Space Race

Once there was a planet called Skul because there were a lot of skeleton's skulls there.  The planet Skul was having a race to get to Neptune first.  Neptune was 3,000,086 yards away. There were 2 teams and 2 drivers in the race.  One team was Team Leaf because that racer's favorite thing was a prized leaf about the size of him.  The second team was Team Sky.  The team was named Sky because the driver loved to stare up at the sky and look at the clouds and find objects.  His dream was to be there one day. The drivers were really nice people.  There are people on the planet Skul because it is a planet just like Earth, only the planet loved to have nature.  They didn't use cars, they used bikes and other vehicles that don't make pollution.


One red-haired driver drove a kayak, the other was a veterinarian who drove a unicycle.  The red-haired driver who drove a blue kayak drove for Team Sky and the veterinarian who drove a green unicycle drove for Team Leaf.  When the drivers were about to take off, they each got a dog that was trained to do what the driver can't do.  The dog for Team Leaf was a Husky.  The dog for Team Sky was a Chinese Crested.  The Husky's name was K.O., the Chinese Crested's name was Thor.  As the kayak and the unicycle took off, their cool rocket boosters shot out soil for the ground which give the unicycle and kayak extra speed.


While they were in space, they got hungry.  The veterinarian shared Jell-O with his Husky K.O..  The red-haired guy shared a really soft part of Laffy Taffy with his Chinese Crested, Thor.  The dogs and the racers got to their computers (with solar sun powered energy) started steering.  They had to steer through the first objects that were in the way, which were a couple of planets and a whole lot of mountains to dodge.  When they got to 2 million yards, they were in the middle of a meteor shower which was 1,000,086 yards away from Neptune.  It was very unsafe because the vehicles did not have roofs.  When the veterinarian took the lead by 86 yards, with a million yards to go, the red-haired buy was in a lot of trouble in the middle of the meteor shower.


When the Chinese Crested was trying to help, he would only bark at the meteors and when they got really close, he would bat them away, which would save the blue kayak from being destroyed.  When they caught up with where the Leaf team used to be, the Leaf team had only gone one yard because they were too busy laughing at the Sky team because they were stuck in the meteor shower.  So when the Sky Team caught up and was right next to the Leaf team, they only had 100 more yards to go because the Leaf team had gotten right back into it when they saw they Sky Team had gotten out of the meteor shower.  The mountains were in sight from there and there were mountains everywhere; it was hard to even look.  When they were face to face with the hundred mountains a race assistant guy gave them a map through the mountains, it didn't really help because it only showed the mountains and it didn't show a path.  It turned out that each team found the same pattern to go left-right-left through all the same mountains.


As they went through the mountains, they followed the pattern and only had 59 yards to go.  Soon after, there were only 50 yards to go.  then all of a sudden the space assistant guy came back and gave them a map of the rest of the race.  It showed all clear space except for one thing.  The space aliens.  There was a legend that said that there were only 2 space aliens, but they were humongous.  Their foot was the size of a house and their body was the size of the whole Pacific Ocean.  The Leaf Team got safely through the first space alien.  The Sky Team was having trouble with the first space alien.  Then Thor scared away the space alien.  Team Leaf was having trouble with the second space alien, but while Team leaf was holding off the space alien, the Sky Team went right through the legs.  Team Leaf shortly got out of the mess with the second space alien and it was clear space from there.  The teams were even out with a tie in the middle of space with 10 yards to go.  They could see Neptune from there.  Team Leaf took the lead and then Team Sky got it back.  And then Team Leaf got it and then Team Sky got it.  And it was like that for a couple of minutes until Team Leaf took the lead with only 3 more yards to go.  But Team Sky was still believing that they could win.


Team Sky was believing so much that they broke out in tears from believing and all of a sudden Thor contacted with K.O. and it seemed like they were getting into a fight with one yard apart; which was distracting K.O. and the veterinarian who was driving the unicycle.  And the red-haired guy had enough time to put on the rocket boosts again.  And then there was only one yard to go.  Both teams were crying with happiness thinking that they would get there first.  And all of a sudden with a third of a yard to go, Thor jumped out of the kayak and held onto the bottom of the kayak and did a flip over to the unicycle to put more weight on the unicycle and more weight on the kayak.  And the kayak, with one foot left to go crashed onto Neptune with the unicycle one minute behind.


(And the official said that even though Thor put more weight on the unicycle, it was the smarter thing to do, so the kayak won fairly; he said that because Thor risked his life to win the race so Thor gets a whole lot of credit for risking his life and making that race seem like it was everything to Team Sky.)


Below are pictures of my dog Thor.  He's a Chinese Crested like in the story Space Race.
