        The two boys ran into a clearing where a single moon beam was illuminating on an object in the middle of it. Ryan and Andrew are considered to be young men and therefore were intrigued by this object and decided to approach it. What if this object were a bomb? A young man’s thoughts clearly didn’t hold suspicion. Lucky for Andrew and Ryan, it was not a bomb but instead a mushroom. This particular mushroom was right in the middle of making clones of itself through a process of asexual reproduction. More and more smaller versions of this average-sized brown mushroom popped up all over the clearing without care. As curious Ryan and Luke approached this intriguing mushroom, this mushroom sensed their presence, turned around, grinned a huge grin, and said, “Hi! My name is Daniel! Can you be my friends?”

        That was it! Ryan screamed as loudly as he could which is categorized as a “little girl’s scream” and punted the mushroom through the woods and onto a nearby beach Once Princess Jessica caught her indecent “Prince Charming” seducing another girl she had run through the forest and stopped at the nearby beach which just happened to be the same one the Daniel-mushroom landed. Coincidentally enough, this beach was her father’s private beach The troubled princess was sitting on the beach, wallowing in self-pity because— come on! She was Princess Jessica! The sweetheart of the kingdom! It simply wasn’t fair. Who rejected her,PrincessJessica?! As she was wallowing in self-pity the Daniel-mushroom landed at her feet.

        It turned toward her and grinned yet again. Before the Daniel-mushroom could jovially greet, “Hi! My name is Daniel,” she screamed and kicked it into the sea. The mushroom slowly sank to the bottom of the ocean where it meets a clownfish by the name of Sebastian. Sebastian had never seen a mushroom before and highly disturbed by it since the Daniel-mushroom still had its grin on wide and proud. The Daniel-mushroom attempted to say “Hi, my name is Daniel,” yet again but unfortunately, it was too late. Sebastien, frowning, nudged the Daniel-mushroom over the near-by abyss. Down, down, down the Daniel-mushroom went in darkness and freezing water until it slowly started to warm up again.

        The Daniel-mushroom continued to sink towards the bottom of the mushroom with hope. Maybe he can return to his clone-friends in his lovely clearing that he could call home. Sadly, his fate was not so. The Daniel-mushroom soon came face-to-face with magma, magma that will burn the Daniel-mushroom to a dead, crispy, mushroom and because of science, the Daniel-former-mushroom will become an igneous rock and hope to somehow return home. That poor Daniel-mushroom, may it rest in peace? It’s truly a wonder how the Wilson-mushroom survived such low temperatures and such a long time without usable oxygen.  

        As the Daniel-mushroom sank to its death, the boys, after clearing/eating the Daniel-mushroom clones, decided to rest there in that very clearing. An hours later a young girl ran into the clearing awakening the boys. Glancing at her messy and tired form, the boys could tell that she was on the run from someone. After pausing to catch her breath a little bit, she scanned the area, over looking the confused Ryan and Andrew, and ran out of the clearing without  acknowledging them.

        Then a boy ran into the clearing slightly out of breath. His short, spiky blond hair was drenched in sweat and his slightly chubby cheeks were red from the night; he looked tired and angry. “Um…hi? My name is Jackson and well... I’m looking for this girl. She is…”

        Before he could finish Ryan cut in. “Yeah, yeah, yeah. She’s your true love? She ran away from you. And let me guess…she’s a princess. I feel you bro I really do.”

        The blonde boy stood there frowning. “Um…no. Her name is Sarah and she is my…um I don’t really know how to explain her…” this blonde boy began to trail off and mutter, “my classmate? Acquaintance? Girl I know? Friend? Sure that works.” The blond boy turned back to Ryan and Andrew, and with confidence said, “She is my friend’s best friend.”
