                                                                          The New Recruit

                      If you haven’t read chapter’s 1-4 you should read them before you read this chapter.

“I don’t know about that because it’s too dangerous,” said Mammoth.  “He’ll keep attacking us until we’re not alive but dead, so we might as well keep looking for clues,” said Joe.  “Fine,” said Mammoth.  Then they started running to the candy house of clues but when they were halfway there they saw something moving in the distance suddenly they stopped.

They started creeping up on it until they saw the gigantic thing.  Then Joe accidently stepped on it’s tail and it turned around.  “DRAGON!,” yelled Joe, and they were off in a jiffy.  The Dragon started chasing them, and they were running as fast as could but the dragon was also running as fast as it could too they noticed they were ahead of the dragon by a lot.  Then they heard it making a loud noise.  They stopped and noticed that the dragon was bleeding.  They went back to help it and they noticed he got shot they pulled the bullet out and saw a symbol that had a piece of Licorice.  “Lord Licorice must have shot him,” said Joe.  They healed him by finding pieces of sticky candy because he is made out of candy and put it in the cut and  then they saw a gem on its head and they found a necklace and Mammoth  sent him off but what they didn’t notice was Lord Licorice in a tree in the distance.  

When they got to the candy house of clues they opened the door and saw somebody just standing there.  (Lord Licorice didn’t know about this person).  “Hi, what’s your name,” said Joe.  “My name is Jake.”  “Hi Jake, what are you doing here?”  Said Mammoth.  “I’m looking for clues and trying to defeat Lord Licorice,” said Jake.  “We are too,” said Joe.  “Do you want to help us,” said Mammoth.  “Sure,” said Jake.  “ I found a flashlight that has a symbol on it it looks like a door,” said Jake.  “Maybe we could shine all of the flashlights in 1 place and it will give us a big clue.

They shined all of the flashlights on a flat wall and there came a huge map.  “I wonder what it means,” said Joe.  “Whatever it means we should figure it out because there will be a good clue on where it leads,” said Mammoth. “Look the symbols on the flashlights are on the map and they lead to certain destinations.” Said Jake.  “They are in order in which we found them,” said Mammoth.  “Yeah, first we found a piece of licorice.  Joe was interrupted by Mammoth saying, we already found the destination of the piece of licorice, and we already used the other flashlight but we didn’t use the flashlight with the door on it so the map must lead to a door, but where is the door that the map is trying to lead us to?”  Said Mammoth. “We’re on the maps path right now,” said Jake.

They kept following the map until they were so close to the door that they thought it was right in front of them.  “Look, there is a lever on the wall,”said Mammoth.  They knocked on the door and there was no answer so they went in and immediately the door shuts behind them and it was locked and a millisecond later lights turn on and they jumped to their feet.

The Lucky Escape

If you haven’t read parts 1,2, and 3 you won’t know what’s going on.

“This is terrible,” said Joe.   “Look,” said Mammoth.  They found a rock boat floating on the lava.  They were heading straight towards it.  Then they fell into it.  “At least we’re not dead,” said Mammoth.  Then they heard something from behind them and looked around to see rope falling behind them.  “That must’ve been the rope that was going to fall with us,” said Joe.  Meanwhile where Lord Licorice was he heard a bell.  “Oh, they must have fallen into the lava, but if they didn’t I’m going to send some guards after those chumps, and get them once and for all,” said Lord Licorice.  

When the guards came back they reported an empty cage stuck on the point, and the hungry gun missing, and guards lying on the floor dead of starvation.  “No, they probably escaped,” said Lord Licorice.  He checked the spy cameras.   “No, they’re on the rock boat close to escaping me,” said Lord Licorice.  He sent about 20 guards after them, and he sent 10 guards in the secret tunnel in case they get in there.  Meanwhile Joe and Mammoth were about to crash into a wooden wall.  When they did it was hollow, and Joe pushed it and part of the wall fell down. “A secret tunnel!, said Joe.

“Guards!, said Mammoth.  They escaped the guards by going into the tunnel and closed the door.  Then they got to a fork.  They heard guards coming both ways.  They quickly snuck into the left tunnel and pretended they were a statue.  When the guards passed by they started running the opposite direction.  Then Mammoth stepped onto a stick and it broke in half.  One guard said, “what was that?  The guards quickly came over to where they were so they pretended they were statues again.  They stopped right where they were and the guards were looking around, and 1 guard saw them and said, “I don’t remember this statue here.”  Just then both of them knew they were in trouble.

They took them and started carrying them back to Lord Licorice to see if he recognized them.   Mammoth saw a rock so he picked it up and put it where the guard was holding him and slipped out, and he did the same for Joe too.  They started running the opposite direction the guards did.  Until they got to another fork.  They went right this time.  While they were walking they heard guards say, “they escaped.  So they started running.  They saw a doorknob and they opened it. They knew the guards were getting closer because their voices were getting louder.

Then they came to 4 paths.  They went on 1 path and saw a door they opened and saw that they were back home.  The only problem was that they were stuck in the hole and heard the guards getting closer.  They jumped from the doorknob to the top of the hole and then hid so if the guards opened the door they wouldn’t see them. When the guards came they didn’t see them so they went back.  The guards went back and told Lord Licorice that they escaped.  “Don’t worry, I have a plan, said Lord Licorice.  Meanwhile it was nighttime when Mammoth and Joe got back to their house.  When they woke up in the morning Joe said to Mammoth,” we have to go back to the candy house of clues!

The Close Survival

“Oh, no,” said Mammoth.  “We have to hide,” said Joe.  They started running, but then they got cornered by a wall.  “We’re done for,” said Mammoth. They started climbing the wall over

to the key.  They got it, and climbed over to the cage.  They opened the cage but then fell down into a deep hole.  Then they heard them put 5 layers of metal on top of them, and they saw a bomb drop into the hole.

The bomb was set for 10 minutes.  “We have to get out of here,” said Joe.  “Here’s your little friend too,”  said Lord Licorice.  “They’ll never know,”  said Lord Licorice.  “Never know what?”   Joe said in confusement.  “This mystery just keeps getting weirder, and weirder,” said Mammoth.  The bomb was now set for 9 min.  “I think I hear guards above us,” said Mammoth.  “I have an idea, we can dig a hole up to where the guards do then dig a hole and go inside and cover it up when the bomb explodes it will go up the whole, and knock down the guards then we escape,” said Joe.

They did Joe’s plan.  When the bomb exploded it knocked down the guards, and they escaped.  “Wow that was awesome,” said Mammoth as they were running.  Just then Joe tripped and tripped Mammoth.  The other person didn’t notice and kept running till they escaped.  Then Lord Licorice came, and captured them.  He put them in a cage and threw the key in the lava.  Then he put them hanging on a rope above lava and took a timer and when it ringed a knife would cut the rope and they would fall into the lava.

He set the timer for 48 hours.  “If you want to escape you should stop thinking about it, you are in the middle of a circle with no way to get out, but if somehow you do escape the lava there are guards surrounding you, but if you want to escape good luck you have 2 days,” said Lord Licorice.  Then he was off.  “We’ll have to think of a plan,” said Mammoth.  Then Joe looked up and saw all Lord Licorces creations, he hated Lord Licorice so he threw a stone at 1 of his inventions, but he accidently threw it too hard and it knocked it over, and it fell into his hands.

It said,” The hungry gun.” He read the instructions and they said,” Shoot somebody with it and they will get so hungry they can’t help it.”  Just then an idea went to Mammoth’s mind.  “ I Have an idea, we can shoot all the guards with the hungry gun and they will go away to try to get something to eat then we will shake the cage and it will break on that point and we will fall out and escape,” said Joe.  “Let’s wait til midnight,”  said Mammoth.  Mammoth said this because he knew guards would switch, and the guards on duty in the day would be asleep, so if they escaped and the guards saw them they wouldn’t have much help and it would be easier to escape.

They looked up the clock.  “Hey Mammoth, we only have 20 hours left,” said Joe.  “Don’t worry we have 3 hours til midnight.  3 hours passed by and Mammoth saw the guards switching.  “Ok, let’s wait til they’re all in position, then we’ll escape,” said Mammoth.  When all the guards were in position Joe began shooting them with the hungry gun.  They heard complaints saying, “Why do we have to starve just because of these stupid kids?”  “I’m so hungry.”  Then they all ran to eat.  “Now,” said Mammoth. They started shaking the cage, until it reached the point and it broke the cage, but they didn’t jump out in time and they started falling down to the lava.

Candy House Of Clues

They saw nothing.  “ I swear I heard something,”  said Mammoth.  “Me too,” said Joe.  “Wait, I still have the flashlight,” said Mammoth.  He shined it in the bushes.  “Nothing, he must have gotten away somehow,” said Mammoth.  “But how, there is no way out,” said Joe.  “Let’s go to bed,” said Mammoth.  The next day Joe, and Mammoth woke up, and kept exploring.  They climbed a hill, and Joe saw this weird house.  “Let’s go,” said Joe.  “Yeah,” said Mammoth.

When they got to the house it was locked.  “Wait, it has the same symbol the flashlight does,” Said Joe. They shined the flashlight at the lock, and the door opened.  They went inside, and saw lots of candies.  They looked behind a candy, and they saw a clue.  It was another symbol, different from the one they already found.  “There must be something else to this,”  said Mammoth.  “There could be another flashlight,”  said Joe.

They looked behind another piece of candy, and found the flashlight.  “There it is,”  said Mammoth.  They took it and turned shined it on the symbol.  Then a door opened, and they went down the stairs and heard a creepy sound. When they were going down they both took a flashlight that they had out to help them see.  All around them was just candy and more candy and even more candy. They saw a piece of paper.

            It said, Leo Licorices Will.  They grabbed the will, but then they heard an earthquake.  “Run!” said Mammoth.  They escaped just in time.  “Let’s get out of this place,” fast!”  Said Joe.  “Wait, we found a flashlight, and a symbol, there has to be something else,”said Mammoth.  Just then they heard the sound they heard last night.  It sounded like help.  “Remember last night when we heard someone calling help,”  said Joe.  “Yeah,” said Mammoth.  “When we looked inside we found a doorknob,” said Joe.  “Let’s follow the sound and see if we can find a secret door,” said Mammoth.  

They followed the sound, and it kept getting louder and louder till they were close enough. It seemed like it was right next to them.  Then it suddenly stopped.  “What,” said Joe.  “Look, there’s a doorknob on the wall,”  said Mammoth.  Let’s open it and see what’s inside shall we,” said Joe.  “Yeah,” said Mammoth in a worried way.  The door was locked. “Is there someone in here?,” Asked Joe.  There was no answer.  Just then the door opened by itself, and nobody came out.  They went in as quietly as they could.  They snuck in and hid behind the door.

They saw a sign that said,“ home of Lord Licorice”.  “This must be Lord Licorices kingdom,” said Joe.  They snuck closer to his guards, and saw somebody trapped inside.  “So that was who was calling help,” said Mammoth.  They saw a key right next to Lord Licorices.  “The key!”  said Joe in a loud voice.  They heard feet rushing towards them.

      First, one awesome thing we did with my family last year was go to Virginia and have lots of fun!  We went swimming and played tag build a lot of big sand castles and just relaxed.  Since my family has a big interest in fishing we took our boat along with us and caught lots of fish!  When I say lots, I mean lots.  Are cousins and friends went to so we played volley ball, hide and seek and a whole bunch of other stuff!  We also went and had lunch together at the little house we were renting.  We had pillow fights with are brothers and went to the pier at night and played games and fished as well.  It was a awesome vacation at Virginia!

      Next, another fun thing we did with my family last year was go to Ohio to are cousins wedding, and to see are relatives that live in Ohio.  We first went to our relatives house to sleep over the night since we came late.  But, we also sat at the table drinking tea or coffee and talked about what’s going on and stuff.  The next day, we got dressed and went to the wedding.  At the wedding there was food and drinks everywhere, it was like a magical world of awesomeness.  After the wedding, we went back to our relatives house and got everything packed up and ready to go. When it was dark outside we said bye and left home.

                   My Favorite And Most Wonderful Activity!

Hi, today I will tell you about my favorite and most wonderful activity fishing and why it is my favorite activity.  My first reason fishing is my favorite activity is that you get to have a wonderful time with your family and friends.  The next reason fishing is my favorite activity is you are able to relax and it isn’t that crowded when you are fishing.  The third reason fishing is my favorite activity is you are very hyper and full of energy when the fish is biting.  The last reason fishing is my favorite activity is you get to go home after the relaxing and also wonderful day and eat the fish you caught.

First, fishing is my favorite activity because you get to have a wonderful time with your family and friends for example.  You can play tag or go ice skating with everyone.  You can also play hide and seek when it gets darker.  Or you can sit down and have fun laugh or speak to each other.  Some people like to just sit quietly and chill.  I like to run around on the slippery ice after my baby brother or my older brothers.  We all have a snowball fight when we are not working and we make teams.

Next, fishing is my favorite activity is you can relax and it isn’t that crowded when you are fishing.  When you are able to relax and breath in fresh air you feel very good and it is healthy for you.  When it isn’t crowded it is nice quiet and peaceful around you.  When it is crowded it is very loud and you feel a little bit weird and sometimes embarrassed with people all around you.  Some people are embarrassed because since it is cold you have to put on big jackets so you can feel embarrassed.  But when I do that kind of stuff I feel perfectly fine.

Then,  fishing is my favorite activity because you are very hyper and full of energy when the fish is biting.  When the fish is biting you are full of energy because it has a lot of action running to one of the rods and pulling the fish up.  You are hyper because when you see one of the bobbers go down that means there is a fish taking your bait.  It can also be a little upsetting because you can loose a fish or the fish is not biting.  When The fish is not biting when I am fishing, I don’t get angry because I still get a lot of fun with my family.

Last,  fishing is my favorite activity because you get to go home after the awesome relaxing day and eat the fish you caught.  I like to go home because it is a long walk and I was running to the rods if the bobber was down.  Another reason I like to go home is that I am hungry and there’s fresh fish that my mom is going to cook.  I also like to go home after fishing because it sometimes late when the fish starts to bite.  These are the reasons My favorite activity is fishing!

                                                                 The Mystery of Chocolate Fudge Mountain

Once upon a time there was a poor family, Robert, Brooke, Samantha, and Jeff.  They were a very nice family.  Since they were poor they only had enough money to pay for everything they needed to survive.  Then, one morning the family heard that there is a treasure on a mountain called Mount Everest.  They found out Mount Everest is the biggest mountain on earth.  Lots of people have gone to the mountain searching for the treasure and never returned.  Somebody found the treasure back in 1983 but when they were coming back they dropped the treasure and it fell into the core of the mountain.  After that people were scared to go find the treasure.  The treasure remains in the core of the mountain to this day.  The mountain is 89,623 meters high.

The family decided they would try to find the treasure because they were poor and hungry.  They got as much food as possible for the trip and headed off.  They lived 526 miles from Mount Everest, so they found a stray horse and decided to take it so it would help carry all the materials.  It took them about 1 and a half years to get there, but they did get there.   When they got to the mountain they got off their horse and walked toward the mountain.  They saw a sign that said, “Danger do not enter,” but they entered anyway.  They found a path and decided to follow it, but when Robert stepped on, it felt like it was sticky so he touched it and said, “this is Fudge and Chocolate”. “What no way that’s impossible,” said Samantha. “See for yourself”. Then the whole family touched it and said , “this is fudge I don’t believe it?”  “I told you” said Robert.  “Let’s keep walking and see what we can find”,  said Robert.

As they were walking Jeff said, “this is cool, right Mom” “ Mom?”  “Dad, Mom’s gone.”  Said Jeff.  Then they all started calling, “Mom, where are you?” They went where Mom was then they fell into a deep hole in the mountain.  Jeff said, “this probably leads to the treasure!” “I’m not sure about that Said Robert.  When they stopped falling they saw a big scoop of chocolate ice cream with hot fudge on top.  Then behind the giant scoop of ice cream came a king.  He said “I rule this mountain, and soon the rest of the world, HAHAHA!”  “Now my servants shall take care of you.”  They were all Chocolate Bars, and were 3 times bigger than us! They ran as fast as they could.  “A cherry”, said Jeff.”  He took it and said “See ya” Then he threw it at them.  “Bullseye”  He said, but more chocolate servants were coming and they didn’t find any other Cherries.  The guards were coming from behind the giant scoop of ice cream.  They found a huge sprinkle they all heaved.  They picked it up, and threw it at the giant ice cream cone.  “No”, yelled the king.  That is the only source of living.  All the guards and the king started to shrink and then they all disappeared.

The king turned into a scroll.  They picked it up.  It said:  “1 down 2 to go, to get your treasure, don’t go slow.  Or you will go.  You’ve got a while yet, 2 days to be exact.  If you don’t make it, you can’t take it. You’ll still be poor, or poor no more.”  “What does it mean?” Said Samantha.  “It means we don’t have much time.”  Said Robert.  “Mom”, said Jeff.  “Hi guys”, said, Brooke.  “We defeated a king and his servants, and found this note,”  said Robert.  “We have to keep going,”  said Jeff. They kept going up fudge mountain.  When they got ¼ up the mountain, they stopped for a break.

They took a 20 minute break.  Then they kept going up Fudge mountain. The trip up the mountain was smooth at first, but the higher they went  the more fudge there is.  All of a sudden they heard a big boom.  “Avalanche!!”  Said Jeff.  They all ran as fast as they could, but the avalanche was getting bigger and closer.  Samantha said, “ there’s a cave.”  They all went into the cave.  “That was close.”  Said Samantha.  After the avalanche passed, they kept going up the mountain.  When they got halfway up the mountain they saw a bridge. It was a shortcut up the mountain.  When they were about to get on the bridge.  An evil chocolate angel appeared.  “You have to answer 3 questions correctly.” Said the evil angel. “If you get 1 wrong I will throw all of you into the fudge, chocolate hole, and you will be stuck in the hole forever.  The 1st question he asked them was:  “How big is Chocolate, fudge mountain?  “89,623 meters high” Said Jeff.   “1st question correct”  The evil angel said in an annoyed voice.  “What do people call this mountain even though they don’t know what it’s real name is?”  “Mount Everest.”  Said Brooke.  “Yes”, said the evil angel.  “If you get this question right then I will disappear for a long time”   “This isn’t a question it’s a task, you have to find a scroll that has a poem on it.”  “We have that scroll!”  Said Robert.  He gave the angel the scroll.  “NO!!!”  “You haven’t seen the last of me!”

They took the shortcut that lead them ¾ up the mountain.  “Look”, Said Jeff.  “There’s a trampoline and lots of trampolines following it, we can bounce up the mountain.”  “Wait a minute.” Said Robert.  “This looks like a trap”  “Let’s just walk the rest of the way.”  20 minutes later they found a timer it said how long they had.  They had 5 hours they were so close to the top of the mountain.  They kept walking up the mountain.  Then they finally reached the top of the mountain.  There was this huge hole.  There was a rope on the top of the hole.  They climbed down the rope.  When they reached the bottom they found a huge chocolate bear that was 40 times the size of them.

“Who do we have here.”  Said the bear.  “So you’re after the treasure.” “I devoured that fool in 1983.”  “If you beat me you get the treasure, but you won’t.”  “Rest in peace.”  Then he dropped a bomb.  That was set for a minute.  HAHAHA.  Then he started to climb up the hole.  We need something to handle the bomb.  “Cherry”  Said Jeff.  They got the cherry, and put the bomb inside.  “Cherry bomb”  Said Robert.  They threw it at the monster with 2 seconds left it exploded, and exploded the monster.  The treasure fell in the hole.  They got it and climbed up the rope.  They saw the trampolines that were all over the mountain.  “Oh” said Jeff. “The trampolines weren’t for going up the mountain, they are for going down.”  “That’s why the guy in 1983 got devoured, he didn’t use the trampolines,”  said Jeff.  They bounced down the mountain.  When they got back to their house, their adventure was all over the news.  The news person asked them, “you can name the mountain anything you want.”  “Chocolate, fudge, mountain,” said Jeff.  Why, “Chocolate, fudge, mountain.” “It’s made out of chocolate, and fudge” “See for yourself.”  Said Jeff with a smile on his face.  They were never poor again, and give some of the treasure to other people that are poor.  And they lived happily ever after.

       The Adventures in Candy Land Chapter 1

Starting the mystery

Once upon a time in candy land there was a city.  It’s name was candy city.  It was a peaceful city.  In candy city there lived two boys.  Their names were Mammoth and Joe.   One day when Mammoth and Joe were watching the news and they saw homes destroyed.  The news person said, “There is a villain coming and destroying everything, but who is this villain? Nobody knows.”  Then their mom said, “ha, that is just a legend”.  Their mom told it was about a very big villain named Lord Licorice.  He turned evil by his sister Lady Licorice.  His name used to be Leo Licorice.  He was so jealous because his sister Lady Licorice was the president of candy land and he wasn’t.  He turned his back on his sister and became evil.  “Ok kids let’s turn off the TV and have some dinner remember it’s Skittle Sunday”.  said their mom.  After they ate they went to bed.  Mammoth said to Joe,  “I hope this villain isn’t real”. Then they went to bed, or did they?  Joe kept hearing stuff, and Mammoth heard it too.  Then they walked towards the sound and came across something huge.  It was a treasure chest.  They looked inside it and they found rubies and gold.  Mammoth found out that they were paper.  “It looks like a trick.” Said Joe.

Mammoth found a piece of paper that said” Lord Licorices money”  Joe said ”I knew it Lord Licorice is real.”   “Of Course not, someone just probably just put that in there to trick us”  Then they looked over and saw another treasure chest.  Inside that one was a note it said.  Watch out don’t get tricked,  tick tick goes the clock you better prepare before time runs out, I’m not kidding it’s not a doubt, you will be.  “What does it mean” Joe said “Whatever it means it’s not going to be good.”  Mammoth said with a frightened face. “Let’s hope it’s good then”. Joe said “It’s not” said Mammoth.  “Let’s go upstairs and get more information from the TV”, said Joe.  But before they could take a step they heard that sound again but this time it sounded like help!  They followed the sound again until they found a big hole.  Then the sound stopped.  Inside that big hole looked like dirt(Cinnamon) but on the bottom Mammoth saw something it looked like a door knob.  He told Joe.  “This mystery keeps getting weirder, and weirder.”  Said Mammoth.  “Should we investigate?”  Just then they heard a voice that said, “don’t even think about it”, “mom?”  Said Mammoth.  “You two go to bed now!”  “But”  “nope no but’s to bed now”! Fine, we will go.  When Mammoth was in bed he kept thinking about the poem.  He had to find out more so he snuck into Joe’s room, and told him his idea.  Joe agreed, but it will be hard to sneak past mother.  They snuck down stairs and almost got seen, but they didn’t.  When they got downstairs they looked around for more clues.  At first the didn’t see anything but, when the looked in the shelves they found a flashlight.

It had a weird symbol.  It was a picture of a piece of licorice.  They shined it on the clue “That’s it!” Said Joe.  I knew there would be another clue when they shined the flashlight they found a map on the poem.  It looked like it started right where they were standing. The map lead outside. So They went outside.  “Are you thinking what I’m thinking”.  Said Mammoth. “No” said Joe.  “There is probably going to be a treasure.”  Said Mammoth.  “The real treasure”. Said Joe.  Just then they heard this voice say “You’ll never find it.  They turned around, and then they saw… To be continued.
