a new world part 1 of chapter 1 (read introduction first)

Chapter 1



For once the whole world went quiet as each country’s leader explained about the dilemma over the T.V.’s, radios, intercomes, cell phones, and regular phones. After about five minutes of silence people started to cry and scream.

Little babies started to weep and people jumped off buildings. People ran to the post office to check their mail boxes hoping to be some of the lucky ones. Many people left the post office disappointed. Only a few people left the post oiffice with a pit in their stomach sorry to tell their family the news that they had been chosen to live in the new world, Kroyo.

Timmy was one of the people that had recieved a letter that he would be living in the new world. He was an average ten year old boy with red hair and huge brown spectacles. He held the letter close up to his glasses. It stated
January 5, 2024



Dear United States Citizen,

Timmy walked through his front door and came into a house of utter silence. He could hear his mother cooking mush room soup. His father was in the den typing a paper for his work.


Setting down his back pack he walked into the kitchen. His mother ran up to him. You could see the resemblace between Timmy and his mother. His mother’s fiery red har gleamed under the light. “Did you hear the news, honey?”

Timmy nodded. “Yes my teacher told us, “he whispered picking at his hang nail. He pulled the letter out of his pocket and handed it to his mother. His mother looked at him with a puzzled glance. “I checked the mail today and got this.” Brenca, Timmy’s mom, pulled out her green glasses and read the short important letter. Tears slid down her cheeks as she read the letter.

When Brenda finished reading the letters, she scooped Timmy up in her arms. “Mother do I have to go?” Timmy whined.

Brenda wiped away Timmy’s tears along with her own tears which were running in a long river down her face. “Yes dear, of course you do. I am very saddened by the fact of what this world’s come too, but I want you to stay safe. I am very thankful of this letter and I love you very much. No matter how far we are apart I will always love you.” She set him down and stuffed the letter back in the enevlope. There was silence for a long time. Timmy could hear the buzzing from the fridge. He looked around at the quaint little kitchen. The rose wall paper clung to the walls like sap to a tree. The cute little table sat in the middle of the room with three spots set for dinner. Finally Brenda anwered, “Go get your father for dinner.”

Timmy ran down the hall and into the den. His father looked at him from behind his giant black biofcals. “Hello son. How are you?” He looked glum and you could see the worry lines forming underneatth his eyes.

“Dinner father,” Timmy anwerered motioning his hand toward the kitchen.

“Oh thanks son.” Timmy’s father was a scientist for the Dover University. Timmy’s father, Henry, was also writing a book about the endangered leemur called the serma.


When the whole family Timmy, Brenda, and Henry sat down for dinner. Brenda had placed the letter on Henry’s plate. Henry, seeing the symbol of the United States on the envelope, snatched up the letter and began to read it. His eyes seemed to bulge out of his head. He dropped the letter and sat down.

Henry, then as an after thought, pushed back his chair and stood up. He walked over to Timmy and put a hand on his son’s shoulder. “Son I want you to go. I am very happy for you. I love you very much.”

Henry walked back to his chair and sat down. Pulling the pot of soup over to his own bowl, he divied a large portion of the mushroom soup into his bowl. The smell was delicious and Timmy quickly pulled the pot over to him. The dinner happened in silence along with the rest of the world.

A new world

Introduction



“Hello ladies and gentlemen of America. This is president Nails speaking. i have an important, urgent announcement concerning your health and safety. Due to our continuous pollution of the earth a terrible event has taken place. The enormous amount of waste in our earth has caused an environmental break down in our world. The rain forests have been destroyed and only an estimated 1% of the total trees we used to have have been destroyed. Carbon dioxide is beginning to the fill the earth. Our earth’s magnetic shield is also broken. This was caused by the constant green house gases released into the air. We are in danger of any meteorites or space objects coming into earth’s path. It is no longer possible for human beings to remain on this earth. The human race will never survive if we don’t do something drastic now! Luckily we have a solution. The leaders of the world have been talking for the last ten years. We have found a planet called Kroyo. We’ve been building a secret world there for the last seven years. No one has known about it because we’ve kept it top secret from the rest of the world.


Now this pains me very much to say this, but I guess I will proceed. Never as President of the United States have I ever imagined I would have to say or do this. All the world leaders and me as well have decided in order to keep our new world fresh and less polluted only five hundred people from each country will join us in a space shuttle heading towards Kroyo. Please take this in mind and don’t think it was easy for us to decide this. You will receive a letter in the mail if you are one of the chosen ones. It will include a variety of people: kids, adults, elderly, poor, famous, rich, smart, average, and many other factors. Animals, plants, and other natural things will also be brought too. Thank you for your patience and I’m very sorry to bring you this message.”

Road trip part 3

Later in day

Dear Diary,
The party was a bust! My sister ordered crab cakes instead of salmon mushroom cakes from the caterer, because I'm allergic to mushrooms. When I brought one of those delicious mouth watering cake to my mouth I discovered that the caterer has forgotten to change to crab cakes and had made salmon mushroom cakes!

I immediately broke out in hives and started swelling up so much the buttons on the back of my dress started to burst. My mother and father got so worried they called the hospital. I didn't even get any cake, though when I left my sister promised she would save some for me.

I'm at the hospital right now. The doctor told me I will be fine to go home tomorrow. "Just take it easy, " he said.

Well right more tomorrow.

Road trip part 2

That was when my luck turned. Tony caught up with me. "Hey," he said with a flick of his brown shaggy hair.

"Hey," I said trying to sound cool because inside I was boiling over with happiness. "So, how do you know my sister or her new husband?" I asked flattening the huge bow on my hips.

"I'm the grooms brother." I felt so stupid. Richard Rodginger. Tony Rodginger. Why didn't I put the two together.

"Sarah Kate come on your sister's waiting to cut the cake." Why did mothers have to interrupt times like this?

" Coming mama," I called. "Wanna come?" I asked Tony as I ran up the aisle and out the door of the church.

Anyways I'm at th party right now. I'll write more later.
