  1. It was a cloudy day in Marshal, New Zealand, where lived a young girl by the name of Carolina Marie Marshal. Carolina was the great-great-great granddaughter of the Founder of the city, Augustus Jack Marshal. The family lived in secret after Augustus Jack founded the city.
    They lived a great and terrible life all together. They knew of secrets that would destroy the world if anyone found out. The monsters that came and went and the aliens that crashed into earth were extraordinary. They sacrificed themselves for DNA testing, brain test, and open surgery where scientists learned all about what kind of life form they were and how they survived in other planets.
    A day came where the monsters and aliens stopped volunteering and started going against their will. Then the mother's of all three worlds-Mother Nature, Mother Underworld, and Mother Universe- stopped all of the madness in the worlds by starting war. They all died. The end

  2. Excellent! Well done! Where did you get the ideas of the names of the characters and the "Mothers?" I would be interested in reading a longer version of this.

  3. If you want a fictional story, I guess I'm going to have to give you one of my journals from sixth grade (condensed version)

    There once was a purple pony named Patrick who lived in the arid land of elves. He ate from the purple cotton candy trees, drank from the purple powerade river, and walked on the purple laffy taffy grass. All was good in the life of the purple ponies, except one thing. The purple ponies could not cross the purple powerade river because across it was the territory of the purple haired elves. The purple ponies did not enjoy this because the purple haired elves had three purple plum trees on the other side of the purple powerade river, and purple plums were the purple ponies favorite foods, but they only had one purple plum tree on their side of the purple powerade river.

    One day the purple pony ventured to the other side of the purple powerade river to pick the perfect purple plum off the purple plum tree, but he had gotten caught by a purple haired elf. The purple pony and the purple haired elf made a deal. If the purple ponies could beat the purple haired elves at purple plum dodgeball, then the purple ponies could have all of the land, but if the purple haired elves won, they got all of the land.

    The purple plum dodgeball game lasted nearly two hours, and it all came down to Patrick the purple pony and the most notorious and hated purple haired elf in all of the land, Peter. After nearly thirty second of both of them standing there and faking throws, they both threw their purple plums. Both purple plums had perfect projectile. They were each getting closer and closer, when all of a sudden the purple plums hit each other. One of them went directly up, and one of them went directly down. The high purple plum floated in the air for a while, and started to head back down. Peter was standing right underneath the purple plum poised to catch it, and a gust of wind caught the purple plum and led it safely into Patrick's hands. All of the land now belongs to the purple ponies who happily eat their purple plums whenever they want.

    The End ( the original was much better, and longer, but I lost it :( )

  4. Standing in the center of a mass of bloody and motionless bodies. This man's name was Kratos. Ever since he killed Aries, he was known as the God of War, and was out for revenge against his father, Zeus, for tricking him in to killing his wife and child. He would not stop until he killed his father and any other person, god or man, that stood in his way.
    He fought long and hard to reach the top of Mt. Olympus, only to be killed and sent to the depths of the Underworld to deal with Hades. After Kratos killed a god, he would take a piece of them with him, kind of like a souvenir. He would use the head of Helios to reveal hidden pathways, the boots of Hermes to increase his speed, and the wings of Icarus to fly. After battling with Hades and taking his life, Kratos had taken Hades' weapons, which could summon souls of various soldiers and creatures to fight for him.
    Once he had taken out every other god, Kratos finally reached Zeus. A long and epic battle had then ensued, leaving the body of a now faceless Zeus, and the blood covered body of Kratos at the end. The ghost of Athena appeared to Kratos and began speaking. Kratos had come close to killing Zeus in the past, but Athena had jumped in the way and taken the blade to the stomach for him. Athena and Kratos talked for a while, then Kratos took the last step in his revenge by plunging the blade; the one meant for Zeus that had struck Athena down, into his own stomach. As the light dimmed from Kratos' eyes, the storm raging in the skies cleared, and the floods raging down below ceased. All was peaceful once again.
