The Kingdom
Chapter 2
Starring Leslie Burke as I
I found the gardens-or to be precise, Garden One. There were 6 gardens in all in Terabithia (not including the farmers').
I entered the greenhouse marked 1. Looking around, I saw a couple of bee hives as big as me, assorted flowers, many fruit and vegetable names, and 6 gardeners. Man the place was huge!
"Excuse me? Mr. Gardener?" I asked and tapped a gardener (with a wispy black moustache)'s shoulder.
"What did you say? I am not Mr. Gardener. I am Sir Gardener the First. What do you need?" the gardener asked me angrily.
"I am ever so sorry for calling you that. It's because I just came here. Oh, may I smell the flowers and check out the other things?" I asked excitedly.
"Well, it's a new girl, huh? What be your name?" he asked.
"Leslie Burke, Sir…Sir…" I answered. I had completely forgotten his name!
"Call me G.1 and of course you can look around and stuff! Go in any garden! But first, Leslie, let me introduce you to my partners: G.2( Brown hair male), G.3( super skinny male), G.4( blond female), and G.5( the twin brother of G.1)," G.1 answered politely.
"It's very good to meet you! I 'm Leslie Burke," I said and ran off to the bush of roses. They were plump and blood red. Suddenly, one growled at me.
"Careful, they are dog bush roses. Scratch their pedals. See?" G.2 said and placed his rough dry hand on the pedal. The rose stopped growling.
"Oh, thank you, G.2!" I yelled and ran over to the sunflowers. The sunflowers spit their seeds out at me!
"OW! Cut it out, you little-" I began.
"Leslie, you catch the seeds. They spit them out for a reason, you know?" said G.3.
My mistakes went on for a long while. When I had finished looking at all the crazy plants in Garden 1, it was late.
"Go to Garden 2 tomorrow and do what you did today! After all, new plants are there too that you haven't seen! Bye!" G.4 said to me and left. I walked to my hotel using the map and checked in. Luckily, I didn't have to pay for my room!
