At 4am on a Saturday morning when the earthquake struck. My mum was running down the hall “Saying earthquake.” All the books came down off my shelf. After the earthquake we had to clean up the house. My dogs barked because it was their first earthquake.
When the earthquake happened I ran to my dad. He said “Earthquake, earthquake” We ran down stairs. Mum said “Get under the table.” Mums vase smashed on the carpet. We slept under the table as an aftershock happened we jumped up and ran to doorways.
When the earthquake struck I knew straight away it was an earthquake (because of lots of dreams).Cocoa (cola) started meowing. I was surprised how the quake could get here! Afterwards we got dressed & filled up bottles of water. 5mins later BBC world news showed ChCh getting affected by the earthquake. So that was my […]

What’s going on? I awake from my soft cuddly burrow in my bed blankets. The room is dull and dark,and I can hear a faint rumbling sound. The gloomy sound starts to get louder Is it the mighty muscular wind that blows the chimes from side to side. The mighty sound is getting louder, until […]
