The Big ol' Red bike

Marshall woke up on a beautiful Tuesday morning. Nothing was particularly special on this day, not to his knowledge anyway. He went to school, and learned about plants. He wasn't too fond of plants, but then again, it was school, and he wasn't fond of school either.


After school, he finished his homework and went upstairs to browse the Internet. Several hours past and he looked at the clock.


"Hm",marshall thought," 6:15. I'd better get ready for that scout meeting."


The scout meeting was to be held at the local church at 6:30 pm, and Marshall knew that perfectly well, yet he still decided to show up almost an hour late. When he arrived, his friends Ryan, Nate and Cayden were all outside. Since Marshall rid his bike here, he decided to go mess with Ryan.


Ryan was going on some rant about something called the Mysterious Bush, some supernatural bush that was super intelligent, and could exist in any living plant.


"That's stupid",Marshall thought," I'm going to run it over with my big red bike and see what Ryan has to say then."


The second the bike touched the bush which Ryan claimed was the Mysterious Bush, he let out an ear splitting scream. Marshall had no idea what he had done. In his mind, running over a crappy bush was completely ok, but he had no idea, what he had truly done.


Marshall went home and went to bed. The next day he woke up, (it was a no school day) he went downstairs to get some OJ. His parents were watching the news.


"Hey Marshall, come look at this," his dad said," something crashed from space in farm country thousands of years ago, and they still haven't found what it was...Weird."

The years went by, and Marshall grew old. At 87, he moved to a old farm with his son, daughter in-law, and grandson. Strangely enough, Marshall still had his red bike. But as Marshall slept, the cows stirred uneasily. The bush around the cows was different. It wasn't just any bush, and the cows knew perfectly well. It was "mysteriously" different.
