We worked every day and after 6:00 P.M on some nights, we would got together and goto a movie, go home, have dinner and watch TV. On other nights, I would call My aunt and ask if we can come over and have dinner at Her house. But this was one night where Me and Billy agreed to go and see a movie. We chose the movie Twister. On our way to the movies, we met up with this guy. He did seem familiar, but to make sure, I asked, "What is Your Name?" "Cestro," He replied. "And You're Eddie and Billy!" "How do You know our Names?" Billy asked Him. "I saw You Two on Television." He said. "Listen up, Cestro! We don't appear on Television!" I told Him. "Where do You live that You were able to see us on Television?" I asked Him. "I live on a planet named aquitar, and I saw You on Television." He said. We were shocked. Names like Cestro and Aquitar only existed in Donkey Kong Country 2. Their was a stage names Cestro's Contest, but now Me and Billy know that this guy really exists. And in the game their was an area named Aquitar Aquarium, but now He tells us He comes from a planet with that Name -- Aquitar! This is too good to be true. As all three of us walked down the block, Cestro made us an offer. He said, "How would You two like to spend a few days on Aquitar?" "Are You kidding?" I asked Him. "No, I really mean it." Said Cestro. "But, I can't take You to Aquitar for free. If You wanna come, You gonna have to both pay Me $100 for round trip." Cestro seemed to sound like Klubba, but we tried to compromise anyway. "How about if we pay You just $100 for both Me and Billy?" I asked. "No, it's $200. Either take it or leave it." Said Cestro. I tried one more time. "How about $150? We both pay You $75." I said. "That's fine. I'll wait here, You go over to that ATM and get Me $150!" He said. We went to the ATM and within a few minute we had $150. "Here You go, Cestro, $150!" I said, handing Him the money. "Ok, You two. Follow Me." Said Cestro. "Wait, we can't just go like this. We have to go and pack up. Please, Cestro, can You come with us so we can tell our friends where You are taking us?" "Ok, but I must return to My ship within an Hour. It's 7:00 P.M, so at 8:00 P.M, we will depart." Said Cestro. Not only did He know our Names, He even knew what time it was on Earth. The first place we went was My home. Cestro came with Me. I took a few clothes, a camera, some food, and My walkman and packed them in a suitcase. I took only 15 minutes. Then we stopped by Billy's House. He took about the same things. Then we took cestro to Professor Hart's Lab to let Him know where were going. The Planeteers came to the lab to say good bye to us. Then Me, Billy, and Cestro hopped aboard the Geocruier with the Planeteers to take us to Cestro's ship. We landed by Cestro's ship and got off, Cestro said, "Let's Go." The Planeteers, Kwame, Wheeler, Linka, Alpha, and Mate got off and waved goodbye. "We'll be back in a few days," I said. We got aboard Cestro's Ship. It had no windows. We could see the Planeteers waving goodbye, then the door slid shut. We could no longer see them. "Are You ready for take off?" Asked Cestro. "Yes, let's go." I said. "He goes." He said. We could feel the ship lifting off. Suddenly, the ship started moving faster and faster. Only Cestro could see outside the ship. "Can You open the windows so we can see outside?" Billy asked. "Sure," Said Cestro as He pushed a button. Doors opened and we can see the Earth get smaller and smaller until were were in space. Soon we started to ask Cestro a few question about our trip. "How long will it take for us to reach Aquitar?" I asked Cestro. "About 5 hours, so get comfortable." He replied. Then I had a little chat with Billy. "Can You believe it? We we're just going to the movies to see Twister and now we're on our way to Aquitar?" I asked Billy. "Yeah, Right. I wonder if our Wrist Communicator Watches work, we need Communication with our friends on Earth?" Billy asked, trying to contact Professor Hart. "Come in Professor." Billy said, speaking into His wrist Commicator. "I read You, Billy." Said Professor Hart. I could clearly hear the Professor speaking. So far, our communications with Professor Hart were with us. And, when we tried contacting the Planeteers, the reception was pretty good. "How's it going up their, Eddie, Billy?" I could hear Wheeler asking us. "It's fine so far," said Billy. "I'm gonna miss You guys. I will try contacting You when we get to Aquitar." "Do You wanna say anything to the Planeteers, Cestro?" I asked Him. "No thank's." He said. "We're going to miss a lot of things. No Cable, no America Online, and no Z100!" said Billy. "I know. But their will be many thing to do their. We didn't have these things when we went to to Aruba with the Planeteers, but we found other activites to do. Don't worry, Billy. I'm sure You'll find somthing to do their. Get some rest." I said to Billy. "Okay, Eddie." Said Billy, smiling. For the next two hours, Billy tried to fall asleep on the ship but it was too noisy. So all we could do is look outside the window, but it was dark. After All, we were in space. I came up with another question to ask Cestro. I asked, "What are Yo u gonna do with the Earth money we gave You, it's not worth anything on Your Planet." "We have place for converting Your cash into our cash. I'll show You when we get their," said Cestro. I looked on My watch and it was already 12:30 A.M. Only a half hour left. "Prepare for landing," Said Cestro. We looked out the window and we were hovering high above the sea. "Here, put on these. Since You Earthlings can't breathe underwater, You'll breathe through these suits." Said Cestro, giving us diving suits. We were going to land underwater. We put on the diving suits. Strangely, these suits had unlimited air supply. We could keep them on for as long as we need to stay underwater. Finally, the ship's door opened and it filled with water. We could sw im and see some places like onm Earth such as Malls, Hotels, Houses, and Buildings. But everything was underwater. They had TVs like we did. "We can't sleep in these suits!" I said. "Aren't their places to stay on land?" "Yes, follow Me," said Cestro. We followed Him to a pipe, sort of like one on Super Mario Bros. It goes up. We climbed through the pipe and suddenly, we were able to hop out of the water. Eventually, we were on land. It was dark, but even on Aquitar, there were living things t hat could not survive underwater, so they settled in Houses on land. We needed a place to stay and sleep. Cestro guided us to a hotel that was on land. Cestro checked us in to the Aquitar Inn Hotel and then He took us to a room. "Look, this room has a bed, a dresser ... and a TV! We could watch TV!" said Billy. "Yes, but the channels are not the same as the ones You watch on Earth." Said Cestro. "Ok, let's see what's on." I said, turning on the TV. One channel was airing a movie, another a cartoon, other channels had the news and weather. So their actually was Cable TV on Aquitar but, the channels weren't the same. They had channels like Movie Box Office, Aquitar News Network, The Dizzy Channel and Shoetime. And they showed movies we never heard of like Snappy Happy, and Nickey Node Club. "I gotta go, but I'll see You tomorrow." Said Cestro. "Ok, thank's for a good room. What time is it?" I said. "You're welcome, and it's 3:36 A.M." Replied Cestro. I had to set My watch to Aquitar Time. I set it 2 hours Ahead. Me and Billy each had our own bed to sleep on. We both watched some TV before going to sleep. The next day, we woke up and had breakfast. We couldn't eat out, because we didn't have any Aquitar Money to pay. So we took out our cerial and ate it without milk. At 11:00 A.M, we turned on the TV when we heard somone knocking on our door. "Who is it?" I asked. "It's Me, Cestro." He replied. I opened the door and He came in. Immediatly, Cestro pointed to the TV. We saw people exactly who were exactly like us on some show. "You see, You are on TV." Said Cestro. "You're right, what show is that?" I asked. "Happy Days." He replied. "We have that show on Earth. We saw You on a show named Power Magic." I said. "Hey, let's take a picture of You, Cestro." Suggested Billy. "Okay, go ahead." Said Cestro. I took out My Polaroid camera and I took a picture. Instantly, the picture of cestro developed. Then Billy took a picture of Me and Cestro, and I took a picture of Cesro and Billy. Now, all three of us wanted to be in the picture, but who was goni g to take the picture? No problem, Billy took out His camera. His camera was able to take picture by itself, but it wasn't Polaroid We all stepped into the picture, smiling, and the camera took the picture. Unfortunately, we had to wait and take it to be developed back home on Earth. "Did You sleep well?" Asked Cestro. "Yes, we did." I said. "Okay, what do You wanna do today? I can take You anywhere You wish." Said Cesto. "Let's go to someplace, like a mall." Said Billy. "Okay, put on Your diving suits, we're going underwater. I'll wait outside. We will be going to a place we call a buying center." Said Cestro. After we were finished, we locked the room and went with Cestro. He took through the pipe which we come. We were back underwater. "How are we gonna take pictures underwater?" I asked Cestro. "They have waterproof cameras at what we call "the mall". Oh, and I forgot to show You how we convert forign currency into our currency. Their is a place at our buying center. He went a store in the mall and exchanged out Money for Aquitar Money. Me and Billy wondered how anyone eats underwater. They have their own special food. We spent 5 hours at the mall. At 7:00 P.M, Cestro took us back to the hotel room. "I'll see You tomorrow," Said Cestro. "You too," I said. We changed into our clothes and went to see what places their were to go on land. Their were only resedential zones, and very few stores to go shopping, but they were closed. By 7:30 P.M we went back to our hotel room. Once we were in the room, Billy turned on the TV to see what was on. He found a game show. "Look, Eddie. I found a game show for us to watch." Said Billy. "Do You know what it's called?" I asked. "No. I'll find out." Said Billy. When the commercials came on, Billy found out the show was called But Who's Counting. As we watched, we had tuna fish sandwiches for dinner. At about 8:10 P.M, after the show was over, I heard My Wrist Communicator Watch beep. It was hard to belie ve that even though we were far from Earth, Professor Hart could still contact us, and He could hear his voice was crystal clear. "Hi, Eddie. How are You doing?" Asked Professor Hart. "I'm fine. Today, we went their buying center. It's their version of a mall, it's got shops, homes, and buildings that are underwater. Their were places to stay on land. To access the places underwater, we had to put on diving suits." I told the Professor. "Where is Cestro?" Asked Professor Hart? "I don't know. He left us in our hotel room, which is on land." I Said. "How is Billy?" Asked the Professor. "Let Him tell You." I said. Professor Hart then switched to Billy's Wrist Communicator. "How are You doing, Billy" Asked Professor Hart. "Everything is fine. We enjoying our vacation." Said Billy. "Okay, I'll keep in touch." Said Professor Hart. Professor Hart hung up. We watched some more TV. At about 9:00 P.M, the Planeteers came on the TV Screen. They were able to see us from Planeteer Island and we were able to see them on our TV screen. "How did You get to contact us?" I asked them. "Using Planetvision," Said Wheeler. "So, how are You doing up their?" "We're doing just fine. We're coming back tomorrow. Billy just can't wait." I said. "We miss You and we'll see You tomorrow." Said Kwame. Then He and the rest of the Planeteers waived goodbye. The TV screen returned to showing regular programming. We watched some more TV then I turned it off and went to sleep The next morning, we watched Happy Days, the show that has us on it. At 11:05 A.M, we decided to go for a walk, so I wrote a note for Cestro in case He came to our room to take us somwhere The note said: Cestro, we went for a walk and we will be back at 12:15 P.M. See You then. :-) We looked around, then Billy asked Me, "How will we return to earth?" "The same way we came to Aquitar." I said. "You're right, Eddie. Cestro brought us here, He will have to take us back." Said Billy. As we walked, we saw a place that looked all too familiar -- Klubba's Kiosk! "Step up here! If You wanna goto a place called Earth, You're gonna have to pay Me $150 in Aquitar Money!" Said Klubba. "We don't have that kind of money. How about You let us through and we'll pay You later." Said Billy. "You must pay Me now, otherwise You can't cross." Said Klubba. "You should know better, Billy, that Klubba won't let us go through if You don't have enough." I said. Billy started to cry, "But I wanna go home now, I miss being home." "Don't worry, Billy. I will make sure Cestro takes us home, or else He will have to pay us back. Then we will pay Klubba to get back to Earth. Their is no way we are living on this planet." I said. "Let's go back to our hotel room and ask Him when He will take us back, okay?" Asked Billy. "Okay, let's go." I said. Me and Billy went back to the room to wait for Cestro. It was 11:58 A.M by the time we got to the room, so we had 15 minutes. I turned on the TV to see what was on. Nothing was on that we recognized, so we just watched whatever was on. 20 Minutes later, Cestro was knocking on our door. "Hi, Eddie and Billy. Wanna go back to our buying center today?" He asked. "Yes, but Billy wants to know when You will take us back to Earth." I said. "You're going back tomorrow, so this will be Your last day here. You should buy some souviniers to take back to earth." "I told You Cestro will take us back, Billy. No need to get all upset," I told Billy. We changed into our diving suits once more and went underwater to their buying center, for the last time. Cestro brought us a few souviniers, He got us a waterproof cameras for us to take picture of things we saw underwater. We asked Cestro if we can borrow His VCR so we can tape Happy Days and show our friends back on Earth the show that had us in it. The next morning, we packed our stuff up. At 11:00 A.M, we taped an episode of Happy Days, triple checked to make sure that we left nothing in the room, and then waited for Cestro. "Did You enjoy this vacation, Billy?" I asked. "It was fine, but it got to be boring. I can't wait to go back home and see the Planeteers. I'd rather stay on Earth." He said. A few minutes later, we heard Cestro knocking on our door. I gave Him His VCR the we borrowed to tape the show that had us in it. "Are you ready to go?" asked Cestro. "Yes we are." I said. We left the room and Cestro closed the door behind us. We checked out of the Aquitar Inn hotel, then Cestro took us back to His ship. Fortunately, the ship itself was high and dry on land. We stepped inside and the door slid shut. We could look outside. "Prepare for take off." Said Cestro. The ship took off. It sounded nothing like a plane taking off a runway. We were leaving Aquitar and going back to Earth. "So, how did You two like the trip?" Asked Cestro. "It was fine. But now I'm happy we're going home, and so is Billy. Are you going to stay on Earth?" I Asked. "I will stay for one day." Said Cestro. "You know, their was another way to go to Earth. Yesterday morning, we went for a walk and we saw a place called Klubba's Kiosk. He was guarding a warp that leads back to Earth. Are you familiar with this?" Asked Billy. "Yes, but He charges $150 in our currency. I'm taking You back for free because You payed Me already." Said Cestro. Since the trip back to Earth would take five hours, we tried to get some rest, but the ship was too noisy. So Me and Billy got out our walkmen and listened to our tapes. For the next few hours, everything went fine. But when we got closer and clos er to Earth, we were hit by a beam that stopped the ship in it's tracks. "We've been hit!" Said Cestro. "It must be Zordon! I know He's up to this!" I Said. "Who?" Asked Cestro. "Zordon, He is a head floating in a glass tube. He's been abducting people and making them into zombies." Said Billy. "Well, I'm not gonna let Zordon stop Me from getting to Earth. Hang on!" Said Cestro. We were moving slowly, but we picked up speed. At that time, I used My Wrist Communicator Watch to contact Professor Hart. "Come in Professor. Do You read Me?" I talked into the Communicator. "I'm right here." Said Professor Hart. "Zordon is up to no good, He tried to shoot us with some sort of beam." I Said. As I was talking to Professor Hart. Billy pointed to a screen on the ship's control panel. Zordon's face appeared. "Look, Eddie. Zordon!" Cried billy. "Heh heh heh heh heh! You're Mine now," Said Zordon. "No way, Mister! You can't just take us!" Said Cestro. He pushed a few buttons and Zordon came off the screen, then the ship's windows closed up. We were shielded from Zordon's attacks. After a minute, Professor Hart came on the screen. "I will bring You down safely near My lab." Said the Professor. We could feel the ship heading straight toward Earth. Cestro opened up the windows so we can see. We finally could see land. Then we landed slowly, right near the Lab. "Did You land us, Cestro?" Billy asked. "No, the ship seemed to have a mind of it's own. It must be that guy Professor Hart Who rescued us." He said. We were home finally. Me, Billy and Cestro entered the lab. Professor Hart greeted us with a warm welcome. "Welcome back to Earth, Eddie and Billy. It's nice to have You back home safe and sound." He said. "Thanks, Professor. This is one trip that we won't forget." Said Billy. "Let's contact the Planeteers so we can all celebrate our return." I said. I pressed a button on My Wrist Communicator Watch. "Come in, Kwame. We're back Here on Earth!" I said, happily. "Great, we're coming to the lab now." Said Kwame. "Cestro is going to stay with us on Earth for a night. Is it okay if He stays with You, Professor?" I asked. "No Problem," Said Professor Hart. A few minutes later. The Planeteers came in and gave us a hug. We, including Cestro, celebrated our first day back on Earth. We put on the radio and played a few songs. We sang and danced. Even Jeb was singing. "Wait a 'minute'! What time is it?" I asked. "It is now 3:30 P.M." Said Mate as He looked on His watch. My watch read 5:30 P.M. That was the time on Aquitar. I had to turn My clock back two hours to Earth Time. Then, Billy asked, "How about we all go see the movie, Twister?" "That's an excellent idea!" I said. "How about You, Kwame, Mate?" "Sure, let's go." Said Kwame. "Do You wanna come, Cestro?" I asked Him. "Why not? Sure, I'll come to see an Earth Movie." Said Cestro. "Okay, let's all goto the movies." I said. We, including Cestro, all hopped aboard the Geocruiser. We flew to the nearest movie theatre and payed to see the movie. Everybody loved it. It was great! Cestro was able to sleep at Professor Hart's Lab. And Me and Billy, well let' s say we just went Home. And You know what happened as soon as I got Home. I instantly woke up. This was all a dream. Billy was sleeping over with Me and we exchanged amazements as we both told the same thing about dreaming about going on a vacation to another planet in the universe. So theirfore, it was a "Dream Vacation". And this is one dream we shared and one we will never forget. The END. FLUTES FOR FREE When Me and Billy goto school, our favorite class is Junior Band in Music Class with Mr. Wheeler. Both Me and Billy play the flute. Well, in the dream, somthing strange happened. Our teacher had a good supply of flutes on His closet. We took our flutes out and started playing. At the end of the class, Mr. Wheeler said we can keep our flutes. That's exactly what we did. We took them home and got to keep them. And that was the end. ME (EDDIE) AND BILLY'S WILD RIDES. Me and Billy were planning to take the D Train to the city after school. So when the end of the day arrived, we walked to the train station, payed our fare, and stepped aboard the train. Everything went fine until we got to the tunnel. That's when the train started to pick up speed. To make this ride even more scarier, it was completely dark. "What's going on?" Billy asked Me. "Whatever it is we're not in Brooklyn anymore!" I said. We couln't see eachother, but we can both feel the train going about 100 miles per hour. Soon, we could a light at the end of the tunnel. But the light was coming from some amusement park. Also, the minute we exited the tunnel, the train turned into a roller coaster car. And we could see some of the tracks twisting and turning. "Look out, we're not on the train anymore. We're on a roller coaster!" I screamed. We could hear the people on the "train" scream. We were headed straight for another tunnel. In this tunnel, we could see a lot of ghosts booing and yelling. "When will this end?" Billy asked. "I don't know, but we're slowing down. The ride must be coming an end." I said. Finally, the train car stopped. When we got off, we could see that we were clearly in a different world. Their were rides everywhere. It was dark and their were a lot of lights. Billy followed Me around. We wanted to go see the haunted mansion. That was a lot of fun. We weren't scared. When we went in, we went threw a lot of dark halls and their were stars and all that. Their were moving floors and flashing rooms and we could hear the sound of a ghost chasing us. So we had to start running, or else that ghost will get us. "Hurry up, Billy! Run!" I yelled. But as we passed a certain point, the sound of the ghost stopped. So we slowed down a little bit. Finally we reached the end. "That was the scariest haunted mansion ever," Said Billy. "I know. This amusement park has the most thrilling rides. We're not even in Great Adventure. After walking around the amusement park, we wanted to leave. "Now how do we get out of here?" Asked billy. "I don't know, but we didn't get here via Funky's Flights. Maybe if I contact Professor Hart." I Said. I pressed a button on My Wrist Communicator Watch and contacted the Professor. "Professor, we in some stange amusement park. How do we get out?" I asked Him. "I will bring You to My lab. Please stand by." Said Professor Hart. In an instant, we were in Professor Hart's Lab. The Planeteers were waitng their for us after they heard that we disappeared. "That's one ride we will never forget," Said Billy. "You're right, Billy. I wonder, how did we end up in that crazy place?" I asked the Professor. "Zordon transported You their." Said the Professor. "Zordon! I should of known. " I said. "We'll, You guys are back safe and sound," Said Mate. It was 11:30 P.M. Me and Billy couldn't believe that we spent so much time at that place. So we went home and by the time I turned on the TV, I woke up. And that was the end. (STRANGELY) GOING IN CIRCLES This dream started one day when I was somehow locked in a room in My basement. I couldn't get out, but I could see a hole. I turned into a ball, just as Samus does to squeeze through narrow passages. When I looked to see where I was after squeezin g through the hole, I turned out to be in Zordon's Command Center. But in a few seconds, I got teleported back to the room I was locked in without Zordon noticing Me. I kept trying to get out, but kept getting teleported back into the room I was in before. After going back and fourth between Zordon's Command Center and the little room, Zordon noticed Me this time. I somehow ran out of the Command Center. As I ran, one of Zordon powerrangers was chasing Me. I got as far as I can to lose Him . The next day, I was taken back to Zordon's Command Center (Again!) Their, I did somthing I wouldn't wanna do in real life. I told Zordon I wanted to become a poer ranger. I could see Zordon staring at Me, as I tell Him, "Yes, I wanna join You." Instantly, I said to Myself, "What was I doing here?" as though I woke up from a nightmare. The Planeteers came to rescue Me from Zordon's Clutches. Kwame shook up the place long enough for us to escape using His power. "Earth." He said. We all ran out. As we ran away from the Command Center, we heard a voice. "Hear Me, Planeteers! You may have won this time but I will get You yet!" And that was the end. OF MEGAZORDS AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS It was daytime. I saw Myself walking through a corridor. I was face to face with Jason David Frank! In real life, I didn't like Him. I was walking near Kim who said, "The Megazord took more time to build than the White House. Well, I was forced to climb in to one of these machines. Once I was inside, I was trapped. I couldn't get out! Apparently, I was trapped in a zord! Suddenly, I felt tired and slept. I woke up and I seemed to be in a car. I was able see that I was going at 120 mile per hour. I was going to tell the driver, "We're going too fast!" But I was still in the zord machine and it was actiong like a car. It was taking Me through a series of winding paths with sharp curves. The zord I was riding in had a crazy mind of i ts own. After about 10 minute of going at 120 miles an hour, CRASH! The machine stopped and I was no longer trapped inside. Once I was outside. The zord disappeared. I seemed to be standing at the front of the lake. Suddenly, I could see a floating man appear over the lake. He went up into the air and starting throwing trumpets and trombones into the air, as though He has an endless supply. I tried hard to catch one, but I couldn't. I didn't know why He was giving us musical instruments . After a few minutes, He stopped and disappeared. The next day, He threw more trumpet and trombone for us to catch. This time, I caught a trumpet. Now, what to do with it. I could see the megazord on the rampage, so I blew through the trumpet and at the sound of it, the Megazord retreated. So that's why trhis guy was giving us these insturments. The Megazord doesn't like the sound of a trumpet or trombone. From that time on, I was able to keep the megzord away by blowing the trumpet. And that was the end.
