This is my first book.
Description: A story about a kid who had a father who is a really big explorer. One time on one of his explorations, his dad disappeared. The story begins here.
My name is Jeffery. One time my dad disappeared. I really don't like talking about it. This is my story.
When I was exploring a desert to the east of the town I lived in with Bob, Jason, and Benny. There was a big sphinx and far away we could see three pyramids.
I said, "We're almost there!"
We were walking along when all of a sudden I saw a scorpion. I drew my sword and stabbed it. It died.
When we got to the pyramids I remembered this was one of the places my dad was exploring when he disappeared. We looked around the pyramid. I found something out of the ordinary, a broken disc. I remembered that was all I was going to explore.
I went home. I had the disc fixed. I decided to go outside to sit on a chair and get tanned. I got to get my old tape recorder and play the broken disc that I fixed. I noticed it looked the same as the disc with my favorite song. I listened to it. I heard a man running and coughing. When it started my heart skipped a beat. I thought this might be when my dad disappeared. I decided to go check out my dad's old stuff.
I looked around and remembered his favorite book. I was going to pull the book out to look at it but when I pulled a trap door opened and I fell. I found an old map. It was a map of where my dad was going to explore. That is when I decided I was going to pack up, meet my friends and go explore.
We went past the pyramids and through the desert until we hit a forest. There was a sign on the side of the road that said "Death Forest". And so we went through and a cold wind went down my spine. We were walking through the forest when we heard a screech. A big giant mechanical spider jumped on Bob but it fell on Bob's spear. It fell to the ground screaming and rolling on the ground. I jumped at it and stabbed it over and over until it died. After that we continued through.
It was starting to become night and we barely got out of the forest. We slept outside of the forest. In the morning I went to go wake up Bob but I saw a blood trail leading away from the forest. We followed the blood trail and we found Bob. He was dead.
I was very mad.
