I guess this isn't so much as story as a game. I wrote one sentence, my little brother Kyle wrote another sentence, and we tried to make a story.
This is more or less a disaster. For one thing these kind of games never make good stories. Secondly Kyle was 5 years younger than me, and couldn't really follow my lead on a lot of stuff. You'll note it takes a whole paragraph before we even get a plot going.
I think I was in 7th grade. Kyle must have been in second grade. Jessica was in Kindergarten. I wrote the normal looking sentences. Kyle did the all caps, and Jessica did the bold faced.
There was a second chapter as well originally, but it got lost. Probably just as well.
Once there was a dog named Giddo, AND HE WANTED A DOGGY BONE. So he went to his friend spike and asked for a doggy bone AND HIS FRIEND GAVE HIM ONE. Giddo then went home with his bone, but he met another dog who also wanted a bone AND THEY SPLIT THE BONE AND ATE IT. But when they found out they got a posionious bone and they both got sick AND THEY WENT BACK TO THEIR OWNERS. Giddo's owner took him to the vet to see what was wrong with him. THE VET COULDN'T FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. Giddo was still sick so his owner took him to another vet, BUT THIS VET ALSO COULDN'T FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. Giddo got very sick and had to stay in bed all day long. HIS OWNER TOOK VERY GOOD CARE OF HIM. Then one day Giddo went mad. HE FOUGHT WITH ALL THE OTHER DOGS. He even bit his owner. SO HIS OWNER BROUGHT GIDDO BACK TO THE PET SHOP. Giddo didn't like the pet store and he bit the pet store owner. THE PET STORE OWNER DECIDED TO GET RIDE OF GIDDO. He sent him to the vet to have him put to sleep, but on the way to the vet Giddo got out of his cage. THEN GIDDO BIT THE PET STORE OWNER and ran into the woods. Giddo ran into a tree and became unconscious AND HE HAD A DREAM. He dreamt that his owner missed him and that he would take good care of him. When he woke up he was no longer mad, he was all better. HE RAN BACK TO HIS OWNER'S HOUSE. Then Giddo scratched at the door of his house so his owner would let him in. But his owner had moved away. SO GIDDO WANTED TO FIND HIS OWNER. Giddo began looking around the neighborhood for his owner, but the dog pound truck came. The dog pound truck captured Giddo and brought him to the pound. Giddo had no liscence because the pet store owner had taken it away. GIDDO WAS BROUGHT TO THE POUND CAGES, WERE ALL THE OTHER DOGS WERE CRYING. Unless someone adopted Giddo by Friday, Giddo would be put to sleep. THEN THREE BOYS CAME TO ADOPT DOGS, ONE OF THEM WANTED GIDDO. Giddo’s new owner was very nice, but Giddo wanted to be with his old owner. THEN ONE DAY GIDDO’S OLD OWNER CAME TO VISIT THE BOY, NOT KNOWING THAT THE BOY HAD HIS OLD DOG. But Giddo didn’t see his old owner, because he was at the vet for a check-up. GIDDO’S OLD OWNER BEGAN TALKING ABOUT GIDDO. “I have a dog just like your old dog,” said the boy. “COME AGAIN TOMORROW AND I’LL SHOW YOU MY NEW DOG.”
But that night, as the man was driving home, he was in a serious car accident. BUT THE BOY SAW THE ACCIDENT SO HE WENT OUT TO HELP GIDDO’S OLD OWNER. As the boy was running into the street he slipped on a curb and fell on his back. PRETTY SOON AN AMBULANCE CAME TO TAKE THEM BOTH TO THE HOSPITAL. Because of the terrible accident, everyone forgot about Giddo and he stayed at the vet’s all night. THE BOY’S MOTHER PICKED GIDDO UP THE NEXT MORNING. The boy got out of the hospital the next day, but Giddo’s old owner stayed in the hospital for a long time. Pretty soon school started for the boy, and Giddo was lonely most of the day. GIDDO SPENT MOST OF THE TIME PLAYING IN THE BOY’S BED. The boy’s mother didn’t like that so she locked the boy’s door while the boy was away. GIDDO SCRATCHED AT THE BOY’S BEDROOM DOOR, TRYING TO GET IN. GIDDO MADE LOTS OF SCRATCHES AT THE BOY’S DOOR. THE BOY’S MOTHER SAW GIDDO AND PUT HIM OUT SIDE. It was raining outside, and Giddo got cold and wet. GIDDO SCRATCHED ON THE DOOR, BUT IT WAS NO USE. THE BOY’S MOTHER WOULD NOT LET HIM IN. Giddo ran away looking for a dry place to go. THE ONLY PLACE GIDDO COULD FIND WAS A TREE IN THE BOY’S YARD. Giddo caught pneumonia from being out in the rain so long. WHEN THE BOY CAME HOME FROM SCHOOL, GIDDO WAS VERY SICK. The boy’s mother took Giddo to the vet. THE VET GAVE GIDDO A CHECK-UP. The vet gave the boy and his mother some medicine to give to Giddo. Giddo was very sick for a while, but then after 6 months he became all better. ON NIGHT, while Giddo was sleeping, three robbers came into the house to rob it. THEY ALSO KIDNAPED THE BOY. The boy tried to get away. Giddo woke up AND HE SAW THEM KIDNAP THE BOY. Giddo jumped on one of the robbers, and knocked him down. THE ROBBER WAS KNOCKED OUT. One of the robbers ran off to their car, taking the boy with him. The other robber took a club and began to swing it at Giddo. THE ROBBER HIT GIDDO IN THE HEAD, AND GIDDO WAS KNOCKED OUT. The robber than ran and got a glass of water, and splashed it on the other robber’s face to wake him up AND THE OTHER ROBBER WOKE UP. When the boy’s mother woke up, she looked for the boy, BUT SHE COULD NOT FIND HIM. She also noticed that several of her valuable possessions had been stolen. SHE WAS VERY SAD. She called the police and told them to come over. THE POLICE WREE ABLE TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED. They began an immediate search for the kidnappers. FINALLY THEY FOUND THEM. Then they arrested the kidnappers and returned the boy to his mother. THE BOY’S MOTHER WAS REALLY HAPPY. Giddo was really happy too.
