[VER] Engels, "Here goes nothing !"

Link naar dit bericht Geplaatst door de TopicStarter : 06-10-07 13:23

Heey allemaal ! Lachen
Ik zin in de 2de klas, Havo, en ben helemaal weg van Engels. Ik heb al veel extra opdrachten op school gehad omdat ik best goed in ben (al zeg ik het zelf Clown ) en heb ook al veel boeken gelezen. Dus ik werd langzaam steeds meer geinspireerd om een eigen verhaal te schrijven. Knipoog
Dit is het eerste verhaal wat ik schrijf, dus wees een beetje lief voor me oke ? Bloos

Het speelt zich af in de toekomst (2145 ;; Dus meer met machines en computers etc.) en gaat over een 15 jarig meisje die is achtergelaten op een kostschool op 5 jarige leeftijd door haar vader. Waarom lezen jullie later wel in het verhaal..
Haar vader heeft in al die jaren nog nooit gebeld, geschreven, of op bezoek geweest. Alle kinderen dachten al die tijd dat ze een wees was. Ondertussen heeft haar vader z'n leven weer opgepakt en is nu manager van het beste star-racer team ooit.
Lucy wil ondanks alles toch dolgraag terug naar haar vader en weer een gezin worden. Weg van de strengste kostschool die er is, weer een leven hebben ! Maar eerst moet ze zien te 'ontsnappen' uit dit oord..


Ik heb al 5 pagina's, maar hier laat ik nog enkel even de eerste zien.. Hoe vinden jullie het begin !? Ja
( De Alinea's staan niet zo netjes hier Nagelbijten / Gniffelen Maar in Word staat het wel netjes enz. )

Citaat:
A hopeful packet, or not ?
Wednesday 18 September 2145 ;; twenty-five minutes past eight in the morning.

The school bell was ringing, and all the children walked to some classrooms in school. A new day was started at the boarding school. Two boys were late, and were standing by their lockets. They were talking about football and more of that familiar boy subjects.
“Have you seen how David let the ball trough the goal yesterday ? He played awful ! I’ve never seen him so bad. He plays always..” – the other boy called Walter, interrupted him – “.. What is she sitting down there ? Has she been sitting there whole night ? “ He pointed at a girl who was sitting against the wall next to a phone. “ You mean Lucy ? Didn’t you hear ? It was her 15th birthday yesterday, and her father didn’t call her, again ! “ replied Casper. Walter closed his locker and looked up at Casper. “She has a dad ? I thought she was an orphan. What is she thinking ? If he never call, he never will..”
Lucy, who has listened to their conversation looked up, very angry and began to shout. “ Hey you ! I’m not deaf you know ! “ She stand up and swing with her arms in the air. She was very angry. The two boys shocked and began to runaway. Lucy goes on screaming. “That’s it. Just run, runaway you cowards ! I know you’re just jealous ! My dad is famous ! He’s the greatest race manager ever ! He’s just too..” Lucy came back normal again. She let a sighed and then she said : “..busy to give me a call.. that’s all..” She looked a little sad into the hall. Nobody was there anymore. The two boys were gone, and all the other pupils were in their classes. Once more she looked to the telephone right next to her. “It’s not his fault.” She whispered.
Suddenly another boy disappeared. He wanted to see a toilet, that was what Lucy thought. But he really came from downstairs. He had a packet in his right hand. “Hey Lucy ! Mr. Smith asked me if I could send you downstairs. You know that there’s a packet waiting for you there, don’t you ? But anyway, I must go now.. I’m already late for my lesson. Look alive ! “ Lucy couldn’t believe her own ears. What did he said ? A packet waiting on her downstairs, for her ? Maybe it was from her.. DAD !?“ YES!” she shouted and ran off the stairs. “I knew it ! What did I tell yeah ? I just knew it ! “

Full of hope she ran to the desk where Mr. Smith, an old, bald man who has working for more then forty years here at the boarding school. And now he’s almost seventy years old. A friendly man, who’s always in a good mood.
“Mr. Smith ! Mr. Smith ! I heard you have a packet for me ? I think it’s from my dad ! Huh.. ? Mr. Smith ? “ Mr. Smith was again, sleeping behind his desk. As always when he had nothing to do.
“ Hey, wake up Mr. Smith ! “ Slowly Mr. Smith woke up and looked into the eyes of a 15th year old girl with short, dark hair with a pretty face. “ Lucy ? Is that you ? I haven’t seen you for a while..”
“ I’m sorry Mr. Smith, but if there isn’t any packet for me at all, I don’t come to see you. “ answered Lucy. “But, anyway.. Do you have a packet for me from my dad ? It was my birthday yesterday, do you remember ? I think he has written a letter for me and maybe he has also a little present ! “
Mr. Smith stand up and searched in some letters on another desk behind him. “Yes, I have a packet for you. But I don’t think it’s from your dad. “ and he gave the packet to Lucy.
Lucy steered to the packed and looked a little sad. “You’re right.. it isn’t from my dad..But thanks anyway.” She said and walked away.

The first day at boarding school.. back into the past.b]
[b]Wednesday 18 September 2145 ;;
quarter to eleven at night

Lucy lays in her bed with her arms under her head. She was staring at the ceiling. She couldn’t sleep. She was thinking about a lot of things. Too many things she thought of. She thought of her first day here at the boarding school. “Daddy.. please, don’t leave me too daddy ! “ Lucy shacked her head. A flashback. Not again ! She didn’t want to think about it, but she couldn’t help it..

It was a rainy day when she was sitting next to her father in the car. Her little bag pack on the backseat, and staring to the rain outside the car. They were riding to a big, big building. Lucy looked afraid. She was only five when it happened. The building was surrounded by huge fences. It looked more on a prison than on a school. Her father, Don Wei, parked his car next to the building. “Come on Lucy..” he said with a sad face. “You know that I do this for you.”
An older woman with glasses, and an unpleasant appearance came out of the building. Behind her walked a man with an umbrella in his hand. “There is our new pupil ! Our little Lucy. Welcome to your new home. I’m sure you’re going to like it here. There are many of children from your age here.” Lucy was frightened. She wanted to stay with her father, she didn’t understood what was about to happen. The woman grasp Lucy’s arm and wanted to take her inside but Lucy screamed. “Daddy !? What’s happening ? What are they doing ? What do they want from me ? Where are you going daddy !? “ The little girl began to cry when she saw her father walking back to the car and didn’t looked back. “I’m sorry Lucy..But I cannot take care for you anymore. I’m too busy, and have many problems where I must take care of… You know that this is best for us both. Be nice to those people, okay ? “ And without one more word he left his daughter at the boarding school. “No daddy ! Please ! “ Tears were falling down from the little girl’s face. “Daddy..please, don’t leave me too daddy !”

Suddenly Lucy woke up. Tears were falling down her face because of her nightmare. She looked around her bedroom. Her eyes stopped by her clock.

Half past twelve.
“Only half past twelve at night ?” Lucy looked really tired. She had some sleep, but she couldn’t really rest. “It was just a nightmare from what happened ten years ago.“ she told to herself and tried to get back to sleep.

Math lesson
Friday 20 September 2145 ;; ten minutes past two in midday

Lucy was sitting in the classroom where she had a Math lesson. She was bored. The teacher was standing in front of the classroom. He was writing some math questions on the school board. All the pupils were listening to the teacher and tried to understand the questions that they have to answer after he was done with writing.
Lucy signed some things in her book. She wasn’t listening to the teacher.
She was thinking about her mother. She remembered the day when she died, before her own eyes. The day her life changed forever. She closed her eyes and dreamed about the time she was with her mother and father when she was young. They were happy together. Lucy wished she could go back in time. She wished that her mother was still alive. That there wasn’t an accident at all. That here father didn’t left her here at boarding school..

Suddenly she heard someone calling her name. Her dream goes on. She saw how her father woke her up at her fifth birthday. “Lucy, wake up..Lucy !? LUCY!!! “

Then she woke up. She was still sitting in the same classroom but all the children were laughing at her. What’s going on ? she thought. “LUCY WEI!” Lucy looked up and saw how the teacher was standing next to her table. “hm.. 548 ?” she answered. It was just a gamble. She didn’t even know what the question was. The children began to laugh only louder. Lucy turned red. “Well, Lucy Wei, if you are finished with day dreaming, you might learn something here. I don’t really think so.. but.. anyway ! “ The teacher turned around and pointed on another girl in the class. “Melody. Do you know the answer ? “ Melody, a long, slim girl with long blonde hair smiled. “Of course I know the answer !” was the girl’s answer. Lucy was angry. She knows everything.. She always get high notes and she always get compliments from teachers. Lucy hated that girl. She couldn’t even look at her without an angry face. She turned around in her chair and looked again in her book. “Mucilage ball, that’s what she is.. “ she whispered. Unfortunately, a little too loud. Some children looked at her and also the teacher turned around. “I’m sorry for you Lucy that Melody wants to do her best on school and you won’t ! You don’t have to be jealous at her because she is so smart ! And I don’t want you to say such things about Melody, such a nice girl ! Do you know what ? Go ! I don’t want you any longer in MY class ! “
Lucy stand up. “Alright alright alright ! I’m already gone !” she said angry and ran out of the classroom. With a slam she closed the door behind here.

“We’re just one big family !“
Friday 20 September 2145 ;; forty minutes to three in midday

Lucy was walking trough the boarding school. She has to visit the office of the headmistress of the school. Well, visit isn’t the right word. All because of Melody, again ! When it isn’t the fault of Melody that she has to go see Mrs. Anzac ? Well.. yeah.. You know probably know the right answer.
Lucy knocked first at the door from Mrs. Anzac’s office before she got in. “Yes ?” sound a voice from inside the office. Lucy slowly opened the door and showed her head.
“Hm.. It’s you again.” Mrs. Anzac said. “Come in, please close the door behind you.”
Lucy did was she was told to, and took a sit in one of the two chairs before the desk.
Mrs. Anzac let a deep sighed. “Okay, go on Miss Wei. What have you done this time ?”
Lucy looked to the ground. She couldn’t look the lady into her eyes. Not even right to her face. She was so.. so.. ugly. And she also would never forget the first time that she saw her. That look upon her face when she grabbed her arm when her father left her at the boarding school.
“Well Miss Wei ? I don’t have the whole day ! Spit it out !” said Mrs. Anzac angry. And when she was angry, you could better do what she said or else.. “I..I..I didn’t do anything wro..” – Mrs. Anzac interrupted her –“You DID something wrong Miss Wei. Don’t deny ! If you really didn’t something wrong, you wouldn’t sit here with me right now !”
Mrs. Anzac became mad. “Okay, okay ! It’s true ! I did something wrong ! I called Melody in the Math lesson a mucilage ball. I was dreaming in class and I didn’t wanted to listen to our teacher, Mr. Bolt, and I gave the wrong answer. But Melody knew the right answer, again, and I hate her !” Lucy freaked out. “Okay, I’ve heard enough for now.” Mrs. Anzac said and stand up.”This was REALLY the LAST time I’ve heard something bad about you. Alright ? One more time and I’ll send you to another boarding school. Far away from here, and more further away from your father.” Lucy shocked. What did she said ? To another boarding school ? NO WAY ! She stand up and tried to smile. “Thank you for your time Mrs. Anzac. I promise this was the last time. I really, really do ! “ And Lucy left the office from the strict headmistress.

Jups inderdaad. Lachen
Normaliter gaan topics wanneer ze niet aan die regel voldoen op slot. Je hebt het nu snel gecorrigeerd door meteen een extra stuk te plaatsen en bovendien waren er nog niet echte reacties. Ik heb je topic daarom open gelaten en even het toegevoegde stuk in de begin post geplaatst.

Vind het wel leuk, heb niet helemaal de tijd om alles te lezen, maar een leuk idee. Ben zelf ook weg van Engelse verhalen ed en vind het al heel knap hoe jij in 2 Havo dit even in elkaar zet, maar er zitten toch wat foutjes in die je er uit kunt halen, zoals met tegenwoordige tijd / verleden tijd. Andere dingen zijn voornamelijk schoonheidsfoutjes, dat is allemaal niet zo'n ramp. Maar gewoon doorgaan! Lachen

Bedankt voor je leuke reactie ! Haha!
Met de tegenwoordig/verleden tijd heb je helemaal gelijk in. Lachen Vanochtend heb ik alles nog een keer na gelopen, en zag in Word dat er idd nog wat inzaten. Dus die heb ik in Word verbeterd. En schoonheidsfoutjes, tja.. Soms vindt ik het nog wel eens irritant om de alinea's zo netjes te houden, komma's op de juiste plaatsen enz. en meer van dat soort dingen. Maar ik probeer er wel op te letten. Ja

Sorry allemaal, maar het duurde érg lang.
Wat problemen met een Word progamma.. Nagelbijten / Gniffelen Ik had enkel een proefversie van de allernieuwste hier op me laptop staan, en niet in de gaten dat er nog een soort echt standaard progamma erop stond.. dus nogal wat tijd verspild. Slapen

Ik ben alweer een stukje verder gegaan met het verhaal, maar heb ook nog veel dingen verbetered. Onregelmatige werkwoorden bijvoorbeeld, en ik heb ook dingen wat gewijzigd en toegevoegd. Dus hier een heel stuk opnieuw, én nieuw bij gevoegd. Knipoog

't kan zijn dat niet alle alinea's enz. even netjes staan. Ligt er maar net aan wat voor groote scherm je hebt.
In Word zelf staat het wel netjes.

A hopeful packet, or not?
Wednesday 18 September 2145 ;; twenty-five minutes past eight in the morning.

The school bell was ringing, and all the children walked to some classrooms in school. A new day was started at the boarding school. Two boys were late, and were standing by their lockets. They were talking about football and more of that familiar boy subjects.
“Have you seen how David let the ball trough the goal yesterday? He played awful! I’ve never seen him so bad. He plays always..” – the other boy called Walter, interrupted him – “.. What is she sitting down there? Has she been sitting there whole night?“ He pointed at a girl who was sitting against the wall next to a phone. Casper looked up to see which girl his friend was talking about. “You mean Lucy? Didn’t you hear? It was her 15th birthday yesterday, and her father didn’t call her, again!” replied Casper. Walter closed his locker and looked up at Casper. “She has a dad? I thought she was an orphan. What is she thinking? If he never call, he never will..”
Lucy, who had listened to their conversation looked up, very angry and began to shout. “Hey you! I’m not deaf you know!“ She stood up and began to swing loudly with her arms in the air. She was very angry. The two boys shocked and began to runaway.
Lucy went on screaming. “That’s it. Just run, runaway you cowards! I know you’re just jealous . My dad is famous! He’s the greatest race manager ever He’s just too..” Lucy came back normal again. She let a sighed and then she said : “..busy to give me a call.. that’s all..”

She looked a little sad into the hall. Nobody was there anymore. The two boys were gone, and all the other pupils were in their classes. Once more she looked to the telephone right next to her. “It’s not his fault.” She whispered.
Suddenly another boy disappeared. He wanted to see a toilet or something, that was what Lucy thought. But he really came from downstairs. He had a packet in his right hand. “Hey Lucy! Mr. Smith asked me if I could send you downstairs. You know that there’s a packet waiting for you there, don’t you? But anyway, I must go now. I’m already late for my lesson. Look alive!“ Lucy couldn’t believe her own ears. What did he said? A packet waiting on her downstairs, for her? Maybe it was from her.. DAD!?
“YES!” she shouted and ran off the stairs. “I knew it! What did I tell yeah? I just knew it!“

Full of hope she ran to the desk where Mr. Smith, an old, bald man who has working for more than forty years here at the boarding school. And now he’s almost seventy years old. A friendly man, who’s always in a good mood. “Mr. Smith! Mr. Smith! I heard you have a packet for me? I think it’s from my dad! Huh.. ? Mr. Smith?“ Mr. Smith was again, sleeping behind his desk. As always when he had nothing to do. “Hey, wake up Mr. Smith!“ Slowly Mr. Smith woke up and looked into the eyes of a 15th year old girl with short, dark hair and a pretty face. “Lucy? Is that you? I haven’t seen you for a while..”

“I’m sorry Mr. Smith, but if there isn’t any packet for me at all, I don’t come to see you.“ answered Lucy. “But, anyway.. Do you have a packet for me from my dad? It was my birthday yesterday, do you remember? I think he has written a letter for me and maybe he has also a little present!“
Mr. Smith stood up and searched in some letters on another desk behind him. “Yes, I have a packet for you. But I don’t think it’s from your dad.“ and he gave the packet to Lucy.
Lucy steered to the packed and looked a little sad. “You’re right.. it isn’t from my dad.. But thanks anyway.” She said and walked away.

The first day at boarding school.. back into the past.
Wednesday 18 September 2145 ;; quarter to eleven in the evening.

Lucy lay in her bed with her arms under her head. She was staring at the ceiling. She couldn’t sleep. She was thinking about a lot of things. Too many things she thought of. She thought of her first day here at the boarding school. “Daddy.. please, don’t leave me too daddy!“ Lucy shacked her head. A flashback. Not again! She didn’t want to think about it, but she couldn’t help it..

It was a rainy day when she was sitting next to her father in the car. Her little bag pack on the backseat, and staring to the rain outside the car. They were riding to a big, big building. Lucy looked afraid. She was only five when it happened. The building was surrounded by huge fences. It looked more on a prison than on a school. Her father, Don Wei, parked his car next to the building.
“Come on Lucy..” he said with a sad face. “You know that I do this for you.”
An older woman with glasses, and an unpleasant appearance came out of the building. Behind her walked a man with an umbrella in his hand. “There is our new pupil! Our little Lucy. Welcome to your new home. I’m sure you’re going to like it here. There are many of children from your age.” Lucy was frightened. She wanted to stay with her father, she didn’t understood what was about to happen. The woman grasp Lucy’s arm and wanted to take her inside but Lucy screamed. “Daddy!? What’s happening? What are they doing? What do they want from me? Where are you going daddy!?“ The little girl began to cry when she saw her father walking back to the car and didn’t look back. “I’m sorry Lucy.. But I cannot take care for you anymore. I’m too busy, and have many problems where I must take care of… You know that this is best for us both. Be nice to those people, okay?“ And without one more word he left his daughter at the boarding school. “No daddy! Please!“ Tears were falling down from the little girl’s face.
“Daddy.. please, don’t leave me too daddy!”




Suddenly Lucy woke up. Tears were falling down her face because of her nightmare. She looked around her bedroom. Her eyes stopped by her clock.

Half past twelve.

“Only half past twelve at night?” Lucy looked really tired. She had some sleep, but she couldn’t really rest. “It was just a nightmare from what happened ten years ago.“ she told to herself and turned around in her bed. Suddenly Lucy remembered something. She knew that there was something she hadn’t done today, and she should have..
Lucy doubted for a short time, and then she knew it. The packet! That’s it! She didn’t open the packet that Mr. Smith had given her.
Immediately she jumped out off her bed and almost slammed the doors open from her closet when she thought of it was still midnight. She had to be quite, or else she would wake up all the other students.
She searched for the packet, but that wasn’t easy. Her whole closet was one big mess! Here and there lay some shoes, jeans, sweaters and some other stuff, all above and trough each other. “And I always wondered why I cannot find things that I need, when I need it in a mess like this.” Lucy told herself and let a sighed when she still hadn’t found the packet. She looked around in her room am wondered where her packet was. It couldn’t be it was just gone, could it? Definitely not!
Lucy walked back to her bed when she closed her closet after searching and took a sit. Her arms crossed each other. She was a little angry at herself. She always forget where she has left her stuff, and most of the time she never finds it back. But now she was really, really sure she had left the packet here. Somewhere... Someplace…
“Oh no, not again! I have to find it! I just have to.” she told herself angry and stood up, and took a look under her bed. Finally, she found it. She tried to open the packet with her pen-knife and it worked. For a few seconds she steered to what was in the packet, but then she jumped off her bed from happiness. “Yes! The last part that I need for my rocket-seat!

She always get high notes and she always get compliments from teachers. And more from that thoughts were spinning around in her head that moment. Lucy hated that girl. She couldn’t even look at her without an angry face. She turned around in her chair and looked again in her book. “Mucilage ball, that’s what she is..“ she whispered. Unfortunately, a little too loud. Some children looked at her and also the teacher turned around.
“I’m sorry for you Lucy that Melody wants to do her best on school and you won’t! You don’t have to be jealous at her because she is so smart! And I don’t want you to say such things about Melody, such a nice girl. Do you know what? Go! I don’t want you any longer in MY class!“ Lucy stood up. “Alright alright alright! I’m already gone!” she said angry and ran out of the classroom. With a slam she closed the door behind her.

Friday 20 September 2145 ;; forty minutes to three in the afternoon.

Lucy was walking trough the boarding school. She had to visit the office of the headmistress of the school. Well, visit isn’t the right word. All because of Melody, again! When it isn’t the fault of Melody that she has to go see Mrs. Anzac? Well.. yeah.. You probably know the right answer.
Lucy knocked first at the door from Mrs. Anzac’s office before she got in. “Yes?” sound a voice from inside the office. Lucy slowly opened the door and showed her head.
“Hm.. It’s you again.” Mrs. Anzac said. “Come in, please close the door behind you.”
Lucy did was she was told to, and took a sit in one of the two chairs before the desk.
Mrs. Anzac let a deep sighed. “Okay, go on Miss Wei. What have you done this time?”
Lucy looked to the ground. She couldn’t look the lady into her eyes. Not even right to her face. She was so.. so.. ugly. And she would also never forget the first time that she saw her. That look upon her face when she grabbed her arm when her father left her at the boarding school.
“Well Miss Wei? I don’t have the whole day! Spit it out!” said Mrs. Anzac angry. And when she was angry, you could better do what she said or else.. Lucy tried to start..
“I..I..I didn’t do anything wro..” – But Mrs. Anzac interrupted her –“You DID something wrong Miss Wei. Don’t deny! If you really didn’t something wrong, you wouldn’t sit here with me right now!” Mrs. Anzac became mad. “Okay, okay! It’s true! I did something wrong! I called Melody in the Math lesson a mucilage ball. I was dreaming in class and I didn’t want to listen to our teacher, Mr. Bolt, and I gave the wrong answer. But Melody knew the right answer, again, and I hate her!” Lucy freaked out. “Okay, I’ve heard enough for now.” Mrs. Anzac said and stood up. ”This was REALLY the LAST time I’ve heard something bad about you. Alright? One more time and I’ll send you to another boarding school. Far away from here, and more further away from your father.” Lucy shocked. What did she said? To another boarding school? NO WAY! She stood up and tried to smile. “Thank you for your time Mrs. Anzac. I promise this was the last time. I really, really do!“ And Lucy left the office from the strict headmistress.

“We’re just one big family!“
Friday 20 September 2145 ;; three o’clock in the afternoon.

Lucy walked back to her own room. She turned on her TV and wanted to sit down on her bed, but she jumped immediately back on the ground. The programmer was about her father! It was an interview about the last race from his team that he managed. She set the sound louder so she could follow it better.
The interviewer asked Don Wei some questions about the race that he won. Actually, not he, but his Star-racer driver. A twenty-seven years old man with short black hair. Also there were some mechanics on the background. They were all part of the best race team on earth. Together they won the last Star-racer championship.
Lucy stared to the TV. Her eyes were big. Her ears were wide opened. She didn’t want to miss anything of this interview!

Interviewer man :
“Don Wei! First, I’d like to congratulate you and your team with this victory.“
Don Wei : “Thank you! Me, and my team appreciate that. How kind of you.” Interviewer man : “Are you and the rest of your team preparing for the next selections? You know that there is another important championship is coming nearby. If you can win that race, you won all the championships from the last seven years!”
Don Wei : “Yes, we’re already prepared for that. But I know that my team will win, also without more practicing. We’re just the best of all! You know that.“

The interviewer must laughed about that.
Lucy smiled. She already knew that her father has the best race team from the world. And that he is the best race manager in the world.
The interviewer continued :

Interviewer man : “Don Wei, may I ask you what your secret is? I mean, no one has made it this far in the world of star racing. What is your secret that your team is so good, and made it this far?”
Don Wei : “Of course you may ask me that, because there isn’t really a secret! Me and my team are just so connected with each other,, we just amazing partners! Or better, we’re just a short of a big family!”

“WHAT DID HE SAID!? “ screamed Lucy very, very angry. Her head turned completely red. “ONE BIG FAMILY!? IS HE FORGOTTEN THAT HE DESTROYED HIS FAMILY TEN YEARS AGO!? AND LEFT HIS DAUGTHER, ME, BEHIND AT A BOARDING SCHOOL!?“
Lucy freaked out. Second time today. From madness she throw the remote control from the TV trough the window. The window was totally broken. Lucy looked up and became back to normal. She cooled down. She shacked with her head. Her eyes were standing big when she saw the broken window.

Suddenly she heard a voice coming nearby. It came from outside her room. “LUCY!? What’s going there? Is everything alright?” It was one of the teacher from school.
“Shi…shii… oliebol!” whispered Lucy. Quickly she looked around her room. She saw the curtains. That’s it! She jumped on her bed and quickly she closed the curtains before the broken window so no one could see it was broken.
Then a teacher opened the door from her room. “What’s going on here?” she asked.
Lucy turned white. “Err,, there is.. there was.. there was an accident on the other side of the freeway!” She has to believe me.. next to the boarding school, almost next to my room there lies a freeway. “Are you sure Lucy?” asked the teacher. It looked like she didn’t believe Lucy, but when Lucy nodded her head, she smiled. “Fine then. I’m glad that there’s nothing wrong with you. I must go now, do you promise me you will stay on your room today? I heard you weren’t really brave in the Math lesson earlier today.”
“I promise.” Replied Lucy and the teacher went away. After Lucy was sure that the teacher was really gone, she sighed with a relief. “Phieuw.. Lucky me..”

Leuk verhaal! Vind het erg knap van je om op jouw leeftijd even een Engels verhaal in elkaar te zetten.
Heel goed!
Er zitten inderdaad een aantal (grammatica) foutjes in, maar het is niet heel storend.
Keep up the good work Lachen

The escape

Friday 20 September 2145 ;; three o’clock at night.

It was midnight when Lucy was packing. Yes, you heard it right. Packing! She had a plan to get away from the boarding school. And it has to happen right now, or else it would be too late to get away. Then they would probably found out the broken window, and Lucy should go to another boarding school. Far away from home. Home? Lucy was doubting. She didn’t even know where her father would live right now, or where he worked.. Lucy was now ready to go. Everything was packed. She could only take her little bag with her. She couldn’t take many stuff with her. Then it would be too heavy.
She smiled. She was ready for a whole new life, far away from this place!

So quiet as possible she climbed out the broken window. When she got out her hands were bleeding a little. The hole in the window was not so big, and it was quit sharp. “Aw.. that hurts.” She whispered when she looked to her hands. She stood up again and looked around. It was too dark to see much on a place like this. She searched in her bag for her pocket lamp she had brought with her. She turned it on. Now she could see a little light in the darkness of the night. So quite as she could be, Lucy walked to the big shed behind school. In her left hand she stood with her pocket lamp, and in her right hand she held a iron wire. She tried to open the shed-door with it. After some time trying, the door unlocked. “Yes. It works.” Lucy smiled. She opened the door and got in the shed. Walking trough the dark shed, Lucy felt kind of excitement. Her body was a little bit shaking. When she finally stood next to the rocket-seat, she asked herself if this was the right thing to do. Maybe, her father didn’t forget the birthday of his daughter, but just had no time to come at that day. Maybe, he would come in a couple of days, and finally take her back home and start a new life together.. Why would she run away? Lucy steered for a short time in the middle of nowhere when she asked herself that question, then shook her head and told herself that this was right to do. “Dad won’t come to me, so I’ll come to him.” she said and throw the cloth off the rocket-seat and started to fix the last part of the rocket-seat.
A couple of years ago, Lucy found an old and broken rocket-seat in this shed when she played ’hide-and-seek’ with her friends from here. That day she will never forget.
“The day that I found you, though little friend of mine?” she laughter when she went on fixing. “From that day, I knew I wanted to be just like mom. A star-racer driver. I knew it wouldn’t be easy to clean and fix you and practice on you so I could later climb in star-racer, but after al those years I did it.” she said with a satisfied look upon her face. “First, we have to find Dad when we’re outta here. Then I’ll see what I’m going to do with you. I think you would be useful to drive me to school and to friends. Yeah, you heard what I just said. School. But then closer to home and much more better than this stupid boarding-school.”
Finally, Lucy checked if everything sat right at the rocket-seat when she was done with fixing. “Yes. You’re ready to go!” she said excited.

Suddenly Lucy heard some noises coming nearby. She started shaking again and turned white. Maybe they’d found out that she wasn’t at her room. As fast as she could, she thought about a plan. She was ready to go, but If they’d find here right now, she would be in big trouble.
“I asked her if everything was right when I heard something at her room, and she said that everything was fine with her only an accident was happened on the freeway.”
Two teachers were walking trough the darkness with pocket lamps in their hands. They were looking for Lucy. “I’ve told you Miss. Grondale, never trust that girl! How could you believe her? And why in the name of God hasn’t Miss. Anzac send her to another boarding school when she said she would?” the man’s voice was filled with anger. “Hey, look there!” Miss. Grondale said and pointed at the shed.
The shed-door was still open. Lucy was forgotten to close it behind her.
“Oh, please! Don’t tell me you forgot to take that rocket-seat away! Now I know what she is..” - The sound of a starting rocket-seat interrupted the teacher, and not even one second later, the rocket-seat appeared out of the shed with Lucy on it. She turned on some buttons, and then the rocket-seat flew with a high speed over the huge wall from the school. “No! Stop her! Bring her back, just.. Just!!! Find her!!” The two teachers tried to ran after Lucy, but she was already gone.

Lucy followed the road with her rocket-seat that would lead her to the city. Once she looked back from her shoulder, and smiled. She did it. She was free now. Free, to start a whole new life! She turned around again and concentrated on the road in front of her.
After a long time of driving she stopped by an old gas-station. She had seen a man with his car standing by the station from the road, so she stopped to ask what’s the fastest way from her to find the city. Lucy stepped off her rocket-seat and walked to the man. “Err, sir.. Can you help me, please?” The man turned around and smiled when he saw her face. “Of course I will try to help you girl. What’s the problem?” The man seemed friendly, but Lucy knew you had to be careful if you speak to a stranger one the street. Certainly when you’re all alone. “Err, Can you please tell me what’s the fastest way to the city from her? I think I’m a little lost.. I mean, we’re just in the middle of the countryside.” In her hand Lucy held a map, but she couldn’t find the place where she was standing right now. The man walked to her and looked at the map too. For a second he thought, and then he explained Lucy how to go on. When he was almost ready with speaking, suddenly sirens sounded coming nearby. The man turned around to look. It was a police car. When he turned back to Lucy, she was gone. He looked confused. Why was she suddenly so fast gone? And without saying a word? He shook with his head and went on with what he was doing before Lucy came. Cleaning his car.

One girl, two personalities.
Saturday 21 September 2145 ;; ten o’clock in the morning.

Lucy drove trough the big city on her rocket-seat. She remembered how the man from yesterday explained her the way to it. Even when he didn’t tell everything because of the police-car. She had to ran away without saying the man goodbye, ’cause she didn’t know if the car was looking for her. And if it was, Lucy could be cached.
Lucy stopped by a big building. She put off her helm and looked to it. She saw her own reflection in it. She fixed her short hair a little and smiled to the big building. “Wei Racing” was written on it. “This must be the place.” she said and searched in her bag pack. She found an old picture from her and her dad. It was from her 5th birthday, made by a park close to home. She looked so much different then. Much younger, and just like a girl would look like. Now, she didn’t look like a girl with her dark clothes, short hair, and spikes in her ears. But she didn’t care. She was happy with it. She steered some time at the picture and then gave a kiss on it. “Daddy.” she whispered.
She started her rocket-seat again, and drove to the entry-gate from the building.

A man sat in a chair reading the newspaper when Lucy tried to get trough the gate.
“Hey, little girl. What do you think you’re doing!?” the man said from behind the paper when he’d seen her. Lucy looked up and walked to him. “There’s no problem sir, I’m going to visit my father. You know, I’m Don Wei’s daughter.” she said and pointed with one finger at herself. The man started to laugh. “That’s a good one! And believe me I‘ve heard everything! I don‘t have time to play games, now go on, get outta here!”
Lucy turned red from madness, but did what he told her to do. How could he!? She thought and jumped on her rocket-seat.
“Don Wei’s daughter! And I have to believe that…” the man said and turned back to his newspaper. Suddenly his newspaper moved a little though the wind, but he went on reading. He didn’t see it was Lucy. She’d started her rocket-seat and flew over the gate.
The sound of machines made Lucy’s curiosity only grow bigger. She walked along some big star-racers and steered at her own reflection. They were so big and beautiful she could see herself in them. She look satisfied.

“Hey you!” a familiar, but filled with anger voice sounded. Lucy looked up and saw it was her Dad. She turned to him, and was about to run from happiness to him, when he went on screaming. “What are you doing here Youngman?” He said and crossed his arms.
Lucy’s eyes stood big from perplexity and steered in the middle of nowhere for a while. Then she blinked a few times with her eyes and looked a little angry. “Do I look like a Youngman to you? Can’t you see I’m a girl!?” replied Lucy.
Don Wei pulled his eyebrows a little together and still looked angry. He didn’t seem to recognize his daughter, not even a little. “Oh, is that so? Well then you’ve got even less of a reason to be here..” - He pointed at her, and went on. - “This is not a shopping mall, you’re in the hanger of a star-racing team. Now leave before I kick you off this place myself!”
A sound of a broken star-racer sounded trough the hanger, followed by some smoke.
Lucy looked at the ground and nipped her fists together. “This is all one big mistake. My name is Lucy, I’m your daughter.. Huh?” Lucy looked up when she heard that her father walked away. He hadn’t listen to what she was saying to him. “You fools!” he said while he was walking to some mechanics. The star-racer next to them was broken. They looked confused. “Didn’t I tell you we need this star-racer fixed by tomorrow? It’s the Grandpre!”

Lucy looked a little disappointed.
A telephone was ringing. One of the mechanics took it. “Excuse me sir, it’s the head-mechanic. He can’t make it today.” He said when he was done talking.
“We’ll see about that!” Don Wei said angry and grabbed the phone out off the mechanic hands. “Are you crazy it’s the Grandpre! Does that mean anything to you?”
Lucy searched in her jeans pocket for her pocket-knife, and ran behind other star-racers to come by the broken one. The mechanics and her Dad didn’t see her.
“You got a day off last year, didn’t you!? -- What do you mean you’ve got twins!? I don’t care. I need you here now, and I mean RIGHT now! I’ve no replacement for you, and the star-racer doesn’t work..” Don Wei went on with his conversation while Lucy stood by the open star-racer. “It’s just need to take off this piece of junk and… voila!” she said and throw a small piece the star-racer over her shoulder. It landed before the feet from her Dad. He looked up from his conversation. “Hm? Hey! Have you lost your mind little girl!?” he shouted when he saw Lucy. Suddenly, the star-racer its motor started again.
“Sir! It’s working!” one of the mechanics said.
Don Wei returned to his conversation with the head-mechanic. “Guess what? You’re fired.”

Don Wei turned back to Lucy with his right hand on his right side. “Who are you?” he asked with a serious face to Lucy.
Lucy shocked for a moment then turned back to his face too. “Well uh, I’m..” she doubted. A short flashback ran trough her mind. She saw herself with her Dad when she was much younger. Hand in hand, and both smiling. She took a better look at him now. The only thing that she saw now, is a man with an angry face. He didn’t even look as her Dad. “I’m.. err..”
“Spit it out! We haven’t got all day.” Don Wei said with a strained face focused on her.
“I’m.. I’m..” More further than that she didn’t come. Lucy looked away from her Dad, and suddenly she saw a poster hanging on a wall. “Cathy Spring” was written on it.
Lucy looked back to her father and then smiled wide. “I’m Cathy!” she said.
The next moment, Lucy and Don Wei shook each others hands. “Cathy, you’ve got a job.” Don Wei said.
Lucy looked confused. She couldn’t believe her own eyes, her own ears, or herself.
“The hours are from eight a.m. to ten p.m. seven days a week with a half-hour break for lunch, but I don’t imagine you would have time for hunger.” He steered at her cloths. “And next time..” he went on. “I suggest you wear more suitable cloths.” he finished and walked away from her.
Lucy let a sigh when her father was gone. “Yeah, it was good to see you too..”
