The Chosen Phew
I, Bob the chicken nugget, lives in chicken nugget world. Every 5 years 100 chicken nuggets get to stay here while the rest go in boxes to get eaten. I was born about a month after the chicken nuggets got sent to the boxes. My mama and papa say if your really smart and you believe your one of the 100 chosen then you will be. I believe them because you know, they are my parents. I am all excited because I know I will get chosen! I am really smart, ace almost all my tests and I believe I will be chosen!
I decided to make a notebook, full of everything I will do when I get chosen! I spent around 3 years writing 5 pages a day. Let’s just say, I had a lot of notebooks. I also spent about four months reading book after book about the chosen afterlife! I could not wait!
"Mama, Papa! It’s in a week! I’m so excited!" I shouted as loud as I could. "Keep your nugget quite!" Jimmy, our neighbor yelled. "Sorry" mama called back.
It was in just two days. So tonight we celebrated! It included, dancing, ice-cream, music and singing. We invited all of our neighbors, my mama said it was because I was gonna get chosen.
After everyone went home we cleaned up, dusting, moping, scrubbing and more. "Papa, why do we have to clean. Once I get chosen we all get to move to a different town!" Oh, I forgot to tell you! Once you already been chosen your chosen forever. Chicken nuggets only live about 45 years though. My papa replied "We have to keep this house nice until then." I smiled, dusting again.
Finally, what I have been waiting for my whole life! The chicken nugget 100 day! I dressed in my nicest outfit I had, which included a long sleeve blue shirt with a tie that had baby chickens on it and pants. After I got dressed a packed my tiny suitcase with my notebooks, favorite stuffed animals that I can’t sleep without and my favorite blanket.
Once we got there I looked around, amazed by the sight. I huge stage was there! I looked to my right and there it was! The train of the 100! It was a train that took the chosen ones to the new town. I got so excited that I bounced up and down numerous times. My mama and papa looked at me in my eyes once a stopped. "Whatever happens I love you." They said. "You don’t need to say that now! You said I’m gonna get chosen and I believe I will! I wonder what the inside of the train looks like. It’s a long ride right? So does that mean there will be snacks? Ice cream? Im so excited!" I started to bounce up and down again.
Mama and papa held my hand as it started.
The king came out the god! It was Mr. Chicken Tender! "Now please make some noise for Mr. Chicken Tender!" A speaker shouted. Everyone clapped and yelled so loud I could not even here myself. It was the best thing I have ever been to in my life! Mr. Chicken Tender spoke. "Thank you, thank you. Now we all have come to this day to see who will be the chosen ones!" I bolted my arm up, only shooting it back down when I noticed no one else put there’s up.
He read off names, I listened as I did not here mine yet. Everyone who was called yelled and ran to the train with there belonging.
Mr. Chicken Tender said "Time to pick the last fifty out of the hat!" Everyone cheered except me. I was confused. My mama and papa said they choose if you believe, they never said it was random!
I started to cry as he called off the last fifty. He then said "If you got chosen before get to the train and show your chosen pass." I did not say anything "I love you so much." They said. They hugged me and left, crying. I remained silent, my eyes were stuck on the screen. I watched to see if there was a mistake and my name would appear up there.
I ran after the train when it left, only getting stopped.
A year later, yes I am still alive. See, I got ate but they lied. It’s a new world in here! Party all day and night as I would call it!
