The House on Maple Street

By Sean

       While the family was out for dinner, a criminal put rockets under the house. He tip-toed behind a bush and waited quietly for the family to come home. When the family came home, the criminal became very excited. He punched a button on a remote. It was a perfect lift-off. The parents were screaming and yelling as the house took off.

        The criminal heard the parents screaming and yelling to each other, “Who do you think did this?” the mom asked. “I don’t know!” the dad answered. “Let’s call the police!” said the mom. The dad searched his pocket for his phone. “I must have forgotten my iPhone at the restaurant” the dad said.

       The children ran up to the attic because they were frightened that the person that put the rockets under the house was inside. A little later, while hiding in the attic, the kids spotted a remote control that said “rocket controls.” They rushed down the stairs to get their parents. The mom said, “There’s a button that says parachute” and they hit it. The house landed safely back where it belonged.

        The neighbors called the police when they saw the house blasting off. The criminal was just wandering around the block seeing what other trouble he could make. He knew he was in trouble when he saw the flashing red and blue lights. ”I’m innocent, I’m innocent” he screamed as the police drove him away to jail. Everybody in the family was happy because their life was back to normal.
