The Twister

The Twister

There once lived a city in the Great Plains in Missouri. People
didn't know what was going on. Some people thought it was getting
dark, like it was night time. But they were wrong. It was just clouds
that were blocking out the sun. Then some person said: "A tornado is
going to happen." But nobody believed him.

Then, the traveler saw clouds spinning really fast. The clouds started going down right beside the city and started becoming two EF6 tornadoes. He told the people again but nobody believed him. The two tornadoes touched down. Everybody agreed with the traveler. As soon as the people were about to leave, the two EF6 tornadoes collided into each other and formed an EF12 tornado. Then, everybody was sucked into obliteration. Only about half the population survived.

When the EF12 tornado left, people started coming back. They found that the people survived! Only one person was injured: the traveler. Then, everybody thanked him. They saved his life, and he saved their lives.The people learned about tornadoes. They built bunkers,warning signs, and everything people have today.

One day, this cloud started spinning again. The tornado started spinning rapidly. A lot of air was sucked up. Even the people were sucked up. Then, they fell back to earth. They fell on a trampoline that can resist anything on the planet. Then, people were OK.

The End. Or is it?

The Destruction of Rome

The destruction of Rome

by: Tiago Lima Jacobsohn

(age 11)

The peaceful city of Rome was located beside an awesome mountain. People had no idea what was about to happen. Then people started finding hot volcanic bubbles in the ocean. Nobody knew what was going on. People started wondering what was going on. Then one man said: “maybe it's a volcano.” But no one believed him.

Then people started asking themselves: “is it really a volcano?” Up on the mountain a traveler from the city of Rome was walking. All of a sudden he saw an explosion. A gigantic boulder fell out of the sky. “It was melted” the traveler said to himself.

The man dodged the boulder. Then he went higher and found this cave. The man felt very hot and he heard strange noises. The man saw forty bats come at him, then he ran farther down into the cave. He wasn't looking where he was going and he fell off a cliff and into water. But then he climbed out of the water and then he heard this cracking. Then he saw lava come from the top of the ceiling. Then lava started sizzling everywhere.

The man started to shake. He heard cracking everywhere. Then lava came into the dome inside the volcano. The lava got everywhere. The man tried to escape in the water. The water disappeared. Hot rock is
everywhere. Molten rock pours in. Then the traveler gets his pick ax. He makes a hole in the wall and escapes. Then he covers the hole.

The traveler goes back to Rome and warns everybody. They all evacuate to Greece. Then the volcano explodes. Lava flows everywhere. Volcanic rocks fly. The volcano destroys itself. Rome starts to crack. Then all of a sudden Rome explodes. The molten rock started to cool down. The land became flat again. Then the people rebuild Rome. The traveler had saved them from the explosion. The traveler became their HERO!

The Rescue

The Rescue

by Tiago Lima Jacobsohn

(age 10)

There was this awesome kid and his parents. His parents were the
coolest people of all. There was this evil person who captured
Tiago’s parents. Then Tiago had to get Tiago’s parents back. Tiago
had two light sabers but they were unstable. They could not go and
save them, Tiago had to face alone an army of spiders. But there
were different types of spiders, they were black widows, tarantulas
and sun spiders and they were lead by a scorpion, after defied the
spider master.

The army was hard to fight because, before destroyed. Tiago had ten
lives because he was inside this game. It was nearly impossible to
destroy the sun spider, they circled around the spiders (you have
machine guns, light sabers and swords and you can use the skin of the
spider). And Tiago can defeat the scorpion cutting his tail and claws
and then, throw a grenade. But the scorpion did not die, they fall
asleep (when a person dies, you can come back but they don’t allow you to fight anymore).

But when Tiago blows the ceiling of the facility, place they were,
Tiago sees his parents and got them in the helicopter and fly away.

The end.
