One day William went outside of the Bloom’s new house while the movers were bringing new furniture in and William saw a swing set. William wanted to see how high he could swing on it but the legs had already been released from the cement so while William was on it his weight was pulling the frame back and fourth. Finally, the swing set plunged forward sending William flying towards a white fence where he would certainly hit and get very hurt. Edward grabbed William out of the air and saved his life… again.

William says that he is flying toward Heaven (The White Fence) because he thinks he will die if he hits it. He then says that Edward grabbed him and pulled him down to Earth safely.
