The Mystery Map

Today I finished writing creative writing, I had to think of the characters names, characteristics and personalities. It was fun making all the twists and turns.

 

I had just moved into my new house. They say that a millionaire once lived here. I didn’t think much of it until I saw a huge bump near the withered oak tree, I got my garden shovel and started digging.

 

 My shovel finally stopped and I pulled out a small box with a satchel inside. Inside the satchel there was a map. I was curious and it took me a few days to finally follow it. I took a look at the map and it went through the ocean, so I reached out to my friend and they gave me a boat. I started packing some resources, a life jacket for safety and started sailing. I should’ve sailed smoothly until a huge dark cloud was coming my way. I was scared and started to feel unsettled. I couldn’t do anything except wait.

 

Soon after I woke up, I didn’t know I had been sleeping this whole time! The sky rumbled as the sea waved and crashed hard on the boat. I was swallowing lots of sea water and then I fainted. I finally woke up after days, my boat was at the edge of an island. I was starving and weak. I looked through the boat and there were cans of water and nutrients bars. Later I noticed my map was gone, I freaked out. 

 

I stepped out of the boat and collected lots of resources. There was fresh water deep in the forest. I drank and drank until I could burst. I went to my boat and got all the cans to start filling them with water. I thought I could stay on the island until I thought of the life I had back home, everything was going so well. I was determined to start again. I sailed until nothing could stop me. I ate fish, raw fish.

 

It has been a month already. I was sick and tired of eating fish. I didn’t know what to do anymore. I was sure I had been reported missing, but no one ever came. I was floating on a boat in the middle of the ocean. I was weak when my boat was on an island. The sun shone into my eyes as I crawled onto the sand weakly. A few hours later some people found me laying on the sand. I sat down thinking what could’ve been the treasure.
