I had a sleepover with my friends Felix and Steven. When Steven got here, I shot him with a nerf gun, and he glared at me. Then we made a fort. When Felix got here, he gaped in surprise. Then my sister, Glenna, knocked the fort down. She was snickering at us. ''Oh great!'' I muttered. “It was just a fluke!'' she said. Soon my mom sent Glenna to bed and made us a treat. She’s legendary at making tasty treats. We were stunned at how good it tasted. It was better than good! Then I flinched and bumped into her. ''Ooops!'' I said.
It was Saturday. I woke up early. I went on a stroll. I brought a soda. It was a Super Sizzle from Speedway. As I was leaving the store, I saw a criminal surrender himself. ''IT WAS A FLUKE!!!'' he said. When I got home, I picked a particular pack of chocolate, peanut clusters. Then my mom told me to clean our windows. I got them to be sparkling clean.
It was Sunday. I craned my neck so I could see my sister eating pancakes. I was in fury. I stomped to the dining room and asked, ''Why didn't you wake me up?!''. ''I wanted to let you sleep,'' my mom said.' ' Well, O.K. then,'' I replied. After we went to church, I played Minecraft. Soon my sister found out what I was doing and said in a stern voice, “Let me play!''. ''No!'' I answered. Then my sister said, ''Mom, Riley isn't letting me play!” ''Stop accusing him,'' she said solemnly. ''Can I have a cookie?'' I said. ''No!'' my mom said. I averted my eyes from her. My sister tried to hit me, and I cringed. Then I interrogated my mom because I wanted a treat.
I was in my dad's car when suddenly a deer ran across the road. My dad swerved to avoid the deer, but we crashed into a tree! Luckily, this was only a dream. When I woke up, I said to myself, "That was a terrible dream!" Then I went to the basement and saw the renout. I darted towards it. Soon my sister pounced on it. "HEY!!!" I yelled. "I want it!” my sister said. "Fine," I said. After that we went to the Wisconsin State Fair. My dad said that I was responsible enough to get myself a treat. I was attentive enough to get both my dad I a nice treat! After I bought both treats, I had to jostle myself through the crowd. When we got home, I was contradicting my mom because she misspelled a word.

Evil Spirit Cast Out! By: RIley Kubicki
Breaking news!
Today in Capernaum a person who is believed to be the coming Messiah drives out an evil spirit! This is the story: On the Sabbath day a man starts to teach in the synagogue. Suddenly another man who is controlled by an evil spirit started to yell and scream very loudly. The first man stood up and said, “ Get out of him!” Then the evil spirits let out a loud shriek. That man collapsed. Everyone was amazed. The first man is Jesus Christ, the Messiah.

I ran through the jungle with Jacob Nault because there was a panther chasing us. We soon had to climb up a tree where I got tangled in the vines. Jacob luckily untangled me. Then I surged through the jungle, running hard until we found a nearby village. The villagers were inspecting us for weapons. Then I got a new shirt because my other one was too taut. I needed a larger shirt! Later I rumpled a math test up because I had gotten a bad grade on it. I know I should not have done that! This was all a lot of work, and I was really getting thirsty. I was reluctant to get water, but I did. Then something lurked behind me. The whole area resounded with noise. "AHHHH!!!!!!" I yelled… (to be continued)

I ran for my life. Something was coming right at me, but I could not identify what the creature was. "JACOB!!!!!!!" I yelled. I was almost there when I soon heard, "AHHH!!!".
The creature bit me, and I fell to the ground. I was bleeding. It looks like it would be the end of me. Suddenly a villager shot a gun in the air, and the creature ceased biting me. "You were so deceptive and slick," I said. "I thought man-eating lizards didn't exist in this area. That creature was fierce!" I said. I was impressed that the villager took the time and effort to save me.
I went home to keep in touch with Jacob. Then I drew on a piece of paper to help me remember what the lizard looked like since I didn’t have my cell phone to take a picture. Even though I was nervous, my fingers were very nimble and I drew a good picture of what the lizard looked like.

RING!, It was time to leave school. Steven and I walked down the hall together. We had a strong bond with each other. We were close friends. The next day while I was walking to school, I was drawing on my notepad when something inspired me. My drawing was unique and delicate. It turned out to be very special. When I got to school, I noticed a spider with 100 baby spiders following it. The school was completely infested with spiders! I preserved my drawing in my backpack and I told Steven about the spiders. Later, I saw them all again! I hope this won't happen in intervals. One day was enough! After school I went to see the Milwaukee Flyers. They were so flexible in all their moves! Today was a great day.

11-12-2018 The Story of My Death and Coming Back to Life Riley K.
Hi, my name is Jack, and this is the story of when I died and when Jesus brought me back to life. This is how it happened:
I had a sickness, and I died. Some time passed, and I heard a voice. That person said, “Young man get up!” So my heart started to beat again. I started to breathe. I got up and started talking with the people who were planning to bury my body. This man who spoke to me led me to my mother, and everyone shouted, “PRAISE GOD!!!” This is the story of my death and coming back to life.

It was a normal day in Brookfield. I woke up and went to school. Then something crazy happens! Something flew through the sky and crashed into my school! It was a U. F. O. (an unidentified flying object). With some sort of force, I was lured towards it. Then I noticed that the aliens in the spaceship were predators to humans. I saw in disgust as the creature ate one of our kids here at school. I ran as fast as I could to avoid the aliens. When I reached the school’s lower level, I said to my friend Felix. "Aliens are real, and I’, going to prove it!", but Felix was deceptive. I ran up a flight of stairs where I saw a baby alien. I ran from it. The baby alien mimicked my every move and sound. So I ran to tell Steven. From the expression on his face, it was obvious that he too had seen the crash. So we both ran to find the baby alien. When we found it, its skin was moving. It really resembled and looked like me. It had a lot of my own traits. Then something crept up behind me. "AHHH!!!" I yelled... (to be continued)

I was walking down the street in our small village when dust hit me. This revelation immediately revealed to me that Mount "Vantonga" was in the middle of eruption! It had become an active volcano again. I ran as fast as I could. I immediately saw a burning ball of rock hit our town’s zoo! This explosion allowed the animals to constantly run out of the zoo! Unusually the dust carried me right up to the top edge of the volcano where I can easily see into the depths of the volcano. Then a second ball of flaming rock flew out of the volcano. This eruption was gradually contracting. Even Though it was shrinking, it was coming right toward me... (to be continued)

12-6-2018 The Volcano Part 2
“AHHH!!!” I screamed. A ball of burning rock was coming right for me! "HA HA HA!!" my friend Felix scoffed. "That did not happen".
"Just let me finish!" I said. So anyway, “NOOO!!” I yelled, Then the dust stopped, and I fell down and down. BEEP, BEEP, I woke up in the hospital where the doctor said that I was lucky to be alive. When I left, I thought that the town would be altered forever. The volcano was dangerous and extremely treacherous. When I got home, I was in drudgery because I couldn’t run or play. I was discouraged that my leg and arm would never heal. Then something crazy happened, On the news I heard that Dr. Athen fell into the volcano! I skeptically shook my head. Why would someone do that!? Later my friends said they saw doctor plunge into it. My friends took me to the volcano so we could see the dead Dr. Athen and to see that the volcano was smoldering I leaned a little too close over the edge, and I fell in!!! "RILEY!!!!" my friends yelled.

WARNING: What you are about to read may give you nightmares for a while. (Riley Kubicki will not take any responsibility!)
I was riding on the bus. It was just a normal day, but little did I know that today would be a day I would never forget. When I got to school, I saw a hermit-looking person. He was timid because he was hiding under the bench. I went to my classroom where I saw a very big crack in the wall. I thought it was very strange and peculiar. So I went and sat down at my desk. Nobody was there. So I went to the lunchroom. There I saw a dead man lying in the middle of the floor! Weird things kept happening in front of my eyes. I went to see the man. I got caught in a net! This net was quite drab in color. Inside the net it seemed that there some“thing” that had white eyes. This “thing” crept up to me. I was trembling in fear. I got out of the net and dashed away. I soon saw a spider that fascinated me. It was a black widow! It bit me, and I fainted…(to be continued)

After I was bit, I was dragged by about fifty spiders from their web to even a bigger web. Their web was huge! It was about the size of a school bus. When I woke, I saw the “thing” that first bit me. It had turned from a black monster to a giant spider!!! Now it seemed to me that it was going to eat me! Then I saw it. A knife was right behind me so I grabbed the knife and stabbed the beast. Then I forged my way out of its hand and I took off. When I got about a half a mile from it, I saw a spider. This time I didn't take any chances. I trampled over it. Then I saw a very, very, very ,very, very, very big barrier. It was a huge container, and inside it I saw millions of people. Each person had the shape of a perfect sphere of a SPIDER WEB!! Something weird is is going on, I thought.
Then I saw two people in a hidden cave. One was tinkering with an invention, and the other one looked like a hoaxer that was trying to trick me. I decided to go right to them. I went to meet them. After we talked, we started a quest to stop this... (to be continued)

... monster that can change its shape at will. The three of us (Jeff the inventor, Jenny the hoaxer, and myself thought that we had to protect ourselves and save the world from this monster. I was a fourth grade student who accidentally just ran into the other two. The last time you heard from us, we were in a very cool, hidden cave. It was outside of the force field where the web was. We tried to get the people out of the web that was holding them in place. For some reason the hoaxer vanished, but she was just being mischievous, or was she?
Then we heard a scream. We ran toward Jenny. We soon saw a trail of blood leading to the school (remember the school is the "thing's" lair). There I saw something unusual and exotic. A killer unicorn was moving gracefully toward us. It chased me, caught me, and then captured the inventor! Next I saw something brilliantly bright. It was so bright that it almost blinded my eyes! It was landing. Aliens were attacking! Then I saw a gun with the initials of my ancestor J.K.. With that gun I shot all the aliens...

"There are too many!" I said. My gun was all out of ammo and there was a bountiful amount of aliens. My intentions were to run so I ran away as fast as I could. The aliens were relentless though and chased after me. It took awhile to get away from them. It was interesting that I inadvertently discovered my ancestor’s gun. It was hidden in one of our family’s trunks. My stature was perfect for hunting. The gun would be very helpful for protection.
It was getting dark so I went to sleep. Later that night I was roused awake. I didn't know what woke me up. Then I saw a resourceful person who tried very hard to help me, but it is every man for himself. When he offered, I took his amo for the gun. There was vast supply of bullets.
"Oh no,” I screamed. “Not that, anything but that"...

…”Jeff is dead!" I was distressed I had to leave and find the hoaxer that was trying to deceive me. I went toward the school. When I got there, I saw the "thing", and it was more powerful than ever. It did not look that magnificent though. It seemed so common looking. I had to defeat it! I ran right at it and shot it, but I didn't cause any damage. Then I saw a green spot on its forehead. That area on its head must be its weak spot so I confidently shot right at that spot on its forehead, and it exploded!!!! I won! Then I looked back and saw all the people falling out of the webs! I anxiously hoped that the hoaxer survived. "And that’s my story of how I saved the world," I said. "What happened to the hoaxer? I don't know," I insisted.
Riley’s son watched all this happen right in front of his eyes. "I'm going to save the world too," Riley Jr. gloated.
"I don’t know about that, son," I replied. "Remember that you’re only five years old!"

It was a Sunday morning at 1670 S. Spring Dr. It was the year 2039. I was having breakfast when suddenly, BOOM!!!! A bomb blew up right outside my house! I quickly snatched a gun and hurried outside. (I am very good at using guns!) I noticed that the street I lived on was empty. It was a small town that consisted of a few businesses and homes, Actually I live in the middle of nowhere. I intend to win this war, but it won't be easy. I selected a car to use for shelter I recall the time that I fought in WWIII...no is WWIV! Then I saw a man who looked so prideful. He was shooting everyone! I had to team up with him, I crept up to him and asked, “Hey! Want to team up?” “No, I am the king of war! I go solo!” he replied. Yep! He is prideful I thought. BOOM!!!! Another bomb exploded! Right before he planned on shooting me. I safely got out of there… (to be continued)

It was just a normal Monday morning. I was on the bus headed for school when something crazy happened! The bus was picked up off the road and lifted into the air!!! And then I realized: A TORNADO WAS THROWING THE BUS IN THE AIR!!!!!!!! "AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" my friend Lucas yelled. I tried to comfort Lucas, but my efforts did not help. It was at this moment an alien ship flew at lightning speed and took our bus to its home planet. Fortunately it was a short journey.
After we arrived, the alien informed us, “You can not be seen on this planet so I will turn you into a humotron.” (That's what the aliens call themselves.) After we were transformed, I went to see my friend Steven, but I did not recognize him at all! I was about to burst in excitement because I know that aliens exist! Later my friends and I huddled to talk. "I don't trust them," Felix said.
"Well, they really are aliens!" Steven exclaimed.
"Felix is right," I said. "We can't trust them!"
"Let's go walk around," Steven suggested so we did.
We discovered a cave.
In this cave there were three doors. We heard a voice. "You can pick one door. You will have three opportunities to pick the right one and get a reward. Pick a wrong door, and you will die.”
Unfortunately, the door to the cave shut so we had no other choice but to pick a door so we picked door # 2 “AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!” we yelled… (to be continued)

"We picked the wrong door!!!!" Felix said.
"We’re gonna die!!!" I yelled. I fidgeted by walking back-and-forth all around the room. I saw Lucas in the corner of the room, and he looked forlornly. He seemed so sad. I had a suspicion, however, that Lucas was trying to trap us. Then I saw a speaker right by him!!!! I quickly looked away from him. The next time I looked back, he was gone!!!!!!!!!
"Oh no!" I said. Then I saw a hi-tech suit hanging in the closet. I went and put it on. Felix and Steven also put one on too. Then ran to the lava fields. "Riley NO!!" Steven responded, “I just jumped into the lava, and I am fine.
"Guys! The suits are lava proof!!" I yelled. So we dove into the lava and explored. Later we saw a door and opened it, "FREEDOM!!!!!!" we yelled. Then I saw Steven go back into the lava. Felix was so calm about this whole incident. I think that Felix is the most noble of our group.
Soon I saw the school bus that picks us up. I saw money in it! Felix beat me to it, "Can we share?"
I asked. "No" Felix was being stingy I thought. Then I started scrounging around the bus for some food, but I did not have any luck. Then I resolved to find Steven. An alien dragon appeared out of nowhere. It tried to protect me, but he got eaten. Well, that was pathetic I thought. That was a poor attempt to help me. That allowed the dragon ateto eat me.
I woke up. “Wow! That was a crazy dream!” I said.

"Oh great!" I said. "Not again!" I have a bucket load of homework, again, and I mean it's an actual "bucket" load of homework. I took a metal bucket, and I put all my homework in it. Thankfully, the bucket is huge! I don't think I can withstand lifting it, not to mention completing the homework! It weighs so much! Nothing that I have for homework is suitable or useful for my life!
But I have a plan, a plan to not have homework at all. It's easy; I’ll just run away. I will run away to the forest and live there. It won’t be just any forest, it will be “The Jungle”. It is a remarkable place, or at least that is what I have heard. I will have to be careful, stealthy, and alert because this jungle forest is populated with a lot of dangerous animals. But since I am only a 4th grader, I will have an advantage because I'm smaller than most dangerous animals. It will be easier for me to blend in with the surroundings. I also will have a friend who will help me, Jacob Nault. He is my best friend and he wants to run away soon too. We know that we will have to extract the DNA of a panther to inject it into my body. A panther’s DNA will allow me to run faster. That would give me two advantages, speed and a small size.
I had to capture and control a panther to extract its DNA. You will probably hear about jacob and I in the news. (I was wrong) Two hours later (this is the next story: I ran through the jungle with Jacob Nault because there was a panther chasing us... (go to the 6th and 7th storys to see what’s next)

"Oh great!" I said. "Not again!" I have a bucket load of homework, again, and I mean it's an actual "bucket" load of homework. I took a metal bucket, and I put all my homework in it. Thankfully, the bucket is huge! I don't think I can withstand lifting it, not to mention completing the homework! It weighs so much! Nothing that I have for homework is suitable or useful for my life!

I was in our laboratory. We were to the brink of making a huge discovery. We had spent years trying to perfect our version of A TIME MACHINE!!!!! It was a very complicated contraption. My fellow scientists had earlier picked me to be the first to test if our time machine actually worked correctly. I felt eerie about being the first. What if it didn’t work? What if I would never come back to our present time?
I have always wanted travel back in time and see the creatures that once roamed the earth. I bravely entered the machine. I moved a few dials and push a few buttons. It went ZAP! I felt that I had moved somewhere...but where? When I stepped out of the time machine, I saw something massive and elegant. It was a dinosaur!! It was a Stegosaurus. I knew that it’s a herbivore that has armored skin.
Since I was right by the shore, I saw something submerged deep in the ocean. It was a another very large carnivorous reptile, a Mosasaurus!! They swim in ocean! Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) it was swimming right toward me! "I've got to go!" I said...so I ran.
There were even more problems. Different obstacles were now blocking my path. Then, I heard, “RAWR!!” A very fierce, carnivorous Tyrannosaurus Rex appeared. Now this T-rex was blocking my path to return to the time machine. Would I be able to return to the present?

For my first pick for the Wonderful Wizard of Oz play, I would like to be the the guard at the gate of the City of Emeralds. I would like that part because 1) It is a cool part. 2) I would like a bigger part, and that is a good part. The guard would be my first pick.
My second pick is the Rich Munchkin. I would like that part because 1) It is a smaller part. (I might have stage fright). and 2) It will be at the beginning of the play. That would be my second pick.
Last but not least my third pick is the man with the broken leg because 1) It is another small part. 2) I will not have to move a lot on stage. That is my third pick for the the Wonderful Wizard of Oz play.

"Oh no!" I said, “the T-Rex is blocking my path!” A time machine brought me to a time when dinosaurs were not extinct. I saw an old, ancient rock near the shore of the river, and I threw it at the T-rex. It landed in its mouth and choked the dinosaur, but then the Mosasaurus came and swallowed the time machine hole! I ran as fast as I could. When I got into the woods, I saw a pack of raptors!!!!! There were sentries guarding their eggs. I saw an egg that was embedded in the ground. I waited for the raptors to go on a hunt for prey. When they did, I ran to the nest, used a rock to get it unstuck, and then ran back to my little cave.
Two years passed. I was weary of being away from my family. I wanted to go back to the present. I saw a bigger cave that was eroding away by a fast stream of water. As I took a drink from that stream, I saw a cascading waterfall!! I felt a cool rush of air coming into the cave. In the distance I could see in the distance a glistening, bright light. Was this light made by my fellow scientists coming back for me?

Ok, I have to check that out! I ran to the time machine where I met up with my group of scientists. We thought we were returning to the present time, but we could not believe our eyes! I was in the future!! We did celebrate with a feast. The meal was hearty and delicious. There was enough food to feed a behemoth!
"Welcome back," my old friends welcomes me cordially. We had a huge party in a colossal room. The next thing I knew, I woke up. This had just been an illusion Then I saw something scenic and beautiful. This must be fantasy. In a fanciful mood I saw a T-rex flying upside down! “DRYCHKVYCH!!!!!!!” it said. Then the mountain blew up. I got blasted into outer space, and I woke up. "Wow," I said.
