Year 10 Creative Writing about the Plague - Chris

10TFe spent some time studying the time of Plague in Europe as their introductory English topic. As part of the formative assessment, they completed some creative writing. We learned about different types of narration, and chose to use first person narration to tell our stories.

“Bang” goes the gun shots, killing the digs and cats. The scariest thing I’ve ever seen in my whole life. The plague is the main cause for animal’s dying-not just animals but also humans like me. One by one dying in their own tracks, we were trying to escape but it was too late. The Plague had already taken over. Killing us like shattered boiling rocks falling onto our bodies.

Tip is a hero, but a much unknown one. “I am a hero, above all heroes”, yelled out Tips. Tips was once caught by the Plague but also outlived it. He once told me that when the Plague infected him, it was the most painful moments he’d ever felt in his whole entire life. He once again got caught by the Plague but is still trying to survive.He cried after looking over to his granddad. He was covered in red spots called rashes.

What the flea could do to you is it spreads rat blood into your body and what the blood does to you is it spreads. You suddenly start t0 get rashes which turn into boils and you become very sick and unfortunately most of the people die. A doctor also known as a medic was one of the reasons why people survived the Plague.
