Here's today's story.
"Emily, how much farther is it?" I asked my sister one day when we were hiking to a picnic spot she wanted to go to.
"Not much farther, Opal!" Emily called back from her perch on one of the many dunes that surrounded us.
"Where is it?!" I questioned. All I saw were dunes. There wasn't any good picnic spots anywhere close to here. Or so I thought.
"Just over this dune!" Emily said. I started running up the sand hill that people called dunes.
"Oh! Is it that flat spot right there?" I asked Emily.
"Yeah, Opal. Isn't it so pretty?" Emily replied.
"Oh, yes it is! And in a few minutes, there'll be a magnificent sunset," I said.
Emily and I sat down after we spread out the picnic. Just then, from the direction of the bay, came three girls who looked quite weary.
"Who are they? They don't look familiar, and it's way to early for any new settlers. It looks like their even wearing trousers, but they clearly have long hair!" I asked my sister.
"I don't know, Opal. I know just as much as you do!" Emily said.
Soon the girls reached where we were having our picnic. "Who are you?" I asked them.
"I'm Hannah, this is Jessica, and this is Mia. They're my sisters," the oldest girl said.
"Hello. My name is Emily, and this is my younger sister, Opal," Emily introduced herself.
"Hi. Pleased to meet you," I said.
"You too," Hannah said.
"Hannah, I wanna go home! This isn't anywhere near our house, I'm sure of it!" Jessica whined.
"Yeah, Hannah, I want to go home!" Mia echoed her older sister.
It's "The Dunes"!! We should still do that, next summer. But I thought my name was Gwen and Jane's was Katie. Anyways, you should continue! Most of these stories you post would be even better if they were continued! Especially the Genevive one. Maybe I'll do Lady Fenton...
ReplyDeleteI didn't want it to be exactly like The Dunes, so I changed some of the names. It is the part that I wrote, though with some added onto it and some taken off. Some past girls aren't there. Violet and her older sister.
