The school bell finally rang and it was time to go back home. Everyone in the classroom, including the teacher, jumped out of their seats. But I stayed sitting, staring at the page in my composition book that was filled with sketches and cartoon characters and monsters.
" Come on Devin, school is over and I have to lock up" said my science teacher Mrs. Burton. She started to walk over to me." What is that" she asked curiously. I quickly flipped to another page hiding all the drawings that I did of her as a monster. She really liked me but I hated her. She would always pick me to ask the hardest questions a nod I would always get them wrong, then everyone would laugh at me. She also considers me as her class pet, and NO ONE wants to be a class pet. Especially in middle school.
" Um nothing Mrs, just some doodles" I said nervously, hoping that she wouldn't want to see them. She looked at the page filled with all my superhero drawings and nodded.
" These are pretty good, but make sure that they don't disrupt school work mister" she said commandingly. I nervously nodded and she let me go outside. I quickly ran down the hallway until I found my friend, Max.
" Hey Dev, what took you so long" he said throwing his hands up in the air. I took in a deep breath of air from running and said." Sorry, it was nothing."
The sky started to darken and the wind picked up." Come lets hurry, this is supposed to be the worst storm of this year" said Max. He picked up his backpack and we ran over to the bus stop.
The wind was strong now and it began to drizzle rain. We turned the corner to find that the bus had already left! We both stopped and took a deep breath of air.
" This is bad, this is BAD" I said starting to raise my voice. Max grabbed my shoulder and turned me around. He started to dial his moms phone number and she instantly picked up.
" Hi mom... No no no no, we are ok, I'm here with Dev but... Meet up at the lake... Ok got it, see you there" he rushed quickly hanging up the phone." I'm in big trouble" he said nervously. We started running over to the lake that was a few blocks away. Now is started to pour, and thunder. The winds were getting really strong and my hoodie flew back off of my head. Suddenly my notebook flew out of my hand and went flying through the air into the woods!
" No" I yelled as I turned around and started to chase it.
" Dev wait! My mom is getting us.. COME BACK" he yelled pit for me but I ignored it. This notebook was my life, at lest my middle school one. And it's been the best part of middle school, I just couldn't lose it forever!
I jumped over a log and saw it stuck in a tree. Behind me I heard Max running after me.
" Dev, we have to get to the car. This storm is gonna get a lot worse" he said nervously. I looked back at him and said," I'm not losing that notebook."
He stepped back and said," Well hurry up and get it." pointing at the tree that it was jammed into. I smiled and turned around just at the right time to see the notebook fly out of the tree over the canopy. I quickly ran after it.
The rain was making the ground all muddy and it splattered all over my shoe and jeans. The wind was blowing hard but luckily we were going with it. There was a large Boulder in the way and I quickly leaped up and grabbed onto it. Max and jumped onto it to so we could climb over it but it was to much weight! I heard was branches snap, and the rock began to slide down!
We both tried to stand up but the rock bounced and we went flying off of it down the side of a huge muddy hillside. Mud splashed into my face, up my nose, and in my mouth. Branches and twigs cut at my arms and legs. I clapped my eyes and tried to grab onto something but it all went down with the boulder.
