I was in the mud on a cold, cold day. I wondered if I should even go out. I wandered around and then I bumped into my friend Henry. "Watch it Patrick," Henry said. "Sorry," I yelled. "Hey, you should be more quiet," He whispered. "Why?" I said. He didn't seem to respond back. I was so curious that I wanted to go find out "Don't go over there," Said Henry. "Why? Is there something over there?" I asked. "Just don't go and just trust me okay," He said. "But I would like to know why I can't?" "Look, if you can't trust me then don't bother to speak to me anymore," He yelled. "But...but.........but," I mumbled. "Look I told you not to talk to me anymore. You know what, if you can't trust me then go find out yourself," He whispered with anger. "SURE," I yelled. "That is such a good idea," I said. "NO, I was just kidding," Henry yelled as he turned around. But by then I was already gone and walking to find out what was there.
He wasn't my best friend in the world so he didn't mind if I died. He was kind of like an enemy. When I got there he heard a loud noise. Then I heard another noise. Then, another one. Later, after 30 seconds I heard non-stop loud noises. I ran across the mud trying to find out what is was. I thought it could have been a bird or an alligator or crab. I was wrong. Totally wrong. I ran and saw humans. I heard someone saying that this was grade 6. Grade 6A to be exact. I was scared of them so I ran in front of them. Kids started to run on the mud that I was in and that was right were I was. I turned my head around and looked at the kid to make sure that he was okay and to see if he saw me. When I turned back around some kids came jumping right in front of my face. "That was a close one," I yelled. "Aha, they must be mangrove planting," I whispered. I tried to run around to make sure that they wouldn't step on me. "Look," said a girl that was called Cienna. "I think that, that was a mud skipper." "You are right, Cienna. That is a mud skipper," said Mrs. Narsiman. Cienna ran to me to pick me up. I ran in circles and confused her. She slipped in the mud and got so muddy. She picked me up and dropped me and picked me up again. I was so dizzy that I couldn't focus on what she was trying to do to me. She took me to her teacher and everyone was starring at me. I was so scared. I started to call for help but it was no use, no one could hear me this far away. I started to cry in my mind. One kid dropped me and I tried to run away but I couldn't because they stepped on me. I was so scared I cried in my mind.
"Ahhh," I yelled. I ran around and Cienna fell in the mud again. "Oh no," She yelled. Henry was there with everyone, all of the mud skippers that he knew and he helped me scare the 6 graders away. "That's what you get you guys. HA,"I yelled. "Thanks a lot Henry. I didn't know that you would help me," I said. "No problem," Henry said. We walked back to our home in the mud. He kept telling me that he was really worried about me. Then, he started to tell me that he was sorry that he didn't tell me what was there and that he was sorry he didn't chase me when I left. "They tried to kill me, but then, you saved me! How could I ever repay you," I said. " Well you could be my best friend. I don't have a lot of friends so....?" "SURE. Why not?" I yelled. We were best friends because of today.
