Dream Changling

Bobby lay dead in front of joe. He was wearing what had been his favorite pair of purple pants, but oddly, a white shirt - Bobby had hated the color white. Joe was

Reeeeeeeeely sad Bobby died in his dreams a lot, but this dream was sadder…

“So what do you think, Joe,” Susan said walking in from the kitchen.

  “Of what?” Asked joe, creepily.

“The dead guy on the floor, detective Bosch, do we have a motive?”

  “Reeeeeeeeely creepy and too gory for me,I promised I'd play over at mr bob’s weird business  with joe no# 2 on Sunday,today's Sunday,bye, weirdo!” Joe strode over to the open front door and out into the morning sunlight.

  Then he saw a monster and realized it was a dream and woke up in school,the teacher was occupied. Joe wiped the drool off his face and stole a glance at Bobby, who was sitting across the room, wearing his purple pants and a red shirt.

He looked at Alex's worksheet: “What is a dinosaur?”

Alex was just staring at the blank page, as if the answer might appear magically at any moment. Joe jumped outta his chair and ran out the door, school is done.

“Mister Bosch, excuse me, but where exactly, do you think you're going,” teacher Susan said, following him out the door.

“Away,” said joe.

Teacher Susan put her hands on her hips and frowned.

“ I can't figure out what a dinosaur is,” said joe.

“It's okay to ask for help, Joe.”

Joe walked back in and wrote: an old animal that is extinct.

Susan followed Joe back into the silent classroom and smiled when all the other students looked up at her. Alex finally had written:I dunno, teach me.

“Joe, it looks like some of the other students are struggling, can you read your answer aloud?”

“But, that's cheating!”said Joe. He stood up and waved his arms, like a baby bird trying to fly.

“My thing ..says umm a dinosaur is a old animal that's um ,extinct, for example,” said Joe.

“And what does it say about the murder of Bobby Danforth, detective?”

“ that was my dream ,” said Joe.
