Benjamin Franklin “
One day, 44-year-old Benjamin franklin was out side flying his kite and was about to discover electricity when a field mouse ran up to him and laid on his shoe. A bolt of lighting struck the kite attached to a key, Ben finally noticed the mouse and turned the kite away into a cloud. On accident out of all the things that could happen he got warped into the...future! When he came to his senses he was laying in the candy aisle at a Target store. He was fascinated by Snickers, Reeses, and Skittles and ate them all up (literally!).
When he started walking he couldn’t figure out what “caution wet floor” meant. He walked around the sign and slipped all the way to the exit all he could think was “It must have said “new waxed floor don’t slip””.
When he reached to open the see-through door it opened all by itself! “Egad!” Ben said. Surprised, he walked through the door, but the guy behind the counter said “You haven’t paid for that
in the Future!
’’

candy!” Ben said “I’ll give you this gold” and pointed to a golf ball sized chunk of gold. The guy was like “wha? Ok?”.
Then Ben walked outside onto a street in New York City! Ben started to down Broadway and found a theater. It read “grease live today!” With white bright lights all around it. Ben thought, “I wonder what grease is and I wonder what these bright things run on?” A Guy walking by answered Bens question has if he was a mind reader “These things run on electricity. Benjamin Franklin invented electricity.” Ben said, “Is he alive?” and the Guy answered “No he died in 1790 at age 84”(note to who ever is reading this: Ben did die in 1790 at age 84). Then Ben said “What IS electricity?” Guy responded “First of all you look like you’re going to a costume party! Second of all stop playing dumb you know what it is”. Ben said “no I don’t!” Guy said “then let’s get you to a library!”
When Ben got to the library he was amazed. He had never seen so many books in his life. The Guy explained the library rules
and how it all works. Ben started to browse and found lots of books like Harry Potter, The Phantom Tollbooth, and many more (18 more actually).
He went to the history section and browsed. He found a book about Benjamin Franklin. Ben thought “This must be that Benjamin Franklin guy that the Guy was talking about”. As he was reading it he realized it sounded like his life! Then it made sense...HE was Benjamin Franklin! He explained it to the Guy. The Guy said “We shouldn’t let the word out!”
(Next day on newspaper): “Benjamin franklin still alive?!”
Guy said “oh no!” Ben, “what now?” and Guy “I don’t know but people must have heard us in the library!” They rushed to the Guy’s apartment, Ben finally asked the Guys name, and it was Raymond. Then he asked if they should tell the police about the newspaper report and Raymond said no one else should know. Raymond told Ben “You better stay with me for a little. People
might want to sell you and paparazzi you”. Raymond taught Ben about the modern world for 3 months. He liked the inventions of the modern word but missed his family. Ben decided to go back the way he came so he bought a kite and a key, and waited for a storm to come. He waited and waited and waited and waited and waited for what seemed like forever then a storm brewed and ben stood in central park and let the kite fly zzzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaaaaapppppppppppp he was home!!!!!! Ben walked home to meet his son, he ate dinner, went to bed, when he woke up he forgot about all his adventures but to this day no one knows if his visit helped out his inventions. Then all the Raymond’s he ever met he liked for some weird reason but he could never lay his finger on it (by the way candy never tasted the same dun dun dun ). He had a good life after his adventure. He became famous in history and children made stories about him (like me!) and his soul lived on forever. The End.
