On the 27th of March 2008, the doors to a church slammed and 8 men held the coffin on their shoulder, and started to walk forward to the place where Crimson shall rest. Alexa came up to the stand to say a few words. “Crimson, I am gonna miss you, all the hairdresser games and conkers games we played, I hope that whoever did this knows that this is something that they will not get away with…”

They all gathered around to the area where they are going to bury Crimson. As they started to bury her, Alexa disappeared into thin air. Alexa actually saw someone watching and she thought that the murderer that killed her sister had been watching, so she ran deep, deep into the forest. After running for an hour she gave up, she just

bounced to the floor and started thinking. She was lost…

The sky turned black but cloudy, it started to rain, and Alexa was shivering like a boiled egg being boiled. Suddenly she remembered that she had her cell phone on her. She dialled the house phone but of course she forgotten that she hadn’t got any signal. So she just had to sit there minding her own business for the rest of the night.

The Sun shone in the sky and Alexa was picking coconuts of the trees. After she was satisfied, she decided to just walk in a front line.

3 hours later!                                                 

Suddenly Alexa recognised the street… It was her best friend Holly’s street. So she ran down as fast as she could and knocked on the door. Holly answered. “Hi Holly, I don’t suppose that I could come in for an hour could I?” “Of Course you can Alexa!” Greeted Holly. So

Alexa walked in, sat on the sofa and started to explain how she ended up at her friend’s house on a Friday evening. “Well, today was Crimson’s funeral and then I saw the murderer, well I think I saw the murderer so I chased him deep, deep into the woods, then I got lost and had to sleep on the mud for 1 whole night so I decided to keep walking then I found your house and now I am here now!” Shouted Alexa. “Ok, calm down take a deep breathe… ok… I will tell you what I will do… I will go and call you a cab and tell them to take you home straight away, ok?” said Holly. Before I even got a chance to say a word she just jumped up off the sofa and started to walk towards the kitchen. Meanwhile I started to lie down on the sofa and relax. Before she knew It I fell asleep. Holly came in saying that the cab will be here in 5 minutes but she saw that she was that tired that she cancelled the cab and put a blanket over her and then tip toed up the stairs to make sure that Alexa

would get a good night sleep. Secretly she stayed awake because she really wanted to just spend a few minutes thinking to herself because she missed her sister’s funeral and she was gutted. She just hopes that her sister can somehow forgive her because after all she was only trying to protect the rest of the people and the family. So she decided to catch a cab after all but instead of going straight home she just took the cab to the grave to go and see her sister. When she arrived there she noticed that everyone had left roses and daisy’s on the floor to show how sad they are for the fact that Crimson is dead. On the grave stone it said:

Crimson May Rose 27th of March 2008 till 12th November 2010 was a loving daughter, sister, niece, auntie. With love and missing you always! Forever in our hearts from Mom, Dad, Alexa, Holly!!

A tear rolled down her eye as she began to

feel light headed. So she rushed back to the

cab to catch her breathe back and then she realized that it was time to go home as she hasn’t been seen for 2 days and her parents are probably wondering where I am and I think that they especially need me after what they have been through in the last week. So
