We went inside and brainstormed, time was of the essence. We needed that tree house for battle, but we also needed to rid it of the wasps. They buzzed at us mockingly as we watched safely from inside, brewing a plan. After a period of about half an hour, it finally came to us. Sly’s mother had a large garden out back, and this meant she also had a large garden hose.

Ouch! I was riding my bike in my neighborhood and I came across a hose. A simple green garden hose used for watering trees and bushes. But to me, It looked dangerous. I rode over lots of hoses before, but this one was bigger. I crazily went to swerve away from the hose, but it was too late. THUMP! I hit the hose and flew up into the air about two feet. “UH OH!” I was as scared as a pig waiting to be slaughtered. My bright orange Riprider handlebars swerved to the side so one side was facing me.…
