Michael the Archer

Long ago, before mountains could walk, there was an igloo made out of frozen mint chocolate ice cream. Inside there was Swedish fish candy all over the place. Also, there was an indoor hot tub because it was so cold from the ice cream. Two people lived inside that wonderful igloo. Andrew was a knight and Michael was an archer. Michael’s special talent was sneakiness.

One freezing winder day, Andrew and Michael were having a snowball fight outside the their igloo. Then a bottle hit Michael’s head. Michael opened the bottle. Inside, it said, “You’re invited to the national disco contest at Anthony’s ocean.”

Michael put on his scuba diving suit for winter. He packed an air tank and a PIZZA. As Michael walked out of the igloo, he said, “SEE YA!!”

It was a snowy, freezing, day. The ground was bumpy because Michael lived on ice cream mountains. Michael felt sooo scared because it was pitch black. After thirty minutes, Michael went into a forest. The sun was coming. Michael can see better with the bright, shiny sun. Michael stopped because he was hungry and wanted to eat his Italian Pizza.

All of a sudden, Michael smelled a heavenly smell. It was cheddar cheese. The smell led him to an ocean. He was tempted to eat the heavenly cheese. The cheese even had wings! But, Michael followed it into a sunken ship!!! Michael went inside the spooky ship. He saw this sign that said, “Beware”.

He touched the sign. The sign randomly blew up in his face. Then, two ghosts picked Michael up and tied him onto a pole that was really rusty. A big white ghost came with an eleven foot beard and a ten foot unibrow. The thing was so ugly that it made all the fish say, “Pee yew! What’s that smell??”. Then all the fish ran away.

“I AM DIDI GUSIDI” said the hairy ghost. The fowl smell of Didi Gusidi was so horrible it was disgusting. Didi made all the fish DIE! Michael felt so scared that he begged for mercy to get out. Then Didi screamed, “I am going to turn you into a little ghost!!” Michael was so creeped out that he fainted.

Michael was thinking so hard that his face was hot like pepper. He decided to challenge Didi to a spy challenge. You had to sneak past 20 knights. Did said, “Deal!”. He joined Michael. Michael said, “Get ready, set, go!” Didi tried to bash through the Knights. Michael just cut a hole with a laser and said, “Goodbye, Dumbo!”

When Michael got out, he swam to Anthony’s palace in three minutes. Michael opened the huge door ansd saw Anthony eating pizza. Then Anthony saw Michael and said, “Get ready for disco!” Twenty minutes later, Michael won. Anthony was thankful for Michael coming so far. His reward was a big gold trophy. Then Anthony told his guards to bring Michael home. They both said, “Farewell”. Michael noticed a little piece of rope on his arm. Andrew asked, “Did you go on the sunken ship? At first, Michael said, “I have no clue what you are talking about”, then admitted he did go. Andrew said, “You’re grounded!”
