            After about 5 hours of sleep and 12 hours of waiting, we finally arrived in Australia. I was happy that we were gonna be close to returning to my dad's car. "Follow me." The man took us to this tree house by this huge building. We all climbed in. To be honest with you, I thought that we were about to enter a hellhole. But to be honest, it was like a wonderland in a treehouse. There was a water fountain, a gold toilet in the bathroom, a glorious kitchen, a living room with a 72 inch TV with stereo around it. I felt like I was going to faint. And I think everyone else was thinking the same thing. "Please, help yourselves to anything." Once the man said that everyone spread out! Jill and Josh ran to watch tv and blasted the stereos. April ran into the kitchen to get something to eat. And I really don't know what Amy was doing. She just ran somewhere. And the man ran into a room that looked like his office. I kindly walked in and asked him some questions. "What's your name, sir?" He replied in a scratchy but kind voice. "Mike. Mike Daniels. What's your name kid?" For a second I heard a deep voice for a second but I ignored it. "Pat. Pat Clementine. No sir, I..." Next second, Mike put his hand on my face. "Shhhhhhhh. Come here." He was walking down some stairs. At first, I was confused about how there were stairs except for the ones you get in and out of. Plus, I thought I was about to be raped. I didn't know what to do. But I went with my gut and went with him.

The Cave○

When I was walking down the stairs, I saw pitch black. I didn't see any light. For a second I was going to retreat and take everyone back to America. But before my amazing plan was about to be put into action, the door closed on us! Mike ran to the door. He realized it was locked. "ARE WE TRAPPED HERE?! I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO BE MY LAST DAY! A VOODOO MAN TOLD ME THIS!!! WHY ME?!?!?!" Mike ran to me and stuck something in my mouth (please don't think it's weird). My mouth was watering. I realized, he put some special candy. It helps calm down people who have anxiety, like me. "Now let's calm down and go the other way. I know this tunnel-like the back of my hand. Or my foot... I don't really know but you know what I mean." I was so scared I was going to pee my pants.

So it felt like an hour of walking. With that hour, I kept telling myself. "I'M GONNA DIE! I'M GONNA DIE! I'M GONNA FREAKING DIE!!!" Mike knew I was kind of stressed. So he told me some knock-knock jokes. "Knock knock?" I didn't know what to do at this point. So I joined his stupid game to get death out of my mind. "Who's there?" He replied in a childish voice. "The interrupting cow?" I wasn't really into the joke but I replied anyway. "The interu-" He interrupted me in the middle of nowhere. "MOOOOOOOOOO!!" I didn't get it so I continued. "The interr-" He shouted again. "MOOOOOOOOO!!!" Then I understood the joke. The cow keeps interrupting me. He was good. Then we started telling even more jokes. We were laughing so hard, we forgot about not getting out of the cave. Then after he told me the story of him wrestling an alligator, we saw a light. We ran to it and it was the outside of the treehouse. WE DIDN'T DIE! We celebrated by doing the running man. I was killing it! So we went back inside and everyone was shocked. "How did... Weren't you... But didn't you?" They were so speechless, Mia was even questioning the whole thing. "Where the hell were you chump?" Mia looks like she was gonna kill me. "Dude! It's a long story. Let me explain please."

3 hours later

"And that's how we were in the front." Everyone finally got it. "So you and Mr. Mike were stuck in a cave. And you two were telling jokes to distract yourselves?" Jill questioned. "Yeah kinda," I replied. After we told that story, everyone ran back to what they were doing. Mike got bored and finally showed me how I was going to get my dad's car.
