Chapter 1 I Dream BIG!

Hello World!

I'm Thomas Flute, and I'm here to tell you how, I saved the world from the nasty, most awful, most frighting monster ever. like ever...
  It was one summer day when my pet pig, Oinky and I were out for a walk and we stumbled across, well I don't exactly know.
  It was a small cube that was clear that made it look like a crystal but had the texture of plastic.
  So I picked it up and put it in my pocket.
  As Oinky and I continued on our way, I couldn't wait to add the strange plastic thing-a-ma-jig  to my collection of strange treasures.
  My collection varied from petrified wood to chewed gum.
  It may seem a little strange to you but hey, my father told me, "One man's junk is another man's treasure."
  So yeah, chewed gum is one of my treasures. Of course I don't chew it, I just use it for scientific purposes, like how long does it take the gum to get solid after you chew it?
  Most of the things that I store in my treasure box is mostly for the study of science of course but the things that I don't use may one day make me stinking rich.

  Once Oinky and I got home I put my pig friend back into his kennel and then ran inside to store my new unidentified treasure where it belonged.
 In my room, and under my bed was a shoe box that I used to keep all of my strange little treasures in.
  I placed the new found object into the filled shoe box then placed it gently back under my bed.
  After that my stomach grumbled as if it said, "FEED ME!"
  I didn't realize how hungry I was until now, so I went downstairs to find myself my favorite snack, Crackers and Cheese.
*
  Later that night the two people that I care the most about came home. My Mom and Dad both had jobs during the summer and the school year so they could earn just enough money to pay for taxes and put some food in our refrigerator.
   "Dad, Mom! Oinky and I found a new treasure." I said as I ran to give them a hug.
  "Oh and what might that be my boy?" My father asked with his deep British accent.
  "Well nothing much, I'd recon. Just a plastic Thing-a-ma-jig."
  My father smiled as he said, "Well go on, go get it."
  "Okay, I'll be back in a sec." I said as I ran back up the stairs.
  I walked into my room and grabbed my treasure box from under my bed then opened it up.
  . . .My mind had nearly exploded... Inside, all the objects had turned into that clear plastic.
  "Ho-how-how?" I asked myself.
  One second my box is full of normal things and then the next its plastic.
  I had found the original plastic thing-a-ma-jig and picked it up. Starring at the plastic cube I asked it, "What are you?"
  Then all of the sudden the plastic cube flashed.
  It had turned my fingers into plastic, then it rose up my arm and up to my shoulder.
  It rose so fast that by the time it reached my neck I had dropped the cube.
  But even without the cube touching me the plastic stuff still rose it went over my lips and nose, "Help Mom, Dad! Help!"
 It spread over my body and hit my feet before I even knew it. It had turned my body into that clear plastic stuff.
  Dad came into the room with a baseball bat in his hand, when he saw me, he fainted.
