Muffins The Moose By Luke

“Ahhh,” I said. I was out camping with my friend’s family and my dad and brother. I was having the best day. It was sunny with a light breeze and I just finished the most delicious lunch ever. Then when I thought the day couldn’t get any better my dad spotted a moose. “Shhh,” he said. “Look at that huge moose.”

“Cool,” everyone said.

“Let’s get closer for a better picture,” said my dad. We all got a good picture except for my dad and since he was the one that saw it he had to get a good picture. Then the moose turned and everyone ran back to the camp. My dad and I were the only ones who didn’t. The moose darted deeper into the forest and my dad and I followed.

Slowly I trailed behind. I was far behind my dad but my dad was right by the moose and got a good picture but the flash scared the moose and it ran. Sadily the moose didn’t run into the forest, it ran at me! I was panicking I couldn’t move and I was scared. I didn’t know what to do I hadn’t ever needed to fight a charging moose. I was panting although I hadn’t moved. Scared. Panting. Alone. There I was all by myself, a young, weak boy with a huge moose charging toward me. I knew I was dead, but I didn’t know how to accept that. Everything around me was moving slower than ever. It was then I realized I was in my last living moments. This moose was going to be the cause of my death. I closed my eyes waiting to me pummeled by the moose, It felt like it was taking hours yet the moose hadn’t hit me, and although it hadn’t hit I already felt the pain. But instead of being killed I felt a gust of air and I opened my eyes and I saw that the moose turned. I was alive! My dad rushed over and said, “Luke! Are you okay?”

“Yes,” I said. My dad and I went back to the camp and told everyone what had happened. Everyone was happy I was okay and we even named the moose. Muffins. Muffins The Moose. In the end I think that this was good for me because now I am not afraid of mooses. So yes, this was good for me.

Later that night when I was in my warm tent I thought about the moose that almost killed me. It could have easily killed me but it was it’s decision not to. And know that I was thinking about it I knew that the moose didn’t try hurt or scare me also it wasn’t going to kill me. I’m very happy it didn’t.
