SCOTTIE KNOT THE GREAT ADVENTURE


Hello! My name is Scottie, Scottie Knot. What you're about to read is one of my favorite Adventures.

It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in sumner, and I was happily whistling as I strolled along the streets. I was in a nice mood, I popped in the shop on Long Street to get some food. I was so busting to go to the toilet, so I climbed my way down the shopping centre. There was one minute to the shop was closing, so I quickly went in.
When I was finished I flushed the toilet. And opened the door. 
''Help," Scottie screamed in terrer
I was stuck in the toilet I was so stressed. Too bad it was so dark in here! In fact, it was pitch-black. All that darkness reminded me, I hate small space. I took a deep breath. There was nothing to do but wait. So I removed my jacket to use Like a pillow. The shops reopened on monday Scottie thought.
"RING, RING." 
"That's my cell phone," I said
I'm stuck in the toilet please please can you come and save me. It was Sebby my best friend.
''What was the last word you said."
''I am stuck in a toilet, at the store on Long Street,"
 I will be there in a second.

Sebby is a adventurer guy. So he should know how to get me out of a toilet.
There was a bang on the door is that you Sebby, no it's not, it's Tomo, Sebby tolled me you were stuck in the toilet. 
Creak the door slowly opened, Scottie came rolling out. Thank you Sebby, and thank you Tomo. Sebby grabbed and heeded for the roof, out of no where a helicopter. I decided not to go, but Sebby dragged me in. Sebby gave me a pair of sunglasses, just like his. "Put these on! Under the seat you'll find a backpack stuffed with everything you need for where we're going." 
Now I was really worried. Why was he being so mysterious? "Soooo, where are we going?"
Sebby chuckled. "Let's play a game, champ. You like games, don't you?"
I smiled nervously. I do like games, but mostly board games.
"See if you can guess," Sebby continued. 
"It's a place lot's of sand."
''The beach.?" 
He snorted. "A beach? you wish cheesy!"
I tried again. "The Hamster Islands?"
"Where we're going is much, much, much smaller than an island, champ!" he declared. "In fact, it's almost smaller then 10 square meters! It's hot there. It gets up to 40 degrees! And it's very dry. It never rains!" 
 "It's a sandpit."
"A sandpit are you crazy I have never gone in a sandpit before."
Sebby had finally gotten control of himself. "I bet you're wondering where the beach is, right?'' He burst out laughing again.
But that was no beach. It was the school sandpit.
"If you don't cover yourself up with sunblock from the tip of your toes to the tip of you head, you'll be in agony!" he bellowed.
"Out here, you need a sunblock that can protect you from 40 degree weather!"
Sebby gave me all these tests by scared me with a toy scorpion, tripping me up and giving me a block of cheeses with worms in it. Suddenly I realized he was just making me brave. He also covered me with bees. He made me do exercise while the temperature kept rising. After than I looked like a baked human!
He dragged me off to the tent. I was so relieved. I couldn't wait to curl into a ball and fall asleep.

The next morning, I woke at dawn. I heard a helicopter sound outside the tent there Sebby was waiting for me. I was so grateful that the adventure was over.
Once we got home I sherd my adventure to all the people I new.
