[ WP ] The first-grade teacher has a most unusual field field trip planned for the class

Mrs. Franklin looked out at her class. 
 
 `` Alright, students. Please pass up your permission slips.'' 
 
 All the little toddlers passed their permission slips to the front of the class to be collected by Mrs. Franklin. 
 
 She flipped through each sheet, then noticed something odd. 
 
 `` Billy, where is yours?'' 
 
 `` My parents do n't want me going there. They say it's dark territory.'' Billy whined. 
 
 `` Well, they'd be right.'' Mrs. Franklin said in almost a sing-song manner. She reached into her desk and pulled out a small remote. With the press of a tiny red button a hole opened up right under Billy. He was instantly out of sight and his screams faded in a matter of seconds. The hole closed. 
 
 `` Now, students, please line up single file by the door.'' 
 
 The class lined up and proceeded through the door into the shiny, black hallway. The walk was long and melancholy as they made their way to the exit porthole. Each individual student passed through a medal detector then onto the B.U.S. 
 
 Once they were all boarded on the B.U.S. the attendants scuttled down the aisle and fastened the arm and leg clamps so as not to cause any escapes. Mrs. Franklin sat calmly in the pilot's seat and pressed a few buttons. With a loud *bang* and *whirr* they were off, soaring through the heavily polluted sky to the destination of their dreams. To the destination of everyone's dream. This was their pilgrimage. This was their savior in the decaying world beneath. Soon they will all reach paradise.
