Journal ! :D

The Trees encrusted in frostbite snow, the ground crumbling beneath the trees wrinkly roots. The mist scattered around the spikey tree tops, all was silent except for 4 teenage boys having a gamble in the frostbite winds. Jack got up and trampled his way around the spring like leaves but he tripped and found what had gone missing long ago… The city's flag pole which had been missing for quite a long time. But nobody knew who had taken it from the city’s center. But behind that was, was a metal fence encrusted with rust. Jack called for the other teenagers with all what was left of his mighty soul. They came darting down the hill like a bullet out of a gun but they came to a halt when they saw the figure of a building in front of their frozen eyes.

They stood for a while not moving a muscle, Jack and his friends felt unwelcome but they still took the fear that awaits them behind the frozen fence. They climbed up the encrusted fence and fell down onto the other side it looked abandoned, fragmented it was. What could of happened here, a wave of frostbite winds came rushing through the powerplant which echoed off the decaying wood of the fragmented buildings. They decided to walk through to the middle if the structure but found what they were hoping not to find. A man stood at the end of the power plant with a ebony black cloak encrusted with blood of the people that had died in here before. Jack stood staring at the man but looked away and then looked back, but he wasn’t there where would he have gone. Jack ran off to safety in one of the buildings but was it safe or was it not… His friends became curious of where Jack was, he didn’t come out for a long time infact he never even came out. So they walked over to the building their soft skin tremblin, they were so frightened that Jay passed out. They got up to the door the floorboards creaking every step of the way, the door creaked open carefully but it was too late what had got Jack, he was hung with a rope tied around his neck attached to the roof, cockroaches scattered all around his decaying body. Flinn dashed out of the decaying building, leaving his soul behind he muttered to himself saying “Gotta find a building thats safe” Then he found one with flower hanging down from the windows. All polished, but was it a bit too suspicious or was it not…? When he got in there he saw the same man that was standing at the end of the power plant, the man spoke “Bye Bye” And sliced his head off with his Razor Sharp blade, then the man disappeared into dust, but he popped up in another room waiting for his next victim.

Storm got up from his slumber and had forgotten everything that he had been through, He became a bit dizzy and walked into the room with that same man in it and dropped dead to the floor without the man having to even touch him. Jay was still staring at Jack’s decaying body but he knew one thing he had to get out of there. bolted out of the room, his feet were so strong the whole building came crashing down making a thundering noise like a lightning bolt hitting metal. Jay ran for it this was his only chance, but he slipped and fell onto the ground with the man gaining speed. But Jay got up from the fall feeling a little clumsy but just couldn't run…

Jay got lucky, the man tripped and revealed his identity but Jay didn’t care he just wanted to get out of there with all of his body parts still in place. He got up and sprinted to the entrance could he make it? He dived down under the rust encrusted fence, he crawled under the fence clinging onto him, the man was right behind him and pulled the fence down, Jay ran for it he could see a clearing in the distance. His mum popped out 0f the side of the tree and put her bulging arm out, the man smashed his jaw on it and fell to the ground, with all of his teeth crumbling out. Jay and his mom felt the joy in being together, he and his mom decided to have a Scrumshus Cookie with a steaming Hot, Hot Chocolate.

Book Week Adventures!

This week we have book week, click here for our padlet. Also here is my Rat Burger Story Mountain!

Rust encrusted all over the poor decaying thing, violet colour fading away on it's old processors. Bolts and screws popping out of it like a clown coming out of something you get from mcdonald’s. It's name is Asylum 234 it has ebony black base with strips of velvet red all over. The black outstanding all of the other fading colours. Theres the rustic head with two spring coming out of the top. The radiator on the back of the old thing and the legs with clockwork processors bolted on, it's job is to cut people the old thing encrusted with that rust. It's so sharp it's almost like the dragons bane.  Also inside of it there is a glass stand with the most radiative life form on this universe, more powerful than anything anyone could imagine. Bolts as his eyes legs of stiff metal concrete and the body hollow but slime covered the nest of the dragon’s bane. Thats why he was stuck in there the old Asylum 234 is soo rustic that you can’t go near it without getting a deep cut beyond belief. It looks sorta like this -->
