The Time Machine By Maxfield Hamel One day an inventor got a little carried away. Well, he was building a time machine, but he forgot to put a button on it to bring him back to the time period he came from. By the way, his name was Jake. Then when Jake was done he of course tried it out, and he went in to the shining pod to go twenty thousand years in the future. But when he got twenty thousand years in the future, Jake’s time machine ran out of fuel, so he got out and looked around and saw a city about two minutes away. So he decided to go to the city to see if there was any fuel for the time machine, and when he got there, he found out that he could not afford any fuel at all, so he sat down to think and then he had an idea. His idea was to make the time machine solar powered. So he went to see how much they cost and he had just enough to buy one panel. He plugged it in and he powered it up but then he found out that he had not put a button in to bring him home. So he went to two seconds before he left and when he got back he made a button to bring him home. The End

Time’s Up By Amelia Garey   Chapter 1 “I’m bored,” said Marcus. “Me too,” said Mia. “I feel like building something,” said Jenna. “I’ve got some metal and wire in my garage. Let’s make a robot,” said Marcus. “No,” said Jenna. “Too dangerous. It could destroy the town.” “Mmm.” “I know, let’s build a time machine,” said Mia. “Umm…” Marcus stammered. “I don’t know,” said Jenna. “Come on, please?” begged Mia. “Oh, okay,” said Marcus. They built a time machine, plugged it in, and lit it up. It had a color vortex and bright lights at the top. “One, two, three, jump!” screamed Mia. “Aaaaaaaah!” they all screamed. About three seconds later they felt rock on their faces. They looked up and realized that they were on a dinosaur’s back! “Don’t move a muscle,” said Jena. “Calm down, it’s asleep,” said Marcus. “Whew,” Mia sighed in relief. “I know!” Jenna said. “We could have been human stew,” said Mia. “Let’s get off this thing,” replied Marcus. “I’ve got a bad feeling about this,” said Mia. “Um, guys – run!” said Jenna. “Back to the time machine!” screamed Marcus. They got in the time machine and pressed random numbers because they were in a hurry. About ten seconds later they stopped. “What’s up with the machine?” asked Mia. “I think we broke down,” Marcus replied. “What?” stammered Mia and Jenna. “Let’s step outside.” They stepped outside and were amazed at what they saw. All they saw was a forest. In the sky was a flying bird. But the bird was looking at them and got hit by a plane. Then it fell on Marcus’ head. He screamed like a little girl. Chapter 2 “That was disgusting!” said Marcus. Mia giggled. “Ha ha ha, very funny,” said Marcus sarcastically. “Guys, I think you might want to turn around,” stammered Jenna. “What is it now, Jenna?” Mia asked angrily. “There is a goblin right next to us.” “Aaaaah!” screamed Mia. “Wait, I won’t hurt you, I promise!” said the goblin. “Who are you?” asked Marcus. “I’m, uh, Hambly Luvaury the Third,” said Hambly. “But you can call me Ham.” “I’m Marcus David and this is Mia Sullivan,” said Marcus. “I’m Jenna Regan Rachel,” said Jenna. “Oh,” replied Ham. “Well, you need to hide. My friend has a basement where you can hide. Come on! Let me give you a ride.” They knocked on the door. Another goblin showed up. “Hi, Ham. Who are they?” “Marcus, Mia, and Jenna,” said Ham. “Oh, well, I’m Jedie. Come inside,” said Jedie. “So, you’re after fuel? Well I know where to go; you have to go north. Keep on going north until you get to the fuel chamber.” Chapter 3 They got stuff packed. They got food, water, clothes, and tents. They set out on their journey. It took them three days to get there, but they got the fuel. “We finally got it,” said Marcus. “Now it’s going to take us three more days to get back,” said Jenna. “Not really,” said Jedie. Jedie whistled really loud and long. About ten seconds later a horion (a horse mixed up with a lion) came. Mia, Jenna, Marcus, Ham, and Jedia got on its back and flew back to the time machine. “Thanks,” said Marcus. “Don’t mention it,” said Ham. They set the time to 2008 and went home. The End

The Dragons By Logan Track Once upon a time there was a girl and she owned dragons. Her favorite dragon was named Bumble. Then one day there was a boy who came to the farm and he was there to have a camp on how to ride dragons. The next day it was time to ride the dragon. The boy picked out a dragon named Astro. It was for sale for $300, but he could ride it. Then it was time to take off. The boy had to wear goggles and a scarf. “If you want to turn right you pull your right leg back, and if you want to turn left you pull your left leg back. Okay, you can take off now!” “Wow, I’m actually riding a dragon! I can see everything from up here! It is so fun! But it’s time for landing already. I was having so much fun.” “How was your ride?” “It was great!” “I had a lot of fun on the dragon, can I do it again?” asked the boy. “Sure you can,” said the girl. “Go pick out another dragon to ride.” “I’ll pick this one.” “Her name is Ma.” Then the boy didn’t want to ride and he went home.

The Night of the Dragons By Riley Grey and Samantha Hamel Once there was a dragon named Bugling. He was a purple and green dragon with purple eyes, but was a tiny dragon; in fact he was the smallest dragon in his family. He was a very friendly dragon. Bugling liked to look up at his father who was at least two times the size of him. His father was dark and light blue with sea-blue eyes. It was midnight and all the dragons were asleep. There was only one dragon who was a light sleeper. This dragon was Bugling. He heard something and then he heard it again. It sounded like footsteps on sand and dry leafs. He jerked awake and listened hard for the footsteps and then he saw them. It was the humans! They were getting closer and closer with each passing step! He had to wake up his father and tell him about the humans, but his dad was the heaviest sleeper on Dragon Island, so he had to wake up the other dragons before it was too late. The gunman was getting very close – too close! Who was that? Oh, it was Comidi, the silliest gunman of all. He held the record for accidentally shooting himself more times than anyone, and the closest he had ever gotten to shooting a dragon was a tree in the shape of a dragon. Bugling thought that this was a nightmare, but after all it was pretty fun to laugh at Comidi. Bugling decided to run to his sister Lilac. She was a light and dark purple dragon, almost as big as her father. Bugling and Lilac decided to wake up all of the rest of the dragons. They all ran to Bugling’s dad and pushed and shoved while screaming, “WAKE UP!” Finally after jumping on him three thousand times he woke up and yelled at everyone, “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?” And Bugling said, “Dad, it is Comidi!” And Dad said, “Oh, in that case…” They all went outside to see Comidi holding a gun the wrong way. The Dad stomped to Comidi and said, “This is the end of you Comidi!” And Comidi said, “Not so fast mister, this is supposed to be YOUR end!” And Comidi pulled the trigger and BANG. The bullet hit Comidi and he fell over dead. All the dragons whooped and cheered. As they walked back Lilac cheerfully started to laugh and Bugling just as cheerfully added, “That is the end of Comidi!” The End

Black Dragon By Kaitlyn King Once upon a time there were two kids. Their names were Shawn and Katie. One day none other than the black dragon came to their village. He attacked and left. After that Shawn and Katie decided that they would go after the dragon. Everyone told them not to go, but they didn’t listen. They went the next day. They walked for miles. They needed supplies to fight the dragon. Finally they came to a blacksmith. He gave them two swords and two sheaths. Then they were on their way. They walked night and day for many miles. They started to wonder what was ahead. Their journey was only beginning. Not long after that they came to a forest. They went right in. They were afraid but they overcame their fear. There were many scary things. They climbed the highest trees and were chased by snakes and much more. They jumped over rocks. They saw many monkeys and many bugs. They walked and walked for many days through the cold and the rain. Now they were very hungry. They saw one bush and one tree. The bush was a blueberry bush and the tree was an apple tree. They both picked fifty blueberries and three apples, then they were on their way. They drank all of their water on the way, and searched and searched for more. Soon they got out of the forest and came to a large river with a great current. So great that if they fell in they would be pulled away until they got to the waterfall. So they were very careful about jumping. Fortunately they both got across. After that they came to a high grassy field. Katie said, “The grass is way too high.” Shawn said, “We can do it!” So they took out their swords and started cutting the grass. There were many cows in the field. When they got out of the field they walked for miles and miles and days and days, until they came to a rocky beach. They knew what they had to do. They went deep into the mangrove trees. They found many branches to turn into a boat. It took them a while to figure it out. As soon as they finished they pushed it into the water. It was a cold, rainy night. The waves pushed and pulled. Many other nights were the same until the biggest storm in the history of storms. They got knocked right out of their boat and they swam for miles. They needed food and drink so they learned how to catch fish. So much for the water. The next river was a thousand miles away. While they were swimming they were attacked by a pack of sharks. They reached for their swords but Katie dropped her sword into the ocean. She was holding her breath and then she went under the water. She finally came up. She was gasping for air. They killed the sharks. Then they got out of that dreaded ocean and before them was an island. There was plenty to eat and drink. There was coconut milk to drink and there were berries to eat. They made two houses out of leaves and sticks. It was a very nice island. But they had to leave. They took some coconuts and left. But before that they built a boat. After that they rode the waves. They tried to research where the dragon was. They figured out that the dragon might be in a huge cave. When they got to where they were going they got out of the boat and looked around. “It will be days before we find the dragon,” said Katie. For days they searched until they found him. He was in a huge cave, just like they said. He was ready to fight. Shawn and Katie took out their swords. It was a nasty fight. There was blood everywhere. When it was done, Shawn and Katie were hurt but the dragon was dead. Now everyone will be happy. Now Shawn and Katie can go home. The End
