By: Josh       There was once a kid that was named greg. He was at a beach. Then a giant barrel wave came and he was in calf water deep.(where the waves usually break)! The wave was as tall as two of him! He layed down on his belly and was in the big barrel wave!

2 seconds later he saw a shark’s head right in front of him! He got his Gopro and was taking pictures and some videos and then he realized that the wave was caving in on him. He put his goggles on and BOOM! He got crushed by the wave.

He got out of the water and he saw the shark swimming away. He had to go to the hotel. So he had to pack up.

The next day he went back to the beach and the waves were bigger, stronger, and also taller. They were bigger because there was a storm nearby. So he got his boogie board and he was going to ride North Carolina’s Wrightsville beach waves.

He paddled out 15 yards out to sea and then he saw a 20 foot wave coming his way. He rode  that giant barrel wave. He went through the barrel and he got out just in time. He heard a giant crash from that wave. He wanted to play in the sand because he did not want to play in it before. So he got a shovel and started digging a three foot deep hole in the sand. He wanted to make it wider so he could fit in it.

Then he wanted to go back in the ocean into the water with his boogie board. It was 4 o’clock and the waves were rougher and larger and the sky was dark. It started to rain. He asked his mom that he wanted a few more minutes to be in the water. A 50 foot wave was coming his way. He did not realize that it was a mini tsunami! He had to get out of the water. So he paddled on his boogie board. He got of the boogie board and He was on the shore running for his life. The wave was chasing him. He went  in his hotel to hide from the tsunami. He went to the tallest story. He looked out the window and the whole beach was gone!

He went back on the beach and there was one more tsunami coming! The wave was 120 feet tall he ran all the way to Wilmington city with his family and they were safe! They even had their stuff back. They got a plane and they went home. THE END!!!!!
