An evil sofa from "The Magician's Secret (that has very good hearing).

By: Rich Wang

​ 

  “Die, you dumb chair!” Jeffery shouted. “Yeah! Take this!” Chester shouted. “Eat a laser beam!” BOOM! The chair exploded, and a mechanical beep sounded. Level 49 complete! It was the year 2028, and “real-life video games” had been invented. This meant that if you put on a special set of goggles, you could run around your house shooting down things like exploding TNT, zombies, and magic household items that wanted to eat you. Of, course, you didn’t ACTUALLY destroy them, you just destroyed them in the video game. Jeffery and Chester had been playing: “The Magician’s Secret” for about 5 hours this morning, and they were on Level 50, the last level, when suddenly, their mom shouted:

  “Time for dinner kids!” ”But mom,” they complained. “No exceptions, besides Rebecca who’s upstairs doing her homework!” Jeffery and Chester rolled their eyes. They knew Rebecca was upstairs playing “Sneak Snake, but they didn’t tell their mom. Rebecca had made them promise that they wouldn’t tell her. After Lunch, the boys had to go to debate, painting, French, and programming classes at their weekend school. They complained to their moms that they should be able to play more video games, but she told them to go to bed. After all, it was 9:30 pm. “Good night!” they said to their mother. “Man, I wish we could’ve played The Magician’s Secret longer,” Jeffery said. “I do too, I mean, we were on the last level! I guess we’ll beat it tomorrow. Chester said with a sigh. Then they fell asleep.

  “Psst, Chester, wake up!” Jeffery said. “I couldn’t sleep. Something’s inside the house making noises. Probably a rat.” Chester woke up, and they were on a hunt for the rat. As they walked into the living room, they saw something horrid. Just like in The Magician’s Secret, there were magic human eating household items EVERYWHERE. Except this wasn’t a dream, or their video games. This was real life. “I think we should tell Mom!” Chester hissed to Jeffery. However, Chester had forgotten that when furniture comes alive, they have very good hearing (he had read about it in The Magician’s Secret Wiki). “I have a good plan,” Jeffery said nervously. “What?!” Chester stammered. “RUN!!!!!!” Jeffery shouted. They ran around and around the house. Unfortunately, they were tiring. The furniture were not. Jeffery tried to throw a bucket at the chairs to buy time, but unfortunately, it simplify bounced off the chair. “Die pesky humans!” the chair shouted. Quick! “Back into our room!” Chester panted. “Why?” Jeffery huffed “Because I have an idea!” Chester said, gasping. They sprinted into to the room and quick as a cheetah, he had locked the door. “Hey Jeffery, haven’t you realized that this is like The Magician’s Secret level 25?” Chester asked. “Of course!” Jeffery said. Well get the goggles that allow us to play The Magician’s Secret!” Chester exclaimed. “What are you- ohhhh!” Jeffery said. Jeffery found the goggles, and they both put them on. They turned on The Magicians Secret and clicked: “Fun Mode”. This was a mode that they could just shoot randomly around the house with their virtual weapons. However, this time they were going to actually be shooting something. “Are you sure that this is going to work?” Jeffery asked. “No, but get ready to fire in 3, 2, 1, 0!” Chester shouted as he opened the door. They both started blasting their furniture. “Wow! This actually works! Chester said. “I know!” Jeffery said as he made a sofa disintegrate. “Phew! We destroyed all the minions! But you know what’s next don’t you Jeffery?” “Jeffery nodded and said: “The boss. The Magician. Except this time, if we lose, I think we die.”

  “Why hello there little children!” A voice suddenly said. Jeffery and Chester whirled around and saw The Magician. Luckily for them, this was only level 25 and not level 50, so the magician wasn’t going full power. “I suppose your ready to be destroyed!” The Magician shouted as he charged. He charged at Jeffery first. Jeffery knew what tricks The Magician was going to use, since he and Chester had already beat this level before, so he pretended to attempt to shoot The Magician with his laser, but at the last moment, whirled around and blasted the magician, who had teleported behind him and tried to trick him. Enough games! The Magician shouted (Who only had half his health left since Jeffery had upgraded his gun to be very strong.) die! He shot a bolt of lighting at Chester, who easily dodged it and shot The Magician with his rail gun. The Magician had 1 HP left. Unfortunately, Jeffery and Chester’s weapons both took a while to reload, so they had to avoid fire, lightning, and rocks at them. Finally, Jeffery’s laser reloaded, and with a carefully aimed shot, destroyed the magician. “Wait. What just happened wasn’t real,” Chester said. “ Can’t be. No way.” Jeffery firmly. “But… it just happened!” Chester exclaimed. “Anyways, what time is it?” BEEP BEEP BEEP went their alarm clock. “I guess it’s 7:00 am!” said Jeffery.

  Suddenly, their mom walked in. “I woke up to hear a cracking noise,” their Mom said. “And- WHY DID YOU DESTROY ALL THE FURNITURE? HAVE YOU BEEN PLAYING VIDEO GAMES ALL NIGHT???????” “Err, you see mom we were being-“ Chester tried to say, but he was cut off by his mom screaming: “OH MY GOSH I’M GOING TO KILL YOU BOS DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH THIS IS GOING TO COST TO FIX?” “Err, 5,000 dollars?” Jeffery asked. “YOU”RE WAY OFF IT’S 5,000 DOLLARS AND 1 CENT AND I’m GOING TO- sorry, I lost my temper. Let’s eat breakfast. Luckily, their mom was very lenient and didn’t kill the boys. After school (it was a Monday) Chester told Jeffery: “Man, that was scary and cool at the same time!” “I know!” Jeffery exclaimed. “I wonder, how did that happen?” Chester grinned and said: “We’ll find out eventually. Oh, we’ll find out eventually….”

The Cursor is on the left, and Daniel Poot is on the right

By: Rich Wang

  Daniel Poot, or Daniel Poop, as his friends called him, had a very sad life. He had messed with the wrong person (someone who called himself The Cursor). He had said: “Your nose is ugly,” to The Cursor. “You dare mess with me???!!!! I am The Cursor! All who mess with me shall feel my wrath!” The Cursor had said. “Uh, OK,” Daniel had said, unimpressed. “Whatsya (what are you) gonna do to me?” ”I curse you so that you’ll always be too short or too high when you are doing something!”

  After returning home, (but not before cussing at The Cursor) Daniel had walked home. It was 9:00 pm, so Daniel went to sleep. After he ate breakfast, Daniel got in his dad’s car to go to school. Well, he tried to get in his dad’s car. When he opened the car door, he grew 16 feet. His dad had said something about a dream of him being so tall, before he had fainted. So, Daniel had told his mom that Dad has fainted, add said that he was going to walk to school. When he was nearly halfway there, he suddenly shrunk form a whooping 16’, to a not so whooping 16mm. After about 5 more hours, he finally got to school, where he was given a tardy slip (he was now back to normal height) and told that his class was at P.E. He quickly ran to the P.E. room, where he saw his class sitting down on the floor, listening to Coach Birdy give directions. Suddenly, there was a flurry of motion to get on the two benches that were about 15 feet across from each other. As he sat down next to his best friend, Carl Newton, he asked: “What are we playing?” “Dodgeball,” Carl replied. Daniel grinned. Dodgeball was his sport. He rocked at it. “After all,” he thought. “What could possibly go wrong?”

William eating ice cream

By: Sage Wang

“Sage, watch William while we go buy some food.” my parents tell me.

“But I’m only eight!” I protested. “And he’s already one!”

“You’re older!” they persisted. “Now GO!” I sighed. “I guess I’ll do it.” I thought to myself.” Suddenly William jumped and ran towards the ice cream machine once he saw it. Then he ran out of sight. I ran to look for him. Unfortunately, William was a pretty decent hider.

“Okay.” I thought to myself. “First step, call 911.” Suddenly when I was just about to run to the front counter, I heard a PLOP, the sound of ice cream spilling. “WILLIAM!” I screamed. “Don’t eat ice cream without paying for it!” But, he ate a whole cup of it. I grabbed him before he could cause any more harm. Then when I was sure things couldn’t get any worse, my parents came back and asked me, “What happened? We told you to watch William…”

I confessed the whole thing. They sighed and took us home. “Well,” I thought to myself, “I am lucky I didn’t lose William forever. He’s a great brother!”

NEVER, EVER gonna happen!!

By: Rich Wang

  Me? For President? No way! Being a president requires many skills, most of which I don’t have. There are many reasons that I can’t be president. It’s just that – I can’t be president!

  A president needs discipline, lots of it! Me? I have about as much discipline as a man who has an interview at 6:00 am and wakes up at 6:00 ---- pm! Another thing presidents have to be is trustworthy. Want to know what happened to me once? I said: ”All I’m going to do is return this scooter to Ray. No playing, no monkey business, nothing!: Turned out, I ended up playing with Ray for 2 hours. See, I can’t be president!

  If I’m president, I won’t be able to play video games anymore. I can’t live without video games! I’ll become a corpse, or become an undead zombie! Also, I LOVE playing chess. If I can’t play chess whenever I want to as president, then I won’t be a president.

  Now that you see why I can’t be president, what about you? Do you have discipline and are you trustworthy? Can you survive without things you like to do every day, like video games or chess? Well, whatever you say, if you ask me to be president, SCRAM!!!!!!!

Me teleporting

By: Rich Wang

  If I could have any superpower, I would have teleportation. You could go anywhere, anytime! Need to travel to Japan? It’ll take you one second to get there! In jail? Just teleport out! Are you’re mom and dad yelling at you? Just teleport to your room!

  If you were fighting a war with teleportation powers, then to win the war, all you’d have to do is teleport behind the opposing army’s general, grab him, and teleport back to your side, along with the other army’s general. Then, after ”your” army had taken care of him/her, you’d just teleport behind the other army, and strike them all down from behind.

  If you were a criminal, you could rob the bank with ease by: 1. Teleporting inside the bank. 2. Grab some money. 3.Teleport home with the money. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all the money in the bank is gone. If you ever got caught, (as I mentioned earlier) all you’d have to do is teleport out of jail!

  Still not convinced that teleportation is the best superpower there is? Well, have you ever wanted to be a gold medal winner? Well, guess what. |Teleport| you won a gold medal in the 100m dash! |Teleport| you won a gold medal in the 400m freestyle (swimming)! |Teleport| you won a gold medal in the high jump competition!

https://www.starcouriernews.com/2023/03/g6foii9   So, you want teleportation now? I wish I could give you that power but… oh no! Police! |Teleport|.

Fast food against healthy food

By: Sage Wang

Sarah grinned happily. “I am so lucky Keria!” Today at my grandma’s house I get to have a fast food lunch! Keria said nothing for a second. Then she started looking at Sarah awkwardly.

“Healthy food is much better!” Keria argued. “Everyone knows that!”

“Oh yeah?” Sarah laughed. “I’m older than you by a month! And everyone knows that older people know more!”

“SO?” Keria screamed. “EVEN MY MOTHER SAYS SO, AND SHE’S 39! OH!”

“OH YEAH?” Sarah screamed back. “MY DAD AGREES WITH ME, AND HE’S 46! OH, SO THERE!”

“BUT MY GRANDMA AGREES WITH ME, AND SHE’S 85! THERE!” Keria shouted in Sarah’s face.

“MY GRANDPA AGREES WITH ME, AND HE’S 91! I WIIN NOW!” Sarah shouted back. It went on like that for a while.

Then, Keria’s mother walked up and stated, “It’s an opinion, girls! It doesn’t matter what you say, you’re both right! Do you fourth grade girls need to go back to kindergarten to learn that?” Both girls’ cheeks turned red. And that day, Keria enjoyed her healthy lunch while Sarah devoured her fast food.

The next day, Keria and Sarah both apologized for arguing and yelling with each other. “It was an opinion!” they both laughed.

“You know, healthy food is pretty good, actually.” Sarah admitted.

“Yeah, fast food is pretty tasty, I guess.” Keria admitted back. Laughing and chuckling, the girls hugged, and set off for home together. “Best friends till the end!” Keria grinned.

“BFF’s, hooray!” Sarah laughed. And the girls hugged again.

Bob. (Well, sort of.)

By: Rich Wang

  Bob had a very sad life. All he did was sleep and eat, 24^7. He couldn’t play with his toys, exercise, or even learn! The reason Bob was restricted to eating and sleeping was because King Queen (Yes, his first name was Queen.) had cursed him with the following spell:

  Curse Bob Now. Why? BECAUSE I SAID SO!!!!!!!! 

  Only a 15-year-old man could save Bob. However, one day while he was eating breakfast, he heard a knock on his door.

  “Can Sir. Epic Man come in? Yes he can!”

  So, a 15-year-old man marched into his house

  “Yo! You must be Bob! I’ll rescue you!”

  So, Sir. Epic Man dragged Bob out the front door.

  Bob was free! He tried to celebrate, but he hadn’t stood up in so long that he crashed to the ground. Then, he felt a rock clonk on his head. The last thing he saw before he passed out was Sir. Epic Man’s smirk.

  Bob awoke in a strange factory. He saw thousands of people chained to a brick wall. Suddenly, he realized he was chained!!!

The summer sun!

By: Sage Wang

I LOVE summer. The camps, no school, vacation… But most of all, I love being able to spend time with my family. We would play cards, watch movies sometimes, and go on family hikes and vacations too!

When I played cards with my brother, it could get funny. For example, once I was five measly points from winning! “It’s not fair!” I would complain, but my brother would just laugh,

“I still won!” Then I would chuckle along with him. Usually after that I would challenge him to a rematch and exclaim, “I’ll win this time!”

And when our family hikes, my mother would find two long smooth sticks, and my brother and I would use them to walk as if we were real nature hikers! SNAP! My mother would then shoot a picture.

“Can I see, can I see?” we would jump up and shout wanting to see our picture. After that, my mom would show us our picture.

Vacation…. Oh, this is one of my favorites! My family and I would explore new places randomly. One summer, we went to China to see my grandpa and grandma. They were so happy to see us, and had bought us each a new pair of slippers!

My slippers were pink and fuzzy, and my brother’s were blue, but fuzzy too! Oooh, so comfortable shoes! In China, there was a carnival too, and we rode on a bumpy ride that shook and shook! I was having so much fun I didn’t want to leave!

I love spending time with my family during the summer!

Santa

By: Sage Wang

Santa stole my gifts, (clap six times) Santa stole my gifts.

Santa stole my gifts, and he was all so swift.

Santa stole my gifts, (clap six times) Santa stole my gifts.

Santa stole my gifts, and he was all so swift.

So all I did was throw a ball, right at his face and all,

Then I threw one at his boots, so I could get all his loot.

Then I saw an elf, and he was standing all by himself.

Then Santa let out a ho ho ho,

and said that they both had to go.

Then as I watched them wave goodbye,

I knew next time I could have some pie!

Water, you are the reason we exist.

ID camp's "icon"

By: Rich Wang

  The best summer camp I ever went to was at a place called ID camp. There, I programmed a game. However, the best part wasn’t the programming, it was… THE VIDEO GAMES AND THE FOOD!

  My group and I got to play video games one hour each day, and on the last day of camp, we had the entire day to play video games besides recess and lunch! Oh, how I love playing Minecraft and Armegetron!

  Do you want to know about our lunch? Well, we went to a nearby café, and we got to eat https://urbandesign4health.com/72y75l7 ANYTHING in the entire café, as many times as we wanted! Also, there was a TV we could watch while we ate.

  It was one of the best summer camps I attended last year, and I’ve been waiting a year for “ID camp time” to come around again. Well, now that summer’s finally come, adios amigos! I’m off to ID camp!

The volcano

By: Sage Wang

“I’m leaving.” I said, putting on shoes. “And I won’t be back!”

“Wait!” my brother Rich shouted. “You can’t leave without me!” He put on his tennis shoes, and jumped out the door with me.

“Okay, fine.” I sighed. ”I guess you can come too.” So we ran past a few mountains, and my brother and I teleported to Mount Everest!

“My latest invention, the teleporter!” Rich sang out. “That’s how we teleported!” Rich then explained. I was curious about it and started pushing random buttons. “NO!” Rich yelled with fear. “DON’T-“ It was too late. We teleported to a volcano. “-PRESS THAT BUTTON.” Rich moaned, finishing his sentence. Lava poured down the volcano’s sides.

“THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!” we screamed simultaneously. “THE VOLCANO IS ERUPTING!”

“You were the one who brought the teleporter!” I complained.

“You started our journey!” Rich groaned.

“You- LAVA IS POURING DOWN ON US!” I screamed. “RUN!!!” We ran for our lives as fast as lightning.

“I think my clothes are on fire!” my brother shrieked.

“That’s your orange shirt you idiot!” I screamed back while running.

“I am not an idiot!” he shouted back.

“WHO CARES- RUN!!!” I yelled. We then found the teleporter and teleported back home.

“What an adventure!” Rich grinned.

“Yeah!” I agreed. I had to agree with him this time- it was truly an adventure all right!

Writing

By: Sage Wang

I just love writing, it comes to me so easy,

I just love it, it’s fun and it doesn’t make me queasy!

Writing is amazing, that whole world of words,

Writing has great power, and it is not just for nerds!

I write when I have the time and write during school,

I write during my daycare, and it feels so cool!!

From poetry to narratives to articles and words,

Writing is everywhere, and it helps everyone learn!

Who wouldn’t love writing, it is my favorite thing,

It might even be better than having some wings!

THE NUMBER 8 IS.... AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

By: Rich Wang

I just love the number eight.

I mean it just looks cool.

I just love the number eight.

Not a ghost number, or cruel.

I just love looking at those two O’s.

They’re just like a pair of eyes.

I just love looking at those two O’s.

8 never says “Good bye!”

You can skate a figure eight.

It looks amazing, on the ice.

Why don’t you try to make an eight?

Just out of your ready-to-eat rice?

I just bet that you can see,

The endless possibilities.

For when you turn the number 8 sideways

You get the sign infinity.

My pencil/sword. P.S. My sword is longer but can't fit the dimensions

By: Rich Wang

  Goal!!!!

  “This is getting ridiculous, “ I thought. “ The Curious Cannonballs are winning 60-0. This is a new record for me, not stopping any goals! It’s half time so at least I get a break from trying to stop the cannonball’s kicks.

  “All right team! We can still win this!” the coach said. “We still have 30 more minutes to score so all we have to do is…” The coach droned on and on and on about plans that wouldn’t work.

  “Half time is over! “ the referee declared. I went back to my position as goalie when the referee declared: “Start!”

  “Hee hee hee! Minions, you can go now!” one of the players on the other team said.

  “What was that? Did I hear him right?” I thought. Suddenly, all of the players on the other team disappeared. That is, all but the one who shouted out the comment about minions.

  “My name is Bobby Joe!” the last guy on the other team said. “Now die!” Suddenly, Bobby Joe turned into a 20 feet robot, complete with missiles and everything!

  “Ahh!!” nearly everyone watching and playing the soccer game yelled as Bobby Joe launched about 100,000 missiles everywhere. Somehow, no one was hurt. Everyone ran, that is, everyone except me. I was frozen with fear!

  “You’ll be the first to die!” Bobby Joe said as he picked up the soccer ball. “Die sweetly please! Ha-ha! I’m so funny!” Bobby Joe hurled the soccer ball at me. It turned into a cannonball and zinged towards me.

  I took out my lucky pencil (don’t laugh) and desperately screamed: “Someone, anybody! Help me!” I squeezed my lucky pencil tightly…and it turned into a double bladed green sword.

  “What!” Bobby Joe and I said at the same time. The cannonball bounced off my sword and zinged towards Bobby Joe.

  “There will be a next time!” Bobby snarled at me. Then, just as he was about to be hit by the cannonball, he teleported away, probably to a hideout or something. Um, time to go home, “I thought as my sword turned back into a pencil. “Maybe I can find out if what just happened was magic, science or a dream…”

The girl in the garden

By: Sage Wang

​

As I walked in the morning sunrise, joy filled my heart. I finally had the chance to find happiness. “But where could I find it?” I thought.

“Maybe in the garden.” I whispered to myself. Then I remembered my dad’s voice.

“Happiness is in the things you love.” I found a bright, orange butterfly, sitting on a light, green leaf. I knew within my heart that this butterfly held happiness in it. I carefully reached forward for the butterfly. It seemed to jump onto my hands, knowing my bright, friendly personality. And my body filled with happiness that I could feel running through me. I held up my hands, and the butterfly flew off, seeming to wave good-bye as it flew away.

Then I remembered my mother’s voice. “Happiness is found when you do acts of kindness to help others.” So I rushed home and got the rake, then raked leaves all over my neighborhood. That afternoon, everyone thanked me once they found that I had raked all the leaves for them without being asked.

Then I found my own heart telling me, “Happiness is found when you have earned compliments and thanks.” And happiness tingles all over my body each and every day now, and it never leaves.
