i have decided that i will choose jack and the beanstalk has my chossen fairy tall however from the viewpoint of the giant.i could use a modern theme as jacl could be seen has a teenager looking to cause trouble and rob the giant and the giant could be seen as an innocent person in this story.i will try and make it suitable for a teenage audience using grammer and humour to create this!

I have found these english lessons so far interesting and ive enjoyed learning about the different linguistic methods used withihn texts.ive found the course easy to agjust to and hope to make encourging progress after half term.

For this story i tried to make a lot of suspens to buld tension to keep the readers interested. As it is targeted at a younger age group keeping them interested would come by creating the tension therefore this is why i tried to focus on this.I also used different words for lexis to try and scare the younger aduiences and try and create an imagine in there head to make them use there imagination through out this piece of flash fiction that we will eneter for the holloween compettiton.

THE MAZE

It was October the 31^st .The clock hit ten and we had all been out causing trouble in the streets, many people were dressed in all sorts of gruesome out fits from the skeletons the zombies smuffered in rouge running thick blood and rotted old flesh. We gathered four of our boys and went down the alley that led to the maze we was ready to put these rumours to bed and prove everyone wrong! We got to the dark alley all four of us Perrier  down it nervously it was cold, dark and wet  down the alley with wind swirling at us from every direction smashing the old wonky trees among us  the nightmare had finally begun! we all turned back to try and make our way back home as this didn’t seem too good of an idea after all but as we spoke two massive old oak trees bent out of shape making horrendous screeching noises and slamming there blanches to seal our doom we all panicked and rushed towards the trees smashing the blanches with adrenaline and fighting for our lives to turn back, but as our energy slowly dropped we realised we couldn’t get round them as the only way we could get out was to go forward face the maze, whether we made it out alive would determine if we lived to see another day under the sun!

Me, Josh, mark and Scott was faced side by side with the giant 10ft green maze wall awaiting us, we entered the maze and heard screams from woman and men then the doors slammed and it all went silent followed by pitch black darkness. We had to move and at least progress forward but with every anxious footstep you could hear screeches along with the thick mug surrounding your foot like Parana’s over pray pulling us down slower and slower. After about an hour or going through mental pain living a nightmare we decided to sit down and take a rest, when suddenly! It hit us. Josh and Scott was missing we looked round left and right franticly hoping they would appear but nothing until we heard two massive screams for help! We ran in every direction possible but of course it was a maze and each path lead down a dead end until the screams slowly faded and eventually died out. They was gone the maze had them now.me and mark faced each over looking into each other’s eyes seeing the fear behind them when a noise so loud the vibrations of the sound waves severed through us it was like a boat horn had come off but then it was followed by a lot of rattling leafs, I turned round to see each angel of the maze getting closer and closer it was about to cave in a squash us! Me and mark both started to panic and try to escape from every angel but it was no good we had to face the fact we was going to die! when it stopped

THE MAZE

It was October the 31^st and it was the typical type of day as you could imagine everybody at school telling the daft stories about Halloween. Especially if you have mates like I do for example josh.Now josh is the type of mate that everyone has that constantly has seen or done something worst or better than anything you have done so you can only imagine the stories he was coming out with. How after discussing these stories we finally had to come up with something to do on Halloween after countless ideas my friends told me about this maze! Once the word was mentioned the whole room quiet and strangely looked over the where we was sitting. The maze was set up by a local lonely farmer who everyone had seen but heard of all sorts of stories surrounded him about how he used to let people stay round his farm as an overnight thing and they would never return and even the police was scared to question him or investigate as one officer went however never returned, so has it was Halloween we thought why not give this maze a visit after all what’s the worst that could happen it’s not like all this stuff was true was it?

The clock hit ten and we had all been out causing trouble in the streets, many people were dressed in all sorts of gruesome out fits from the skeletons the zombies smuffered in rouge running thick blood and rotted old flesh, we gathered four of our boys and went down the alley that led to the maze we was ready to put these rumours to bed and prove everyone wrong! We got the  dark alley all four of us Perrier  down it nervously it was cold, dark and wet down the alley with wind swirling at us from every direction smashing the old wonky trees among us  the nightmare had finally begun we all turned back to try and make our way back home as this didn’t seem too good of an idea after all but as we spoke two massive old oak trees bent out of shape making horrendous screeching noises and slamming there blanches to seal our doom we all panicked and rushed towards the trees smashing the blanches with adrenaline and fighting for our lives to turn back, but as our energy slowly dropped we realised we couldn’t get round them as the only way we could get out was to go forward face the maze and whether we made it out alive would determine if we lived to see another day under the sun!

Me, Josh, mark and Scott was faced side by side with the giant 10ft green maze wall awaiting us, we entered the maze and heard screams from woman and men then the doors slammed and from then on I can’t remember what happened I just remember waking in an ambulance however the others were never seen again and neither was the maze until the next year when the maze doors opened once again to reveal what really happened that night.
