The Portal

By: Emery

 

Chapter one Discovering

 

One day a girl named Amira, with nice golden blond hair and blue eyes and a green shirt, and Laura, with silky brown smooth hair with green eyes and a blue shirt, were at the park swinging. Then they went to the jungle gym.  Laura pulled a lever by mistake and they noticed tunnel, so they went down the tunnel and Amira always had a flashlight with her. When they reached the end of the tunnel they saw two round things and two levers. They walked over there and Amira and Laura pulled the silver and gold levers. It was a …PORTAL!?! They freaked out and were being sucked into different portals. Amira was sucked into the future, and Laura was sucked into the past.

 

Chapter 2 Amira’s Future Time

 

Amira was worried when she turned around she was surprised to see all the flying cars and the weird shaped buildings. Amira was wondering about Laura. But then she saw something in the distance it looked like a person so she walked up to it. It looked like her future self. She asked if it was her future self. She said yes.

Amira was talking to her future self for a while, and she could not stop talking for how awesome it was to be talking to herself.  Amira wanted to leave but she could not find the portal.

 

Amira saw the end of the ocean and started walking towards it. Amira started to float as the water got  deeper. She saw her best friend Laura was walking toward a little hut then stopped walking and turned and saw Amira. She came running toward her with joy but they could not touch. It was not Laura, it was… V-Tex? He had a black mask with a red X across it. He was standing at the end of the past and future. Amira realized seeing him in the intersection would mean something for her and her friend. Amira was backing up and started running. She saw the portal and Amira ran through it. She wanted to save Laura, but it might be too risky. Amira said, “Thank heavens I’m back home.” She went through the tunnel and back to the jungle gym.

 

Chapter three Laura’s Past

 

Laura was worried and scared but she saw a little hut. She walked in and there was just a bed, she laid on the black and blue bed and fell asleep.After two hours of sleep she was bored so she walked out of the hut and. It looked like there was something round in the distance walking toward it. It was the portal so she walked through it, and V-Tex crept up to the portal with a daring laugh and shut it off. Laura was in middle of space able to breathe with a little water and very little food. Amira walked down to the portal room and turned the portal back on.The portal turned back on, so Laura walked through the portal, and back in the portal room seeing Amira with happiness.

 

Chapter four Together

 

When they were back together in the portal room. They were as happy as can be. But they wanted to go in the past and the future together so they did. When they were in the future Laura was screaming for how cool it was. Amira said, “I know it’s really cool because I got to see my future self.”

Laura said, “You have got to be kidding me you should have been sucked in the past cause I wanted to see my future self,” Amira laughed.

Laura yelled, “STOP!”

Amira said, “Fine.” They were walking by the side of the bay and they were talking. Then they went to swim in the sparkling blue shiny water.

When they were done swimming they were completely wet so they went to go dry off. They walked back through the portal and would not stop talking to each other. Amira said, “That was such a great time.”

Laura said, “I know right. We should do it some other time.” But they were not alone.

 

Chapter five Not Alone

 

Amira and Laura were not alone they were being watched. It was V-Tex he was walking quietly behind Amira.Then he snatched her and went through a portal to the underworld that they did not know about. Laura said, “Amira where are you? You better not be playing around with me.”

Then she saw the underworld portal. Laura said, “OH NO!!!” She ran through the portal and saw Amira tied up she was crying. Amira cried, “ Please help me!”

Laura ran to go get a knife to cut the rope. She ran back through the portal. She ran to go get her knife. When she was back at her house her mom asked where she had been. Laura said, “Mom I need to go. I promise I will be back.

She ran back into the tunnel and back in the portal room. Back through the portal and ran to Amira, and Laura cut the rope and Amira was free.But… V-Tex saw them trying to escape so he ran after them but they ran. But Amira and Laura were too quick and then they escaped. Amira said, “Thank you so much.”

Laura said, “ No problem.” Then they hugged.

At 12:00 A.M V-Tex was in the portal room walking through the tunnel and

to the playground. V-Tex said, “Finally I’m back on earth!” He did his daring laugh,and he saw Laura and Amira. He ran through the window and grabbed them. He laughed and Amira and Laura were screaming for Laura’s Mom. Her mom woke up she screamed and called the police.

The police saw V-Tex with Amira and Laura. Amira and Laura both yelled, “HELP US!!!”

The police told him to surrender, but he ran through the tunnel, so the police ran through the tunnel too, but they saw the portals. They were confused so they walked through the future portal but Amira, Laura, and V-Tex was in the past portal. The police saw V-Tex with Amira and Laura in the past when they were by the ocean so they ran through the portal,but V-Tex shut it off, so the police were umm… stuck in space so they were gone. Amira forgot she had a knife with her so she got out the knife and cut his hand V-Tex screamed, “AHHHHHHHH!!” He breathed very heavy, and Amira and Laura escaped so they ran through the portal but the wrong one.

Amira screamed, “OMG SO MUCH CANDY

I THINK I’M GOING TO DIE!” Laura said, “O-O OMG ME TOO!” All they saw was lollipops, Hershey bars

Crunch, and a lot more. So they walked around and then they saw… a cow. It was not just any cow it was a candy cow. It was made with licorice lollipops and Twix, but they did not know that that cow was a camera being controlled by V-Tex. They wanted to eat it but… they didn’t want to hurt a cow, so they walked away and V-Tex shapeshifted into his normal form. Amira and Laura walked through the portal and shut it off. But V-Tex was walking through the portal and now he was stuck in space forever without no food or water, and the candy land portal vanished.s

So they went to her house and saw Amira’s mom with news. Amira’s mom said, “ Sweetie I got a new job in New York.”

Amira sadly said, “ Mom I don’t want to move because moving means new schools and new friends.” Amira was so sad and started to cry and hugged Laura.

Amira’s mom said, “ I know but this will help us because we will make more money. ”

Amira yelled, “ I DO NOT WANT TO MOVE!” She ran up to her room opened the door and then slammed it. Amira’s mom told Laura that she could leave, but Laura wanted to stay and talk to her so she did.

Laura said, “ I’m sorry it had to be like this.” Amira didn’t say anything. Laura said, “ why don’t you wanna talk?”

Amira mumbled, “ Because I don’t want to talk cause this is all my fault. Laura asked why? But Amira didn’t talk.
