Fight for Food

Counting Down in, 5...4...3...2...1...blast off!!!!! That was the day the the six man crew of the spaceship left off. The spaceship shaped like a musical-note took off to the tune of Fur Elise. On the crew is Betty. She enjoys science. Kelly loves science and is looking forward to going to Planet Oobleck. Sarah is very shy and is nervous about this trip. Jake is very adventurous and doesn't care for science. Nelson is the type of guy who knows everything and likes science. Noah is the creator of the spaceship and very nervous if the ship will work.

One week has past and the crew is all still alive and enjoying the mission. The crew has become very close and is very excited. In a few hours they should arrive on the oobleck on Planet Oobleck.

One Month Later...

The crew has now arrived and is living life happily. Months have past now and there is a shortage of food. The crew has rationed their food a lot and needs to find more food. "What should we do if the food runs out tomorrow!" Sarah said worried in her shy voice. Nelson the said, "Well studies have said that Planet Oobleck is the same as earth but the ocean is different." "Yeah! Why don't we go out and find food to eat." Jake suggested. Kelly replied with a shake in her voice, "That would be dangerous!" They then decided to go out for everyone's sake and saw the Planet to be very interesting.

A Day Later...

They toured the island for a few days and found the most fruit filled forrest anyone could imagine. They ate and ate until they all felt sick. The next morning, They had her birds screeching danger. "Hide everyone!" Noah whispered. Everyone took their places behind trees bushes and anything they could hide in or with. Soon aliens walked toward them holding vicious looking weapons and sniffing for human flesh. "Who enters my magical forrest of fruit?!" The human looking alien king shouted. "We are citizens of planet Earth and we were just looking for some food because we would have died." Sarah answered. "You may own the forrest you know....but you will have to fight five of my best warrilans(warriors). "The king challenged. "We will fight you!" Jake yelled boldly.

That Night...

The crew went back to their spaceship and prepared for the big fight. They gathered the weapons on the ship and stoned to hit the warrilans with. Sarah was even more nervous about this event than the time they were blasting off. To hide her fear, She smeared her makeup al over her face just as Kelly and Betty did. The boys swiped oobleck all over their body to look fearless.

They started to walk towards the warrilans and stared into their cold eyes. It was so silent that you could only hear the little thuds pounding against the wet grass. Then it happened. the head warrilan began charging Jake. Then there was a big commotion. It was chaotic. Warrilans pulled at the girls hair viciously. They fought for 10 days and 10 nights. The Warrilans won.

Two weeks have past and everyone is thinking over the stupid reason they have been fighting for. Why were we fighting for a forrest if we are leaving in three days? Jake asked himself. It was true that they would be only fighting to own the forrest for three days.

Three Days Later...

The Crew was about to board the spaceship when the alien king approached Jake. "Here." The king said handing Jake a rolled up scroll. "What is this?" Jake said taking the scroll to hand. He opened it up to find a peace treaty saying...All Humans are permitted to come to Planet Oobleck and enter any forrest!

Signed,

Nipujan Dado

(Alien king)

 

The crew had accepted the treaty and they asked the aliens if they wanted to come to earth. The aliens agreed. Then they all boarded the spaceship one by one. They aliens had loved earth life and stayed for the year. !Otika na puchika olasnes! Happy 'til' next time!
