the end of the novel

“I want a blue sofa,” I think “with frilly white lace.” It appears before me. I jump onto it. “Its hard as a rock!” I tell Ramona. “Yoy.” She says grumpily. I still don’t get why she says that, but I keep my mouth shut. 

 CHAPTER 6 {Chip}

After hours of wand lessons, I sit on the now, soft sofa. Its more comfy than any couch I’ve ever sat on. Disfigured dolls, books, baskets and bottles surround me. Only some are perfectly normal. I get up. Ramona helps me organize the normal books onto a bookshelf. We put the disfigured ones into a shoebox. Ramona says, “When we are older, we will look back on this and laugh.” “Umm.” I say to Ramona “Will I be hear for the rest of my life?” “Well of course!” she says, “You can if you want to.” I don’t know what to say. We finish organizing. I wave flower wallpaper onto the wall. “Come on.” Says Ramona. “Make the little bouncy surface.” I wave the wand under the hole. In a puff of fluffy white smoke it appears. It is a dark brown color. I wish it blue. “Bye.” Says Ramona, “It was really nice meeting you.” I nod sadly. She walks towards the blue surface, than turns around. “Wait,” She says, “What are you gonna name your mouse.” I look at the little black fur ball, who is zipping in, and out, and around furniture, that I had worked so hard to perfect. He stops to chew on a potato chip that had dropped during our occasional snack times during wand lessons. “Chip.” I blurt and as I say it I know it isn’t a mistake.

CHAPTER 7 {Just a dream?}

Ramona jumps onto the surface “I’ve got something I want to show you in the morning!” she says. Than she disappears up the hole. When she leaves, Chip stops running and chewing. He jumps onto my lace bed, squeaks a high-pitched squeak, and curls up into a ball on my pillow. I get into some silk pajamas, that Ramona has lent me. I climb into bed. The soft covers curve around me, and I instantly fall asleep.

 I’m sweating hard. Running, running, running through a dark cave. I can’t move any more, but something is forcing me to keep going! Visions of my parents dieing flash through my mind! I’m scared! “I WANT MY MOM!” I scream “I WANT MY DAD! I WANT MY SISTER!” Suddenly I’m back at the camp sight. My mom and my sister are dieing before me! “HELP!” Mom screams. I look at her helplessly. I can’t move! I start to cry. The next time I look up I’m in the woods. Dad is screaming, “RUN!” His voice echoes in my

 ears, as my eyes flutter open. Chip’s tiny claws dig into my face. I scoop him up. My face is red and my eyes are full of tears. I set Chip on the ground, and climb out of bed. Ramona shoots down the rabbit hole. “Morning!” She says cheerfully “I’ve got something to show you!” “Ok.” I say, as I get dressed.

CHAPTER 8   {Faraleena}

 Ramona pulls me over to her front door. “I’ve been aching to tell you ever since I met you!” She grabs my hand, jumps into the hole, and pulls me down with her. “Yoy!” she says as we hit the bouncy cushioned ground. Her home is colorful and ever inch of what should be wall, is ocean. “Wow.” I say “Never mind that!” she screams excitedly. She pulls me over to a door in the back of her house. The door is labeled “Faraleena.” She opens it. We walk into a jungle, covered in vines. Flower stems are everywhere but no full flowers. “Where are we?” I ask. “Faraleena’s bed,” she is interrupted by an ear bursting roar. A gigantic lizard like creacher crawls out of a crumple of huge trees. It has dark black scales witch change colors in the sunlight. It has huge pointy ears and large sunset eyes. Its features are big and strong. Large, pointy, green, dinosaur like plates grow from it’s back and lead down to its tail. It snorts loudly. Smoke spirals from his nose, witch, by the way, is the size of a small couch. Ramona pats its nose “How do you like her?” she asks. All I can stammer is “D…D…Dragon!” “Yoy!” She says “A dragon indeed. This is Faraleena.”  I nod nervously. “Will it hurt me?” I ask “No way! She is too sweet.” Ramona says. She climbs up one of Faraleena’s legs, and squeezes herself between two of the plates. The dragon doesn’t seem to notice anything. Suddenly, Faraleena is in the air drifting through clouds silently. In a couple minutes they land soundlessly before me. “Get on.” Ramona says. I try to climb up Faraleena’s leg, but it’s too slippery. Suddenly I’m off the ground. The dragon is holding me! Faraleena drops me onto her back. I slide between two plaits. We are all of the sudden in the air. Soaring above miles of jungle and rivers. “Dose any body know about this?” I ask Ramona. “No,” she wispers guiltily “Please don’t tell any one.” I promise I wont, than ask ,“Why can’t you have dragons?”  she just mutters “they are just so misunderstood.” “How are they misunderstood?”  I ask. “Its all because of the Lug Droppers,” She begins. “Who?” I ask “The Lug Droppers,” she says “they own these things they call Net Planes. They drop big robotic slugs from the planes. The slugs are programmed to find the key and lock to our home and distroy anything in its path.” “Well,” I ask “where is the key and why do they want it any way.” “We don’t know where the key is,” says Ramona “The reason he wants the key, is because he wants to take over. 2 in a half years ago, a kind man named Master Creeden ruled this aria. I was 8, and his daughter, Allysa, was my best friend. She was sweet, funny and brave…like you.” I smile and she pushes on “One night all of the suddon he turned evil and killed my best friend. We were forced to kick him out. Now he seeks revenge on us and will not stop in till he destroys our home. “He killed his dauter?” I ask “Ya,” She says something went wrong in his mind. Now, he has a whole lot of minions helping him meet his strongest goal.” I shudder. I feel my neak for my favorite neaklace that my mom gave me at age 5. ITS NOT THERE! “MY NEACKLACE!” I moan. Ramona just looks at her feet guiltily. “YOU STOOL IT!” I scream at her as Faraleena lands on the ground softly. Ramona and I slide of the dragon “GIVE IT TO ME!” I dimand. Finaly she looks up “I can’t give it too you! The day Madam Saphira took you in, she saw it around your neak. It is the lock Creeden needs!” “I’m leaveing this place!” I scream “I have a real life you know!” “That’s not duabel.” She says softly “We only go into the place you would call, the real world every wensday.” “Fine!”  I scream, and as I say it I know it is the end of our friendship. I storm out of the room feeling like a prisoner. When I am finaly in my soft warm bed I think it through. I just lost the closest thing I’ve ever had too a friend in my life. On top of that, my favorite peseshon and best remembrance of my family is gone. I weep into my pillow. When my family was still alive, I had never cried in less I had to go to the ER. Things are different now. Chip licks my face with his eeney weeny tong. I pat his head gratefully. Then fall asleep.

CHAPTER 9 {my big escape}

Finally, Wensday. I’ve  stayed confined in my home waiting for the big W-day to pop up. Madam Saphira’s loud voice says, “Everyone, please line up at the golden gate and wait for the doors too open” I hear this from my house. I have to edmite its very hard for me to say good bye to this home. Chip bounds into my pocket. I let him stay. He will be good company when I’ve run away. I bolt over to the bouncie pad, and jump.When I’ve hit the ground I run as fast as I can too the line that has formed in front of the golden gate. I make sure to stay away from Ramona, Who is hanging with Comfort. The doors open slowly. Then once its fully open, Kids, faries, animals and more fille out freely. I walk slowly. Finaly I reach the gate. Madam Saphira stops me. “You are not leaving.” “Why not!” I ask “I have my reasons.” She says as she pulls me out of the crowd. “Stay!” She orders “Stay inside the the golden gate.” I shift my weight as She goes to watch over the other people outside the gate. I can’t stay prisoner forever! I think. I search for anyone who is not out playing. No one is inside the gate exept me. The next time I look through the bars of the gate everyone has disappeared. They probably went on a hike. No one too see me escape. I slip through the bars, carefully, and run. I dash behind a tree because of the murmuring of a machine. I hear the sound again, but this time its closer. I turn. Behind me are two, huge, robotic slugs. Before I can move, The things grow big arms and legs, grab me and through me into net. My screams are muffled as I get dragged away. My head hits one of the robot’s legs, and every thing turns black. The next thing I know I’m in a dome. My head is in a hat dash case, and I’m laying down on a meatel bed . A tall man with blonde hair. A scare strikes across his lips. He smiles melevalently. “I’ll give you a choice,” he says in a crakey voice “Tell us where the key is, or we can take your memories. All I have to press a button, and your memories will be in my head.” His voice sounds formilier. “You killed my dad!” I blurt. He nods. “I did.” He smiles “I also may have played a little with your mom’s phone.” “WHY!” I scream. I burst into tears “Because,” he says over my wails “I need that key and lock. Many years ago I dated your mother,” I gasp. He keeps going “I gave her that key so she could visit me. She never did!” “I don’t blame her!” I scream through tears. He pushes on “When I got kicked out, well, I needed to find a way in too that little world. I figured, with your parints gone, it would be easy to capture you, and I was right. So, whats it gonna be. A brain wash, or you telling us.” “I wont speak!” I scream. He presses a button on a remote he is holding. I feel pain surge through me as my brain is washed away.

Chapter 10 {THE END}

I zoom around parked cars on my new bike. My aunt and uncle are throwing a big celebration for my birthday and they want me out of the house when they setting up. They adopted me from my parents who strangly went missing last June. Down the road I see a girl fall off her bike. I zoom down too her “Are you ok?” I ask “Yoy.” She says as she gets up. She rides away. “I think I’ve heard those words before. Maybe from an old friend? Nee.” I say as I ride away.

THE END

I scroll the big letters across the big page. “Dad!” I yell “I’ve finished my first novel!” “Great job Mally. Now come out side for smorse.” “Ok.” I anser. We are having a camping trip for my Mom’s birthday. I crawl out of the tent, and swing my my baby sister, Ocean, around she giggles. Suddenly the phone rings. Mom picks it up, “Hello?” she says “Oh…Hello, did you order a ufo?”
