One day I was walking down the lane to give Mr. Bobby his flowers so he could give them to someone speical. My mom had me write a letter that went with the flowers. So I was walking down Yellow Brick Road when I saw something. It was a person. No it was.... a tree. The tree was grabbing a kid with it's branches.=====

"You're a girl forget it Lilly." You will get ate if you come over here, I guest you should just walk in his mouth because he sees you."
"Just because I'm a girl dosen't mean I can't save you." I shouted. I grabbed a branch that was sitting on the ground. I held the branch and ran with all my might. The branch hit the tree and it spitt Dave out. I through the branch in its mouth and it started coughfing. "RUN!" I yelled. "I am running!" Yelled Dave. . . . Once I got home I sat down in my bed and turned on the telivison. It was already 5:00 P.M. I got out of school at 3:00 P.M. and wasted two hours saving Dave. "That was bad I.... the flowers, I forgot the flowers out with the tree on the street." Mom is not going to be happy about that" I said out loud. I heard heavy footsteps coming up the stairs. "What am I not going to be happy about?" Yelled my mother. "Flowers!" I cried. "Did I just say that out loud?" "Yes." Cried Dave. But when? "WHILE SAVING YOU!" I yelled in his face. "I said you didn't have to get me." "Well you are here in one piece because I saved you, so you should be thanking me." I said back trying to be calm. . . . Once I got to school I ran to my room. Number 201 on the 3rd floor. My teacher was Mr. Fried. Sometimes we call him fried chicken when he isn't around. Right now we were learning about the Civil War. " What time did the Civil War end?" "Lilly?" "Scary tree eats on Y.B.R." All the kids started laughing. "What!" I //yelled out.// //Dave wasn't laughing but all the others were. He looked scared from across the room. His eyes were wide and he was biting his lips and I think he was thinking of it again.// //"What does that mean?" My teacher said.// //"What does what mean?" I asked.// //"////What you just said."// //"Oh." "I ..um.. said yellow brick road."// //"Okay then." he rolled his eyes as he turned his head to face the white board.// //"Lilly what time did the Civil War end?"// //"I don't know!" I yelled and stormed out the door.//
