Re: Writing Challenge


Ok here I go!
###

 
HI! My name is Ben. I'm going to tell you about one of the strangest adventures I have ever been on. It started one night when I looked out my window and saw a falling star. I wished I could go to Egypt. All of a sudden the star veered toward me and came falling with full speed to my room. I backed away from the window and watched it as it came in. It told me I could have my wish under one condition, I couldn't eat or sleep. I thought what a great idea. I could spend all my time looking at the ancient wonders, but little did I know how much this would effect me.
 
The next morning I woke up and found my self on a blanket in the middle of no where. Where could I be I thought. Then I remembered about my wish. I must be in Egypt I thought. I was so excited I started to run in all directions. Finally I calmed down, I started to wonder to myself where the pyramids could be. I saw a traveler in the distance and ran up to him. Where are the pyramids I asked him. He pointed me in a direction and I ran.
 
Finally I reached the pyramids. They were so cool. I looked around and was just awed by what the Ancient Egyptians did. Suddenly I started to feel so tiered. I tried to lay down, but my body wouldn't let me. Finally I shouted, "I wish I could go home!"
 
Almost instantly I found myself in my bed, in my room, and in my house. I was so happy I looked up at the sky and shouted, "Thank You!"

And to this day I've never traded the things I need to survive to get a wish again.
###

How's that. Not one of my best, it was just a wacky idea that came to me.

Hey I'll try,



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   Farkum woke up one day thinking what fun it would be to find a genie. "Ah well, genies are just mythical creatures, too bad," thought Farkum. When he was getting breakfast (some sort of really nutritious and utterly bad tasting cereal whose name he couldn't pronounce, chosen by his health nut mom.) "Man I wish I didn't have to go to school today."
   After breakfast when he was waiting for the school bus with his friends, a car came veering around the curb at 100 miles an hour. The car came at Farkum with incredible speed. Before he had a chance to jump out of the way another car came careening around the opposite bend ramming the first car. When the cars collided a piece of windshield came flying at Farkum; it hit him in the upper thigh.
   Knocked unconscious by the massive amounts of pain, he woke up in a hospital. "Where am I?" he tried to say but what came out was more like, "Gurgle, scratch, I."
   A nurse came rushing into the room saying, "Don't try to speak, it will only make it worse. I know what you are wondering why you are here. Well, all I can figure out from some of your friends is that two cars collided and a piece of windshield drove itself into your thigh, someone called 911 soon after, then we came as fast as we could." Farkum's leg hurt like, well like a piece of windshield was stuck in it. "how did that happen?" wondered Farkum.
  When Farkum woke up he had a splitting headache. "Urg," Farkum gurgled. His mother was obviously waiting for him to get up when he streched his mother came rushing in.
   "Oh, sweetie, are you alright? Of course your not all right, you have a windshield in your leg." "The police are working on finding the people who were driving the cars." His mother babbled. "Ohhhh, I wish I would stop feeling this." Mumbled Farkum. "What was that? Oh, never mind, you shouldn't be talking anyway, the doctor said." After his mother left and his Dad and his friends had come in the nurse said, "Farkum there is some one else to see you." A man with a large dark-green trench coat came trundling into the room, "I thought I would make you not fell your leg." Rumbled the man. "Oh, that would be wonderful." Grated Farkum. "OK, then," The man reached into one of the pockets in his trench coat, and drew out a small thing, that looked like a dagger!

Here's some more, hope you like it. emoticon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"This should draw the pain away from your thigh." Said the man as he plunges the dagger into my arm. Now your thinking why didn't you just yell and scream then some one was bound to come. Well a nurse told me that the room was sound proof, because when they had brought me in I was screaming like a banshee. So I knew it was useless to yell and scream. I still did it after the dagger left my arm. I don't feel my leg any more.
   About exactly 1.5 seconds after the man in the oversized trench coat left the nurse came streaming in with papers flying out all around her. Dont ask me why she was like that. "Oh dear, oh dear." That was all I heard, after that I passed into unconisouness. Oh yeah, I don't have to go to school. When I woke up both my leg and arm were throbbing. (I thought the nurse put pain killer in the IV.) The next few days consisted of pain, sleep, pain, sleep, ect.

   Well, I got out of the hospital about a month later and my wounds were healing up. I said it again, "Man, boy do I wish I was some where else and without these wounds." Well that was stupid, I learned later. In about 30 minutes I was eating mush - stuff that tasted like cardboard and assigned by the doctor. I heard a gurgling sound in my mush. "Gurgle, gurgle, Pa-loom! Sloop!" The gurgles were I don't know what, the Pa-loom was all my "mush" exploding, the "Sloop" was me turning into mush ( I have no idea how) and being sucked into the bowl, then black. When I came to I was obviously in a desert, there was nothing but sand every where I could see. "Great, now what?" I started walking in one direction. People say that the desert is hot, but that dosen't do it justice, it was scorching, if I had to guess about 100 degrees. I walked for what seemed like hours when I saw a tree, and a tree must mean a oasis! I ran full speed toward the tree. I came screaming into the lake and drunk my fill.
   A man with a .44 caliber stepped out from behind a tree. “Stay where you are.” Ordered the man. “O-o-o-o-ok.” I studdered. The man bound me against a tree. After sundown I was about to drop off when I heard a gruff voice saying, “No sleep, and no water and no food.”
   
  “Why?” I asked as a reflex. Suddenly the gun was at my head and the man was saying, “Don’t ask questions, just do.” So I did. At morning the man put me in the middle of the pool, and just left. Having figured out what I had done to get here I said, “I wish I was back home.” Then the pool heaved and the water slurped me up. I was back in my chair eating my mush, and no time seemed to have passed. I never said “I wish” again in my life.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
hope you like it.

Re: Writing Challenge


This morning I woke up. Now, you may be thinking that this is a strange thing to say, but it is true, and if you will listen, I can try and tell you the rest of the story, although it's going to take a while because... well, I'd better start at the beginning. I woke up. I noticed that my bed was much larger than usual and I began to wonder what was going on.

Somehow I managed to get off, hurting my leg in the process. But that was all right, I still had the other seven.

Wait... seven?

I looked in the mirror, as best I could.

Yep. I was a bug. A spider. A daddy longleg to be precise, although that probably isn't the scientific name for them.

I've been trying all morning to get my mom's attention, but she's been busy. So I'm currently jumping on the computer keyboard, in hopes that someone will come and help me.
