Kids, let me tell you a story from when I was younger. I loved how my life was going. I had many friends, was at the top of h class, and was the star of the swim team at my school. I could swim faster than all of the other kids in The state of Hawaii. I was a mermaid; I swam so well (metaphor). I loved to swim, and did so every day, since my house was right next to the ocean. I had a few dolphin friends so I said hi to them, just like I did every other day. I began to swim, then everything changed.
I didn’t recognize the water I was in, and I was going slower than normal. I was confused, so I looked back to the land. It looked similar, so I continued swimming. I saw a dolphin that looked …show more content…
Many things flew from my fingers, but I couldn’t control when it happened or what came out when I tried. They all confused me, because none of them were regular fish. They looked similar to fish that existed on earth, but they had a twist. Some looked like a mixture of a shrimp and a catfish. Once, when I was eating dinner, a creature came out that looked like a mixture of a whale and a walrus. Creak! (onomatopoeia) The table groaned(personification) under its weight. It landed on my food and I was very upset, because it was my favorite type of soup. I did discover that I could get the bigger ones to disappear after five minutes, so I didn’t have gross fish lying around my house. The tiny ones stayed, but I just ignored them. I kept trying, but I couldn’t get the hang of my powers.
I continued trying until I went to sleep. There was one tiny creature that kept trying to escape, but I just ignored it. When I woke up, I got some breakfast and watched the news. I was quite worried when the news anchor announced that there were rampant fish aliens in the city pool. I decided that I must try my best to save the world. When I got to the city pool, everyone was screaming. I focused as hard as I could to make the fish aliens disappear, but they were too tiny. They were multiplying very quickly, and there was nothing I could do to stop …show more content…
I spawned so many, they could have covered the globe(hyperbole)! The nice fish aliens ate the evil fish aliens, and I saved the world. Immediately after I saved them, I was featured on international news. I was on cloud nine (idiom). I had always wanted to be famous, but I never expected it to happen in this way. I wanted to be famous for swimming, but being famous for saving the world was good enough. I managed to get control over my powers, and eventually figured out how to get rid of it. I continued to have a long, happy life. And that, kids, is the story of how I had the power to spawn fish
