The Calf's Horrible Day That Turns Out To Be Good.

This is my Recount/Final draft. I hope you like it.

The Calf's Horrible Good Day

It’s a beautiful day outside in the sandy Savannah in Africa.  The sun was out of the clouds, in fact the clouds aren't here at all because it was so warm!  It was October the 17th, my herd and I were trying to find an entrance to the river bank, so we could have a drink. My herd and I were walking down the river bank.  I really hope I can grow to be a big strong buffalo like my dad, so I can protect the herd from danger, like from lions, tigers, leopards and cheetahs, maybe not cheetahs because they’re too fast.

My herd and I were walking down the river bank again to find leaves or grass because we love the taste of mouthwatering grass and leaves.  Instead we saw a pride of lions coming to eat us, so we were running for our lives! I was really slow and the lions caught up to me with their fast speed adaptation added to their legs so they can grab their prey. I hear the lions coming towards my herd and I. They gripped onto me with their furious blood lurking teeth to crush me.  For me it felt like I was going to implode into nothing.  I felt like a chew toy. The lions pulled me to the side of the river bank away from my family so my family couldn't rescue me!  Why did I come here? I should have known this is where lions live!  I really hoped my family will save me, so I can get away from the furious hollow boned lions.

Then I thought I could smell a crocodile, I saw a crocodile! The lions and the crocodile are pulling me apart like a chew toy to eat me! I felt like I was bleeding everywhere, the lions pulled me harshly, then it felt like I was dying so I couldn't be revived!  The lions were too strong for the crocodile and the crocodile let go so the lions took me back onto land.

Please save me dad, I really hope I will survive.  What am I kidding I’m not going to survive an attack from lions and a crocodile!  

It was tiring because of the heat of the burning sun. Blood sweat and tears were draining from my limp body.  The Sun was making me sweat as if I was going to die!  I felt as if my bones were breaking and I was going to die! It was atrocious like it was the end of my herd and I.  I felt that my energy was drained enough for me to stop moving.  I felt like nothing existed.

I saw my herd coming back to rescue me. My dad was charging like a lightning bolt towards one of the lions and then he shot the lion away, before  grabbing me from them. I saw my dad end a lion by throwing the lion furiously away into the river bank. My herd kicked the lions out of the space that we need.  The lions sprinted away from us because we beat them up. We found a new home.  I hope they don’t come back again.  If they do, I will get hurt.

My family came back to save me, It was a relief. But now I have won and it is my time to stand up for myself and win every time anything comes to attack.
