Hidden Paths
Chelsea opened the blinds to be warmly welcomed by a velvety pink sky with strands of marbling gray clouds. Suddenly remembering that with her friends, was going to explore the path behind the rusty gate at school, she bounced and got dressed in her newly pressed, stripy school uniform, with a badge that said “Little Harbour Elementary”, she pranced happily down the stairs, starting to pick up the aroma of slightly burnt toast and over ripened marmalade. Turning the corner into the kitchen, she saw her mum, working hard to prepare her lunch for school. The beams of vibrant pink light curved around her face and hit the clock. Chelsea was running late! Grabbing the crispy toast, she spread the marmalade and quickly devoured the milk, dashing out the door without even tying her shoe laces.
Pacing quickly down the street, the sky had turned grey and the clouds had engulfed the sky. Chelsea now feeling the pain of running after eating, slowed down, allowing her to notice many small details on the street she hadn’t noticed before. Mr. Lockwood’s house had a cracked window pane and Mrs. Huang had water bottles lying around her big swollen orange trees. She caught a glimpse of shadow next to Ms. Green’s house. Immediately her curiosity pulled her forward to investigate. Coming closer and closer, it was a shabby wooden gate mounted between two towering fences. Chelsea pushed the door with her soft fingertips, and it seemed to open at will. Peeking down the endlessly deep corridor, she had found a hidden path.
Looking down at her watch, Chelsea was going to be late if she explored the path. Curiosity seized control of her brain and muscles, and it was as if the path was calling out for her and sucking her in...
The door creaked back into its place and Chelsea was walking down the pathway. The sound of every step she took was bouncing back at her as she was stepping on polished pebbles. Trees towered over her, the leaves exposing random pockets of the dull sky. The scratchy wooden fence was changing thickness as she walked down the path, like a bendy piece of rotten plastic. Nature was also blooming in the little pathway. Chelsea gazed up at the colourful array of birds and squirrels folding in and out of the leaves and branches. Chirps and squeaks and various other sounds slowed Chelsea down to a halt, allowing her to admire the beauty of the mysterious pathway.
What seemed like eternity, Chelsea kept walking, knowing she’d gone too far to go back. Getting a little nervous, her heart beat increased and so did her pace. The pebbles underfoot were being pounded by her pink shoes as she ran scared to be late for school and wanting to escape this infinite path. A beam of light finally was seen. The light in the shape of a grill almost seemed to blind her as she had gotten used to the murky, but vibrant darkness in the pathway. A familiar shape loomed upon her. A rusty old gate with spikes on top. This was it! Chelsea immediately recognised the gate and shoved it open. The gate was the gate she was going to explore today! Hastily glancing at her watch, she had five minutes to spare. With such exciting information, Chelsea dashed to class to tell everyone about her grand adventure.

隐藏的路径
切尔西打开百叶窗受到天鹅绒般的粉红色天空的热烈欢迎，天空中有大量的大理石纹灰云。 突然想起和她的朋友们一起去探索学校生锈的大门后面的路径，她跳了起来，穿上了她新穿的条纹校服，上面写着“Little Harbor Elementary”的徽章，她高兴地走下去 楼梯，开始捡起略微烧焦的烤面包和成熟果酱的香气。 转过角落进厨房后，她看到了妈妈，努力为学校准备午餐。 充满活力的粉红色光束在她的脸上弯曲并击中时钟。 切尔西跑得很晚！ 抓住酥脆的烤面包，她涂上橘子酱，迅速吞食牛奶，冲出门，甚至没有系鞋带。
快速地沿着街道踱步，天空变得灰暗，云层吞没了天空。 切尔西现在感觉到吃完后跑步的痛苦，放慢速度，让她注意到她之前没有注意到的街道上的许多小细节。 洛克伍德先生的房子里有一块破裂的窗玻璃，黄太太在她肿胀的橙树周围放着水瓶。 她瞥见格林女士家旁边的影子。 她的好奇心立刻让她前行调查。 越来越近，它是一个破旧的木制大门，安装在两个高耸的围栏之间。 切尔西用柔软的指尖推开门，似乎随意打开。 在无尽深深的走廊里偷看，她找到了一条隐藏的道路。
看着她的手表，如果她探索这条路，切尔西会迟到。 好奇心控制了她的大脑和肌肉，就好像这条小路正在呼唤她并吸吮她......
门吱吱作响，切尔西正沿着小路走下去。 当她踩着抛光的鹅卵石时，她所采取的每一步声都向她反弹。 树木耸立在她身上，树叶露出沉闷天空的随机口袋。 刮擦的木栅栏沿着路径走来时正在改变厚度，就像一块弯曲的塑料。 自然也在小路上绽放。 切尔西凝视着五颜六色的鸟类和松鼠，它们折叠进出树叶和树枝。 唧唧喳喳声和吱吱声以及其他各种声音使切尔西停顿下来，让她欣赏神秘之路的美丽。
看起来像永恒，切尔西继续走路，知道她走得太远不能回去。 有点紧张，她的心脏跳动增加，她的步伐也增加了。 脚下的鹅卵石被粉红色的鞋子砸了，因为她害怕上学迟到，想要逃离这条无限的道路。 终于看到了一束光。 烤架形状的灯几乎似乎让她失明了，因为她已经习惯了通道中阴暗但充满活力的黑暗。 一种熟悉的形状笼罩着她。 有钉的一个生锈的老门在上面。 就是这样！ 切尔西立即认出了大门并推开了它。 大门是她今天要探索的大门！ 她匆匆看了看表，有五分钟的时间。 凭借如此令人兴奋的信息，切尔西冲上课，告诉大家她的大冒险。
