Hi Nathan,
You can add them here in the weekly English comments section or email to the office if you would prefer! I’m looking forward to seeing it already π
Here’s my story.
King of the Skies
Once, there was a Commercial jet pilot named Jim, who flew people all over the world on holiday.
But then, a terrible virus spread across the world grounding all flights, putting Jim out of work and with no money to earn a living.
One day, Jim was out climbing at Mount Merapi in the Himalayas, when he rescued an injured Golden Eagle. It was magnificent in size with immeasurable golden wings that shone brightly in the sunlight. It was so stupendous that Jim stood awestruck looking at it.
Suddenly to Jimβs utter amazement the Eagle spoke…
βYou have rescued the King of the skies! Jim, I grant you one wish. When the sun sets in the East, climb to the top of Mount Merapi and shout out your hearts wish.β and with that the Eagle soared high into the sky and was gone.
Jim, climbed down from where he was and hurried back to his campsite, wondering what on earth had just happened.
What should I wish for Jim thought, there were so many things that I would like, a new car, a new house, money. But what to ask for?
He phoned his parents for advice.
βJim, you need to ask for something that will give you many happy memoriesβ
Jim thought about this, whatever could they mean by that?
Jim, paced and paced trying to think of something..
Suddenly, he stopped and smiled, but of course I know what I want he thought.
He rushed out of this tent, to climb Mount Merapi as the sun set.
The sun was just beginning to set, so it was time to speak again to the Golden Eagle..King of the Skies.
βWhat do you wish for Jim?β asked the Eagle in his rich golden voice.
βI wish that the virus would disappear forever and that I could have my very own airport with my private Learjet to fly myself and my parents around the world, staying in the very best hotels, creating many happy memories and the world rejoicing once more.
There was silence in the mountains, as the Eagle soared into the sky once more.
Jim, climbed down the mountain, to hear the astonishing news that the virus had gone and there waiting for him at the Himalayan airport was his very own Learjet, with his proud parents sitting in it waiting for him to fly them somewhere amazing to create those happy memories.
The End.
Nathan, this is a truly beautiful story!
It has nearly made me speechless this Friday morning- but not quite! I think that your story structure is clear, the sequence of events is engaging and your sentence structure and punctuation are impressively accurate. I enjoyed how you used your own interests and The Firework Maker’s Daughter to inspire you. I can see how hard you are worked to craft, draft and publish this piece. You are a credit!
Perhaps even more importantly, your story took me to a different world. It made my heart swell when I read it! Well done Nathan! π
