A FEAR OF COMMUNISM

The China Crew (the Jensen and Belnap girls) returned to China to do the markets up right this time. We were shopping our guts out, frantically looking for purses because we only had one hour left in the country, when our tour guide David regretably told us we were trapped. The communist government of China was keeping us as POW's. Were were essentially enslaved in China (think Avery in Korea on 30 Rock). China was concerned as to why we returned to their country so soon. They thought we had an angle or political reason for returning - NO, we just wanted more Chinese cheap crap. We tried to secretly plan ways we could get our passports back from the people keeping us there and run away. The Belnap girls decided one day while David was out, to make a run for. He caught us trying to ditch but we kept running. We managed to get to the airport before any guards got to us. We didn't bring any of our shopping back with us, for fear it would slow us down. By some miracle, they let us on the plane without realizing we were on the never-release-them-from-communist-China-list. When our plane landed in America we realized quickly that the commies were on our trail, chasing us. All of a sudden we were at my parents house in Kaysville trying to whisper to dad how we made it home. Then...a knock on the door...and someone entered.The Chinese were there for us! There to take us back. We all hid under a bed and sent dad to deal with them. All I could think about while being under that bed was how could I communicate to Allison how we were able to escape so she can do the same. Then, I awoke. A miracle.

I'm pretty sure this is the communist version of "Donald Duck in Naziland" done by Walt Disney in 1942. If you haven't seen it, go find it on youtube. You will completely understand my dream but with a Chinese twist.
