AHHH the shellphone...it's RINGING?? I'm...I'm picking it up...and soon the secret will finally be FREE from the Scholastic overlords!!!! See my next post....
We were able to strike a deal...my life in exchange for the stolen Scholastic laptop......I let him take it from me, but not before exporting the file to my shellphone. Once I get somewhere safe, I'll open it.....hopefully later today........stay tuned......
OH GOD It's captain underpants with a sword!!! I'm finished!!!!!!!!!!! unless...
I thought I was safe....I was just about to order the catch of the day when a mysterious man sat down across from me with a newspaper........could this be a secret agent sent by scholastic to retrieve the file and put me down?
I have sought refuge in the Times Square Red Lobster
oh GOD oh my GOD the file asked for a password and I tried "12345" and IMMEDIATELY alarms went off throughout the building and they deployed clifford on me!! Scholastic how could you!!!!I grabbed the laptop and I'm RUNNING!!!!!!!! Where do I hide ???
