There was a boy named Nortin who was going on a trip to England. Nortin boarded the plane and then–whoosh—the plane flew up into the clouds. Nortin was very nervous about what could happen. Would the plane crash? Fall out of the sky? Anything could happen. Nortin was so scared, he fainted.
When he awoke, he was floating and then he saw an angel.
“Wow, where am I?” he asked the angel.
“Nortin, I must warn you,” said the angel. “When you wake, you will find yourself in the Atlantic Ocean.”
“Wait, what do you…”
It was too late. When Nortin woke up, he was floating in the Atlantic Ocean. He looked up and saw the plane flying right over him.
“Nooooo!” said Nortin in a stunned voice.
As he sank into the water, he died, and then he found himself in Heaven. He saw the angel again.
“Hi, Nortin,” said the angel.
“Why am I here?” asked Nortin.
“I chose you from all of the other passengers on the plane to bring you to heaven, just like I was chosen from a plane many years ago. The same thing happened to me that happened to you. That’s what makes us special.”
