Creative writing: Mines
It had been  fight  only when on Saturday morning the war had stopped and the b from each one  elabor consume the road stretched enticingly in a gleam and glister of  horse sense and  gleaming ocean. Deep holes in which the men and women of war had hid in for protection from  gunfire and dropping bombs. It now laid silent sound of waves lapping the shore. I was el make up and old  fair to middling to be aloud out where always I  insufficiencyed to go with my friends.Sean, Nick and I stood in our sandals with our  eyeball gazing at this watery paradise when to my fury I realized that my  octad year old sister Sam had tagged along Go  forward I shouted You are not old enough to go out with meShe looked smug Dads gone into town and mum has  left-hand(a) us so you have to look after me rememberI glared at her and pulled a face of pure sisterly hatred  just now Sean shrugged and  utter, Are we going to the beach or what?To  pronounce the truth in the first place we were scared to go on th   e beach even before Sam had showed up in all of her curvaceous glory. It wasnt the  concomitant that the whole beach had signs around it saying, beware of mines  clutches out provided no one had exactly told us we werent aloud to go for a swim.In one way or another we did not want our parents to no that we had gone down to the beach for a swim  nevertheless it was the fact that there was no fence there to keep us out from the gorges archers of sand and miles of sea. I glanced at Sam again Go away I shoutedNeverWell dont blame me if you  commence hurtAfter that we all ran throw off our sandals and jumped into the cool  impudent sea. We surfed the  behemoth crashing waves out to sea  leaving Sam sitting  only when on the beach.We wondered around the rocky floor of the cliffs and rock pools. We climbed up the cliffs, leaving a trail of falling rocks and mud we dumped off of the cliffs in to the sea and through stones at pesky Seagulls, We  sit down in rock pools and ate stale bread and    drank bad water left over from the war.Sams  confused little face made us all feel a little bad  privileged.We dared each other to climb over the  more or less dangerous rocks and into  more or less of biggest rock pools that you could have ever seen. We also dared each other to look inside the pockets of the  deadened soldiers that lay scattered and dead all over the rocks from men desperately trying to climb the giant cliffs to safety. Soaked and covered with sand we began to head towards home.I than heard something that I will remember for the rest of my life I heard a giant explosion and me and my friends were knocked clean of are feet as we got up I felt a lot of pain I had bits of shrapnel shot into my legs and  blazon and stomach. Than Sean shouted wheres SamI dont  lie with I repliedShes your sister go and find herThan I heard her screaming for  facilitate. I was terrified I could not see anything there was too much smoke and  besprinkle from the explosion.Than I saw it a t   rail of blood in the sand and only   half(a) my sister Sam, laying there she had lost half of 1 leg and the whole of the other leg. She was screaming to me help help oh please helpI shouted for help and only Sean had  generate because Nick had ran home in pain from the bomb. When Sean came we  some(prenominal) had to pick her up Sean was also in a lot of pain from the mine Because he had broken his hand on the way down to the from the explosion we both pulled her up and carried her all the way home struggling trying to keep the blood from gushing from her legs.By this time she had fallen unconscious we didnt know if she was dead or not all that mattered to me was getting her to the hospital that had been  dance orchestra up during the war for injured soldiers. We finally got her there and there and the took her inside right away into another room we tried to follow but we were stopped and taken into an office to be treated ourselves.Than two hours after my dad showed up he was pale    and looked sick. He saw me and sat down and started to talk to me  Your sister was very badly injured in the explosion he said quietly I know, I saidWell she didnt make it she bleed to death in surgery He said very sadlyI want you to show me were it happened and tell me everything he said very sternlyMy mouth was dry I couldnt say a word I was to upset about the  handout of my sister I just said very gently okI took him down to the beach and showed him were it had happened and told him everything that we did that day leaving out some of the stuff that he would have told me off about like  playing with the left over guns.He saw the blood and one of her legs with half of the mine wedged into it. His face turned wight and turned away from it and started to walk home.
