ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL,

BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE

EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

Inspired by Animal Farm, write a story illustrating the above principle.

   

    The air is cold, my surroundings are white; have I reached heaven yet?

“Get your ugly face out of this bed now! You know the drill now move it!”  No I’m still alive, still here suffering in this cold miserable dump where nothing ever changes apart from the colour of my skin.  The name’s Hannah and this is my fourth year in NEP BOARDING SCHOOL FOR GIRLS and in the four years I’ve been here I’ve never found out what NEP meant.  Could it be never ending punishments, (which goes with the schools criteria) or could it stand for never ending parties?  Some how the second suggestion doesn’t sound much like this school, there hasn’t been any parties for years not even a party for graduation what’s all that about? Aren’t they glad to get rid of us?

    It’s quarter past six (in the morning I must add!) and it’s cold and miserable, my hair is a mess I can’t feel my toes and to add to the list I’ve just been kicked in the head by Tina.  Tina’s the top prefect here and believe me no one crosses her, not even me!  My role in this dump is to get good grades and to make the most of my time here, in other words having a laugh, getting into trouble, having a caning here and there but most importantly my target in the near future is to put Tina in her place.  We’ve been talking about it for years and nothing has changed.  We need a plan of action, something that she’ll never expect….

    “Hannah, Hannah come on we’ve got fifteen minutes to get ready! Do you want me to drag you out of there like I did yesterday, DO YOU?”  My dream is interrupted by my best friends’ threats.

“Nah, you’re all right Maz I’m getting up now.  How come you’re wide awake at this time of morning, whilst everyone else is half dead?” I ask her with a bewildered expression.

“Well because….because”, she stutters trying to think of a comeback.

    “Because you’re a freak of nature with no social life!  What the hell is wrong is wrong with you? Do you take happy pills or something?” Tina bellows, I dare not say anything to her even though she makes me mad by tormenting Mari.  The next thing that’ll happen is Mari will burst out into tears because Tina will say something about her parents divorce and we’ll be late for breakfast.

Join now!

“That’s it you cry you baby, you can never take the truth can you?” She edges up to Mari’s face “Can you?”

    “No….no I can’t but….but….Hannah can.” What, I think to my self she’s landed me in it for good now.  I start to scramble myself out of bed and into the washing room before all hell breaks lose.

“Oh, so you think you can handle it do you? You think you can handle me?” She edges closer, closer again until she comes up to my face, we make eye contact what do I do? If I hit ...
