Vegatopalis: The Battle of the Beans
by
Lindsey

Chapter 1

One day in Vegatopalis there was a storm and every veggie had to be locked up in their houses  it was that bad.  Then surprisingly gaurds from the other kingdom came marching up and down that road saying, "hep two three four."  "Whats happening," said a baby carrot?  "I have no Idea", said Daddy carrot, "but I think we're about to find out".  And they were, because the general stepped onto a stool and said, "People of Vegatopalis we beankeas have come to take over". 

"Why, what have we done?" asked a tomato.  "You steal all of our food and supplies."  Now that the general had spoken the tomato was very red with embarassment.  "Never fear," called someone from above."  It was Captain Celery.  "If you want to fight lets fight!"  "The battle of the beans is on."

"Oh so it's on"? Said the general.  "Well well well."  "Oh yah," spat captain celery.  "Well blah to that."  "Blah". Said the general back at him.  "You'll be very very very sorry for this, captain celery", screamed the general.  "Oh pa leaeeeese," said captain celery, "call me crunchy."

"Now all of you", said the general to his knights, "I want all of you to help win this war even if we have to cheat to do that."  "Yes sir" can the echo of the beans throughout the kingdom.  "Excelent," said the general.  With a grin," get the butter ready."

A Creation
by
Tad

a sand car with guns, some are bad and some are good, it smells like toxic egsaust, it sounds like a high pich roaring terex, it eats any thing in is path, it can drive and can change with feet and wing if it wants to fly, when it dies it produces a baby and in 1 year will be in full growth, the gun shot laser beams that have poisonous chemicals that if touched it can kill fast, it is indestructible, it can smell any thing even some thing toxic it has good eye site in day and is invisible in day and night, it is steal it can burn small as a bug or be as as a normal sand car.
