The disappearing land

Speeding past the disappearing land I worry that I might vanish  into thin air. As I look back I can see millions of people old and young running towards me, with the same worried face as me . I don't know where to go? There is no sign of my mother anywhere, what do I do when I have no guidance? But I quickly focus back into running away from the disappearing land. Will I get out of this sticky situation or will I vanish never to see my family and friends? I am running past millions of doorways but one sticks out. It does not have a house. It is sitting right in the middle of the path I’m eager to go through the mysteries door. I look back to examine how much time I have to explore. If I be quick I have around ten minutes. I examine the weird looking door. Then I blinked, you might be thinking of course I would blink but after I lifted my eyelids I was not in a dark, gloomy city anymore, I was in a bright land with everybody smiling with their pearly white teeth. It was somehow getting kind of scary. Who knows maybe the door was planted there to make me come here but as I thought about it who would set a door right in the middle of a path, and why did none else go through it or even look at it. Maybe they were so concentrated on running they did not notice the door? Maybe this is where my mum is? I wonder if this wonderful and safe place is on the maps? This does have some advantages, now I don’t need to worry about having to disappear. I look around and suddenly I spot a lady with the same top my mum bought right before the land started to vanish! So I chased the young lady through the crowd of people blocking my way. But after a lot of running I finally caught up with her, as I approached her I said “miss could you please turn around” which I said in my softest voice. So she did and when she turned around fully I knew it was her, my mum. As soon as she saw me screamed of joy! We hugged , I wanted to ask her how she got here? Did she come the same way I did? But it was not the right moment so I did not ask. ( Three years later) now me and my mum live here where the land is not disappearing, and I still have not asked how she got here and I still will never ask her!

  1. Kia ora, Salamasina. Your sentence opener hooked me in and I was intrigued to learn more about the disappearing land.Your story is very though provoking, and has left me wondering about the mysterious door, and how your mother traveled between the two worlds.
    Teacher tip: You have added question marks to some of your questions within your story at the end. Well done. But, your character asked themselves a few questions in sentences 4 and 6 too which need some question marks.
