Write a short story with 25 sentences. About a girl who is scared of thunderstorms.
Answer:
Explanation:
I shot up in bed awakened by the sound that I had thought was my alarm clock. I was surprised to find that the glowing red LED lights read 2:11 am. If it wasn't the alarm clock what was it? I had thought to myself while wiping the sleep from my eyes. Suddenly I heard a deafening crack. The type of crack you hear when you pour boiling water on ice. While the noise filled my ears a blinding light lit up my bedroom. I could make everything out as if someone had just flipped the switch on. I saw my vanity clear as day across the room.
It took a few moments before I came to my senses and realized what was happening. I had scanned the weather only hours on my laptop and had not noticed any warnings of a storm approaching. But here I was looking out my bedroom window face to face with the violent beast.
Suddenly I heard another deafening crack of thunder. This one so powerful my whole house trembled under the force of the storm. Like a child I ran for the security of my bed. Still warm from the few hours I had previously spent peacefully sleeping in it. I crawled deep within my blankets, covering myself from head to toe. Leaving nothing but a small space exposed, just large enough for me to see out of.
Answer:
Lightning flashed around them and thunder rumbled.The room lit up with a bright flash of lightening, and thunder rattled the windowpane.Thunder clapped and echoed through the hills,Lightening flashed in the east and thunder rumbled a posthumous threat and The boom of thunder and a bright glare made her eyes open ,Thunder echoed in the distance and lightening flashed.Thunder growled a deep rumbling warning but the thunder rumbled in the distance and the girl slumped to her chest.

Round every windward stake, or tree, or door.
