Once in a Lifetime

Once upon a time there was an adult called Scott who lived in an air ship. Scott liked to adventure in the air early in the morning looking for new animals that haven't been discovered by humans.

One day he was looking for new animals as usual, when he saw bits of air ship falling off. 

He thought, "I hope everything's okay down there?" He went down to see what happened when... WHOOSH!

Scott looked out his window and ... and there were thousands of graceful  flying beetles floating in the air.  WHOOSH!, FLAP!, ZOOM!

Scott wondered if he could use the beetle's shell to cover the gaps in the air ship so that it can fly again. So he lassoed the beetle and he got a bulls eye! Although he got the beetle, the rope started to snap... SNAP! So Scott made a life changing decision, it was to abandon his ship.

He leaped out of his ship and landed on a flying beetle's back.  Scott said, "So this is what it feels like to be a flying beetle!"

Suddenly they vanished into fog and... Wallah! They were at the Amazon rainforest in forest land! Then the strangest thing happened to Scott... He felt the warm hug of a beetle! He had made a special bond with the beetle! Scott called the beetle Dylan.

From now on Scott lives with Dylan in the treehouse they made together. They play fetch, catch the rope, and water fight. And they lived happily ever after!

Once in a Lifetime

On a sunny afternoon there was an old man named Lachlan. He was in a diamond ship with a balloon up the top. He was flying slowly up the blue sky.


While he was pulling a rope part of the ship broke! Now he couldn't move anywhere. But then he heard a noise. He got his telescope and looked closely. Suddenly he found some gigantic green flying turtles. They were gliding like hawks. When he saw the gigantic green flying turtles an idea popped into his mind. He had a rope and tied a circle with the rope. He lassoed the turtle like a cowboy. "Yeeeeeeehaaaaaaaa!" His brilliant idea worked. The turtle was moving the ship.


Suddenly the turtle was shaking and flapping it's wings. But unfortunately when it was shaking it broke the rope. The old man was depressed!  Luckily, he saw another gigantic green flying turtle. As  the turtle flew beside his ship he leaped of the edge of the boat and landed on the turtle's shell.


He looked up and breathed through the air. When he looked down he saw the land. He was ecstatic! Surprisingly he heard the turtles talk. So he asked them if he could get dropped off at his house.
