a story I wrote, continued : The Portal to Nature 2: The Mighty Redwood Tree

CLICK HERE for Part 1 of this story.

One day, a man named Phil was tornado chasing. But the next thing Phil knew was that his truck was starting to fly off the ground in the rough wind. Then a mysterious portal came out and it brought him to the same place after he crashed his plane last time. It was the Land of Animals.

Phil encountered the same spider monkey again. He wanted Phil to go on a hike and show him the neighborhood. Phil did not refuse. He said yes. So they started their journey.

This journey was a little fun and a little dangerous. The place was he was going to was where the giant redwood tree lived. The hike was not exactly for fun. It was for a mission to, “Protect the mighty redwood tree.” the Spider Monkey exclaimed.

The spider monkey told Phil that they might need a little luxury. The luxury was Albatross Airlines! They went to the Ocean Airlines which was the other name for Albatross Airlines. So they went across the ocean on an airplane.

The sea can be very dangerous with all those seas storms. Especially if they are full hurricane force, which nothing can stop, not even boats and definitely not the Titanic. They went through a sea storm... hurricane force. They were lucky... Extremely lucky that is. They got a lot of money for doing that from the mayor. They got the money so fast because the mayor was on the plane too.

They made it to where the mighty redwood tree was. But they still had a little more hiking to do. Then the spider monkey noticed that they were lost. An old Galapagos tortoise came along and the spider monkey knew this tortoise. The tortoise knew the whole land. The tortoise told them where they were and that they were near the redwood tree.

They saw the mighty redwood tree. The tree spoke and said, “Hello.” The spider monkey forgot to mention that trees can talk around here. The redwood tree was extremely powerful. It had super powers. It could zap lighting and it was so tall that it was above the clouds. The spider monkey forgot to tell them why they were on a mission to save the mighty redwood tree. “You see,” the monkey said, “Since you were the first one to get into our portal, many other people found the portal and want to build their homes here. They even want to chop down the mighty redwood tree. Many other animals will come here to protect the tree. It seems that we are the first ones here.” said the spider monkey. Other animals came and they started to guard the tree, even Galapagos tortoises.

The rhinoceros came. Then aardvarks. Every animal in Animal-land came. Then the people came. The rhinos used their horns to confuse all of the humans and throw them up in the air. The aardvarks used their claws to distract them. The elephants confused their opponents with their trunks. The redwood tree thanked them for saving the last of his kind.

The king who was an anaconda brought Phil home.

The end.

Footnote: The redwood tree exists. You can find it in California. And rhinos really do use their horns to throw lions in the air.
