ChaseMy friend was over for a cup of coffee, again. They may have been my friend but… They always made me mad, embarrassed, scared or worst of all… Small. They never came invited, they just showed up when they wanted a drink. “Here’s your coffee,” I said, handing them my dad's drink. (My friend lacks patience so I need to be quick.) “Coffee?” He asks in horror. I swallowed, if I get something wrong my so called friend makes me pay for it. “I want tea NOT coffee!” He screams. Okay I know you're probably asking why this guy is my friend a...

“I dare you to climb up to the top of that house, or I’ll tell everyone you're a chicken,” I said to my friend, Toby. “No,” Toby replied simply, “I’m not an idiot, my health matters more to me.” I stopped in my tracks, “Toby,” I said coldly, “no one says no to me.” Toby froze, “fine,” he said, “I’ll do it,” I smiled, “there’s a good friend,” I said. Toby grabbed onto a pipe attached to the house and started climbing, soon he was half way up. “Keep going,” I called up, Toby continued up the house. Snap! The pipe broke, Toby tumbled to the g...
He looked down the dusty path ahead of him, a path he had been walking on for 10 years. Gravel Road was only 10 km long, and yet no one that had crossed ever returned. The reason for this mayhem, ‘The Brothers Right,’ The most stubborn twins on earth.From the day they had been born, the brothers had argued about the most pointless things: The name of an ant, how a goldfish had died, who had seen a building first. The twins would never come up with a solution to their problems, in fact they still would fight today if they weren't a 10 kilomet...

Tom Have you ever been in that situation when you are in a serious emergency but you can’t tell anyone. Well if you have you might have a similar story to mine, it all happened last year. I was at McDonalds for my best friend's birthday party when it happened, I was just walking around when a man in a Ronald Mc Donald costume walked past me. He looked at me and said “Come here child…” Ok, that was a bit weird and I was now questioning if this really was a man in a suit. So I kept my distance, that made him mad. “I said COME HERE child…” He...
You can’t believe what's happened to you, you are lost in the middle of a carnival. It is completely empty and a 6 metre thick, 20 metre high concrete wall surrounds you. Everyone in the world has forgotten all about you, to sum it up, you’re trapped. As you get ready to give up you notice two suspicious looking paths, could they get you out of here? One goes under the Ferris wheel and the other goes past the roller coaster. You think for a moment, which one should you take?Under the Ferris wheel - Page 1Past the roller coaster - Page 2Page ...

Note: Allergies are not contagious.I walked along the beach on a hot summer’s day, there wasn’t a cloud in the sky. The sun was beaming down on me, it was going to be a lovely day.Little did I know it was going to be the worst day ever.Kids ran past me, and I heard one talking about his allergies. ‘Stupid child,’ I thought. Kids with allergies shouldn’t go in public, in case the allergy is contagious. I wondered what allergy the brat had, it might be a bad one. When I got home I looked in the mirror. I swear it nearly shattered when I looked...

Imagine, you are in a crowded city and you pass millions of people on your way to the library. But everyone and everything you pass is exactly the same. Your book is overdue and you will have to pay a fine if it is not returned soon. Everyday from now, the fine will increase by a dollar. The library is just a kilometre away and you could run it in a minute. But every second that passes is a day and every minute that passes is a year. What if Time was dragging you back with every chance? What if you could see yourself going through this while...
