Fleece in the Cupboard

by J.M.

It was my birthday.  My 9th birthday. I had gotten a cupboard. Mom said it was to keep my stuff organized. Ha! Doesn’t my mom know?  It is impossible to keep me organized!  But, I put my stuffed  animal
Fleece in the cupboard before bed.

   “  Arr …Arrr  …Arrr… Arrr …Arrr …Arrr …Arrr!!!!!!!!!!!!! ”  That was the sound I woke up to.  I rolled over three times and pinched myself, that’s when I finally decided that I was not dreaming. I stared at the clock on my nightstand. 6:30. It defiantly wasn’t my alarm clock, so what was it? I followed the strange sound to my new cupboard. I opened the door and there was Fleece! Except for she was different! She was alive!  She was yelling,  “Fleece wants a apple pie!”  She ran out of my room and went bounding down the hall.  She ran into my sister’s room and yelled “Fleece want an apple pie”.  My sister turned around, and the moment she saw Fleece she let out an ear-piercing scream.  Fleece ran out of the room crying.  So, I took her downstairs and mom promised her she’d make an apple pie.  Fleece stopped crying.  My parent’s let her stay because she always helped my mom make the beds!
