The Day

The Day

“Who’s ready for a field trip?” I screamed with excitement to the students in my class.

“Me!”they all yelled.

We were heading on a field trip into space to learn about the solar system. The children were super excited and but I was worried that something would go wrong.

At 10am we boarded the spaceship and soon after we had lift off.

“3, 2, 1 lift off” the spaceship pilot screamed.

We blasted into space, the first step of the trip is done I thought to myself. Halfway through the trip there was a loud bang. The kids started to freak out and cry. They cried so much that eventually their eyes were as dry as a bone.

An asteroid had hit the rocket. All of a sudden we were heading towards another galaxy and the pilot was nowhere to be seen. I looked for the problem and

“oh no we need spare parts”I mumbled.

Once the children knew what was happening  I put on a space suit and left in search for something to use we needed a new pipe.

About 3 minutes later I was almost out of air and just before I went back to the kids and gave up something caught my eye, a pipe floating to my right. As quick as a fox I grabbed it, there was writing on it that said made in USA 1959. I came back, took off my suit and got to work fixing the ship. Before I knew it the pipe was replaced.

I headed up to the cockpit and realised that I had no idea how to drive it but luckily I knew how to turn on auto pilot and set a coordinates.

15 minutes later something terrible happened, we were attacked by aliens. They locked us up in a laser cage, luckily I came prepared, I had a broken piece of a mirror and I used it to reflect one of the lasers onto the ground to make a hole so we could escape from “the evil space demons” one of my students call them.

We jumped through the hole into another room that had robotic suits, I couldn’t believe my eyes. We all hopped into one and BOOM!!! someone blasted a hole in the door using one of the suits weapons. We stormed out firing our guns at any alien we could see and before we knew it they were all dead. I knew their parents would be mad, but it’s better than their children dying.

Once we found the command center, I set the coordinates and we shot off in a burst of light towards earth. We were going so fast that we went from Saturn to Jupiter in less than a minute and soon after we were in the earth’s atmosphere. Then all of a sudden SPLASH!!! we landed in the middle of Lake Taupo, New Zealand. We hopped out of the spacecraft but the shore was too far away to swim to. Five hours passed and finally someone was brave enough to investigate the crash. We were taken to land soon after. We were finally safe, or were we?
