Open And Max's Dad example essay topic

On a field over a plain sat a very brown old sunken house. The light in the upper window flickered and then was a steady beam. The door from the hallway creaked open as a voice softly rang out, "Hunny Dumpling, time to wake up". The light blared from a candle lit lamp in the hallway and it was very hard to keep one eye from shutting. A skinny teenaged boy rose from the bed and looked to the person in the door, "Thanks mom".

Next to the bed laid a card that read: Funny wishes, What a funny way, I think you " re really funny, So have wonderful day! Happy Birthday and here are some plane tickets... I'll see you soon Max, Love Dad! Laying next to the card was a ticket to London that read one-way-only. "Are you packed and ready to go, I take it you got your toothbrush, what about -- -" She was cut off as Max stared at her with a smile.

"Mom, I told you I got everything let's just get going". He was still grinning as his mom picked up the phone and called for a taxi to take them to the airport. Still grinning Max fell back upon his bed and said to himself, "I'm going to see my dad". The taxi pulled up to the airport two hours later, Max watched in amazement with his mouth opened as a big jet flew right over him. Looking at the time in the must old taxi he noticed he had about ten minutes to get to the plane.

Running through the hallways, down and up flights of stairs, and through checkout counter. He finally reached his 11 o'clock flight to London. As he found his seat and buckled up the loud speaker above his head blared, "This is your captain speaking, please remain seated and buckled as we take off. Please look at the alarm and safety sheet in front of you. Thankyou". The plane roared like thunder and started to speed down the runway.

Max looked out of the window as lights on the pavement below flashed and whizzed by. They picked more and more speed, then it happened the plane started to climb into the sky higher and higher. Max had sweat the size of chicken eggs rolling down his face. Then to his surprise a women with sunny blonde hair, a nice white uniform, and a name tag the read "Pennelopee Kirnmen: Flight Attendant and Supervisor" She looked into his eyes and said, "I got a message before take off that this was the first plane flight you have been on, actaully there is nothing to worry about. The only things that happen up here is lightning strikes and head on collisions, but it is both clear and thunder less up here". She said so sweetly, but Max wasn't to sure about her.

She stood up and winked at him. "Nothing can happen up here, huh". Max thought to himself for a minute before dozing off. Max awoke to what seemed to be three hours later. His heart was pumping so fast that it seemed something had happened, something was wrong. "Oh well, everything seems normal it must have just been a dream -- -" Just as he thought this the power to the plane had cut out.

There was motion across the aisle, though he could not see he had heard voices. Though, the voices were in a whisper he made out something one figure said to another. "Do you have it, DO YOU HAVE IT... Did you get the thing for the boy?" Max had remembered getting on the plane and noticing only two other boys and they were in another class.

Max didn't know what they would want from him. What was this thing. Max knelt down below his seat and crawled closer to where the two men talked. He could here more clearly now, "Haven't you got it yet. You " re not going to screw this up for me. The only reason we did this was to get it from him.

His mother will kill me if she finds out I have done this". His mother? What has she got to do with this? Max felt something up against the back of his head. The lights flickered and came on again.

The thing resting against the back of his head was the tip of a barrel on a gun. A masked man was holding a gun to him as he spoke to the others. "Look boss, I caught him listening to you two. Suppose he knows now?"Urgg, he knows nothing we have not said anything. Get it from him and let's get out of here.

Get the vial". The man next to him pulled out a syringe and stuck it into Max's arm. Drawing the blood out of him the man and Max caught eyes. Max only knew one defense against a man that was hurting him and so he kicked him right between the legs. Urgg tried to catch Max but he simply went under the big oaf.

He was almost there, almost to safety. He was an inch from the door to the cockpit when he felt a pulling sensation. He was caught by the lead man. The man lifted Max off his feet and held him next to the door leading out of the airplane. Holding him steady he said, "Boy, you don't know what you " re getting into".

But as he said this Max yanked the black ski mask right his face. He could not believe what he had seen, how could this be. He opened his mouth and nothing came out. He tried to say something but all that came out was", -- Dad -- ?" At these words the door burst open and Max's dad had dropped him out of the plane.

Max fell farther and farther, yet closer and closer to the ground. Then something happened. Wings sprouted from his back. Like popping veins they bloomed from his back keeping him afloat.
