My Trip on a Lego Spaceship

Once I was in a Lego spaceship and I was lost but it was awesome. My friend Hunter started a war and there were 100,000 of them and we bet them. I saved the day with Hunter and we flew away in the Millennium Falcon. We flew to my master and his name is Kylo Ren. He has a red

Lightsaber.

Kylo Ren turned bad when he was good. We got out our lightsabers and started fighting, Then Chewy came with a bow and arrow on his back. And we versed all the stormtroopers.

And we came along and met some old friends called Hans Solo and the Queen.

And then we went back home and helped some of Chewy’s friends. They are fighting the rest of the stormtroopers who are still out there.
