The Lost City of Atlantis


The legend of Atlantis all started in 3000 B.C, a beautiful city on an island. It was there for only 2000 years. Then in 1000 B.C. it all flooded, fell down and split in half. In 137 A.D. mysteriously the island was fixed but instead of it being on land it was under the water. King Neptune, the Ruler of the sea made a few changes to the place: he made it out of gold and he made a dome to protect the kingdom against enemies.
King Neptune married a princess and they had a son. His name was Triton. Triton was a boy who had a magical golden sword that could zap things. He learned all his spells from Neptune.
One day their enemies, The Sea Pirates planned to attack Atlantis. Luckily for Neptune he had the dome to protect everyone. Triton used his sword and hit the pirates’ ship and then the whole ship went BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!! “I will get you someday Neptune, SOMEDAY!” said the Pirates and they swam off. The kingdom was damaged a little. Luckily Neptune had a healing spell that fixed the whole place. Everyone thanked Neptune and Triton.
Later, Neptune made his kingdom out of diamonds and his dome stronger and he added a cannon launcher. It was getting nighttime then they all slept. Triton woke up early, snuck out of bed and went off to the pirates’ kingdom. He damaged half of it. The pirates went outside and were angry. They declared a battle. When they shot their cannons Neptune woke up and stormed outside. He got mad at Triton and grounded him from his sword.  Neptune launched the cannons and hit the ship. Triton just stood there and watched. The pirates shot the guns and it hit Neptune! “Dad, are you okay?” said Triton. Triton got so mad that he had to do one thing that he would never do. He got into the jet fighter and stormed off. He launched 3 missiles at the kingdom. It exploded. Then he launched the machine guns. Drrtttttttttt! The ship exploded and the pirates died. Everyone was so happy. Triton got the healing spell and healed Neptune. Neptune was proud. He gave him a 19-inch sword. Triton deserved it. The people all cheered,” Triton! Triton! Triton!”. He was very popular around the whole sea.
Sadly in 1912 the ship Titanic crashed into an iceberg, sunk and destroyed Atlantis. All there is left is this story about Neptune and Triton defending their kingdom.

Magnus and King Théoden


It all started in Stockholm, Sweden where a little wizard was born. They named him Magnus the Wizard. He was a very talented boy who could do fire, ice and many more powerful spells. He was the best one in his class. When he was 10 years old he knew every spell in the world. He could even make things float and do a fireball. When he was 25 years old he moved to London. That was when he met Theo. Theo was hoping he would be king someday and his name would be King Théoden. One day he did become king. He decided to team up with Magnus. Together they were fighting the most powerful people in the world. Magnus made his fireball and released it to the bad guys. King Théoden called his troops to attack. When there were no more bad guys they went to their palace. It had a training room, Wizard Towers in case anyone attacked, an Archer Tower and 2 wizard guards. They were the most powerful people in the universe. They had the ability to call a fire-breathing dragon. When they wanted to attack, Magnus launched three potions in the air, which did a lot of damage, stole gold to get cannons and upgraded their Wizard Towers. Many people tried to attack them but they just got killed. King Théoden trained his troops and they won so much gold that they could upgrade their castles! They were very powerful. Once they upgraded their castle they got special things for their Wizard Towers. Since they were the most powerful people in the Universe no one attacked them except for Dark Knight. He thought he was the most powerful but King Théoden tried to destroy him. They tried everything they could but nothing worked. Magnus looked in his spell book and there was the most powerful spell ever. He flew in the air concentrating on the spell. Everything was quiet. Magnus said the words, launched the spell to the bad guy and it was so powerful that it caused an explosion. Magnus and King Théoden didn’t die since they had powerful armor. They would protect everyone forever and save the world from evil.

Soccer Champions!!!

-->
Our team has won 10 friendly games in a row. We have only lost one single game when we played against Norwood White. All of the other matches we won except in the championship when we also lost one game. Our biggest match was against Kedron when we won 8-0. When we played against them for the second time we had to let them score because they haven’t gotten a goal in 14 games. The score was 2-1. The first game we played against Kedron I got two goals, one was a penalty and one was a free kick. When there was a free kick I kicked the ball over their heads! My team colleagues say that I have some kind of robotic foot. We scored against Glenolden two times. The first game we beat them 1-0. The next game we won 3-0. Three different people scored. We beat Prospect Park two times but both games were very close, first time we beat them 1-0 and second time 3-2. By the way, I play defense but sometimes I go into attack.  It was a corner kick and one of the Prospect Park defenders kicked the ball towards me. I went up to the ball and kicked it so high it went to the end of the net! I felt so proud of myself. We won against Norwood Blue two times. The first time I scored a penalty shot. The next game we won 2-0. We only scored against Norwood White one time. The score was 2-0. We beat Collingdale one time also. The score was 1-0, but I’ve got to admit Collingdale is a great team.

Last but not least the championship! I said to myself that I had to be a good defender if I wanted to win. We versed Glenolden first and we beat them 1-0, but they didn’t go out because it was a double elimination championship. Then we versed Norwood Blue. We won 2-1 but Norwood Blue scored first and I was very frightened that we may lose. I scored a penalty. The goalie looked scared and I kicked the ball on the left side. Then last but not least the Final. My teammate went up with the ball near the goalie and SCORED!!! 1-0 amazing! Somebody dribbled the ball from Prospect Park but suddenly I heard a whistle. It was the end of the game! No more playing time and we are the soccer champions!!!! For the first time I got my beautiful trophy. We celebrated by having a hot dog party. We played some soccer, went on the moon bounce, ate pretzels, got a bag of Doritos, it was great. Being a soccer champion rocks. I hope I’m going to be the champion next year as well.
