=**Midsummer Night's Runaway**= Hi, my name is Hermia. I am going to tell you a story about my Midsummer Night's Runaway which happened January 15, 2005 on my property. That was just a few days ago. I am the daughter of Mark, who is a classy wealthy man who cares about no one but his family and can't stand me dating. I am dating Lysander, who is handsome, steadfast, and does not care about anyone but me. I would say he is kind of a bad boy. My friend Helena is kind young lady and is very loyal to everyone. She is in love with Demetrius. Demetrius is a nice and loyal young man and is in love with me, but I am not in love with him. He will do anything he can to get my father to let me date him.

It all started one morning when I woke up. I went to get my breakfast when my father came up to me and said, "I can't stand you dating Lysander. As a gift to me, for my wedding present, break up with Lysander and start dating Demetrius."

I told to him that he has to deal with it because if he couldn't I would run away. So I went upstairs and got dressed and told Lysander to come meet me in the garden, but when my father heard me tell that to Lysander, he called Demetrius and told him to eavesdrop on us.

Demetrius said,“Yes, I won't let you down." When my father was calling Demetrius, I was eavesdropping on him and I felt disappointed that he would do such a thing to me. Then I called Helena and told her,"Come and hang out with Demetrius while he is eavesdropping on us." I also told her about what my father had said to Demetrius. She said,"I would not miss out on an opportunity to be with him. I will be right over."

In the garden I caught up with Lysander. I told him about Demetrius eavesdropping on us and then he got mad. I told him,"Do not get mad but go along with it." He said,"Fine," and then said, "The course of love never did run smooth." Then we heard a rustle in the bushes and knew it was them. We pretended like we didn't hear anything and just walked away. In the bush Demitrius was telling Helena,"Be quiet and go away." She said, "No, I want to stay with you." Then he ran away from her, and then Helena said,“Wait for me." Once Helena caught up with Demitrius we saw them go into a bush. Then we got tired of them and walked up to the bush and told them,"Stop following us and to mind their own business.

Then we ran away as fast as we can. As we were turning the corner we caught a glimpse of Demetrius and Helena running after us. Then I told Lysander,"We should go into the maze and run away from them.

He said," That is a good idea, it would work perfectly."

Once we turned the corner to enter the maze they saw us and said,“Don’t go in there it is impossible to solve." They came running after us in disbelief that we went inside the maze. We were running around so long that I forgot what time it was.

Then I said,“I think we lost them."

Later on, I said,"I am getting really hungry, did you bring any food," and then Lysander said,"I didn't bring any food because I did not know how long we were staying out here." Then he said,“There are some berries that we can eat right here, but that is all." So, we ate some and they were really delicious. I wanted some more, but we ate all of them.

On the other side of the maze Helena was freaking out. She had never been lost before. She was freaking out so much that Demetrius had to knock her out with a punch. He was also getting hungry so he ate the same berries that we ate. He was wondering why he agreed to go and spy for the king. He asked himself maybe, just maybe if he started dating Helena maybe Hermia would get jealous of him. As the sun started to set he said," Goodnight Helena," and went to sleep. Meanwhile Lysander and Hermia were already asleep from eating all those berries.

The next day Helena and Demitrius woke up. Demitrius said,"Hello beautiful, how are you doing this fine morning?" Helena was surprised. She was wondering why Demitrius was acting this way. Then she realized that it was the berries that they ate. The thing was why was it not affecting her, but she didn't want to let this moment go down. She felt like the happiest person in the world. On the other side of the maze Hermia just woke up and left a note that she is going to find a way out. Once she left Lysander woke up and read the note. He said,"Why would she do such a silly thing like that." Then he set out to go and find her, but in the other direction. After a while Lysander saw Helena and instantly fell in love with her. A few moments later Hermia saw Lysander and Demitrius fighting over the love of Helena. Then I asked Helena,"What is happening," and she said,"The berries that they ate make them fall in love with the first person that they see, which is me." So then I told her,“Maybe we have to give them each one berry to make them come back to normal." So we both ran to find some berries and threw it at their mouths. The berries flew like birds, and got in their mouths. We waited a moment, and then they came back to normal. I told them,"We were so happy that they were back, but we have to go."

After a few minutes in we heard a strange noise that sounded like music. It was music. It was coming from a little marching band. I asked them, "What are you guys doing in this maze and where are you going to?" They said,"We live in this maze because we help people who are lost. We are headed to the King's wedding." Then I realized my father is getting married today, and I asked them,"Can you help us get there please?" They all said, "Yes, we would love to." So we followed them all the way to the wedding. I said, "Thank you," to them and they said, "Anytime." When I saw my father I ran up to him and said, "I am so sorry. Please forgive me." He said,"It is fine. I know you love me and that is all that matters. I am also allowing you to stay with Lysander." "Really?" I asked. Then I ran to go tell Lysander after I thanked my father. Lysander was so happy. Then he said, “The course of love never did run smooth." I also felt happy for Helena because she got Demitrius as her boyfriend. We all lived happily ever after.
