Magical Pencil
My school had posted me a writing topic, and I had to complete it. I picked up my pencil and started to think, all the ideas were jumbled up in my brain, and I could not put my thoughts to paper. Suddenly the pencil jumped out of my hand and let out a reassuring wave. It posed an eerie glow as it illuminated the paper. A magical feeling bubbled through my veins, as my energy gradualy regained. This magical pencil instantly started to write with speeds I had never seen before.
Zooming through the page, it gathered all the information from my brain onto the paper. Once it finished its mystical tour across the paper, it’s glow gradually disappeared, and it slid back into my hand. As I read the golden text, I noticed that this piece of writing was beyond fantastic, I knew it would give me great marks. After reading it, my mind fell into a trance, I could not control myself! I started reciting words of a language that I had never heard of. I felt dizzy and droopy, I was swaying side to side. Thump, I droped to the floor!
When I woke up from my comma, I realised I was in the car, where my mum was driving me to school. I clutched on tightly to my notpad and my pencil. I got out of the car and walked into class. I showed my teacher the imaculate text and she showed it to the entire class. I felt proud, but deep inside I felt like a coward. My teacher announced to the class that we were having a writing assessment.
I picked up my pencil and shivered in anxiety. But then a light illuminated in front of me, and the pencil jumped back to life with lots of energy. He noticed that I was nervous, so he put the lead onto the paper, gave me a quick wink; and started to write…

Day 1 Homework Writing:
Ugh, why do I have to do the dishes today mum, why can’t I just play video games instead of washing the dirty disgusting dishes?! (Mum) “You need to do the dishes because your brother has been washing them all day this month and you haven’t!” (Brother) Yeah, I have been doing them all day long and you have been playing video games.” (Me) ” Well I’ve been paying you to do the dishes for the past several weeks and now I have to do the dishes!” (Mum) “You need to do them because I told you to, so you need to get to the sink otherwise no devices for you.” (Me) “FINE!” EEW these dishes smell like a 100 year compost bin. As I picked up the sponge the dishes started to glow, and flew up into the sky above me, making… A VORTEX, as it sucked me in I clutched on to the sponge, while I got eaten up by the portal! AHHH… Wait a minute, I’m in a restaurant? (Manager) “Start Scrubbing bub, we don’t have all day.” (Me) “WHYYYY… Do I have to??? (Manager) “Yes, Now More scrubbing less talking.” (Me) “Come On!” As I stepped up to the sink I saw that all the dishes, had eyes, and giant mouths, WITH SHARP TEETH. I started sprinting to the door to get out, but when I look the dishes were right on my trail. Then the dishes started glowing and floating up in the air again, then they became a vortex and sucked me in and spaghettified me and spat me back into me dishes in my house!

A Birthday Wish
Lucy was sitting at the edge of her bed, on the morning before her birthday. As she was changing her clothes, her dog, Willow, toddled into her bedroom.
“Who’s my little girly? Who’s my little girly?” Lucy asked, with a soft tone, as she lifted the corgi onto her bed. Lucy jumped out of bed and dressed into her school uniform.
“Today is the last day of school for the term!” Exclaimed Lucy, to her dog “Also for the year! And next year, I will be moving off to big school!” Lucy suddenly frowned. “But that means I can’t be with my friends, because we’re all going to different schools. “But at least I’m going to Brighton College with Anna,” she continued, “and we are going to have so much fun!”
Lucy’s father is extremely rich. He is the founder and owner of one of the UK’s most successful businesses and has tons of assets. Unfortunately, he can’t spend much time with his daughter, being an entrepreneur, so Lucy usually works on homework with some of her friends when they come over. Lucy’s last memory of her mother was when she kissed Lucy goodnight, and she packed her bags, and left out of the blue. Lucy was three and didn’t understand anything. Back then, Lucy’s family was average in terms of wealth. She was going to a normal preschool, and her dad was just an employee for a random company that shut down soon after her father joined. Lucy’s father always told her that it was her mother’s own loss to just have left like that.
After Lucy woke up the next day, she rushed over to her father’s office. He was sitting in front of his computer, looking at the screen.
“Daddy!” Lucy yelled, as she fell into her father’s arms.
“Happy birthday, my sweet angel! Do you want to go to the mall together? Or go somewhere to celebrate your birthday?” Lucy shook her head.
“I want to go find Mummy.”
“Well, sweetie, I have a present for you, that I can only give you tonight.” He replied, with a smug smile. “I can get you a new iPad, or 800 Robux, if you want!” Lucy picked Willow up, and soon, she was snoring on Lucy’s lap.
“It’s ok. Can we go to the mall? I saw on the Louis Vuitton website that they released a new bag!” Her dad nodded.
“Lucy, I have a meeting, real quick, but then we can do whatever we want when I am done, ok?” Before he was done, Lucy had already fetched her iPad and started playing ‘Dress To Impress’.
After they went to the mall, Lucy and her dad sat at the dining table, with the cake chef had prepared for them.
“Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you!” all the servants and Lucy’s father sang. As Lucy blew out the candles, she quietly whispered: “I wish to find mummy someday.” Lucy’s father handed his daughter a locket.
“This.” Lucy’s father told her, with a pause, “Is your mother’s only belonging that she left behind in our old house.” And with a whisper, he added “Keep it safe. One day you will find her.” From that moment, Lucy used her mother’s locket with her photo as a strength. She held it at her heart and stared at it for a long time as she was going to sleep.
“I wish for a mummy.” Lucy muttered, as she fell asleep.
That night, she had a very weird dream. She was out with her friends one day, when the woman she saw in her photo ran up to her and hugged her. She was smothering kisses all over Lucy, and she was feeling very embarrassed in front of her friends. That was all she remembered. The next day, early in the morning, she ran to her father’s office.
“What’s up, my angel pie?” Her father asked. His eyes were sagging, and the part under his eyes were all purple and floppy. He looked sleepy.
“What is my mummy’s name? I want to write her a letter.”
“That’s a good idea! Her name is Eleanor Harrington.” Lucy ran off. She grabbed a piece of paper and started writing.
Dear mummy,
Yesterday was my seventh birthday. Daddy gifted me a locket with your photo. I really miss you. I hope you can come visit us at Belleflower Avenue. And guess what! We have a mansion in the avenue-all too ourselves!
Love,
Lucy Montague
Lucy skipped to the postbox and carefully placed her letter there. She blew a kiss to the letter, and went back home. A few days later, a letter arrived at the postbox.
It was addressed to Lucy! She tore the letter open and read it.
“Dear… Daddy! I can’t read it! It’s too messy!” Lucy’s mum wrote the letter in beautiful cursive, but as a child, Lucy couldn’t read it properly. As her dad came over, he looked at the letter and read it.
“Dear Lucy,” Lucy’s father said “I cannot believe that you are already going to school! I miss you so much, and…” Then, the doorbell rang. One of the servants came into the room, and said “Madame Lucy, and Master Matthew, you have a visitor at your door. Her name is Eleanor Harrington.” Lucy didn’t wait longer for the servant to finish, and raced down the grand stairs. “Mummy!” Lucy squealed “I’m so happy you came! Did you see my letter?”
“I did indeed.” Said the woman who looked like the woman in Lucy’s locket. “I sure did. As soon as I saw it, I told my boss I needed a few days off, and came over here to find you! I cannot believe you have grown so tall and strong now! Hello, Matthew. I’m sorry I left.” Now Lucy’s father had come down the stairs, too.
“Mummy can you stay? Daddy can mummy stay? And also, I’m going to Brighton College next term!”
“Of course, Lucy if you want her to, she can stay forever!” Lucy was so excited that she couldn’t speak. She hugged both of her parents, and dragged them both up the stairs.

The hotdog
The alarm clock had a booming sound at volume 100, and grew miniscule legs and ran off for me to chase it and shut it down for good. I briskly ran to the irritating alarm clock and shut it down therefore I had a great relief when it was shut down. I ate my delicious breakfast, fed my fish and cleaned the floor before I heard it…‘free hotdogs !,Come get your free hotdogs’! so I ran downstairs and opened the door like the flash, but I was sadly too late as there were hundreds of people lining up for a hotdog, what if you were late for a free popsicle ,and there were a couple hundred people? I’d probably feel bored waiting for a singular popsicle, would you?
Suddenly a scorching hot beam of light struck the deceased grass, therefore creating a colossal explosion that temporarily blinded everyone, but the blindness wore off bit-by-bit,-by-bit,-by-bit, until it eventually wore off and reincarnated the grass that was previously deceased, alternated the frowns on the previously bored children and summoned a beautiful, majestic and pretty quad rainbow!
I was enjoying my time there and finally it was my turn to get the hotdog. I slowly got handed my hotdog with juicy toppings on the hotdog, so I briskly took the hotdog and bit a massive bite out of the hotdog, and I couldn’t resist the fascinating flavours dissolving in my giant mouth therefore making me speechless. I thought to myself ‘what if I played soccer on the sand with those children? ’asked myself ,I said to myself ‘they were too young’, so I made my way over to David’s (my friend) Mansion and started my gossip on why someone ate a car on the news.
‘Is that kid an idiot or something’ thoughts started flushing into my mind and there were too many thoughts and that made me just shut down for a while, so I got up, put on my shoes and slowly but steadily walked off to my cramped house. As I arrived yet another beam flashed by my poor little eyes and blinded my eyes again and it slowly faded until I can only see the previously reincarnated people dead and the grass too, so I opened the door, went to the bed and have an extremely deep sleep after all the series of chronological events that has happened today.

The Magical Tree
I loved reading adventure books – more than anything like eating cakes, playing board games or maybe even more than my dog. One sunny morning, I was reading a book under a shady tree in my backyard where the sun painted the tree barks golden. All of a sudden, a shiver went down my spine hypnotizing me and my eyes blurred as I teleported into a magical world upside down with my head dunked in a pit of marshmallows. As I brushed off my hair, I realized I am not in my backyard anymore! A second later, a unique sound tuned in my ears. I turned around in surprise and spotted a willow tree with rainbow, shimmery leaves. It whispered to me “Wisha Wisha!” This just gave me the urge to climb up the magical tree to see what awaited me.
As I approached the tree, a rope dangled from the side. Pulling tight, I climbed it and at the end of it I discovered sweet, juicy, marble sized berries on prickly vines. I quickly picked a few and packed them in my emergency snack box just in case I am hungry. I continued to climb the branches and SPLASH! Laundry water almost poured on me. I shouted, “Watch it!” Out peered an owl through the window and she said, “Oops! Laundry day! Dame Washlot is my name.” I was climbing up more till I saw this pretty girl inside with this glowing moon-faced guy. I knocked on the door and the moon face guy gave me a riddle to solve. It was what starts with t, ends with t and has t in it? I replied, “Teapot!” It surprisingly was right, and he welcomed me in. I replied, “What are you doing here?” They said,” Having a picnic. Do you want to join in?” “Yes please!” I confidently replied. “What are your names?” I replied. “Silky and Moonface.” They spoke. “Let’s eat!” We all exclaimed. Silky had pop cakes that exploded, Moonface had toffee shocks, and I brought sweet berries! When I ate the toffee shock, my mouth was as big as a balloon that burst.
We really enjoyed the picnic and Silky said,” Is it your birthday?” “Yes!” I replied. So, we went up to the birthday land where lots of colorful ballons that sparkled, music was playing from above the cotton candy clouds and there were millions of birthday cakes everywhere! There was a costume barn. I wore a fairy dress, Silky wore a butterfly costume and Moonface wore a pirate costume full on with eye patches and a sword. There was a flying cake that grants us wishes. I wished for fly, but I sneezed while saying it, and it came out as fry. Then the cake exploded into boiling pancakes. At least Moonface had a piece of cake and then I wished to fly, and we were all flying in the sky. There were floating presents we had to fly to. We all got one. I got stacks of adventure books, Silky got a sparkly barbie doll, and Moonface got a golden ticket for a trip to the moon! The land was about to move so we went down the slippery slip. As we went back to Moonface’s cabin, we all enjoyed the adventure we just had and were waiting for another one of these moments to come again.
