Action:

She woke up with ferns growing up her arm, teeth getting closer and closer to her face. She knew she had to do something, but what? He had warned her about this book, but she never thought it would come to this! Why? Why hadn’t she just listened? Just once?



Character Introduction:

I got this book from my father, it was called how to rule the world in less than one week. The book wasn’t just any book, but it was THE book. It had everything thing in it, it knew every word every scenario that could happen, everything, the best part was that everything that I had tried from the book actually worked! But again my book outsmarted me and noticed it didn’t need my help, it could rule the world all on it’s own. That’s when the problems started.

Beginning at the end:

I was 8 years old when I died. The last words I murmured were. “The night has a thousand eyes, and the day but one; yet the light of the bright world dies with the dying sun. The mind has a thousand eyes, and the heart but one; yet the light of a whole life dies when love is done.” As these words came out of my mouth before I died, it was a mystery yet to be answered just as the mystery of how I died. Will they ever be answered who knows?

Sounds:

“Boom, crash, bang” I awoke as soon as the terror came out of the darkness. Something was coming towards me. The noises and shadows were coming right out of my book!

Sound

Bang Bang I knocked on her door, it was midnight. Nothing happened, it was silent just the sound of the wind blowing through the window. i knocked again Bang Bang Bang, but still nothing. I slowly opened the door, I suddenly ran to her bed, she wasn’t moving. Her beautiful face was now white as snow. I saw a book laying open on her bed, I picked it up, I fell down, the book was as powerful as that strange man said.

Beginning at the end

I was still, lying in a hospital bed, someone must of found us lying in Elizabeths dorm. But where was Elizabeth? “Elizabeth!” I yelled, but instead of Elizabeth, the librarian came. All he said was “I told her to leave the book alone!”

OWWWWWWW, what is this, this green thorny vine, digging in to my skin, like nailing 100 nails into your hand paying as much attention to the draconian pain, getting worse and worse every second, stabbing and swallowing you up, like a runaway convict on a killing spree, he kills you fast but slowly at the same time, like he wants to make you suffer but get it over with, think of that but triple the pain and a third the speed.

I tried to grab onto something but it was pulling me down! I was thinking it was coming from the book but i figured that it was impossible, I looked down and thought to myself "It is possible". Who knew that a book could be so dangerous? I guess its sort of my fault for not listening to Mr linden!
Before I knew it I fell into a pile of sparkles.

I was sleeping when a plant grabbed my arm. I didn’t know how but it was coming out from in the middle of the book. I tried to grab onto the corner of my bed, but I couldn’t, I was just to far away! Just then I remembered what Mr. linden had said to me about this book, he said “never fall asleep when the book is open” but he didn’t tell me why.

Oscar and Alphonse/Immediate suspense
Lilly was running away. It’s very simple, it wasn’t because she was unhappy, she was just sick of it, she was sick of being confined to her room, she was sick of the dull colours, and the dull food. It didn’t matter anyway, she wasn’t wanted and she knew it, it’s better for everyone if she wasn’t at the foster home anymore. So she ran, and ran and ran, she didn’t stop until her foot got stuck in The Hole. It wasn’t a particularly big hole and it wasn’t a particularly different hole but she knew it was special. While she started making it bigger she saw two caterpillars, they were different, just like the hole. They weren’t moving, just standing there, even when she picked them up, they just stood on her hand. As she was about to put them down they started to wiggle, then crawl and finally form a word, “HI”. They weren’t any ordinary caterpillars, she knew that.

Archie Smith, boy wonder/Dialogue
“Is he the one?” whispered Dinky.
“I can’t be sure” replied Fingo. “He doesn’t look very mighty, but he isn’t full grown, yet.”
“Well, I think he’s just perfect, look at him, so peaceful”
“Enough with the mushy stuff, let’s get back to business!” snapped Fingo.
“Oh, all right” Dinky said with a sigh.
Fingo grunted loudly while he climbed onto Archie’s bed, I suppose that’s what woke him up, and I suppose the reason he screamed was because, well, he woke up to a wrinkly mini man, or a pixie, but that’s the same thing isn’t it?
“Who are you, or, what are you!?” asked Archie.
“Sssshhhh” said Dinky “you have to come with us, we need you to save pixie world!”
“We’re depending on you!” said Fingo sternly.
“KNOCK KNOCK”
“Archie? What’s wrong?” asked Archie’s mom at the door.

“Life is magical you are magical but this book is extra magical it has powers” those were the words that ran through my head. I could not stop them. As I woke up I hoped it was all a dream but it was not they would not stop. Then I heard a voice Mr Lindens voice, And as I got out of bed I disappeared.



“What is that?” I started to lose the feeling in my leg. Then my other leg and then my right arm. It was not cold outside in fact it was 30 degrees. Maybe it was the book. Mr linden had warned me about it. Maybe i should have worried and listened. Then I heard a voice, Mr lindens voice. As I tried harder then I ever have to get out of bed I disappeared.

Oscar and Alphonse

1. Character Introduction.
Emma had never been out of her gloomy old house and never got company. Her biggest dream was to explore the wild and deep forest outside her yard; sadly she was too terrified to do so. But all of that changed when she met Oscar and Alphonse.

2. Suspense
I still remember the day I met them. It was a day like no other, but it changed my life forever.

3. Dialogue
"Emma, it is time for us to leave," Oscar said sorrowfully, he was looking at her straight in the eyes; she just had to understand.
"But I need you," She objected. Her voice was firm but a bit insecure.
"We’re sorry." Said Alphonse, climbing up Emma's finger and sitting on top of it.
