Desert Island

On a sunny morning my friends Kaiden, Neo, our parents and myself set sail to adesert island on a big, modern boat.

         When we arrived I noticed that the island was rocky and sandy. We all took our stuff out of the boat and settled things down. After all that hard work, we went swimming. Neo, Kaden and I went underwater and saw lots of colourful fish.

         Afterswimming we told our parents to give us the permission to go on a little adventure. They agreed. We climbed a very long mountain and on our way we came

across a lot of exotic animals. When we reached the summit we were very exhausted, as it was a long trip.

         Then danger struck. We all heard something coming out of thebushes. We went to hide behind the bushes but then Kaiden tripped over something. Out of the blue a tiger appeared. It came out of the bushes and it tried to eat Kaden. I was scared to death but I plucked up courage as I wantedto save Kaiden at all costs. In the vicinity, there was a big pile of rocks and I started throwing them fiercely at the tiger. The tiger was badly hurt, so it ran away as fast as its legs could carry it.

We went back to where our parents were. We told them all the story. All agreed that I was the hero of the day!
