GIGAWRITING B

1st ESO 
Some years ago, a group of four friends called Jake, Matt, Becky and Emily who were from England came to Tona because they had heard scary stories about a castle there and they wanted to investigate. They had asked their parents if they could go to Tona to discover the history of the castle and their parents had agreed, they needed permission because they were between 13-15 years old. When they arrived in Tona, Catalonia they spoke with the children that lived in the town of Tona to check if the stories of the castle were true or false and to find out more information.
The next day, they were ready to go to the castle and they were very excited. The castle had a large hole outside that Matt didn’t see so he fell down into the ground. When the friends pulled Matt out from the ditch he had a strange object in his hand. It was a mysterious enigmatic puzzle they had to solve so they could open the door of the castle.
They were trying to decide whether to enter the castle when Emily was very brave, walked to the main entrance and peaked inside. The castle was very dark and dirty. It looked deserted and there were lots of cobwebs. The children were terrified but they decided to explore the castle.                                     
2nd ESO 
When they opened the door, Jake fell into another hole. The hole was very deep and was as dark as night. The children couldn´t see anything. When Jake landed at the bottom of the hole, he saw a shadow. He was very frightened and he shouted. But he said to his other friends “Jump into the hole”. They jumped into the hole and they didn´t think twice because they wanted to help Jake. So when they were all reunited, they followed the shadow and it took the boys in front of a tall wall and on the wall was written in blood: “Today I will kill you”. The children screamed and they knew they were in danger. The children started running because they were very afraid and Jake shouted “Lets separate and run in different directions”. However, as they were trying to escape they found a labyrinth. They tried to escape from the labyrinth but it was very dark and they couldn´t see anything.  When Jake turned around, he couldn’t see Emily but he could hear her screaming in the distance. Then he heard the running and grunting of a dangerous and evil minotaur. He knew they had to find each other if they wanted to rescue Emily.
                                     
3rd ESO 
After this, they saw a shadow and started to follow it because they thought it was Emily as they had heard alot of shouts. Suddenly they stopped, their faces explained it all: Emily was beheaded and the minotaur was following them. A few minutes later they arrived on a cliff and they didn’t have any other option than jumping. The image was very stunning. Then the three jumped into space.
Suddenly a big light appeared and it started abducting the kids. It was a UFO! When they were in the UFO, one ET told them to keep calm. They could help them, but the kids were shouting. And the ET took a needle of morphine.

4th ESO 
Then Jake didn’t faint because this needle wasn’t full of morphine as the ET thought, so Jake went to look for an antidote.
Matt, Emily and Becky went to the 4th dimension and they started to see a world of sweets. This world was absolutely amazing! There was a river of chocolate, the flowers were lollipops, there were lots of clouds made by sweets, the floor was soft and the houses were made of nougat.
Behind the sweets they saw Umpalumpas. The three friends started to count how many Umpalumpas were behind the sweets.
The Umpalumpas brought the three friends to the castle of Tona. The ET did the same with Jake.
Then the four friends arrived to the main entrance of the castle and gave the completed puzzle to the Minotaur.
Finally they could get into the castle.

GIGAWRITING C

1st ESO
One day, six ghosts who were all sisters and brothers that lived in The World of the Dead, went to the cinema to watch a film. The film was scary because it was about living people. This frightened the ghosts because real people called “humans” are very strange. They have physical bodies and physical features: arms, legs, heads and faces. However, this film was not too scary so the ghosts became very bored and restless when suddenly a very strange thing happened, they were in the film! They had a human appearance! For the ghosts, it felt very strange because they didn’t know how to control their new bodies. As ghosts they didn’t have to eat, but now they felt hungry and their stomachs started rumbling. Also, they began to need the toilet, but they couldn’t control their bladder! When it became night, the ghosts were very tired, but they didn’t know how to sleep. They were very scared in their new environment and they didn’t know what to do…
2nd ESO
One of the ghosts, called Toby, went out into the street because he couldn’t sleep. While he was walking, he saw a beautiful woman. She had big red lips, she was pale and her eyes where red, she had long black hair. He fell in love with her. He knew that she was a vampire, because of her appearance. You can’t decide who you fall in love with. He started following her but he saw that the girl, called Yvette, was with a wolf man. Toby didn’t know about feelings so he started to feel love and he became very jealous. He went home sad, however he couldn’t find the road to go home. Suddenly Yvette appeared in front of Toby.
-Why where you following me? –said Yvette.
-Sorry, I got lost, I wasn’t following you –said Toby.
He went to a psychiatrist, to ask about what was happening to him. The doctor said to him:
-You’re in love, I’m sorry. We don’t have any treatments for this.
-What’s love? What’s the meaning? –asked Toby scared.
-Love is the best, and the worst thing that can happen to you. Because sometimes ‘I love you’ is a lie and all the ‘forever’ has an end –said the doctor.
3rd ESO
Toby followed Yvette every night, as the days passed by he loved her more and more and he couldn’t sleep.
One day, Toby followed Yvette and the Wolf man and waited until the end of the meeting until he overheard Wolf man saying:
-Goodbye, Brittany. I love you so much.
Toby was surprised and confused because he thought that the girl’s name was Yvette. Then Toby turned and he saw Yvette and she asked:
-Why are you following my sister every night?
-Your sister? But are you Yvette? - said Toby.
-Yes…and she is Brittany, we are twins. Brittany’s boyfriend is the Wolf man, called Jacob.
Toby was very confused because he didn’t really know who he loved. Yvette started walking. When Toby saw her, he knew that the vampire who he saw the first day and the vampire who he loved was Yvette. He was very happy, Yvette didn’t have any boyfriend so he could try to captivate her heart.
4th ESO
After a few days, Toby decided to meet Yvette in the park because he wanted to tell her his feelings. From the first moment Toby saw her, he fell in love because she was charming, had a good figure and she turned heads. Their eyes met. Toby saw her perfect lips, he was daydreaming. Yvette and Toby moved their mouths closer until their lips almost met. Butterflies invaded his stomach and when he opened his eyes he saw his sister shouting “Toby, Toby are you here?”. Toby couldn´t speak but he realized he was in the cinema and he had fainted because the film was too scary. His other brothers were staring at him. It was crowded with people who were in the cinema. He had a shiver and he thought, "Will I see Yvette again?”

One day, William and Elizabeth, who are good friends, were walking through the forest when suddenly they discovered a very big and old house. This house was covered in moss and the windows were dark, dust and were full of cobwebs. It looked deserted. The grass in the garden was overgrown and in the middle was an old statue of a woman. William went to the main door, opened it and he found a dog. The dog was small, brown and looked very scared. The children decided to adopt it and called it Moon, but the dog escaped. It ran up the stairs to the first floor so William and Elizabeth decided to follow the dog. When they arrived upstairs, in the first bedroom, they found a music box playing sad songs.  The bedroom felt haunted and the children were frightened. Then they discovered footsteps of blood and they started to follow them. The footsteps led the children to a dark tunnel underground. In the tunnel, they found a dead girl dressed in white. They were frightened so the children and Moon, the dog, ran back into the forest. In the forest, they suddenly saw an old man…
                                   
2nd ESO A
The children followed the old man. Suddenly, he turned around and he saw the children and the dog. The man started to speak to them and he told them about the history of the house. He explained to the children the story of how the girl died. The man said “A long time ago, a family lived in the house with a dog and they had one daughter. One day the parents mysteriously disappeared and the girl tried to escape but the ghosts that haunted the house stopped her. The girl died of starvation but she transformed into a ghost too.” The children said thank you to the man. Then they took Moon, who was barking loudly and they returned to the house to discover the story of the dead girl. But when they were in the house the ghost started screaming, the windows and doors started slamming and the lights started flickering. Suddenly the ghost pushed William and Elizabeth into a hole. The only thing they could see in the dark was the girl´s white dress covered with blood. They saw some footprints in another direction and they decided to follow the bloody trail.....
3rd ESO A
After they found the footprints, they followed them and walked into a tunnel and they arrived at a big door. Elisabeth took the shoes off and they started running. Elisabeth stepped on some glass and she started bleeding. William carried her across the tunnel until they saw a big, brown door and they opened the door. They started walking and found themselves in a big forest. They found a mobile phone and they called an ambulance. They took Elisabeth to hospital and the doctors cured her. The doctors asked Elisabeth to take it easy for some days. She went home. After some days, the dead girl started to appear in her dreams. One night, she strangled Moon...

4th ESO A
Elizabeth was very frightened because the dead girl kept appearing everywhere she was. Elizabeth tried to speak with William but he had disappeared and nobody knew where he had gone and Elizabeth started to think that the dead girl had something to do with this incident. In the end Elizabeth didn´t know what to do and she didn´t know how to speak to anyone so finally she went over to her bedroom window and jumped. 

All of a sudden she woke up in bed. She started shouting because she was very confused and couldn´t understand what had happened as the dream had felt very real. William heard her screams and entered into the bedroom.
