Ok so im writing a story for school during the holidays i'm in grade 9 and my english teacher said it will keep us thinking for the 7 weeks we're off so in my story there's this girl, Ruby and her dad goes off to Afghanistan as an army officer but while hes there he and his mate which his son is Ruby's best friend are involved in a bombing are have to come home so Ruby's best friend Kyle his mum goes to darwin to pick them both up from the airport and Ruby's mum goes and meets them at the hospital so Ruby and Kyle stay with a family friend. They live on the outskirts of Brisbane and there are heaps of forests there. Kyle, Ruby the family friend,David and his wife, Rachael decide to go for a hike but Ruby and Kyle run off. They get stranded by the heavy rains and stay under some rocks but after the rain the go back to find David and Rachael. There was a little creek that they passed but when they get back to it its a raging river. Ruby has no fear and Jumps in Kyle get worried and follows her but Ruby get dragged under by a small salt water crocodile. Kyle tries to help her but the water is to murky to see. Before the croc does a death roll ruby digs her nails into its eyes and scratches frantically at them then open the flap in the back of the crocs mouth so it has to let go to breath. Ruby swims to the bank and the loss of blood makes her lose consciousness.
When she wake up Kyle is sitting next to her sobbing her leg is bandaged and she doesn't know where she is. When Kyle realises she woken up he quickly wipes his eyes and huggs her a girl comes out from behind a tree with some berries on bark she explains that she camps out i the forest all the time because her dad died in a car accident and he used to love the forest but now she's blocked off because of the river.....Any ideas on where to go now, what should I call it and What do you think???
Thx to all the answers!
