Taken
Ring went the bell. Ross began on her walk home. She was very tired because she had a big day. As she was walking a car pulled up right beside her. “Hi little girl would you like a ride home,” asked two men. “Well my feet are tired and I do live far, so okay,”she answered and hopped into the car.
“You can stop now I live in this house here,”Ross said pointing to her house, but the men did not listen and carried on. “Stop!!!,” Ross shouted. They put a bag over her head so that no one could hear her cries. Ross start to get scared.
Finally the car stopped so Ross began to freaks out. If she didn’t hopped into the car in the first place she would not have been in this mes. They pulled her out of the car and throw her on a bed. They keep her as a servant and treated her badly.
Her parents began to get worried, so they went to the school themselves. There was no sign of ross so they called the cops. “Hello I would like to speak to the police,” Rosses mum asked. “Police speaking what is your problem?,” The police asked. “My daughter is missing and I can’t find her,”Ross mum awserd. “Where are you right now?,” The police reply. “I am at St Paris school,” She said. “Okay we're on our way,” They replied.
Well ross was torched by the 2 men. Finally the police arrived at the school and Ross mum told them everything.They sent search teams out to try to find Ross. But there was no sign whatsoever of her. 2 years later.
“Ross I’m going to the toilet don’t do anything tricky,” One of the men said. Ross ran straight to the door calling for help. “Help me I have been missing of 2 years but now I’m free,” She shouted. One man came running to the door. “Move back,” He said. The man throw a rock at the glass door and Ross ran out. “I am free I am finally free, thank you kind man for freeing me,” Ross shouted.
But the men came out with a gun and began shooting Ross but then the kind man jumped in front of her and said “Ran Ran for your live and never come back here, ever,” So Ross ran. Back to her house. Luckily the men did not follow her and Roses parents were still alive. They move to america so that they will be safe and they did not see the 2 men ever again. So remember people never talk to strangers again. The End

Kelly Tarlton
Have you been to Kelly Tarlton befor? We came to Kelly Tarlton to learn and the sea life and antarctica. Kelly Tarlton is underground. When you walk into one of the room the walls would move around so it made us very dizzy.
There was 2 species of penguins. The King Penguin and the Gentoo Penguins. We found out that King penguin are the second largest penguin in the world at about 11 to 16 kg and they eat small fish and squid. King Penguins hid from leopard seals and orcas. King Penguin look a lot similar to Emperor Penguins.
Gentoo penguins eat crustaceans such as krill, fish and squid. They hid from seal lions, leopard seals and orcas. There height is 51 and they are 90 cm!!!Gentoo Penguins look like adelie.
Then there was a challenge wait for us. There was a pot of ice water and the challenge was see if you can put your hand in the pot for at least 30 sec but I was able to last dubly that. Once I pulled my hand out, I couldn't feel it any more. It started to feel like it was gone but I managed.
Next there was a big female squad that was dead and some jelly fish in a tank.The squad was big and dried up but it was still cool. The jellyfish look funny the way it moved but it also looks cool. I would like to say thank you to Kelly Tarlton for giving us a chance to come and learn about the sea life, we all had a lot of fun. I hope we can go on another trip.
