Alien Strike
ow you think, today is going to be exciting. We're going on a hike, and
its going to be fun. And, you tell yourself reasonably, we also get to camp
at Camp...Zooly? Oh well, I suppose it'l be a change from this horrible
sun! Boy was I wrong!
The sun beat down on us campers. " Great one Tanah," I said as my friend went sprawling across the ground, after she tripped on a rock. While we are trudging along, I might as well tell you more about myself. Well, firstly, my nam is Sarah Wilson. Tanah Sullivan, my friend's name, and I are in Grade 5. Tanah likes the same things as I do, like drawing and reading. Enough. We've reached our camp ( hurray! ). Anyway, then we went to sleep that night.
I woke to a strange noise that night. It sounded like a streak of loud lightning, only much louder. Curious, I crawled out of bed. As I looked out the window, I saw the most amazing sight I ever saw. Actually, it was kind of scary at first, but it had such friendly face, that I had to like him at first sight. If your wondering what it is, then if I tell you, then you will not believe me.
Okay. I'll tell you what it was. You can laugh...it was...I think..an alien. Stop. I only said I think. But I'm pretty sure. It came in an extremly, extra small jar, with rockets. I ran out the door, and picked the small jar up. It was quite heavy. Then I realized that it had the alien in it. But it was asleep.
The next morning, I remembered the strange things that happened last night. I tryed to remember if it was a dream, or it was real. I decided to see if I had the jar. And, surprisingly, it was not there. I spent the rest of the day looking for it. Then, feeling silly, realized that I must have been sleeping, and it was all a dream.
The next day we were due to do home. As we trudged home, I stud my toe on a hard rock. As I stared down, I realized that it was familiar looking jar too. It was the alien jar! But I knew then it wasn't the jar. I was disapointed, but then there was nothing I could do about it. I really wanted to keep that alien. After the holidays, I never saw it again.
Its the next holidays. We are going on that camp again. I wonder if there is any chance I could find... Oow! I studed my toe!
