Original Stories
Flowers Will Not Grow Well Enough For My Mom To Like Them
by Kendyl, age 9, Indiana
My mom gave me a list of things to do well. She was gone and on that list it said to plant the flowers in the garden. I did and then I went inside and I went to bed. And then I got ready and went outside and the flowers were all slashed and I was in trouble. My mom was going to be home in 10 days, so I was going to be in trouble. I had to think of something fast to do and for plan A, I was going to find the same flowers. I could not do that because the bill would go to my mom. I moved to plan B which was to ask my mom if I can buy them, but I couldn’t do that because I would get in trouble. I moved on to plan C which was to water and that didn’t work out. I had to move on to plan D. Plan D was to glue it together, but that will make the problem worse. I left the garden alone and then the days went to 9,8,7,6,5 and there were only 4 DAYS till my mom got home from the Bahamas. I left it how it was and the days went down to 3 DAYS. I still left it how it was and so on to 2 and 1 DAY left till my mom got home. It went to 30 minutes, so I left it. And then 20 minutes and then 10 and 5,4,3,2,1, and then I got a message that said that the plane was in a storm, so I would not have to worry. Then I got very sad. Then, I got a message that said it was not that plane. I was fine, but the flower garden was still dead. I called my dad and I said not to tell mom that the flowers had died, he did. NO!!! I am “cooked” when my mom gets home. She is so strict, and I only had about 2 hours, so I asked my dad if I could go to the store and get new flowers for the garden. He said yes and it would be fine. I will not get “cooked” by my mom.
The End
Breakdancing Knight
by Abel, age 12, Georgia
('Twas a bright spring morning, then some cool surf music played, "what does that sound?!" Yelled a random bystander. Then they saw that it was Bobby Drake, the knight (who also moonlights as a breakdancing instructor). Bobby Drake was walking along a dirt road, when he came to a small town called pastry. It was there that he met his second cousin (twice removed) Jackson Samuel the fourth. before he could talk to him, the king of the neighboring Kingdom, Mr. salty, the invincible, came to conquer them! He brought forth his… Breakdancing army! "I will only go away–"said Mr. salty–"if one of you can beat my best soldier at breakdancing!"
"We can never defeat him!" yelled a random villager. "I will!" Yelled Bobby Drake. "Who must I fight?"
"My best soldier, Johnny the awesome!"
(scene change–the breakdancing courtyard)
"By right of awesomeness," – king salty started –" johnny shall go first." (Johnny unleashes an amazing breakdancing number.)
"Your turn." Said Mr. salty.
(Bobby Drake unleashes an even better breakdancing number)
"I have been defeated!" Said Mr. salty.
