I’m glad you’re my sister!”<br /><br />"Yeah sure Charli, thanks, did that dress fit you?” I said to my 7 year old blond sister.<br /><br />“Yes!! It was sooo cool!!! When do we get to Matainui? I wasn’t to go and see your friends Kim and Haylee!” She whined.<br /><br />“In about three more minutes!” I assured. “How you doing Holly?” I asked my other 9 year old sister.<br /><br />“Good!!! I can’t believe you can fly!!!!” She gasped.<br /><br />“Rosie? How about you?”<br /><br />“I’m having fun!!!” My 5 year old sister replied.<br /><br />“O.K, here we are!” said, popping my families air bubbles, as they landed safely to the ground.<br /><br />“Hey guys!” I said.<br /><br />“Hey Maddi!” Dilshen, Haylee, Kim, and Kieran replied.<br /><br />“How’s, they tree house going?” I asked.<br /><br />“Good!! But we need your help. We can’t lift this.” Kieran said, pointing to a long, metal pole.<br /><br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“Sure!” I said lifting it up easily in an air bubble. “Where do you want it?” I asked.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“Just in that hole there, it’s going to be our flag!” He said.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“Awesome!” I yelled.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“I painted it that color!!” Rosie yelled.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“You sure did!” Haylee said, cuddling her.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“We’re so proud of you guys!” Our parents said, giving us various hugs.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">“Well” I said. “Matainui’s a magical place.</span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-66101166367548668792009-12-10T12:49:00.000-08:002009-12-10T13:02:01.932-08:00Last day.<span style="font-family:courier new;">'*YAWN* *GASP* Come on guys!!!" I said jumping up. "We need to find everyone, turn them back to normal!" I said. jumping up, going into the changing room, and getting into my 'last day' outfit. I smiled when I put it on. I was wearing a white flowing dress. With pretty, silver slipper-like shoes. I let my hair down, stroking it with my hands. And smiling.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K guys, woah! Your ready already!!!" I gasped, I shrugged, and opened the door, I fe;t a small river of tears drop from my sad eyes. "Goodbye spaceship" I stuttered. Turning around holding hands with my group, and flying off into the distance, watching the door close behind me.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K guys!! Now that your normal agin, I willcarry you by air bubble, 8 at a time, back to N.Z" I smiled, at my class. "It will take about 1/4 of an hour to take each group across, and I will make 4 trips." I finished. Turning around, carrying the first 1/4 of my class, back, back to New Zealand.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-family:webdings;font-size:180%;"><strong>THE END!!!!!!!!!</strong></span></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-family:Webdings;font-size:180%;"></span></strong> </div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-family:courier new;font-size:180%;">(THE END!!!!!!!!)</span></strong></div>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-91363388793494163512009-12-10T12:22:00.000-08:002009-12-10T12:49:17.528-08:00Day 13<span style="font-family:courier new;">"RISE AND SHINE!!!!!!!!!" I yelled, already in my ultimate adventure clothes Kim had made the day before. They were, Pink camou shorts, a white short sleeved top, and a pink camou jacket. I had put black paint in lines on my face like the traditional army people did. I gasped to see that the rest of my group had slept in their clothes so that they were already ready.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Lets do this" I said.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We flew towards the mountain eager to beat the aliens, we giggled, smirked, and chuckled on the way</span> . <span style="font-family:courier new;">When we got to the mountain we practised our powers a bit. Then we entered the elevator, and braced ourselves.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We reached the bottom to find five aliens standing over the mutant Mr Woody, saying something</span><span style="font-family:courier new;">.</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">"We have taken care of those kids, one of them was shot, they won't be coming back, unless they're absolutely crazy!!!" </span><br /><span style="font-family:Webdings;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I smiled, holding the ankh up to my ear, and repeating what they said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We have taken care of those kids, one of them was shot, they won't be coming back, unless they're absolutely crazy!!!" I giggled. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">And purposley cleared my throat, trying to get their attention. It worked. They turned towards us pulling out guns, I smiled, turning us into air the bullets went straight through us. I laughed evilly, well, tried to anyway, I think it worked because they turned all of they're guns to me, I chuckled, froming an air bubble inside one of the aliens, and expanding it until they collapsed, I gasped, starig at my hands, <em>Wow, I'm powerful!!</em> I thought, doing it over and over again, to every alien, until there were none left in the room. I turned us back to normal, and we walked over to Mr Woody.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"You guys, I had a dream last night, that if we all tried hard and held hand in a circle around someone, we could turn them back to human!" I said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K" Dilshen said. "Lets try!" We all stood in a circle, around Mr woody, thinking hard, I felt a warm glow over my face, and looked down to see the human Mr Woody!!!! I giggled.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"A+++++++++++++++++++!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mr Woody said. We all cracked up laughing, and told Mr Woody our whole stroy, and he told us his, </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, I was kidnapped by the aliens, I thought I saw a Moa, so I walked towards it, and fell into a deep hole, I stayed in there for about a day, then the aliens came back and knocked me out, they, took me here, and were torturing me for days, poking needles through my head trying to turn me into a mutant, I'm glad you turned me back. . . . . . . ."</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Speaking of back mr woody, we can get back!" I informed. "I can carrypeople back to N.Z, in an air bubble, probably about seven people ata time," I said. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"What about 10?" He asked.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'm not that strong!" I giggled.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, you guys have go t powers huh?" He asked.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yup!" We agreed. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Lets go back to pur spaceship, have a rest, and go back in the morning." I said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K." Mr Woody said.</span><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Oh, wait!!! I heard the aliens talking in english once! They said, that we, us, went forward in time!!" He said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"OH!!! THAT THING WAS A TIME WARP!!!!!!" I exclaimed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes!" Mr Woody said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">So with that, we flew back to our spaceship, had some food, had, had a long long sleep. . . . . . . . . . . . . ..........................................................................................................................................................................</span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-80443812606473297692009-12-09T15:07:00.000-08:002009-12-10T12:22:46.565-08:00Day 12<span style="font-family:courier new;">"*YAWN*" I yawned. "Wow! I never usually have this good of a sleep at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Matainui</span>!" I grinned, rolling over to face the rest of my group. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"I has such a good sleep!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Dilshen</span> smiled, hugging his pillow.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"*gasp*" I gasped. "We need to go back to the lake to see if anything has happened!" I yelled grabbing my new clothes, and running to the changing room. I came out of the changing room smiling, and continuously posing for my group. I grinned looking down at my white 3/4 length tights, over top there was a gold poof skirt, with a black singlet top, and a short cardigan/jacket, of white.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"You look so cool!" Kim yelled.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Thanks for the clothes Kim, your good as at making them! They remind me of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Supre</span>!" I said.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"It's all because of my power, suddenly I know all about what most thing are made out of, I then grow the ingredients, and there!" She grinned.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"You look cool too!" I said to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Haylee</span> and Kim. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Haylee</span> was wearing a Blue singlet over a pink singlet, with a short denim skirt and pink tights. Kim was wearing a Emerald green halter neck dress, going down to her knees, with creamy beige tights going down to her ankles. The boys were just wearing plain old board shorts, with short sleeved tops that looked kind of like they were from <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">hallensteins</span>.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.K, lets go guys,. we're ready!" I grinned, flying out carrying the rest of my group in air bubbles around me, I felt my amulets shake in my pocket as we got closer and closer to the mountain. I gulped, as the lake came into view.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!!!!" I screamed as I saw the lake, it seemed that a huge mountain had risen up in it's place!! I could still see the cave we were in the day before, it still had the topaz shining in the middle, I grinned as i flew around the mountain, looking for an entrance. I shrugged, and flew into the chamber from the day before.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"HEY!!!" I yelled pointing to five silver chains, floating above the spaces where our amulets were the other day. I gasped and grabbed them walking towards my group.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I think all of our amulets fit into these bracelets, well, this one has a slight green tinge, so I'm guessing it's Kim's, this one is kind of sparkly, so I think it's mine, this one has kind of a black tinge, so I'm guessing it's <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Dilshen's</span>, this one looks tinged red, so It's <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Kieran's</span> and lastly this one is tinged blue, so I'm guessing it's <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Haylee's</span>" I said handing all of them out. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Um. Lets try to put our mini eyes, one this chain." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Dilshen</span> said.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I tried to put them on, but only one clicked, I frowned grabbing one of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Dilshen's</span>. It clicked. I grinned grabbing one of each of them, they all clicked nicely.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Cool!" We yelled. I heard a long buzzing sound, kind of like a drill, I frowned, and walked over to the wall, pressing my ear against it. I smiled, and ran my finger over a crack in the wall, like I had in the cave before. The wall, slid open, I gasped, beckoned my group, we stepped into the dark cave, I was about to walk over to the corner of the room, when I tripped over, causing the whole room we were in to shake, we screamed, as the room slid down, like an elevator. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We felt a big bump. And the doors on the other side slid open. I gasped, as I laid eyes on a doctor-like room, with a whole lot of equipment lying everywhere, I looked out side the glass room, with all of the equipment, to see disgusting alien creatures, with octopus <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">li</span></span><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">ke</span> legs, wriggling around outside. I felt sick, watching their green heads inflate, then deflate, over and over again. I then turned my vision to the middle of the room, I gasped, seeing MR WOODY!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">He was lying in the middle of the room, tied to an operating table, with a metal cap on his head, with a clear tube with green liquid running into his head, I gasped again. Pointing to him, my group gasped an we were about to run towards him. His eyes, started to multiply, his legs became scaly, and yellow, and his body, became green and oozy. I screamed. Whoops. A whole lot of aliens came running, or should I say wriggling, in.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We gasped, hiding under one of the desks.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">"The experiment has been very successful master!!! Our patient has already transformed."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">"Well, what can I say, He was easy to trick!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"What!!!???" I whispered, I smiled, holding the ankh, which had been in my pocket, up to my ear.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"The experiment has been very successful master!!! Our patient has already transformed."<br /><br />"Well, what can I say, He was easy to trick!"</span><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gasped quietly, after hearing what they had said, I wanted to make a dash for the door straight away.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K guys, we are super hero's!! We can beat these wannabes!' I encouraged.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">HAAAAAAAAAAAAYA</span>!!!" I screamed jumping out from my hiding spot. "Take this aliens!" I yelled, placing five aliens inside an air bubble. "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Kieran</span>! Fire please?" </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"My pleasure!" He yelled placing fire inside the bubble.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I looked over my shoulder, giggling at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Haylee</span> drowning most of the aliens, and Kim, strangling them with vines. I gasped, suddenly <span style="font-family:courier new;">seeing an alien running towards us with a gun. I screamed.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!!!!" I ran towards the rest of my group, the whole thing seemed to go in slow motion, I focused on being </span><span style="font-family:courier new;">air-like, causing the bullet go straight through me and out the other side. I gasped, seeing <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">Kieran</span> standing behind me, I screamed, again. As the bullet went towards his arm, I quickly turned him into air, but not quick enough, he managed to have a deep gash in his arm! He screamed out in pain. I gasped, quickly turning the rest of my group and I into air, we were all so weak. We quickly turned back, into the elevator, pushing the button, and flying back home. I put an air bubble around my group. And watched <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">Kieran</span> just lie inside it, grasping his arm. I felt a lump rise in my throat, I was the one who told them to fight. It was my fault! I felt a tear run down my cheek, but pressed onwards, seeing our space ship come into sight. We quickly landed in our spaceship, we crowded K<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">ieran</span>, observing his wound.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Kim, do you know any herbs that could help it heal faster?" I asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Uh, yeah I know just the thing, I'll go grow it now." She stuttered.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'll get the first aid kit." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">Dilshen</span> said. I sighed. "How do you feel?" I asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"My arm stings, but if you hadn't of turned me to air, I would have had a bullet in my arm." He laughed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"It's not funny, is it <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">Haylee</span>?" </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"No, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">Kieran</span>, you Might've died!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25">Haylee</span> exclaimed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Here's the first aid kit." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26">Dilshen</span> said handing it to me.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Thanks <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27">Dilshen</span>, O.K <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">Kieran</span>, what we're going to do, is put whatever Kim has in store, on your wound, and then we'll wash it, and stitch it up." I smiled. "It isn't as bad as it sounds." </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Here." Kim puffed, handing me a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">liquid</span> stuff. I rubbed it over his wound, with a damp cloth. He cringed a bit, but then fainted.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">KIERAN</span>!!!" I yelled. "You've been <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31">unconscious</span> for 2 hours!!" I sighed, as he woke up.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Sorry" He said.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, your wounds fine." I assured. "We'll go back to rescue Mr Woody, and transform him back <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32">tomorrow</span>." I said. "But for now, lets get some sleep. I said, walking into the changing room, having a small shower, or in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33">other</span> words, a bucket, got into my P.J's and slept.</span></p><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;"></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-35282711345208612232009-12-03T19:34:00.000-08:002009-12-09T15:06:43.223-08:00Day 11<span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>7:00AM</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><br />"RIIIIIISE AAND SHIIIIINE GUUUUYS!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed waking everyone up.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Ugh! What time it?" Dilshen asked.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"7:00!"</span><br />"UGH!"<br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We need an early start!" I claimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Hey watch this you guys!" I called. "I've been practising this heaps, from 6:30!" I said as I sighed, walking into the wall, concentrating on becoming air-like. Arriving on the other side of the wall, giggling, and walking through the wall again.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!" Kim exclaimed. "Congrats!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Anyway. That's probably how I went through that mountain the first time." I interrupted. "I've made breakfast. Creamed rice, and a Milo, ingredients kindly donated by Kim." I said motioning to Kim. She curtsied, and I continued "So, we are leaving for the mountain at. . .' I looked at my watch. "9:00AM at the LATEST!!! So come on guys!" I grinned "CHOP CHOP!" </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">8:45AM</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"WHOOOOOSH WHOOOOOOOOSH!!!!" I was flying around my group waiting for them to finish.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Show off!" Dilshen chuckled.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I poked my tongue out at him and continued swooping around them.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">9:00AM</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hurry up you slow pokes" I giggled zooming ahead of them, twisting and turning above the obstacles. After about two minutes, I landed on the bank of the lake, looking around trying to find something interesting. I found some pretty demented shells, obviously been drowned by radioactivity. I kept some of them in my pocket, I found them interesting. I was about to turn back to my group, to tell them that it was useless, when I remembered that we had to dive IN the lake, I smiled, and ran over to tell my group.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">11:00AM</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Guys!!! We have to go IN the lake!" I exclaimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"OH!! Yeah I forgot that bit!" Dilshen replied.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K! So Haylee can go under, but no one else can!" Kieran said.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I smiled, formed an air bubble around myself, flew up slowly above them, for affect, and, as fast as lightning, dived into the lake, disappearing from their view. I giggled from inside my bubble, gliding through the water, well, kind of.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"WOOOOOOHOOOO!" I screamed, rising up from the lake, and grinning at them.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, now we know that two people can go in the water. So . . . GO!." Dilshen exclaimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K" Haylee replied.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I swam around next to Haylee, she looked weird swimming through the water, breathing completely fine, I sighed, swimming around in a different direction, after seeing a small flash of light fly down through the water. I glided through the water motioning for Haylee to follow, we swam into a small chamber/cave. Like the o</span><span style="font-family:courier new;">ne we swam in with the gems, we then noticed, that it was filled with air, like the one before.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So. Hey look!" I yelled. Pointing over to a little, kind of table, with A shining yellow gem in the middle.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"ITS A TOPAZ!!!!" Haylee exclaimed. Pointing to the gem in the middle of the concrete table.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah, that must of been what fell from the sky." Haylee agreed "Dilshen did it!" Haylee added.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Deep deep down, by the bright star stone,A light must fall, from the unknown!!!" I yelled. " This is what was meant to happen!" I exclaimed. Reaching down towards the topaz, I touched it, and it sizzled, burning me.</span><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"OUCH!" I screamed. Cringing. "That's hot!" </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah, if it's from the sky, it's probably hot. Here" She said, creating a small water bubble around my burn, it instantly soothed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Thanks Haylee!" I said. "So, what should we do now?" I asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"What was the next part of the riddle?" Haylee asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Um, it was, <em>Yellow sparkles in the heart, each of the jewels must do their part</em>."</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"The <em>yellow sparkles in the heart</em> must be about the topaz in the middle." Haylee claimed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes, and <em>each of the jewels must do their part</em>, hmmm, maybe that means our jewels, like, all of our amulets do something." I finished.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah! Look! There's like little imprints of our amulets!" Haylee exclaimed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Pass me your amulet." I told Haylee. I reached out for the amulet, and tried to press it in. it clicked, and bounced back out again. I frowned, and tried the same with my amulet. It immediately clicked, and turned around, so that the curl was pointing towards the topaz.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I think you have to put your own amulet in." I gasped.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'll try!" Haylee said, pressing her amulet in, it clicked, and turned too.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hmm. Each of the Jewels must do their part!" I gasped. "We need to get the rest of the guys in here!" I said. "So they can put their amulets in too! I have a feeling something exciting will happen when we do." </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, sure, but how are we going to get them in?" She asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I giggled, forming an air bubble around her, and watching her float into the air.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.K then" She said "Show off." We swum back, informing our group of our findings, we then dove under the water, me having to try extra hard to keep my other three air bubble inflated. Once we had reached the cave we slowly put all the rest of the amulets in. I gasped, as the cave suddenly shook violently. I screamed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"This is what happened, in the other cave!!!!!" I gasped. I ran towards the exit of the cave, when I noticed that the amulets were still there, I felt vain, not wanting to lose my powers. So I was about to grab the amulets, when they shook, and broke into five mini ones, I gasped, grabbed one of mine, and used my powers to lift all of them up, I sent them out of the cave, hoping they would end up on the shore, I smiled, knowing they would, and formed an air bubble around the rest of my worrying group.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Ugh!" I yelled, drying out my hair. "Thanks for the warm water Haylee, I said, walking over to my bag, and grabbing a can of baked beans, and asking Kieran to heat it inside my air bubble, I yawned,and walked into our new 'changing room' slipping into my newly made P.J's. Kim grew some stuff that we could make clothes out of. I gasped, feeling so clean and warm. </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K Kim, I LOVE these Pyjama's!!!!!" I screamed. Looking down at my white P.J's, with beautiful pictures of hearts on them.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, so, um, why did our amulets turn into mini ones?" I asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, I think, we all have one of the amulet colours each!" Dilshen said. "Maybe we're all meant to have all of the powers, like we all wear one, and have ultimate power!" He chuckled.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, Well go back there tomorrow!" I yawned, snuggling into my bed, pulling, my new pink blanket over my face, and resting my head on my pillow.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"This *Yawn* is the *Yawn* life."</span></p><p> </p><p> </p><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><br style="FONT-FAMILY: courier new"><br /></p><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-17495309207639659332009-12-02T14:17:00.000-08:002009-12-03T19:32:01.148-08:00Day 10<span style="font-family:courier new;">8:00AM<br /><br />I yawned. Smiled. And jumped up, flying into the air. I felt so free, like I could now go anywhere. I kinda could. I flew around my group for a while, and then decided to try and test my power more. To see what else my power was capable of. I looked at some of the inscriptions on the wall of the space ship, seeing s picture of a air bubble. I smiled, and focused on my drink bottle, slowly creating an air bubble around it, and carrying it in the air. I felt so energetic and powerful! I then thought of invisibility. <em>No one can see air right?</em> I though to myself, so I focused on my self, slowly making myself transparent. I giggled, waking up Haylee.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Where's Maddi!!!" Haylee shouted, suddenly confused.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I chuckled, reappearing, Haylee jumped back, squealing. I giggled, and patted her on the back.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Do you want to go and explore the caves?" I asked.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Sure. But lets wake up the others first" She said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">After a breakfast of apple crumble. Which we ate thankfully (If your wondering how we got apple crumble, Kim grew the ingredients, I created an air bubble to cook it on, Haylee provided the water, and Kieran provided the heat!</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Lets go!" I yelled desperate to explore the caves, wanting to find another exciting thing.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">1:00PM </span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">After flying to the cave with inscriptions, we all looked around, trying to find something. </span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Nothing here!" I yelled</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Neither" Kim exclaimed</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Look!!!" Dilshen yelled "This is an inscription of all our amulets together by the</span> the curly things!! "</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Lets try and click them together here!" Kieran said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I put my amulet inside the dent thast looked like mine, and it clicked in place.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, you guys put yours in." I ordered.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">They clicked them all into place. . . . Nothing happened.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, uh, how about this?" I asked, and clicked it to the right, causing a long bemm of light to shot out from all of the gems, creating a riddle on the wall, this is what it read.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">You must dive, to sapphires home,</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">Each of you must use your own. </span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">Deep deep down, by the bright star stone, </span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">A light must fall, from the unknown. </span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">Yellow sparkles in the heart, </span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">Each of the jewels must do their part.</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">From the crater, land will arise,</span><br /><span style="font-family:webdings;">A place of anguish in disguise.<br /></span><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:130%;">"I cant read that!" I yelled. "Hey. I had a dream last night and this should. . . ."</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:130%;">I lifted the ankh we found on day one, and held it up to the light, as it spelt, </span></p><em><span style="font-family:arial;">You must dive, to sapphires home,</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">Each of you must use your own.</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">Deep deep down, by the bright star stone,</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">A light must fall, from the unknown.</span></em><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"></span><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">Yellow sparkles in the heart,</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:arial;">Each of the jewels must do their part.</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:Arial;">From the crater, land will arise,</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:Arial;">A place of anguish</span></em><em><span style="font-family:Arial;"> in disguise.</span></em><br /><em><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></em><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;font-size:130%;">I gulped, remembering the riddle, knowing we would need it some time.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:130%;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.K, we'll all remember one part of the riddle. I'll remember the first bit, Dilshen remember the second, Kim remember the third, Haylee remember the fourth."</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Good idea!!" Dilshen complimented.</span><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">And with that, I removed the ankh, and took out our amulets one by one, handing them to the rest of my group.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We were all about to fly back to space ship when I realised that maybe Haylee or Kim could fly too. </span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee, I know you don't think you can fly, but just focus on flying, and you might some how fly. You too Kim!"</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.K" They replied, I could tell they were focusing hard, but it didn't work so well. I bit my lip in thought, and remembered my air bubble. I clicked my fingers, and focused, creating an air bubble around them, and lifting up my arms causing them to rise. I chuckled. And rose with them.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well? What are we waiting for?" I asked speeding off in the direction of our 'lounge'.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">Once we had gotten there, we sat down and tried to DE-riddle the riddle.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, so, lets focus on the first bit. They're kind of couplets. ou know two lines that rhyme, I read about it in 'a seires of unfortunate events'. So, I was meant to remember the first bit, um. . . It was, 'You must dive to sapphires hoome, each of you must use your own." I said grinning at my remembering skills.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, sapphire, um, ooh! Our gems?" I propose. "Who's got sapphire?" I asked.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Me!" Haylee answered.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, your home? Uh, well, maybe we have to go to your actual house again. I can carry Haylee and Kim . . ."</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"No. I don't think thats what it meant." Dilshen claimed. "Well, if your were kind of a 'godess' of water" I nudged Haylee and giggled."Then your home would be the water right? Maybe we need to travel to where we crashed?" he claimed.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Maybe, but I had a dream about the southern cross two nights ago, and so far, everything I've dreamed has been, you know, kind of true, that's how I knew about the ankh, and to hold it up to translate the riddle into English. So, that will have something to do with it, what's with the southern cross that's so important?" I puzzled.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, the southern cross has five stars making it up, it's kind of in the shape of a crucifix cross thing, with one star in the rightish middleish. The top one is called Gacrux, the right one is called, delta cru, the one right down the bottom is called Acrux, the one to the left is called Becrux, or Mimosa. . ."</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"That sounds cooler!!" I interupted.</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"And the litttle one in the middleish, is called, epsilon cru"</span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Hey!" Dilshen interupted.I was just looking at the map right, if you turn it a bit, the three mountains, lake, and little island match up to the southern cross!" Dilshen finished.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes!! So we must all have a special land mark thing! Where we belong!" </span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I belong in the lake!" Haylee claimed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"SAPPHIRES HOME!!!" Dilshen screamed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes!!" Kieran replied. "I think I belong here, where we are! Because I found my amulet in the furnace, which is fireish!" </span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah!! So where do I belong?" I asked.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, probably that little island, because it's kind of floating away from us kind of like air." Kim claimed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, So I think dilshen beongs at the biggest mountain, because I dreamt of him running up to it with his amulet." I claimed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Are you a physic or something?" Kieran asked.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Dunno" I replied.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, that must mean Kim belongs at the medium mountain, down the bottom of the island."</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, I'm Acrux" Kim said.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'm Mimosa" I grinned</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'm Gacrux" Kieran smiled.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'm Epsilon Cru" Haylee giggled.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"And that must mean I'm delta cru!" Dilshen claimed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"WOW!! It's alreday 10:00!! We better get some rest! We can go to the mountain tommorow!" I yelled, quickly getting ready to cook some spaghetti.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K! So tommorow, we'll go to the lake and look around it!" I planned.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"But the riddle said we must DIVE to sapphires home, so doesn't that involve swimming in water?" Dilshen asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, yeah, but Haylee's water so the mutantising, will not affect her." Kim claimed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"And I could put an air bubble around myself, and go under." I grinned.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Cool! So you two will come and get us if you find anything, right?" Kieran asked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Right." Haylee and I replied.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">'But for now, lets get some rest." I insisted. </span><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Goodnight everyone!"</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span> </p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span> </p>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-74783104284481865672009-12-02T11:44:00.000-08:002009-12-02T11:48:46.105-08:00Day 9<span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke up super early, determined to find my amulet, I shook awake my group. Jumped into a capsule, and flew off towards my amulet. Wherever it was.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We had flown around for a whole two hours, and couldn't find anything. I was about to turn around, thinking this was useless, when I saw an amulet, floating in front of me, I Grinned<br /><br />"You guys!!! LOOK!!!!!" I screamed excitedly, excited to finally gain my 'power'. I took the diamond out of my pocket, and jumped up to grab the amulet.<br /><br /><br />"Yesssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I 'hissed'. Clicking the diamond into place Unfortunately, I didn't concentrate on where I was going, and as I looked up I realised I was heading straight towards one of the mountains!!!!!!!!!!! I screamed, and tightened my grip on my amulet, and closed my eyes tightly, getting ready to feel the crash . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br /><br /><br /><br />"*gasp*" I gasped, I hadn't crashed!!! I looked again behind me, seeing the other side of the mountain. Smiling, the capsule had saved my life again!! I grinned, and swerved back to my group.<br /><br /><br /><br />"MADDI!!!" Haylee yelled. "What happened? We saw you go kind of see through onto the mountain."<br /><br /><br />"I think the capsule saved me!! Look!" I grinned holding up my amulet.<br /><br /><br />"I wonder what you can control?" Kim asked.<br /><br /><br />"Well." Haylee started " I know that I can control water. While you guys were flying, I was being silly and wished that the lake was purple, and it was! I turned it back of course. But My gem is dark blue, and yours is light blue, so, I'm guessing, like, air, or flying." She finished.<br /><br /><br />'O..K" I said eagerly. And without thinking I jumped out of my capsule, watching it shatter to the ground, gasping, as I fell towards the ground. O.K Maddi, concentrate, aaaannnnd go! I thought to myself, and just as I was about to fall to the ground, I giggled, and sped up towards my group.</span><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span> </p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, I CAN FLY!!!!" I said speeding towards the space ship wanting to get a lot of rest for using my powers tomorrow</p><br /> </span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-74711148947629951412009-11-30T00:42:00.000-08:002009-12-02T11:44:16.040-08:00Day 8<span style="font-family:courier new;">------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-------------------------------------------------------------------<br />------------------------------------------------------------------<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">3:00 PM</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Kieran</span>! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Dilshen</span>! Kim! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Haylee</span>!" I gasped as they flew above me, seeming not even to notice me. I frowned and tried to fly with them, jumping like crazy, when suddenly a big gust of wind blew, I grinned, and lifted my arms up, causing the wind to blow upwards, like I was controlling it. I smiled, and flew towards them. Into the sunset.</span><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"*Gasp* *Cough Cough* *Gasp*" I woke.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">MADDIIIIIII</span>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I heard my group yell. As they all hugged me, grinning, I swear I felt a tear drip from my eye. I grinned hugging them once more and realised <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Haylee</span> was already awake. My memory started to drift back slowly. I shuddered, remembering my diamond pupils, and paleness. I shuddered again. </span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.K, I'm just gonna say it." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Kieran</span> said suddenly. " I can control fire."</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">MHHPPHHH</span>! Sure <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Kieran</span>, just because I've been <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">unconscience</span> for day, doesn't mean you can start playing tricks on me!!" I argued.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Uhhh</span>, one, you've been <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">unconscience</span> for two days. Half a day , one whole day, and another half a day."</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gulped.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"And <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">uhh</span>, two, I can prove it." He seemed so sure of himself.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K. go ahead" I said motioning him forward.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, my powers . . ." </span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">MPPPHHHPPHH</span>!" I interrupted.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Aren't so good, because I only discovered them yesterday." He said as he lifted his hands up, and as I watched I saw a medium sized ball of fire appear in his hands. He twisted it, and curved it until it was in the shape of an alien. I gasped.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, I guess you weren't lying." I gulped. I couldn't believe it! I mean, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Kieran</span> had just stood there, and used his hands to create fire, and it didn't even burn him at all!! I shivered, I wasn't sure if it was because I was cold, or if I was kind of scared. I looked over at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">Kieran</span> grinning away at me, and I felt for sure that I was capable of fainting for another two or so days.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"So, do you want to hear what I can do?!" Kim asked.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"What!!!!!!! You can do something too!!" I asked.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"We all can!" She replied. "But we're not so sure about you yet."</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"What!!!!!!! So you guys all have some super power except me??!!" I yelled.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"No. You might have one too!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Dilshen</span> replied.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So. One by one, tell me what you can 'do'" I ordered.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">They all stood in a line, and it began.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, I'm Kim, and I can control earth!" She grinned, and motioned her hands, for us to come outside, so I stood, and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">immediately</span> fell over, I was still unsteady, so <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">Dilshen</span> and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">Kieran</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">helped</span> me out. I sat down and observed Kim motion her hands in a circular direction, and suddenly up grew a tree, growing apples. I stood wide eyed. Really wide eyed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, but that's not all! Maddi, what's your favourite fruit?"</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">Ohhh</span>! I love this bit!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">Kieran</span> exclaimed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well," I gulped "I guess apricots?" I said.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K!" She grinned. "Those are quite tricky" She gulped. Poking her tongue out and motioning her hands towards the tree, suddenly a bunch of apricots, sprouted over the tree, I went to jump up and eat some, I was so hungry after not eating in two days, but I fell back over straight away.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Don't worry, I'll get you one." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">Haylee</span> offered.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Thanks <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">Haylee</span>!" I said.</span></p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Biting into it intently after she had given it to me.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K, so hi it's me <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24">Kieran</span>, and yeah as you saw before, I can control fire." He grinned.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gulped, rubbing my eyes.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Sorry, just checking if I'm dreaming." I said sarcastically.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hi! I'm <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25">Dilshen</span>! I can control space." He exclaimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Like, stars, or like floor space?" I asked.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"This" he said, pointing up to the sky, and making the stars come into view, and dance. He grinned, and motioned for them to go back up into their <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26">original</span> position. I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27">gulped</span>, and wondered ho w many times I was going to gulp today.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hi! I'm <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">Haylee</span>, and I'm not quite sure what I can control yet." She said "I think it's water." she guessed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Look." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">Dilshen</span> said. "You know those gems, well, they all fit into one of our amulets, mine is the black Onyx, like the night sky, Kim's is an emerald, because it's green, like earth, or, nature, or whatever, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">Kieran's</span> is a ruby, like red <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31">fireish</span>, And the dark blue sapphire fits in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32">Haylee's</span> amulet she found the other day. The only gem left is the diamond. That's yours we think. We just need to find you an amulet."</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Let's go!!" I yelled. Limping up to the spaceship to get a capsule, "Well, I'll just start off" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33">Kieran</span> said</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Me too!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34">Dilshen</span> said. I was about to ask what they were doing, when suddenly <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35">Kieran</span> burst into flames, and shot up into the air, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36">Dilshen</span> did some random thing, I think had something to do with space, and rose into the air as well. I blinked and continued running towards the space ship.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>6:00PM</em></strong></span><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span></strong><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37">WOOOOOOHOOOO</span>!!!!!!!!!" I Screamed, feeling the breeze blow across my face, P.S, this wasn't because I was flying, it was because I had found out a way to open the top of the capsule.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38">ZIIING</span>!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39">Kieran</span> yelled, Flying in a ball of flames, in twists and turns around me,</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40">KACHOW</span>!!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41">Dilshen</span> yelled, doing the same thing, </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Show offs!" I yelled grinning at them.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">O.K, this is useless, we'll come back tomorrow" I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42">announced</span>.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43">Haylee</span> said, and we flew back.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">When we got back, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_44">Haylee</span> showed us the different things she could do with water, putting out <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_45">Kieran's</span> fires and turning salt water into fresh water.etc.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I felt kind of left out, as I rolled over not facing the rest of my powerful group, I had to smile as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_46">Dilshen</span> made light-like stars dance above us. I sighed and fell asleep.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-7662272802098250122009-11-29T22:13:00.000-08:002009-11-30T00:03:20.240-08:00Day 7-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-84013390155701141952009-11-29T17:12:00.000-08:002009-11-29T17:29:59.697-08:00Day 6I woke, but something wasn't right. I stood up, and started walking around, my eyes were still closed. I think. I tried to look around, but everything was made of diamonds! I screamed.<br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"<br /><br />'Maddi!!" Kim screamed. "What's wrong?!"<br /><br />"I can't see!!" I exclaimed. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Turnig</span> around to face Kim. I think.<br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">AHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I heard Kim scream.<br /><br />"What?!" I demanded.<br /><br />"Y-y-y-you're e-e-eyes!!! t-t-they're m-m-made out of d-d-diamonds!!!!????"<br /><br />"What????!!" I screamed. Staring into the water, seeing my reflection. It was true!!!!! I was incredibly pale too!<br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!!" I screamed "What about <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Haylee</span>!?" I asked.<br /><br />"W-w-w-why do you ask <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">th</span>-<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">th</span>-that ??!!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Kieran</span> replied.<br /><br />'I don't know! I had a dream that me and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Haylee</span> died! So yeah!" I shivered.<br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Hayl</span>-l-lee?"Kim asked.<br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">MMMMMMM</span> YA?" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Haylee</span> replied turning around. I strained hard and realised that her pupils were also made of a rare <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">jem</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">SAPPHIRES</span>!!!???<br /><br />"O.K!! Whats happening??!!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">Haylee</span> asked. "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Woah</span>!! Maddi your eyes!!!!"<br /><br />"Yeah, you too!" I exclaimed. "I think it was those flowers!!" I claimed. "They looked kinda poisonous!! "<br /><br />"RADIOACTIVITY!!!!!!!!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Dilshen</span> claimed.<br /><br />"Yes!!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">Kieran</span> agreed.<br /><br />"But, I don't wanna be an alien!!! *puff puff puff* I *puff puff* Can't breath!!!"<br /><br /><br />-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-2997578657450806582009-11-26T22:38:00.000-08:002009-11-29T17:12:30.287-08:00Day 5<span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>5:15AM</em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke after having a terrible, terrible nightmare, the third, in four days. It was basically me and my group trapped, in our mountain, and there kept coming moments where, I was floating, staring up at the southern cross, then there was a few seconds when I was falling towards the ground, and then it started all over again. Anyway, where was I? Oh, right, I woke up.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I woke up sweating, and gasping, I quickly splashed a bit of water over my face, and decided I would take a short walk out and get some fresh air. I slipped on my jersey, and pushed the gold button, which immediately opened the door, I took the skeleton hand, so I could get back in. It was refreshing feeling the cold breeze creep across my face, inhaling the forest scent, I felt like it was christmas, thats what it smelt like, but it certainly, certainly, was not. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I heard a rustling from way down in the trees below me, not wanting to know what it was, I stepped backwards towards the ship, but then I looked closer, realising Marek and his group hadn't left yet. I was about to clamber back into the ship, when I noticed a little shelf like spot abouve the ship, I climbed up and sat in it, feeling calm. That's when I realised that it was more like a cave, I shuffled further back so I could lean against the back of the cave, noticing the beautiful view of the sun rising. Sighing. I looked down at my watch realising it was 5:30AM. Groaning, and crawling back down from my secret spot, promising myself I would come here again if I felt like it, I made my way back into our, ship.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>5:55AM</em></strong></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">After making a breakfast of half a high protein bar, and some water, we sat in a circle and discussed a group um, fly. We all had a shower, our home made one which was basically tipping a bucket ao warm water over us, in one of the secret caves. And then we all took one of the human capsules each.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Wooooooohoooooo!!" I screamed as I dipped and dived, in my capsule.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"This rocks!!!!" Haylee yelled.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I can fly!!!!!" Kieran yelled.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"The capsule can fly!" Kim yelled.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Kim, you killed it! It's not funny any more!" Dilshen groaned.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We flew for a whole hour, coming across, strange creatures, obviously the ones Marek's group was talking about. I gasped at their ugly tentacles, and multiple eyes. I was glad that I wasn't like that! I was just about to speak into the capsule speaker ( Which is why we could all hear each other) when I spotted the lake, supposedly radioactive. "Guys look! There's the lake!" I said.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Halyee's screams interupted my 'tour'. As I saw her and her capsule plummeting towards the lake. THE RADIO ACTIVE LAKE! I gasped zooming down to try and help Haylee, when it hit me. These capsule would rotect us from turning into mutants! I let out a sigh of relif.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Guys! She'll be O.k I think, the capsules are strong enough to protect her."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"You're right madz!" Haylee replied "I'm completeley fine!! Hey?! What's that?! It's like a. . .. crrrrrreeeeeeeeaaaakkkk"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee??!! We're losing you, Haylee!!??" I screamed. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I was about to start crying (seeing as Haylee was one of my best friends) when I heard a zzzzzzzzooooooooooommmmmmm. As Haylee's capsule flew back out of the water. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee!! Your O.K!!" Kim gasped.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We all flew back to the mountain repeating how worried we were and how glad we were that she was O.k. When we got back in the ship we all had pretty cheesy group hug.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Oh Haylee! I was so worried!' I assured her.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah we were like, 'where's Haylee!!!'" Kieran said.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So what happened down there!" Dilshen asked.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, at first I panicked, I'm not so good at controling the capsules. So I screamed. But my speaker wasn't working, then I discovered that I forgot to turn it on again. I turned it on just as Madz said that the capsule would protect me, I agreed, and then I saw a little amulet like Dilshen's and Kieran's, except an anklet one, so I used hook above my capsule, and grabbed it and tried to bring it in my capsule, but I couldn't, it was stuck, so I went deeper, and it turned out as I got deeper, the signal crackled more, so I couldn't hear you, I wriggled it loose, and came back up. " Haylee finished.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Wow!" Kim said. "I just noticed that all of your amulets have a different shape in the middle."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I wanna find an amulet." Me and Kim moaned in unison.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Lets go and try to find one for you guys!" Kieran proposed. I have a feeling these are more valuble than they seem!" He finished.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.k! Lets go!" Haylee yelled.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Be careful!" I warned. As we flew out to find two more amulets.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I pressed the lever forward, and flew towards the rest of my group.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hey! Guys, maybe there's one over on that little island!" I claimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I'll go see!!" Haylee said, flying towards it.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee!!! Be carefu. . . . ." I said as Haylee tumbled towards the sea.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"NOOOOOOOOO!!!" Kim screamed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We all flew down towards the beach, and got out of our capsules to start searching to see if we could spot Haylee.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"HAAAAAYYLEEEEEE!!!!" I screamed, looking into the depths of the ocean.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Some one has to go and save her!!!" Kieran exclaimed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I will!" I said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">So with that, I strapped myself into my capsule, pushed the lever forward and dove into the ocean after Haylee. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>5:00PM</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I tumbled and turned suddenly, realising I was stuck in a whirlpool</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I felt my mind spin, as I spun through the water. BOOOOMMPPPPHHFF!!</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I suddenly banged against the bottom of the ocean floor, controlling my capsule towards a big cave like thing to my left. I have to admit it felt kind of peaceful gliding through the water in the capsule. I reached the cave and realised that it was one of those caves with no water in, kind of like and air bubble cave. I stepped out of my capsule, and heard a rather large bang from around the corner of the cave, I grabbed a stick and shivered towards the sound, and was about to 'strike', when I saw . . . HAYLEE!!!!!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Haylee!" I screamed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Maddiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!" Haylee screamed back.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gave her a hug, and we walked towards our capsules. We were about to step in when we heard a huge bang, and the room shook.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee?! Look over there! " I exclaimed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I had noticed an uncanny crack in the wall. I walked over to it.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Look! This looks like it's been put there deliberatly!" I said as I rubbed my finger over it. Suddenly a little cubby hole appeared in front of me, I gasped and stepped back.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Wow!!!" Haylee gasped.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">There was a little clump of flowers, yellow with a green middle, and a purple stalk. Lying on top of the flowers was a brown box with strange carvings on it.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hey . . ." I said picking up the box.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">The room suddenly shook, causing the door to slowly start shutting.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Haylee!" I yelled. She nodded and sprinted with me towards the capsules, we jumped in them, me still grasping he strange box, and flew out of the cave in the nick of time.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>7:51PM</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" We *puff* found *puff* these." I said exhaustively, handing the box to Dilshen.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes, this is weird." Kim exclaimed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Open *puff* it!" Haylee said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.K" Kieran said obediently unlatching it, and staring into it with wonder.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"What *puff*" I demanded.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"There are 5 very valuable jewels in here!" Dilshen replied.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Cool!*puff*" Haylee replied.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We better get you back!" Kieran claimed. "You guys are looking pale!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O *puff* K</span> " <span style="font-family:courier new;">I replied.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">And with that, we flew back home, and while the rest of my group ate, Haylee and I, went to sleep, I felt like I was about to spew up. Not a good end to a good day.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-1593205863502452722009-11-26T14:12:00.000-08:002009-11-26T15:38:22.876-08:00Day 4<span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>10:00AM</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke up later than usual, I noticed, while looking at my reflection, that I needed a shower, clean clothes, and maybe even a bit of lip gloss, or shampoo.And an urgent hairdresser! I chuckled, knowing that my appearance wasn't exactly the most important thing right now. Considering our, low supply of food, and warmth.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I walked over to my bag, picked out my secret strawberry flavoured lip balm, I had not told my teacher about (We were only allowed to bring ten items) and applied it. Using my hands to detangle my hair into a slightly more live-with-able hairstyle, if that makes sense. I then used the bottom of my top to wash my face, and sighed, smiling at the new reflection.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">After waking up my group, eating some spaghetti, and kind of, cleaning the rest of our 'spaceship'. We sat and waited for Marek and his group to appear. We sat and talked about trying to fly this spaceship back home, and what we were going to do once we got there. I was about to talk about figuring out that weird storm, when we heard a large series of knock on our door. I pressed a the button to make the screens come out, and we all saw Marek and his group standing outside dragging their three backpacks. I opened the door, and we greeted Marek, Jordan, Asser, and Ben.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"How are you guys?" I asked. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Alright" Jordan replied.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, yeah." Marek said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I turned to my group and whispered.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We need to get rid of them. We know they're O.k now , they'll want our supplies, and there's a lot more people if they join us."</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So . . . ." I started. "You know there's this other cabin over by the big mountain. It has basically the same as our spaceship except it's smaller, and there's only four of you. You could move there!" I tricked.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Cool! O.K. Thanks!!" And with that, they walked off.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I feel sooooooo bad." I cried.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Don't worry, you had a point there!" Dilshen assured.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">VVVVVRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I jumped with fright as I heard one of the capsules start up. I turned around to see Kim flying unsteadily in one of them.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"KIIIIIIIM!" We yelled, as she flew out of the door, and into the 'unknown'.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>3:00PM</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We waited.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We waited.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We waited.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">And after about 4 hours, Kim flew back into the spaceship, looking scared. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Kim! What were you thinking??!!" I scolded.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I wanted a turn on one of these. Now do you want me to tell you what I discovered or not?"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We nodded and listened.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, I flew around and tried to fly out of the island, but I couldn't, kind of like a forcefield around the island, so I flew really low, and there was like a gap, in the forcefield, so I flew out, and the outside of the island was all, rotten and gross, like I can't explain it, there was no sun, stars, moon, anything. I panicked, and flew back in." Kim finished.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, theres like a forcefield around Matainui, protecting us from the pollution outside. Maybe it was put there bye these aliens?" Haylee queried.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes!!" I yelled.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, the aliens are kind of good." Kieran claimed.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Either that, or there are some good and some bad." Dilshen said.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, did we go forward in time?" I asked.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Maybe." Kim replied "Maybe"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em><a>7:00PM</a></em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><em>The day has gone so fast.</em> I thought to myself.<em> This island is more than it seems. We need to figure out the secrets of this island</em></span> . <span style="font-family:courier new;">I thought. As I closed my eyes and thought again, how fast the day had gone.</span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-167144422768269802009-11-22T16:36:00.000-08:002009-11-26T14:41:24.777-08:00Day Three.<span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>1:05AM</em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke to silence, puzzled, Why would there be silence? The noise of the birds the day before, I thought for sure that I would have been able to hear it. I frowned, as I looked at my watch and realised that it was only just 1:05AM. I sighed. Feeling my eyelids flutter. When I heard a small vibration, and felt a small glow stretch across my face. I froze, and went across to wake up Kim. "Kim!!! Look!" I said. I pointed to the pinkish purplish glow, that seemed to be oozing out of the walls. "What is it?" Kim asked. "I don't know, we should ask the rest of the group!!" I exclaimed. "O.k" I agreed.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We woke up the rest of our group, and we walked over to the walls of our room we were staying in. I wiped away some of the crust, and it revealed a clear kind of glass, that seemed to be glowing. "Wow! You guys over here look!" I yelled. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">SSSHHHHH</span>!!! People are trying to sleep!" </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Ha ha!" I sarcastically replied.</span><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Wow!" My group agreed.</span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:100%;">After about 20 minutes, we had exposed all of our room, it was all glowing!!</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:100%;"><strong><em>4:00 AM</em></strong></p></span><br />"WOW!!!! IT'S LIKE A SPACESHIP!!!" I exclaimed.<br /><br /><br /><br />"But where are all of the 'control panels'?" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Haylee</span> asked.<br /><br /><br />"Try to find a button" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Dilshen</span> yelled.<br /><br /><br /><br />we all searched around for ages, but couldn't find anything.<br /><br /><br />"Hey you guys over here!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Kieran</span> yelled. "what's this?" He was standing next to the fire place. There seemed to be a small button at the back of it. "I'll push it!!"<br /><br /><br />"No!! Kim! Don..."<br /><br /><br />I was interrupted by the sudden shaking of the room. I looked around to see that the walls were sliding out to reveal . . . . . . . CONTROL PANELS!!!!!<br /><br /><br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">AHHHHHHHHHHH</span>!!!!! WE"RE IN AN ALIEN SPACESHIP!!!!!!!!!!!"<br /><br /><br />I fainted.<br /><br /><br /><strong><em>10:00 AM</em></strong><br /><br /><br />I woke to a cold icy feeling.<br /><br /><br />"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">UGHGH</span> *cough* Who *cough* splashed water on me!!" I spluttered.<br /><br />"Sorry, but you fainted!!!" Replied <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">Haylee</span>.<br /><br />"O.k then." I replied.<br /><br />I took another look at the "alien spaceship"<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:100%;">"So, we SHOULD</span> </span><span style="font-size:100%;">live here!! We could like, learn how to control this and fly back home!"</span><br /><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"What will all of the other groups do?"</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"We'll come back for them!!" I assured Kim.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">So with that, we started pushing as many buttons as possible. When suddenly a chamber appeared out of the wall. I walked in to it, and saw five capsule-like machines. "Hey, look! This seems like a keyboard!" I yelled, "There's an imprint of some sort on this."</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">It was a long bony imprint of a hand. . . . . But something was wrong with the hand . . . IT ONLY HAD THREE FINGERS AND A THUMB!!</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">I scampered backwards bumping into <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Dilshen</span> and causing everyone to fall over. "Look! There's an imprint of an alien hand!!" I screamed to my group.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"So THAT'S how we control this. We obviously can't control it with human hands, what about alien ones!!!"</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"How will we get them??" Kim asked</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"I don't know" Replied <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Haylee</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;">"I do." I stuttered "But I don't like the sound of my idea."</span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;"><strong><em>3:00PM</em></strong></p></span><p>"<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">EWWW</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">EWW</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">EWWW</span>.<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">EWWWWWWWW</span>!!!" I moaned. </p><p>"Don't moan, this was your idea!" <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Kieran</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">repiled</span>.</p><p>"Yeah, but why did <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Dilshen</span> get to stay behind?" I cried.</p><p>"someone has to guard the ship." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Kieran</span> said.</p><p>" I don't exactly want to go back to that cave either." <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">Haylee</span> moaned</p><p>"Well, that's the only way we can find an alien hand!! You said that there were bones in there! So we can go in, and collect one to use on the control panel!" Kim Reasoned.</p><p>"I know, but <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">EWWW</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">EWW</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">EWWW</span>. <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">EWWWWWWWW</span>!!" I replied.</p><p>As we walked through the tunnel of doom, which is what it felt, and smelt like. I started to feel more and more . . . how would you say it. . . Wrong? </p><p>We reached the cave and we looked around for a full 12 minutes until we could find a decent hand, that had four fingers. We trekked back through the slimy,dark tunnel. With me <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">EEEWWWing</span> close behind. Once we had reached the space ship again we were about to turn to <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">Dilshen</span> when we realised that he was nowhere to be seen. We all started yelling out <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24">Dilshen's</span> name, as you usually do when your searching for someone. </p><p>I walked over to the chamber we just found "Hey you guys! One of the capsules are missing!!" I gasped. It was then that I noticed that there was another long line of five capsules behind these ones, they were different from these ones, they had alien indents, for aliens to fit into, they were smaller, but still had the same four fingered hands. Wow! These are like, the perfect shape for me and Kim! They're tiny!" I grinned.</p><p>"No time to worry about that! Where's Dilshen??!!" Kim worried.<br /></p><p>"Well, peice two and two together! Dilshen's missing, and so is one of the capsule thingys! Either he flew the capsule somewhere, or the aliens came back and flew away with him!"</p><p>'They couldn't have flewn away with him, because only one person can fit in those capsules, and even if there were aliens, wouldn't we have seen them coming through the tunnel?! This spaceship's obviously been abanoned by all aliens, or "cleared" of them." Haylee said. I gulped.</p><p>"O.k so we have to go out and look for Dilshen." Kieran said.</p><p>"I really can't be bothered going back through that tunnel, or climbing out that small window, this spaceship MUST have a door. I'm going to look for it."</p><p>" Sure, but hurry! Dilshen may be in danger" Kim urged.</p><p>We went around trying to find some sort of button with a door symbol or something. I grinned, as I laid eyes on two big gold buttons containing pictures of the outside of our spaceship.</p><p>"Hey guys! This must be it!" I yelled. Without thinking I pushed the left button, and the room rumbled, and shook, a small opening revealed itself and in flew in one of the capsules containing a grinning Dilshen.</p><p><strong><em>6:00PM</em></strong></p><p>"You guys wanna hear the good news first, or the bad news?"</p><p>"Good" I urged, wanting to hear the positives first, as always.</p><p>"O.k so, while you were gone, I discovered that there were actually two types of capsules, one that I could easily fit in it without a skeleton thing. The other ones are a bit smaller, have weird indents, and need to use a alien hand to control them, Kim and Maddi can fit in them, because they're a bit shorter than us."</p><p>"Cool!" Haylee yelled.</p><p>"And the bad news?" Kieran asked</p><p>"Well, Marek , you know one of our class mates?' He's walking towards our space ship." Dilshen informed us.</p><p><strong><em>9:00PM</em></strong></p><p>"Well, I think I know what to do" I grinned. Walking over to the gold buttons, and pointing to the right one. "This button must open the door, because the left one opened the roof."</p><p>"don't push it, look!" Kim yelled, I looked towards the door to see two screens sliding out of the wall. They were showing Marek knockinr rapidly on the door.</p><p>"Should we let him in??" I puzzled.</p><p>"Yes, we should, he could be the only other room eightennian left apart from us, lets let him in!" Kim reasoned.</p><p>"O.k," I chose.</p><p>I pressed the button, smiling when the door opened, knowing my hypothesis about the door was right.</p><p>"Sup!!"</p><p>Marek yelled.</p><p>"Hi Marek, how are you. O.k that's kind of a lome thing to say, but yeah." I fumbled.</p><p>" Have you seen anyone else on the island?" Dilshen asked.</p><p>"Yeah heaps of people, well, I wouldn't say people"</p><p>"what do you mean?" Haylee asked.</p><p>" The water in that lake, it's radio active, heaps of people have walked in it, and are like, mutants."</p><p>"you mean like aliens?" Kieran asked.</p><p>"Yeah some, some are like, man eating trees and stuff, we almost got eaten by one on the way here, there's also, like silver people flying around."</p><p>We stood wide mouthed staring at him.</p><p>"I wanna fly!!" I joked.</p><p>swarms of laughter escaped from my group, and Marek.</p><p>"So are you with anyone else??" Kim asked.</p><p>"Yeah, Jordan, Ben, Me, Asser, "</p><p>"Oh, I'm glad they're O.k too!" I said</p><p>"Yeah" Kieran agreed.</p><p>"So, do you need anything?" Haylee asked.</p><p>"No, we're fine. We've got like three bags anyway. "</p><p>"We're fine too." I said.</p><p>"Bye, I'll bring my group up here to see you tomorrow!"</p><p>"Marek wai . . ."</p><p>I was too late, he was already running down he mountain.</p><p>"I always thought he was weird." Dilshen said.</p><p>We all laughed at his joke and sat down to a dinner of baked beans, and warm water.</p><p>"So should we get some sleep now, for tommorrow?" I asked. Looking down at my watch "It's 10:00 PM" I said staring out into the night.</p><p>"Sure" My group said.</p><p>And with that,. I lay down and slept with a smile on my face, knowing that most of our class was still safe, maybe not human, but safe. I also smiled because of the technology we were privilaged with, and I was almost certain, that we were going to be alright.</p><p></p><p></p>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-89960655199609538232009-10-29T12:27:00.000-07:002009-11-18T14:38:01.777-08:00Day two!<span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>Day two</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em></em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>7:00 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke to the annoying, deafening sound of the birds singing. The more I listened the more annoyingly beautiful it started to sound. I yawned, and crawled out of the tent, trying not to wake anyone. I planned to get some fire wood, light a fire, and boil some salt water, which I've heard purifies it. I still had 5 protein bars, but I plan to give my group some tinned fruit for breakfast, saving the protein bars for our hike towards the mountain.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I took out the metal pan I brought, and filled it with water, then I lit a match, after trekking around trying to find dry fire wood, and soon, there was a nice, warm fire burning. I took out three cans of peaches, and emptied the first aid kit to pour the water in. I took a sip of the hot water, shivered, and gazed towards the tent, deciding to let my group rest for at least another half an hour, I laid on my bag, and closed my eyes. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>9:00</em></strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong><em>AM </em></strong></span></span></p><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke up, sweating, gasping for air, after a nightmare, I dreamt that we walked to the mountain, and our group turned on each other. It was terrible. I turned around to see Haylee, and kieran sitting on the log I transferred as a seat in front of the fire. They half smiled at me, and then continued staring out to the sea. I winced, and felt my throat prickle, my stomach knot, and my eyes water, I hugged my knees, and whimpered. </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span></p><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Come sit with us!" Haylee whispered. I dragged my feet towards the log, and sat between Haylee and Kieran. They tried to comfort me, but I just couldn't shake the feeling, that something bad was about to happen.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>9:15 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:85%;"></span></em></strong><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Why didn't you guys wake us? I feel bad that you were all waiting for us! You could've started eating!"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah! I feel bad too!"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Dilshen agreed with Kim.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I smiled and pulled out the fresh water and peaches, my group smiled back at me and we ate in silence. After washing our dishes in some more fresh water I boiled, we used the towel to dry the first aid kit, put all of the supplies back in it, and sat in our tent to plan the day.</span></p><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>10:00</em></strong></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>A</em></strong></span><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>M</em></strong></span></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">I poured the left over peaches into one of the cans, and decided to carry them to the mountain incase anyone got hungry, it would also save the high protein bars. We were going to have 5 minutes each, carrying the bag. I was first off. I sighed looked back at th beach, making sure we hadn't left anything, and saw something shimmer in the sand. I gasped grasping my neck, I had almost lost my lucky charm necklace from my mum! I felt my eyes water again, grabbed my necklace and ran to catch up to the rest of the group.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Sticks, and twigs flicked at my face, I was leading the way, I had studied the maps for this island a lot, so I practically knew it inside out I took out some insect repellant, after swatting away the last mosquito I could handle and applied it, I offered it to my group and we continued walking. We reached the mountain after about 3 hours. We were all exhausted and collapsed at the bottom of the mountain, gasping for breath, we drank from our 4 litre water bottle. And I helped bandage up Kim's sprained ankle. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I trekked up half the mountain with the rope, tied it to a tree, and yelled down to the rest of my group. They used the rope to assist them in climbing up the mountain, and then me, being my clumsy self, tripped over a tree root. exposing a concrete block, that seemed to be "part" of the mountain. I gasped ripping away the rest of the foliage covering the rest of the concrete blocks, and gasped. WAS THE ENTIRE MOUNTAIN MAN MADE!!??</span> <span style="font-family:courier new;">The whole mountain seemed to be made out of these 1.5 by 1.5 metre concrete blocks. I was starting to think that this mountain wasn't even a mountain. I WAS man made!</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"It's not even a mountain!" I gasped.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"It's some sort of pyramid" Dilshen exclaimed.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We stood in silence. And after about 2 minutes, we started walking again. Breathing heavily, and pretty soo we could see the top of the mountain. I grinned, glad we were almost there, and Kieran ran towards the top of the mountain. I stopped hoping that there would still be a fresh water spring, even though this wasn't really a mountain any more. I was just about to sigh once more, when I saw Kieran fall downwards into a kind of hole, in the mountain.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I screamed</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"KKIIIEEERRRRAAAAANNN!!!!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I ran towards the hole and gasped, it seemed as if there was a block deliberatly missing, it led down towards a sort of cave. Kieran chuckled, I put on my "serious face"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" That wasn't funny, I'm scared enough as it is!!! Get back up here!!!"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Kieran chuckled again, and I peered down into where he had fallen. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Wow! It's some sort of cave! Lets investigate! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I'll go down ther . . ."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"No!" Dilshen interupted, "I'll go with Kieran!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"O.k then !" I agreed. "But you need to bring your whistle Kieran. In case something happens. Blow it if anything goes wrong, then we'll know when to start really panicking!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Funny funny." Kieran replied.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I smiled poked out my tounge and continued.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">So after we had tied the rope around their waists, and given Kieran the whistle, the slowly jumped down the step-like blocks.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"WAIT!!" I called. "Take this!" I said pulling out a torch from the survival kit. "It might come in handy!" I said sarcastically. I smiled at the guys, and watched, as they dissapeared into the darkness.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . </span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>12:00<span style="font-size:85%;">PM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We waited for at least half an hour. And then suddenly, we heard that ear peircing sound echoing through the caves.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"BLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gasped. Haylee, and Kim did too. "I'll go to help them!!" Kim exclaimed. "No Kim! We need someone stronger to go down!" I replied. We agreed that I would go dow, so I gulped, and walked downwards, into the darkness, hopefully towards Dilshen and Kieran.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>12:34 <span style="font-size:85%;">PM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">"Diiiiilshen???? Kiiiieran!??" I yelled warily. I stepped into a small corridor, there were large rows of columns, along the edges of the passageway. There were strange engravings in the walls, and right at the end of the corridor was one of the largest engravings of all, a lagre eye, with a curl coming down from the corner of it. I gasped, and came to a fork in the corridor, I frowned, and called out again. "DIIIIILSHEN!!!!!!!!!!! KIIIEERAN!!!!!!!!!" "BBBBLLLLLLEEEEEPPPP!!" I gasped and ran towards the sound, "Keep whistling!!!!! I can hear you!!!" I yelled. "BBBBLLLLLEEEEEPPPP!!!!" I came to a stop at a dark room. I was about to step forward when i heard a loud, worried voice. "STOOOOP! Be careful! I'm down here, there is a long cliff, be careful!!!!" I looked down. Gasped, and stepped backwards. " I've got a rope! You can grab onto it, I'll try to pull you up!" I fumbled with the rope, then grasped an end, tied it to one of the strange collumns, and heaved. It took a lot of work, but after a while, Dilshen was standing beside me, sighing.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Are you O.k?" Whats all that dust all over you?"</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I fell into a mummified body. I found this around it."</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">He lifted up a necklace with the same eye symbol as before, in the corridor. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hey! I saw that symbol in that corridor!! Mysterious."</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah."</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Where's Kieran?" </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"He ran off. He wanted to split up. But I didn't he ran off with the torch."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" So he's abandoned us?!"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" I think he's coming back, if he can find his way."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" Hope he's alright"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah same"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We walked past the eye engraving, and I frowned, "Dilshen see if that amulet matches the engraving"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Dilshen held the amulet up to the engraving, and the room rumbled, and shook. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Dilshen! What's happening???!!!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We have to get out of here!!!"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We ran towards the exit, just as the stone locked in place. There was now no way in, and no way out.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>2:34 <span style="font-size:85%;">PM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We gasped up to Haylee and Kim, without Kieran, we told them about our discoveries, without kieran then we told them about kieran, without kieran. Lastly we told them about the eye, and the rock closing the enterance.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So have we lost Kieran . . . . . Forever?" Kim exclaimed</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Dun dun duuuuuuuun. Sorry I just had to add that!" I giggled.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Sup guys"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I gasped and turned around to see kieran clambering over the other side of the mountain.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Kieran!!?? Where'd you go? How'd you get back here?" I asked. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">To be honest, I had soooo many questions, that I didn't really know where to start.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, it's a long story. I don't really know where to start."</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"How about at the beginning?!" I added.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Good idea" He replied and we listened, not sure what we were about to hear.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, what happened was . . . . . . well, I ran off away from Dilshen becaus . . "</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"You wanted to split up but he didn't yeah, continue." I interrupted.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, I continued on, to this big corridor, and I was walking along" Kieran said motioning skipping." When suddenly I fell in a large hole. I screamed, which you didn't really need to know, and then I realised that I had fallen on a large pile of bones. I felt a breeze and realised that there was a long tunnel ahead of me. I followed the tunnel and as I went on, the bones got more and more deformed and the heads got more and more cone shaped." I shivered at Kieran's story thinking about aliens and evil creatures, I shook off the thoughts and continued listening. "So I came to this room, it was dark and had a few more of those engravings. There was a huge basket, with a lever inside it, I pulled it, and the basket went up, into another room, there was a furnace in it, and old blacksmith gear, I also saw a big window looking out onto the island. I was about to climb out the window, to meet you guys, when I saw a necklace thing. See?" He held up a amulet identical to Dilshens one.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Hey!! Dilshen found a necklace just like that!! After you abadoned him, he fell down into a hole, and crushed a dead mummified body under him. He found this."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I beckoned for Dilshen to hold up his amulet. "Maybe it means something. Mysterious." Said Haylee. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"It could be like a club thing. I wonder how many we can find?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I don't know, but Kieran, you said you climbed out a window right?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Was it leading to that room with the furnace?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yes. Why do you need to know this?????"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I think we should live/camp there. It's safe, warm, dry, right?"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Yeah. It's got a fire too! We could use that for cooking!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Good idea, so it's safe, dry, and has got stuff that could help keep us alive!!!!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, then, lets go! We've got to get there before anyone else finds it!!!!"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">And with that, we walked off towards our new home. Fingers crossed.</span><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em></em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>4:00 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Warm peaches aren't the best lunch, but we were starving, and anything was good enough. As we chomped down the slimy orange food, gulping down the fresh water haylee and I ran up to collect, from the spring at the top of the mountain, I looked around at our new home grasping my necklace tightly, every now and then, clicking it open, staring at my family. Whimpering slightly. I stared down at my torn clothes, and whimpered more. I remembered my mum hugging me, kissing me on the for head, and giving me these clothes that she had brought especially for this occasion. I whimpered again.</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"I was thinking," Kim interupted my thoughts, "That we could like, dig a hole in the roof or something, under the stream thing, and so the water drips down to us."</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"We don't know what we would be digging into, there could be more bones, or amulets, or chambers blah blah blah." I said, I wasn't in the mood for social butterflying. I closed my eyes, and slowly drifted, drifted, to sleep.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>7:00 <span style="font-size:85%;">PM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:180%;"><strong><em>"MADDI!!!!"</em></strong></span></div><br /><div align="center"><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:180%;"></span></em></strong></div><br /><div align="center"><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:180%;"></span></em></strong></div><br /><div align="center"><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:180%;"></span></em></strong></div><br /><div align="left"><span style="font-family:courier new;">I woke up startled, half expecting it to be dark, but it turned out that it was still kind of sunny.</span></div><br /><div align="left"><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"You fell asleep."</span></div><br /><div align="left"><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"mmm Yeah I guess I YAWN did.

Behind the constant chattering, we could hear the hum of the bus constantly swerving in different directions. </span></div><br /><div><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;">9:15 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></span></em></strong></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">A</span><span style="font-family:Courier New;">fter about fifteen minutes,we stepped out of the bus, and I gained that sickly feeling you always seem to get once you step off a vehicle after a long journey.I yawned, stretched, and walked towards the sandy beach of Kawhia.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">We were all buzzing with excitement as we sat down to eat our lunch on those old mossy tables that always have birds all around them. I didn't feel like eating after the bus ride, so I threw most of my sandwiches to the ducks, and they seemed to thank me. Weird.</span></div><br /><div><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;">9: 25 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></span></em></strong></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"RRRRRRUUUUUUUMMMMMM" The plane, or should I say brick, literally it was HUGE!! Not as in, lots-of-space, as in thick! If you have any spare time, you know, and you're bored, you should check out a picture of one. But for now, I'll just explain it to you. Well, the exterior of the "Grumman HU-16 Albatross" had two thick envelope white wings, and there was about 12 windows, that were about 30 Cm's across and 30 Cm's down. "AYE! Welcome to Kawhia harbour. I see you're looking at this here fine sea plane! Well, shiver me timbers! Ye are! I'll be ye co-pilot, David Woodcock for this here journey across the seven skies! Please step in single file into this hear sea plane, and sit in ye groups! Aye!!!!"</span></div><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"Well, come on me Hearties, what are ye waiting for???!!!"</span></div><br /><div><strong><em><span style="font-family:Courier New;font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:100%;">9:30</span> AM</span></em></strong></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">After giggling at Mr Woody's ridiculous pirate outfit and impersonation, we did what we were told, and walked in single file, with a few odd students walking in two's. And sat in our groups, my group sat in the second row from the front, and after chatting with Kieran, who was sitting beside me, and Haylee who was sitting to the left of me, I buckled my seat belt, and chatted some more.</span></div><br /><div><em><strong>9: 35 <span style="font-size:78%;">AM</span></strong></em></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:courier new;">"RRRUUUUUUUMMMMMMMM" The plane hummed some more, as we wriggled around in our seats, buzzing more than bee's, which , as you may know, buzz quite a lot. "CCCRRRRACCCKKLLLEE CCCRREEAKKK" I covered my ears as the intercom crackled, and creaked, which was caused by some one obviously using it for the first time, in a very long time, at least I think that's why it crackled, I doubt it was because it disliked whoever was trying to speak into it. However, if I had've known then, who was about to speak into the intercom, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold in an "eeekk" either.</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>9:40 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong> </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"HELLO!!!!!!! This is you're pilot speaking! My name is Sam! Now, before you start freaking out, and reminding me that I am only twelve don't worry, I have had tests, to see if I am a suitable pilot, and I passed all of them." </span></div><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">Everyone went silent. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"So, have a nice flight!!"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">The rest of the flight was completely silent, and behind the rattles of the Grumman HU-16 Albatross, you could hear a variety of gulps, sighs, whimpers, and the occasional shuffling around in seats. " O.k so here's what I know" I murmured to whoever was listening, " Sam is only 12" I was very surprised when sudden sounds of agreement were made by literally everyone in my class, almost as if they were waiting for someone brave enough to break the silence, and, to be honest, I wasn't expecting that to be me. " We need to stay calm, It's a nice day, Sam's flying skills seem to be genuine, and we havn't crashed yet, so far, nothing <em>that</em> bad has happened." I was trying to be the strong one, you know reassuring everyone, and it seemed to be working, as I looked around I saw that everyone was nodding in agreement. I was just about to reassure some more, when a large "BBOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!" Interupted my efforts.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>10:10 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">After another series of creeeeaaakkks and ccccrrraakkles we turned our heads towards the old intercoms, just in time to hear Sam's worried voice, "uuuhhhh. There has been some unreported lightning, and thunder, aaannnddd rain, but, no need to uhhh worry, we will be arriving shortly" I strained towards the intercom just enough to hear a little "I hope" at then end of his sentence, and then everything went crazy.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>10:15</em></strong> <strong><em><span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"AHHHHHHHH" "NOOOOOOOO" "II WAAAANNA LIIIIIIVE"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"CALM DOWN!!!!!!!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I yelled, remembering my imaginary job as, what would you call it? A brave knight? A mature person? A some what leader? Kind of all of them I guess. Anyway, where was I up to? oh, right,sorry</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"CALM DOWN!!!!!!!!!"</span><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /> <span style="font-family:courier new;">I yelled racing up to the front of the plane where everyone could see me </span>"<span style="font-family:courier new;">everyone, this is serous! Grab hold of your bags,and buckle your seat belts!! Choose a partner, and stick with them, to make sure thet're O.K if anything happens". It didn't take long after my " if anything <em>happens</em>" for the screams to start up again "TRUST ME!!! WE NEED TO STAY CALM!!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">"she's right!!"<br />"yeah she is"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I looked beside me to see all of my group members standing beside me, supporting me. I smiled, mouthed "thank you" and continued.<br /></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">" Once again, hold tightly onto your bags and choose a partner!"</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I glimpsed at Kim, nodded and continued again " So once you've done that, buckle into your seat be . . . . . ." I was interupted by the sudden weightless feeling, as I floated around the cabin "O.k? Why are we floating?" I was floating around towards my seat with Kim close behind, I was just about to join Kieran and Dilshen, who were already in their seats, when I noticed Haylee behind Kim still at the front of the plane, looking worried, obviously, " Kim, we have to help Haylee! She's still at the front of the plaaannn . . . . "</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I was again interrupted, and to be honest it was getting to be quite annoying, by the end of the weightlessness, and I slammed down towards the floor, feeling a sharp pain shoot through my ankle, I winced, as you tend to do after a painful experience, and crawled towards Haylee and Kim, and noticed that Kim seemed to be experiencing the same shot of pain. I glanced towards Haylee to see that she was dead, well, not dead, unconscious, I gasped, and helped Kim carry her back to her seat. We got her to her seat just before another series of rumbles started up again. the plane seemed to suddenly start spiralling downwards, TOWARDS THE SEA!!!! "O.k, I never passed my pilot tests!!" I heard Sam admit as we were plummeting towards the silky, aqua-coloured ocean.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>10:50 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I joined the chorus of screaming, </span><span style="font-family:courier new;">"took my own advice", and</span><span style="font-family:Courier New;"> grasped my bag tightly, keeping an eye on Haylee, making sure she would get out alive. Yes, I had predicted that we were about to crash into the sea. So I stood up, opened the hatch on the roof of the plane, and told Kim, Kieran, and Dilshen to jump. No, I'm not crazy, but I knew that we might get more hurt if we stayed in the plane so I helped Kim, Kieran and Dilshen carry Haylee and, well, to put it simply, we jumped.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>11:00 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I felt the icy cold water engulf me as I felt the burning in my chest while I was fighting like crazy, through the water for breath. I felt my fingers "grasp" the air, followed suit, and fought hard, to get my head above the water, just as much as my fingers were. Straight after I gained enough Oxygen, I looked around to see Kieran and Dilshen helping each other to shore, I smiled, proud of how well my "choose a partner" instructions were working. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I froze, remembering Haylee, and Kim, and swam in a circle trying to find them. I spotted Kim, breathing heavily, and trying desperately to keep Haylee's head above the water. I swam over to them , and helped Kim drag Haylee to shore. Everyone in my group was safe. I looked around at everyone panicked faces, and realised that no one had save their bags. I panicked, looked out towards the ocean, and saw my bag floating further out towards the sea, without thinking, I dived into the ocean, in which I nearly drowned, and free-styled towards my bag. After what seemed like hours, I reached my bag and towed it to shore, looking out to try and spot other bags. I failed dragging my soaking wet bag towards my group. Suddenly I heard a loud "BBBOOOMMM" and turned towards the ocean to se the Grumman HU-16 Albatross plummeting towards the ocean.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>11:05 <span style="font-size:85%;">AM</span></em></strong></span><br /><br /><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">I covered my eyes not wanting to see the disaster. and after another long series of screaming, I peeked through my cold hands, to see a group of people swimming towards the shore, and then it hit me. I ran towards my group and started talking.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">"O.k so here's what's gonna happen, do you remember the maps we looked at for this island?" Murmurs of agreement came from my group. I continued. "yeah well, I just reaslied that we only have 3 litres of water, right? So we need to get to that small mountain nearby, that has a fresh water spring, we need to walk across this beach, and get to that mountain, It will take about two days, so we'll put up the tent in my bag, and sleep on that beach before the small mountain, then we'll walk up to the mountain to the fresh-water spring. O.k?"</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;">I heard mumbles of agreement from my group, so I nodded and lead the way.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Courier New;"><strong><em>6:00 <span style="font-size:85%;">PM</span></em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">I sat on the beach, grasping for five protein bars, and handed them out to my now exhausted group, despite our circumstances, I was smiling, I had become a real leader since we landed on the island, and thanks to me, we now have a plan, and have already accomplished half of it, us already being on the beach. I also grinned at the tent, I had kept in my bag, and reminisced about the full 12 minutes it took to put up the tent, and lastly I smiled at my group, my safe group, sitting by the fire, we had lit with my matches. I picked at my protein bar, sipped some water from our 4 litre drink bottle, and smiled, once more. </span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;"><strong><em>6:30 PM</em></strong></span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">Sure, 6:30<em> is </em>a pretty early time to go to sleep, but I managed to convince my group that we needed a lot of sleep, after what we had been through. They quietly nodded. And we all went to sleep, we all slept in a long row, using the communal blanket to keep warm. I lay still, thinking, you may wonder what I was thinking about, well you know everything, how we were going to get off the island, how we were going to survive etc. I was just about to think about my family, when I felt my eye lids flicker.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:courier new;">And then the darkness closed in.</p><p><br /></p></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span>pinkyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15831668045634146587noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876633054225305306.post-67983113412291008502009-10-18T21:42:00.000-07:002009-10-18T21:53:15.346-07:00Research.<span style="color:#993399;">Hi!!

You may have some information that will be needed in an emergency situation. For instance, lightning appears.
