WHATS UNDER YOUR BED PART 2

"Certainly, we will reserve a room for you!" I hung up the phone. Somehow I was going to have to make nine buttons in another eight hours!!! Wait that's immpossible. Maybe if I didn't sleep for one night, I would have more time to make money and I wouldn't have to pay for one night. I started to walk away from the payphone thinking on ideas for how to make money.

I walked along the streets looking for a way to get money. I spied a couple of trouble causing teens. The bad teenagers in the world above the bed paid me to do bad things to myself. Maybe these guys are the same. I walked up to one. "Hey, I will let you wedgie fourty times if you give me a button "

One of the teens smiled at me and said, "Wedgies are too easy I know a better deal! How about you put water on your face for TEN SECONDS!!! Then I will give you two buttons!" I was beggining to think that this was a prank, but then I realized if a dust bunny puts its head under a tap it would probably die. I nodded yes and I followed them to a tap. One of them threw a scrap of cardboard at the lint sink and it turned on. Immediatly there was a big hole in the lint wood. I put my head under the tap. Cold water split over my face and went down. I counted to ten and turned around. The teens were horrified! They threw two buttons at me and took off. Wow that was easy. I crossed the lint covered road when the traffic light was rainbowish.

I turned a corner and noticed a poster on a water hydrant. It read If you want a job to walk bouncy balls for two chocolate wrappers an hour, contact the Wilint family. 444-666-4362. I ran to the nearest payphone and put in two of my chocolate wrappers. I dialed 444-666-4362. Some husky voiced man picked up the phone and said, "Whatever you are selling, I'm not buying!"

"No I am not a marketer! I was interested in that job for a bouncy ball walker you put up."

"Oh, ok come to 4365 dusty ave. The third house on the left." I hung up and followed my brochure map to dusty ave. Then I counted three houses and knocked on the door of the third. A tall dust bunny looked down at me and said, "Are you that ball walker."

"Yes," I answered.

"Well here is my first ball. You walk him for an hour and come back here. Then you get Stripy. Walk him and come back. Then I'll give you Ad. Oh and the guy your holding now is Lop." I looked at Lop. He was egg shaped. I turned around and started to walk him. I walked for about three minutes when I saw a flyer on the ground. It read National ball racing competition. I looked at Lop. Then I looked back at the flyer. Winner receives SEVEN BUTTONS! Immediatly I knew I had to put Lop in that race. I gave Lop a big push and he was rolling pretty fast but sideways. I carried him to the town square. I spied a man in striped uniform.

"Hey!" I yelled, "Can I enter this competition?"

"Sure! just fill out this paperwork!" he answered. I ran to him and he handed me some papers and a pen. I filled it out and gave it back. "Now run to the starting line, the race is almost about to begin!" I rolled Lop to the starting line.

A guy standing in a tall stand said, "1,2,3 GO!!!" I pushed Lop as hard as I could. He was in last place! But then a miracle happened. Lop flew up when he hit a wad of paper. He rolled in the air until his head hit a street light. He plummeted downwards and hit one of the balls. The ball rolled off track and hit the ball next to it. That ball hit the ball next to it and the two balls on the left crashed into a checker tree. Lop rolled sideways and hit the ball next to it. The ball got angry and bounced up. The ball aimed to land on Lop's head but bounced off another streetlight and then flew backwards, all the way back to the start. By then Lop had crossed the finish line. "CONGRATULATIONS TO LOP!" The guy on the stand motioned for me to come up and join him. He gave me a plastic trophy with seven buttons in it.

The crowd roared with excitement. Some booed because they lost their bet. Then the crowd broke up and I climbed down from the stand. I picked up Lop and checked my watch. It said 3:00. What do you know I guess I will be staying in the hotel for three nights after all. I walked back to the Wilint family and gave them Lop. I also gave them the plastic trophy because it was Lop who won the race. I told Mr. Wilint that I don't need to walk his dogs anymore and he said farewell and I walked away.
