My story

                                                                                          

I like to write and when I grow up I want to be an author as well as an actor! This is a little piece I've been working on so it isn't entirely finished yet! 
                                               What do you want to be when you grow up?                                                                                                                                       Hope you like it!                                                                                                                                                                       Samantha.                                                                                                                

                                                                                                                              

Emma fled through the castle gates crying, nothing would go her way she thought. She ran past fallen down pine trees and pushed her way through several dead rose bushes and collapsed on the floor of a horrible clearing. It was surrounded by a row of dead rose bushes the grass was dry and there were patches of ground with no grass just dry dirt the, night air made it feel as though she had just stepped into a freezer! There were no trees they had all fallen down crushing the rose bushes underneath them, the only inhabitants the clearing had was a murder of crows. Slowly the clearing around her changed into a forest thick with trees in the clearing it had been the night but in this forest there was a river of sunlight streaming through the trees as elegantly as a swan on swan lake. Emma stood up and started to walking dusting the grass off her robes and then wiping her eyes on the back of them. She stepped over a run down fence,a wild thorn caught at her ankle and she jumped up in surprise and landed on what she thought was the edge of a cliff, instinctively she pushed herself forward getting a face full of mud “Emma” she muttered to herself “you were being stupid it was just a silly thorn!” She stood up and looked around. She was on a bridge and she could see a stream on one side of the bridge but not on the other . She decided to go and investigate this matter. Carefully she climbed down the slope and onto the muddy river bank.There she noticed that there was a drain pipe running underneath the land and the water came out there.Suddenly a crunching sound came from under her foot she bent down to look but there was only mud under her feet she straightened up and suddenly a whirlwind of magic whipped her off her feet her grey robes became gold,her grey socks be came aqua and a violet staff flew into her hands it sent a surge of energy through her as though someone had plugged her into a power point and left her there for a day.As she landed gracefully on the ground she noticed the drain pipe had changed into what looked like a slimy puzzle it was a big multi coloured mess! She walked forward and touched it, the piece under her hand shifted, she jumped and quickly drew her hand away as the pieces began to form something. When they'd finished she noticed that the mess had changed to an eye with water pouring out of the centre of it. Emma stepped closer to the eye, the hollow centre looked like a tunnel, she went to put her foot inside but her sock suddenly went white hot Emma yelped pulling her foot out. She was still curious to see if she could fit her whole body in so she striped her aqua socks off her pale legs and stepped forward.
