100 word challenge -#20

One day I was riding my yellow bike down the road and a truck almost hit me. It didn’t hit me because I turned off the road and it lead me to an old coal mine. I saw that there were security cameras and there was a trail but my bike wouldn’t fit, so I attached it to a power pole. The mine was light until about 2 km in and I went in until it had a fence so I jumped it. There was no trail so I just walked to the side and stayed there. I was stuck there.

That was summer

Remember that time 

You got picked to play for North Otago

In the Central South Island cricket tournament?

You had a three day tournament  

At Timura, Waihi and Weston.

That was summer.

 

Remember that time 

Your team chose to bat

And you had to bat at 4th

But you hate batting?

Remember once you got out there you felt good 

Because you hit a four 

But you were angry when you got out 

Because you tried to get some more runs by hitting another four 

So your team could get the runs going? 

That was summer

 

Remember that time 

Your team went out to bowl

And you were bowling and the batter nicked it 

But the wicket keeper dropped it? 

And then a couple of balls later the 

Ball just bounced over the wickets

And when you were fielding out on the boundary 

And you didn’t want to mess up 

Because the ball would go over the boundary?

 

That was summer

I didn’t mean to kill her

I was in a forest. It was cold and dark and I needed wood because it was almost winter. It was going to be the coldest winter ever. So I went to the local forest in the morning because I thought no one would be there. But I was wrong. I didn’t mean to kill her.

I was down at the forest getting wood when I saw someone standing there. Watching. I continued to cut wood. She got closer and closer until she was about ten meters away. I asked her if she was OK.
She said she was fine. Then it hit me. It was the friendly lady from the supermarket but then she got fired. I had been hired in her place and she had never talked to me until today. She has tried to get me fired but it has never worked. It started to rain and the axe got slippery. Next thing there was a big yell. The axe had slipped out of my hands and hit her.

I was so scared I ran home. I had no idea what to do so I slept on it. I did some research about the friendly lady. I discovered on google that all information about her had disappeared. I decided that I was not going to leave the house. In the mail, there was a flyer that advertised a wood cutting day in the forest for all the villagers. I decided to make a plan to try to stop them getting into the forest. I couldn’t have anyone finding the body. It would be bad news for me.

The next day was when the people were going to get wood. I cut a tree down on the road to stop them but they cut it up. I cut four trees down to stop them. I also put old broken cars at the entry to the forest. They called the fire station to move the cars out of the way. When the fire trucks were getting there I moved the body to a big bush. I started to make a fire so they can’t see me move the body through the smoke.
Once the villagers had moved the cars, they started to cut the trees. The fire is not working so I go home and get some wood. I came back to the forest. I put the wood on the fire and it roared to life. I put it out so I could wait until the fire trucks had left. I waited for an hour making sure no one came over to the bush. One person came to see if I was ok and I was. The fire trucks had left so I started the fire again. The smoke went everywhere. I grabbed the body and ran to my truck and drove off to my holiday house.

I put the body under my deck until I can figure out what to do. The fire from the forest had grown so fast and big. I had to go and help the fire brigade. I decided that I will keep the body until the fire has finished and say that I found her in the burned forest.
The fire was still going and it was getting close to my house which has the dead body in it. The fire brigade tried to stop the fire, but it couldn’t. The fire roared. The fire began burning the deck at my house and they told me to put it out. I didn’t try to stop so it would burn the body which was under it. The deck was the only part of the house that got burnt and no one has found the body.

Coaststeering

At camp we did coaststeering. You have to wear a wetsuit and you have warm clothes on under. You also had to wear. You could see waves crashing up against the rocks. Some rocks were made by a volcano that had touched the water to form rocks. When you got down to the beach from the road you can see a lot of shark eggs skated all over the beach. You can see rocks all around you that you will begin to climb around. When you get to papa bear you can see people jumping off it again and again. You can smell sea salt all around you. You can smell the sea weed when you climb out of the washing machine onto the rocks. You can taste the sea salt when you jump off the rocks into the water but it does not taste that good. You can hear the waves crashing on to the rocks and the splash of the water when people jump off the rocks into the sea. You hear the bubbles rising once people have jumped. You can hear people screaming as they jump off the rocks but other people are laughing as they jump. You touch the slimy and hard rocks as you climb up to the jumps. You touch the seaweed as you get on to the rocks. We are doing coaststeering because it is one of the activities we choose to do. Coaststeering is next to the sea so you can jump off rocks into the water. I am doing this with the people in my group. We walk around rocks and jump off then into the water. You can get to a warm pool made by the sea rising into a small pool and the sun warms it up. We did it in the afternoon on Thursday. It was warm but once we started it began to get cold. We had to carpool to get there. The instructors lead us around the rocks If it was not for the instructors we wouldn’t have done it with out them.
