tongue.
