2. Elyse

9. How Hills Came To Be By: Elyse Kratchman Bump! Thud! “ What was that!’’ Zeus said “I felt that too” Hermes said in confusion. Zeus looked out the window and saw hills forming in the distance. At this point Zeus was bewildered how was he the only one feeling this thud?! What could be making these thuds on a beautiful day like this? Is it a Cyclopes walking a mini earthquake? Well to find that out he sent Hermes the messenger god out to scan mount “O” to see what it was. Hermes glided through the sky looking for something that could be making that thud Zeus talked about. As Hermes glided through the air he realized that Zeus wasn’t the only one seeing hills he saw them too. Spring!!! A black little bug flew out of the ground! “What was that!” exclaimed Hermes “ “Don’t say it was A…. it was it’s the jumps” Hermes could not wait to tell Zeus. The jumps are little bugs that come once every 2 years, but they hadn’t come in 10 Hermes flew back to Zeus and told him the news. Zeus stomped out looking for them he didn’t feel anything for a while so he supposed they where gone! “At last” Zeus was interrupted by a thud! He saw another hill form. Zeus got his hand and pow! A lightning bolt hit the ground where the last hill was going be. A sign of relief fell out of them.
