"Don't cross the line!" said Effie. The famous last words of Effie. One of the most well known lines today. Before she passed away Effie was a promising child right from the start. She passed all her exams with excellence, played many sports and danced like no one had ever seen. But then came the day when she visited the 'line'. The line being the old railway tracks that carried 10 trains a day. She was with her best friend who had serious depression and wanted to come outside for the first time in months to here, so, of course, Effie took her to the line. They sat for a while just listening to birds sing and cricckets chirp in the warm afternoon sun. Then they heard a train coming. Slowly her friend stood up and walked towards the tracks. Effie suddenly realised why hey were here. As her friend stood on the lines the train was 10 seconds away. "Goodbye Effie" she said as she sighed. "Don't cross the line!" Effie said as she pushed her out of the way in time for the train to come and run her over.
