Thank you Stuart McLean, for sharing your gift of storytelling!

I absolutely loved reading your posts this past week, the thought and care you put into developing your characters was incredible. The stories that you told were engaging and powerful. I would like us to continue this idea this week. This past week, we lost Stuart McLean, a wonderful Canadian, and storyteller.
For your homework this week, I’d like you to take the character you’ve written and record a story of something that happens to your character. Part of the joy of Stuart McLean’s stories were that he wrote about things that have happened to a lot of us, they were relatable. They were usually humorous and they were told in a great way. This is our chance to honour this amazing Canadian, with our own stories.
Record yourself on twisted wave reading a story that you’ve wrote. Save that story to your Google Drive and post the link in the comments.
I will work through the details on how to do this tomorrow when we look at the homework.
If you’re looking for inspiration from the man himself, this is a link to a great episode.

Notification: No one has taught me to use twisted wave, which sounds pretty amusing. I had tried multiple times on my computer, and I haven't still figured it out apparently. So, here's my story. I have to redo my story due to the lack of low amount of effort put in. Anyways, here's the post.

Later on, the loyal Vamprie’ gets splashed by some kind of certain mad scientist. The laboratory looked like an ultimate abandoned place. Vamprie’ then significantly turns into a new remarkable character “Pluto.” He is a magically blue ball, a blue ball who constantly studies about wannabe transforms/spells . There was also another beloved legend “Neptune” which is Pluto’s brother. (A better version of Neptune), I mean way better. Pluto has multiple moons on his orbit, which happened from the asteroid transform. Afterwards, it cooled down and the micro living bacteria's started spreading. A 100 million years later, an surprisingly asteroid attack happened, and some of the Pluto’s fragments are pulled away by a massacre 100 km by 100 km pulled away from the other side of the goldilocks zone. Years and years passed but now it transformed into an magic mirror bright-blue ball with a sparkly light smoke that comes outside the Pluto’s surroundings. Another 1000 years, from his academic, he knows how to cast all spells. He is now a retired academic wizard, and looks towards finding something very hidden. He then continues his adventure, and never stops.

“SLKWAWIF AWRTHKAJWKJTf” Speaking in an ancient language offen used by the bronze age king.
He then meets a person, that has green pupils and blond hair. He then says “hi” in a pleasant voice.
Pluto then replied back to him, and he realizes it’s Jackson from the first-series Crenshaw story. Jackson apparently has lost Crenshaw in the deepest ocean floor, and he realizes he will never find him.
“Riwawrgkawta” Said Pluto.
Jackson then translates it to google and it means “I am a imaginary friend*.”
“A imaginary friend who likes to play the Quidditch sport. You remind me of Harry Potter Pluto.” Said Jackson.
“I am not that stereotype. Through, Quidditch sounds like an old school sport for academic wizards who officially study at WizardCraft/Hogwarts.” Pluto speaking in a clear tone.
“So, you are a myth aren’t you ball-looking Earth?”
“If you believe so, otherwise I won’t answer that question because that is my personality.
Through, you should believe in the chronicles Jackson.”
“What’s a chronicle?”
“A gem, a valuable gem that has a healing generation just like that Prodigy math game.”
“Anyways, I have to go eat pancakes, by imaginary friend or Crenshaw if you don't mind?”
“Just simply call me an imaginary friend and plus I have a masterful spell.”

Afterwards, Jackson’s doesn’t realizes that Pluto now controls his brain. “I am part of you Jackson, Crenshaw is not a wannabe anymore. That old thing is over my best friend. Now, you will be part of my minion, and perhaps WE COULD RULE THE WHOLE COUNTRY!” - Pluto talking to Jackson while he’s asleep.
“Your rules are over, you are now a grateful wizard, an overpowering young in-training wizard. From now on, you have to say goodbye to your family, and never ever meet your family again. This is all new Jackson, Crenshaw is done, once again, this old thing is over. MUHAHAHAHA!”
