Blooger Town

Once upon a time, there was a town named Blooger Town. The people who lived there were called Bloogers and they had blue skin. Because secretly they were aliens, they lived on Mac and Cheese Island. Of course that meant that Mac and Cheese was their life. Most people there were either named Mac or Cheese. Then one day a magical unicorn came and ate the island. So everyone went to Blooger City, the new country next to Blooger Town and they all lived happily ever after. The End.

The Tower of Pisa and How it Got Tilted- V.A

Whatever you have heard about the Tower of Pisa and how it got tilted is all a lie.The president at the time and his officials have been keeping this secret for far too long.The people of the world have the right to know. We know it’s true since we have a witness. The protagonist’s friend, or so he thought.
It was a dark and foggy day. Actually, too dark and foggy to be day. A local Japanese girl looked at the newly built tower of Pisa which was at the time straight. She was said to be named Miyu Yakimora. She stared up at the tower and squinted. That’s when they appeared. Demons. Miyu spread out her beautiful angel wings. Her best friend Marco watched the whole thing and recorded it. He was astonished to see his best friend as a power angel. Miyu knew of one way to get rid of the demons. Since she was an angel she could make anything appear so she used that ability to make a rocket. She attached that rocket to the tower and it flew high up into the sky and went out of orbit. The demons got destroyed, but the rocket ran out of fuel and fell back to Earth.It then fell at a spot in Paris and was tilted. That is how the Tower of Pisa became tilted.

Why people should come to Florida By: Julianna Marquinez

 

I think people should come to Florida. WHY?! Because when you would like to retire, you can enjoy our recreational activities, and our beautiful beaches and sunny weather! Plus I think Florida should be King of the Sunbelt! Florida is a peninsula, which means our beaches have beautiful sunsets.

This wonderful state is also known for its attractions.  As most people know, we have Disney World in Florida! We have many other attractions like Busch Gardens, Lowry Park Zoo, and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium!

Horses and Their Meaning to Me by Isabella Edbrooke

Horse are creatures that make me feel inspired because the look on their face makes me believe that anything is possible. I would swim across the seven seas to look into a horses’ eyes. Why would I do that? Well, let’s just say horses give me a spark in my heart. They give me the courage to stand up for myself, and stand up for others and more.They give me the strength to believe in me and them. When I see a horse being mistreated or any animal I stand up for them. I donate money to ASPCA and talk to Peta about everything.  I even walk up to that person and confront them (but in a calmly and kind manner of course) and I tell my mom so she can go on a mission to save all of the mistreated! My family stands up for one another and for animals I do  because the look on a horse’s face makes me motivated to do more.

Some of my horses have bonds with me like Armando. He and I do a little trick- when I turn my head to the left he turns his head to the left and when I look down he looks down and so on. My other horse Ladybug also does a trick with me. When I walk forward she walks forward, when I walk backwards she walks backwards. And when I stop she stops. Horses mean the world to me. That is why I love horses.

The Land Of Everville by Alina Grillo

One day, I was in my house, bored, looking for something to do. While I was walking, I brushed my hand on the wall. My fingers felt a bump. I wondered what it was while I felt around by the bump. After studying it for a minute or two, I realized it was the shape of a door. I felt around where the doorknob would have been, but I couldn’t find one. All I felt was some sort of keyhole. The whole door was wallpapered over so I picked at the wallpaper over the keyhole. After I finally got the keyhole to show, I thought I could maybe look through it.  When I did, I was surprised. I saw a bright world of ponies!

I fell back and almost hit the wall behind me. What was that? I thought.  I decided to look through it again, but this time I looked closer. I felt a little weird…I blinked and I saw that I was laying on bright green grass. Where am I?  I thought. I tried to get up, but when I did, I was not standing up. I felt shorter than I usually do, and dark gray hair was blowing in my face. I lifted up my arm to push the hair away. But instead of my fingered hand pushing it away, I felt a hoof.  I felt A HOOF! What the hay is going on? I thought. Why is my hair gray? I froze. A small group of ponies were standing before me.

“A-are you a princess?” one of them asked.

“No,” I answered. “At least I think so..”

“Then why are you an alicorn?” asked the other one. ( Alicorn= Pony with wings and horn) Was it true? Am I pony? Am I an alicorn?

“ I don’t know..” I hesitated. “I don’t even know where I am and how I got here..”

“ Oh, well I’m Bluestar.” Said the first pony. She’s a female, And her mane was white and blue. Her body was a dark gray and her cutie mark was a white star, a

blue star, and a gold star overlapping.

“And I’m Glimmer.”  Said the other pony. She was also female. Her body was white and her mane was blue and pink. Her cutie mark was sparkles and she was a unicorn.

When we were walking to Bluestar’s house Glimmer stopped and said,

“Come to think of it, are you The Alicorn of the Prophecy, Silverstar?”

“Prophecy?” I asked.

“Yes,” said Glimmer “one day an alicorn princess of warriors will come and save Everville!”

Everville, I thought, is that where I am?

“I don’t know…” I replied.

“Well maybe we can go on the train to Princess Equinox?” asked Glimmer. “She’ll probably know!”

We headed for the train.  On our way there I saw a lot of trees, houses, shops, it was like a little village.  There were a lot of animals like bunnies, cats, and dogs. When we arrived at the train station it looked like it was made of candy. I was slightly shocked that when nobody was looking I licked it, but it didn’t taste at all sweet, It tasted like metal.  Yeah…Well, after that we went on the train. It was quite comfy.  I looked out the window on the way to Princess Equinox’s castle and I saw cities, farms, villages, animals, everything!

“So”, said Bluestar “what’s your name?”

“Well, when I was human my name was Alina.” I replied.

The ride was silent until we got to Princess Equinox’s castle in Anila.  The castle had flags of the Everville coat of arms. The coat of arms had a night scene and a day scene on it and it said, “The United Nation of Everville” on it.

When we arrived at the castle we saw Princess Equinox.  She is a tall beautiful mare and she is an alicorn.  Her body was a muted yellow, and her mane looked like a sunset.  Her eyes were purple and her cutie mark was a night sky with a sun.  When the Princess noticed us she looked shocked.

“Hello Princess,” said Bluestar, “We believe this is Silverstar from the Prophecy.”

“Hmm…,” said the Princess “Let me ask her a question.  Did you come from the human world?”

“Yeah, I did.” I answered.

“I see,” she said.  “You are Silverstar. You have been center here to save

Everville from the evil Cinimod!”

“Cinimod?” I asked.

“Yes”, she replied, he wants Everville to be his own.”

“But how could I do it?”

“With this,” Princess Equinox opened a chest with her magic. There seemed to be a sword in it.

“What’s that?” I asked.

“The Sky Sword,” she answered. “This is what you’ll use to defeat Cinimod”

Then the sky went dark.

“He is here.” said Princess Equinox. “You must defeat him now. We all walked out of the castle.  Cinimod was there.  He looked, well, like a mish-mash of every animal in the animal kingdom.

“Heh,” he said “ The little ponies have come to defeat me, even though it is impossible.”

Equinox growled. “You’ll never get a way with this!”

“Oh, but I will,” he sneered. “We can start the battle whenever you want.”  He fired a ball of light towards me.  I dodged it.  The Princess told Bluestar and Glimmer to go in the castle because it wasn’t safe.  The obeyed. Cinimod kept firing the balls of light and I kept dodging them.  Eventually I fought back withthe sword.  About ten minutes of fighting later, the Sky Sword started to glow alight blue.  What’s this? I thought.  A laser fired out of the sword towards Cinimod.   The force sent me back a few feet and it hit Cinimod right in the chest.

“AHH! NO!” He screamed as he turned to ash.

The sky returned to normal.

“You did it!” exclaimed Glimmer and Bluestar in sync.

“Congratulations,” said the Princess “You have defeated Cinimod. What will you do now?”

“I’m thinking of going back home, but I’ll be back!”

“Okay, Silverstar the Warrior” said Equinox.  “I’ll bring you back to the keyhole.

She brought us all back to the keyhole.

“Bye.” I said.

“Goodbye.” they all said.

I looked into the keyhole and blinked.  When I was at home I plopped on my bed.  Turning into a pony is tiring work.  Then I fell asleep.
