“叮……铃铃……”
清晨,悠悠像往常一样被熟悉的闹钟声吵醒。他叹了口气,很不情愿地从床上爬了起来,满脑子琢磨着不去上学的借口。
“妈妈,爸爸,我的头很疼。”悠悠一边穿衣服一边叫着,“我想我可能生了很重的病,今天不能上学了。”
悠悠嚷嚷了半天,妈妈爸爸也没有回答。
让悠悠奇怪的是,每天早上,他的妹妹依依一起床,就会到他的房间玩耍一番,可是今天依依怎么没来?
难道依依生病了?
悠悠走出房间,在房子里转了一圈,房子安静得出奇----没有以往的做饭声,说话声,电视声……爸爸、妈妈、妹妹都不见了?!
悠悠赶紧给爸爸、妈妈的手机打电话,可是电话怎么打都打不通。
悠悠着急了,他想到了他的邻居王阿姨,自言自语道,“或许阿姨知道我的爸爸、妈妈、妹妹去哪里了?”
然而让他失望的是,王阿姨家也没有人……
悠悠很担心。他背上书包,打算去学校寻求老师的帮助,可是当他来到马路上的时候,发现平常喧嚣热闹,车水马龙的马路突然变得异常安静。路上没有车辆,没有小贩,甚至没有行人!
整个世界,似乎只有悠悠一个人!
悠悠很害怕,他不知道一夜之间到底发生了什么,为什么街道上没有了人。他冲向学校,期盼可以见到他的同学,他觉得只要能够见到他的同学,就算一辈子被同学们嘲笑,他也不会难过了。
然而,学校里也没有人,诺大的操场上,只有悠悠孤零零的一个人。
一上午的奔跑已经让他很疲惫了。他不知道该如何是好,含泪瘫坐在校园里的一株老槐树下,想着不知所踪的家人,朋友,痛哭了起来。
“悠悠,你怎么了?”一个苍老的声音从身后传来。
悠悠错愕地扭头,背对着阳光,隐隐地看到一个长得很高很高的老人站在身旁!悠悠惊讶地站起身,迎着阳光,眯着双眼才看清那个老人的长相----满脸的皱纹就像树皮一样,长长的白色的眉毛遮住了双眼,混着长长的白色胡子一直拖到地上。
“你……你是谁?”悠悠吓了一跳,不禁朝后退,颤抖着声音问道,“你怎么会知道我的名字?是你把我的爸爸、妈妈、妹妹、和所有人抓走的吗?”
“孩子,你别怕,我不会伤害你的。我之所以知道你的名字,是因为是你告诉我的。”那个苍老的声音慢慢说道,“你还记得这颗老槐树吗?那年他生了病,很多人都说要把他据掉,是你带着同学们跟老师建议保留下这棵树的。后来你经常给树浇水,跟他聊天,跟他做朋友……而我,就是那棵树。我已经940岁了,你是我近些年来交到的最好的朋友了。”
“你说……你是树?!”悠悠吓了一跳!他曾经在神化传说里看到过树精的故事,没想到竟然是真的?!
老树精忧虑地点了点头,慢慢说道,“这里的人们不是被我抓走的,而是突然被吸入了另一个世界。”老树精抬头看着远方的天空,继续说道,“创世之神正在打造另一个世界,叫‘彩云之巅’。这个世界在遥远的天空之路的最上端。想要建造‘彩云之巅’是很不容易的,需要很多的人力物力,所以创世之神带走了这个世界的人们。”老树精沉吟了一下,慢慢说道,“或许这个世界的人们还不足以建造‘彩云之巅’,他还会需要更多来自其他世界的人们……”
“其他世界?难道地球除了这个世界还有其他的世界?”悠悠不解的问道,“‘彩云之巅’是什么?创始之神又是谁?”

“Ring, ring...” went the bell.
Yoyo woke up early in the morning as usual. He carefully slipped out of his bed and let of a big sigh. He’s head was trying to think up an excuse of not going to school.
“Daddy, mommy my head really hurts” said Yoyo when he was changing into his clothes.“I might have a serious sickness, so today can I not go to school?”
Yoyo murdered for a long time, however there was no reply by his parents!
Something that buzzed Yoyo the most was that his little sister Yiyi usually comes to his room every morning to play, however today he didn’t see her.
Perhaps she is sick, wondered Yoyo.
Yoyo went out of his room and checked the whole house. There was neither sound of neither cooking nor talking nor television sound which was extremely odd.
“Daddy? Mommy? Yiyi?”Yoyo cried out but there was no answer.
Yoyo tried to call his parents immediately, however there was no signal.
Yoyo was very worried, suddenly he remembered about his neighbor Mrs. Annabelle, Yoyo thought Mrs. Annabelle would know where his parents are.
Yoyo went to Annabelle’s house, but she wasn’t there.
Yoyo started to feel anxious, so he was planning to go to school to ask help. However when he rushed to the road, surprisingly, he found out that the road was very quiet. There was not even a person in sight.
It seemed like Yoyo was the only person in this world.
Yoyo was really scared; he didn’t know what had happened overnight and why there was nobody on the road. He rushed to his school hoping to find his classmates, he thought that if he can find his classmates, no matter how much they laugh at him, he won’t be sad.
When he arrived at his school, Yoyo had found out that he was the only person there. In such a big playground, he felt very lonely.
Yoyo was exhausted after rushing about all morning. Eventually he found a tree to lie back and have some rest. Yoyo soon bursted into tears thinking about his family and friends.
“Yoyo, are you okay?”
Yoyo suddenly heard an old man’s voice.
Yoyo suddenly turned around, the sun beams were so bright that Yoyo couldn’t even see who asked him the question. He then rubbed his eyes and saw a shadowy figure that turned out to be a really really tall old man! His eyebrow’s were pale white and so long that it was covering his eyes. He also had wrinkles all over his face and he had a whitish grey beard that was nearly as tall as himself.
“Who who are you?” Yoyo stopped himself from screaming. He started to back off further away from the old man, and asked in a shivering voice,“How did you know my name? Are you the one holding my parents and my sister captive?”
“Kid, don’t be scared. I won’t hurt you. The reason why I know your name is because you told me that. Remember the time when the tree you were lying at just the got sick? The whole school decided to cut it down because it was getting moldy and had a lot of bugs in it. You and your mates at school came up with away to persuade your teacher to not cut the tree down. Until that day, you watered it and told it stories that happened throughout the day. However you might have not noticed that I was the tree that you helped out. Now I am 940 years old. So today on, you were one of my closest friends.”
“You say that you are a TREE?!” Yoyo was shocked! He heard about this in a fairytale but he was surprised to find out that it was real!
The tree demon slowly nodded his head and said,“I wasn’t the one that stole the people from this world. They were sucked into a different world by mystery shiny specks. This world is called the Heavenly World. It was made by Pharaoh Exodus and it is at the top of the Silver Road of Heaven.”
The tree demon continued to talk “However even for Pharaoh Exodus it is not easy to accomplish. So that is why the people got sucked into the specks of dust, it was to help Exodus complete the world The Heavenly World. I was guessing that the people in this world are not enough help to build The Heavenly World so Exodus might take more people from the other worlds and you must stop it.”
“Another world?” Yoyo asked surprisingly,“does that mean that there are more worlds than this one in the universe and what is The Heavenly World? Plus, who is Exodus?”
