THE TWO FOXES FIGHT

by Madelyn Mejia

Once upon a time there were two foxes that were friends and they played the same thing everyday. One was named Tim and the other was Timmy. One day Timmy said that he was tired of playing the same thing everyday. Timmy wants to play jump ropes, but Tim couldn't jump because his leg was broken. Tim liked playing the same games they played but they couldn't play any more games because Tim's leg was broken.

Mat and Jodi came over and they asked Tim and Timmy if they wanted to play but then Tim said he couldn't. Timmy went and played and Tim got mad that his leg was broken. When Mat and Jodi went home Tim said, "That is not fair that you get to play and I don't." Timmy said, "It is not my fault that you have a broken leg." Timmy thought that Tim could stay in bed and not get hurt. Timmy wanted to take Tim to Jodi and Mat's house to play monopoly and Tim agreed.

When Tim got to Jodi and Mat's house he told them that he wanted to play the games that they play. Tim thought he would be left out, but he just had a broken leg. Monopoly was fine for now, but soon he would be outside jumping ropes.
