Hello, I’m Ryan. Oh sorry, meant to say Ryan Lugo, not to be confused with Ryan Chen. Anyway, I will be telling the legendary story of how I got the limited time golden Curry 3’s.

  To begin, we start the story off in Loveland,Colorado. It was a typically warm day, so some of my friends and I decided to get up and go to the Under Armour to get some fresh gear.

  “I can’t wait to smell that sweet sweet pancake smell that all the shoes have,” Dylan said.

  “Wait, hold up. So I am taking you guys to get so fresh gear and all you can think about is pancakes?” I said

  “What, I like pancakes,” Dylan said. Suddenly there was a deafening noise from my friend Joey.

  “Please don’t talk about breakfast in front of me please. I still haven’t had breakfast and you promised us Chick-fil-A!” a very cranky Joey said.

  “Wait do you guys see that?” I said

  “Nope,” hollered the other two.

  “It is a sign in front of Under Armour saying, Sale: 50% off all shoes. Limited time Golden Curry 3’s,” I read aloud.

  “We need to get down and go right now. I could buy so many shoes to the point of my room smelling like fluffy, delicious pancakes,”Dylan spoke.

  “No, Joey said, what am I going to eat? I’m going to starve.”

  “Joey, your hunger can wait. Do you even understand the meaning of Golden Curry 3’s?” As my friends and I  exited the car, we entered the store and see that a Mini World War 3 has broken out. The golden Currys right in the middle.

  “ What are we going to do?” asked Joey.

  “I don’t know, but I do know one thing, and that is we are going to get the Currys and leave victorious,”

  “Sounds like a plan,” said Dylan. “Ditto,”said Joey. “Alright, let's go!” I exclaimed. As we are walking we hear a ear-splitting sound.  KA-BOOM!

  “What was that?” I said, nervously. I looked around to see what caused the noised. I was a deadly confetti cannon, built to blow someone away with 14 tons of confetti.“Guys, it was that green confetti cannon!” I exclaimed.

  “There is only one thing to do. We have to take out the man controlling the cannon,” Dylan said.

  “Well, Joey said, are we supposed to do that. That thing has a 360 field of vision.”

  “Maybe we don’t have to take out the person controlling it we just have to cut the power,” I aforementioned.

  “I see the power cord!’ Dylan said.

  “Great work Dylan. We just need a dazzling distraction. I can cut the power since I am the

  fastest here. You guys will be the distraction.You just need to buy me enough time to get from the front of the store to the back!” I yelled as I started running.

  “All right got it,” the Dylan and Joey spoke in unison. “Wait, said Joey, I you don’t make it back I just want you to know that you left me without Chick-fil-A. Major party foul in my books.”

  “Really, in a time of life or death you are talking to me about food, not about how I am going to give my life, no not that, we are talking about food!” I said. Suddenly, we heard  another thunderous KA-BOOM again. I decided to go on the stealth mission. As I was making my way to the back, the distraction went off. I know knew I only had a little bit of time before it ended. I made it to the back, and everything went quiet, a little too quiet. I decided to use the opportunity to cut the power to the cannon. I made my way back, but not long before the cannon was restored power.

  “I need to make it back but there is no way. There are people everywhere.” I spoke to my self.     Little did I know, there were the supernatural superpowers watching over me. Out of nowhere, Hebe and Athena appeared. “What the!Athena! Hebe!” I said shocked. “We will only help you this once Ryan. Drink from my cup to gain the various powers of the gods,” Hebe told me. “And I will give you the strength of a thousand men,” Athena added. “Thank you,” I spoke to the gods

  Using my new powers, I power through the crowds and manage to reunite with my friends.

  “Guys we need to go for the Currys now,”I said.

  “Why, the cannon is still operational,”Joey spoke.

  “It doesn’t matter we need to grab the Currys and run,” I said. We turned to run for the Currys, but there was this figure that was looming over us. We decided to run and never look back.We got the Currys, the one thing I have been yearning for.They were made by gods and felt like a cloud.We ran out of there with confetti blast behind us.

  “Whoa, who did that!” I exclaimed.

  “I may or may not have rigged the confetti cannon to blow to we would look cool,” Dylan said.

  “Good work.” I said

  As we left the store, my friends decide to get some stuff for themselves. But not before Joey exploded and told me that he needed food. On the notion we decided to get some

  Chick-fil-a .

  “That was good , Joey said happily, let's go get some gear.”

  “Sweet Sweet pancake smell here I come,” Dylan said. We entered the store to find it littered with confetti.

  “We did good today,” I exclaimed

  “Yeah, I guess we did,” the two others said, admiringly. We struggle to find anything except a few shoes for Dylan and a couple of hoodies for me  and Joey. We loaded up the car and on the way home we talked about how crazy that visit to Under Armour was, of course my mom didn’t believe us, but me and my friends knew what happened. I also promised Joey that we would get food before we ever did something like that.

  “Obviously, Joey, no guarantees,” I said.

  “Why me!” Joey vociferated.
