The War, The End, Today, and The Future Chap. 2

The War, The End, Today, and The Future
Chapter 2

When Me and Sons Come Home

My sons and I are marching through the fields to get to the ashes that used to be our house. Then we marched proudly to my sons' aunt's house. This is what happened when we got there. My wife ran to us crying tears of joy. Happy that WE were alive. She told us what happened when we left. Here is the conversation: "Oh I am so happy you are all alive!" "And by the way boys you three are in big trouble! Especially you John. You were suppose to stop your brothers from sneaking out to join the war, because you are the oldest. But instead you snuck out to join the war too!" "BOYS YOU TOLD ME THAT YOUR MOTHER TOLD YOU TO JOIN THE ARMY IN THE DARK SO THE BRITISH DID NOT SEE YOU!!! SO YOU ARE IN EVEN MORE TROUBLE FOR LYING!!!" "Oh boy. RUN!!!!" "Now everybody CALM DOWN!!!" Then it went silent. After a few moments of silence their aunt said, "Good now let's all have cookies." while we ate cookies this NEW conversation went on: "Well I start my job tomorrow." And the boys and I start working in the field tomorrow." "These next few years are going to be tough." But if we pray maybe just maybe some where in the future things will get better for All of us."

The War, The End, Today, and The Future

Chapter 1
The Letter of the War

Here is the letter I wrote to my wife:

Dearest Shaylee,
This was the most horrifying experience in my LIFE!! First thing that happened is that happened during the war was that some men and I were in this small group that ambushed some of the small British groups. Some of the things I witnessed were indecent men being shot, our men AND their slicing and stabbing each other to the death. The things I smelt were disgusting. I smelt blood, decaying bodies gun powder, and smoke from fires. I barely survived the war. But this was just the beginning. Then the real war starts. It was like taking turns, so it was colonies shoot then the British shoot. I also witnessed peoples legs being torn right from under them by cannonballs. Now I think on July 4th I will think about how we won our freedom and celebrate like everyone else. There is going to be a WHOLE LOT of work to do thanks to the British armies. Luckily all of our sons our alive. By the way Mary sent that letter from her to me. I have one question why did you NOT mention our three sons? Anyway I have to get a job and you and the boys have to grow more plantation. We are going to use the money we have to get our land back and to be able to get the supplies we need to build a house.

Off To War

Dear my most trustworthy friend Mary, my husband has been one of the men who chosen to fight in war against King George and his wretched army! It is a most terrifying and saddest day of my life! I am so sorry if your son or husband has gone to war! He is spending his last few days preparing for war. Yesterday I heard a knock on the door. When I answered it it was... John Adams! That's when I was excited. John Adams asked if he could speak to my husband. I told him he was out in the the field with my most kind voice I could choke out. While John Adams went talk to my husband I started to think about the things that led to this war, like the Boston Tea Party. The Boton Tea went a little over board, but at least it got the British to take off the taxes on tea. After John Adams left, my husband told me that he was randomly chosen to fight in war so we colonist can have our independence.Just like in Common Sense by Thomas Paine. I feel grateful for some of the things that led up to this war and I am also mad that happened!!!! One things I am happy that happened was the Boston Tea Party, because there are no more taxes on tea. The one thing I am mad about that happened was the Stamp Act, because the British started putting exspencive taxes on everything. Right now he is doing everything he ever wanted to do... Which would be pranking the British soldiers. Why can't there be just peace plain paece?!? Anyway what he did the last two days he went cliff diving, and pranking British soldiers. Don't ask me why he wants to prank British soldiers. I am feeling anger and RAGE about this WAR, because we are at the perfect spot in life and now this!! Then this war just appeared out of no where!! The war is interupting the perfect time in life. Please try to write back soon!

Your dear friend,
Shaylee

P.S. Curse King George and his wretched army!!!

Day #7 as a West African Slave

I am now this creepy, no good ship! It is very creepy and cramped. This is sending me off the edge! This dead person is still on me! I am furious, repeat FURIOUS!!! This horrible boat is crawling with lice, rats, and different deadly sicknesses. The splintery wooden floor is covered with blood and mucus. The Europeans FINALLY threw that dead dude over board. I can still smell the stench of death. I can feel the boat rocking back and forth, back and forth. Many wanted to starve themselves, but if they tried their lips would get burned by the Europeans. I have seen many try. It is so sad. I WANT to get OFF of this no-good ship!

Day #1 as a West African Slave

It is in 1700's, I am walking in this grassy field. My feet are killing me. I am chained to this person who had died early this morning. This I find particularly gross. My head is itching with lice. I hate having to walk miles for nothing, but work and pain. The grass has blackberry thorns all through out the field. All I can smell is the stench of death. Most of us have tried to escape, but what is the point we are all chained together. Any of us who have tried have been whipped. The sound of people being whipped. It is horrifying! If it weren't for those Europeans trading guns to our enemy, I would not be here! I fell anger, sadness, curiosity, and frightened. I just want to go back to my tribe.

Shaylee X5

In the year 2030, there was a scientist named Jacob who was about to give up on the project Shaylee, when he got an idea on what to use as a heart and a brain. Her heart was the only thing powerful enough to generate such amazing project. Her heart would be a piece of plutonium kryptonite. Her brain would be a super computer chip, but to get the heart and the brain to work he would need one bolt of lighting. Luckily it storming. You could hear the thunder roaring, as the lightning hit the ground. He put his creation on chains and lifted her in the sky. Lighting struck her. That was plenty of power. In the morning she had awoke. She went to take a stroll as a normal girl. Then she saw this amazing place. It was the car dump. She loved all the pieces and parts. She met a creature called a zing.
Zing's bodies change colors with their mood. At the moment she was a rainbow, meaning that it was frightened.
Shaylee X5 said, "It's OK little buddy.
The zing still a little frightened said, "H-hello."
"My name is Shaylee.", Shaylee X5 explained.
The zing said, "My name is Alex."
She was going to get a slice of pizza for her and Alex, when she met Maya.
Shaylee X5 said,"Hey."
Maya wondering who was saying that said, "Who said that?!?!?!?"
Shaylee X5, "I did."
Maya, "Ohhhh... Then hello.
Shaylee X5,"Let's grab a slice of pizza and go to the car dump."
Maya, "Okay."
Maya was a creation too. Did I mention Shaylee X5 has a pet zing named Toy. Maya, Alex, Shaylee X5, and Toy went to the car dump. They went to look at the "Car Crusher", but it just shreds them. They were all behind Shaylee X5, so one bumped in one another it pushed Shaylee X5 off the edge!!! Someone had left the crusher on!
Maya and Alex, "OH-NO!!!!!"
Toy, "Woof!"
She was about to be shredded up when she got so scared that all of sudden she started flying!?!?!?!?!
Shaylee X5, "Wow! This is awesome!"
That is the moment she had figured out she was a robot. She was amazed. Maya flew up beside her. Shaylee X5 started practicing her powers, which were super strength, sonic hearing, rocket boots, and blasters. She was practicing when the FRG{Federal Robots Group} saw her! They analized her without letting her know. They found the heart of Shaylee X5. They wanted the heart. They left to tell their boss which is Dr. Mole, a circus ring master tried to catch Shaylee X5. She saw him trying and he succeeded, because when she saw him he was already catching her. She was took to a circus where robots fight each other, but she refused. So when she saw every robot who were facing up to her all she did was blast them with one blast and the were destroyed. She was finally done and she flew up to the ring master and took his keys so she could leave. Maya, Alex, and Toy were waiting for her. Then Dr. Mole sent out a command that he wanted to be ruler of the world. He also said who ever did not bow down to him will be put in jail.
Shaylee X5, "You know we are going to have to stop him right?"
Alex and Maya nodded.
Toy, "WOOF!"
They went up to Dr. Mole's liar. They got passed the sucurity system thanks to Maya.
Shaylee X5 whispered, "We have to sneak up to the top floor."
They reached to the liar. Alex and Toy confused Dr. Mole with
their colors by mixing them up and Maya and Shaylee X5 took him to jail and he went crazy. They finally got rid of the problem.

Tearing Off Labels

There is a down side to labels. Some of these "labels" are negitive. People {my mom, dad, and friends} like that I am smart, helpful, and that I have good heart. I like that I get good grades, big heart and brain. I have had labels put on me, some were negitive some were positive. One was brat and it was put on me by my step brother. I really don't care about that label and that's pretty much the only negitive label and I have already ripped off that label. The positive ones are that I am smart, good friend, and helpful. I think I got my labels cause I help alot.:) I get all A's. I love being a good friend. My step brother was not in a good mood when he gave me the label brat. Living up to bad labels will just get into being a hotdog man, who lives in a broke down taxi. On the other hand living up to good labels will get you a great job and a beautiful house.

My Day Off {Fair Day}

My day was the most awful day ever. Try sitting in a house while your brother has a 24 hour stomach bug. Every time somthing hit his stomache threw up. Any way we just sat around watching random, but awesome tv shows. For lunch we ate delious Jack in the Box.My brother looked terrible and awful.We didn't do much. So it was the most boring, awful, gloomy, and disturbing day ever!!!I ate delious chicken strips, yummy curly fries, and amazing Dr. Pepper.If I could change that day I would make it the most awsome, amazing, crazy, surpising, interesting, and so much more.That as you could picture it was disgusting, disturbing, awful day ever. Never get a terrible stomach virus. So anyway we had dry, delious, amazing.

Future Quest Lesson #1

If people could be honest, respectful, and trustworthy we would be in a peaceful environment. In the future being disrespectful will NOT, I repeat NOT get you into a great collage. If your not honest, how could collages trust you. If your not honest then your not trustworthy. Anyway my ultimate goal is to get into Harvard!!!

Why Are Plants And Algae Important in an Aquarium???

My Answer:

I think that the answer is that plants AND algae keep the water clean and provide oxygen for the fish and other aquatic animals. So, next time you think that plants{Elodea, Algae, duckweed, and ect.} are just pretty, then your wrong they are important. They provide air for animals and us.

Ecosystems-How we depend on each other

I loved putting the ecosystems together!!! The only things I disliked about it is that we have to deal with crickets. I learned that Mosquito Fish are very territorial. I observed that our female mosquito fish fought off a fry.{a baby mosquito fish} I also noticed that crickets are very chatty. I love animals, that's what got me excited about the science project.
