The Video Game Theft (part 2)

I thought maybe I could surround him like birds.  That was probably pretty dumb but I tried it. I got my friends and we tried it. It worked I got the game and I ran home while my friends fought the olympic runner. Somehow I forgot to take off the picture and name. I could’ve done that the next day but I didn’t and that’s when I threw it in the trash again. I remembered this time I ran out and tried to grab it but it was gone again. I saw him running I jumped on his shoulders and held on as tight as I possibly could. Then I saw he threw the game I jumped off his shoulders and reached as far as I could possibly reach and I made the catch. I fell on the ground and ran faster than I’ve ever run in my life.

          Once I got to my house street I screamed “Unlock the door mom.” I heard all of the doors in the neighborhood unlock at the same time. Once I got to my house I threw a piece of my ripped pants that had the same color of the game. He ran after the ripped pants and I opened the the door and slammed it closed.

  1. Nick, I’ve read both your Video Game Theft action-packed stories. I could really imagine this part: “I saw him running I jumped on his shoulders and held on as tight as I possibly could. Then I saw he threw the game I jumped off his shoulders and reached as far as I could possibly reach and I made the catch.” It’s so exciting to see your use of strong, vivid verbs, such as “jumped, worked, surround, grab, slammed. I love writing stories too. Every November I participate in National Novel Writing Month and write a 50,000 word story. My students write between 6,000 and 25,000 words– they set their own goals. Seems like you’re going to be an author too. Thanks for sharing. Ms Edwards
