Bracelet (Chapter 6)



Chapter Six
Confused

You know those days that you don’t want to get out of bed in the morning and that's exactly how I was feeling this morning. Mum came into my room...
“Get out of bed its Tuesday, school day.” She opened up the curtains, I closed my eyes so the sun wouldn't blind me.

I threw my books into my bag with my computer and jumped into the car. I didn't talk to Dad at all or Mum. I just didn't feel up to it after yesterday's talk. While we were driving to school Mum brought up what I knew she would bring up. “Hey! I heard that Dad talked to you about the bracelet! I think that you shouldn't worry about it much yet.” I didn't want to talk about it!

“You know that Dad said not to talk about this,” I replied. Mum didn't say anything after that. I jumped out of the car and said “Good bye Mum.” She waved then zoomed off down the road. I came to the gate just before school at least this time it wasn't my first time seeing it. I walked across the field to the courts.

Suddenly out of nowhere Emily popped up against my shoulder! “Hey Emily!” I smiled at her.
“I was just wondering what class room are you in for Literacy?” she asked.
“Oh! Mrs. Allen’s class, shes really nice.”
“Yeah, I know she’s my teacher too.” I walked into my class and waved to Emily.

At last the bell rang! “Hello class, today for maths I have a project for you to work on at home and also at school we are now for the next few weeks making our very own answer machine”

Everyone looked at her weirdly and put their hands up. I didn't know what a answer machine was either, but I was too scared to ask. “Annabell do you have a question?” Mrs.Allen asked. “What is an answer machine?”
“Oh! its a machine that's answers your questions.” That answered lots of my questions, not!

I walked out of maths a bit confused but I knew she would explain it over and over again tomorrow until our ears had had enough. I kind of doodle towards my next class until the bell rang then I really had to run before I got in big trouble.

Rushing in through the door wasn't the greatest idea but at least I didn't get dentition. I scurried over to Emily and sat down next to her and tried to pay attention to what my teacher was saying but it didn't really work. Emily was drawing a picture while looking up at Mrs. Allen. It was quite distracting for me.

I had a sneak peak! All I could see was a black woman with long wings on her back, it looked like Cat Woman but in a different version.

Bowling (cricket)


Learning To Bowl from Kieren Moriarty on Vimeo.

We have just started cricket lesson at school. Last week we learned how to catch also throw but this week we were doing bowling. It really fun to get out in the sun!


Reflection On Cricket  


· Something I was pleased with was how well I could do my bowl at the end of the lesson because I have never been able to bowl.

· I really enjoyed learning all the games we played because they were all really fun and got you moving.

· Something I found hard was to keep my arm straight.

Something I want to get better at is always keeping my arm straight and not doing a throw.
(I can practice by keeping my arms straight)

The Bracelet (Chapter 4 and 5)



Chapter Four
First Day Of School

First day of school today and I am not that excited more like feeling a bit shy and nervous. I always make friends but sometimes it's really hard to fit in with other people from somewhere totally different. I am now in intermediate and it is my first year.

        
I walked out the door shouting at Mum that we needed to go, she still does not realise that if you get there after the bell you will be in detention. But I got out the door around 8.30 when school starts at 8.40am, so that was a relief.

I made my way through the corridor to my maths class. People stared at me and started whispering, it was kind of scary. This school seemed huge it had doors after doors after doors, I don’t know how people got around this place. I finally got to where I wanted to be, as I glanced at the teacher she just had to come and walk right over to me. “Hello! You must be Sophie I assume?” I nodded and smiled (not like I meant it or anything) “Well, welcome to your maths class. My name is Mrs.Allen and I am your teacher for maths and literacy” She paused and smiled at me. I just kind of glared. “Is something wrong?” Mrs. Allen asked “No! of course not” I mumbled, then I took my place at the front of the class.


The day flew by like the wind. When it came to lunch time, I felt pretty comfortable and took my lunch and sat at a table. As I was about to take a bit out of my sandwich a girl walked over and sat down right next to me. It was awkward for a few seconds “Hi! my name is Emily, are you new here?” I gulped.
“Yes! Why anyway?”
“Just wondering, Whats your name?”
“Sophie”
“Nice name”
From then on we sat their for the whole of lunch time talking to each other, so I suppose its not that hard to make friends with someone.    


Chapter Five
Past to the Future


When I got home that day Dad was in the kitchen washing the dishes. “Hello Kiddo how was school?” I replied “Fine”
I walked off into my room and layed on my bed. I stared at the writing on the wall and flicked my mind back to that very night. I just needed to know what that woman was up to, so I walked out to the kitchen.

“Hey! Dad”
“Yes Sophie?’
“Um, Can you please answer me this time? What was that woman doing in our house? You know who I am talking about”
Dad stopped doing the dishes and actually turned around this time. He pushed me into the spare room and shut the door. Oh! No!


“I knew I should've told you this ages ago, but I thought you couldn’t take it all in so nows the time I tell you. A long, long, long time ago in the world there used to be a famous warrior. One day he came came across an ancient God from the beneath, now this God carried a golden bracelet on his arm with three charms, one with a time capsule another with a watch and the sun. He was going to give up his life and had to still keep safe this bracelet of his, safe from the devil. Once he meet the warrior he knew he was the guy so he passed over the bracelet and took off.”

“You expect me to believe this?” I gasped. But he still carried on!

“That warrior was your great, great, great grandfather, my grandfather passed it on to me so I could keep it safe but bad things have happened in the world lately and that woman their was trying to find the bracelet she has already got the three charms but needs the bracelet.”
“So where is it?”

“In the S.A.S secret undercover vault.” My mind was spinning with ideas, all this time I had been thinking about this stupid woman but never knew. “Don’t tell anyone Sophie otherwise the world is at an end.” I turned around “How?” Dad had already gone back into the kitchen before I could ask. But all I could think of was the past.

The Bracelet (Chapter 2 and 3)

Chapter Two

Haunted House

Everything was supposed to be exciting when it came to moving house but that was what my Mum said. When I walked into the new house, I just knew it was going to be exactly like last year (it wasn't that good last year). The house was old and creaky, it smelt like smoke that had been drifting around for years. The floors were covered in dust they didn't even have carpet or had been vanished. I walked into the kitchen it almost made me want to cry. The walls were green with mould, the colour was horrendous bright pink and light blue. I made 
it to my room without falling to pieces luckily but still my room was the worst. The wallpaper was halfway down the wall, my window had a huge crack through the middle, the ceiling looked like it was going to collapse, but the thing that made me scared was the writing on the wall saying “You're next”. I ran for it.




Chapter Three

10 o'clock Robber Time

I dragged Mum into my room. “Mum look, look, look at that writing!” She stared at me and then stared at the wall “Sophie are you serious? That was probably some stupid idiot who wrote that you're twelve and you let that get to you.” She walked out of the room pretty amused with herself  but I knew that wasn't any kind of writing, it was that robber. “Oops,” I shouldn't of said that, now I have to tell the story. All right, but very quick.

One night I was sitting in bed reading my book and everybody else was asleep. It was about ten o'clock when suddenly I heard footsteps coming up the hallway. Now I didn't want to shout or scream so I just sat there watching my door. I sat there for a few minutes until I realised that I needed to check what was out there. So I crept to the door and pushed it open a little bit, all I could see was someone covered in a black suit and they were picking up things of mine. That's when I couldn't control my anger. I swung the door open and ran for that person with my book (hard cover) I approached her with my book and smacked her over the head! Which wasn't any good
.

My Dad came running in and stopped. She was holding a gun on my full head but luckily Dad already had other plans. In with a “bash” came more than twelve soldiers filled with armour and gear you wouldn't know what they were. The lady jumped and smashed the window with a leap, she flew out into the bright night. Just remember that was the short version. After that I kept on questioning Dad “Who was that lady? Did she have a jet pack?” But I never got a answer, he would always pretend he couldn't hear me. Let me just tell you I was only five years old.

The Bracelet (Chapter 1)



It all started with that stupid bracelet that I found. If I had not picked it up and tried it on I wouldn't be in all this trouble now. But I suppose you want to hear the full story, so it all started right back to the start of the year.


Chapter 1 

Me And My World

“Sophie! got all your stuff?” Moving, moving and moving it was always a pain and today was that day, packing bags, chucking them into the truck or what you call van. I was so tired of moving and changing school but I got used to after awhile because we did it all the time. My Dad is a secret agent he works for the S.A.S which of course stands for Secret, Agent, Spy, so that's the reason we keep on moving  because of Dad and that job of his it's his fault. But Dad says “You can’t always have everything Sophie”. I just ignore him and walk off. But on the other hand my Mum has a ordinary job she is a school teacher at North High School, that's where things get tricky between the two jobs. A S.A.S that always has to move every two months or so or a High School Teacher that can’t move at all.

So Mum had to quit her job and just had to, had to become another S.A.S. Now I am so angry at Mum for giving up her easy and not so complicated job and going for a more lets just say complex job. “Grr! Parents never understand life”

There's one more person in our family, that is my little brother Johnny. I can’t describe him in any other words then disturbing, annoying and a show off. I know he is only six but once you get to know him he is like a clown but with no humour so he carries on and on and on and on and never gives up.

Mathletics Poster

I have now done a second mathletics poster and I think that this one's my best. I came up with it myself and with a little help from Felicity. I think that I did really well with my mathletics this year but I think I could still work on some things.
