1. Trapped in black
By Rebecca
“Lara will you bring the clean washing into the cottage please?” Lara’s mother shouted.
“Ok mum” Lara answered.
After bringing the washing in, Lara peered through the kitchen window and watched the
delicate trees, that had big bushy leaves, sway from side to side in the gentle summer’s
breeze. But then she spotted a black moon…
The sun was glazing through the window. Suddenly, in the blink of an eye, it became pitch
black.
“What’s going on?” Lara whispered.
“I don’t know” exclaimed Lara’s mum.
Lara stumbled to the draw and grabbed a torch.
“What are you doing?” Lara’s mum asked.
“I am gonna find out what’s going on” Lara declared.
She flicked the torched on and slowly tip toed outside.
As Lara carefully tip toed through the forest, she remembered the black moon. “What did
that mean?” she thought.
There was silence. Then a voice. Lara turned back but nothing was there. As quite as a
mouse Lara moved on. A few minutes later, Lara felt that something or someone was
following her. She felt as though the trees were ganging up on her…
Suddenly, Lara saw a distant figure following her. She ran like the wind jumping over all the
obstacles but the figure was faster! It kept getting closer and closer and closer. Till suddenly
it was nearly on Lara’s back. Lara lost her focus and tripped over a log. She landed in a deep
hole that was covered up by leaves. In the 10 foot hole was a sign that had a black moon
and it red …
TRAPPED!
Finally she knew what it meant but was left there to die there and never seen again.
