Don't deal with the DIceman
Don’t deal with the Diceman
Two brothers by the name of Mick & Mack fancied themselves a subway everyday, but the one faithful day they came across a pitch black alleyway. They had to have something for defence, so they carried a butter knife, but little did they know going through the alleyway there would change their life. The boys thought they would meet someone nice. Instead they found a sketchy figure whose head was shaped like a piece of dice. The man came closer, and the boys began to sweat. Then the man revealed his face saying, “would you like to make a bet”.
The brothers never had time to properly think a situation out, so they agreed without second thought, but by the end of the day, there will be a lesson the boys are taught. Before they could make a shake of the dice, the man explained some rules while looking for his head lice. He said that the boys had to get a total of seven when the dice has been rolled. Otherwise the boys would have to pay with their souls. Blinded by easy riches, Mick had forgotten about their cheating strategy and quickly rolled the dice. When the dice had stop rolling….
He had rolled a snake eyes!
The boys were on their knees and begged for another roll, and instead the man had spared their soul. Instead of the Diceman controlling the boys like voodoo dolls, he said they would have to retrieve 5 other souls.The Dice had aslo added to retrieve the souls by the sight of no light.The boys agreed it would take resilience and strength, to fight at the creatures with their limitless length.
First they came across MintberryCrunch, but with the enhanced power of their fists, they had defeated him with one punch. Then they came across Hilda Berg, but little did she know what was coming, well what we learn. On the way they met Goopa-Le-Grande, and the way they defeated was with the irritating voice of Ariana Grande. The boys said with confidence "you know, there always is a silver lining" but they never should've spoke to soon, for the sun stopped shining.
Due to the no longer sight of the shine, they would have to say goodbye, for one last time..
To be continued..

Cuddles the Dog
In our class, we have been told to write stories that would feature punctuation such as Ellipsis and Speech marks. What I enjoyed was making my story rhyme. What I could do next time is to add images.
Cuddles the Dog
Cuddles may have looked innocent to the human eye, but no one has ever experienced his dark evil side.
Cuddle’s owners had taken him out to spend a few dollars, then cuddles quietly whispered, “time to show my true colours”...
He nicked a few dimes, and a few cooking books. Then when people looked at him suspiciously, he just gave them the cute look.
After his successful heist, he felt like nothing could stop him. On his way, coming out the closet….
Fell a raggedy old Toboggan.
“CRASH”The owners immediately ran to see what happened to their cuddles, then they saw a bag of what they thought their dog had smuggled.
The owners investigated and finally found a trace, and with a quiet voice the owner said, “I arrest my case”...
He didn’t want to be known for his sin, so he pointed at a innocent dog and said “It was him”.
Everyone now was confused, soon enough confuddled. Though, by the size of the paw prints, it was obviously cuddles.
Cuddles was never forgiven for his crime, so he was locked up in the laundry for a long period of time.

The life of a can of Sardines
This week in our class, we were told to write a story about an object or something that probably wouldn't talk. One example being a Tree. My Story is about the life of a can of sardines. Keep in mind that the story had to be set in past tense. What I enjoyed was writing from the perspective of a sardine. What I could do next time is to add more complex sentences.
The life of a can of Sardines
It was a fine day in my wonderful home. The Glorious sun shined its bright and positive light, and my tribe enjoyed the feeling of safe citizens. Although, it wasn’t long until darkness that was blacker than lacquer had slowly blocked our vision from the light. Everyone was looking with confusion. Being distracted by the darkness, had caught the warriors off guard. Before the blink of an eye, we had been lifted above the surface by a strange object, it was a net!
Due to the lack of water, we had blacked out faster than the speed of light. With the sprinkle of a miracle, we had opened our eyes and yet again saw the beautiful sun. Although, we all knew that it was soon to be over. We scanned with our diligent eyes to see what was the situation, and we soon came to realise we were going to be dinner. I didn’t want my life to have a short gruesome ending!
We were all spazzing out with fear, our water supply on the ground was nearly soon to be nothing but dry concrete. The bright sun decided to shed low heat on our bodies. We were soon to be dried out. While we were suffering, we heard the fishermen rejoicing for their amazing luck of catching a whole society of innocent Sardines. The fishermen put us into a heavy contraption while carrying a very sharp blade. It was sure to be the end.
We were squished in like a big family. I absolutely hated it. The fishermen smothered us in this weird seasoning which caused to tear some of our skin. They were ready to begin the uncomfortable process, but what seemed to them as preparing dinner on a casual day. One fisherman decided to be sneaky and tuck on sardine in his mouth. He had so many sardines to choose from, but it looked to him as I was the most juiciest one. Even though WE ALL LOOKED THE SAME!!!! Luckily, one fisherman had slapped his hand which made me fall back into the bowl. The fisherman also said that we shouldn’t cut off the heads. I was very thankful for that. After a good few minutes of oiling us, they had put us in a tin that I wasn’t looking forward to fit in with my family. We were soon opened after so many centuries, the lid was gently opened, and were welcome to the mouth of an infant

Is Graffiti Art or Messy?
In Our class, we were told to write a persuasive text about whether Graffiti is art or Messy. Me Personally decided to say that it was art. What I enjoyed was learning about this interesting graffiti artist by the name of Bansky. What I could do next time is to add more information on how I can persuade the reader.
Is Graffiti Art or Messy?
Is graffiti art or just messy? In my opinion, I strongly believe that graffiti is art. Here are some reasonable facts on why it’s art.
Let’s start off with my first reason. Graffiti artists one example Banksy likes to make pieces of art, and the majority of graffiti art have a meaningful symbol behind it such as: Soldiers painting the peace sign, Dreams cancelled, there is hope and many more. Although, there are scribbles of swear words, names and texts. In that case, that’s called vandalism.
Moving on, there are currently some horrible wars going on, and some artists one of which called Banksy spray painted wonderful pictures to represent the war and how there should be peace. One example is called, “Soldiers painting peace”. They also represent the fact we should stop the hatred and war.
On my last fact on why graffiti is art, I really can’t understand why society would criticize the beautiful art of graffiti. It may cost a lot of money to tear it down, but why would you tear something so amazing. Looking back at the scribbled words, it may look unpleasant, but I would look to it as art aswell, at least for the originator.
In conclusion, I strongly agree to the people who believe graffiti is art. As you saw with my supported facts. Like how society shouldn’t criticize it, the meaning behind the art and the horrible wars. I believe this should’ve persuaded you to believe that graffiti is art.

A blank canvas
Benjamin
In a land far far away, lied an ancient sword that was a gift from the one and only. Zeus. Retrieving this sword would grant wondrous power beyond warriors abilities, and possession of the finest riches. However, getting this sword in the grasp of your hands was not an easy task. The sword was injected in the toughest stone. Warriors with powerful strength have triumphed, but have failed. The sword is known to be located in a village where the villagers that lived there, suffered from poverty and hatred.
Behind all this hatred and suffering, lived a young boy by the name of Benjamin. He was eager to pull that sword out of the stone, but his strength level was the same as a four year old child. Although, he wasn’t going to let that stop him. Through day and night, through rain and storm. He trained until he could move a muscle. Atlast, it was time to face the Sword, Benjamin was ready. He gave the sword a good grip, and pulled with all his strength.. His whole face was drenched in sweat. He didn’t want his training to be useless. After solid Five and a half hours, “ZINGG!!!” the sword finally came off. Benjamin came flying off the rock. Hikers heard an awfully weird sound from the distance. They quickly rushed to see what had happened. To their surprise, they saw a young boy with the sword of Zeus pulled out of the stone. They looked with amazement. “How could this be?!!, no warrior has ever pulled the sword of almighty Zeus!! This young boy is a living, breathing legend!!!!”. Atlast, Benjamin had become the most powerful warrior in all of Zarzia.
Our class was told make a piece of art that had a story behind it. What I liked was telling interesting story. What I could do next time is to be more creative with my image.
