My Dream of the Dirty Slog

One night I had a dream. In my dream, I was with the children of Narnia. We were crawling through the wardrobe, which was actually the small white bookshelf outside the door of my room! We appeared in this new room. It was a giant indoor jungle gym for babies and toddlers, only the babysitters somehow seemed very cruel, as if they were going to poison the innocent little children. The jungle gym was covered in lots of nasty dirt and crumbs. 


I was seated at the end of a long table. Opposite me, at the other end of the table was a cruel, creepy looking old lady. Fortunately, I was able to get up. But all of a sudden another creepy old lady attempted to get a kite tangled in my hair! All of a sudden I felt a sharp pain in my leg. I looked down. It turned out that the lady was sewing me with a needle and thread! 


It was all over. I woke up.

My Dream of The Flying Raccoon

One night I had a dream. In my dream, I had to spend the night at my friend Ollie's house, because my parents were making a trip to the grocery store! The next day, I went back home. My parents were not back yet! So I invited my friend Lucy over to play. We were outside, when something extravagantly extraordinary caught our eyes.  It was a small, fat, gray creature with a black-and-gray striped tail and a black marking that gave me the impression that it was wearing a robber's mask on its triangular face. Why, it was a raccoon! And it was flying! It landed in a bush.  

Later that afternoon, my parents got home. I was about halfway down the stairs when my parents ran up to greet me. Then, my mom said spookily, "What flies and has claws?" I realized the answer. Of course raccoons had claws, and I had seen proof that very day that they could fly. "R-r-raccoon?" I stammered. "Raccoon!" my mom hissed, and she turned into a raccoon and pounced on me. 


It was all over. I woke up.

My Dream of the Cheek-Chewing Gopher

One night I had a dream. In my dream, I was sent to a public school.  The kids did not appear to have  specific faces, they just hung out in blurred groups in the background. Actually, I'm not even sure if there were any kids in the classroom. My classroom was small and dark, like a cellar, and it was unusually empty, no desks, no blackboard, no anything.  Well, since I was only dreaming, this didn't seem the slightest bit unusual, quite on the contrary, it seemed perfectly ordinary. Perhaps this is because peculiar things do occur often in dreams. Well, anyway, we were having a perfectly ordinary school day, and then the teacher walked over to me. Well, I do remember one desk, located in a corner of the classroom. I strongly suspect that the reason I remember it is because he led me over to it. It must have been his. On it sat a mirror. I looked in it. I could see the teacher standing behind me in the mirror. Then... slowly... no, it couldn't be... but it was... slowly, the teachers face began to warp. He soon turned into a...GOPHER! And he began to chow down on my cheek, saying, "Gnaw, gnaw, gnaw!" in a crazy sort of way that gave me the impression of a maniac firing his bullets madly at his unfortunate victim.



It was all over. I woke up.

The Last Chapter of the The Three Sisters

Laura was pacing back and forth in Beth's cottage when there was a knock at the door. Laura opened it. The mailman was already getting into his car. Laura picked up the newspaper, took it inside, and began to read.  A headline caught her eye.  It said, "LOOKING FOR A NEW JOB? WORK FOR THE OLIVER DEER AND THE HEAVY METALS BAND.  DIAL 317-127-6345."  She dialed the number right away.  

A few months later, Laura was able to buy a new house! She was now working for a rather famous band called Oliver Deer. Laura was very happy. But she would always take time to think about Beth and visit her in the hospital.   

Beth was lying in her hospital bed. This was the worst, and according to the doctor (who was going to call Laura and inform her of the dreadful news), possibly the last day of her life. 

Half an hour later, Laura was screaming at the doctor that he couldn't let it happen, and the doctor was on the phone with Rikky. 
Slowly, a grin spread across the doctor's face. Slowly, Laura stopped screaming. Slowly, a tiny jolt of hope grew inside of Beth. When the doctor got off of the phone,  he exclaimed, "Beth! There's hope! Your sister Rikky said she would pay for Tromedlov, and if I can keep you alive for a few more days, then there will be time for the medicine to arrive from Pakistan!" 

A week later, the three sisters gathered at Beth's cottage. Rikky had forgiven her sisters because she realized that lobsters could be important but they were nothing compared to Beth.  Beth was cured, and Laura didn't even have a dot of sadness.  
The End

The Three Sisters Chapter Six

Months passed by. Beth managed to buy a small log cabin. Laura would stay with her.  In one room there were two beds with maple headrests with a small oak table beside each, in another room there was a stove, an oven, a sink, a large cupboard, and an oak table and two chairs. There was a bathroom.  Finally, there was a living room with a warm fireplace and a patchwork quilt as a carpet next to it and two cushiony armchairs.    

For a while, it seemed as though things would turn out alright. But soon, Beth began to get sicker and weaker every day, and the doctor said that terrible fate would be awaiting Beth if the special medicine was not purchased, and fast. The special medicine cost five thousand dollars. It was very rare, and found only in Pakistan. It was called the Tromedlov (Trom-idd-lahv) plant and you could make the special purple gel medicine if you mixed the Tromedlov juice with cane sugar crystals and boiled the concoction.

Meanwhile, the next few weeks went terribly for the three sisters. Rikky spent half her time crying her eyes out.  Beth had to stay at the hospital.  And lonely Laura paced back and forth through Beth's cabin with only Beth's dog, Firebolt, for company.

Three Sisters Chapter Five

Rikky  was reading the newspaper, but only with vague concentration. There were other things to think about, like mortgage and bills and problems like that. But the biggest thing on her mind right now was the situation she was in with Beth.  After some thinking, Rikky had decided that she was angrier than she had ever been in her life, and even though she was pretty sure she still loved Beth, she was too angry to be certain of that.  Also, she was furious with Laura for being kind to Beth, and she didn't know if she loved Laura either.

All of a sudden, she was awoken from her daydreaming by a slight vibration. She pulled her magenta, diamond-studded cell phone from underneath her. She answered it. It was Beth. "Rikky! Laura is losing her house and we'll have nowhere to stay! Please, can we stay with you?" she said.  "No!" yelled Rikky. It made her even angrier to talk to Beth, so she didn't bother. She hung up. She heard Beth shriek, but only for a split second.

Beth was shocked. She ran downstairs. "She said no!" she screamed.  "It's okay, calm down," said Laura."I just thought of something. You have a little insurance, don't you?" This made Beth feel a little better, but there was still a lot to worry about.

Last Chapter of Little Grandpas

Soon Dnumde had a little baby named Yllek. Fourteen months later,  another baby was born. Her name was Nerak.  Years passed by.  Boy, did Dnumde wish that they would grow up quick.  Twenty- nine years later, Dnumde and Ylloh were at the bar playing pool and talking.  Dnumde couldn't believe he was already ninety-one years old. Ylloh was seventy-one. Dnumde was glad that his first daughter, Yllek, was at the hospital and expecting a baby, but he was afraid that he wouldn't live to see the baby turn into a child.



Five years later, Dnumde went to the town hall and gathered with the grandpas, none of whom had ever had granchildren. So Dnumde had brought his five-year-old granddaughter Azile (Uh-zee-lay). Azile was a little nervous to be around a bunch of old men, but she was happy to make them happy.
