Title: How Much More Time?
Author: Alba Gutierrez Mateo
Hello, my name is Amanda Martínez. I am 21 years old. I have
brown, curly hair. I have green eyes and I have fat lips. I am very shy. My
family is a normal family. I have a sister called Monica. She is 17 years old,
and she loves sports. My mother and father are very funny and clever.
One day, I was playing handball (I love playing handball) against
MoonStarts. After the match, my team (which has 7 girls), saw a strange man in
changing-room. Camila, who is my best friend, went to speak with the strange man,
and within 1o minutes we heard a shout. We ran to the changing-room. It smelled
very bad and then we fainted.
We woke up in a horrible room. It was cold and we were hunger and
we were thirsty and scared. We stayed in that room for 10 years. Sometimes we
heard strange sounds, and we heard the man but we never saw him. They gave us
food and water when we were sleeping. We never went out. We slept on the floor.
We ate with the hands. And more things like that.
One day, while we were sleeping. I woke up because someone started
to cry. That was normal, but this cry sounded strange like a dog. But it wasn´t
a dog, and someone started to talked. This too was strange. People can´t talk
like that. It sounded like a cat. So when I heard that, I went and
saw strange people. They were humans but not like me. They had strange colors
of hair, like pink, green, and purple. There were 3 girls and 7 boys. They
spoke english like me, but their voice sounded like animals.
When they saw me, they shouted. My friends woke up, and
they started to cry, but I continued approaching to the strange people. When
they understood that the samethig happened to me, they calmed down more o lest.
We tried to talk, but it was very difficult, because they didn´t trust me.
After 2 hours I talked to Camila. We had hope for the first fince in 10 years!
because if their family (or someone) started to looked for the 3 girls and the
7 boys, they could find us too.
The next day we talked with the new people in the room. They told
us, that they were playing football. After the match, they went to the
changing-room, and they fainted (more or less the same thing happened to us)
and next they were here. Camila, who is very bold, asked they if someone would
look for them, we got the impression that, no, their family was poor and they
had a lot of sisters and brothers, so they would be able to pay that money.
And now, 30 years later, we are friends but we are still in the
same situation. And I ask you, how more time do we have to wait to be found?
This
notebook was found in the year 2064. The girl who wrote this story is dead, and
all the people in the story are too, except Monica, the sister of Amanda. It is
a horrible life, and I want to give this notebook to Monica.

Title: I'm Not a Murderer
Author: Claudia Martinez
Chapter 1
I’m Tris Prior. I’m 17 years old. I am an orphan. I hate Caleb, my
brother. I haven’t seen him since 2000, 14 years ago. I hate school. I hate the
world, I think that it isn’t a good place to live. I don’t have friends, only
Christina, who is studying in China, I live in London, and in this moment, I’m
in Centre street.
Now, I’m very scared. I don’t know what is going to happen. The
only thing that can calm me down is a cigarette. I can’t wait any longer. I
have to escape. If I stay here the police will find me.
I run as fast as I can. I don’t know where I’m going to go. Maybe
I will steal a car. Or maybe I will rob money from a man and I will buy a train
ticket.
The second option is easier. Suddenly, I stop. I realize that I
can’t have my gum on the train, so I go to the parking lot to steal a car.
I’m doing this because I killed a man. I was talking on
phone with Christina when I was in the hospital, and this man told me:
“Shut up!.”
So I cut off his head.
“On centre street!! Run. They have seen her!!.” The head of the
policeman say.
“ Run,run,run.” shoot Max, the police’s partner.
The two policemen go to centre street, very fast in their black
car.
When they arrive, they call more policemen, and they
search thoroughly
After ten minutes, they go to the police office. They don’t find
her.
The head of the police say that the policemen all over the U.K
should be looking for Tris Prior.
OMG. They see me. I can’t believe it! I NEED to
steal a car. Now!!.
I’m going to the parking lot. I’m choosing a red car...I like red.
Now, I’m switching the license plate with that of another car. All
is ready.
READY, STEADY, GO!
I take the motorway and go to Scotland.
...All is wrong. I’m very angry with...with...with the world!! I
thought that in Scotland I could be free, but the policemen are everywhere. I
don’t know which is the best way to kill myself, but sure that I’m going to do
it…
Now, all people are safe. We are all safe. We are free of
murderers, because Tris Prior is dead. Her brother showed us a letter that Tris
wrote before she killed herself:
Dear Caleb:
I’m Tris, your sister, do you remember me? Everyone thinks
that I’m a murderer, but… I’m a good person. Maybe, you don’t
believe me, but I’m writing this letter to say you that I love you. I’m sure
that you’ll not believe me, but I don´t care.
Bye, Tris.

Title: Zebra Skin
Author:
Sara Romón Peña
Once upon a time there was a girl called Kafale, she was from Nairobi
(Kenya) and she lived there. But she wasn’t like other girls or boys. She had a
normal body, except at night. Her legs turn into centaur legs. Her legs were
like zebra’s skin. Nobody knew her secret because she was a normal girl with
wavy long ginger hair and green big eyes with long lashes; she was tall and
thin, but strong.
One day she was in Nairobi’s Park. There, she saw the zebras running.
She loved them; she loved them so much that she dreamed of becoming a zebra.
And it becomes true! That night she slept in the park, in a tree house. At
midnight she heard a scream.
“It’s a zebra” she thought.
She grabbed her knife and went to the ground to find out who screamed.
She saw a fire light in the distance.
“That might be the fire of some illegal zebra hunters. I will surprise
them and save the zebras” she thought.
“It’s a bad idea” her conscience said.
But she didn’t listen to her conscience. Near the fire she saw two
hunters and hurt zebras. Kafale threw a stone in the distance and the two
hunters thought that she was another zebra. They ran to find the zebra. Then
she guided the zebras to her tree house. There she took care of the zebras
during two days. The last day she took care of them she had a visitor come to
her tree house. In front of the door, appeared two centaurs with zebra skin on
their legs.
“Ahh! Who are you?” Kafale shouted.
“We are centaurs from the tribe of ZEBRA SKIN. You showed a lot of
bravery, saving the zebras” said one of the centaurs.
“You shall become one of our tribe” said the other.
Kafale was in shock she couldn’t believe it.
The two centaurs guided her to their tribe and she becomes a centaur. In
the tribe everybody was happy.
“We have a queen!!!”
“We are saved from Zeke!!!”
Kafale didn’t know who Zeke was. Finnick one of the escorts explained to
Kafale.
“Zeke is the worst devil known to Humanity. He destroys all the centaurs
from the Earth, because the centaurs were very miserly and all they disappeared
except for our tribe. We were nice to the Earth.” “Our queen is condemned to
wander for the rest of time in the morning she will be like a human, but at
night she will be like a centaur. If anybody finds out her secret, she will
die.”
“And who is your queen?” asked Kafale.
“You are” said Finnick.
Kafale was again in shock. She couldn't believe it.
Kafale was the centaurs’ queen for five years. When she was twenty (in
centaur’s years) she married Finnick and she has one daughter and one son.
One day, at night, she was swimming in the lake with her centaur body.
She didn’t notice that a hunter was looking at her. When she got out of the
lake, the hunter sowed her and discovered her secret. She died at that moment.
Zeke rapted her, and hold her in his dead world for the rest of time.

Title: Beltz and Cora
Author: Julia
Zabaleta
Tracy, Holly and Belinda were sun bathing at Belinda´s
house. They were fifteen years old and very good friends. They all were
adventurous, friendly and fun. Tracy was tall and thin. She had straight, long
and blond hair. Her eyes were small and blue. Holly was also tall and thin. She
loved reading mystery books. She had short, black and wavy hair. And at last,
Belinda; she was a little bit fat but she loved horse riding.
They were bored and Tracy had to take her dog, Beltz, for a
walk. So that´s what they did. They went to visit another dog named Cora. Cora
was Beltz´s friend. But Cora wasn´t in the garden, and the blinds of the house
were all closed. That was very strange because it was a hard working family and
they didn’t use to go on holidays, so there was always somebody in the house.
The father was a very famous inventor. Beltz started to cry.
``Oh! Poor puppy, don´t cry. I´m sure that Cora is inside
the house and her family is sleeping, ´´ said Holly.
In that moment the neighbour passed by running.
``Where is this family? Are they on holidays?´´ asked Tracy.
``I don´t know where they are but yesterday night I heard
strange sounds and a few minutes later a man dressed in black left the house.´´
``Maybe we should call the police,´´said Belinda.
``But probably they are sleeping. They work until late hours
at night and are often tired,´´he said.
``Well, okay,´´said Tracy.
So they returned home. It was summer so the next day they
didn´t have class.
``See you tomorrow.´´
``Bye.´´
``Bye.´´
Next day, Tracy, Holly and Belinda met at Cora´s house. They
were very intrigued by what had happened the day before. So they went there
again with the excuse of taking Beltz for a walk. When they arrived there, they
saw a car parked in front of the house. Inside the car there was a man who was
looking at the house. It was very odd so they decided to call the police.
When the police arrived there, a policeman started to ask
questions like:
``Who are you?´´
``Where do you live?´´
After an interrogation the policeman said that he was going
to check if all was in order. He noticed that the door had been forced so he
called for backup.
They went into the house and minutes later they came with
all the family, Cora included. They had been tied up and the robbers had run
away when they saw the police coming. They wanted the new invention that the
father was developing.
The family thanked Holly, Tracy and Belinda because they
rescued them, and Cora and Beltz lived happily ever after.
