As the sun beats down on my face, i sigh, under the old oak tree i felt secure, safe, and at the same time, alone and lost in thought. My name is Tom Rhodes, i live on a farmw tih my twin brother, little sister and my parents. My father is a blacksmith but recently he got a call to arms from our village leader, we live in a small saxon village, so it would be time for my brother and i to step up, and this is my story.
From the time i was little i was always told i had a bright future, everything just fell into place for me, but then i look at my twin brother mark and how hard he's had to work for the very little he has, but unlike myself he was blessed with brawn, he's your typical "Man", where i inherited my mothers intelligence, which isn't much, it makes me feel like i'm useless when it comes to farmw ork but this one week, will change my life forever
"Aghh! I hate summer, it gets too hot and there's absolutly nothing to do!" My brother mark complained. "Atleast we're not burdened with the farm work, or worse having mother try to teach us." My mother was a well known scholar around our village, she made remedies for the wounded, and was your typical house doctor, which made our family quite popular. "yeah i suppose, and the help dad hired to make it easier for us to focus on finding an apprenticeship." I gloated, knowing their was nobody around looking for an apprentice, due to the recent draught. I began to doze off when my brother exclaimed "You up for a swim?" I bet the water would cool that hot head off!" Being annoyed I snapped back sarcastically "Yeah hopefully your big head wouldn't pull you down and drown you!
It's a good story idea. (I'm not gonna comment on the grammar and spelling, which was terrible. Just saying, haha!)
ReplyDeleteAnyways, I like the plot. It's not far enough in to see who's coming into town and who's leaving it but it's just the beginning of the story so that's ok.
