Earthquake - a story by Logan & Archie

Earthquake!

CHAPTER 1

I’m in my house watching 'Wipeout' on TV. Suddenly I feel a very big shake. The TV falls to the ground.

”Earthquake!” I shout as I dive under the table.  I see complete darkness. Suddenly I feel a soft, wet thing on my ear. I look up to see my dog licking my ear. Suddenly the table tips sideways as Rex jumps to the window. I go to the window, as I hear a crackling noise, I open the window to find...

Chapter 2

..."A PETROL CAN is ON FIRE!!” I yell, rushing away from the window.

"Logan!’’ I shout, "Stay away from the window," but I leave the window open and the fire spreads onto the curtains!! I reach for the door; shut! There is a pile of rocks blocking the door. I reach for the window; shut! We’re stuck in our house so the emergency helicopter can’t see us!! And our house is on Fire!   

Chapter 3

I start to think about how to get out then I get it...we can push the door to move the rocks. I call Logan and tell him to push. We push and push until I hear a rock smash to the ground. The hinges come off the door and suddenly the door falls backwards. Rocks tumble inside,

‘It was lucky I didn’t walk forward,’ I think to myself. I run outside and wave my arms around and The helicopter sees me!

It lands and we get in. The nurse in the helicopter has a look at Logan’s leg, (because he says it hurts), it turns out it is broken.

The helicopter drops us off in Christchurch and we stay there for the rest of our lives.  

The end, by Logan and Archie.
