Skating on frozen water
Aroha’s hair was gleaming in the bright side lights of the ice. Her hair was neatly tied up in such a wonderful ponytail and as short as a frog leaping faithfully across the lily pads with a braid of a brown milky like color like chocolate ice cream melting down the edge of a cone layered in a soft gold buried deep down under the burning temperatures of the egyption desert sands. Her eyebrows thin like a pencil being squashed into an incinerator. Her eyes brown like chestnuts being stolen by furious and hungry squirrels. Her smile as white as snow falling down the side of a mountain being squashed under by boulders. Aroha’s cheeks were red like roses gleaming in the sun and Aroha had a rosy red coat and underneath a gothic,black Tutu that twirled whenever she spinned and Aroha ‘s skin was like toffee with skates that almost matched her Skin Tone as she danced across the ice.
It was a bright sunny day in the Horncastle Arena in New Zealand Christchurch and A sweet little girl named Aroha was about to compete in a skating competition. The competition was about to begin and Aroha felt nervous to compete as she held her Mums hand. Arohaś Mother Catherine held her hand tight and told Aroha she would be ok. Catherine let go of her daughters hand and helped her put on her snowy white ice skates. Aroha looked across at the other side of the Arena where Betrix was standing.Betrix was Aroha´s friend. Aroha felt happier than ever but soon felt sad to compete against her friend and didn´t know if she was going to win the competition or not. It was getting close to Aroha´s birthday and all Aroha´s birthday and all she wanted was a pair of skates so she could skate on land as well as on ice.
¨DING DONG , DING DONG¨boomed the bell of the Horncastle Arena stadium.
¨Hello everybody and welcome to the Horncastle Arena Stadium of Aotearoa¨. Aroha felt scared she had absolutely no idea how to ice skate. Uh oh! Aroha didn't want to tell her Mom that she didn't know how to SKATE! ¨First up¨,shouted the Director through his high tech microphone. Aroha had butterflies worse than ever she felt like she was about to cry. ¨Is . . . drum roll please¨.Pitter,Pat,Pitter,pat,pitter,pat !¨Is Aroha¨.
Aroha walked up to the center of Horncastle Arena with butterflies fluttering around inside her little stomach. Aroha skated graceful than ever across the slippery ice rink. She leaped through the air across the ice and landed in such a wonderful pirouette figerate after figerate until her turn was done and the crowd went wild then Betrix was announced. When Betrix had finished her turn the winner was Announced Aroha and there she was walking off with a case holding 10 Million dollars thinking of what to do with it.
Aroha handed Betrix the five million as they shared the money between them and knew that no one was a loser and everyone was a winner.

Hi Isla this is Maggie:
ReplyDeleteI really liked your character description on Aroha
I liked the bit where it says "Aroha's skin was like toffee with skates that almost matched her Skin Tone as she danced across the ice."
Maybe you could post a drawing too?
