I did that, but the ancient door was stuck. I saw that the door was slightly open so I put my hand on the old rusty handle and pushed it as hard as I could. “Ughhh” I grunted. As I the door was half way open, I heard my buddy Tom yelling, “AHHH!'' and I let go of the door and I turned around. “A-a-a…. spider!” Tom screamed. I stood there angrily. “You made me let go of the door for a spider?!” “Um I think so” he said as he looked down at the ground. I didn't respond. I opened the door looking back at Tom's eyes, giving him the angry look.

I fell off and landed on my pet dragon’s bed. I forgot which room is my history room so I tried opening all of the 175 doors. “Hey watch, where is the history room?” I asked. A robotic sounding voice answered, “The history room is on the second floor. Room 1.” I thought that was my parents room. As I walked down the halls with soft steps in shame of myself, I saw a dark old room.

As rocks were falling all over my body, I saw through a little hole that the falling rocks embedded into the slime monster. I tried digging my way out before the spiky rocks hit me. I finally escaped. There was a lot of rock dust on my face. I grabbed a big jar and put its slime in there. When I finished, my stomach was rumbling. “I'm so hungry!” The only thing I have is a jar of slime. “Should I eat it? It must taste like jello.” I tried a piece, “Eww what is wrong with me?!” I jumped up and stuck to the vent like spider-man!

I rubbed the dust off and there were words that I couldn't understand so I entered them into&nbsp;my watch to translate. Before I could do that, I needed to know what the language is. We're in Cairo, I remember in history we were naming all the languages and the Egyptian language is  Standard Arabic. The message said to point the plate at the light and then at the symbol that looks like two arms.

I looked down and there was a deep hole with lava at bottom that they used for incinerating garbage. “Am I next?” He let go. As I fell through air, the hot air from the machine was blowing my body and melting my armor. I was slowly losing consciousness. My eyes were shutting on and off and I began to lose my vision. I saw glowing red. It smelled like a failed thanksgiving dinner. I was nearly at the bottom of the lava hole. I closed my eyes and was too scared to open them again. I felt like I landed on something. I opened my eyes...

I was squeezing my palms when I turned it into T.R.T. I kept saying please, please in my head. As he checked it my gut was telling me it was all wrong.

I fell backwards through an underground subway station and landed on the tracks shattering them. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a train started coming. I saw a hand trying to grab me and pull me up on the platform. My armour was too heavy and he couldn’t pull me up. The train was getting closer. It was as loud as a jet plane and I could feel the ground rumbling. I had an idea! I activated invisible on my toolistic-i-watch. The train passed straight through me!

I turned around and saw my DRAGON. My dragon had caught me! He flew me up out of the hole and towards the villain. I jumped off and landed on the villain’s back. I punched him with my metal arm and he 

grabbed me like a doll and threw me against the floor. Back and forth, He repeated that same move five times and then I finally tased him with electricity from armour. He stopped for one second and...

I always wondered what was in there. I finally went into the history room on the second floor of my castle near my kitchen.&nbsp;I had to work on history with T.R.T.&nbsp;(Teacher Robot Tech). I hoped he didn’t notice. I asked my mom if I could go to a public school. She said no cause she will be worried and she said I live in a castle and that I'm way too famous. She always says, “You have a robot teacher T.R.T."

They’re probably making a portal right now. We have to go there. Grab my hand and hold tight. Ok?” To make us go really fast, I grabbed my jetpack and booster. I flew off and got there in like 10 minutes! We walked into an Egyptian pyramid. “This is weird, I have never seen anything like this.” I found a secret door and a plate that was dusty.

&nbsp;I quickly ran to the corner and&nbsp;said, “Shoot the electric fishing net. The target is the villain. Shoot now!” The villain got hit and collapsed. “Tom are you ok?” I took the tape off of his mouth and he was

breathing heavily. “Thanks for saving me!” As I was thinking to myself,&nbsp;I'm a hero... I failed to hear the large footsteps coming my way, “WATCH OUT!!!” my buddy said at the last second. I got tackled through the wall

and grabbed by the neck. I couldn't say anything. I could only mumble.

I heard a flop sound and I felt it again... the sticky slime. This time, a lot went on me! I looked like that blob from Hotel Transylvania. Whenever I tried to move, I heard a slurp noise. Finally, I got all the slime all off by turning on the heater on my armour. “Where did that slime come from? I raised my head to look at the vent again, but this time there was a SLIME MONSTER!!! It guards the hideout. It grabbed my skull and threw me across the room!

I grabbed his body but I had forgotten to turn off my Sticky 3000 so when I tried taking my hands off the slime monster but I couldn’t. I was stuck to him! I lifted the monster above my head and threw it on the ground and he broke in half. Surprisingly, he healed himself and was put back together. I stuck my hands on his face. I was so angry that my hands had grown as big as a rock and a purple sparkle glowed around my fist,&nbsp;bright as a star. Both of our fists hit each other and produced an explosion...

“Ok.” I activated my Blaster 3000 on my watch and shot a laser beam. It melted through the stop sign and took off the letters so it said top. “Wow that’s cool! Ok let me help you,” the boy said. “Ok I need you to follow me like I’m Batman and you’re the Robin. “Ok wait what?!” the kid said, sounding unimpressed. I quickly responded “....just don’t say anything. We have a time limit here buddy, ok? Focus.”&nbsp;

T.RT said, “Scanning sheet. You have completed the test. Your score is 100%” I shouted out “YES!” T.R.T said, “Wait here I will get you your prize." “Ok,” and I waited. T.R.T finally came with my prize. He gave me a shiny book that was as bright as the sun.

I was so interested in the book that all I heard T.R.T. say was, “Bla bla bla bla…” I opened the book and it was bright as a star. It blinded me and I dropped the book. A voice said, “This is an emergency!!! Opening an emergency portal.” I fell through the portal. It felt like there was an earthquake in my head and belly. As I fell through, my toolistic-i-watch was triggered and armour covered my whole body to protect me.

I flew back to save my friend. I was worried if he was hurt. I hurried and looked everywhere. He was hiding behind a pile of rocks. “Are you ok?” “Yes!” said my buddy. “I found the book” I said. “Wow... great” he said sarcastically. Tom was starting to feel sad as he was realizing his new friend was going to be leaving.&nbsp; “Why do you have to leave?” said my buddy&nbsp; “I need to see my family. Here is a watch."

I thought it was gonna be a normal day. Little did I know it  would be more like a wild adventure. A magical book takes me to a new dimension. How will I get back home?

According to the GPS tracker on my i-Watch, our first destination is the Egyptian Triangle Pyramid. Luckily, the book had a tracking device which we can follow on my watch. Like all royalty, his castle was heavily guarded against villains. Now that he had time travelled, he had left himself vulnerable with no guards. I considered the possibility that the villains from my world might follow me to this new dimension.

This is amazing! I quietly crawled through the vent to keep looking for Tom. I arrived at another room and saw Tom tied to a chair. I opened the vent where I was climbing on the ceiling and my Sticky 3000 said “low power energy cells.” “uh oh!” Right as the villains left the room, I lost my ability to stick to the walls. I fell off and hit the floor with a BANG! One of the villains heard and came back through the door to check it out. The others were too far ahead to hear.

He told me if I got 100% on the test he would get me a special gift. As I was studying the history of the 20th century, I was trying so hard I was sweating and biting the tip of my pencil. When the test was finished, I wasn't so sure how I'd done.

I woke up at 6:30am, from my smell-i-vision alarm playing the Spiderman theme song. I pressed snooze, I was so tired I rolled up like a taco in my blanket and fell off my bed. I got up and I dragged my lazy self to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Then, I took a cold shower so the water could go on my face and make me half awake. I rushed to put my clothes on. Man, I was so late for school! I grabbed my safety Toolistic-i-Watch&nbsp;and slid down the railing of the stairs.

I finally opened it and walked through nervously. I turned around and Tom was gone! I worried that the villains got him. I looked everywhere and then I felt slime drop from above. When I looked up I saw that the vent was covered with green slime. “Turn on Sticky 3000! Charging up to max stickiness!” I could stick to waIls with it. I need it to go through the vent and to save my friend. I have to be careful because it's really sticky at max power and it could rip someone's face off!!

I had a weird vibrating sensation. The boy who tried to help me just stood there in shock! After a few awkward long minutes, the boy said “Hi, I’m Tom” and I responded with “Hi! I need your help looking for this portal around here.” “Nice joke,” he said. “I’m Serious!” “Ok, I will play along,” the kid said.“No, really... I’m from a different dimension,” I said. "Prove it!" he said.

It will allow you to contact me and teleport to me.”&nbsp; “Thank you”&nbsp; “I guess this is the end.”&nbsp; “Yeah but not really... we have the watches.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

“I have a feeling there will be many more adventures!”&nbsp;

I teleported to my world and ever since then I was the happiest I could ever be.
