The Ending Of The Ice Palace

 Kia Ora Bloggers!

In Rimu we have been  reading the Ice Palace and we finally got to the end, It was a very twisted ending and I would really recommend the book. Everyone sat down and listened to the book, then we had to write our own paragraph about what you think is going to happen.

This is the sentence starter: Ivan Clapped a hand to his mouth stifling a cry he was looking at.

This is my paragraph to end the story.

Ivan Clapped a hand to his mouth stifling a cry he was

looking at ….. Something colder than winter, colder than Ivans

land, something colder than Starjiks heat. Horrified a thousand lifeless

eyes glaring at him almost like they were begging Ivan to help, to help

them get away from the child taker. Tears sprang to his eyes like winter

to spring running down his cold red cheeks, Suddenly a frail boney stiff hand

latched onto his pocket yanking his diamond tears from his pocket that the

old women gave to him on his way  Ivan was confused as Starjik glared into his

hand with his eyes bulging from his head, Ivan started to feel sick , his head

spinning and stomach-turning ” NOOOOOO “ his tears gone the only hope left to

save his brother but worried on what Starjik would do next he slowly

backed away but as fast as light itself Starjik held his hand tightly and

pulled it into him  he made a fist and shoved Ivan onto the ground, as cold

as the crisp air tears sprung into his eyes sliding down his cheek and falling

to the ground, the rough ground tearing at his flesh and ripping it away, but Ivan

needs his brother to be safe needs him to stay alive and needs him to be free,
free from this nightmare.

Ivan starts to lose hope, he cannot save his brother no matter how

hard he will try no matter what. Terrified and hopeless Ivan starts to

cry knowing that he won't see him again never ever again we'll never

see him free. The swift tears swivel down his cheek and make a clink

on the ground. But that sound that one clink gave Ivan all of his hope back

he has tears the tears that will save his brother, he slashes the ground  

pulling them into his hand he pulled himself up and throws the tears onto

him burning him into his face, the fire raging and Ivan racing to find

something to let his brother free.

Finally he finds a box of matches it was so tiny  but that tiny box can

save thousands of children's lives he opened it slowly  making sure not drop to them

, but there was only one how could one match free that many lives from the cage of

coldness, Ivan breathed in an icy breath and lit the match the flame

spoke almost if it was saying freedom, he through it at the huge ice cage

it spun in the air like a million fireflies and landed on his brother.

Stumbling he goes to get a cup and pours the water

once on him when he was breathing again he yanked him

from the cage and hugged him with all his might and whispered

in his ear come on we need to save the others all of the others,

 they ran to the village the snow slowing down not able to keep up

with them, the run faster and faster like lightning to get to the village

, they needed to find help they sprint and sprint around trying to find

someone anyone the run back with the others but Starjik wasn't there but they

knew he would come back but now all the wanted to do was sleep they could finally sleep.
