Nickolas O'Reily

Nickolas O’reily
Nickolas O’Reily was in North Africa, fighting for his country New Zealand in World War 2. When he went to sleep he dreamt about coming back to Pukekoe and reuniting with his wife Barbara and his children Peter and Francis. He then went back to doing his job which was writing for The Dominion Post. He woke up, knowing it was all a dream. He then heard the sound of the bugle. The day was Guy Fawkes 1944, which was Nickolas’s birthday. He was turning 24. He looked in a mirror and saw himself while combing his hair. He saw his brown hair and brown eyes. He also saw his freckles. Six months had passed and Nickolas was wondering when he would come back to New Zealand. Then a messenger came and said, 
“The war is over, Hitler is dead.” 
An aircraft carrier came to get the soldiers. Nickolas went back to Pukekoe and saw his family again.

  2. That was a great narrative Kyle.
    I really liked the way you described Nickolas through his dream and while he was looking in the mirror.
