    As he looked into the mirror he was frowning but his reflection was smiling. He thought he was dreaming so he went to go to touch the mirror hoping to feel the coldness of it but instead of feeling the coldness he felt nothing and just fell through it…

    When he got through it he could see the phenomenal place ever in his own life. He saw the trees dancing like crazy he thought they were having the time of there life’s. Then he saw something like a lizard so he followed it.

    1. Well done Matthew this is a great dilemma. Next time just add some more similes and metaphors and personification. From Evie.P 🙂

    2. I like the personification that you used Matthew. 2tp. Next step, :mrgreen: try to re-read your sentences. Some of your sentences are actually two simple sentences, so remember to add punctuation. Can you spot them?

      1. Great work Matthew, try next time to use some description about the mirror, if you haven’t in your build up. But other wise great! 🙂 from Mercedes

        When he got through it he could see the phenomenal place ever in his own life. He saw the trees dancing like crazy he thought they were having the time of there life’s. Then he saw something like a lizard so he followed it. The lizard whispered “This is the land of colours.”
        ” Wow it’s amazing!” Replied Yanis happily ” Oh yeh by the way i’am Yanis. What’s your name.”
        ” My name is Cannon are you new to this place.” Replied cannon
        ” yes I am.” Whispered Yanis ” I guess you’ve been here for a while.”
        ” Yes I’ve been here for five years” said cannon ” There is one bad thing about this place there is a fire queen who is very evil.”
        ” That sounds fiery.” Whispered Yanis.

        All of a sudden the ground began to shake. “Ahhhhhhhhh run for your lives.” Shouted cannon ” It’s the fire queen she’s knows we’re here and she’s on to us.” So they ran and ran until it was to late…
        The fire queen jumped out in front of them. She said to them ” Well,well,well look who we have here? cannon and his little friend.”
        ” What do you want with us you ugly looking person.” Shouted Yanis
        ” Yea what do you want with us.” Shouted cannon
        ” I want your friend to come with me to my castle.” Said the fire queen
        ” ok.” Said Yanis
        “Let’s go then.” She said

        A couple of hours later they got to the castle of the fire queen. She took Yanis to her fire dungeon and loked him up.

    3. WOW! I really enjoyed reading that Matthew. Next time, you could try and use a few more complex sentences! Otherwise great! from Tiffany! 🙂

        1. COOL! I loved reading it. Next time try and add a few more adjectives, otherwise it’s awesome! From Mercedes 🙂

  2. Dillema By Pollyanna

    Rosey awoke in a forist. It was dark and the trees seemed to surround her. She got up and sat by a rather large tree. She looked around. The forist was cold and it didn’t take long for Rosey to relise it was night. Rosey was scared she couldn’t here a thing the forist was silent she could only here the leefs rustling in the wind.

    Suddenly a shadow approached Rosey ran to the dor but it was locked so she hid behind the nearest tree hoping that the charicter hadn’t seen her.

    1. This is very exciting writing Pollyanna. 2tp. Next step, :mrgreen: you have missed out 3 full stops. Can you find where they need to go? Try to use powerful verbs (ran – dashed) (walk – crept).

        Dilemma

        Rosy awoke in a forest. It was dark and the trees seemed to surround her. She got up and sat by a rather large tree. She looked around. The forest was cold and it didn’t take long for Rosy to relies it
        was night. Rosy was scared she couldn’t here a thing the forest was silent she could only here the leafs rustling in the wind.

        Suddenly a shadow approached Rosy ran to the door but it was locked so she hid behind the
        nearest tree hoping that the character hadn’t seen her. The footsteps grew louder and louder. Who is it? She thought to herself. In a few seconds the characters hand reached out and took hold oh her hand “it’s ok don’t be scared” she said. “My name is Harriet”.”hello Harriet” said Rosy.

        Harriet and Rosy where walking through the forest . The ground shook. “What’s happening Harriet?” cried Rosy. “I will tell you later”cried Harriet. A minuet later a figure approached. Before Rosy could say another word the figure grabbed Rosy and flew off “help!”screamed Rosy.

    2. Great Pollyanna, it really gave me a picture of what the setting looked like! Well done! From Mercedes 🙂

    Dilemma

    After a few minutes, Roxy found herself in a mysterious place that she had never seen before. She looked around, trying to see if she could recognise the place. But Roxy didn’t now were she was. The sky was as dark as a dark thunder cloud. The forest trees covered Roxy’s head! The trees sang in the whaling wind. Roxy thought to herself “I wonder were I am. This place is so weird!” Suddenly a formula voice came out of nowhere! “What was that!” Said Roxy. Roxy wasn’t in the mood for exploring so she kept on trying to find out we’re she was.

    Later that day Roxy jumped with shock. She herd the sound of twigs snapping. Roxy hid behind a big log that was to big to carry. Then Roxy held her breath! Would she survive or not? Later that day, Roxy had a little peep to see who is there.

    1. Wow! Chloe this is a superb piece of writing. 2tp. I really like that you have used dramatic sentences and you even included a question to excite the reader! Next step, :mrgreen: try to avoid using the same time connectives. Also, try to include some powerful verbs (crept, leapt).

But Roxy didn’t now were she was. The sky was as dark as a dark thunder cloud. The forest trees covered Roxy’s head. The trees sang in the whaling wind. Roxy thought to herself “I wonder were I am.

        Later that day Roxy jumped with shock. She herd the sound of twigs snapping near her. So Roxy crept behind a big log that was to heavy to put somewhere else in this mysterious land. Then Roxy held her breath when she was behind the log. Later that day, Roxy couldn’t hear the sound of twigs snapping. Roxy decided to see if the person had gone away. But she was still there.

        Fortunately, the person turned out to be a very kind person. “Why are you hiding behind that very big log?” She asked trying to see if she nows Roxy. “My name is Roxy,” said Roxy still trying to hid behind the log. “Lets sit down and talk a little bite. “I need to tell you something. Are you a little girl or a big girl? Are you a big boy or a little boy? She asked. “I am a little girl.” Replied Roxy confused. ” My name is Len.” Said Len. “A very nasty but funny wised is planing to take over all of the little girls in the world. He told me to find all the little girls so she can kill them. You are the first on I can find. Will you please for give me?” “Of corse I will.” Said Roxy.”just one thing.” Said Roxy” what is the mean wizards name?” “It’s name is well I now what everyone calls her. It’s the meanest wizard in the world,” he said ,”but I like to call him mr smiley.” “Is mr smiley nice, kind and full of the best kind hart in the world that does everything himself?” Asked Roxy. Suddenly the sky was crumbling.

        Smash! Something went crashing down. First it looked and sounded like a bird, but now it doesn’t even smell like a bird. “Oa no,” said Len in shock,” that must be mr smiley! Quick Roxy we will hide behind that big log you were hiding behind when I found you.” But mr smiley was waiting there with a big fluffy pillow. “Oa did I scare you Len. I only want the girl not you. So hand her over!”said mr smiley. “No he will never hand me over. I am only a little girl but apparently I can tell the time. So you have no write to boss him around.” Said Roxy. Suddenly a rope dropped out of fin air! Roxy was court. But instead of killing Roxy mr smiley just put Roxy in the prison sell! Roxy was prison!

    After hours of falling Nicholas and Beamish hit the ground at 300mph and somehow it didn’t hurt, not at all. Nicholas explored the hole at the bottom. The dark hole was as dark as a world with no sun, no moon and not even stars. Nicholas tripped over. Although Nicholas got scratched, he didn’t give up. Suddenly, a small door opened. He didn’t know where it went to, so he went in…

    On the other side of the door there was a unusual place. The sky was a black blanket. The trees shivered with fear, you could here them groan. The bridges were curved like the moon. The houses had blades at the top of the riged roofs. The blades were as sharp as skin. No kidding! Broken glass!

    In the distance a dark shadowy figure appeared.Nicholas whispered to beamish “what is it?”They both hid behind a tree. That tree moaned like me when I get told off. The figure came closer. It said “I will help you”.

    1. This is brilliant writing Ben. 2tp. You have organised it very well and included excellent figurative language. Next step, :mrgreen: careful adding humour. ‘The tree moaned like me when I get told off.’ This might be more suitable for a diary entry. You could rephrase as ‘The trees moaned, like a young child hurt.’ Also, make sure you include enough detail in each paragraph before you move onto the next part of the story. This will help the reader to follow the story easily.

As he ran throw the trees in the corner of his eyes he saw a rusty hotel.

    By Vinny

    1. Well done Vinny I really like the bit when the picture was magic. Next time remember capital letters at the beginning of sentences. From Aaron

    2. Superb descriptions Vinny. 2tp. I like the phrase ‘in the corner of his eye’. Next step, :mrgreen: like Aaron suggested, make sure you include full stops where they are needed and capitals. Also, try to include some more descriptions of the fantasy setting, so that the reader can truly imagine what it is like.

        After while he was still looking around at the weird picture. Suddenly something pulled his arm it was his shadow that’s funny it’s my shadow I did not know shadows move when I don’t move?suddenly he was in the dark.

        He suddenly knew he was in the sky falling then Lee looked down, Lee finally knew what was going on the picture was magic. As he ran throw the trees, in the corner of his eyes he saw a rusty hotel and it was as old as a volcano touching the sky.

        Then someone walk past so he dived in the bush feeling furious then the mysterious person when he saw the bush he said to his self “I wonder who that is after 5seconds he creeped to the bush and pulled the branch and saw a unusual
        person “what are you doing here it’s very dangers.”then they started talking about the horror witch. Then the turtle said “what’s your name”my name is Lee” after 1hours later lee said “what’s your name” my name is Luke but I can not remember my first name because that horrible witch stole it and changed my name to Luke, Suddenly aloud rocket appeared “follow me” (said Luke)they ran as fast as a plane but the rocket kept being behind them.after that the witch dived out of the rocket and took Lee away by Vincent

        1. Well done Vinny. I really like your work. next time you can put some personification and a metaphor. But it is good 🙂 From James

          1. That was really good vinny. Next time probably use a simile like the leaves were as colourful as a butterfly or it was as scary as a goast. From Joseph.s

    My dilemma for fantasy world by Tiffany!

    As Nancy tumbled down the mysterious object she found herself in the unknown. She felt boiling as this was no ordinary world, it was magical and majestic. Everything around her seemed to be a blur. Nancy told herself to wake up however she was no longer dreaming. Although Nancy liked to explore she just wished she was back at home in her nice, cosy bed. Nancy could just make out that the weird shaped object In front of her could be trees. She sat straight up and realised she was in a mysterious garden. She didn’t know who owned the garden, but that didn’t matter at that moment in time, the point was she had been knocked out unconscious and didn’t even know where she was. The ‘trees’ were now dancing in the wind having the time of their lives.

    After a while Nancy spotted a mysterious figure approaching. Jumping behind a bush, Nancy hoped he or she hadn’t seen her just yet. The person came closer towards Nancy. Her heart felt heavy…

    1. Superb writing Tiffany! 2tp. I really like the complex sentences that you have used, which give the reader more details about the difficult time she is having. Next step, :mrgreen: try to check your organisation. I think I would possibly split your first paragraph into two paragraphs. I would have the first paragraph about being drawn into the fantasy world and the second about her first impressions of the world. Occasionally, you may need to explain your ideas slightly more. ‘She felt boiling’ doesn’t necessarily tell us how she is feeling. You might have said: ‘She realised that her temperature was rising and she felt like she was boiling!’

        My dilemma for fantasy world by Tiffany!

        As Nancy tumbled down the mysterious object she found herself in the unknown. Where could she be? She realised that her temperature was rising and she felt like she was boiling. Everything around her seemed to be a blur. Nancy told herself to wake up however she was no longer dreaming. Although Nancy liked to explore she just wished she was back at home in her nice, cosy bed.

        Nancy could just make out that the weird shaped object In front of her could be trees. She sat straight up and realised she was in a mysterious garden. She didn’t know who owned the garden, but that didn’t matter at that moment in time, the point was she had been knocked out unconscious and didn’t even know where she was. The ‘trees’ were now dancing in the wind having the time of their lives. ‘Hello’ Nancy called out. Strangely there was no reply.

        After a while Nancy spotted a mysterious figure approaching. Jumping behind a bush, Nancy hoped he or she hadn’t seen her just yet. The person came closer towards Nancy. Her heart felt heavy… ‘ uh hello what’s your name?’ Nancy murmured.
        “My name is Zach,yours?”
        “Oh Nancy, my name is Nancy.”
        “oh Nancy I’ve been looking for you. I think you’d better come with me before anyone spots you!'”
        “Ok” said Nancy shyly as her mother had told her never to follow strangers.

        Nancy was led to a little cottage in a forest. It suddenly dawned on her, how would she ever get home? ” whatever do you mean before anyone spots me?” She asked.
        ” i mean” Zach replied slowly. ” Serena might spot you.”
        ” who’s Serena? ” said nancy with a slightly worried look on her face.
        ” do you know anything? Serena is the golden witch. She rules the place and will as long as she shall live unless someone defeats her.” He turned around again and continued on to the front door. When they got there Nancy and Zach went over to the fire to warm their hands. Nancy had found out that Serena (the golden witch) had many people on her side and a pet that guarded her fortress. She also then knew who is good and who is bad In this weird and wonderful Land. ” well we really do need someone to defeat this dreaded terror now don’t we?” Exclaimed Zach.

        ” c’mon i will take you on a tour of this place.” So they both went into the magnificent garden and had a nice, long stroll through the magical wonderland. “Oh no, I forgot my pocket watch. I never leave home without it! I’ll quickly go back and get it. Don’t talk to any strangers Nancy!” He said.
        “I won’t.” Replied Nancy. She was now in the dark forest on her own. All of a sudden, an old lady approached. “Oh hello.” She mumbled. “Would you care for a nice cup of tea with me at my cottage?”
        “Oh I would love to but… Before Nancy knew it she was rushed away to a place where no one would find her. When Zach came back he realised what had happened…

    After a few minutes later Rebecca woke up in a different place she had never seen before. Darkness had surround her. In a long distant the mist was swaying side to side. It was as cold as ice. It was as wet as snowflakes melting into water. The trees danced slowly in the wind. When the wind had stopped the trees stood as still as soldiers. The wind howled in the far far away distance. The river flowed down the stream. The stream flowed down the river. The sky was as dark as as oft black blanket in the sky. The quickly ran to the to find the way out of this strange place. The morning came past .she was terrified when she couldn’t get out of this strange place. How would Rebecca get home?

    Later that day a shadowy figure appears. The shadow didn’t even see Rebecca a single bit. The shadow came closer and closer and Rebecca hid. The sky was as dark as a lions cave. It was so dark you could not see a single thing only with a big lightbulb in the air in the sky.

    1. Wow! Megan you included lots of exciting descriptions of the fantasy setting! 2tp. Next step, :mrgreen: remember to read through your writing to check it makes sense. Check for punctuation as there are a few commas to add. Secondly, try to add more descriptions of the character and how she is feeling.

    Two days had passed, and they still had the bug. All of a sudden Amber awoke to find that she was, in a wonderful palace shequickly went to get the others but they were not there, maybe only herself went through she said quietly. She decided to explore the palace and find someone to tell where she was and why she was here, I am so hungry,I’ll go to the kitchen.

    1. Hi Evie I really like your dilemma just next time use a simile or metaphors but you could be a level 4 soon. From Megan 😀

    2. You have included some nice ideas Evie! 2tp. Next step, :mrgreen: try to read through your writing and check for missing full stops and also remember to organise your writing into paragraphs. Megan is right, a few more descriptions would be nice.

    3. Two days had passed, and they still had the bug. All of a sudden Amber awoke to find that she was in a wonderful palace, she quickly went to get the others but they were not there, maybe only she went through. Amber said quietly. Then she decided to explore the palace and find someone to tell where she was and why she was here. “I am so hungry,I’ll go to the kitchen.” She found the kitchen, it was as large as a football pitch.

      Then all of a sudden, Amber heard some foot steps coming towards her. Quickly she dived behind a nearby door and held her breath, would it be a good person or bad person? It started to open the door. “Aaaaah” she screamed and ran out of the kitchen.
      “Wait” shouted the person,
      “What, you monster!?”

      “I am trying to help you.”
      “Why?”
      “There is a evil Queen in this castle.”
      “Ehh?” Said Amber.
      “Yes” replied the lady.
      “Oh well thanks by.”
      “Please come and I will show you round.”
      “Ok but first tell me your name.”Amber shouted (because there was a stamping noise)
      “My name is Maise.”
      “Maise.”
      “Why?”
      “Never mind it’s just my sister is named Maise.”
      “No it can’t be.”
      “Yes it is.”

    Mercedes’ fantasy story!

    After a longtime Gwen had woken up, Gwen felt dazed and worried,as she open her eyes. ‘ what had just happend ?’ Gwen thought. As she looked round she could see the brightly lit world, and the trees danced sadly from side to side. She touched the floor and she could feel the soft, grass slide across her hand. Gwen could hear the gushing river in front of her, it was light blue with moss on top. she could also hear the sound of the sweet robin near by her calling in every direction. Gwen then realised that non of this was real it was all puppet… and nothing was ordinary!

    Gwen then heard a sound of twigs being cracked, she then heard it again! ‘ what was it? ‘ Gwen murmured, she then saw a strange figure now running towards her! What was she going to do?
    Finally the strange figure approached her, Gwen then realised it was a girl. As the girl approached Gwen asked politely ‘ excuse me, but what is your name?’ The strange figure then replied,
    ‘ my name is Quinn what is yours? ‘
    ‘ my name is Gwen. ‘
    ‘ oh, I have been looking for you Gwen!’

        1. She meant that the one word to describe your writing would be ‘wow.’ 🙂

          To start each piece of speech with a capital letter.
          To punctuate the speech before we close it.
          To start a new line for each new speaker.

    1. Great effort James! 2tp. I like that you have used personification to describe the trees. Next steps, :mrgreen: try to make sure that you keep your story in the 3rd person (Bob, He, She, They, Him, Her). Also, if you want to include the character speaking, make sure you use speech marks. So remember:

      To put speech marks around the words being said.
      To start each piece of speech with a capital letter.
      To punctuate the speech before we close it.

    My fantasy world Dilemma by Evie.P

    Elizabeth found her self in a very strange place. She looked around and saw she was in a very dark forest. She stood still staring everywhere. All the trees were looking at her in confusion and whispering to each other. The root knotted carpet filled the ground tripping Elizabeth up when she was not paying attention. In the wind, the trees were trying to grab her with their branches. The forest was as cold as ice and was as dark as a bottomless pit. Elizabeth was frozen to the ground as she was scared to move. Where ever Elizabeth went she felt she was being watched by someone. The forest was eerie and frightening. Elizabeth was beginning to have goosebumps and she was shivering with fear. Elizabeth saw something in the distance it was colourful and beautiful. When she got closer she just made out it was a enchanted kingdom. ” it is beautiful.”

    Suddenly the castle doors opened and a girl ran out. The girl spotted Elizabeth hiding behind a tree.” how did you get here ”
    ” through a door ”
    ” what door there is no door” Elizabeth turned around and no door was to be seen. ” by the way what is your name because my name is Elizabeth” ” oh mine it’s Abby

    1. Wow! Evie P. this is brilliant! 2tp. I like that you have made your first paragraph very dramatic. Next steps, :mrgreen: check your first paragraph as I think it could be split into two. One paragraph to describe the setting and one to describe the approaching figure. Secondly, remember the rules of using speech:

      To put speech marks around the words being said.
      To start each piece of speech with a capital letter.
      To punctuate the speech before we close it.
      To start a new line for each new speaker.

        Elizabeth saw something in the distance it was colourful and beautiful. When she got closer she just made out it was a enchanted kingdom. ” It is beautiful.” Suddenly the castle doors opened and Elizabeth hid behind a tree. A girl walked out. The girl spotted Elizabeth hiding behind the tree. ” How did you get here? ” asked the girl.
        ” Through a door. ” replied Elizabeth
        ” What door there is no door?” said the girl in confusion. Elizabeth turned around and no door was to be seen. ” where’s the door gone.” Cried Elizabeth
        ” By the way what is your name because my name is Elizabeth?”
        “Oh mine it’s Abby but never ever go into the castle.” Asked Abby in a curious voice.
        ” Why.” Replied Elizabeth.
        ” there is my mother in there and she is called Lucinda.”
        ” it’s just your mother and mothers are very nice.” Said Elizabeth in a silly voice.
        ” she is evil though, she’s a witch.” Replied Abby In a dark voice.
        ” she can not be evil although”
        “But she is!” Interrupted Abby shouting.
        ” ok ok I believe you now” said Elizabeth quickly before Abby got cross.
        ” she has browny dark hair, green eyes, a purple cap and dress also there is some black on her cap and dress as well. She likes wearing her pointy hat and she finally has a wooden wand.” Said Abby in a scary voice. Elizabeth was getting frightened hearing it and she was trembling with fear. Just as Elizabeth was about to speak the wind started to blow wildly…

        ” what’s that it looks like a bird and a pretty one at that. Is it a bird?” Asked Elizabeth to Abby
        ” that’s not a bird that’s my mum, Lucinda quick hide.” Cried abby they hid behind a huge stump and Abby hid behind a tree. Lucinda saw the girls and flew down. ” we’ll Abby I was looking all over the castle.” Told Lucinda to Abby. ” who is this girl”
        “It’s Elizabeth”
        “Come with me girl” said Lucinda. Elizabeth followed Lucinda.

    A fantasy story by Jay

    Gonza awoke to An incredible museum he had to explore. He looked up and saw the moon flashing it’s torch. It seemed like a warning symbol or something. But that doesn’t matter right now. Gonza turned around and saw some trees through the windows dancing slowly. BANG went something from behind. Gonza turned and saw a shadowy figure in the distance cautiously walking towards him and when she got near she said don’t be afraid eat some food from this world and you’ll be fine here. Her name was Tira.

    My fantasy story by Evie.p

    Once upon a time there lived a girl called Ashley. She lived with her mother and father but her mother was very evil. Her father was lovely and cared for Ashley lots. One day When Ashley just woke up her mother said “go and leave this house immediately” so Ashley went but when she was near her friends house she knocked on the door. then the door flung open and out popped her friends head. Ashley’s friend was called Abby. She said ” hi Ashley why are you so far from home” “my mother said leave the house straight away and never return.” “Oh so you have had a bad day then.” “Very” so then Ashley said “do you want to go to the park” ” yeh let’s” so of they went to the park. When they got there they did not realise that there was a hole in the middle of the park and then suddenly they slipped and as fast as lightning they were down the hole

    Down the hole they went screaming loudly but nobody heard them. Well someone did it was Ashley’s mother who heard them screaming.she laughed loudly but not loud enough because they could not hear. So when Ashley and abby was screaming they both were crashing into cobwebs and skeletons “are we going to turn into one of those Ashley.” “I don’t know just stay calm and don’t scream any more ok.” When they got to the bottom they did not feel like themselves…

    They both felt like they had wings and they we’re hovering above the ground and when they looked at there backs they had sparkly beautiful wings and relised that they were fairys When they looked round they were in a beautiful garden witch was full of even more beautiful fairies. When they took one wing flap into the garden everybody stared at them because they had the most sparkly wings in the whole garden. ” what are they looking at us for” wispered Abby

    “Your wings they are beautiful and my friend would love to see them too” So they went to the fairies house and saw a little tiny fairy being hold by a teenage fairy. “Hello girls my name is flutter what is yours” “hi I am Ashley and this is my friend Abby.” “This is my friend rose and this is my little baby Olivia” said flutter ” we are not real fairys not really we fell down that hole and came down as fairies and we need your help to get back up.”up where”said flutter and rose confused “the hole” replied Ashley “what hole there is no hole” rose said back they turned around and saw nothing at all. All that was there was a filled hole nobody could fly up or climb up. They looked really upset and frightened because they had no mother and father again. Rose told them”do not be so upset we will try to get your mother and father back” flutter gave them a tissue to wipe away their tears.

    Night fell all over the land and rose and flutter told them that they would make them a bed until morning came. When Abby went to sleep she had a really bad dream she dreamt about a monster scratching them till they were bleeding all over. But then Ashley came and saved them. She suddenly woke up with a fright because Ashley was screaming loudly. Abby quickly got out the bed to see what was the matter. Ashley was being attacked by big dragon. Abby thought of what she could do to help Abby then quick as a flash she had an idea. She stood right in front of the dragon and said…….

    “Let go of my friend now you big meanie” ” why would i do that with my dinner now little fairy” “you are a talking dragon” ” well yes can all other dragons can talk too. You trying to destrack me little fairy aren’t you ” ” no and my name is Abby big dragon.” “Abby my name is Felix the dragon.” ” Felix that’s a nice name” ‘we’ll thank you ” then the dragon let go of Ashley because he wanted to show of. Ashley was amazed at what Abby just did because Abby is always scared of big mean dragons. “Abby that was amazing you saved me.” Then the dragon said in a dark voice ” I will be back I will be back.” Then the dragon went of to his cave far far away.

    After hours of falling Nicholas and Beamish hit the ground at 300mph and somehow it didn’t hurt, not at all. Nicholas explored the hole at the bottom. The dark hole was as dark as a world with no sun, no moon and not even stars. Nicholas tripped over. Although Nicholas got scratched, he didn’t give up. Suddenly, a small door opened. He didn’t know where it went to, so he went in…

    On the other side of the door there was a unusual place. The sky was a black blanket. The trees shivered with fear, you could here them groan. The bridges were curved like the moon. The houses had blades at the top of the rigged roofs. The blades were as sharp as skin. No kidding! Broken glass! The moon was the only light. Beamish barked.(dog)Nicholas got scared stiff, like a statue. He looked back to see if the hole was still there…

    It wasn’t. Nicholas ran. His mouth dropped. Beamish lay down. Despite he was tired, he carried on.

    In the distance a dark shadowy figure appeared.Nicholas whispered to beamish “what is it?”They both hid behind a tree. That tree moaned, like when a child is hurt. The figure came closer. It said “I will help you.”

    Fortunately, the shadowy figure appeared to be a really nice character. The shadowy figure said curiously “what are you doing behind that tree”
    Nicholas(Nick) replied “I thought you were a bad character”
    “Why”replied the person
    “What’s your name” asked Nick
    “Tom” replied Tom

    Tom wore a Bow and arrow. He has a white beard and white mustash he wears straw hat to and a black clock. He told me about an evil character. He said she’s called Queen Dee Doo. Her eyes are as red as lava. Her heart was pure evil. Nick freaked out. Tom carried on. She is miniature and all her powers are magic and she uses them when ever. Nick said “otoh.”Tom whispered “She’s a Frog.” She has a big fat nose. Her mouth is like a an elephant. Surprisingly, Queen Dee Doo(Dee Doo)has no beard and an boy hair

    A short while later, when Tom and Nick were minding there own business…
    The ground shook with fear. “Oh no” he shouted “it’s the the evil Dee Doo frog! Run!”
    A spike came out of the ground. It grew bigger and bigger and bigger. Nick said “what is it”
    Tom replied “I don’t no it must be a new vehicle…It’s a drill” It was to late.

  23. William – Geoffrey and the World of Water
    A long time ago there was an old train station. Some children lived there. It was dusty and old and the train driver lived there as he was retired. The old man was kind and carm. Since he was thirty he had being trying to fix his old tender engine and his three carriages. The engine was as old as a posterseukus.

    The old man starting fixing the tender engine suddenly he heard a noise and was pulled in from the front of his engine! As slow as a slug he entered a world of trains he had never seen before. As he opened his eyes he saw lots of water, trains were running on wires and steam was turned into multi-coloured bubbles. He was now in an underwater world and could breathe.

    Geoffrey started to explore and saw an old rusty train. When he boarded the train’s cabin the train transformed into a bright blue and gold steam locomotive. All of a sudden a little red and blue fish swam into the cabin as the train set off. “Hello Geoffrey you must get out of here before the evil whale comes!” “why?” said Geoffrey. “The whale will turn you into a train just like the one you are riding on”. “How will he do that to me?” said Geoffrey. “The blue whale will put a spell on you”.

    The little fish quickly swam out of the cabin and disappeared. Geoffrey started to explore the train. Inside the carriages were lots of little fish reading books he looked around in amazement. When Geoffrey went in to the next carridge he suddenly fell “nnnnnooooo” shouted Geoffrey!!! The little fish saved Geoffrey and stopped the train. Just then the blue whale snatched Geoffrey and took him halfway down the sea canyon. He tried to wriggle free and escape but try as he might he couldn’t.

    1. Well done William, I really liked the way Geoffrey said “nnnnnooooo!” Next time try to use some more similes, metaphors and personification. On the other hand, well done. From Chloe 🙂

    Mercedes’ Dilemma ( fantasy story )

    After a longtime Gwen had woken up, Gwen felt dazed and worried,as she open her eyes.
    ‘ What had just happend ?’ Gwen thought.
    As she looked round she could see the brightly lit world, and the trees danced sadly from side to side. She touched the floor and she could feel the soft, grass slide across her hand. Gwen could hear the gushing river in front of her, it was light blue with moss on top. She could also hear the sound of the sweet robin near by her calling in every direction. Gwen then realised that non of this was real it was all puppet… and nothing was ordinary!

    Gwen then heard a sound of twigs being cracked, she then heard it again!
    “What was it? ” Gwen murmured,
    She then saw a strange figure now running towards her! What was she going to do?
    Finally the strange figure approached her, Gwen then realised it was a girl. As the girl approached Gwen asked politely,
    “Excuse me, but what is your name?”
    The strange figure then replied,
    “My name is Quinn what is yours? ”
    “My name is Gwen. ”
    “Oh, I have been looking for you Gwen!”
    “Why? I only came in here by a touch of a old cracked mirror!”said Gwen stunned,
    ” Nothing to be worried about, but please follow me, and I will show you something that has been worrying the village for a long, long time.”
    Gwen thought about it
    “What if I will never come back?”
    Thought Gwen all of her Quires zoomed around in here head… Finally Quinn said enthusiastically,
    “It will be ok, I will protect you from the mean Queen, and any way she might like you, remember you can’t trust your mind can you?”
    ” ok, but after I do it I am going straight back!” Said Gwen hopefully.
    ” I will tell you about Queen Tabitha, straight away, we can’t lose any time! ” said Quinn excitedly.
    ” ok this is all you need to knew, she will try and control you by her powers and if she doesn’t she will try and kill you, only a couple of people have been killed, but that was because they didn’t get her the right thing so make shore you get her the right thing, ok?”
    ” Ok, I will try.” Said Gwen worriedly
    ” She is as powerful as powerful as you should find out, and her eyes as are red as a burning fire. She will also try and steel all of your memories, now we must get back to my cottage to sort things out and talk more about Queen Tabitha, now come on, Quick! ”

    Whilst Gwen and Quinn walked they talked and Quinn showed Gwen around and showed were the village last stood. Finally, they both reached to the old cottage that stood in the middle of nowhere, Gwen then said,
    ” Is this a puppet world then or not?”
    ” Yes and that is why every body is scared ,because she wants to rule this secret world, and nobody likes her!”
    ” Oh, is that why I am here, is that why I came through the mirror to save every body?”
    ” Of course it is, I put a spell on that mirror so that who ever came though it they would help us defeat the Queen, and the mirror won’t come back until you complete this mission.”

    Suddenly there came a roar of thunder and a flash of lightning!
    ” oh,no!” Quinn shouted ” We must hide quick ,come on follow me we will hide under this small bush!”
    Quinn and Gwen rushed over to a small bush, but it was to late…

    1. We’ll done Mercedes that is a flabbergasting dilemma! I liked the way you used interesting vocabulary Instead of the word ‘said’. From Tiffany 🙂

  30. Mr McCann, I got up to the part when Serena (my evil character) tells Nancy (my good character) what she has to do if she wants to get back home.

    “Ok little filth holder!”cackled the evil witch.
    ” the name Is Nancy.” Replied Nancy, now with a slightly scared look on her face.
    “Same thing, look if you want to go Back home and see your parents I’m willing to make an offer.” She exclaimed. “We are gonna have a game of chess.” Anyone who knew Serena would know that she was the champion of chess playing, as was ever since she could remember.”If you win which you won’t of-course, you are allowed to be free from my land. however if you lose which you will, you will be trapped in here for eternity. Ha ha!”

    The following day, was the day Nancy dreaded. “C’mon do you want to go home?” She told herself. ” I can do this, I can do this!” She chanted.

    When all the positions were set up Serena and Nancy took to their places. They glared at each other for a moment then focused on the game itself. Many Minutes had passed and Serena was winning. All of a sudden that changed. Just with one move of a counter Nancy was In the lead.

    At the end if the game Nancy had fortunately claimed victory. “I won! ” cried Nancy in relief.
    “No!”screeched Serena in disgust. ” that can’t be right!” Suddenly there was a flash of red smoke. Without any magic from Serena at all, an unexpected mirror appeared right before Nancy’s very eyes. Not much later Zach appeared.” Zach” cried Nancy. “You’re back.”
    “I guess.” Shrugged Zach. ” well nice knowing you Nancy. I’m gonna miss you.”
    ” me too” she replied.

    Without a moment to lose Nancy dived back into the mirror and she was back in the cellar before she knew it. Nancy then knew what to look out for and she didn’t dare go in that particular room ever again. Nancy told her parents what had happened and I think you know what’s coming next… They didn’t believe her.

    By Tiffany

    1. I love it Tiffany! Maybe when you do another fantasy story of your own at home ,their could be a twist with the challenge so the chess pieces were made out of gold, or the chess board was humungouse! From Mercedes 🙂
