The HUGE Flower Garden

By Nathan

Once upon a time, there was a flower garden. But not an ordinary one, it had little, medium, and big flowers, until a flower had done something wrong. One month later, we couldn’t see the top! It was huge! But one little boy named Martin wanted to see what was at the top. Martin always wanted to be famous by discovering something, because he also wanted to be a scientist.

People can build up in Prodigy to the highest point, they have probably seen the top… But Martin couldn’t. He was not rich with money, but with wood. He built a ladder but it wasn’t that high, But there were thin vines that looked like stairs he could step on. He stepped on one and it snapped right off of the flower! So he stayed close to the flower, and did not step on the edges. He was in the clouds, and he thought it was fog. He couldn’t see anything! He was so scared that he thought he was going to fall, and…

HE DID! He fell straight down to the ground! But when he opened his eyes, he wasn’t on the ground, he was stuck in the cloud! He was swimming up to the very top of the cloud like he was in a swimming pool! But he knew he couldn’t breathe or see in a swimming pool, so he went fast to the top and closed his eyes! He could have breathed in the cloud but he didn’t! He thought he was going to die. Until he came to the other side where the flower was to get air. Then he opened his eyes and looked down. HE FREAKED OUT AND SCREAMED LIKE HE WAS KIDNAPPED! He woke everybody up. But even if they looked up at the flower, none of them could have seen him! So he jumped back in the clouds and swam to the very top and popped out of the cloud. And he thought to himself, “How could I swim through the floor?”

Then at the very top, was the flower head, space right above him, and a huge house. He knew his parents must have been worried. He looked up in space and saw some space aliens having an unrelated tea party. Then he looked at the house and wondered, “If that looked like a barn, it would be like Jack and the Beanstalk.” There was a giant in the house who just woke up. Probably by his screaming... His name was Ben. He was running away from Ben without making any noise that the giant could hear. “I am not scared, or at least not THAT much...” That is what he would have said, but not true, he was scared to death! On the giant wood he was standing on had spaces between each one, it was fun jumping over it. He saw a chest and a mice hole. First, he explained what was going on to the mouse and got some cheese. Next, he used it to eat half of it and to help climb on top of the chest. It didn’t help at all to reach the top, so he had no choice but to give it back to the mice or eat. That is when his tummy was growling, so he ate it. And then Ben the giant came to the chest which Martin was near to get something. Unfortunately, he was looking for his teddy bear which was at the bottom of the chest. Luckily, he started throwing things out of the chest and figured out it was a toy chest. Unfortunately, it scared the mice away and Martin thought his random toys were going to crush him. Luckily, he was safe under the bed and he saw a mini-bazooka gun and didn’t know if it worked. But he looked on the walls and saw a medium-sized hole, which was probably from the medium-sized bazooka gun. So he aimed towards Ben as the mouse came out of his hole. He almost shouted 3, 2, and 1, but he realized it was wrong. The giant has not done anything wrong! Martin would probably go to jail! And the giant found his teddy bear and layed down on the bed that had just broken. He ran to the clouds and he thinked, he thinked, and he thinked some more.

He used his old invention “The Phone Catcher 3000” that would bring his mom’s phone straight to “The Phone Catcher 3000”! He had his mom’s phone and his mom and dad immediately knew where he was, but they were not sure. He wanted to take some pictures but he needed to be taller. So he grabbed some paper out of the mini-printer that was glued to the back of his mom’s phone. He folded it into stilts. He was high enough, and scared enough. But he got over it quickly and started taking pictures of the giant, his toy chest, the hole in the wall while holding the mini-bazooka gun, his other stuff, and the last picture was when he got off the stilts so he didn’t have to get back on. It was hard getting on the first time! It took him about 7 minutes to get on it. So once he got off the stilts he took a few pictures of the mouse and his cheese and gave him a name. He is now called Cooper. The mouse squeaked “I am a girl, not a boy.” So he thought, Camila? Chloe? Caroline? Charlotte? Clara? Cora? Callie? Claire? Cecilia? Catherine? Catalina? Chelsea? Christina? Candace? Probably something that starts with C because C is for cheese.

Martin had no other choice to get down but take the Leap of Faith. So he said “3!” It was not an accident. Everybody gasped! His parents were 99% sure that he was up there until the clouds by him and not below him went away so they were 100% sure. “2!” His parents started crying as the police were coming. “1!” He shouted. Everybody was worried and the police were even worried too! They were in the spot. “1!” He shouted. The police had a megaphone and said “Now Jump.” Martin said “Jump?” He knew it was familiar so he yelled “JUMP!” as he did what he said. He was falling in the air and the police were holding and stretching a tall and huge net. Martin started freaking out a little like last time. Then he bounced off the net like it was a trampoline! He bonked his head on the ground and felt dizzy. He shook his head and he was ok. His parents hugged him hard which made Martin scared because he thought he was going to pop out of their arms and go all the easy to the top of the cloud. And he did, but it was ok. This blue-shirted brave young famous scientist had gone down the same way. He went in his house and went on the computer.

He uploaded his photos to the computer and imported them into a new website. He put pictures everywhere and started typing everything about them! Even what it was like and what he thought about it! Then a few days later, He was famous and woke up with a crowd and a stage and even the mayor! He was so excited as he was up on stage ready to speak into the microphone as his parents, friends and family had joined his audience and his grandma was not being mean anymore. She was being nice and smiling at him. He said his words as he held his very first trophy. He was proud. 13 years later, he was an adult with a new house with his own computer that he bought from the 1 Million dollars the mayor gave to him. He was playing some games on the computer and he looked at his Trophy and smiled.
