Diego S. 4 S

Swish Swoosh

As I and my cousin are walking down the porch stairs.  We started playing tag (of course I always get tagged). My cousin is 13. She’s fast, strong, she’s the kind of person who makes the games that she and I play.Then all of a sudden we heard a splash coming from my grandma’s pond. Then we ran to the pond (of course my cousin got there first)As soon as I got there and I looked at her for a second and her mouth dropped! I looked where she was staring at. I turned around and my mouth dropped. I couldn’t picture what it was. But it had a suspicious shadow. And it was hovering over the pond.  My cousin peered through one of the gate holes I saw it better now. It had a silverish look and a part of it started moving. Now we stepped back. Then it started moving all over the place. We stepped back even more then we heard laughing. It was coming from a tree. It looks like a person, but how can he get into a large tree. A person came down a, tree house ladder and the neighbor said “sorry it’s my new speed boat”.
