The Friendly Eel

Once upon a time Mary-Ann and her brother Martin went to a little island named Mitiaro for a holiday and while they were over there they made friends with some of the locals. Mary heard that her friends and the rest of the village children were all gonna meet up and hang out at one of the island’s Cave pool’s named Vai Nauri. Mary wanted to go so she told her brother and he thought it sounded cool.So without their parents permission they sneaked off to go swimming with the local children.

This is Vai Nauri

 When they reached Vai Nauri they saw the local children and ran to them. But before anyone went swimming one of the locals said a prayer to bless the water and to make sure that they were all safe and when the last word was said which was “Amen” all the kids jumped into the water and some  even climbed up onto a cliff to jump off. Mary talked and swam with her friends while Martin had bombing competitions and went diving under the water to find rocks.

This is the island Mitiaro

  After awhile a lot of the kids had already gone home. Mary thought that it was time to go home too so she told her little brother Martin that they were going home because she knew that her parents would be worried. So off they went walking home but the thing was that they didn't know where they wore going until they had reached Te Roto Nui (The Big lake), home of the Eel’s.

On the ground near Mary’s foot slithered up a Eel, Mary screamed at the sight of this Eel but then remembered that the Eel’s on this island can talk so she asked the Eel “Hey do you know how we can get home?” The Eel replied “ Of Course just follow me” .  So Mary and her brother went into the water and held onto the Eel’s tail and off they went. The Eel swam them home just in time before their parents come back from feeding the pigs.

Mary and her brother got so worried their hearts were racing when their parents asked them what they had did that day . Mary-Ann said “just playing outside” But Martin and her both knew that was a lie. So the next day they told their parents what they actually did, the parents weren't happy that they lied and didn't ask for permission but they were happy that they were home safe and next time ask their parents first.

Mary-Anne and Martin left Mitiaro and will always remember the fun they had at Vai Nauri and the friendly Eel that helped them home.

“Kait are you ready” said Sam, Kaitlyn and Sam where two ordinary Teenagers. They were going on a camp in the Mountain river hills where they were going to hang out with their friends Molly and Patrick. So off they went by the time they had reached the forest night had already fallen so they quickly set up their tents and went to sleep.

The next day they all went swimming in one of the rivers near from where they had set up their stuff. At nighttime they all toasted marshmallows over their fire which they had made out of wood. While they toasted marshmallows they told scary stories and one of the stories Molly told was about a man who lived in the forest many years ago he was a serial killer murdering anyone who dares step foot in the forest. Kaitlyn got chills up her spine while Sam nearly fell asleep. After a while they all got tired and went to sleep but Kaitlyn was still shaken by the story and couldn’t go to sleep but eventually after a while she slowly dozed off to sleep.

 A Sunny day had come on by and the group thought of taking a hike through the forest when they had came back Kaitlyn soon realised she had left her watch in the forest. So she went out by herself to go and get it  from a distance she saw something glinting in the trees as she obliviously walked closer to it she saw a man standing holding her watch while behind him grew a slow and angry purple sky making him seem super scary. She asked the man “Excuse me is that my watch” He replied in his wretched old voice “This one ohh I think it might be” “Yes that one may I have it back please?” Said Kaitlyn in her tiny petite little voice. The man chucked it near her feet and when she bent down to pick it up he had disappeared.

She thought that he might have been the crazy serial killer but she never had the courage to ask. Now she will never know if that was him or not. Kaitlyn has never told anybody about that time from this day since.
