THE MOVE

One boring day, two girls Alishia and Renee, were moving into an old, small, mouldy, boring, worst, weird, creepy, weedy, dark, hopeless, cheap, scary, messy annoying, stinky, crazy cottage. ‘It isn't that bad, plus it is the best place we can afford'' Dad said. ''The lower the price is the worst the house is. Don't you know that yet Dad'' Renee cried still mad about the fact that her parents liked it.

Finally, they got there and it was full of weeds and mould. '' I’m not cleaning any of this up'' said Renee. '' Relax sis!'' screamed Alishia. They all walked inside and it was full of weeds and mould. ‘I’m not cleaning anything up. ‘Renee said. ‘Relax sis!'' Alishia cried. It was that small that Alishia and Renee had to share a tiny room together.

THE FOREST

''I’m bored'' said Renee. '' Me too’ ‘Alishia said. ‘Why don't you girl explore the forest'' their Mum said excitedly. So that was what they did. They entered the forest and all they could see where trees. Big, tall, green trees. The forest was exciting. More exciting than inventing something worth 30 MILLION DOLLARS! ''I guess things aren't so boring around here. It’s just the house that is boring’ ‘said Renee who was still fascinated by the forest.'' Maybe we can camp out here instead of that old junk house.'' Alishia started walking deeper into the forest then turned back to Renee and said’ ‘great plan there’s no way I’m sleeping in that old cottage.''

The two girls ran back to get their stuff and took it into the forest. They got their tent set up and started to eat the dinner their Mum had made for them. It started to get dark so the girls hopped in to the tent and curled up together.

''What’s that light. It's blinding me and I can't get back to sleep'' Alishia said pointing to a light that was very strong. The two girls sat upright shielding their eyes. They got up out of the tent and started walking towards the light to investigate.

They arrived where the light was coming from. They looked to the ground and saw two beautiful necklaces. Alishia quickly ducked down and got the best of the necklaces. It had a diamond on it. Renee went down and got the other one which had an emerald on it.'' On the count of three we will put the necklaces on. Alishia said looking at the necklaces astonished. '' 1, 2, 3’’ and both girls put their necklaces on. As soon as they were on both girls fainted.
