Six minutes later…..
Then, Bobby was in France. He climbed to the top of the eiffel tower and met a woman.
“Hi, have you seen my cat?” No, have you seen my sunglasses?” asked the woman.
“No, sorry.” Bobby said back, and climbed back down the eiffel tower.
Ten minutes later…..
Bobby was in a random place in Texas. “Howdy there human!” said a random cowboy. “Uh, hi?” said Bobby back. “Are you looking for your cat?” Said the random cowboy. “Yeah, how did you know?” asked Bobby. “I can read minds. Anyways, check in your pocket!” said the random cowboy. “Ok?” said Bobby. He checked in his pocket. “AHA!” yelled Bobby. “Here it is! My Camera Arm Toaster! I still have ten minutes left so I better get going! THANKS RANDOM COWBOY!”

Popcorn Robot Egg
by Henri, age 6, Rhode Island
One morning a farmer checks on his chicken eggs. He finds that one of them is a robot egg. The egg opens and inside is a diamond crystal. The egg shell transforms around the diamond and becomes a human robot and the diamond becomes his heart. The robot man shoots golden tickets out of himself because he is also a ticket-making factory. People start to find the tickets on the ground. They show them to the news and learn the ticket gets them a free trip to Las Vegas. But the tickets are magic and turn the people who found them into robots, too. Once they get to Las Vegas they start covering the city in popcorn.
The Human Light Bulb who got his powers in a lightning storm created by another superhero Lightning Strike, two hundred years ago, showed up. He created a thunder cloud that zapped the robots burying the city and turned them back into humans. He zapped the popcorn to clean the city. He also zapped the robot man that came from the egg, who fell apart. His diamond crystal heart was put in the museum and the parts of the robot were used to make new robots. The new robots, along with the farmer, helped repair the city and protect it from then on. Everyone lived happily ever after.
The end.
