Johnny Myth

Once upon a time, there was a kid named Johnny. Johnny was a normal boy from Tennessee. He was in the fifth grade and didn’t like school, but loved all of his teachers. He would do anything for his teachers, and this unfortunate flaw was what dragged him into this story that I am about to tell.

         It was a normal afternoon for Johnny, he was about to exit lunch and enter his favorite class, English. Johnny loved English and his teacher made it even better.  His teacher, Mr. Stromberg was Johnny’s idol. He looked up to Stromberg, and even wanted to be him. On this strange day as Johnny was walking into class, Mr. Stromberg stopped him and asked him to stay with him for a few minutes. So, because Johnny liked him so much, he happily obliged. After the entire class entered the room and sat down, Mr Stromberg and Johnny walked out of the classroom. After the door shut, Mr Stromberg looked down at Johnny and said, “Johnny I need you to do me a very important favor.”

        

Johnny looked up very hopeful and asked, “What do you need me to do?”

“I need you to get me a stapler from the copy room”, said Mr. Stromberg.

         As soon as the task was given, Johnny was off. He was navigating throughout the hallways of his elementary school to find the copy room. He encountered his unexpected foe, the media cart. While most media carts are harmless, this certain one had mad cart disease. This cart started barreling towards Johnny as fast as it could, and at the last moment Johnny dived out of the path of the way to survive and keep his journey alive. Finally, after what seemed for hours, Johnny arrived at his destination, the copy room. As Johnny slowly entered, he realized that it was nothing he had expected. It was all white and very quaint, like a room in a mental hospital. Johnny sees his prize, but he could not reach it so he had to come up with a plan. He decided to stack the copy paper he found in a corner to scale to claim his prize. Shortly after he did, he returned with his prize and was celebrated as a hero by the entire fifth grade class. Johnny will be forever known as the “stapler saver”.
