In our class we are still doing projects and my group is the twitter story called ManyVoices. Here is a copy of the story my group has been revising
Chapter 5.
I slipped and fell on the pavement. The world blacked out… When I saw the world again, I also felt very slimy. The slime was starting to harden; I could feel it keeping me stuck to the ground. I tried to get up, but fell suddenly. “What will I do?” Now it’s really starting to harden! Soon I could die; I need help. Maybe someone could hear me, and help me. Anyone? Then all of a sudden I heard footsteps coming closer, closer. I tried to look up to see who it was, but the slime was too hard. As the footsteps drew nearer, the hairs on the back of my slender neck rose. I saw a stain of rouge on the ground near my head. “Blast it that is definitely NOT a fish!” The voice sounded young. There was an ear shattering crack, and the hardened slime turned to dust. I pulled my head up with the strength left in my body. I tried to open my eyes but I could only see a few faint lights glowing in the distance, I think. I couldn’t tell where I was, and I could hardly see anything. I started to see a very large silhouette coming towards me. I couldn’t tell what it was. The “thing” had a long, dark, tattered cloak on. I was so frightened, I suddenly fainted. When I awoke, I got on my feet and there was somebody having a campfire. I asked who he was. He said his name was Bob Flynton. Wasn’t Bob Flynton the human who came to the fair several years ago…on his…mission? “There is not an exit,” said Bob. “What do I do now?” I thought to myself. I looked around the campsite; there was a fence around the campsite. I could always try to talk to this guy. I wasn’t sure if he was dangerous though. His long-ago mission had left us all knowing the evils that he brought upon the fish. “Have you robbed any fish lately?” I asked him, scared of his grisly beard. He might have trouble waiting for me in his bag. “Why are you keeping me here? I demand to know why!” I said with a slight shake in my voice. He looked at me and merely said, “For reasons which I can not tell you. But you WILL find out shortly,” said Bob. “But why-” I said, but Bob had just hit me over the head. I felt cold. Not once in my life had I felt as cold as I had now. Numbing my limbs freezing my blood. I awoke to see ice. I was in my sarcophagus.
Chapter 6.
Sheer fear began to rise up in me. I started banging and shouting, hoping for someone to hear me; as I fought to keep the panic in me down. I stopped, there is no hope. I began to feel pain in my tail fin and suddenly the scales rolled off, revealing human legs, I felt free but confused, only a moment ago I was half fish, now being human raises new questions about my past; there was nothing to do as I closed my eyes. I woke up this morning, feeling all alone in this world. However, I feel weird and dirty after this transformation. There’s no point living. i had to start somewhere I am now one of them, I had to start living my life not knowing what this cruel world had in store for me. No can hear me am I a loner god I need help I think I need therapy help me please…. I complain too much…maybe if I stop complaining….things will change for me….maybe a more interesting twist to my lame story… So I started looking through the paper finding a job… Aha! A real estate agent… nah too boring! And then I look again, And I found it… A Marine biologist! That way I can figure out how to turn back into a mermaid, hopefully they give that kind of class. As I walk to the office, I bumped into a super hot young man. He was a pearl diver at the new marina named Aquaman and he showed me the way to the Marine biologist’s office. As we walked he told me about how much he loved pearl diving. Suddenly a man came out of the bushes. It was… bum bum buummmmm!!! Anti-Aqua man!! Aqua mans arch rival. It was him, I didn’t even have to look twice, it was a face that had been burned into my mind, all the memories surfaced, I hit the ground running. It was anti-Aquaman! The man that was responsible for the disappearance of my family! I thought that I had lost him long ago. But then he shot out this laser beam thing which was going to destroy the aqua-world as we know it!
Chapter 7.
Suddenly AquaMan pulls out a mirror and deflects the laser beam and hits anti-Aquaman and knocks him out. We tie him up and find a document! The document contained pictures off my family. I was shocked I thought I had lost them forever but I was wrong. I was shocked but suddenly a shiver ran down my spine I have to find my family before its too late… I decided to start my search in the diving department. I opened the door with a shudder, to my horror there were scaly creatures inside. I SCREAMED they were dark red and scaly they had large claws and mysterious black eyes they looked like dragons then I noticed they were… giant pythons lurking in the depths of the darkness getting closer and closer until they attacked then one of the giant pythons grabbed my leg and I was dragged from the unidentified documents that nobody has ever seen before and the python cut bit me one more time but I was able to get away. I walked outside then I screamed HELP ME I’m being attacked, my leg was bleeding. Help call an ambulance please! I woke up in the hospital and I did not no where I was I screamed as some thing approached me quickly. AHRRRRR what was the noise I thought to myself. Was it a MONSTER or a TRESPASSER? Oh no what are we going to do call the police hurry then I mean it No! We will sort it out our self’s I said to myself. I walked round the corner and shot a laser beam I had took then I saw what I had done! What was I going to I needed to get more help so I went into the street and looked for help but there was nobody around I had to think I needed to find more help and fast but there was nobody around so I had to think of another plan before it’s to late. The monster had wolf claws and vampire teeth and one eye its name was Phonopeos and someone broken door of the haunted mansion the person I felt dead. I tried to scream but I couldn’t. I felt something sliding up my leg what could it be? It felt extremely slimy. IT WAS A SNAKE!
Chapter 8.
It was hissing words of death, “Rasmos. Andros . Senthrais.” Clutching the documents I panicked and yelled, “HELP!” But no words came out. It darted its long, slender tongue and pierced its sharp yellow fangs into my flesh. The pain was unbearable. I felt dead inside. All the pain was running up my spine. I knew that my nightmare was not over!! I yelled for help as best I could, feel my spirits fading. I closed my eyes. There was no way to escape. Then I heard footsteps. I thought that was help, but I was nervous too. Was it a bad guy? I looked back and saw a doctor. The doctor picked me up and carried me to his lab. In his lab, he started to do experiments on me. I was so excited. After the experiment, I looked at my leg. It was cut! I was so angry, so I took out a laser beam. But I couldn’t shoot. There was no energy. Suddenly I saw strange syringes. I asked the doctor what they were for, but he did not answer. I felt very scared. I screamed again. Suddenly the doctor came and took me to a bed. Strangely, a rope came out and tied me up. I felt very nervous. The doctor took me somewhere, but I don’t know where. I felt very strange. The doctor locked the door and ran out. When I pushed the door with my body it didn’t open. So I shouted “Help me!” I think nobody heard my shout. So I felt like dying. Actually, I thought I would die. But then I breathed very fresh air. So I thought I could escape this place! I looked for an open window. I saw sunshine in the corner. I walked to it. There was an open window. I wanted to open it more but I couldn’t because I was pretty tired. I looked for another exit. I saw nothing, nothing at all. The sun had set. The room was dark. I was scared. I heard, “You will suffer.” Then I noticed a table in the corner. On it was a document which I picked up. It contained the whereabouts of my family. The door burst open. I spun around, finding the doctor standing there, brandishing a knife in his hand. He sneered. “You have a choice…..” “Give me the document and I will set you free. Otherwise I shall kill you. Make your choice now. I give you 5 seconds. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1!!!”
Chapter 9.
“Wait!” I scream. “First tell me who you are and why I am here.” “I am Dr. Bob Flynton. I worked with your parents in a lab for years.” Dr. Flynton continued. “Your parents have a gene that can transform humans into mermaids. Together we created you. We kept you in a lab. Your parents wanted you to be free so they tried to get you away from the lab. I couldn’t let that happen! I could make millions on your DNA. So I locked your parents in a secret location. And now, hand over those documents if you want to see your parents again.” I knew he lied. He would never let me see my parents. So, very slyly, I snatched the pages out of the folder and handed the empty folder to Dr. Flynton. Then, as he turned to the computer, I threw my empty laser gun at his head. He fell to the ground and I limped quickly out of the building. I hid in an alley and looked at the papers. My parents were still alive and in a secret room in the Empire State Building . I was going back. Back in NYC, I reread the papers to find that I need to go to the top floor of the building and find the hidden door behind the painting. I had to lean on the painting to make it turn. Behind the painting was a slide that took me to the basement. There I opened the door and… All I found was Phonopeos, the monster guarding another room. I could hear my parents yelling for help from behind the door. What could I do?
We are doing what is called an MYP project and that means it is like doing IB only more towards pre-IB.
