‘’Mom! If we don’t hurry up, everyone will get there first and take all the Kooky Erasers!’’ Kayla yelled up the stairs.
‘’And?’’ Her mother said, clopping down the stairs in her high-heels.
‘’Everyone has them at school, and if I don’t, then I’ll be left out!’’ Kayla replied, opening the door. Suddenly her mother’s face turned serious.
‘’Oh, honey. If people are teasing you at school, you have to tell me.’’ She said, sweeping over and placing her hands on Kayla’s shoulders. Kayla squirmed. She hated when her mother got like this.
‘No-one is teasing me. I just know it’ll happen if we don’t go!’’ Kayla said. Her mother’s hands slid downwards and zipped up Kayla’s coat. Kayla ran out the door, while her mother searched for the keys. There was a jangle as her carefully painted nails brushed over them. She dug deeper, and produced them with a flourish. As soon as the beep of the car un-locking sounded, Kayla was in the car, buckling her seat belt, urging her mother to move faster.
The car ride there seemed to take hours for Kayla, when it was 15 minutes to the shopping center.
At the parking lot, the car had barley stopped before Kayla hopped out. She and her mother walked through the sliding doors into the warm air.
A smell of coffee and pizza floated in the air. Boxes were being hauled into shops. Kayla ran over to the 3rd escalator, going downwards. Her friend Casey had told her the directions. She went over them in her head.
3rd escalator down, 4 shops to the left and 2 shops up.
As she and her mother stepped off the escalator, Kayla was immediately worried. There was a long line stretching all the way there. She peered at the front of it, and sighed with relief. There was some rock legend signing CD’s in the rock store. She directed her mother 4 shops to the left, then 2 shops up, and the stationary store lay in front of them. Signs were on the door and window, presenting their Kooky Erasers stock. She ran into the store and scooped up a handful from the open barrels. She had a vanity set, a sports set, a smiley face set and a dog complete with a bone, a collar and a bowl. They were surprisingly cheap, 0.50 each, and she happily handed over her 2.00.
The next morning, as Kayla walked to her class, she wished she hadn’t asked her mother to take her to the store. Everyone probably had really cool Kooky Erasers, and would all laugh when she brought out her sets. In the class, the teacher was not there, so the children were talking loudly. Some looked worried, not taking out their pencil cases and chatting nervously.
Kayla went to her seat, brought out her pencil case and her Kooky Eraser sets.
Everyone looked at her.
‘Lucky!’ Some-one said. They all rushed over. Apparently all the parents of the children had not taken them to the store to buy Kooky Erasers. Kayla was the only one. Even Casey had forgotten to buy them. For that day, Kayla was the most popular girl in the class.

You know, weird things happen every day. But you don’t really know it. My name is Anna and my twin brother’s name is Arnau. We are a Catalan family. My brother is a very weird person. Everyday he does something very... weird. Before yesterday my brother was making a noise. “What are you doing?” I asked like always. “A...... surprise....” he answered. So I waited playing along... until I went to sleep. Early yesterday morning, I had heard a strange noise. I was scared. So I got out of my bed. Then I saw that my brother was awake!
“Get up , Arnau ! There is a noise and I-” I screamed
“Ssshhhhh ! You will wake up mum,” Arnau whispered “and I know what the noise is ... It’s the sur-... Don’t !” He had just said “Don’t!” when I fell in the closet. So he dived in to the closet to catch up. We fell down a deep hole..... until we Rose up.

I used to live in Barcelona, in the stinkiest apartment you could get. You could hear all sorts of noises there. It was a really polluted place. I hated it. Why couldn’t they do something about it? In the apartment we used to live we were supposed to recycle. The man who was supposed to do the recycling, was extremely lazy. So he didn’t do it. He just pretended to do it. He was also in charge of the doors and helping people to get in. The thing is, he didn’t. He just sat in a fancy expensive sofa drinking some weird drink with 5 sexy girls around him. Sometimes he isn’t even there. Sometimes he’s in the jacuzzi with 5 different sexy girls. After all that he get’s paid all the same. He gets about 1,000 euros per week. Introduction usually means “present yourself” but I am not going to tell you much because I’m running out of Paper. My name is Cuca and I am ten years old now. I’m a girl and I have long blond hair. I come from spain and catalan is my native language. My favorite colors are pink and green because they are “naturful”. I like mountains and I love hiking as well as exploring. I love animals and I’m vegetarian It’s kind of weird for me to tell you and I hope I’m not hurting anyones feelings, here but I hate selfish people.

And the story I am going to tell you know happened to me about four years ago.

Anna-Stella had bright blond hair, with bright eyes, and bright feelings. Her family was a very poor family, which lived in a very small house in Saas-Fee. They never knew from where they got their food, because it was her Dad’s secret which he never would tell anyone. However they knew that he got it somewhere in the woods in the mountains. One day he left normally at 5 o’clock and never ever came back... The family thought it was from the cause of the Dom monster. The Dom monster, as the villagers called him, some people thought he was only part of a legend. However, some people claimed that they had seen shadows of him in the woods. Others, claimed that they had actually SEEN him (nobody believed that). And of course there were some people that went hiking in the woods and never came back. So, there weren’t many people willing to climb the Dom.
