The Flashbacks (A Sequel to The Castle Loch)

February 5th, 2007

It’s been three years since the train crash. I have never been near water or a train since but today I was. The class are going to Edinburgh on a train and then we are going swimming.

On the train I kept seeing all the people that died. I told my teacher. She told me to calm down. So I tried to sleep but the people kept coming. When we got there I was scared of the pool. But I got changed and then I saw all the faces of the people.

I was terrified. I got into the pool slowly and tried to swim. I swan under water. Then I saw the train under water. I got out and my class started to laugh at me for screaming. So I got back in and kept on swimming. I felt someone grab my leg. I saw the old man who had done it to me, but he was dead, so I shook my head to see if it was real and saw Tom the bully. I shook him off and swam out.

The train back home was crowded but I managed to fall asleep. Back at the station I saw the castle and screamed, no one knew why but the person who sat next to me three years ago did…

    What a great story - I’m glad you carried on writing and added a sequel! Superb descriptions - I really felt scared and as if I was sitting on that train.
    Can we have another sequel please - I want to read more!

    That was an amazing sequel… I was riveted too. I really felt I went on a journey with you.

    When I read

    I saw the old man who had done it to me, but he was dead, so I shook my head to see if it was real and saw Tom the bully. I shook him off and swam out.

    I wasn’t sure who you shook off, Tom or the dead man… but maybe that was the effect you wanted. I’d be interested to read more about this ‘Tom the bully’.

    Very interesting because the way you described it well. your spelling was ok but it sounded like it was a bit rushed at the start.

    It could have more explainions.

    That was a good story. I like the way you have described the crash . I like the bit where you said you saw dead bodys under water. You could have said I went under and I looked for a second but I thought I saw a dead body.

    Your story gave me the shivers Sean. It is like all good stories when you want to read the next chapter to see what happens next and get some answers to your questions?

    I think that you are a talented writer with the ability to grip your audience.

    Well done.
