You’re walking with Cade to school. You’re talking about what loads of schoolwork you still have to do and arguing over whether the big Science Test is today or tomorrow, and then all the sudden he just stops. He gets down on one knee, closes his eyes with his hands forming a triangle in front of his face. He’ll probably start whispering quietly to himself. It might even sound like he’s arguing with himself, and maybe he is, no one really knows for sure. It could last for a few minutes or even a few hours. One time he did this on the way to school with Blake three years ago when they were in third grade. One minute they were arguing about which one of them would win in a fight if they had to tie their hands and feet and had to stay ten feet apart. The next minute Cade was in his trance. Blake tried to talk to him, but he didn’t hear anything. Blake even started yelling about bears attacking and Cade still kept still, whispering to himself. What unusual dreams, interests, or abilities do you have? Leave a comment below. Cade once saw something mysterious in the hills west of Cashes Dade. He saw mysterious lights flash. After three hours, he finally stood up, and made this prediction:
“It will begin with mysterious disappearances in the field
Look at how all the farmers are getting the same yield
The colour white will soon be worth so much more
Wearing the colour black with pride could start a war
Look for the glittering ripples flashing across the sea
Soon all the students will wish they could become free
Aliens will invade our world in time to save us from illness
We will place our hope in them to relieve our distress
Dark storms are coming for us in glittering, flashing waves
They’ll overpower our schools sending failing students to the graves
Students with intense determination will have dark dreams at night
Yet they will give aliens nightmares about the mysterious distant light”
