The Mexican Monkey

On July 4Th, it was perfect weather out for Independence Day. It was sunny, clear skies, and zero percent rain. A kid named Alex was just playing with his friends when he saw trees falling over in the distance. Alex was extremely puzzled. All of a sudden out of nowhere a monstrous monkey got catapulted high up in the sky and then it smacked the ground. The monkey stood up and punched someone so hard they flew into the distance. "That dude is really grim," Alex exclaimed. The monkey was already twenty feet tall until he escalated to fifty feet. The monkey started to babble something in Spanish. "He's Mexican! We need a translator!" someone screamed. Next thing you know someone who was Mexican came to see what the monkey was saying. "He say that he loathes all of you," the Mexican guy said in his accent. "Great, the monkey is fifty feet tall and he hates us," another person said. "We all need to pitch in to abolish the monkey!" someone suggested. "Yeah!" the whole crowd agreed. "I'm not too optimistic about this call," Alex said. "I mean that's a giant character." The crowd begged Alex to help fight the monkey and he said yes. Everyone turned around to fight the monkey but the monkey was passed out. "HMM, the monkey's already dead," someone said. Everyone started to jump on the monkey in excitement but that roused the monkey to his feet. "He was only passed out, run for it!" Alex screamed. The crowd ran in a panic. They saw someone in a house who was trying to harbor them. "This is just a makeshift shelter. Once the monkey comes here you guys need to leave so the monkey doesn't eat me," the guy said. "Well you're such a brave fellow," Alex said sarcastically. "Hey I am in great agony, my dog just ripped up my favorite stuffed animal," he said. Yes, I'm an adult and I play with stuffed animals so don't even ask." "I denounce your cowardice," Alex said. "Oh, I'm so sorry. Cry me a river, build me a bridge, and get over it: and while you're at it, get out of my house!" the guy demanded. "I've got a plan," Alex said. After about ten minutes Alex found a giant banana. He waved around so much the monkey started to drool. Finally, Alex threw the banana into a tree with gorilla glue all over it. The monkey jumped into the tree and ate the banana. After he was finished he figured out that he was glued to the tree. The monkey squirmed and squirmed trying to get out but he was stuck. Alex called the army. The army came and tied the monkey to a rope connected to a helicopter. They dropped the monkey into the Pacific Ocean and he was never to be found again.

The NASA Rocket

"Don't forget to record the rocket launch today," Alan's dad reminded. "I won't," he answered. Alan and his dad were going to church on Sunday morning when they heard a big POP! The whole car dropped a couple of feet. Alan and his dad got out to see what happened. Someone played a dirty trick on them and put a bunch of nails on the road. "Teenagers these days," Alan's dad said. "When I was a kid it was a peaceful world." "I guess we're gonna have to sit here and wait for someone to drive by with spare tires," Alan said. "I guess you're right," Alan's dad said. They sat there for hours and hours until the ground started to shake. They heard a giant rumble. "It's the rocket, it's taking off!" Alan exclaimed. "It's not to far from here," Alan's dad said. "Maybe we'll see it." Next thing you know, approximately one hundred yards away they saw the rocket taking off with fire trailing behind. "Are there people on that rocket?" Alan asked. "There sure are," Alan's dad answered. They watched and watched and the rocket started to depart. Everything was looking great. The rocket disappeared into the distance. They couldn't see it anymore. "They're in space now, Alan," his dad said. "That's good to hear," Alan said. Four people drove by and they each gave Alan and his dad one spare. That equaled up to four. They put the new tires on and had to drive home because they missed church.

The Dreadful Fly Back

"You all packed up Chris?" Chris's dad asked. "Just got to find my shoes," he answered. "Never mind I found them." Chris and his dad had a great vacation and now they're packing up to come back home. Chris and his dad took a bus to the airport, got their tickets, and boarded the plane. "Well at least today is sunny," Chris's dad said. "That's for sure," Chris said. "Everyone fasten your seat belts and have a great flight back," the pilot said. Chris's seat started to shake and they took off in no time. All of a sudden Chris heard tap tap. "Don't tell me that was rain," Chris panicked. "Yeah, it was," Chris's dad answered. Out of nowhere a big roar went through the sky. "THUNDER!" A passenger screamed. Flash! A giant strike of lighting lit up the whole sky; then it started to make a huge tapping noise on the roof of the plane. "That's not rain, that's hail," Chris's exclaimed. Right after Chris said that the co-pilot came back to where everyone was sitting. "As you can see we are going through a major storm!" He shouted. "So I'm going to ask you to please put on your seat belts; it will be a bumpy ride." "Dad what's gonna happen?" Chris asked. "I don't know," he answered. "I just know we're going to be alright." Flash! Roar! More lightning and thunder struck. "Why won't it stop?!" Chris asked. Boom! More thunder roared. Flash! More lightning struck. "Everyone keep your seat belts buckled. We are one mile away from the runway," the pilot warned. "Chris, look outside," his dad said. "It's the runway!" Chris exclaimed. Flash! Boom! Chris was still looking out the window when he saw a giant flash of lightning right in his eyes. "AH!" He screamed. "What's the matter?" His dad asked. "Nothing I'm fine," Chris said. All of a sudden Chris was bouncing up and down from the successful landing. "We made it everyone, you're good to get off the plane and have a great rest of the day," the pilot said. Chris and his dad got a ride home and lived happily ever after.

The Plane Ride

"Come on!" "The clouds are black and we're flying today," complained Chris. "Don't worry, Chris, we'll get through the clouds fine," Chris's dad said, trying to cheer him up. Chris sighed. Chris and his dad arrived at the airport. After waiting two hours to get on their plane, they finally got their tickets and got in line to board the plane. Every step Chris took closer to the plane the more it made him feel sick to his stomach. "Alright, everyone fasten your seat belts and have a great flight," said the pilot. "Here we go," Chris's dad said. "You nervous?" "I'm terrified," Chris said. Chris's seat started to shake like there was a earthquake. "Alright, we're taking off. Make sure you have your seat belts on," the pilot said. "You think we'll make it through the clouds Dad?" Chris asked. "I know we will," Chris's dad said in a positive way. In no time, the plane was soaring through the air with no problems. It was just a peaceful ride and Chris and Dad got to where they were heading to.
