My Metamorphosis story

 Yet another thing we did for writing this week was to imagine that we had undergone metamorphosis. 

We had to pretend we had woken up one morning and discovered we had changed. It would be like going to sleep as a caterpillar and waking up as a butterfly. We had to write about what our new body was like and what we could do. I chose to : write about me to Metamorphosis into an evil giant scorpion.

Here is my work:

  The evil scorpion human.

One thundery day I was doing an experiment in my lab with a scorpion cause I am a scientist. I put the wrong thing in it by accident and it blew up.  I got blasted all the way across the lab and was knocked unconscious. A few hours later I woke up feeling weird. As I walked into the bathroom I caught sight of myself in the mirror. I was a  horrifying sight!  I  was part scorpion and part human. I thought about it for a second and said to myself, ” Hey, this is really cool because now  I can paralyze people with my scorpion tail and I couldn't do that before!”.

I went to try it on my worst enemy Jada, another scientist who had been trying to destroy my science lab for three years.  I paralyzed her with my poisonous tail and I was so happy as I locked her in her basement.

The next day I went to the mayor of my town and paralyzed him too and locked him in his basement along with all of his guards who had tried to fight me. Then on the town speaker I proclaimed, “I am the new mayor of this town and whoever disobeys me will be locked up in my basement. Whoever tries to leave will be locked up too unless you leave in the next 24 hours!”

7 years later…

I wanted more space in my basement because it was too small so I hired some builders to build me another basement. They built me a nice, big one. I was so happy about it that I let them move away to another town only if they told no one about this town. They agreed quickly. 

I loved ruling the town but I still wanted more so I got builders to build me my very own tower. Year after year though,  I got more and more lonely so I ordered some new scorpions. In one week, they had arrived at my house  in jars and I started eating them. I thought they were so yummy.

 The next day, I was bored so I put 30 of them in the basement with the people that had disobeyed me. Then I sat back and listened. In no time at all I heard loud screaming.  I  laughed evilly. “ I am the most evilest scorpion person ever to walk this Earth!” I said to myself.
