5th Graders Are Taking Their Shot!

THE CHINESE WARRIORS  It was a normal afternoon in sydney Australia when the chinese warrior statues started to talk to each other first it was the blue one to the red one then it was the green one to the orange on and soon enough everyone started to talk to everyone and it was all a mess then that when it happened….. A little kid saw them moving and talking and he SCREAMED and soon the chinese warrior statue police came rushing through and they had to carry the kid out to find his parents then the statue went to prison.     

On A bright day today I was walking on the beach and saw clay things on the beach and no one put them there. They can’t walk or they can’t magically be here. I went to look at them closer and what I saw was a thing that you don’t forget. It was real people frozen in clay. My first glance was terrifying just looking at one almost made my throw up. I started to walk away when they started to move and ran after me. I think they were going to freeze me in the clay too. I died.       

On a sunny morning, I take a plane to go skydiving.  I jump out doing a backflip and soar through the crisp blue sky. As I'm about to pull my black & lime green parachute...I see Tiny colorful dots on a beach. Oh No! That is where I’m suppose to land! I tried to steer away from these fake people but, end up crashing into one!  Then the one I hit crashes into another one and then the domino effect happens! Ouch, I cried out and hear them all crash to the ground. I’m seeing stars...Lights out for me!

100 word Challenge  By Evie Colorful inflatable people in an alternate universe. They walk in a world, colorful like themselves. Undisturbed by problems like those on Earth. An ideal universe you could say. Through universes they go. Wanting to visit Earth. Day and days they travel. Unaware of Earth’s flaws. At last they arrive, a tenth of their population. What do they see?  The sky.  Not as clear or as colorful as their sky back home. But it’ll do. People, not as colorful as them.  But it’ll do. The humans see the newcomers. The newcomers go rigid. Stuck on Earth forever. Seen as an attraction. 

Today when walking down the road to the beach I saw a very strange sight. I blinked but the figurines were still there standing on colored baseplates. They were taller than me. Towering over me. All looking at me but not really seeing me. Colored with colors so bright. Wait what no I didn’t imagine it at all. All the figurines were moving in a dance. Then they saw me. Then I ran hoping they wouldn't care that I saw them.

One day I was walking with my family and we passed a lot of people that looked real.  On the other hand the people that were standing there looked fake. It looked almost like the people were statues.  After that, me and my family went to get some food for lunch. The food was really good. On the way back to our car we passed the same people that were statues the first time we passed them. The second time we passed the people they were real people doing yoga. I thought to myself, “it’s been a weird day today.”            

The Chinese Warriors By Sadie Late at night in Sydney, Australia the statues of chinese warriors awoke. Noone is sure what they do when we are sleeping, until one night in late spring.  The last light in the city turned off. It was completely dark. “Power outing,”  A blue statue whispered to a red one. “Let’s go make some mischief,” the red said. They walked all over the town,(which was against the rules.) when they were walking back to their home the street lights came on. I was there that night and I wasn’t the only one who saw them talking.
