100 WC Week 2 - Trapped

The beach was idyllic: gentle blues waves murmuring; golden sand glistening; tiny fish swimming in rock pools. Cherry was exploring every nook and cranny, hunting for cowrie shells. Not just any shells though, small, pink shiny ones. Time was not on her side. The holiday was almost over.

Picking up their belongings, Mum and Dad retreated to the villa to pack. Immersed in her hunt, Cherry was too busy to notice - her necklace must be finished! Dark grey clouds began to gather overhead and then the sky grew darker. Suddenly a baleful blaring sounded a terrible warning. Startled, Cherry looked up. The beach was gone!
