A Good Trip Gone Wrong

 “Bye Brooke!” Carys and I waved to Brooke as the ship slowly sailed out to sea. “This is going to be exciting!” Carys said to me, as a wave of delight rushed through us. The sun was warm, and we thought that nothing can ruin this wonderful trip to Australia. We went to the cafeteria. As we drank some chocolate, we talked about how lucky we were to win the trip. We won a contest, and got the prize. As the sun slowly descended from the clear blue sky, we excitedly took our key and rushed to our cabin. Carys climbed to the top bunk immediately, as she poked her tongue at my angry and upset face. “You always get to be up there?” I said, angrily. But Carys said nothing, as she rolled around in laughter. We ate a marvelous dinner at the buffet, and climbed into bed. I closed my eyes, and dreamed of an earthquake. My eyes opened. The ship was shaking! ‘Thump’ “Are you okay Carys?” Carys had fallen off the top bunk! “Never mind, Quick! I think the ship is sinking!” We opened the door. Water a foot tall rushed towards us. We trudged through it, and came to a deck. Another ship had crashed with us! “Come! Jump in here!” One of the crew said. People rushed into the lifeboats. Luckily, there were many lifeboats. My face was as pale as death, as I felt Carys heavy breathing. The boat descended into the sea. Suddenly, the boat broke apart. I was in the middle, and I fell into the water. “No! Wendy! NO!” I could hear Carys horrified screams.

It was like a ghost, a cold and freezing ghost, pulling me towards the bottom of the sea. The water pierced my skin like someone cutting me open. Carys reached out a hand/ I grabbed it. And at that point, Everything went black. When I awoke, I found myself on a half of the boat. Only Carys and I were on it. “What?...” I said weakly. “Wendy!” Carys was so happy, she nearly toppled into the water. The sun came out, as it baked us like meat. “The other boat fell apart, and all the other people were on the other side of the boat.” Carys said. “Look!” I shouted, as a small island came into sight. We used our hands to paddle towards it. A wave nearly flipped us over. But we kept on, and soon, we were standing on it. “I’m hungry.” Said Carys, as her stomach growled like a hungry bear. A rabbit rushed pass. “Quick!” Carys grabbed a stone, and threw it at the bunny. It striked it in the head. It fell, and was dead. I made a fire, and roasted it. The next day, as we were building a boat, Carys said, “Look!” A tiger was behind the trees! Carys said in a proud and arrogant voice, “Look, Wendy, I can kill that in like, um, no time!” She grabbed a rock and threw it. It hit the head, but it didn’t hurt the tiger, but annoyed it. It ran towards Carys, “Ahh!” Carys toppled over, and the tiger bit her badly. I grabbed a stick, and threw it hard at the tiger. It fell. It was not dead, but too hurt to stand up. I dragged carys away, into the forest, far away from the tiger. I quickly grabbed my medical book from my bag, and out toppled some cookies. I gave one to Carys, as I looked in the book. Antibiotics, illness cures, plants, herbs...Cure for tiger bites! It was a herb. I quickly looked everywhere, and found it. I did as the book said, I squeezed it onto Carys wound. The blood stopped, and it quickly healed. “Well, I guess you are okay now.” I said to Carys. “That taught me never to be too rough and arrogant now.” Admitted Carys, blushing as deep as an apple. For the next few days, we lived on fruits and vegetables we found on the island. We built a boat. It was very strong, there were 2 layers, the bottom was where we could hide from rain and sleep, and the top was to steer the boat. We sailed out on a sunny day. We took turns to steering the boat and resting. We gathered plenty of food and water to last for months.

The first night was peaceful, but the second night there was a monster wave! We saw the wave rise up, and we quickly climbed into our under-boat Cabin. “Whoosh” We could hear it as it crashed down on the boat, and the boat shaked horribly. After a while, everything was calm, but we stayed underneath. Finally, we took a peek outside. “Yes!” There was a rainbow, and we saw our home! We were at the shore, so we hopped off the boat and quickly ran to the street. We used the money that was left to get a bus ticket, and first Carys was dropped off to her home, and then mine. As I got home,  my mum asked why I arrived late. I said, “Because Carys and I went to an ice cream store. No one knew our secret, not a single soul in the world.

Carys Betrayel

 “So? There is no way to betray me, Carys Watkins!” I screamed at Carys. Angry tears swelled up in my eyes. “I don’t know, and I don’t care, it’s for your own good.” Carys said, her face as plain as ever. “I thought you were my friend! I shall never trust you.” I shouted. My angry shouts awoke the silent night. Birds fluttered out of the trees, and the wind howled, feeling sad for me. My hair blew in the wind, as my face turned patches of red and white. I turned my back and walked away. I couldn’t help the angry streames of tears that rolled down my cheeks. 2 times! The first time I forgave her when she copied my whole sheet of exam questions, but this time, forgiving was not a solution. I had found a secret portal at camp, that leaded to another world. I told carys, I knew she would be loyal and not tell anyone. But she did. She reported it to the camp workers, helpers, and teachers. The teachers scolded me, and they gave Carys a certificate for reporting it to them. We had been friends for years, and I never thought she would do this to me. I went inside the tent and cried myself to sleep. From that day on, I never talked to Carys again. Until one day… I was 23, and I was looking for a job. “Yes, you are accepted to an job.” Said the boss. I jumped up from my seat. “Thank you, Mr Wright.” I walked out the door happily. My smile faded as I saw someone familiar. Hazel eyes, dark brown hair, faint eyebrows…”Carys?!” My jaw dropped to the ground. “Who..Oh. Hello Wendy.” Carys said shocked and hesitantly. I noticed something different about her. She had a long cut across her face. “Whats that?” I said coldly, remembering the night of her betrayel. “Oh, and why would you need to know?” Said Carys, back to her cold and sarcastic voice. But I could hear a bit of fear in her voice. “Fine then.” I said, as I walked out the building. I had a strange idea. Had the cut had something to do with the portal?

The End.

The Dangerous Adventure

 The moment Carys entered my house, we ran to my bed room. In my room, Carys said something I had thought about a long time. “Should we try it again?” I remembered, a few months ago, we tried to go to Carys’s house, which was half an hour away if we went the sensible and safe way, through the streets. But we had decided to climb over my fence, and over an abandoned overgrown field. Last time, we were chased back by a big black dog, and since then I was determined to try it again. So we did.

I packed water, food, and equipment to use. In my bag was chips, and a long rope. We climbed onto the top of the dirty wall, and we jumped. We trudged through the overgrown grass, and I suddenly screamed, “Carys! Watch out!” Carys had nearly stood on a bee hive! Carys breathed a sigh of relief, as we continued forward. But one problem was ahead of us. A big dirt dump, as tall as a house, as wide as 3 trucks blocked our way. We looked at each other, and nodded. Together, we used our hands and feet, climbed to the top of the mountain, and looked at my hand, discovering it sticky with dirt and mud. Then, Carys did something unexpected. She ran, sat, and slid down the other end of the mountain! I followed her, and soon, we were laughing hysterically. We jumped across a poisonous blackberry bush that was buzzing with bees. Finally, we reached another wall. There were electric wires around it. It was a steep and tall wall. Together, we climbed. It seemed like ages, under the hot sun. Finally, we jumped, and landed on fresh grass. We had never been here before. Last time, before we even reached here, the dog chased us back. Now, we were here. I felt like I had climbed Mount Everest. It was such a big accomplishment! We laughed and joked as we ran across the field. We peeped over the fences and... We saw Cary’s mum gardening! She was very surprised when she found us on the other side of the wall. “Carys! How did you get here?” We told her about our brilliant adventure. Then we headed back to my house. I thought that our adventure was over, but I was wrong.

Just as we were about to reach my garden wall, I saw my mum! She climbed over the wall and was on the grass. “What are you doing mum?” I asked curiosity. “Watch out!” There, a few metres away, was the same dog as last time! It was barking loudly, and slowly going forward towards us. My Mum helped push  Carys and me up the wall, and she climbed over too. The dog was left barking furiously on the other side of the fence. It was one of the most exciting days of my life!
