School of the Dead 3

After the incident about the unknown person, Mr. Batalie informed everyone in the class that someone wrote something underneath Tony’s picture and they did, to confess. At the start Tony thought it was definitely Jessica, but after a while it couldn’t have been her. After class ended a girl stood in front of Tony and it wasn’t Jessica, it was Lilly. She told Tony about her 13th birthday party and wanted to invite Tony so he received a card with all the information needed, like the time and date of the party.

Later on in the day Tony finally realized something, or at least he thought. The person who wrote anonymous person who wrote under his picture must have been her! Then he thought about it for a little while and realized he hadn’t talked to her until that day and the message was written a week ago. That mean’t it was someone Tony didn’t, so he kept a close eye for anyone that looked suspicious. Finally he got his answer before leaving school. Tony forgot his book pack so he headed toward Mr. Batalie’s room and saw the boy again. The boy was putting something in his book pack. 

Suddenly the boy disappeared leaving Tony in astonishment. Right after he got his book pack and was leaving class Mr. Batalie came in and asked Tony if anything was wrong. The two of them talked for a little while, but in the end Tony left without saying a thing about the mysterious boy. Before Tony left the class he looked at Mr. Batalie and saw fear in the man’s eyes. Something very wrong was occurring. While heading out the door Jessica asked him if he was still thinking about joining their club, and it was true. What good would being in the newspaper club do, besides he felt bad that Jessica’s club didn’t have a lot of people, only four……

When Tony got home he headed directly for his slack line and kept thinking about the boy. Then Tony remembered something again. Jessica and Tony had talked in private about the boy that Tony kept on saying and Jessica agreed to help him find the boy and learn more about it (ghost). The next day during social studies class at school Mr. Boker talked about ghosts and what many people believed was true. He said that some people people believe that when a person dies their spirit lives on as ghosts and only have 7 years to find another soul, or else they vanish into the underworld. 

Talk about memory, Tony was on a roll! He remembered how his Uncle Charlie said that the number 7 was the most important number was the universe! After class ended Mr. Boker told Tony to meet with him. Thats why eh two of them talked about a term paper was needed in order for Tony to pass the term. He was already a bit late since he came after the term, but still needed to pick a topic and write about it. Mr. Boker offered Tony the chance to write about the “Penda school” and its founders. It would help him get to learn about the school and keep his grade. Unfortunately Tony did not realize that he would discover something very unfortunate.

School of the Dead 2

Before Tony went into the school for his first day his mom told him that they were lucky he even got into the school. Apparently a student left the seventh grade (Coincidence?) and that spot was given to Tony.  At the entrance of the school Tony saw a tall woman in the center. She looked like she was waiting for him so he met her. Apparently she was the dean of the school or principle. The name was Ms. Foxton. After introducing themselves the two of them headed to Ms. Foxton’s office where they talked about the important school rules and sports. Such as how Tony needed to select a sport later on the year and that the school had many clubs. 

Before Tony left the office Ms. Foxton told him if he ever needed anything her door was always open. In addition to that she actually showed Tony  his classroom and new homeroom teacher. The teacher was called Mr. Batalie and the Social Studies teacher was called Mr. Boker. Talk about male representation. 

After Ms. Foxton left Tony was told to sit in a desk between a boy and a girl named Jessica. As he was walking to his new seat Tony saw the same boy that was in the tower the day before sitting in it. However he disappeared and Tony continued on.

During recess Tony sat with some kids on a table inside the cafeteria (in the basement). They talked about how they were the cool kids and Jessica was one of the losers. However one of them did talk about how pretty she was. Peter (one of the kids at the table) said if Jessica wasn’t the weirdest kid in the school she would have been the most popular. Along with her friends. Then right after recess ended Jessica walked up to Tony and asked about what they said. He told her everything and she replied by saying in a proper manner, “you should pick our club, its called the “Weird History Club”.

Unfortunately for her Tony decided to listen to Peter’s group because he didn’t wanted a “loser” reputation at the “Penda School”. After school before he headed home he met up with the most popular kid in school, Ryan Walker. He talked about how he was the leader of the newspaper club and would really appreciate Tony’s help. That got Tony thinking he should join their club, but then thought about Jessica’s club, “The Weird History Club”. He wondered,  “What do they even do at that club?”.

When Tony got home he walked the slackline because usually that was what cheered him up. However he wasn’t focused because of the boy. He remembered how the boy was sitting in his chair before he got to it. He also definitely wasn’t part of the class because Mr. Batalie showed Tony the class wall. Apparently under each picture on the wall someone could sign and saw a compliment about that person. However they had to put their name next to the statement. Three people signed Tony’s picture. This is exactly what they wrote, “Your very interesting, Jessica” was the first one and the second said “I’m glad your in our class, Lilly”. The weird thing was that the third comment said, “ I need to talk to you.” and didn’t have any name. Something mysterious was happening at “Penda School”.

School of the Dead

For today’s post I’ve decided not to continue the summary about “Galactic Hot Dogs”, but only because yesterday I read a whole new book. The book was called “School of the Dead”. I’m starting to like all these horror and scary books. Unfortunately the book didn’t have pictures, but I didn’t mind because the story was so interesting. Today I’ll just give a tiny summary and then start going into detail about everything. So lets start with a tiny summary about the whole story. Before I start I just want to say that I’ll probably be talking about this book for the next 3 posts so that will give you time to catch up if you missed anything.

The “School of the Dead”, by “AVI” (can’t fid the real name), is about a boy named Tony who doesn’t believe in ghosts. However before his uncle died the guy suggested Tony go to a school called “Penda” that is in San Francisco. While there Tony gets suspicious about many things and that’ll get him into trouble. Along the way he meets new friends, however is this school normal or a plan to trap Tony all together (the reason I say “together” is because he makes more than just one enemy and the students are just as bad). Just wait to find out!

Now I’ll begin the whole story.

One day a boy named Tony has his Uncle Charlie invited to his house. Reason being, the man is growing old and needed to spend more time with people then by himself. Uncle Charlie seemed like a really nice person and fun when he joined the family. However he always talked about ghosts and that got Tony a bit curious. Unfortunately Tony wasn’t able to find anything out because Uncle Charlie died a few days later. The last thing Uncle Charlie told Tony was that he wishes Tony and him could go to the other side forever. 

Then Tony’s mother remembered something. Uncle Charlie wanted Tony to go to a school in San Francisco called “Penda” for some reason. The reasons as to why Tony’s mom, dad, and even himself went there was because Tony had no more friends because of Uncle Charlie (everyone was spooked by him) ,and his parents wanted more challenging work. Thats why when his parents found jobs they left their house and got an apartment in San Francisco. Tony was going to be the new kid at his school and a part of something much bigger. He was still confused as to why his Uncle Charlie wanted him to go there.

When the three of them finally arrived at San Francisco they headed to their apartment and unpacked. All except for Tony. He was too focused on his slackline. Then Tony remembered something. His Uncle Charlie said the number 7 was supposed to be the most important number in the universe. Suddenly Uncle Charlie appeared right in front of Tony. It was a memory of him. Then he vanished, but Tony had a feeling he’d come back. 

While visiting the school and looking around before his first day Tony saw something inside the school. Since the school used to be a mansion it had many towers and small rooms. In one of the tower windows stood a boy. It was a Sunday too!  Then the boy vanished and a girl took his place. Something weird was going on Tony and to get to the bottom of things. When Tony got home he went on his slackline, but kept on falling because he wasn’t concentrating. The last thing Tony remembered before falling asleep was when Uncle Charlie told him the slack line is like two sides, life and death!

Christmas

For today’s post I’m going to be writing about what I did on Christmas and yesterday. I’ll also talk about the book called “Galactic Hot Dogs” which is really good. I’m going to give my version of the book. Anyways lets get started. I’ve decided to start with the summary first. “Galactic Hot Dogs”, by Max Brallier, is about an Earth boy named “Cosmoe” and his best space friend “Humphree”. Humphrey is a type of alien that has met Cosmoe over time and they developed a friendship for each other. Cosmoe also has a companion in his amor called “Goober” that happens to be symbiotic. That means if it leaves me Goober dies.

Together in space they go on many adventures, for fun purposes mostly. The two of them love playing video games, particularly “ Super Moon Ninja Death Jab”. It sounds like a move instead of a game. However their new adventure isn’t as easy as their previous adventures. The princess of space has also joined them and together they will unveil a whole new terror upon Space. While running a good hot dog business in a food truck/spaceship called “Neon Weiner”. If you want to know how and why Cosmoe even got to space the first place, that rhymes, you’ll have to read the book because its a really long story.

 In the book the two of them participate in a food competition that whoever’s dish is the best, gets a lot of money. Honestly, Cosmoe and Humphree’s “Dish” is actually a giant hot dog so they probably wouldn’t have won, but anyway this the part that starts the whole adventure.  Someone steals their hot dog and then the two of them chase after it. Then when they snatch it back they realize the mysterious person was actually the princess of evil. Now its your turn to read, and by the way the next post I’ll continue. 

Now lets talk about my Christmas!

For Christmas I really enjoyed the morning of it. When I say that I mean just relaxing and opening presents. That lasted 5 minutes by the way. In the morning I woke up my little sister and she told me that my dad went outside to jog. Turns out he was actually with my mom downstairs in the basement and I have  a theory. You see my mom was wrapping gifts for my family so she decided to do it in the basement where no one goes. Except me, but I was too busy watching a movie. Then I guess she just fell asleep while wrapping. Fortunately she was already finished.

For breakfast we had eggs and bread with a bit of milk and some pancakes. It was one big breakfast, but I didn’t eat much because I wanted to open my presents. Too bad I already knew all the presents my mom got for me because I already wore two of them and she bought gloves from Sears yesterday with me. In addition to that I saw her today putting some pajamas in a bag. So while opening presents my mom’s gifts were totally ruined. She did do one thing right though. My mother found the Jordan’s that my dad hid from me because he said  I wasn’t responsible enough. Four months later I think I am. However I don’t know what my dad gave me. It was actually another sweater he bought from his, because last time I had one the laces fell off. Well tat is pretty much my Christmas. See you later.

Last Kids On Earth 3

Hi everyone, Merry Christmas! The reason I didn’t post yesterday was because my dad said I didn’t have to do any homework. However today I finished the book, “The Last Kids on Earth” and thats one of the things I’ll talk about. After finishing the book I’ll talk about what I did on Christmas. Before I start I also want to say that I finished reading “Galactic Hot Dogs”. Remember when I said that “The Last Kids on Earth” was created from the same author as “Galactic Hot Dogs” while now I finished both of them. Good relief. Okay lets get started.

Last time I talked about “The Last Kids on Earth” I stoped when Dirk and Jack headed back to the tree house. Now lets continue from there. When Dirk and Jack headed back to the tree house Quint became friends with Dirk. If you don’t remember, before the mutant zombie apocalypse Dirk was the bully of the school and treated Jack and Quint like trash. Jack has already been Jack’s friend since they arrived at Home Depot. Now it was Quint’s turn to be friends. Then the three of them played Ping Pong.

The next day Quint said the tree house had to be more heavily armed and that meant more space. So he moved all his stuff into the house’s garage that was closest. Which by the way was the family’s house that Jack had lived before the apocalypse. Quint required Dirk to surround the tree house with a moat. That meant digging up holes all around the tree house and then wait for the rain to fill up the moat. After the rain Jack, Quint, and Dirk had fun together and swam. Jai was the worst when they played catch either because Dirk threw the ball weirdly or Jack just had no known talent at all.

Finally it was time for Jack to go rescue his high school crush. You see Jack knew this girl named June back in school and hopes she is still alive. He calls her “A Damsel in Distress”. Turns out she wasn’t because when Jack got to the school with Dirk and Quint she helped them escape from a ball of zombies. Then Jack worked his magic as June decided to come with them back to their tree house. For the rest of the night Jack, Dirk, Quint, and June slept for the rest of night in one of the classrooms.

However they all woke up to he sound of a creature roaring his heart out. Unfortunately there was a ton of zombies outside the school and an even more terrible mutant awaiting them,“Blarg”! He was back and ready to rumble! Then Quint realized something about Blarg. He had poor eyesight. He figured that out when Jack showed him the picture he took when fighting Blarg in the first chapter. They had to go during the night or else Blarg would eat them during the day.

Thats why the four of them headed in the school’s supply room and saw a bunch of gear they could use. So all of them grabbed as many things as they needed and headed outside. They only got 7 feet from the school until the zombies picked up their scent. Now it was day time and Blarg arrived at the school. He looked ready for revenge because Jack stabbed his forehead with a baseball bat. This time Jack really was the hero because he distracted the Blarg by running away from it. That gave the other guys enough time to run.

It was a really good time for Jack to be distracting the Blarg because he grabbed the bottle Quint gave him and threw it directly at the Blarg’s head. It had so much acid inside of it that the Blarg mutated even further! It turned into “Acid Blarg!!!”. Now Jack was really scared he no choice but to run again. Suddenly Jack’s pet grabbed Jack and took him back to the tree house. It was Rover! Jack’s pet and companion. Rover was a friendly monster that looked nothing like a zombie. More a mutant.

By the time they got to the tree house Quint, Dirk, and June were already getting ready to fight Acid Blarg. The catapults were all loaded up and the moat was filled to the brim. Thats when Acid Blarg arrived. The catapult launched a bunch of junk at the Acid Blarg, but only made it angrier. So Quint threw a potion at the Blarg that would make him fall. It combined with the moat for a combo. Then Dirk grabbed a cannon and shot footballs and razor blades at the creature. June reloaded the cannons and shot it again. Everyone was helping and now it was time for Jack. He grabbed his baseball bat and stabbed the Acid Blarg’s head in the same spot he did last time eventually killing the mutant! Hooray! End of story.

Last Kids on Earth 2

Now I’ll continue talking about what I read yesterday. So yesterday I left off on how Jack was able to hear Quint’s voice through the walkie talkie that he fixed. Thats why Jack grabbed his weapon which by the way was a broken baseball bat, and headed off toward’s Quint’s house. He made it almost halfway by walking through people’s backyards. However his luck was about to run out. Since their weren’t anymore backyards Jack saw two choices. A football field or a narrow road. He knew both ways are bad, but chose the football field because it had more space. 

All of a sudden while running through the field a giant mutant zombie slammed onto the ground. Even worse, so did another mutant zombie. Jack Sullivan was cornered by two mutants. They were called “Dozers”. Fortunately for him something shot right through one of the Dozer’s heads. It was a baseball. Then Jack turned to the direction of where it came from and saw a boy. Quint! Jack and Quint ran as fast they could to Quint’s house. When they got there Quint showed Jack his room. It was full of all types of gadgets! 

Then Jack told Quint about the tree house that he made. That gave Quint an amazing idea. He grabbed all of his gear and walked with Jack towards the tree house. By the time they got there Quint had already made a bunch of new inventions and was preparing to put them on the tree house. After that Jack headed out to get some gas for the tree house. For stuff like phones and games, or microwaves and TVs. They didn’t need electricity I guess. Also Quint brought a car from his house that had all types of gadgets around it so they needed fuel to make it useful.

Suddenly he saw another boy. Except he was bulkier and not zombified. It was one of his old school bullies. The name was Dirk Savage, but lets call him Dirk. He helped save Jack from one of the mutant creatures and killed it. Then with Jack’s persuasion Dirk joined Quint and him. He showed the way back to the tree house for Dirk and the both of them got ready to go out again. You see Quint said he need supplies from Home Depot so he could make something for “Beast”. The reason I said “Beast”was because the day before Jack found a monster that resembled a giant dog. However it was friendly and Jack wanted to keep it.

By the time Jack and Dirk got to Home Depot a swarm of zombies were covering the place. However Jack was able to borrow a machine from Quint that could scream and lure the zombies away. When the timer ended the machine started to Scream and the zombies ran toward it. That gave Dirk and Jack just enough time to get inside the store. Inside Dirk found a ping pong table and told Jack. Since Quint’s birthday was coming soon they decided to take it back to the tree house. All of a sudden a giant mutant zombie poked its eyes through a window. I’ll continue it when I write tomorrow.

Last Kids On Earth

For today’s post I’ll be talking about a book I’ve been reading for the past 2 days It is called “The Last Kids on Earth”. Trust me, if you could see the title you’d know why it says that. Anyway the book “The Last Kids on Earth” is written by “Max Brallier” and he is also the author of one of my all time favorites, “Galactic Hot Dogs”. The book is illustrated by “Douglas Holgate”. That sounds professional enough, now does it? Now I’ll begin summarizing the book, and when I say summarizing I mean talking about the book to the littlest detail. 

A kid named “Jack Sullivan” lives in a town that has been taken over by zombies, and not just the classic kind. Their are others much more terrifying. Some as big as a school, others that can fly like eagles. Its basically a mutant zombie apocalypse. Before his zombie life he was an orphan. A foster kid who would travel from family to family until he found one. Unfortunately for him the last family that taken care of him lived here. Then after the zombie apocalypse had started his family had left him to move to the West. There had been rumors that in the West it was safe because soldiers were practically swarming the place. 

Since his foster family left him he just stayed here and now he’s basically stuck, unless he can find a way out and be free. However Jack doesn’t really want to leave. He likes destroying zombies and being  a slayer. Anyway while I was typing this up Jack Sullivan was fighting a mutant zombie. He named it “Blarg” because thats the sound it made whenever it tried to talk. If I was Jack I’d run away, but seeing we don’t have the same brain he chose to fight. Then later on he just ran, but not without a picture. He wanted to picture every moment he could for the fun of it and to show future generations how life was like for him. As Jack ran he headed to where he lives during the apocalypse.

 His own tree house! Fortunately he’s made some major upgrades while surviving in this town. The reason Jack even went outside the tree house in the first place was because he needed to get a really tiny screwdriver from the CVS store. Thats also the place he fought “Blarg”. With the tiny screwdriver Jack fixed the Walkie talkie he was given to from his friend Quint. He doesn’t know wether or not Quint is even alive, but really hopes so. 

Another thing he does to make his time during the zombie apocalypse not boring is making feats or accomplishments. Whenever he’s close to finishing them he just thinks of more. Great idea actually. The amazing part is that when he fixes the walkie talkie he test tries it and hears a voice. It was Quint’s voice. He was still alive! Jack wondered how Quint looked like. Turns out he was still the same as always. Thats all I’ve read for now.
