The Fight for life

Henry Sanford Smith had been fighting for the Allied countries in France. One day he got shot and he crawled through puddles for hours. While he was going through the puddles he saw his reflection in a puddle. He put his medium sized hand through his dark brown hair. He brushed off black ashes on his face, his black pants had holes in them. He didn’t realise that the bullet wound was dripping blood. But he did realise that he was starving for four hours. He had a blackout and woke up in his trench with a medic beside him fixing up the bullet wound in his leg. Suddenly a plane crashed nearby and Henry was in more pain. He had a blackout again and had de je vu because another medic was beside him. This medic was a different one she had been shot too but she still fixed him up. Ten weeks later Henry arrive back to his home, New Zealand. He soon went back to his job being a mechanic.
