I'm publishing Chapters 1 and of 16. After reading the first chapter, please tell me whether you are interested to read it all or not! It's rated for everyone and it's recommended for people who like to read adventure or stories about school life. It is also a runner up entry for a writing competition we have each year in Ireland. Enjoy! Smile

- Chapter 1 -

Rose was thirteen when she was left alone on the island of Marawanga...

It all started when Ms Frank, her geography class teacher was talking about their cruise all around the world. "We will be going from here into the Atlantic Ocean and then..."
Rose was daydreaming. She could already imagine herself standing at the deck, watching birds out in the distance flying into the sunset...

"Miss Rose Dairy!" Ms Frank was standing beside Rose's desk, though Rose was still too busy to notice. She closed her eyes and started swinging on her chair. Ms Frank cleared her throat and gently poked the pupil's shoulder. Suddenly, Rose lost balance and fell back. Everyone else turned around started giggling. Rose started to blush.
"Now that Rose is back with us," said the teacher as she walked back to her desk. "I would like to inform you that anyone who doesn't behave from now until the trip in two weeks, will not have permission to go.

Just then, the school bell rang. Ms Frank handed out the permission slips to everyone as they walked out.

*Writer's note: Yes, I know this is very short of a chapter. The others can be 4 times longer than this Razz
