Cabot Year Six

Dear Diary,

This has been the most dreadful week of my life.  I have been condemned in this prison for over a week now.  I was confined here against my will.  Let me tell you how it all began…

As the sun rose at 5am, the colours leaping into my bedroom.  I was getting for the speech at church (as I am the priest).  Covering myself with the robe, I opened my creaky door and left.  I thought about taking the risk of adding the sentence to my speech.  When I arrived, everyone was there.

Waiting to start, I shook.  “The queen is the noblest women but she has taken away our human rights.” At that moment, guards came in.  Heart thumping, legs shaking and palms sweating, I went towards them.  The next thing I knew, I was thrown into prison. Tomorrow is my execution.  To whom does this responsibility of my capture belong?

“Take this,” whispered Umer, as he threw me a paper areoplane. Heart thumping, I made my to my room and locked the door. Palms sweating, I unfolded the letter and on it was written’Midnight graveyard be there :  I jumped into my bed and waited for midnight.

The sun slipped behind the distant hills painting the sky red and black. When midnight struck, I slipped out of my bed . Trying not to make a sound, I hugged my coat against myself and avoided the dodgy stairs. As soon as I opened the door, a cold air hit me as if a gust of wind  blowed agaainst me. When i reached the site, I whispered “Umer” and a shadow whispered back. 

Suddenly, a strange shape came closer and closer. A while later, I realized it was the grave keeper!

Like a fleeting shadow, we hid behind a grave. When all was quite, I left my hiding space.

When I reached the safety of my house, I jumped into my bed my warm and cosy bed and as quick as a flash I was asleep.

Do you enjoy  gruesome acts?  Are you looking for the perfect day out?  Are you looking for entertainment?  Then come out and watch criminals being beheaded.

These execution are designed to give citizens a fun day out.  They will be full of joy and excitement.  There will be food, ale, soldiers and the Queen.  Just like carnival!

Executions are so gruesome you just have to come.  The whole family will want to go.  This event is entertaining and suitable for all ages.  It’s on almost every day.  After the execution, you will have time to enjoy the day.

Don’t believe us?  This event has taught a lot of people to stay within their limits.

“If it wasn’t for this, this country would be very violent” Queen Elizabeth.

Dear Diary,

Today was the most appalling day of my life. I am under false imprisonment and I have been condemned to death against my will. This is my statement of what happened:

As the sun rose this morning, the vivid colours danced over the hills. I had not a care in the world. Later, I was brutally dragged out of my hammock by a fellow officer. He dragged me into a compact room, with only a small, dim light flickering in the darkness. Someone approached me from the ebony-black shadows. I could only just make out the wonky figure. It was the captain, Francis Drake, with a mean, serious look on his face. Then after two minutes of staring, the captain  confronted me and explained that he knew I was trying to over power him. It was absurd I told him.  He looked disappointed. After that, Frances shouted at me and screamed that I deserve to die. He forced me to walk with him bellow deck and into the darkness, where he and my ex- officer tied me up and hit me. I am still badly bruised.

My execution is a week from now. The axe is awaiting…
