3rd-5th grade Easter story winners
Once upon a time there was a girl named Emma who was a poor girl.She was an only child. It was almost Easter and she is hoping something great would happen so her family was not poor anymore. She was really hoping that the Easter bunny would give her something good. Like a golden egg.
As it was Easter, Emma had almost given up on finding what she needed. But she had one more place she was going to try to look, the woods.
She went into the woods the next day. After a long time of searching she finally found the golden egg. She knew she would want to savor the moment. She went over to the egg and her fingers were an inch away from the egg. She moved her fingers slowly towards the egg. She finally touched it. Then she was suddenly in a place she did not recognize. There she saw a sign that said Easter Island.
Emma was amazed. She never knew she could have such luck! Emma then started wandering around and soon she saw a sign that said,”Easter Palace->.Emma started off in that direction and soon arrived.There were tons of the Easter Bunny’s helpers all over the palace but no sign of the Easter Bunny himself. So Emma decided to find out on her own.
Emma went to the closest bunny she could and asked,”What happened to the Easter Bunny? Where did he go?”
The bunny said, “ No one has any idea where he is. We hope we will find him in time for Easter.”’I do too,” replied Emma.”I would love to help if you need it.”
Then the bunny said “Thank you.” “You’re Welcome,” replied Emma. He said, “If you find him, the Easter Palace will give you a surprise.”
Emma said, “ What will it be?”
The bunny said, “I know what you want and I will give it to you.” “Is it so that my family will be rich?” asked Emma. “You’ll see.” the bunny answered.
Emma said, “ I will start right away.” In about 5 seconds she was out of the palace.
Where should I start first, Emma wondered. She knew the perfect place. Carrot Garden. Carrot Garden was a story back where she lived. Legend has it that Carrot Garden holds all the secrets to the Easter bunny’s whereabouts. It also holds all the carrots ever in the world. Emma just hoped beyond hope that it was not just a legend that it was real. She also hoped if it was real that it actually has where the Easter bunny is.
Emma was getting worried because she had been looking for an hour to find the Carrot Garden. She was starting to think Carrot Garden was not real. But just then she came to a sign that said WELCOME TO CARROT GARDEN WHERE YOU WILL FIND A STOCK OF A LIFETIME OF CARROTS. Emma was so relieved to see the Carrot Garden. Emma went in it right away. According to the legend the Easter bunny’s whereabouts are in the exact middle of the garden. Emma realized the garden was huge it probably had to be at least 6 miles long. So she knew it would take her a really long time to reach the middle of the garden. But from where she was standing it looked liked if she kept walking straight she would eventually reach the middle of the garden. So she started walking straight for a long time. Finally she reached the middle of the garden. She found a small tv on the ground that had the Easter bunny on it. Emma saw the Easter bunny but could not tell where he was. Emma looked again and it looked like he was up high on a white platform. Emma looked around and the only thing she saw that was high and had a platform was the Easter palace. OH MY GOSH, Emma thought. Why was the Easter Bunny on top of Easter palace. Emma looked at the Easter bunny again. It looked liked… Emma could not quite tell like… HE WAS EVIL. Emma was sure that’s what it looked like. She no idea why the Easter bunny was looking evil.
Emma went out of the Carrot Garden really quickly. But it was hard because it was three miles to get out. She tried to go as quickly as she could and by the time she got out of the Carrot Garden she went quickly to the Easter palace. Emma thought it would be hard to get the Easter Bunny normal again.
Emma ran so fast for two miles that on the third mile she collapsed on the carrot tree closest to her and fainted. When Emma woke up the Easter Bunny was only about half a mile of from her so Emma took off running again. When she got to the Easter Palace she did not know how to get up to the top of Easter Palace. What should I do? Emma thought. I guess I will go in through the exit door when a bunny said, “Hey! No going through the exit door unless there is a fire or earthquake or an emergency!”Emma did not pay attention though and ran right past him. Then Emma looked up at the top and the bunny was not there. She decided to look somewhere else.
Soon the bunny called “security!”Emma knew she was going to be outrun so she hid.The security guards ran right past her. Phew! Emma thought.But how am I going to get out?There are bunnies all over the Palace looking for me!
Then an idea popped into her head.I know!I can just wait until all the bunnies leave and then I can sneak out.If the doors are locked, then I can just go on top of the Easter Palace and climb my way down.Emma tried not to think about that plan though, because it would be very dangerous and she could (probably not but still) die.
When all the bunnies left, Emma tried the door and it was open.Wow am I lucky!Emma thought.Then she slipped out the door and thought about where next she would go.
Oh!I know she thought!In the children’s books, she knew the child would always fall into the bad person’s hands.So, where do I start?She thought.Probably at the carrot creek, because in fairy tales they always are on the other side of carrot creek.
Emma calculated the route, and figured out it would take her three hours to get there.
When Emma arrived at Carrot Creek, she immediately saw the witches.Emma started to run as fast as she could and got there.
When Emma arrived, she saw no sign of the Easter Bunny.Oh no!What have I gotten myself into?Emma thought.First though I need to check all the rooms of the house.Hopefully no one is inside this house. She checked all the rooms, by her last room one bunny was in the house but he was sleeping.Oh! How will a carry a full grown bunny (the Easter Bunny) back to the Easter palace. Plus, all the bunnies are still looking for me! Emma thought she could maybe make it to the Easter Palace without getting caught. But the Easter bunny had the that same evil look that he had on his face on the tv at carrot gardens, that got Emma a bit scared.
Well I might as well just wake him up and see what happens. Emma woke him up and When he woke up the Easter bunny screamed and said, “ What happened? All I remember is a bad bunny who put me asleep and tried to take my place.Is there enough time to get ready for Easter?” “Yes” Emma replied.
“Great, but after I am done delivering things to all the houses we need to find the bunny who tried to replace me.” The Easter bunny said
“Wait you never said if the Easter bunny succeeded in replacing you or not.” Replied Emma
The Easter bunny said, “ I do not know because he put me in some kind of trance. He also looked a lot like me so I think he was trying to replace me.”
Then Emma and the Easter bunny took off to go deliver things to the children.
When they got to their first house they found another bunny there already. Then the Easter bunny whispered to Emma, “That is the bunny who tried to replace me.”
Emma and The Easter bunny looked again and saw that the bad bunny was putting out bad things like live snakes and spiders in a cage. Emma decided to ask him something, “what are you doing?” The bunny turned around immediately. The bad bunny said, “I am ruining Easter, that’s what I am doing. I have hated Easter ever since I was little. I tried out for the Easter bunny job and I did not get it. So now I am ruining Easter for everyone.”
Then the bad bunny waved his hand and it sent Emma flying to the ground in pain. Emma finally stood up with all her might. Then she looked at the bunny and behind them the Easter bunny was about to catch him. But the bad bunny did not know that.Then the bad bunny said, “Emma I know something about you that you do not know.” “What is it?” Emma replied
The fake Easter bunny just laughed. Then out of nowhere the Easter bunny grabbed the bad bunny with a net. The bad bunny was trapped. Emma asked the Easter bunny, “Where did you get the net?” “I know magic.” The Easter bunny replied.
Then Emma said, “ What was it that the bad bunny knows about me.” “ It could be anything so watch out Emma.” replied the Easter bunny.
Right after the Easter bunny said that, Emma said, “ I just realized I have a lot of questions. First I went to Carrot Garden and it was supposed to have your location. It did but it was incorrect.”
“That is just a myth. It does have my whereabouts but it is always incorrect.” Replied the Easter bunny.
“Also why did you have that evil looking face.” Said Emma
“I had an evil looking face? I did not know that. The bad bunny probably changed my face to make it look evil.”
Emma then said, “Well that is all the questions I have I guess. So how about you keep delivering things and I will bring this bad bunny to the Easter palace.”
The Easter bunny said, “ Yes. We have a jail In Easter palace that the guards will put him in. Also I will be there by the time you get to Easter palace. It doesn’t take to long to deliver presents then I will teleport to Easter palace.”
Emma said, “Okay I will meet you there.”
By the time Emma got to Easter palace it was already night. She was exhausted because she was carrying a sack with the bad bunny in it. She was about to go in when the Easter bunny appeared. He had teleported here. Emma then said, “Wait, what about my parents. They do not know where I am.”
The Easter bunny said,”Do not worry. When you are in Easter island your parents will think you are with them but you are really here. You will be there by tomorrow morning which is Easter.”
“Okay. Should we go in?”Emma said
The Easter bunny nodded and they both went in. The moment they went in, the Easter bunny’s started going toward Emma. Then they saw the Easter bunny and applauded. But then they looked confused. So Emma and the Easter bunny told them everything that happened.
The Easter bunny who told Emma told Emma if she found the Easter bunny she Would get something said, “Then I guess Emma, you and your family are not going to be poor anymore.”
“Thank you.” Emma said as the bunny guards were putting the bad bunny in jail.
Later the bunny’s transported her back to her home. Then her parents said, “Why are we not poor anymore?” Then Emma said, “It must have been the Easter Bunny.” Then Emma wondered what did the bad bunny mean by I know something about you Emma. Emma didn’t know but she left it to be wondered.
