My Australian Story
It was two years ago, I had just landed in Cairns with my best friend. We decided to see the Great Barrier Reef and then cage dive the other day. I was really tired and it was very late. When we arrived, I saw a little thing shining in the middle of the sea not too far away. I tried to explain it to my friend but she told me there was nothing there, I thought it was a hallucination because I was really tired so we went back to the hotel. The other day, after breakfast, we went back to the Great Barrier Reef to cage dive. I tried to spot the little shining thing again but it had disappeared. Suddenly, I saw a shining object near the shore and I picked it up, it was a little rock but it was shining, a lot. I heard my friend searching for me, she had been waiting for me for about fifteen minutes. We were in separate cages, the employees were doing anything to make sharks come near us, but they didn’t .We were getting pulled back to the surface but suddenly my cage fell a couple of meters down and kept going. I was really scared, it was my biggest fear. I fainted. A couple of minutes later I opened my eyes, I wasn’t in the water, I was in a car, in a taxi! I was sleeping then my friend woke me up. She told me I had been sleeping the whole time. We were going through woods, they seemed a little familiar but it was the first time I had been to Australia. The driver seemed familiar too, I thought it was just a coincidence then the car stopped, we were at the Great Barrier Reef. I was shocked, I checked for the shining rock but it wasn’t near the shore, it was in my pocket. It wasn’t shining anymore, I didn’t tell my friend, I thought she would think it was stupid.

I was sure  I had traveled in time...

A Halloween story by Sara al Hineidi  5 A It was the night of Halloween. I went into my grandma's attic, where I saw a big chest. When I opened it, I felt something touch my shoulder. I screamed! I was scared. Suddenly, smoke appeared, it frightened me! I tried to leave quickly but the door was locked!  So I tried to calm down and five minutes later, I began to take a look at what was around me  in the attic. I saw a lot of things but the object that caught my attention was my grandmother’s bracelet...  When I touched it, the smoke progressively disappeared. And when I started to see better, I saw a spirit! It was my grandfather’s!  He said to me : "Don't panic, I won’t hurt you. I am just a ghost so I can't catch things. And now, don't tell anyone that you saw me, OK ? Good, now you can leave the attic. Goodbye." I said goodbye to my grandpa and I left the attic. It was incredible to know that he was still alive !

A scary story, by Ada C.

A Scary Story It was on a very cold friday night that this all happened. I went to the basement to take our costumes for the play we’ve been preparing for months.  It was in less than a week now! We were so hyped! I volunteered to stay after school by myself in order to finish our costumes and for that I had to go grab the old costumes to renovate them, from the basement. Since it was in winter the sun was setting early but it was still up when I went down there. There were two small windows that made me able to see what I was doing, I didn’t need artificial light. I looked around for awhile, took everything I Nneeded and went in the halway. I was listening to music on my phone and it was getting dark. At the moment I arrived in front of the door that leads to the staircase, I felt that something was off but I didn’t really think much about it at the moment. I tried opening the door but it wouldn’t open, I tried and tried again, I didn’t know what to do. Suddenly I remembered th
