Hey all you story readers! Here is my next 2 chapters for my book!

Chapter 4 Building with Mr. SmithThe couple gasped but were soon relieved. In the doorway stood the man. ''There you are. I am sorry we haven’t got your name!'' Luke said. ''Guess.'' Was his reply.’’”Um Mr. Thomas?'' Lucy asked. ''Nope''. ''Uh...Mr. Cummings?'' Luke asked. ''Nope''. ''Mr. White?'' Lucy asked again.’ Still no, look if you want dinner then you better get it right.'' He said. ''Ok, I know it is… Mr. Smith?'' Luke asked hopeful showing in his face.’ Finally! Yes it is! Now let’s have dinner.'' He said. He led the kids to the small table. Then he asked if they could maybe sit on the floor for dinner. They understood so they answered yes. While they were eating small portions of chicken wings, the children suddenly stared at the chicken wings and thought to themselves, where did he get the food? Mr. Smith must have understood what they were thinking because right then he said,’ you might be wondering where I got the food. I can tell you if you promise never to tell another person what you might hear next.'' The children nodded to show that they would not. Then he began again.’ I went out the door and down the steps and use the key that the king had used to lock me in to get out the tower. Then I stayed behind the bushes to not be seen, and waited until someone put some kind of food onto the table beside me. Then I would take about a quarter of the food, Put it in-between my arms, and quickly but quietly I would sneak back into the tower.'' ''Wow, all that work for food? And what if you got caught?'' Lucy said in a loud voice.’ I know but I need to live.’ He said quietly. The small family were finished eating so they headed up the stairs to get a lesson in for building. When they were in the room with the wood and unfinished work and spinning wheel, they all sat down around the table. Then, Mr. Smith began his lesson. He lifted up a long piece of wood and put it onto the table. ''First you need to fix two chairs for you to sit in for dinner, lunch, and breakfast. To make a chair you will saw 4 straight legs, a round circle just larger then your bottom, and an oval larger than your back. When you’re done with that, tell me. So they all went to work. Luke and Lucy working on chairs and Mr. Smith working on a larger table. There were a few problems for Luke and Lucy. First, Lucy had cut a big cut on her hand from using the saw. Then, Luke had got large splitters from the wood. Next, Lucy's circle had broken in half, and finally Luke lost his wood for a leg to the chair. But Mr. Smith seemed to know what to do for every problem. He had used a napkin from dinner to wrap around Lucy’s hand and he had found some skinny, long rocks that looked like chop sticks to pull out the splitters. He used the wood from the old table as a circle for Lucy’s chair, and he had extra wood for Lukes leg to the chair. When they had all finished the first instructions from Mr. Smith, the next step was to cut holes into the wood by the screw driver he had found outside the towers big enough for the leg of the chairs to stick in and for the oval to go into the chair. This time there were no problems except for a few blisters. They had completed their job. They jumped up and gave their sister or brother a high five. ''Alright!'' they shouted. Now they were very tired and decided to go to bed. But when they looked through a crack in the towers they saw that it was already morning! But who cares? They just want to go to bed. So they grabbed a blanket from the box and a pillow from the couch and fell asleep on the floor. ''Wake uppppp. Wake uuupppp. WAKE UP!'' Mr. Smith shouted. ''Ahhhhhh!'' Lucy screamed.’ I had the worst and I mean the worst dream of my life. It was that we were locked up in a tower and there was a house and, and the.....''She paused and looked up then her face turned pale. ''That wasn’t a dream was it?'' She asked Mr. Smith. He laughed.''No!'' ''Pinch me'' she murmured and got up to change. Then she realized she had no choice. She had no clothes to change into. ''Uh...Mr. Smith do you think you can teach me how to make clothes on that spinning wheel? I really need some.'' Come on.'' He answered with a smile. Lucy kicked Luke and ran upstairs to the working room. ‘‘O.K. ok I’m up.'' Luke said also now heading for the stairs. He entered the room just as Mr. Smith and Lucy sat down in front of the spinning wheel. He joined them just as Mr. Smith started the lesson. Soon, they both had 4 new pairs of clothes. Lucy’s clothes were pink and purple. Luke’s was blue and green. When they had changed, they went to the table and had left overs from last night. When they were done they went into the room with the rocking chair. They sat down and the two kids played checkers. Luke won. Lucy declared a rematch and she won that time. They became bored. They asked if maybe Mr. Smith had any ideas. He said they could try to build something up stairs with the wood or the spinning wheel. They raced each other upstairs and headed for the room. They soon built a rocking horse and blocks to build things with when they were bored next time. Then Mr. Smith went down stairs for lunch. While they were waiting they played with the blocks. They had built a huge palace because they were wondering what it looked like below them inside the palace. Soon they heard Mr. Smith’s footsteps down stairs. They ran to him, gave him a hug and sat down at the table ready for lunch. He pulled out noodles with butter on them and piled them into there our hands. They ate it quickly and then showed Mr. Smith what they built. When he saw it he said ''wow sure does look like it. You have a very good picture in your minds.’’ He smiled and turned around to head back down stairs and take a nap.
Gone for good
Chapter 5 When he was walking downstairs, Lucy and Luke were thinking about what Mr. Smith just said. Did it really look like it? SWEET! But then they saw some problems with the castle. It was slanted, and some of the blocks were uneven. They went to work on it. While they were working on it, Mr. Smith sure was busy! He wasn't really taking a nap. He was actually planning. ''Think, think! I need to get rid of those kids before they take all I have! But what should I do? Throw them down the stairs?'' He sat down in a chair he had stolen to think. In another 20 minutes he had an idea! ''HAHAHAHAHAHA! I got it!'' Upstairs Lucy and Luke were almost done. ''One more block to even up!'' Lucy said as she handed the block to Luke. ''Mr. Smith is going to be so proud! I wish mother could see this. Man, do I miss her. Don't you think she would have noticed that we were gone by now?'' ''Duhhh." She notices every thing.'' Lucy replied. ''Yes! I am all done with the block. Lucy, if this really looks like the castle, then I want to see it!'' Luke shouted. ''I bet Mr.Smith wouldn't notice if we just headed down for a couple of seconds. I mean he has only been asleep for about 25 minutes. Should we go down? We would probably have 35 minutes to look around and come back up. Please......'' ''Well okay but lets make it quick.'' Lucy said. ''YES!'' He is still sleeping!'' “SHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” ''Sorry! Follow me.'' Luke took the key from the table and opened the door to the steps. She crept down with Luke following her and walked step by step down the stairs. When they finally got to the door, Lucy pushed the key through the key hole and turned the knob quietly. The door slowly opened. ''Ready?" When I get to three, we run through the door and to the bush ahead. 1, 2,'' He gulped. He started to shake. '' 2 and a half..... 3! '' They rushed to the bush after shutting the door. ''We made it!'' Luke said. ''Okay what next?'' Lucy asked. ''Wait till nobody’s around then us can go to that door marked dress closet and get disguises. After that, we could walk around the halls and explore with out getting caught.'' Luke said. ''Good plan.'' In the next 2 minutes they were off. They sneaked into the closet and got changed. Lucy had put on a nurses costume and Luke had on a robe and beard. ''1, 2, 3 go into the hallway!'' Lucy decided. As they were walking there were lots of pictures of famous people like George Washington. There were also lots of doors marked weird names like King Dorkus and Queen Amadofus. After the remaining 33 minutes of exploring they headed down to the tower and shut the door. ''WOW! It really did look like our castle shouted Lucy. They ran up the steps and opened the door to their prisoner house. They were in for a big surprise. All the stuff in the living room where they had built the castle had been replaced by the two chairs. ''What... AH!'' Lucy had been head first shoved into a potato sack and pushed over to a chair. Soon she was tied to it. '' LUCY!'' cried Luke, but soon the same thing happened to him. They are going to black out! In less than 30 seconds, they had.

FIRST DAY OF MIDDLE SCHOOL-AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Ok, so today was the first day of middle school, so the 2 top pictures are showing what I wore on the first day of school. This day was so crazyyyyyyyy! First, I got my schedule, and I noticed that it didn't have my locker number on it, and my 2 elective classes weren't there and instead there was different classrooms. I also found out that my homeroom teacher did seem just a little strict, but not mean. When class started, the girl beside me said hi, and so I played on and soon we were friends! So after that, I went to science, and I found a girl I saw in my last class and decided to say hi. By the end of science I had a another friend and I loved my science teacher. Next, I found out I went to 7th grade math and had a little trouble finding the classroom. When I did find it, the classroom was crowded! But after a little talking from the teacher, she mentioned that a teacher wanted her to just say the rules for the home room that was in there-so most of those kids weren't acually in that class but following their homeroom and meeting teachers. I didn't really meet any friends there, but I did try!! [she was too shy!] After THAT the teacher led us to the lunch room [wayyyyyyyy crowded!] and the princeable decided that we should sit with our homerooms. Now that was a little hard because I had to ask a bunch of kids at tables which table was my room. When I found it, I sat next to the girl I met at science, and she introduced me to her friend. Soon we were friends, and walked together to the next classroom which was history. We couldn't find 2 seats together so we had to sit next to "strangers" [just kidding!] The teacher seemed a bit strict so I am glad the classes are only 45 minutes! We did have time to interview a kid so a girl came up to me and we introduced ourselves. [I am not sure if she is called a friend yet though.] Next we had something called advisory which was in the home rooms, where the teacher answered any questions we had. Finally it was time for our electives. THey actually got the first elective right, so I followed that since it was a A day. I went to art following my teacher. But it seemed that I wasn't on his attendence roll so after class he sent me to guidance [the class was fun, because the teacher was really nice.} At guidance they messed up my schedule 5 times so that took a while and made me miss my other two electives [I didn't care though because I didn't like those 2!] but that gave them time to fix my problems and I found out that I wasn't on the art teachers rool becuase the class was too big and they put me in laton instead of that [but that is semester 2 so I don't need to worry about that!] and so now I am in drama, and choir on b days! now it was time to pack up [ui had trouble finding my bus] and sooN i WAS HOME!
