Discovery of Chocolate

Aztec people think gods gave chocolate to them but really they just grow on trees so Aztecs can get it for themselves. Aztec people spell chocolate, xhocolate. The x is sounds like a c. One day there were two Aztec people that were sent from the gods. A large fire was built then one god said to one of the men to jump in the fire and without hesitation he jumped in. Then the other man jumped in. One day there were two suns so it made it so hot.  one of the suns turned into the moon so it won't be that hot now. After that in 1500AD a King was watching his tribe from omens. Omens are when something bad is going to happen. So he watched. until a year later but then the king was captured by Spanish people. Almost all parts of America were affected by the incident. So they let Aztec people build for them as they were great Engineers and builders.

Write like Pau

Walking all the way to my dad's lab, I'd cross the road over the bridge and take the bus to the lab.
When I arrived at the lab my dad now that I will arrive at 7:31 he told me to come fast then I saw
a big MACHINE!! Called a time machine I ran to look over . It was shiny with the chair in the middle.
Dad told me to stay behind the red line but I didn't.


I looked behind and in front of the machine I asked dad if I could go in . but he said ‘’ no son it's too
dangerous’’ I had the grumpiest face ever. Then when he wasn't looking I ran in the Machine and turned
it on and went to a Different I'm world..


`
When he saw a different world he started to cry. Then I heard some more crying. I looked behind me and
saw my dad's WORKERS!!! I ran over to see them. I asked them what happened. They said that my dad
was testing if the time machine works.but they end up staying in the middle of nowhere  . I was so MAD
that I pushed a rock and it broke. They told me that if we get a chip that was so powerful. And if we can
get it. We can go back home . So we started my journey to the monten it took. days and nights days and n
ight. When we arrived I grabbed the chip and it teleported home. I gave my dad a beating. 


The end
