Grade Year 9
A
Read the following extract carefully
In the shadowed alleyways of the city, where flickering neon lights cast an eerie glow, Lila hurried through the labyrinth of cobblestone streets. Her heart pounded with a mingling of fear and determination as she clutched the mysterious amulet tightly in her palm. Rumours spoke of a clandestine society that protected ancient artefacts, and tonight, Lila had stumbled upon their secret. As she approached the dilapidated warehouse where the society convened, a sudden gust of wind rustled the pages of her battered notebook, whispering tales of forgotten worlds and unseen dangers. Every step she took was fraught with peril yet driven by an unyielding desire to uncover the truth buried beneath layers of deception and myth. Her journey through the city's shadows was a testament to her courage, even as the line between reality and legend blurred beneath the oppressive night sky.
