RAINDROP

BY HAYLEY ARMSTRONG

Im flying! Im flying! Wait . . . IM FALLING!! Well, its really no big deal, considering that Im a raindrop. Ive been everywhere you can imagine. I saw a Tyrannosaurus Rex once. It was really scary! He was roaring and gnashing his teeth, and I wish I hadnt but I saw him rip a Pterodactyl right in half. I could hear him crunching on the bones, and blood coated his teeth when he roared again. When he leaned down to get a drink, I thanked the Lord when I got pushed out of the way by the ripple. A few hours later, I got soaked up by a big cloud. A few million years later, I was in a water tank on a ship called the Titanic. A few hours later, I was dunked into the sea, which rippled with the boat rowing and arm paddling and the screams and tears of all the terrified people. After being splashed onto the deck of a rescue boat, the next morning I got soaked up again. A few hundred years later I was in an innocent joggers water bottle. She had headphones on, so she couldnt hear people yelling WATCH OUT! and GET OUT OF THE WAY! If it werent for a kind gentleman, some flying debris wouldve hit her. A plane had crashed into a building and suddenly, it came crashing down, blowing black smoke and trash everywhere. Yes. I was in the middle of what would soon be called 9/11. The girl had dropped the bottle, and some sharp metal stabbed into the plastic, spewing water everywhere. After most of the smoke had cleared, I was evaporated and all I could hear was what seemed like 1,000,000,000,000 fire trucks and ambulances screaming from every direction. Now 11 years later, I am falling, falling, falling to the ground. I see 3 happy little girls pouring out their front door, equipped with green rain boots, blue raincoats, and purple rain hats. Im so happy to b a raindrop.
