Moment In Time - Burma Trail.

                The Burma Trail

“Creek bleak Creek !” The cicadas creak. As I was blinded with the darkness of my blindfold I was walking through the Burma trail. Before I  knew it I bumped into a small sized? Medium sized? No, GIANT SIZED TREE! “ Wow great instructions… Not!,” I thought in my head.

“Right there is a big root in 3 steps “ Mr Otsubo explained. “ Ah ! “ I tripped ! “ Ow ! “

Oh no the pain ! I was afraid I couldn’t even finish the Burma trail and the others would have made it and not me ! So I had to make It! I pushed myself, I got up! And then I shouted “ LET'S DO THIS!” Almost there,  huff puff ! huff puff- Wait… I stopped motionless.. I opened up my red blindfold. Huh? I made It.

The log cabin

     The Log Cabin

One hot and sunny day I was about to begin my journey to get to a log cabin, past the Scary  forest. I got my gear and got ready to go ! The first thing I did before i went to the log cabin, I had to check for a first aid kit, because if I get hurt or bleed really badly on the way to the log cabin I would need plasters. I had a torch which Is also  helpful since night is going to fall soon. As I descend deeper into the path I see an ancient old stone! It had a really weird pattern on it like swirly? When I looked closer at the old ancient stone it started to glow weirdly ! When it glowed weirdly i jumped in fright as if i were on a trampoline jumping really high up into the sky. I quickly ran away from the old and ancient stone and just ignored it. As I was walking deeper into the dirt muddy path I noticed that the path behind me had gone foggy! I quickly grabbed the torch out of my bag as soon as possible. I tried to turn it on put it wouldn budge ! “Wait a minute”! I thought in my head. I think I'm in the Scary forest ! I looked around, and then I saw four glistened yellow eyes in the corner of a tree, it started getting closer and closer as I still held my torch. I quickly, at the speed of light grabbed my back and got my Map ! “I'm nearly there !” I screamed. When I shouted i thought i was mistaken for doing that. I looked at the pair of eyes again, this time they weren't there ! I saw the old cabin ! I quickly

ran to the cabin as fast as i could, I made my way to the door……...
