Planet Krypton

“Oh no,” shouts  Commander Robot.  

“A meteor shower is coming towards us,” say Alien.

A big bolder bangs into their spaceship. BANG!!

Their spaceship breaks down.

“Don't worry whispers Alien. There is a planet called Krypton near by.”

“Krypton looks so creepy because it is hot it has no gravity and has big bursting geysers,” says Robot.

The two friends quickly fix their broken spaceship and fly out to Krypton.

When they get to Krypton Alien says,

“ I am so hot.”

“Don’t worry. We will get home soon,” says Robot.

“I hope so,” says Alien in a crying voice.

Suddenly Robot hears a sound from the distance. It was Alien’s family.

Mum,Dad you found me. Our spaceship broke down.”

“We will give you a ride,”

“Thanks said Robot,” with excitement.

Today I was learning how to use speech marks in my story.

The Tamaki River

Karlos and I stood at the peaceful Tamaki River.The seagulls were flying above us and expensive yachts were bobbing up and  down on the calm water.We smelt rotting shellfish and it made our stomach turn.

Suddenly Karlos went to close to the jetty and  SPLASH! He was waving his arms and calling for help. His eyes were as huge as flying saucers.My friend was in huge trouble because he was not a confident swimmer.

I went looking for help when I saw an old rope under some wood.I  threw it to Karlos.I said,”Grab on to that old raft and hold the rope.” Karlos floated down to the shore and landed safely.

As we were walking home I told Karlos how scared I had felt while he was in the water.

“Next time you shouldn’t walk too close to the edge of the jetty.”

“ You do not need to remind me of that because I have learnt my lesson.” he replied in an embarrassed voice.
