I can not sleep at all. I toss and I turn but I still can't sleep.If you're wondering who I am I'm Taylor.I'm 10 years old and I have one stupid brother Jarrod.I hate him, he always plays stupid pranks on me all the time. Twenty four seven. It's really annoying and that's why I hate him so much.
Anyway back to my sleeping proplems. "uh-huh! I have an idea!" I scream as softly as I can. Mum takes these sleeping pills before she goes to bed so, why can't I? so I sneak into my mum and dad's bedroom. Luckily they're fast asleep. So I sneak up to the bed-side table and pick up the little bottle and read the caption: CAUTION MAY CAUSE NIGHTMARES OR UNUSUAL DREAMS. But do I care? No.
So I take 3 and go back to bed. Just as I laid down I fell asleep; and then two seconds later I wake up in the middle of the desert! except it had buildings and I think I can see five cars and two boats boats lying on the sand. It's almost a modern city like Melbourne mixed with desert. "HELLO! is any body here," I shout "Where the heck am I!" No one answered, so I just decide to explore this wierd place. In the distance I could see an elephant. "What the heck, what's that doing here". Ignoring the elephant I keep walking. On the way I spot other wierd things: like a grave yard of smashed up plasma T.V's, a piano, a couch, a robot "How the heck did that get there?" I thought. And just when I thought I saw the wierdest stuff I saw a life size, in the suit, with a light saber: Darth Vader.
"WHAT THE **** IS HE DOING HERE!" "Things just keep geting weirder and weirder in this place. I try to forget about Darth Vader but I can't because he is folowing me and it's kinda creepy. So then I stop and turn around and shouted "What do you want!" then he said in that really deep voice like in the movies " Have you ever thought about how your going to get home""no" "Well all you have to do is say is I want to go home and Darth Vader rules" I hesitate then say "fine" So I say "I want to go home and Darth Vader rules".
I'm lying in bed "Oh it was all a dream". THE END
