Skulduggery Pleasant

Today i was woken up by my father who told me to get up and ready because my sisters were going to school and he had to bring them. I don`t know why i had to be woken up so early if they were going to school not me (i`m not back yet). But i got out of bed anyway and went downstairs had my breakfast and checked my snapchat. When my dad came back he told me why he had woken me up so early, he was bringing me to Hodgis Figgis bookshop in town to get the new skulduggery pleasant book. In my mind i jumped and squealed, but on the outside i had a straight face "thanks Dad" i said then walked away. I got dressed and i got my money and my dad and i walked to the luas. we got our tickets got on the luas rode it St.Stephens Green when i got out i turned left and walked on for about ten meters until i realized that my dad was twenty meters behind me an walking the other way. I turned and ran back to him and together we walked his way to the bookshop. As we entered the best bookshop ever, i spotted the 9th skulduggery pleasant i grabbed it and told my dad i was going to get another book. I was looking for the other book when i heard my dad literally scream my name i said yeah , he screamed again and i screamed back "WHAT!" he came over to me while others in the bookshop stared. He said the the cashier told him that the special limited edition was hidden in the bookshop i snatched the list of clues from her hand and discussed them with dad. The cashier then asked us questions relating to the clues my dad and i stared dumbfound while she talked interrupting only to answer a question wrong. After she had led us to the section which it was hidden in we searched for a while, checking the clues every few minutes they made no sense.Then a woman came in with two kids she looked around for about 2 seconds then grabbed a black book from the shelf. It was the right one. she smiled at us and was about to leave when i said rather loud "SHOOT" she looked at me and said "here you have it ,my daughters already got hers"i smiled and thanked her, happy that my little trick had worked.

The Alarm

This is my first blog so hi.
Today i had three and i swear it tennis matches
two singles and one mixed doubles, tonight i will sleep well. After i finished all my matches i decided to go home, the thing that greeted me was not what i expected. I got home,took out my key and put it in the door only to find that my mother had put the chublock on the door. I had already once been stranded outside because my key broke in the lock,so i prayed yes i did,writing it now sounds crazy ,but  i prayed just enough that when i put my key in the lock and turned it to the left it did not work until five minutes later when i figured out that i should have been turning it right. I should have been happy when the lock clicked and i flung open the door but i was not because alas the alarm was on. I did the little rhyme in my head that i use to remember my alarm and i got it, sadly that rhyme is about one minuter long, unfortunately for me, when you open the door without turning off the alarm for more than one minute the guards will come. So i ran over to the alarm and typed in the code *beep beep* that noise means that the code is incorrect, i tried again *beep beep* i tried several more times. On the umpteenth try i finally got it. the house was silent for about a second until i heard the faint noise of a siren in the distance "Uh oh!" is all i said as i ran outside.
