 Gabby said, "Oh why are we so small? How am I going to...nevermind." What if we find a way to get back to normal size said Billy. I doubt we will get back to normal size. Maybe you're right. Wow! Wait Billy watch out! Phew, that was close. What is that bright green thing over there? Come on let's go check it out. Gabby can you read this? It's too small for me. It says, "Do you want to get back to normal size? Then drink me!" Let's drink it. Okay, gulp... Awesome. We are back to our original size! Now I get back to my top secret job! Oops! What top secret job, said Billy? It's nothing. Okay. I guess we can get back to our lives. Goodbye.

 Landon said, "We should go to space and visit Mars. So Landon and Billy Bear snuck out of the igloo and went to Wal-mart. So we got in the mustang and headed to Wal-mart. We got to Wal-mart and bought our rocket. It was $15.00. We went to a place where nobody was around and we got the rocket out of the car. We put it on the ground and we were about to get in but it was too small. It was a TOY. We turned it over and it said ages 3U. And that meant 3 AND UNDER.  That's why people in the store were looking at Landon and Billy Bear wierdly. Wal-mart was about an hour away but the horse convention was right up the road so they went into it. They bought a horse for $39.99. Then it started getting rainy but still sunny. A rainbow it was cool looking. So then we got on the horse and went to the end of the rainbow. A couple miles down the road they found it. The horse went up the rainbow. We went so high. We finally made it to space. We were floating even the horse. It was so cool. We were flying, our dreams came true. But we had to find Mars. So we started. We were floating really slow. We tried to go faster but it did not work. It took a half-hour to find Mars. We got there. We went on Mars and found a one eyed monster. We jumped off Mars and went home. We are never leaving the house again.
