A long, long, time ago in the Greek cities about a thousand years ago. Myths went around and stories that became constellations and were famous for their victories and stories such as Orion and Scorpios. But the constellation that people remember the most is how SpongeBob Square pants got his laugh. In Greek cities they always made up stories and myths that became stories of the skies. Well the story went a little something like this.


Who lives in a pineapple under the sea, SpongeBob Square pants. One day he after a hard day at work in the Krusty Krab he and Patrick decided to go Jelly Fishing. It was around dawn and SpongeBob and Patrick were in Jelly Fish fields jumping around. They were giggling, when all of a sudden a jelly fish was awoken from his sleep. This was no ordinary jellyfish, this was the biggest of them all. Patrick and SpongeBob were laughing and having a good time when it was getting darker and darker. But it wasn’t the sky that was turning darker and darker it was the shadow of this huge Jellyfish. Patrick and SpongeBob had no defense so they started running. As SpongeBob was running he tripped over a rock. Now SpongeBob was crawling quickly and quickly, but SpongeBob had no chance.

SpongeBob woke up the next day in the Hospital. He had many stings all over the body. Patrick came into his room and cheered SpongeBob up. That is when his laugh started. Now when the Greeks looked up into the sky they saw SpongeBob Jelly fishing just like the picture below. The constellation was connected to Orion’s belt.

But that story did not end there. The Greeks thought so much of SpongeBob and his daring adventures that the Greeks tried Jelly fishing in the ocean. Many were killed and injured, but these deaths created fishing. Now the Greeks will take their poles (not as high tech as today) and fish just like SpongeBob did. Some fished for the sport of it, some just to relax, but most fished for food. The fish in the water were so good and tasty after being cooked of course. So every time the Greeks looked up in the sky they saw SpongeBob fishing for jellyfish. When people look up in the sky they will also remember how the sport of fishing was originated.

The L.L. East Constellations

If you look up in the sky late at night, far from the cities bright lights; you might be able to see the L.L. East constellations. The constellations consist of the three warriors (K.G. the Warrior Beast, Ray A. the Brave, and Paul P. the Wise), Lucky the Leprechaun also known as the L.L. East, and Justin C. Beaver. In 1,000 LC, the time when leprechauns ruled the land, a boy named Justin Chucky Beaver was constantly attempting to take down the leprechauns so he could be the new leader. Justin was the ugliest, weirdest, meanest, bipolar beast of the whole land, no one knew exactly who his parents were or why he came out looking the way he did. It just wasn’t normal to look ugly in the Land of Leprechauns unless you were some sort of mythical creature, but since they had never seen such a hideous beast ever before, they just decided to name his species the “Unknown Beast-Thingy”.

On one hot Summer day, Justin found this particular day, the best day to take action with his surprise attack, well he thought it was a surprise but he’d been tell people in the towns about this day for months. Even though Justin wasn’t the smartest person of all, he was stronger than 15 leprechauns put together so he figured that he could take out a whole army of leprechauns single handed. Little did the leprechauns know that Justin could take their army with no trouble; within the first 10 minutes of the battle the leprechauns’ militia, military troops, and soldiers were almost ready to give up the fight because most of their people were gone. Right when the leader Lucky was about to surrender he thought of the three most loyal knights that guarded the city and could easily take down the maniac that was attacking the leprechauns. Those three knights used to be slaves for the Giants but they were freed by Lucky, and would be honored to do any favor for Lucky since he hardly asked for much.

Lucky went on with his plan to call for the knights and sure enough the three knights didn’t hesitate to take on the mission. So there they were in a field staring smack dab in the eyes of a monster so hideous they had to wear goggles to protect their eyes from burning and dripping from their sockets. It was quiet and everything was still until Kevin Garnett the leader of the group, sprung to life and charged furiously at Justin. Kevin hit him so hard and with so much hatred that Justin went flying all the way across the field into a bed of daisies. Justin bounced straight back up and started charging right towards K.G. but K.G had turned his back and was now heading in the direction of the rest of his brothers.

Ray had caught a glimpse of Justin’s ugly buck teeth and pulled out his Basketball bomb and threw it in the grass right where Justin’s next step was going to be and BOOM!!!!!!! One big explosion shook the whole land causing everyone to fall back, surprisingly Justin hopped right back up like he wasn’t even phased by the explosion in his face. He might have got back up but you could tell he was about to give up; there was blood dripping down from the corner of his eyes, lip, ear, and just all over the place but that didn’t stop him from trying to get what he wanted.

By then Paul was sick of missing out on all the action so he ran over and grabbed a dirt bike that was resting against the trunk of a tree, and began to speed towards Justin like he was a jouster his whole life and stabbed him right through the heart, while K.G punched him halfway to China.

A few days after the war Justin’s body was found in a river by a farm in Beijing, China; as a reward for the three brothers the leprechaun god placed the faces of the three warrior brothers in the night sky. And for thinking quickly under pressure, Luck’s face was placed in the sky right next to the three brothers, and for Justin…well he was fortunate to be placed anywhere but he was placed in the sky because he was the only beast of his kind. And as for the leprechauns well they lived their lives happily…until the humans over powered them.

Rosie and Mary

Once upon a time there lived two women who were best friends since their childhood. They had done everything together from as long as they had known such as shopping, studying, and even going on vacation. One day, one of the women, Mary, decided that she was getting tired of her friend Rosie. She then decided to make a few new friends.

Rosie got very angry at Mary. She wanted to be Mary’s one and only friend. Rosie and Mary got into a huge fight, and eventually Mary just left Rosie.

Mary went off and made tons of new friends. She became very popular. She didn’t know that she could have so many friends at one time!! She had been hanging out with Rosie her whole life and since people didn’t really like Rosie, they had never gotten to know her. So Mary then spend 10 more years of her life, with her new friends, leaving Rosie forgotten. Sometimes she got lonely, and thought about how Rosie would have been with her right then, but for the most part she was happy.

Rosie on the other hand was furious with her friend. She thought that it was all Mary’s fault that things ended up the way they did. She spend the next 10 years of her life in a very depressed stage. However, she never did learn how to take the blame for the mistakes she made.

One day, as Mary was heading to the grocery store to pick up a few things she ran into Rosie. She decided to go say hi to her. As soon as Rosie saw Mary she started yelling and throwing things in every direction. Mary didn’t know how dramatically Rosie had changed since the time they were friends, and she became very frightened. Mary ran away.

After Mary ran away, Rosie was in the worst shape that she had ever been in. She realized that she should have talked to her instead of getting angry at her. She also knew that she shouldn’t have been so selfish. Since Rosie felt really bad and wished things could have turned out better between them, Rosie made a constellation in the sky of her and Mary. You can still see this constellation today. If you look up into the sky during the winter on a clear night, and look to the East, you will see star Mary, which is Mary’s head. Right next to star Mary, you will find star Rosie, which is Rosie’s head. The rest of their bodies are right below their heads. The two constellations have 34 stars included in them.

During the early years of his life Orion was the ruler of his kingdom. When he grew up he went on an expedition to find the true meaning of space with his comapnion Draco the dragon. Along the way he went through tons of obstacles but luckily he had survival skills. He traveled to Hogna and witnessed the most terryifiying event. Aquilla the eagle was killing everyone in sight but luckily he knew how to fight and killed Aquilla before he could do more damage. Draco was right behind him but then they went into the most evil place in all of the entire universe. It took both of them to kill all of them. Finally they reached the most amazing place in the world: Haley’s Comet.

During this time both Draco and Moritca were shocked in how beautiful it was but then the most horrible thing happened. Lord Frogert got the most powerful force in all the universe. The Grogers which were more powerful than them both combined. Draco and Morta had to flee. They went back to get more force but the townspeople were too scared so they had no choice but to face the Grogers themselves. Before they left they collected anything they could carry like lightning arrows, armor etc. Finally they were ready to face the Gortas.

Something strange was different to the location that they were at. It seemed more dull and suddenly both of them heard a voice behind them “We took every weapon known to man and we are going to use it against you.” By this time both of them were frightened by the voice and they felt uneasy but they had no choice: die while fleeing or die trying, or succeed. Finally they had to face their ultimate test: defeat the Grogers. It took more than two centuries to defeat all of them but they did it.

Because they defeated the Grogers they are remembered in history for saving the whole world from devasation. Now Mortica is right next to the constellation Orion for his famous actions.

Gift of Gods





Once Long ago the Greeks looked into the night sky and a masterpiece of a Constellation. Besides its gorgeous site they knew it would help people find their way around at night with its tremendously bright stars. They named this constellation Gifts of God, only because the constellation consist of stars who’s name were to be known in the future as basketball phenomenon’s , and because there was never and will never be a constellation as cool as this one when you look in the night sky.

Looking into the night sky you will see a series of stars some yellow some blue, some small some big , but you will never see anything easier to point then the Constellation “Gift of Gods” in the night sky. To find this mind blowing constellation you can simply look into the south sky during the night and see it because of its beautiful site which happens to be in the shape of a half of a basketball and has extremely bright stars. Otherwise you can locate it by finding the North Star and turn exactly 180 degrees and you will pop out at you in the beautiful night sky. One of the main reasons this constellation is famous is because of its stars being so bright, but it is also famous because of the names of the stars .

Gifts of God is made up of four famous stars. The biggest and the brightest star is named Michael Jordan, and is a double supergiant star that is very rare, and on top of being so rare it was formed so long ago that it is towards the end of its life stage. Looking forward into the future astronomers say that it might nuclear fusion and form a new star. Magic Johnson is the name of the mega supergiant star in this constellation it is the only star of its kind, it is old but not as old as Michael Jordan , and should be around for the next 3 decades or so. One of the more unnoticeable stars is Devin Downey, it is a smaller star, and doesn’t have much light and is a still a very young star. In the next year or so, professional astronomers say that it will form into a triple giant star and be the biggest, brightest, and only one of its kind in the night sky. Last but not least the smallest star in the constellation is named J.P. Tokoto, youngest of all stars, astronomers say that in the next five years it will also transform like Devin Downey into a triple giant star, and be the second of that kind. With such interesting names and rarity in the stars it brings up the myth of this fabulous constellations.

Long, Long ago a famous Greek astronomer named Unstoppable looked into the night sky and had never seen anything in his life, that he had just seen before his own eyes. In such astonishment, he had decided to name this magical form of stars Gifts of God, that looks like a half of a basketball in the night sky. It was said that on this night, these series of stars in this constellation were formed earlier that day and were first seen by Unstoppable. Being the first person to see the stars, Unstoppable decided that he would also name the stars in this once in a lifetime constellation. Now Unstoppable was a different kind of person compare to anybody else back then in Greece. People said that he could see into the future centuries after his lifetime. Since he could see into the future he knew that basketball was going to be a extraordinarily sport, and knew whose names would never be forgotten in a wonderful game it would become. Knowing the future of basketball he decided that he would name it’s biggest star Michael Jordan knowing that it he would be the best basketball player in history. He also knew that Magic Johnson at 6’9 and with his abilities would be a player of life time so he decided to name the second biggest star after Magic Johnson. Looking a couple decades later Unstoppable found what a talent Devin Downey would be in the game of college basketball and was so fascinated by his array of skills that he decided to name the third star after what would be a exceedingly player in Devin
Downey. When Unstoppable noticed that none of players he named the stars after came from the Midwest he decided to pick a player from that area. It just so happened that it turned out that the name of the fourth star in his constellation would be named after J.P. Tokoto from Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin who is in right now and may be the best player to come out of Wisconsin in basketball history.

Gifts of God is truly a one of a kind constellation. With its variety in stars, location, and its mind boggling myth there’s doubt as to why it has its name as well as its popularity in the night sky.

The nerd constellations can be found in just above the North Star about 20 feet. That is were the nose piece is. Then you can find your way around for it. They are all blue stars in color. You can see that it is in the shape of his glasses.

All the blue stars that are in the Nerd constellation are in one big constellation. The first star is on the upper left of his glasses. That is the star of Vince. He was one of the bully’s that were killing him in his life. The next one is the lower glasses part. That star is named Ryan. The was his only nerd friend that went to school with. The eye if he is Frances. He was anchor bully that picked on him. Then the other on up and to the right is called Jen. Jen was his girl friend for 14 hours. That was his first girl friend ever and his only. The lower peace of that one is Jackson. He always stole his lunch or lunch money. On the other side the top right on is Sim. He was his first friend but he turned into a bully. He stole his bike every day and rode it him. Then gave it back to him in two pieces. The left star it is called apple. The reason why it is called apple is that was the only thing he ate for lunch. Then the lower right star is called one. He always sat by his self at lunch. Then the lower left star is called Tec. The reason why that call it Tec is because he is a Tec know nerd. Then right star in the middle is called black eye. The reason why they call it black eye is because it all ways was black and blue.

In 1996 People discovered ton of new stars. Then they saw that it made a shape of a nerd’s glasses. Before they named it. The tried to finger out why it was there. It started from a nerd that had no friends. His name was goaga. He was a boy. At that time every one called him girly girl and nail painter. So when he went to school every day his lunch money was stolen. The person who stole it was named Frances. He is the eye of the star. The time he had no lunch money there was a bully that picked on him and stole his lunch when he had one. His name was Ryan. So when he had enough of it. He went insane.
It was the last day of school when he was an 8th grader who is going to a different school next year. He tock an upper cut right into every bully’s noise and broke it.
From the next day he felt good about it. When he was older and he was a rocket scientist. He went up in space to look at the moon. When he first rotated the moon there ended up being real big issues that happened when he was on the other side of the moon. He called in hutsan and said “we have an issue”
Huston comes back and said “what is the issue”
He said “I put Buzz and Neil on to the moon.” You got that Huston! Suddenly BANG the ship blows up and there happened to be a few new stars come. Then That is how the nerd constellation came true. He looks over every bully in his past and every spaced person that goes up into space.

Sam M. Marlin and Dory's Adventure.




It was a great day in the sea, while Dory and Marlin were swimming trying to find Marlin's son Nemo, the sea went really dark! They had no clue on where to go, they could get through the sea by noise, but that would be kind of hard, because fish don't have ears. They knew that they would have to then get through the ocean by vibrations and what's around them. Dory and Marlin did not know why the sea went black, but they knew only one thing that would turn it black and that would be if someone had moved the Snowfloray out of the way. The Snowfloray is a planet or a star, that makes the sky brighter and gives the sea light to see. If someone takes the Snowfloray out or away from the sky, the sea could never be light again!

A few days later, Marlin and Dory set out to find the missing Snowfloray because the sea is still really dark. They had also found Nemo in the sea, who had came from a dentist's office. Nemo had said that there was this little girl, Darla, who was killing a lot of fish she had been given, and Nemo was almost one of them. All of a sudden, Marlin had an idea, he knew that the only way to get the star would be to fly up there, and he knew that Darla had to have taken it. But how? Marlin and Dory knew the only way to get up there would be to take a rocket ship. He also knew that he would have to be in some kind of water, so he swam to his friend, Spongebob's house to ask him about how he could do that. Spongebob said that he could take a bottle and fill it up with water and swim in water that way.

The next day, Marlin and Dory set off to space to try to find out who had taken the star, Snowfloray away to stop the light. It was a long adventure, and when they had finally reached space, they got out in their bottles and searched... for a very long time! Hours, days, weeks... they wouldn't leave until they found a trace about who had taken the star. All of a sudden Marlin found a trace of a piece of Darla's hair. He followed the floating hair, which then lead to her. There she was standing right next to the star, with her little evil look, smirking at Marlin and Dory in the look that says "you will never get this back!". All of a sudden, Squirt and Nemo show up, who are the side kicks. They all huttle together and come up with a plan, they say "the only way we can get the star back in its place is to fight Darla, before she ruins it!".

Darla just stands there and then the little fish come out of their bottles and defeat Darla. Before that they come up with a bet, if they win, they get to put the star back in place and make Darla a little star, but if she wins, she gets to take the star and do whatever she wants with it. Marlin, Nemo, Dory and Squirt start to battle with seaweed and a wire from Darla's braces. They fight for about twenty minutes, they are all tired and the winner is final. Marlin, Nemo, Dory and Squirt end up winning and gets to take the star back to its place, along with Darla. The whole gang talks to each other and thinks it would be better for them to be put in the sky as part of the star, rather then going back down into the sea. So in the end, they all turn into stars, and are put into the sky to be recognized as a part of the Snowfloray.

Kyle K. The Great Blue Starred Dragon Of the Night






According to the Mayans The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night has ever sense been found by following the two stars making up of Pegasus’s head to run into two tail stars of The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night. Although many have depicted The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night as a twin to Pegasus many others believe that it is the long lasted hunter who has been chasing down Pegasus ever sense the beginning of time. The Mayan civilizations finally named the great constellation after itself for all 9 of the stars becoming blue after what was thought of the Epic Battle.

Each of the 9 stars on The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night have been blue sense the time the Mayans had spotted The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night. Although many don’t have names because of the quantity and almost everyone just wanting to name them the Great Blue star, they finally chose on these names: La grande étoile bleue, Большие голубые звезды, Büyük mavi yıldız, Stea mare albastru, La gran estrella de color azul, Den stora blå stjärna, Veľká modrá hviezda, ดาวสีฟ้ามาก, and Ang dakilang asul na bituin. Even though it took astronomers many, many years to find out what all of the different words meant thing came to the conclusion that the languages used where in French, Russian, Turkish, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish, Slovak, Thai, and Tagalog. Too bad all the Mayans didn’t get credit for creating all 9 of those languages.

Throughout the many years of battle between the Mayans and the temple people of the stars they finally collided in an epic battle. Although the temple people of the stars had many advantages because the stars were the most almighty in the entire universe the Mayans didn’t give up. So they worked and worked trying to figure out how to create a constellations in the night sky. Thus came the day of success and liberty for they launched a spear so high it hit Pegasus creating a new Constellation which is known today as The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night. During the years of this battle the temple people of the stars recreated Pegasus and sense that day The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night and Pegasus the almighty flying horse have been nemeses.

Throughout this epic battle The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night had been fighting off Pegasus and winning the battle until the final day that the Mayans thought would have ended the battle between the temple people of the stars. The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night had crept upon Pegasus and was going to blow a final blow but Orion the hunter had shot The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night in the neck with a anesthetic which made him fall asleep for the past million years.

Although those one million years about to expire many temple people of the stars are still on vast discoveries about the far past of Orion and how they can once again help him create another anesthetic arrow to shoot The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night with. Mayan civilizations have evacuated and have tried to dig holes to the center of the earth to see if they survive the horrible scene that The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night will soon create. The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night has been at rest now for the past 999,997.1666 repeating years.

In the year 2012 The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night is depicted to come out from his slumber and destroy all of the existing constellations creating a giant black hole. This black hole would be so huge that it would end up sucking our entire universe as we know it. The Mayans knowing the power of The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night ended up ending their Calendar on that day to show us all that the world would come to an end all from The Almighty Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night. The world shall not come to an end if only Orion can create another anesthetic arrow and put him to sleep for another one million years but till that day we will never know, for it will be a race to the finish to see if the temple people of the stars can finally take out The Great Blue Starred Dragon of the Night and save the entire world and be well known astronomers.

Staring up at the night sky we see a lot of different constellations that make different shapes. Though sometimes, you get that one special one that doesn’t really make anything . Imagine if you had your own story, and you had to create your own constellation. What would you call your stars? How would you find it? Is it near anything special? What’s the story behind the story? Each and every star is special in its own way. Even though some stars aren’t as big and bright as others, they are just as special as the next.
In the beautiful island of Sicily, there once lived a King and Queen. They had hoped for so long to have a family. And finally their wish came true. They had two twin girls, Isabella Sophia, and Alexandra Maria. They were the most beautiful girls that you had ever seen. The King and Queen were so proud. Many years later, when Isabella and Alexandra turned 10, the King and Queen decided to bring one more into the family. And that, was when Valerie Katharine was born. Then, when Valerie was 4, and the twins were 14, they were invited to a royal family ball. They were so excited. They went from store to store to find the perfect dress. Their day was going just like they had planned. But, what they didn’t know, was that there was a mean and nasty man following them. He had a plan to sabotage the Bellasori family. Pablo decided to continue with his plan. He crashed into the Bellasori car, hurting and killing only the twins. The King and Queen were devastated. They love Valarie, but that was all they had left. Eventually as time went by, they realized that they missed their little girls. In their memory, the King and Queen decided to buy them stars. Together, they make The Royals.
When you look up at the sky, some constellations are very hard to find. Time to time, some of them move too. As for The Royals, they never move. If you look up at the queen that is shaped like a “w”, and if you look straight to the left of that, you will find six different stars. Together, they make an upside down “m” and an upside right “m”. These stars never move. The names of the stars are, Bella, Alex, Royal, Princess, Love, and Peace, Hope, and Faith. All eight of these stars make symmetrical crowns.
There are a ton of myths and rumors in the world. Some of them aren’t true. But, if you are superstitious, you might easily believe the myths. However, be careful what you believe. Many Sicilians love to look up in the night sky. They love pointing out The Royal stars. Many people believe that if you are feeling down and can’t seem to get any happier, if you look up at the sky, it is said to make you feel happy. Sure, some people don’t believe it. But, if you are one of the ones that do believe. Not only is it said to make you happy, but it is also supposed to bring you good luck. You don’t have to believe it. But when you do, good luck will come to you!
Many different stars light up the night sky. And some of them make no sense. The stories behind each one are unique and special in their own ways. Not everyone has to believe in myths. There are superstitious people out there who do. There’s more to everything that what it seems. Give that a thought once!

The Chicken








Once upon a time there was a magical chicken. He was one of the most hated creatures in all the land. One of the reasons that he was hated so much was because of his magical tricks. They would always end up useless and would sometimes cause harm to the other creatures. No one wanted to talk to the chicken or even look at him. They had even thrown him into a black hole once, but by using one of his magical tricks the chicken was able to escape.

One day, the evil grimace came to attack the chicken’s home would where all the creatures were in grave danger. The chicken didn’t know what to do so he hid across the galaxy on a very distant planet. He waited there for 10 long years until one day he decided to go back to his long lost home.

When he got there the grimace had taken over. Now there were many smaller grimaces being controlled by the grimace himself. There wasn’t much time. Before the chicken knew it he had been spotted. The grimace lunged at the chicken, but the chicken was quick and dodged the attack. Then the grimace took out his poisonous grape drank and threw it at the chicken. The chicken was hit by this and was wounded. Just as it seemed like the chicken would lose the battle and be defeated by the grimace, the chicken ran at the grimace and head butted him with his beak. The grimace was knocked down and critically wounded. The chicken took this opportunity to finish him off. He picked up the grimace and with mighty strength he threw him as hard as he could. The grimace went hurtling off into space where he soon collided into a star. He exploded and burst into flames, not even his beloved grape drank could save him.

Once the grimace was killed, all of the other smaller grimaces fled and went back to their original planet. As soon as all the other creatures found out that the chicken defeated the grimace and restored peace to their long lost planet, they came back to their homeland to congratulate the chicken. But the chicken had not forgotten what they had done to him. He then threatened to kill all of them unless they named a constellation after him. Seeing what the chicken did to the grimace, they were all very afraid of what he might do to them. They agreed to make the chicken a constellation, but the anger stilled flowed through the chicken. He became so angry he killed many of the creatures that had made fun of him. Some of the remaining creatures fled the planet and lived in fear for the rest of their lives.

Jimmy the Llama















On the wondrous planet of the Great Planet of Alpacas, lived a shutter shade wearing, beat boxing alpaca named Jimmy. Jimmy was no ordinary alpaca, he was the leader, and the founder of the Great Planet of Alpacas. He liked things to go his way, and only his way. There’s a rule on the Great Planet of Alpacas, every wall must have at least one picture of Jimmy on it, and if you disobeyed Jimmy, you’d get more pictures of him put up on your walls

Anyways, one day Jimmy was extremely bored. He had nothing to do but put pictures up of himself, he already tried to go for a jog, but he was still stressed out and bored. What Jimmy really needed was a good friend. But where could he find one? Jimmy decided to go on a quest for a best friend. So he hopped in his red space convertible and drove to all the great animal planets.

His first stop was the Great planet of Sheep. He decided to go straight to the head master himself, Bob.
“Bob I need some help,” said Jimmy.
“Well what is it you need young alpaca,” Bob asked.
“Well I came here to find a best friend.”
“And since when are you friends with sheep?”
“I don’t know?” replied Jimmy “you’re my first stop, so I thought I would visit.”
“Well I hate to say it Jimmy, but you’re going need to keep searching”, Bob said, a look of sincerity in his big sheep eyes.
“Thanks anyways Bob, I guess I’ll see you later.”

While walking back to his red space convertible Jimmy found a penny.
“Find a penny pick it up, all day long you’ll have good luck”, Jimmy recited to himself.

Great I’ll have great luck finding a best friend for the rest of the day thought Jimmy. Jimmy then hopped in his car and zoomed of to the Great Planet of Beaver’s. Jimmy sort of knew the two leaders Beaver, and Beavette. So Jimmy pulled up to the planet and asked Beaver, and Beavette if they had any good best friends for him.

“Well there might be one beaver that could be your best friend”, Beaver to Jimmy.
“Great so what’s his name”, Jimmy asked.
“Her name is Beva- Diva”, replied Beavette.
“Ok let me meet her”, Jimmy said.
“Well I’m afraid we can’t do that Jimmy, you see Beva-Diva is in training right now, and is unable to meet”, Beaver told Jimmy.
“Well I need a best friend now”, demanded Jimmy.
“Then I guess Beva- Diva isn’t meant to be”, replied Beavette.
“Well I guess, I got to go, bye!”

And with that Jimmy stormed off to the next planet. When Jimmy arrived he didn’t recognize the planet, it was purple and had spots. Jimmy parked his space car and got out, he was galloping to the main building to find out who the leader was.

When he arrived he was told to sit in the waiting room. He did as he was told and took a seat. While waiting there was music playing in the background. It was some new pop llama song. Jimmy just rolled his eyes at the lameness. Then and there a tall man walked in. He called for Jimmy and Jimmy immediately got up.

“You must be Jimmy said the tall man”, said the tall man.
“Yeah that’s t me!”, replied Jimmy.
“Well my name is Zeus, and I understand that your on a hunt for a best friend”, Zeus stated.
“That’s true, do you have anyone?”
“I might have one llama.”
“Llama?”, Jimmy questioned “Oh wait is this the Great Planet of Llama’s?”
“No, this is my planet, I just have a pet llama named the Great Llama.”
“Okay, well can I meet him.”
“Why not your going to be best friends”, stated Zeus.
“Ah, yeah bff’s”, Jimmy said, a little bit of fear in his voice.

Zeus then yelled for the llama to come out. The llama walked out and Jimmy knew right from that second they were going to be best friends.

“mehh”, said the llama.
“You’re my new best friend”, Jimmy said with a sparkle in his eye.

Later on Jimmy and the llama exchanged e-mail addresses and they kept in contact with each other. Zeus was so happy that his llama found a friend that he made a constellation of Jimmy. Now every night if you look into the sky you'll see 5 stars in the shape of Jimmy's head.

The End…

The constellation Sea Heroes can be found by locating the small blue star called Darla. It is very near the North Star and can easily found because of its location and unique blue color. Darla is a very small star, and is part of Nemo’s tail. From there you can recognize the rest of the constellation. The
other stars that make up this constellation are Squirt, Nemo, Marlin, Dory, Nigel, and Snowflorays.
Squirt is the main star in the Squirt constellation and Nemo is the main star in the Nemo constellation. The other four stars that make up Squirt, are Marlin, Dory, Nigel and Snowflorays. Darla is the other star in Nemo. Each of these stars and the constellations have special meaning. The constellations Squirt and Nemo are in the sky for defeating Darla, the evil little girl. They are seen together because they are best friends who saved the seasons with Snowflorays, a special star which glows brightly in Squirt’s flipper. Squirt’s other flipper is represented by the Nigel star because Nigel led them to find Snowflorays. The star Marlin represents Squirt’s shell because he is very protective like a turtle shell. Squirt’s back flipper is represented by Dory because she follows him when him and Nemo go to find Darla. Nemo is made up of the Nemo and Darla stars. The Nemo star represents his head and the Darla star represents his tail because she is behind them, small and evil. The Darla star is blue because she is an evil girl, and is small because she shrunk when they defeated her.

Once upon a time there was a fish named Marlin. He had a son named Nemo. It was the end of winter and the next day Spring was supposed to come. Nemo was very excited and couldn’t wait. He really wanted Spring to come because then it wouldn’t be cold anymore and he could play outside. That night he dreamt of pretty flowers and bright sunshine that would be there the next day.

In the morning Nemo woke up and was very excited. Now he and his best friend Squirt could play outside everyday! He went to see his friend Squirt to see if he could come play outside. On the way he noticed that it was still cold and the flowers had not come yet. Worried he swam faster to Squirt’s house. When he got there Squirt was very upset. He told him that Spring wasn’t coming. They both started crying because Spring was their favorite season. Nemo asked Squirt, “What can we do?”

Suddenly a seagull appeared and said, “My name is Nigel and I can help. I have a map that leads you to Darla.” “Who’s Darla?” said Squirt. “She’s an evil little girl who stole the Snowflorays, the magical star that makes the seasons change. Without it Spring will never come and it will always be winter! You have to go get it back so the seasons will once again change.” Nigel answered. “Let’s go!” Nemo said enthusiastically.

Squirt and Nemo left in search of Darla and Nigel went with them. The three of them travelled for five days until they came to a place called Evil Land. There they found Darla. Darla was so ugly that they would die if they looked at her so they wore sunglasses. After days of battling nobody was winning. Suddenly they heard a noise. “NEMOOOO!!!” Marlin shouted. “DAD?!” Nemo shouted back. Suddenly Dory and Marlin appeared. “See I told you if we just kept swimming we’d get there.” Dory said.

Suddenly Darla screamed, “You’ll never get the Snowflorays!” Fighting broke out and then Darla became very small. They had defeated her. They were all happy and magically Spring started to appear. They had saved the seasons! Marlin was upset because Nemo and Squirt didn’t tell him they where they were going but he was happy they had saved spring and all of the seasons. They all went home and played tag in the sunshine. Squirt and Nemo were now heroes and they lived happily ever after.
Everyone was so happy with Squirt and Nemo that they honored them by putting them in a constellation in the sky. All of the stars are named after important Now every time you look into the sky you will find a turtle and a fish next to each other in the sky. They remind us that together best friends can do anything they put their minds to.

Constellation




Snowflorays is the second most accented constellation in the night time sky. This constellation is made up of a flower, rays, and a snowflake. In this constellation there are some stars that have more of an accent to them. They are the key points, which is the center of both the flower and the snowflake. The accented star in the middle represents the pollen. For the snowflake the middle represents the combination of the six parts that branch off while being connected to the middle. The middle stars that are in between the main parts are looked at like the base and it is the one in charge; therefore, that is why it has an accent to it. The middle part of the constellation is the rays that represents season to season. Also it shows that you have to wait a while to get what you want it, and also it shows you that you have to be patient for the next season to come.

When people look up into the nighttime sky they feel freedom. They have either a billion ideas going off or just an empty thought. Looking up in the sky makes all your worries disappear as if the wind took them all away. It always amazes me how priceless it can be. If only you could just sit in a hammock and look at the billion stars twinkle down at you as you start to wind down for the day. Looking in the gorgeous nighttime sky and trying to find SnowFloRays you have to look for the moon. And around the moon’s edges you will find this constellation going in a circle, it surrounds the whole moon in circle formation. It is one of a kind there is no other constellation like it. It is something unique as well as something you would never see; no other constellation is like this. It is like its own unique flavor of ice cream, you never know what you will expect.

This constellation reminds people to work hard. It is known for reminding you that you always have to be patient; you can’t always get your way. You have to be kind to others and treat people with respect if you like them or not. This constellation is a perfect example and is very symbolic. When people look up into the nighttime sky and see snowflorays they are always reminded to do their best and put effort into every single thing they do, even if it is the smallest little thing like a detail put into artwork you just can’t forget about.

The myth behind this constellation is a story about a teenage girl who never stopped believing. All the people around her always knew that she would never meet her high set standards. She knew that she had to work hard at it and was willing to. When she was little she always had an interest in cooking and art. She thought she would give it a try and see how it worked. She got so hooked on creating new things that it always seemed like she had a brilliant idea, but most of the time it never really worked; however, she didn’t let that defeat her. When creating new recipes it always didn’t turn out how she wanted. Sometimes the creations would taste like dry flour. She always knew she was forgetting one important ingredient. Well that is what she said, we all knew that she just didn’t know or had a clue, what to put in it to give the food some magic to it. Well that changed after some time. Actually all that changed in a couple of years, eventually she started creating magnificent things, that shocked her as well. She was in for a big surprise. Later on in life she then realizes, if she can create draw dropping foods then why not add some more to it, like adding all her art skills to her creations, which is her other passion. When she put the two together she came up with mind blowing things. She could create anything you could possibly think of. When all her stuff was posted from around the world from T.V to the internet and even to the magazines, that is when she became widely known. That is when she got offered a dream job, and that was to work with Duff Goldman, who is an amazing artist and chef. He went down the same path as she did. She then proved everybody wrong, and it showed people that if you follow your dreams you will get there. You just got to be patient and that is how this whole story connects to the constellation called snowflorays.

The Great Llama

In ancient times, llamas were considered very rare. This llama was extra rare, it was purple. The king of gods, Zeus owned this llama. It was his favorite pet. Zeus took the llama everywhere with him.

There was only one thing wrong with the llama. He didn’t have a name. Zeus just called him the Great Llama. This bothered Zeus. Every day, he sat in his room, thinking about a name for the Great Llama. Eventually, Zeus got tired of thinking, so he decided to go on a long journey through the universe to find a name for the Great Llama.

Zeus and the llama got in a spaceship and started to travel through space. They stopped on every planet and asked the aliens if they had a good name for the Great Llama. None of the aliens had a name for him. They kept searching, but nobody had an idea for what Zeus could name his Great Llama.

Eventually, Zeus found the Great Planet of Alpacas. Zeus and the Great Llama stopped on the planet to see if they had a name for the Great Llama. Zeus went to the leader of the Alpaca planet, his name was Jimmy. He was the founder of the planet, and he was also the leader. Jimmy was a very odd alpaca. He liked to wear shutter shades, and he loved beat boxing.

Jimmy had his butler show Zeus and the Great Llama to the room that they would be staying in. It was a very big house. It had lots of bean bag chairs and it had a picture of Jimmy on every wall. Zeus took down the pictures of Jimmy because they really scared him.

Zeus and the Great Llama were allowed to stay in the house until Jimmy figured out a name for the Great Llama. Both the Great Llama and Zeus slept well that night, knowing that the pictures of Jimmy weren’t on the wall. The pictures were just too scary for them.

When they woke up, the Great Llama noticed something different about the room, Zeus noticed too. Then the Great Llama figured out what was different, the pictures were back! Zeus was really scared. He said,
“Who did this?”
“I did!” Jimmy’s head popped up from behind a lime green bean bag chair. It made Zeus and the Great Llama jump. “There’s a law on my planet, on every wall, there has to be a picture of me. If you take them down, more go up.”

Zeus and the Great Llama started to back away, slowly. They ran out the door and headed for their spaceship. Unfortunately, Jimmy had ninja alpacas and they were fast enough to catch the Great Llama. Zeus continued to run for his spaceship. Luckily, Zeus made it to his spaceship before the ninja alpacas got him. This made Jimmy angry so he got in his convertible spaceship and chased after him.

Jimmy caught up to him and Zeus couldn’t run away anymore. He had an idea. Zeus told Jimmy if he would let him go, he would make a constellation that looked like him. Since Jimmy liked pictures of himself so much, he decided that a constellation would be even better.

After Zeus got home, he remembered that he left the Great Llama on the Great Planet of alpacas, and he still didn’t have a name. When Zeus went to make the constellation of Jimmy, he made one of the Great Llama, too.

The two constellations were on either side of the North Star because that would make them easy to find. He made the constellation of the Great Llama wonderful, he stood tall and proud. The constellation of Jimmy however, was not the greatest. Zeus was still mad at Jimmy for taking the Great Llama away from him. In the constellation of Jimmy, he was making one of the weirdest faces imaginable. This made Jimmy angry, but he knew Zeus was still very mad at him so he didn’t do anything about it.

In the end, Zeus got a pet squirrel to replace the Great Llama. He named him The Great Llama 2. Jimmy left his planet to try and find a best friend, and the constellations of the two animals stayed in the sky forever.

Long ago there long lived Zeus the King, but the village of the Olympian Gods was not safe. The evil Llama King of Peru was coming to take their kingdom away. Zeus was not powerful enough for the evil Llama King, so he sent his greatest weapon, the Koi Brothers. They fought side by side in combat for the great King. They were just as powerful as the great Zeus, two of a kind. So the king decided to have them fight for him in the battle. They stood ready and waiting for the Llama King and his great army to arrive and for the battle to begin, waiting and waiting, for 3 days they waited, then finally the King and his army arrived. The battle was about to begin, the biggest battle there was.


People from miles away, came to see the battle. They were more excited than ever. People called out to other planets just because of the battle. This fight brought people from miles and even galaxies away to come and witness this event. People were lined up from the village of the Olympian Gods all the way into another Galaxy. But the Koi brothers did not want to disappoint their ruler King Zeus or any of their fans, so instead of doing as they were told which was to greet and meet fans. They fought with each other, not hard, but enough to get them pumped for the battle. And now they were truly ready.


One by one the brothers fought of the army the Llama had built to bring them down. Zeus had to bring all of his power into a special bag; he said to the Koi Brothers, “This bag is full of my power, the power that I use every day to make rain and thunder. Only use this power if you are in grave danger.” The Koi Brothers accepted this great gift. Day after day the Koi Brothers fought, waiting for their turn to take down the Llama King. Everything is silent, and everyone stares.
The souls of the Gods were proud; they sit and watch after the Koi Brothers do their duty. Finally, their moment of truth has come. The Koi Brothers against the Llama King. The Kind uses all his power, and BAM, he takes the Brothers down with one hit. As they lie on the floor and just stare at each other wondering what to do now, they remember they have the powerful bag of Zeus’s power.


As the Llama King laughs away as he defeated the Koi Brothers, they slowly pull out the bag an open it. With the power of Zeus and the power of themselves, they destroyed the King. The power of Zeus surrounded him and he left powerless, he fell to the ground and surrendered. He gave all his power to the Zeus the King. He was put into jail with the power of the Koi Brothers looking after him.


Since they crushed the King, the Great Zeus granted them with a gift. He granted them the sight that everyone could see, that people would know it was because of them. The gift of the sky night stars. So now every night people can look up into the night sky and see the Koi Brothers. They are there, fighting anything horrible that comes our way. Protecting us from within the sky.

GRIMACE

A long, long time ago. Around 101 B.C. There was…a warrior who stopped at nothing to get what he wanted. He had thousands of soldiers and couldn’t be stopped. But one day, he ran into his arch enemies, The McNugget Buddies, and The Happy Meal Gang. But their captain was the worst of the worst, Officer Big Mac. Officer Big Mac destroyed The McNugget Buddies and The Happy Meal Gang and took them as their warriors and trained them to the highest abilities about 10 years ago. But one man.. who will try to stop them is…THE GRIMACE. The Grimace went to his ancestor’s named King Gonga who was once the king of all Grimaces and has passed his power down to THE Grimace. The Grimace gave his main warriors, Mayor McCheese, and the Hamburgler his Grape Drank to power them up and give them extra adrenalin.

As the battle began, Mayor McCheese bolted for Office Big Mac. But The Happy Meal Gang stepped in and threw their happy meal toy at Mayor McCheese. They hit him so hard with the happy meal toy, that he went flying all the way to planet Earth. The Happy Meal Gang then went for the Hamburgler. Luckily, since the Hamburgler overdosed on Grape Drank, he had this feeling in this body coming from his stomach to his throat to his mouth. As The Happy Meal Gang Tried to swing their toy at the Hamburgler, he burped so loud the cheeseburger and fries and toy flew right out of the Happy Meal Gang. So the only men left standing were the Grimace, the Hamburgler, Officer Big Mac, and The McNugget Buddies. The Hamburgler took one step forward and saw Office Big Mac throwing one of his meat patties right at him. Just in time, he pulled the matrix and grabbed the meat patty in mid air and spun it around and knocked all 5 of the McNugget Buddies out of their carrying case.

It was now 2 vs. 1. Officer Big Mac threw another one of his meat patties at the Hamburgler, but this time he didn’t realized that there was extra grease on the patty. So as the Hamburgler was about to grab the meat patty grease came flying out of the patty and blinded the Hamburgler and got hit out of the galaxy. It was now 1 vs. 1. The ruler of each side. Hot vs. cold, light vs. dark. Officer Big Mac, now just a cheeseburger cause he only has one meat patty. He realized in order for him to defeat the mighty Grimace he has to throw his last one. He threw his last meat patty, but what the Grimace didn’t know is that its heat censored. But the Grimace started to laugh and what Officer Big Mac didn’t know is that the Grimace is made out of Grape drink. Then he realized that Grape drink is cold. Officer Big Mac then knew…that he was a steaming hot burger. He looked up and saw his own meat patty coming right at him. He was blasted all the way to the sun were he then melted and exploded.

That is the Battle of the Grimace. You can locate the Grimace in the sky by looking at ORyan’s Belt which is the three stars that are in the mid section of the Grimace. One is the upper left part of his body, the middle one is the Grimace’s Right hand, and the third one is the Grimace’s left hand. This battle will never be forgotten. So next time the sky is crystal clear look up and you will see…THE GRIMACE.

Constellation story


According to the Mayans, legend says that a long time ago in a galaxy far away a savage battle was raging between The predators who teamed up with the great blue star dragons of the night who fought against Orion the hunter. This savage battle has been raging since the beginning of time. During the battle many of the predators were either severely wounded or were killed by Orion the hunter. Orion the hunter was a master at killing the predators because he could fool the predators famous thermal vision they have their helmets. The way Orion does this is cover him self with mud which fools the predators vision.

After Orion had killed so many predators the leader of the predators finally decided to bring in the Great Blue Star Dragons of the Night. These dragons had the ability to fly at the speed of sound. Orion can not kill these Dragons because they are flying at the speed of sound, which opens up a chance for the predators to move in for the kill because Orion didn’t cover himself with mud. The leader of the predators is on one of the dragons when he gets flown off because Orion was able to kill one of the dragons.

The battle has been raging four centuries before there was a winner. The predators took heavy losses but they came out on top by injuring Orion and taking him captive. When they had Orion captive Orion told them that his son would avenge him and destroy the predator race. Once the predators heard this they immediately started preparing for the next battle.

Finally the day had came for the predators to face Orion’s son James. Before the battle was over James had taken out the entire army except the leader and his dragon. During this last battle The predator leader was able to injure James. Once he injured James , James no longer had his power. The leader of the predator then shot James right out of the galaxy.

After several hours of wandering the a distant planet without water James finally spots a half dried up river bed . After drinking water for several minutes he decides to continue walking and try to find some shelter. Finally after several grueling hours of enduring the intense heat James finally finds a cave. Once he finds this he is relieved because then he could rest and replenish his energy. After resting for several hours James then resumes his long and dangerous walk into the desert once again. But after days of wandering the vast desert James eventually dies from starvation and thirst.

From this day on the Predators and their fierce dragons have a reputation that makes them one of the most famous constellations in the night sky. The predators can be found stalking Orion the hunter throughout the night sky. They can be located by looking at Orion’s belt by following it straight back which leads you to the fearsome predator.

Many years ago, even before the beginning time there were three sisters. Cyra, Adela and Tara. They ruled what is now called the outer planets. Each one had a planet for their own and there was one that they all shared. It is now called Jupiter. Cyra owned Saturn. Adela owned Neptune and Tara owned Pluto. Since Cyra was the oldest she got to choose first. Then Adela and then finally Tara. The three sisters barely got into any fights with each other after they had finally settled on their new homes because they were all trained with the same methods. When they were little girls their parents let them be trained by the most powerful of all trainers. Athena the goddess of war. When Cyra was fully trained, Athena let her train her sisters while she had her own personal business to take care of.

That’s when they found the planets. After the younger sisters’ training was complete they found the planets and started new lives there. One day Athena came to Cyra asking for her help.

“Cyra! Please, oh please help me!! One of my warriors Darius has turned on me and wants me killed. The only way that I know how to fight him is with you and your sisters. Please Cyra! My student. My daughter. Help me!” she cried to Cyra so suddenly that she couldn’t come up with an answer. She didn’t know what to do at first but when her sisters came she realized what needed to be done. They had to take the warrior out.

Immediately they started to train again. First at the basics and then they got to the harder techniques. Athena then trained them on something that was very different from the girls’ previous knowledge. Making a sword invisible. They tried and tried but they couldn’t get the technique down. Athena gave up on teaching them the new skill and helped them freshen up on their other moves.

It was a very dark and gloomy day near the outer planets where the four of them stood waiting for Darius. Cyra was standing tall and Adela was stiff. Tara was thinking to herself about what she had accomplished the night before. While Cyra, Adela and Athena were talking about strategy she went off and started to train. She wanted to try the new technique that Athena had tried to teach them earlier. She focused so hard that her ears almost popped. It didn’t happen. Then she tried again. It didn’t happen again. Finally she just got so irritated that she threw the sword on the ground and stormed off. After a few steps had been taken she turned around and went back to retrieve her sword. But when she got there all she could see was the little scratch on the dirt that the sword had made when she threw it down. She slowly out stretched her hand and she felt it. The sword was invisible! She had done it! The youngest and the most doubtful sister had done something that the older two couldn’t! She decided not to tell anyone. Even Athena. For she feared that something might go bad if she did.

They were waiting there for what seemed like days when Darius finally arrived. He had a very strong build and had a bow draped over his chest. There were a container of arrows on his back and there were two swords at his sides. His armor was a black color and he was wearing a helmet that looked like eagle wings were on the side of it. Behind him was a great scorpion which later they realized was Scorpio. The one who had killed Orion before any of the girls were even born. Now he had betrayed his master as well.

“Darius. I see that you have brought company. How nice.” Athena said obviously not amused.

“Yes my lady. An old friend who also has a score to settle with you. As do I.” his voice was sharp and firm. He looked behind Athena to look at the girls. “So this is your army. A couple of girls are here to fight me? The most powerful warrior of all? Now that is a shame. To see three very beautiful young ladies get killed along with their master before their lives have even begun.” He said and he shook his head slowly.

It then began. Athena lunged at him drawing her sword quicker than the eye could see. All the girls could hear were the clashing of their swords. They were moving so fast that they couldn’t even be seen. When he knew that his new master was alright, Scorpio came lunging at the girls. Cyra was the first one to strike him. She had scraped the top of his head with her sword and even though it barely seemed to leave a mark the scorpion cried out a shriek of hatred. He snapped at Cyra and had gotten her leg when Adela had come with her sword drawn out.

She slashed a long red line that had blood rushing down from its gaping open point, across his claw. He quickly let go of Cyra’s leg and scurried back towards its master. Adela followed him while Tara rushed to her sister. Cyra was crying that she was alright, that Tara had to help Adela and Athena. Hesitantly Tara followed her sisters orders and rushed over to help Adela. But before she could even get over to her sister, Athena’s sword flew over her head and fell a ways beside her. She looked over at Darius who now had his sword on Athena’s neck and she was on her knees panting.

“Now you see that I am the better warrior out of all that you have trained my lady. Even poor Orion is no match for me.” He said and raised his sword over his head.
“NO!” Tara screamed before he could finish what he came here for. He just looked at her surprised that she was speaking to him in such a rude manner. She strode forward slowly so that he did not turn on her. She stopped next to Athena who was still on the ground. Tara glared at Darius and she focused on her own sword at her side. Athena looked over at her and she could tell what she was doing. Tara took a deep breath and she pulled her now invisible sword from her side and swung near Darius’s head.

He quickly met her sword with his. His eyes were wide in shock. He had never seen a young lady of Tara’s age achieve this skill so quickly. She had an advantage over him now. They started to battle. Every once in a while there were sparks flying off of Darius’s sword with his own rage building up inside of him. Soon Tara had him on his knees in front of her and both of their swords in an X shape around his neck. He glanced up at her in awe.

“How do you know this young one? This is such a difficult skill that even I couldn’t master.” He said not realizing that he himself was calling himself a bad warrior.

“Well. If you were the best warrior you would know how to achieve this skill.” She said and ran the swords through the sides of his neck. Tara then went over to Athena who was now standing over Cyra’s body on the ground. Adela was knelt beside her sister, soothing her as the pain was now getting more and more intense. When Tara reached them they all looked up at her in shock. They didn’t know how she, the youngest and most inexperienced of all, mastered that technique.

In honor of their bravery, the three sisters were awarded three stars in the sky. Cyra named hers Bristol for her mother. Adela’s was Rhea in honor of Zeus’s mother. Tara decided to name her star Darius. She named it after the warrior because every time someone would look into the sky they would see the star of the warrior who thought that he was the best of them all, but had gotten killed by a little girl who was very much less experienced than he was. The sisters three stars make out the heads of them in the sky. Cyra is on the left. Adela is on the right and Tara is in the middle.

The constellation is near the outer planets in memory of the three sisters homes and is only seen every 200 years. You can tell that it is the sisters when you take your finger and count 20 stars above the North star. When you see three stars in a row that are not exactly in equal size you have found the sisters.

In Greek times the Greeks were very stupid and thought that the world did not move. So they summon the powerful god of lasers, Laser. The Greeks want laser to do something to make the world rotate. Laser told them he will do something tomorrow night when everyone is at the center of Greece. The next night laser told everyone that his son IMA FIRIN MAH LASER will go into space and make it world move.

Off goes IMA FIRIN MAH LASER he starts his journey to make the world move. When he reached to space he turned into a constellation with Polaris the North Star. Then once he turned into a constellation he fired his laser so the world can move. The Greeks were happy. So whenever they want to find IMA FIRIN MAH LASER they just have to look for Polaris and there is the son of Laser.

Now the world is rotating thanks to the son of Laser. So now his heroism has made a very simple constellation of his honor.

The Palm Constellation

This constellation is quite hard to find. First you have to look into the sky with a telescope. Then you have to look for the north star and you would look to the right and there will be another star called Green. Green is one of the stars that is part of the Palm constellation. It is the brightest of the Palm constellation. There is another star next to Green that is called Cocoa and that is the biggest of them all and once you find those two stars you can then tell that it forms a palm tree.

All together there is 12 stars and there names are Cocoa, Green, Brown, Leaf, Ruffle, Shine, Chocolate, Cow, Pinky, Blinky, Sue, and Kinky. They are all different in their own ways even though they may all look the same. It is hard to find this constellation it blends in with all the other stars in the sky. There is a lot of stars in the constellation that’s why it is hard to see.

What makes this constellation so unique is the different names and they is something different about each one that you cannot see without a telescope. The brightest star stands out and that is one way that you can find the constellation. My constellation is located near the Jimmy Alpaca constellation and also near the Great Llama constellation. They are both very unique.

The story behind this constellation is that there were aliens that were found on earth in a UFO in the air. Those were their names and the astronaut that found them and then when he made this sharp discover he thought that they may have came from Mars and that their plan was to abduct someone. There are people saying that this wasn’t the first time they have spotted a UFO. But it’s the first time that they have seen this many aliens.

All in all, there have been many things spotted in space such as stars, UFO’s and a constellation that is a little hard to find. First, you have to find the brightest star and then follow along to the biggest one that is next to Green “the brightest” it’s called Cocoa. There were many aliens that were spotted and astronauts think that they were coming to abduct someone. The aliens looked very suspicious but they couldn’t even speak English.

It was early in the morning on July 17th, 2001. Irish dance girl was getting ready to leave for a competition, and if she wanted to make it there on time, she had to leave early. Her mother was rushing and telling her to get into to car, they were going to be late if they didn't leave soon. Irish dance girl grabbed all of her things and got into the car. Her mother was naming off things so she wouldn’t forget anything. Irish dance girl’s mother was the kind of mother where everything had to be perfect.

“Dress. Shoes. Wig,” she said, very rushed.
“Check, check and check. Let’s get out of here Mom!” cried out Irish dance girl. She didn’t want to be late for her very first Irish dance competition.
Irish dance girl looked out of the window, very bored. All there was to see was farmland, and black. It was very black. The only light source on the road was her mother’s headlights. Irish dance girl yawned. She was very tired. Slowly, she drifted off into a deep sleep.

The car came to a sudden stop. Irish dance girl jerked up from her sleep. It was light out and she was in a parking lot.
Her mother said, very excited,” Get up! We are here! This is so exciting!”
Irish dance girl unlocked her door and got out of the car. She popped the trunk, and grabbed her dress and shoes. Her wig was already on. Once they got inside, she had to register and get her number.
“Brenna Murphy,” she said to the lady,” my name is Brenna Murphy.”
“Okay, hold on a second,” said the registration lady. “Here you go! Good luck today!”
Irish dance girl grabbed her number and went off to her stage with her mom. She got her dress and shoes on and went with her mom side stage.
“Honey, you are going to do great today. If you get first, I will get you anything you want. I promise,” said her mom.
Mom crossed her heart, just like she always did. She never broke a promise, ever. Irish dance girl said good-bye to her mom and then went off to dance.
Irish dance girl finished her dancing. She came off stage, panting. She got her dress off, just so she can cool down.

“Hurry! They are going to announce awards soon!” explained Mom.
Irish dance girl quickly got her dress on and went to the awards stage. She made it just in time.
“In fifth place, Courtney Leigh Hahn. In fourth place, Sarah Kochiu,” announced the announcer.

Irish dance girl was not hearing her name. She thought that she didn’t
place. But, all of a sudden, the announcer called out first place.
“And in first place, from the Trinity Irish Dancers, Brenna
Murphy!” said the announcer, very excited.
Irish dance girl just stood there, very surprised. It was her very first competition, and she won! Shocked, she went up to the announcer. At the same time,
he placed a sash on her, and gave her a huge trophy. He lead her to the podium, right up at the top. When Irish dance girl reached the top of the podium, she stood there, smiling. She felt so powerful, on top of the world. Everyone was cheering and clapping, and chanting her name. Her best friends, who got 4th and 5th,were so happy for Irish dance girl. Everyone was.

As soon as all the racket calmed down, Irish dance girl got off of the podium and ran to her mom.
“OH MY GOODNESS! I am so proud of you darling!” said her mom, very excited,” you did amazing today!
Irish dance girl gave her mom a big hug, and thanked her for letting her be at the competition and for all the support. Happily, both of the girls walked off to the chairs to get their things. They grabbed their things, and went out to their car.
On the way home, Irish dance girl was thinking. Before her competition, her mom PROMISED that she would get anything for her. She was thinking of what maybe she could get. A new cell phone? A puppy? Maybe even a new dance dress? Irish dance girl thought for a bit, and then she came up with the perfect idea. She told her mom, and her mom agreed that she could get it.

“Okay, now step a little bit to the left, no to your left!”
Irish dance girl had a blind fold over her eyes. She was walking to her gift that she got. She was really excited.
“Okay, on the count of three, take off your blind fold. One, two, three!” said Irish dance girl’s mom.
Irish dance girl opened her eyes and looked up.
Happy and shocked, Irish dance girl said,” Wow, there it is! There’s my constellation!”

There it was, her very own constellation. That night, it was right over her house. The constellation was made up of 6 stars. They were shaped like her, leaping up off the ground.
“Honey,” said Irish dance girls mom,” what you going to name the stars? Those are a very important part of the constellation.”
“I want to name them Uron, Skeptaron, Flunkkaron, Toeron, Queron and Peltaron.”
“Why? They have nothing to do with the constellation.”
“It’s mine Mom, I can name them anything I want.”
“Okay, well lets go inside.”

Irish dance girl looked up at her constellation one more time. It was beautiful. It described who she was, and what she loves.
“iDance.”
Her mom asked,” What did you say?”
“iDance. I want to name my constellation that. I like it.”
“It’s a beautiful name, honey. It really is.”
“I know. Like I said before, it’s all mine.”
Both of the girls went inside, because they had a long day behind them. Irish dance girl said good-night to her mom and went into her room. She got ready, and then sat down by the window and looked up at her constellation one last time. She stared at it, observed it, and savored it. Irish dance girl really liked her constellation, and was glad that it was hers. Silently, she got into her bed and dozed off into a deep, peaceful, and happy sleep.
