Bodhi Teddy and I, three mischievous students who loved to go on adventures, were sitting in the history classroom at EPS. The class was about to start, and we were already bored out of our minds on this typical Monday morning. At least everyone thought it would be a typical Monday. “All right, everyone, take your seats; it’s 8:30. Let’s get this morning started; TA will start us off by reading the schedule,” said Mr. Winkelmann. “Ok, first up, we have Calvin and Hobbes and then jobs…” said the TA. “Anyone wants to do Calvin and Hobbes today,” Asked Mr. Winkelmann. “I do,” said Bodhi, Teddy, and me simultaneously. “Okay, go ahead and start,” said Mr. Winkelmann.
Suddenly, the classroom started shaking, the desks fell over, and a blinding light appeared. We could not see anything for 10 seconds, then abruptly, I could see again. There was a symbol of an eagle. Everyone looked at the eagle in shock; no one knew what was happening. The eagle then smashed into the window and flew up into the sky. We were still confused by what had just happened. But Mr. Winkelmann told everyone to start picking up the desks. He called Bodhi, Teddy, and I outside of the classroom. We were still confused and shocked by what happened, but we followed him. “Are we in trouble?” asked Teddy as soon as we left the classroom. “No, of course not,” said Mr. Winkelmann, I need to tell you guys something. He explained that the eagle symbol was the sign of the god Edgar the Eagle. He also explained that he chose us to go on an adventure with him to figure out why Edgar had called them up to the heavens.
We were excited to go, but there was one problem: how would we get to the heavens? Mr. Winkelmann was a god, subordinate or lower in rank to Edgar, but he is still a god, so he answered our question by summoning an enormous eagle. We understood that this was our ride to the heavens. We hopped on, and the next thing we knew, we were flying on an enormous eagle. The eagle flew into the clouds for 5 minutes until we reached what we thought was the heavens. But this was just the entryway to the heavens. Even though we had left the classroom, Mr. Winkelmann’s students acted responsibly and continued to work on their project even though we were outside of the classroom and the school, to be precise. Finally, when we reached the heavens, Bodhi, Teddy, and I were in awe. The heavens were beautiful. Mr. Winkelmann told us to follow him, and we walked onto the clouds. Luckily, we did not fall in because the clouds had been cast with magic spells. We walked and walked until we reached an Eagle-shaped castle. I assumed this was where Edgar the Eagle lived. At the castle gate, we were greeted by two eagle-looking guards. When we got closer, they asked us why we were there. “We are here because Edgar the Eagle sent us a symbol,” said Mr. Winkelmann. They agreed and walked with us to the front of the castle. At the front of the castle, we were greeted by Edgar the Eagle. He said, “Hi.”
We were still in shock from everything that had happened that day, but A talking Eagle! Mr. Winkelmann asked Edgar, “Why did you send us a symbol.” Edgar explained that he wanted to do something back because Mr. Winkelmann did a good deed for him by creating the EPS logo. “What do you want to do asked Bodhi.” “Well, it’s easier for me to show you,” said Edgar. We followed him into the castle and saw what he meant there. A shining golden mug, he told us that Mr. Winkelmann loved to drink stuff, but he never had anything cool to drink out of. So, I created a child’s tear mug. “No offense, Mr. Winkelmann, but your old plain white mug was kinda lame,” said Edgar the Eagle. “Wow, that’s sick, thanks Edgar,” replied Mr. Winkelmann. “You’re very welcome,” said Edgar. “Well, I think that’s the end of this adventure said Mr. Winkelmann.” “One last thing, I cast the mug with a special spell so that every time a kid cries because of a test, their tears will fill up the mug, so you don’t have to,” said Edgar. “Oh, wow, thanks, we better be heading out right now,” said Mr. Winkelmann. We hopped back onto our Eagle and flew back to school. What a great day of adventure. It’s not a boring old Monday.
