Gingerbread Get Away
By: Nicholas
It is a bitter cold, snowy and blustery Christmas Day. The presents have all been opened and Amy ( my mom) , Luke( my dad), my sister Ally, Abe, and I are enjoying the warmth of the fire place at my house and the smell of the gingerbread cookies. Abe and s only over because his sister won three tickets to the basketball game. Abe wanted to have Christmas with us. As I sit on the couch , waiting for the gingerbread to cook, something bizarre happens, the five gingerbread men crash through the oven and out the door. They are as fast as motorcycles. “How are we supposed to catch them now?!” screams Nick.
“I dont know, call the animal control people,” replies Abe in fear of not having any gingerbread…
“Great plan!” replies Luke.
Together they all set up a trap. They all think it will be perfect. “All right, lets go get those gingerbread men,” yells Amy in excitement. They all get in front of the driveway and hid. The gingerbread men all go inside the house.
“Lets go get them!” yells Ally.
“Be quiet, or they will know we are here. whispers Nick. They all see the gingerbread men run out of the house.
“Great, while youre at it, why not just go tell the neighbors that there are gingerbread men loose in our backyard!” yells Nick frustrated. “Gosh,” adds Nick. They all go inside to take a break from trying to catch the gingerbread men. “Look, the gingerbread men are tearing down the playground, says Ally in fear.
“Oh my gosh, how do they do that?” replies Amy in fear. They all run outside to try to catch them again.
“Ha ha, got one!” yells Nick in excitement.
“Nice, only four more to go,” replies Luke.
“Its slipping out of my hands, what am I supposed to do!?” screams Nick in fear.
“Try eating it,” adds Abe.
“Im not going to eat this thing, it has germs all over it,” replies…
