All of the sudden an enormous monster appeared! It said something John didn't understand. The translater imported in his ear said it said, "GET AWAY FROM THIS GRAVE OR I WILL DESTROY YOU!!!!" He reached for his pistil while wading in the water. He shot it many times but the bullets just bounced off. He scrambled for his rocket laucher, he shot it. It blew him all the way to the other side but he still didn't know if it was dead, then he saw something stir in the murky water... Then he found that he was terribly wounded! He went on. Five minutes later he found yet another water slide. At the end of the water slide he found himself in a pit! Then the water started rising it was about to reach the ceiling! He almost drowned! After that the water dropped faster than an Indy race car. A latch opened. He fell into the last but fastest water slides yet! He ended up the bottom of a lake gulch. He walked around nervously. He was lost. Pretty soon he discovered the porthole! He thanked God and jolted into the porthole. He went home. His wife and son woke up surprised when he got home. John made a fake story when they asked him," what's it like?" Then they ate meatloaf and went to bed. The next Morning John woke up to an early start. The family went to the mall to buy shoes. When they got home John asked if he could explore Adak some more. Marianne of course said yes. So he quickly but stealthily got his things and left. Going back into the porthole wondering why he's doing this. He was looking for something besides the building. Walking miles before seeing a city for these primitive beasts. It seemed to be a modern village. Taking 5 pictures from different angles. He got an idea he thinks he knows why his father sent him there. He thinks that he sent him there to take pictures and send to the government and have a news conference about it. He ran away from the village and out of the porthole. When he got home they hugged him. He said, "I'm going to visit my friend Mario okay?"(A friend who happened to be at Alaska.) Marianne answered," Oh fine." He left, he told Mario the real story. Mario promised not to tell any body. John told about the film, the dream, and every thing else. They together planned a news conference. They decided to call CNN, CNN asked where they lived they told him. They said they'll be there at 10:30 they agreed. At 10:30 John snucked to Mario's house. They told CNN everything, they left. John and Mario went to bed. The next morning Marianne turned on the T.V. while John slept, the news was everywhere! Marianne woke John up and said,"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!!" "what" John answered softly. "You know the porthole!" spoke Marianne. John lied,"I wanted it to be a surprise for you so you would know how brave I am." "That's the most sweetest thing you ever did to me" , cooed Marianne. And that was the end of the universe between, 45 years later Mike got married and had two sons named Joseph Barnes and Alex Barnes and the porthole was closed forever! But that's another story! �1999 By: Joseph Herron |
