Chapter 1: The Unidentified Flying Object
"Today, class, we will start to learn about space." said Ms. Kisa.
"Oh, goody!" said Victor. "We finally get to learn about something I like!"
"Class, I would like you to open your scienece folders, and get out your Science Journal. Then write all that you know about space. First, though, I would like you all to think up a few words that have something to do with outer space. Then raise your hand when you have thought up at least three words and tell the to me. I then I'll spell it on the chalk board" said Ms. Kisa.
Victor put up his hand. "Meteorite, asteroid, comet, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, mon, Voyager, space shuttle, space probe, U.F.O., orbit-
"Leve some for the rest of us!" said Jessica, but the chalk board was already filled.
"Rotation" said Amber.
Oh, cool" said George sarcastically on the bus later that afternoon. "I got a "D-" on my math test".
"It was tough!" said Martha. She was the math expert in Ms. Fiona's class. "I got an "A-" on it. I usually get an "A+". That was the hardest I've ever done!".
"Oh, belive me, it will get harder" said William.
"You mean, harder then the final question, 51x=1-b+(s-x)? That was really hard!"
"I know!" said Amber.
"We're almost at my stop, so I think we'd better put our papers away" said Martha. Victor, Amber, George and Jessica were coming over to Martha's house for her sleepover party. "Besides," she said, "I want to play Mario on my gameboy.".
"Can we watch you play?" asked Victor.
"Sure." said Martha.
"Why not just start right now?" asked George.
"Because we don't want to miss my stop.".
"I new that." said Jessica.
"No you did'nt" said Victor.
"Yes I did".
"No you did'nt".
"Yes I did".
"We're at my stop, you know." said Martha.
"Wow, arguing sure makes time fly fast!" said Victor. "Gee Jessica, we should argue when we want to make time fly!"
"Let's stay up all night!" said George. "I just LOVE to do that at sleepovers. First though, lets go and get an afternoon snack. Then let's go for a walk.".
"When are we going to play Mario?" asked Jessica.
"Midnight" said Amber.
"I'll go get some chips" said Martha.
You know" said Jessica, late in the after noon, almost dinner time. "I just realized that I don't feel good enough to have a sleep over party.".
"Oh, no! Go get the ambulance!" joked George.
"I'll go get the thermometer." said Martha.
"I was only joking!" called George.
"Who knows?" called Martha from down the hall way.
When she was upstairs, Amber said "Maybe you should lie down on the couch".
"Maybe" said Jessica. So she sat down on the couch. When Martha came down, she took Jessica's temperature. It was 100, so her mom came and picked her up.
After, Victor said: "Why not go on the walk we planned to do?".
"All right! Let's go!" said they walked down the street.
"Hey! Bethany is over there, let's go!" cried Martha.
They ran over.
"Oh, hi!" said Beth. "Its six o clock. I was going home. It's dark out."
"Hey what's that thing up in the sky?" aked George. They all looked up. Something was up there, all right. And it was weird. The body of the ship was a circle shape, there was a tube thing sticking out, and on either side were weapons, and on the wings were flashing red lights.
