'Spike's+Mining+Team'+by+Jalen

Brownie was a scientist in Auckland. This stuffed bear has been studying crystals like emeralds for a year, three in fact. Meanwhile after playing Leemings Spike the stuffed monkey was old enough to have a license, so he got Frownie and drove to Brownie’s lab. “Spike, you’re just in time,” said the excited stuffed bear (Brownie of course). The beam of light beamed on a strange and very rare light blue marble. The marble mutated into a ghost like dinosaur. The dinosaur had a strange light blue glow. “Spike meet Manko,” interrupted the ghost. “So this is the future,” said Manko.. Just then one of Brownie’s crew rushed to Brownie, “ Sir, the marble’s pressure can’t hold.” Too late the marble exploded and Manko was solid. “Your latest experiment?” moaned Spike. “It was a minor accident,” said the worried but excited at the same time stuffed bear. “Anyway I want to go and check out the mine on Dreach Street,” Spike murmured.

“Sweet,” Brownie said excitedly.

“Oh bother,” moaned Frownie, “in the ground with nerd boy. This is going to be exciting,” finished Frownie.

Later the three stuffed toys (and Manko) made their way to the mine, or should I say, the abandoned mine!!!

“Oh, now I see, you connected the blue wires with the red wire.” Said Manko. He was learning cabling, which was useful for emergencies, say like if they’re in a machine which isn’t working (and they’re trapped). Manko can connect the emergency cables. He’s learning quite well, in fact he’s finished right now! In the mine they got some mining tools, apparently there were five guns on the table. Manko picked one up.

“Manko, don’t!...” Bang! “pull the trigger,” yelled Browny.

Manko shot a digger. The digger drilled around our heroes. Since the ground was thin, the ground beneath the stuffed toys (and Manko of course) fell, then the machine covered the hole with dirt. Under the ground the four heroes survived. Luckily Brownie was a great map reader.

”There’s an underground mine with an elevator. It’s for miners getting in or out. If we cross Sandy Main, it will be right in the only valley,” explained Frownie.

“That sounds easy,“ said Spike. So they started their adventure.

On the way Brownie collected crystals that were stuck to the walls. Luckily for Spike he packed a bad. It had: guns that fell in his bag, sleeping bags, a tank full of water, bananas (of course), matches, and firewood. Frownie carried the tent that was given to them by Frownie and Spike’s camp (basically the camp that they both went to). It was pretty long. When they got Hazy (a place on the underground), drool kept on falling on Frownie’s shirt, and every time he looked up, there was nothing but the desert ceiling.

Manko said, “It is old Rex, the carnivore eating machine.”

Spike suggested, “Hide in the plants.”

“No the T Rex will smell us,” Brownie explained.

“Me and the old folk always hide in the rocks, ground and water,” Manko explained ass well.

So Manko hid underground, Frownie hid between the rocks, Spike and Brownie hid in the lake.

The four heroes heard the clomping sound of the T Rex stamping and tripping over the rocks. Spike thought: what a clumsey T. Rex. Just then the (clumsey) T. Rex tripped over the last rock in the Hazy.
