“Ominous Oceans …Over…”
Sailor on the boat: “Pilot, huge wave coming, over.”
Pilot: “Be careful, go in opposite direction of the waves! Or if thrown into sea, lie on yer’ back and relax til’ me plane comes to get ya’. Remember, when in danger, talk inta’ yer’ receiver (walkie talkie) an’ tell me eh?”
The receiver made a crackling noise of water dripping forcefully from a shower which were made out and recognised by the pale and shaking pilot, Oliender. No one was answering and he was anxious to find out why, but words wouldn’t be freed from his mouth. To him, this meant danger, and really serious danger.He froze like an icicle glued to the floorboards. But finally, the words that were destined to cascade out of his blue-lipped mouth finally gushed out:
Pilot: “Are you there Barrian? Barrien? What’s happened?? Over.” But still, the unknown crunching noise was only to be heard. Oliender wasn’t the man to give up at a challenge, besides, he’d never given up any squabble for 32 years and wasn’t determined to end this battle easily…..
Sorry to end the story, but unfortunately the conclusion is not to be revealed for this is a post about something quite different:
During class times, we have been busy little bee-lings working our little minds and HEADS off, creating something “Extraordinary” for the Oceans project we are doing for this term. We had each, group or personally, chosen a topic to investigate and then we’d present it after learning some facts about it, in front of the huddled class nervously. We could present it in any way, so we were relieved.
My agents, Sharon and Momtahina are doing a case about “Whaling No Way!” which we learn about whaling. We’ve been studying and building with all the effort we can and have finally made a decision.Our presentation will be a satisfying Puppet show with a box for the stadium, decorated, and a whale coming to do an interview with a special Australian Comedian.
Then after this interview where the whale will talk about whale populations, whaling, how she feels, when it started, how sailors effect whales etc, a special billionare and significant person….. yes he IS A HUMAN……will be visiting to make fireworks of excitement explode up in the interview. But unexpectedly, a mysterious lady with a silly night gown and slippers come from out of the blue in a puff and respectful applause, to interrupt his conversation complaining that,” You haven’t finished your chores!!” and the poor man misses out while the woman takes over to talk about his progress in Stopping Whaling.
This passenger turned out to be his strict wife!! This puppet show will be amusing don’t worry. But I cannot reveal further, readers, you’ve yet to keep reading to find out EXACTLY what I’m talking about!! Sorry I am so mysterious these days…..
