The Beginning of the End
It was a sunny day, I was talking with my family in the cucumber patch. We were simply enjoying ourselves when suddenly, it went dark. Giant claws of some sort picked me off the the ground and I was dropped into a basket with many of my friends. They just as confused as I was. We were taken through a portal and into a darker and colder room. We were put on a table and we saw a large jar. Then, the same large claws that took me from my home put me in the jar. It was very crowded. Everyone I knew was packed in that jar, but the worst part was still to come. I looked out the side of the jar and saw a large figure that moved on two legs and had long appendages with claws on the end that matched the ones that grabbed me. The creature opened a door and pulled out another jar with liquid that was green and clear. The creature then walked over and took the liquid and poured it in the jar. All my friends and I were screaming as we drowned in the liquid. Then, we were put in a container. It was dark. I don't know how long we were in the jar, but a long time later, the jar was taken out of that container. We were set on the same table before many more of those same evil creatures. The creatures grabbed some claws that were shiny and the top of the jar was taken off. Then, one by one, my friends were taken to their deaths. They were cut into slices and put into a sandwich. I as I watched in horror, they were eaten. Finally, none of them were left. I was taken by the claw. I was placed on a flat surface. The beings were looking right at me and had the same utensils that killed my friends. Before I knew it, I could see my insides and pieces of me scattered over the surface. My blood was leaving me, I began to feel light headed and was put in a sandwich. It went dark. Then, meeting my fate, I felt my spongy sarcophagus be lifted up and it was slowly crushed. After that, I was gone.

Nice job with the point of view piece and being the cucumber on the way to being a pickle
ReplyDeleteThis piece was really funny. I loved your descriptions and the way you were really able to get yourself into the character of the pickle. Nice job!
