Francic Brandywine by Jess

Francis’ family never stopped looking for her, they searched high and low, they searched with police and detectives they tried to find out what had happened after that last diary entry.  Her family were told to stay away from where the action took place Bottlenose Forest. But do you think they listened? No they didn’t. They travelled out to Bottlenose forest. They place was buzzing with police and detectives, the entry was cordoned off with neon yellow tape with read “ police do not enter” The entrance was swarmed with demanding media wanting more information on what was going on.




Campers were being evacuated from the crime zone and family members were demanding to start there own search party. Francis’ family had come from all around the world, some of them even quit there jobs because they were so determined to find her and figure out what was going on. The whole entire family walked up to the entry where many security guards were standing, they told the security guards that they were helping wether they liked it or not. After several hours of debating the Brandywine family were allowed to enter the forest.



They walked around and soon found the police had ruined the place, spray paint sprayed on natures floor, police gear scattered everywhere. If you hadn’t been to Bottlenose Forest you would think it was a police base. But they decided to start right away, so off they went deep into the woods. Every step Francis parents and sibling took even more grief, sadness    and most of all horror was swept over them. But they had to find out what happened to there 17 year ild daughter. After a few hours of walking they arrived at their final destination, where all the action took place. Police and detectives were surrounding the lake and the little cottage in which they stayed in.



They were immediately meet by rude interviewers wanting more information for the world to know. “How did they manage to get in here” they asked themselves, but they family wasn’t focused on the media they were in fact focussed to find Francis and the person or thing that took her. They gathered together in groups of 2 and started to search all around the woods. They were equipped with food, water, walkie talkies and life supplies no one wants to take anymore risks. Since they were searching the whole of the woods they would be gone for days but it had to be done. Francis parents were filled with sadness but they were determined to find out what happened.


Francis father Riley was looking everywhere, high and low near and far he was looking everywhere. When Greg looked under a ordinary flax he found a envelope, it was the same writing that was on the last page of Francis‘ diary. The envelope said “ clue 1” Riley (the Father) and Catherine (the Mother) opened the envelope the envelope with eager and determination, the note was written in Francis‘ distinctive handwriting, it read “ row out to the middle of the lake were the flag is make sure you are quick, I am scared. Her parents reacted quickly, they told all of the people who were searching including the police and the detectives. They all returned back to base everyone wanted to know what was going on and what was going to happen. Police and detectives equipped them with this  undercover security system and then they were sent on there way. The family saw Riley and Catherine  row into the cystel blue lake but after a while they were out of vision. Francis parents were never seen again, the rest of the family hope that they are with there daughter but police and detectives say it is highly unlikely.

Keep The Alcohol Ban

Alcohol! Should the Brazilian government let these fans drink alcoholic beverages at The Fifa World Cup? Will it cause trouble or will it be controlled?

Should the Brazilian government let these fans have alcohol? Well if they do it may turn into an unsafe place for children to go and there maybe big fights before games. It could lead to serious injures or even deaths.

The Brazilian government has set this rule for over a decade and why should they withdraw this just because of the Fifa World Cup. The Fifa World Cup is not as powerful as a countries government.

If they take away the ban families won’t be able to go to these games because the intoxicated fans aren’t safe. People will start to take there anger out on innocent people and also innocent players, this is also not safe for other people.

The solution could be that all fans from both sides can wear wristbands and every time they purchase a drink they could get a hole punch, once they reach a certain amount of drinks or they are intoxicated they can get it cut off.

 To conclude I think alcohol should be banned because it is much more safer option and no one will get hurt. Quote- “ you can have fun without alcohol”.
