Te Mata Peak Daredevils

By Annalise

“Should we or should we not?” I said to Tiffany.

“Well if we want to be daredevils then yes,” Tiffany shouted. I thought for a moment, just standing there wondering if sliding down this thin, long shortcut would be a good idea.

I looked at Tiffany, she nodded ,so we started walking. But then suddenly Tiffany realised that it was nearly  a 90 degrees slope. We fell on our butts and started sliding down a rocky, bumpy hill. Dirt was flicking on our faces. Down.. Down.. Down.

Till I spotted a prickle just up ahead.

I shouted out to Tiffany, “watch out”  but it was too late, her hand had just been planted right on top of the pointy little prickle.

I was looking back at Tiffany to see if she was ok, She said, “I’m alright”.

I turned back around and saw the end on the short cut.

Tiffany and I didn’t realise that it just ended as a drop.

I tried to stop myself before it ended but it was too late. I fell and landed on the actual track on my but. I yelled “Tiffany Stop” but she didn’t hear me instead she landed right next to me.
