My homework story so far

I walk up in a line to the execution block, I hear man by man getting decapitated I take two steps as each person has his turn I look at the ground for I don’t want to look at the blood and gore of good people who are fighting to take back their home. My father is right in front of me and as the english carry the corpses into a pile the general demands my dads turn, as he slowly walks to the chopping block I quietly mutter “goodbye father”.


The Executioner raises his axe and just as I close my eyes I hear an explosion “WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT!” shouts the general the explosion repeats again the sound came from the left as I look I see the wooden barricades in flames, I look above that position and see a flaming ball of fire coming my way it gets closer to the ground and I start running the flaming ball hits the ground and makes a huge explosion I white out for a few seconds and look up looking at my father above me desperately trying to get me up as he see’s my eyes moving he shouts “SON THANK GOD YOU’RE ALIVE COME ON WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!”.


As my father helps me up we start running to the nearest exit, but I fall over and feel unrelenting pain on my stomach “dammit we don’t have time for this son come on we don’t have time for this!!!” “My stomach” i say in pain “let me take a look” I take off my hand off the bleeding for him to take a look “dammit! grab my hand son we have to get you out of here!” I put my arm around my father's neck and he carries me towards the keep underground we get to the keep my father opens the door and locks it behind him.


My father opens a chest and gets out a piece of material and unwraps it. “here son this should have to do for now he says wrapping the material around my body. “Come on son it looks like theres a way out here he says as he picks me up and carries me through the hallway. We get to a dead end “”dammit a dead end!” “wait father the stone looks loose” I say quietly in pain “you're right let me see if I could open it, son try to stand still” he says letting me go I balance enough to stand still as my father kicks the stone down “ah there we go, here” he says raising his hand to carry me again “why would they attack if they knew there was an execution” i say “I don’t know hear footsteps coming from the other side of the room father gets up and grabs a sword from the weapon rack “who’s there” he says raising his sword, we see the general and two soldiers beside him  “well well well if it isn’t one of little prisoners huh?” says the general “oh i was mistaken we have two of them” he says again “what do you want from us!?” says father raising his voice “what else would I want? to kill you of course! your army isn’t going to save you from execution you were supposed to die and you will the both of you, right now, right here” he says raising his sword, get the wounded one boys i’ll take care of this one.


I quickly get up but I fall down again the soldiers grab me on the arms and picks me up and faces me towards my father for his death. “Any last words Prisoner?” the general says “go to hell” says my father starting to swing his sword the general raises his and disarms him and slashes him on the shoulder “ARGH” my father screams in pain “I gave you a chance your lucky i’m giving you a second one” the general says my father mutters “well speak up!” says the general “son you need to get out of here find Natouronte he’ll help you, stop this war and take back our home for me son, I love you” my father says in a french accent “as for you GENERAL you will lose the war my son will avenge my death you just wait”. The general stabs him in the head and sheathes his sword ‘FATHER!!!” I shout “now for you, boy” “I throw the soldiers off of me and slash my sword at them and fall down “look what you did boy you killed my men and you wasted your fathers last words, your worthless” he says ripping my bandage off My wound bleeds out “ARGH” I shout the general puts his face close to mine “you will fall you and all of your worthless army you will all lose” I hear an explosion sound and as the general runs off I shout out “I WILL find you and I WILL kill you, you’ll pay for this you hear me old man!” I try to get up but I just fall down again  “even if i die today they  will take back our home, you’ll see” I mutter quietly while holding my wound and black out.

“Wake up come on get up!” my eyes open I and feel my body is on a soft bed “wha, where am i?” I say “don’t worry you're alright you're all better” the man above me says “I’m doctor Absolon” “please to meet you doc” I say looking down at my stomach “its gone, my wound is gone” “this man found you in the english base inside the keep” Absolon points me too a man sitting in the corner the man gets up and walks towards me “Iwe are so sorry, we didn’t know you were getting executed if we did know we would have rescued you in the first place” “i'm afraid that wouldn’t be enough” I say quietly looking down at the floor “what do you mean?” I look up at look in his eyes anf mutter “my father is dead, I lost him to General Victor but he cowered away and left me for dead, I guess thats where you found me bleeding against the wall?” “my god, Im so sorry… I knew your father… he was a good man a good fighter” I close my eyes halfway at him and drop myself off the bed and lean against its side and start talking “well perhaps you could have made sure before you sack the place, you could have found out about the executions!, you COULD have ran in and saved us and killed the soldiers... there wasn’t much of them, it could have been better than blowing the damn place and killing half your own men!.... sorry I just…” “you miss your father?” the man says  “he wouldn’t have been my father if I don’t miss him” i say looking down at the floor again

History of Mexico City

Today and yesterday at LTL I read about the history of Mexico City. A long time ago the race who founded the city were called the Aztecs. They originally built the city on an island in the middle of the lake. The builders wanted to build it there because if anyone invades their town they could get enough time to get ready for battle. Before the spanish took over the city the Aztecs built beautiful stone buildings such as temples, government offices, palaces, and their streets were very organised. Before the Spanish took over the city the Aztecs was a very successful empire they conquered three neighbouring countries. The Aztecs did not rely on other countries for food and resources so they built a irrigation system which is a planting system and a watering system on the lake and the city was not polluted at all.  This was all until a bad person named Hernan Cortes decided to take over the city and claim it as his own then he brought his Spanish army to take over the city. Unfortunately they won so they polluted and destroyed the first Mexico City and replaced the Aztec buildings with Spanish buildings. Eventually the Aztecs died off by the deseases the Spanish brought over such as measles. Now Mexico city is one of the most polluted and dirty citys in the world.

Energy saving homework

When we moved to kowhi street we basically straight away brought energy saving light bulbs and put them into the light bulb sockets in the ceiling in some the rooms. We also saved up heat wich we have a fire in the office/lounge and stopped using heaters. And finally we brought a different meter for the hot water, wich means our water only heats at night time now.

LTL S.C.U.B.A

This week in LTL I read a book called S.C.U.B.A underwater diving invention.
It told me who invented the SCUBA diving suit. The person who invented it was Jacques (pronounced Jack)  Cousteau who was a famous diver. The problem was when he invented it World War 2 was going on and the Nazi's were controlling France and they could have used it for the war and make it bombs underwater, so he had to invent it in secret. SCUBA stands for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatis. I enjoyed reading this book because it told me a lot about history and I really enjoy learning about history.

Why was the Rimu tree most important to the maori’s? They used the wood for weapons like spears and knives and used the leaves for medicine for healing.
Why is the tree the best tree in the school? Because apparently we are one of the best houses

My book Review

Elephants trunk

This was not a whole book but something I read in LTL 
The elephants trunk can submerge underwater when the elephant is in the water. He uses it as a snorkel.  Because the elephants neck is so short he needs it to pick fruits from trees and pick things up from the ground with his trunk. It is also very sensitive. It can smell scents from far away, and it is very strong since it can dig holes in the ground and can fight during mating season. I like learning about animals because they are awesome check out WWF together.com
