    One weekend I asked my mom if I could go down to Caleb’s house. She said, “Yes.”

    I grabbed my D.S., red sled, and went down to Caleb’s.

    First, we went sliding for a half an hour. We played with Brady, Caleb’s dog.

    I found out my D.S. was missing. I said, “My D.S. was missing.” I started to look through all my pockets.

    Caleb said, “let’s go outside to look for it.”

    We went outside to look for it in the field and in the woods. We heard a scream, ran down to Caleb’s basement, and played hockey. Then mom picked me up and brought me home.
    The next day, I saw Sheila in the field, by her house as I was walking to meet Caleb. I thought I was dreaming. She was shooting Bigfoot with a slingshot. He was this big hairy creature with rotten teeth.

    Sheila was standing right in front of him using Caleb’s slingshot. She shot Bigfoot in the head and eye. Then Bigfoot turned around and dropped my D.S. We left it on balloon battle and the score was 10 to nothing Bigfoot!
