100 Word Challenge - Week 5 by Cyrus

The Running Donkey


Once there was a King that lived in Turkey.  He went to his Royal farm and heard a loud noise, as he looked around he saw… a donkey!! Kicking the wooden fence the donkey looked angry and he started chasing the King.  The King ran as fast as he could to the castle and hid under his bed for two weeks.  Finally the donkey made it to the castle and found the King kicking him out of his bedroom window.  “Oww!” The King screamed as he lost his left leg in the middle of the road. Before he could get it back the Queen ran over it.

I was about to fall asleep and for some reason I heard my name.  As I looked around the room, out the corner of my eye I saw a shadow.  I knew who it was, he was coming for his revenge to be a real boy.  I had a feeling he was coming.  All these years it has finally come to this day.  If you are listening to me make sure to lock your doors and close your windows.  And yes this is a drill.  You just need to know, beware Pinocchio is coming for you and your friends.  Warning!!

Look Around I'm Behind You!

"AHHHHH!" The screams come from the old abandoned theater.  People have gone in and never come out. "Should we go in?" Asked my friend. I paused and said, "yes" with blackness in my voice. We open the doors, they creaked like a crow. We see a black thing shoot across the stage. We hear someone say, "look around I'm behind you!" My friend ran out in terror. I sit on one of the dust covered seats. As soon as I sit down the lights flicker on and off. As I looked around there was a scream of menacing darkness!

100 Word Challenge - Week 4 by Sydney

I looked all over the Internet, finally I found it, the crocodiles. I scrolled down, there was an orange crocodile. It said to get an orange crocodile, you mix pepper, milk, orange juice and a soft piece from a crocodile toy and give it to a crocodile to drink. You will get an orange crocodile. It also said side effects but I forgot to read them. After I went to my pet crocodile and fed him the mix, nothing happened so I went to bed. I woke up and my crocodile was a different colour.

100 Word Challenge - Week 4 by Kyle

One day, I was at a candy store and I saw gummy crocodiles. They were orange and they were soft.  Sooo I bought 10 of them.  I eat five, the other five were for Pepper my sister.  I forgot to give them to her and they grew bigger and bigger, they were life sized.  So we had gummy crocodiles for supper for 1 month, then we went to the dentist.  My sister had 21 cavities I had none. My sister asked, "how many cavities do you have?"
 I said, "none!"
"What? None?"
"Yep!" 
"Lucky! I have 21 cavities! Mom has...."

100 Word Challenge - Week 4 by Kennedy

One day I walked in the door and came face to face with my mom.  She yelled "Go and get oranges and some pepper!"  She hands me a twenty dollar bill and walks away.  I hang my backpack up, put the money in my sweater pocket and walk out the door on my way to the store.  I decide to take the long way to the store, the way along the lake.  I see a very soft looking thing swimming in the water.  As the whole head pops up I notice its a crocodile!  So I ran home as fast as I could and forgot about what I was asked to buy.
