THE EGG

by Thomas F.

Joe and Jim were about to go to college. When they got there they met two boys named Greg and Tom. Their rooms were right next to each other. The next day there was a concert. Thomas went to get tickets from his house. He had to go through the woods. He saw an egg. He wasn’t able to figure out what it came from. He grabbed the tickets and the egg and ran as fast as he could. A student about Tom’s age did research on the egg. “It’s a Long Neck’s egg,” he told them. Thomas was so surprised. The Long Neck dinosaur was extinct. He went to his friends with the news and they were all shocked. When a month passed, the unbelievable happened. The egg hatched!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The boys watched the dinosaur grow bigger and bigger. It wasn’t hurting anyone. Secret scientists found out about it and sent this dinosaur away from earth into space. The spaceship sent the dinosaur directly to Saturn.

Meanwhile the principal went into the science lab and saw the eggshell that the dinosaur hatched from.
