I Heard Burglars
AN - Year 6
I awakened to the eeriness of my old, spooky bedroom. My throat was raw and dry. I decided to go and get a drink. Delicately, I tip-toed down the groaning stairs… it felt as if they were stopping me from venturing down them. Maybe there was something down there… A silhouetted shadow danced passed the curtains, as an amazing moonbeam slanted through the house, the stars and the moon smiling in delight of the beautiful night. I heard a noise. Some sort of clambering, then a cackle. A man, wait, two, in black, stripy clothing and balaclavas. Burglars! “No, it couldn’t be; should I run? No wait, I’ll follow them!” I whispered to the stars. Just my luck, though, they heard me. A tall, dark man with a deep voice pulled me viciously into a large sack. I heard them chuckling at me, and I knew I should get out. They threw the sack into which felt like a car boot… everything started to spin… I woke up terrified. Where was I? Where had they taken me? But, I recognised the ceiling. I was back in my bedroom, my lovely bedroom. Wow, I thought… What an adventure!
