Daily Writing- January 22, 2022

Writing Exercise

This exercise was an interesting one. Had to make a word bank. I used a word bank generator I found online and picked from the lists. It was fun. Then I had to write a scene. It said to add a word if you get stuck by using the list you made. I didn’t get stuck, I just used all 20 words. I changed them if they weren’t the right tense for the short story I wrote. It said to write a scene, but I wrote a short story.

Word bank- 20 words

Ducks, notice, daughter, uneven, bear, jagged, kittens, waiting, learned, sea horses, girl, dye, ancient, scattered, poison, roasted, pause, note, abandon, cave

My Writing

The girl stood in front of an abandoned cave. Her eyes slowly got used to the dim light as she peered inside. She paused for a moment before she took a step inside the cave. She noticed ancient drawing scattered on the surrounding walls. She sniffed the warm air and smelled roasted bear somewhere further in the damp cave. She doesn’t remember how she knew that smell, but she did.

The girl ran towards the smell, thinking it would help answer her question why she was in a cave, but nearly tripped and fell because of how uneven the cave floor was. She leaned at an early age that if the floor was uneven; she needed to slow down. The girl slowed down and saw the jagged rocks as they grew up out of ground. She screamed at the sight and hurried into a different room of the cave.

In this room, the girl saw a pool full of ducks. The ducks swam around in lazy circles, their quacks echoing through the cave. She looked around when she heard a different sound mixed with the quacking. She clapped her hands when she saw three kittens walked into the cave towards her. She knelt down and scratched each kitten behind the ear.

She stood up and gasped when a giant seahorse poked its head out of the pool. The ducks ignored the seahorse as it stared at the little girl. The girl walked over and pet the seahorse, wondering why there was a giant seahorse, ducks, and kittens in an abandoned cave.

In the distance, she hears voices and they sound familiar. She rushed towards the voices, leaving the strange creatures behind, even though she wanted to take a kitten with her. The girl got closer to the voices until she came to a giant screen. She stopped in font of it, waiting to see if the people who were talking will around the screen. A note appeared on the screen and she walked closer to read it, but everything was backward.

The screen flickered until a lady appeared on the screen, her blonde hair recently having a dye job done. Two men appeared next to the lady, one with a white coat on, and the other in slacks, nice shoes, and a blue sweater. The lady in the long sleeve blue shirt, jeans, and sneakers hugged the man in the sweater, tears streaming down her cheeks.

The man in the white coat was holding a folder in his hands. He opened the folder and sighed heavily. “The test results have come back. It seems someone gave your daughter poison. They placed it in her milk.”

The lady with dyed blonde hair let out a cry while the sweater man covered his mouth a hand.

“We don’t know if she will wake up from the coma. I am truly sorry,” the doctor said before he looked behind him.

The girl moved until she saw a bed with a body laying still on it. The girl strained to see until she saw the body was hers. Her parents were the lady and sweater man. And she remembered the nanny giving her the milk, the same milk that had tasted strangely, and must have had the poison in it.

“Mommy! Daddy! It was Nanny Travis that gave me the milk. She gave me the poison!” The girl pounded on the screen with her tiny fists, trying to get their attention. “It was Nanny Travis! It was Nanny Travis!” The more she hit the screen and screamed, the more the surrounding cave shook violently. The girl collapsed and kept muttering repeatedly, “The nanny did it.”

“Honey, did you hear that?”

“Sweety, what are you saying? The nanny did it?”

“Where is your nanny now?”

“She is working as a nanny with a friend of ours. They live three doors down from us.”

“Call the police before she poisons another child. Sweetheart, rest. You’ve beaten the poison, but you need to rest to get better.”

The girl sighed in her sleep, no longer in the strange cave. As she slept, she saw she was near the ocean where she could see the giant seahorse swimming among the waves, free. The kittens were jumping around in the sand while the ducks waddled towards her. She laid down on a comfortable chair lounge and rested, knowing that she was going to be okay now.
