Bee Attack! (Composition 1 by He Qing)

A Bee Story It was a bright and breezy morning. Tom pedalled his way slowly along a log which was the only way across the river to get to the other side. It was the start of the weekend and he was out for some fresh air. He was overjoyed that his dad promised him to take him out for a camping trip. Out of the blue, he felt that he knocked onto something. Curiosity got the better of him. He turned around and saw a yellow object. He was curious about what it was and put his hand in. He felt it shaking. He finally figured out what it was. It was a beehive！He knocked it against a tree and the beehive broke. All the bees came out and flew towards the sky. Tom looked up and said anxiously, ‘Ah-oh! Good bees, good! Stay!’ They were not dogs and did not stay. Tom screamed like a little girl and hopped onto his bike. With no time to waste, he paddled off as fast as he possibly could. The bees were slowly catching up as he was left with no energy at all. Suddenly, he spotted a pond. A light bulb appeared above his head. It got a brilliant idea in it. He paddled towards the pond and when he was close enough, he hopped right in. The bees suddenly stopped and flew off. After what seemed like eternity, Tom could not hold his breath any longer. He rushed up, gasping for fresh air to notice that the bees have moved on. Heaving a sigh of relief, he staggered his way back home, leaving his bicycle behind. Back home, he related the horrifying incident to his mum. What a harrowing incident it was!
