Gambling

In Writing we were writing a rhyming story with a moral! Here is mine and Hope you enjoy!

Gambling

Once there were two boys named Peanut Butter and Smoked Brisket, who lived under the watchful eye of the Elder Malt Biscuit.

Once they wandered far, far, far away from their home, and while finding a way back, they spotted a Casino. They went inside and played. Played. PLAYED. But after they left, they felt betrayed. The Casino Owner entered wearing a suit of teal, as soon as he saw the money they made, he struck up a deal. He said “If you win another round, you get all the Casino’s currency, but if you lose I get everything! Including your very property!” Blinded by greed Peanut Butter rolled the dice, but Smoked Brisket could tell the Casino Owner wasn’t very nice. The Casino Owner was a natural, everyone would always lose and when they did they cried “Bad News!”. They left the Casino feeling Glum “Hey! Don’t let the door hit your Bum!”. As Smoked Brisket from sadness was about to Vomit, the Casino Owner followed for the deed to their house was promised. As Elder Malt Biscuit cried tears of sad, on that day Peanut Butter and Smoked Brisket learned gambling, was bad.

Bill the Serial Killer

In school, we had to write a story that had different types of punctuation, such as elipses, speech marks or semi colins.

Bill the Serial Killer

Once there was a man named Bill and he was a real trouble maker, he didn’t just fib; he killed! Bill was a Serial Killer. Bill was merciless when it came to killing, he would torture his victims in any kind of way, physically, emotionally, mentally. He always takes a picture of him with his tortured victims and it always ends the same way… his victim always die, when the police arrive there are no fingerprints on the murder weapon because Bill always wears gloves or sprays off his fingerprints.

But one day Bill made a big mistake! He was just doing his normal thing, slaying a family. He tortured the whole family, especially the dad. When he was done with the rest of the family he killed them right in front of the dad’s eyes, this is one of his methods of emotionally torturing someone. He quickly snapped a photo and put it in his pocket (He uses one of those old cameras that spit out the image once it is taken), and swung a baseball bat at the dad’s head multiple times and left.

But he made a big mistake, he didn’t make sure that the dad was dead. When he left, the picture flew out of his pocket and onto the ground, hours later the dad woke up and saw the picture, he called the cops and they were able to track down Bill. They went to the run down warehouse where Bill lived, “HAND’S IN THE AIR CRIMINAL… Mmmkay!” Bill had finally been captured, he was put to court and sentenced to death by lethal injection.

He got what he deserved!

The Life of a Meat Patty

In our class we were writing stories set in the past. We had to write about a random item (e.g a Meat Patty) from its perspective. I wrote about the sad terrifying life, of a Meat Patty.

Planning

The Life of a Meat Patty

One day at the farm, a truck stopped by. Farmer Jeb came up to me and my fellow cow friends and said “Off to the slaughter house with ya!” then started guiding us to the truck. When we got off of the truck the people driving the truck lead us into a building with a sign on the door saying ‘Slaughter House! Where farm animals go to die!’ They took us into a room, then one of them came to me and struck me with an axe. Everything went black.

I woke up a while later on a Gigantic table, I tried to run away, but it seemed that my legs were gone! A Giant Man stood in front of the table and grabbed me, he started to press against me with the palm of his hand and squish me, into a puck like object, He threw me onto a tray and I looked around, I was in some sort of factory. It seemed that they were making me into some sort of food! I passed out, just at the thought that I’m going to be eaten!

I woke up, finding myself on a soft bread like surface, a giant hand came down all of a sudden and put some sort of yellow sheet on me. The sheet felt warm like the milk from my udders, and started to melt onto my body. Then another giant bread like object is put on top of me, they put me into some sort of miniature cardboard box and everything went black for a minute or two.

The box has opened and I see a man sitting in front of me, "I can't wait to dig in!" he said, 'Is this the end? Is this how I die?' I thought to myself. The man takes a bite out of me, I tried to ‘Moo’, but I didn’t have a mouth. He kept on biting and biting, until there was nothing left.

Blank Canvas

Blank Canvas

Somewhere in a museum in Italy, after closing hours. There was thief who wanted to steal the Mona Lisa. He was getting lowered down by one of those tether rope things, that people in those spy movies use when their stealing something valuable, from an art gallery or museum. He finally had the Mona Lisa in his hands. He was about to leave, but since his tether rope harness thing broke all of a sudden, he couldn’t leave. Two woman walked slowly towards him, he stood as still as possible.  “And here’s the Mona Lisa” said Number One,  they looked at the blank canvas where the Mona Lisa was supposed to be. “... I guess they moved her somewhere else.” Number One said.

“Hey, what’s this?” Number Two said. “I guess it’s new,” Number One replied. The Thief stared at Number Two, as she observed him, and he started to sweat, and even cry a little. “I love how the eyes look at me wherever I go” said Number Two. “The expression on his face is sort of telling me “Why haven’t they called the cops yet?”, that sort of vibe” Number One said, “No no no, it’s more of a “Are they playing dumb or something?” sort of feel to it” Number Two corrected, “Or maybe his face is saying “Are they blind or something!? The Mona Lisa is sticking out of the duffel bag I’m holding bag”” Number One said, “Hmmmmmmmm, maybe. But there’s one thing for sure...” said Number Two, she paused for a moment and me and Number One were staring at her, “This art is AMAZING! I’ll take it! But let’s see more first!”. They left the building, then the Thief sighed with relief. The Thief waited till morning, only to find out they upped their security systems. Security Camera’s EVERYWHERE! Since there was no escape from the museum, he was fated to live the rest of his life, as art.

A Creature with eyes as red as blood, teeth as hard as diamonds, claws as sharp as a knife and a mouth that could swallow a child whole, breaks down the door. It scans the area and the man screams in terror. The monster leaps at the man and the man tries to scream , but he is so scared that his vocal cords stop working. The creature is now attacking the man and he starts to black out, there is no way escape from this creature.
