1. Sally
Chapter One ~ Chocolate
Sally stepped onto the busy street and walked to the corner. She crossed the road and
carried on walking, a lonely figure, cold and lost, looking for a bed for the harsh winter
night. She made her way along a thin alleyway and walked towards a cardboard box, just
outside an old abandoned doorway, she called this box “home”. She lay in the large box,
once used to hold a freezer. Sally was very tall for an fifteen old with ginger-brown hair,
which was in a scraggly mess, but her face showed elegance, and beauty, and she did
look very pretty. She shivered and her warm breath rose to meet the cold, icy air, she fell
into a deep sleep, dreaming of warm fires and a Mum & Dad.
The next morning Sally woke up, as usual she headed to the nearest restaurant, not to buy
anything, but to look for free scraps of food in the rubbish bin around the back.
She munched on a stale piece of bread and nibbled at a dry, shrivelled carrot, she sighed
and her breath hung in the air. Sally walked along the dirty, foot-trodden path and suddenly
she stopped, she couldn't believe her eyes, there on the path lay a beautiful $5 note, she
bent down and picked it up, she held it, wondering, should she keep it or let the person
who dropped it come back for it? She soon found the answer when a fat old lady came
bustling up to her and asked where she had found the note, Sally told her and the
women's eyes twinkled, “You may have it, child” she said, and bustled away. Sally smiled,
a thing that she rarely did, she walked to the dairy on the corner, and proudly marched in,
grasping the note in her cold hands.
Sally looked up at all the lollies arranged neatly along the
counter, but soon she remembered what she had come into the
dairy for, she tore her eyes away and walked to the heater, she
was warming her cold hands, when a loud voice interrupted the
silence, “Hello, can I help you?”, she turned around and saw a
middle-aged man standing behind the tall counter, “I..I need
bread and milk please, sir” she stammered, “Over here” said the
man, leading her to a fridge and opening it up, he took a small
bottle of milk out and then closed the door, he then took a loaf of
bread of a shelf and handed it to her, Sally walked to the counter
and put the bread and milk on it, she payed, it was exactly $4.50, she turned to walk out,
when the man called her back and gave her a chocolate bar, “For free”, he said, Sally
thanked him and skipped back to her “home”. Sally jumped into her box and opened up
the bottle of milk, she took a few sips, then put the lid back on, she then opened the bread
and had a slice of it, she looked at the bar of chocolate, tempting, she thought, finally, she
couldn't resist the temptation and reached for the chocolate bar, she carefully peeled the
corner away to reveal a small corner of her delicate chocolate bar, she took the smallest
nibble, and then fell into a deep, happy sleep, dreaming, this time, of chocolate!
The next day she awoke early and reached for her bar of chocolate, unfortunately the bar
of chocolate had been wedged between one corner of the box and Sally's jacket, so when
she reached for it, the wrapper came of and the bar of chocolate fell out, onto the hard,
dirty floor, she hardly noticed this though, she was looking at a silver piece of paper that
had fallen out of the packet, she picked it up, and stared at it, it read something, but Sally
couldn’t read it, so she went to the dairy and asked the man if he could read it for her, as
soon as he saw it, his eyes lit up and he smiled at her, then he read “Congratulations, you

2. are in for a real treat, you are the lucky winner of a dream holiday, of your choice to with
$500 spending money, and you can invite 3 friends to come along too. To redeem prize
ring, 63 987 1467, or text, 022 0567 893”, Sally grinned and the man told her that she was
very lucky and he rang the number, when he hung up, he told her to be ready at 10:00a.m.
the next morning, with all her belongings at the dairy, she said that she would see hi m
then and pranced merrily to her ''home''.
The next day at 10:00a.m. Sally was ready, outside the dairy, she had no bags with her,
not even a small handbag, she had only a small teddy in her hands that was the only
belonging that was of use to her. The kind man from the dairy, whose name was Sam had
temporarily closed his shop so he could help her get going on her holiday. Sharp on 10:00
a Lamborghini pulled up and a chauffeur stepped out, he looked very smart, in a black
business-like suit, with a tie and polished black shoes, Sally was a little bit scared, at first,
but soon she warmed to the man, whose name was Mark, he asked her where her silver
ticket was, and she gave it to him, he then instructed her to hop in the car, and asked her
where her bags where, Sally turned red and explained to him how poor she was, Mark
nodded and asked where her parents where she told him that she had none, “I'm sorry,
but you need to have a parent or guardian with you to be able to go on this trip”, he said, at
this point Sam interjected, “I can go with Sally”, he said, “Oh yes, please will you” Sally
said, “Very well, said Mark, hop in then”. After Sam had rushed into his house and
slammed some stuff into his suitcase, (as well as slamming his finger in the cupboard
door), they all drive of in Mark's Lamborghini, Sally's Adventure had only just begun.
Chapter Two ~ The Adventure Begins!d
As Sally watched eagerly out the car's shaded windows, she began to dream of the
luxuries to come, she wondered where she should go, what she should buy, and who she
would meet, she smiled, thinking of how kind Sam had been, to sacrifice his job, to her
happiness. As Mark drove the car around a bend, Sally saw a large mansion up ahead,
Mark stopped outside the mansion, and helped her out of the car, she skipped up a flight
of steps to a tall doorway, she stepped up onto a pristine step, and was greeted by a sober
butler, dressed in a rich navy colour, he opened up the huge oak doors for her, and Sally
stepped inside the grand mansion, she looked up and saw a tall, slender lady, “Hello dear”
said the lady, in a tinkly, soft voice, “Hello, Ma'm” replied Sally, she felt herself turning pink,
then red then scarlet with embarrassment of how dirty, small, and worthless a girl she was,
in the presence of Lady Janice herself, “Follow me please” she explained, “I'll lead you to
the room that you will be sleeping in tonight, and tomorrow we can begin the plans!”. After
a sumptuous meal of Pies, omelets, chicken, beef, pork, roast poultry, vegetables, jelly,
icecream, pavlova, and fruit to finish, she lay down in her 4-poster bed, and slept, a
beautiful, long sleep, and she dreamed of plans for her holiday.
The next morning, she woke up bright and early, to hear bluebirds singing by her window,
and a maid coming in with her breakfast.
Sally sat up immediately, and the maid gave her her breakfast, which consisted of eggs,
sausages, and TONS of bacon. After breakfast, Sally found a sweet, pale blue, frilled,
floral, knee-length dress, then Sally found her way downstairs, and was greeted by Lady
Janice, who was wearing a beautiful, lustrous, pearl-beaded fabric dress, it was so pretty,
that she couldn't tear her eyes away for even a moment, “Do you like it?” asked Lady
Janice, “I LOVE IT!” exclaimed Sally, in awe, “Now, let's get started” said Lady Janice.
Sally was lead by Lady Janice into a room which was splendidly sparkly, and very big, the
wall paper was coloured rich magenta, which felt soft to the touch. Sally was then lead to a
large table in the corner, which was empty except for a small bag in the centre, Lady
Janice said “You will be staying with Lady Miranda”, and then she picked up the bag, and

3. opened it, out of the bag she pulled another bag, slightly smaller, and a few importantlooking pieces of paper, “This bag here contains all that you will be needing to have the
best holiday ever!” said Lady Janice, “And these papers need to be signed by Sam, your
caregiver, to show that he agrees to take full
responsibility of you”, “Okay” said Sally, “Do you
know where Sam is?, “He should be downstairs
soon, I've just told the maid to get him”, said Lady
Janice, as she handed Sally the bag.
Moments later Sam was standing in the doorway,
a wide grin on his face, “Hello Ladies” he said,
“Hello Sam” replied Sally, “I'll need you to sign this
piece of paper, to agree that you will take full
responsibility of her”, said Lady Janice, “Alright,
where do I sign?”, said Sam, “Here” said Lady Janice, pointing at a small line in the the
bottom of the page. After Sam had signed, she instructed them to go and hop into the car,
which waited for them outside.
Mark was at the car, when they arrived, “Hop in please” he said, as he opened up the door
for Sally, “Where do you wish to go” said Mark, “Any suggestions?” asked Sally “Well, you
could go to Hawaii, France, China, I know, what about Hollywood, you could meet the sta-”
before Mark could even finish his sentence, Sally said “Oh yes, I would love to go to
Hollywood, to meet the stars there, I've always seen them on the front of magazines, when
I walk past Sam's dairy!”, “Okay, let's go to Hollywood then” said Mark.
One hour later, Sally was at the airport, boarding the plane, she had never been on a
plane before, so she was a little scared, but Sam held her hand the whole way, and she
felt much better. When Sally had got of the plane, a old, kindly looking gentleman greeted
her, “Hello, you must be Sally” he said, “Yes, I'm Sally”, she said, she wasn't frightened,
because she had met so many fancy people in the last few days, that she was getting
accustomed to them.
The man told her that his name was George, and he instructed her to follow him, with
Sam beside Sally, she felt safe, and happy, as George led her to a waiting car just outside
the airport, Sally hopped in and George murmured something to a man on the drivers seat,
and the car roared into life, Sally sat back to relax, she opened up her bag, that Lady
Janice had given her and took out the first thing she saw, it was a purse full of money, she
guessed it was $500 worth, but she could only guess because she had never learnt to
count before, next she pulled out a peculiar looking gadget, she turned it around in her
hand, and gave a small squeak, when it started vibrating, but before she could explore it
anymore, the door of the car opened, and George stood there, beckoning for her to hop
out, Sally stuffed the stuff into her bag, and jumped out of the car, ahead loomed a large
villa, her home for the next while.
Chapter 3 ~ Lady Miranda & Henry
As Sally neared closer to the large villa, she noticed that guards were patrolling the
grounds, and that the house was made out of a beautiful marble material, and the amazing
swirling patterns on it, seemed to shape into creatures, before her eyes, she also noticed
that everyone was looking at her! She gasped, and almost tripped over a expensive
marble pot, but straitened and hurriedly brushed the dust of the fur coat that Lady Janice
had given her. Sally noticed that one of the guards, in particular, seemed to be goggling at
her, but soon Sally forgot about him, and found her attention was on a grandly dressed
lady, who she guessed was Lady Miranda, Lady Miranda's hair was done up in a tight bun,

4. high on her head, her dress was of utter elegance, with pearls strung from the beautiful
lace frills, coming out of her deep-aqua ankle-length dress, the collar was covered in
sparkling sequins, and the shoes took Sally's breath away, they were the same colour as
the dress (deep-aqua), with miniature coral shells, sequins, and little lovely bobbles dotted
over it, Sally managed to tear away her eyes for a moment to reply to the lady's question
“How was the trip, Sally”, she said “I..It was.. Um...” Sally managed to pull herself together
and reply, “It was good thanks”, “Excellent” replied Lady Miranda, “I shall talk to you
tonight, but meanwhile we shall get you some food, and a nice, bubbly bath, shall we?”, to
Sally's relief Lady Miranda didn't give her a chance to reply, and kept on talking, “I will
order the maid, but while she prepares the bath, I think you should explore the land, there
is plenty to do here, and I'll get one of these guards to give you a tour around the place!”,
she stopped briefly to look around at the eager faces of the guards, but soon she decided
on one of them, and went back inside.
