My Superhero Story

One beautiful day in Japan of the year 2017 there was a brave and smart man by the name of "Jack". This man was the protector of the world and nearly the universe! Jack was a Japanese Ninja Soldier that was kidnapped by a Russian military base. He was locked in a indestructible jail cell. The reason why he was there because it had to do with his superhuman powers. His powers were that he had a ice heart and that he could send ice shooting from his hands and mouth. His brother wanted to do experiments on him to make Jack one of his soldiers. Then one day when a guard came to give him some food Jack had been hiding underneath his bed, and the guard shouted out to him looking for him, He jumped out and quietly knocked out the guard.

He the grabbed a key from the guards pocket then quickly opened the cell door. He was so happy to be free not thinking twice about the other guards in the military base. So then he planed on how he was going to take out the guards. When he finished he put on the guards amour and suddenly found himself with a full loaded carbine assault riffle in his hands. He was astonished that he hadn't held a gun in years. He stopped thinking about the gun and quickly ran out like a quiet mouse. When he got outside he was frustrated at all of the guards with there guns. Then he remembered what his master years ago taught him about sneaking around enemies and how to stay hidden. Freezer use what he was taught and sneaked pass the guards like he was a ghost.

Then when he knew he was free he looked at the sun shining in the sky and felt like h could do anything now he was free but the thing was that he was in the middle of nowhere. So the first thing he did was travel to the nearest building. While walking for about 5 miles he finally caught sight of a house that was about another mile away so then he carried on until he finally got to the house and was exhausted. A farmer was  on his quad bike rounding up the farm animals with his dog. Then Freezer yelled out to the farmer to come to him. "Hi, My name in Alfred," said the man. "Hi, do you know where I am," Jack replied. "Your in Moscow of course, the farmer said in a weird Russian ax-cent. You don't look like your from around here, Where are you from young man?" carried on the farmer. "I'm from Japan," He said. "You know around here Japanese men are not very safe, do you," whispered the farmer. "No I don't," Jack replied once more.

Then Jack asked if he could use their phone. The first person he call was his best friend that lived in his house. "Its me," Jack said. "yes what do you want Jack," his best friend replied. "I Need my equipment." "Yeah its still here." "I'm coming to get it." "Sure." Then Jack asked the farmer if he could borrow his truck. Jack got in and raced all the way to the airport where there was a private plane waiting for him. Jack got confused because he never wanted a private plane. The pilot greeted him in Japanese and started the plane for take off. "Here we go to Japan," said the pilot.

On the plane a lady came from the back of the plane and served Jack with a glass of wine. "Greetings sir here is your wine," said the lady politely. "Thank you." The trip was long but it was worth getting away from his brother. Meanwhile his brother had  walked down the the cell where Jack was. When he saw that he was gone he yelled immediately. " GUARDS, GET HERE NOW! Said Jack's Brother furiously. You are gonna find my brother and kill him."  "But boss we need him," said one of the guards. "I don't care about that anymore, all I want is him dead!" When Jack's plane arrived in Japan his best friend was waiting for him. Jack got in the car with his best friend and they went to the house. Jack went in to the house and headed straight for the kitchen. Then he opened the pantry and pushed a button that was underneath the bottom shelf.

Then suddenly the pantry slid to the side and a stair case opened up. Jack walked in side and flicked a switch. lots of lights turned on and there were three rooms. The first room had lots of amour suites. In the second room there was lots of weapons and gadgets, and in the last room there were computers with maps on them. It was sort of like the bat cave but it wasn't. Jack went into the first room and started putting on a ninja suite with a mask. Then he when into the second room and started putting weapons like blades and throwing knives in his pockets. Finally in the last room he grabbed a little USB from his pocket and plugged it in the the computer. A video popped up of his brother talking to his partner. They were talking about how they were going to shoot a bomb as big as a house into the sky full of acid and is going to blow each country one by one. Then him and his partner are going to conquer the world. Jack ran out of the house and went back to the airport to go back to Moscow where the military base was.

When jack got there he planted five explosives on the front gate because the gate was five times thick as a wall. Then he hid behind a post and set the bomb off. The Gate burst into pieces and  entered the base with smoke every where. Jack saw his evil brother standing on the top floor through the window with his partner. Jack tried to get to them but guards were pointing their guns at him so he took blades in his hands and threw them in to each guards throat and walked passed them as they fell in death. Along the way he killed a few more guards and then he finally reached the main room where his brother and partner was.

Jack ran straight to his brother not see that there was a force field that send him flying back. He got up and took his blade out and tried to slice through the force field but it didn't help. His evil brother called some more guards as they ran of to am armored truck and zoomed of. Meanwhile Jack was fighting the guards and eventually knocked them all out. Then he ran outside and jumped on his bike made the bike go as fast as it could. He then caught up to the truck and swung himself onto the truck. He climbed inside and planted a bomb n the engine of the truck. He then jumped with a huge jump off the truck land on the side of the road. He then activated the bomb which blew the truck up which had his evil brother and partner inside. The truck fell to pieces and toppled over a few times. After all that his life went back to normal but he had a felling that his brother was still alive.

Our day at The Panmure Library


Today we were all excited to go to the Panmure Library. We were going because we were going to learn about our local mountain which was called Mount Wellington. The only thing that was on my mind was that we had to walk! A teacher from the Juniors called Mrs Ang came with us. When we got there a lady was waiting for us. Her name was Ruth. She was one of the librarian at the library. She took us up to a room up stairs. There were four people in there. There names were Pare, Juanita, Ole and Kare. They introduced themselves and said they were from the Auckland War Memorial Museum. Then they separated into two groups because they were going to tell us a story about two fairy tribes and we were  acting in it.

One group were called the Tuhere tribe that I was in and the name of the other tribe was patu piarehe. The other group used rakau (stick) for their bit in the story and we used patu (short hand club) for our bit. Our teacher was Juanita and the other groups teacher was Kare. Juanita taught us how to hold the patu properly and some actions with it. Kare the other teacher taught the other group how to hold the rakau properly and some actions too. So when we finished practicing we sat back on the mat and told the story with our actions. The story was about the two fairy tribes that could only come out at night, and a princess and a prince both from the Tuhere and Patu piarehe and then it started a war. Then we had to do our actions for the story.

After the play had finished we each got handed a piece of clay. Then they gave a us a matau and we had to push it into our piece of clay which made the shape in the clay. We had to fold it up into a tissue and put in a bag that Mrs Miller was holding. Finally we had a quiz. each teacher asked us a question about the what we did before. If you got the question right you would get a prize. I got it right and won the prize with four other people.
