Girlfriend gone mad
It was a loud and exciting day at my “ordinary” high school. The bell rings everyone running around frantically thudding searching for their friends. As I sit and observe the obnoxious crowd surrounding me I start wondering why everybody is so ridiculously crazy about the upcoming party which the popular girl is throwing this weekend. “Ahhh '' I screech as my best friend Reyah approached me in delight. ‘Where have you been’ I quietly exclaim as I continue to smell and eat the nauseating food from the school cafeteria insight of the “cool kids” across from me making a pig of themselves when she replies with ‘I was just talking to Cheryl and Marly about Charlies party this saturday’ as I roll my eyes at the unpleasant thought that even my best friend was considering going I had to at least act like I was interested as I didn't want to sound pitiful. While Reyah and I amble around I feel a big warm breeze of people rushing past us as the bell rings to go to fifth period. We then go to our separate classes to finally get the day over and done with.
The next day the weather was very cloudy with the rain roaring angrily. It was also the day of the party which the whole school was invited to which gave me no choice as all of my friends wanted me to go. So I arise from my bed when Reyah knocks on my door so that we can get ready. It finally hits 7:30pm and we begin to get ready. I change into my black and white knee length flowy dress and start to curl my hair while Reyah gets changed into her black flowy silk knee length dress and finished off getting ready.
We later then arrived at the party and the tall three story house was full of teenagers with an alcoholic beverage in one hand and most with some type of smoke in the other. We carry on with our night when suddenly I hear a ‘Crash’ sound silenced out by the late 2000s music playing in the distance. Me being the courteous person I wander towards where I heard the sound and slowly begin to get closer as I start to hear arguing and from what I could hear it sounded like it was Charlie (popular girl) and her boyfriend. I get closer and closer while as I walk down her long dark hall followed by a set of stairs into a dark room to where I could nearly clearly understand what they were arguing about which seemed to be some kind of disagreement, I slowly peek behind the curtain when suddenly I find myself in dead shock at the sight that my eyes had just absorbed. I couldn't believe it. As I continue to watch in disbelief I see Charlie slowly drop her gun as it hits the ground it makes a clack sound as she then begins rolling her boyfriend in a mat on the floor of which as I observed seemed to be a wine cellar.
I continued to stay quiet because I had no clue what to do or who to tell. I slowly follow behind her praying that she doesn't see me because who knows what would happen to me if she knew what I had seen. She begins to drag the mat over to a slightly deformed wall when she lifts a shelf and for me to see a hidden door which soon opens up to another staircase which I believe as I slowly walk up leads to the outside of the house which is surrounded by trees and broken branches. While I creep behind her I start to hesitate and argue with myself because not knowing whether or not I should have been following her or if I should just call the police.
I slowly start to walk back to the party before I stumbled and fall straight on my face Crunch after tripping up on a pile of stones and sticks as I hit the ground I start to panic and begin to run as fast as I can as she yells “HEY YOU COME BACK HERE” she starts to fire her gun at me I quickly stand up put my hood on as I begin to taste blood on the back of my tongue as I continue to run trying my hardest to dodge the bullets which were coming at me like little rockets flying through the sky. After I get back to the party sooner then later I get in the car and leave as fast as possible.
I arrive home terrified and sit silently not knowing what just went on but still thinking about what had just happened and for some odd reason I couldn't stop asking myself if he was the only one. I started thinking about what to do over and over again but only one thought came to mind and that thought wouldn’t leave so I trusted my gut and waited for the next night to come.
Later the next night I quietly snuck out got in my car and drove to the forest which is on the opposite side of Charlie’s house. I get out of my car with my phone and my flashlight and gradually make my way to where we were last night. I soon found myself being very uncertain about what I was doing and getting myself into but carried on walking.
I soon started to recognise my whereabouts and had to be very cautious about where I was walking in case I came across anything unusual. When suddenly I did. I walk closer and closer to what I believe was a hole and put my torch close to it when I start to hear sticks breaking in under me so as quickly as I could I jumped up and unhesitantly I begin to unravel the sticks and stones beneath me to find the rug I had seen the night of the party. I jump to my feet, grab my cell phone and call the police.

Mount Ruapehu
~How do volcanoes form~
Volcanoes form when magma from the earths upper mantle works its way up to the surface, it erupts to form lava flow and ash deposits and over time the volcanoes eruption will begin to get bigger and bigger and eventually calm down.
~My volcano~
The name of the volcano i will be researching is called Mount Ruapehu, this volcano is one of the more active volcanoes in the Taupo Volcanic District in New Zealand. It has been erupting regularly since 1996 but the most recent major eruption was in 1995-1996 and affected 100.000 people in the central north island. The 1996 eruption produced at least seven million tonnes of ash and 2.3 million falling on Lake Taupo, drinking water contamination had a big impact on the people and animals which lived on the countryside as it blocked alot of the water ways and as well as metal structures and vehicles were affected by the ash.
~Stories~
This link is a story on how Mount Ruapehu had Taranaki and Tongariro fight over her and Taranaki ended up loosing and having to move away. This is
In science today we erupted our volcanoes which we have been working on for a few weeks as you can see above is the volcano i was researching but as we had to get into groups my group and I decided to create and erupt the volcano that presayus researched named Mount Etna.
For this experiment we had to use 4 spatulas of potassium iodide in 20ml of water which speeds reaction up and 35% hydrogen peroxide, dish washing liquid and food coloring.
This is the end result of our volcano.
This is a video of our eruptions.
