Dragon and the people

Dragon and The People
Once Upon a time, in a far away green valley, there lived hundreds of people working and playing. The kids would run around like playful little puppies running around the green, beautiful valley, digging holes and playing games. The men would work everyday like diggers and cranes. The women would stay at home knitting and cleaning. There was long, spiky green grass and long, beautiful flowers swaying and dancing in the cool breeze.
One day, a giant fierce dragon stomped angrily across the village. The dragon had an ocean blue and emerald green scaly body, with his lightning yellow and fiery red tail behind him. He had sharp, dirty teeth that hadn’t been brushed for years and above his big, dark hairy nostrils were big eyes that glared at people. The ground shook and cracked.
“Ahh! Ahh!” Everyone screamed. There was only one boy who knew what to do. He and his friends had a plan. They knew how they could save the town. They put a pot of boiling water under a fake person they made. Then they heard stomping. The dragon stepped on it and ran away. They never saw him again.
One day, many years later, a girl found a strange egg in her garden. She stared at it for hours. Suddenly, she saw a crack. “Mum, dad, come and look!” She shouted. Her parents came running out and stared at it.”It’s a dragon egg!” Her parents exclaimed. Then, a tiny paw came out, and slowly, a cute baby dragon was crawling around the garden exploring. He was jumping around playfully and nibbling the fresh, juicy green grass.
Out of no where, a fierce dragon came back again. He was sniffing around. Fortunately, a big rainbow appeared in front of him. He didn’t notice the tiny elf in the middle holding a wand, so he walked through. Then the dragon turned into a rock.
Soon people discovered that there was no more water in their village, and some people died.” The only way you can get water is to go to the city covered in clouds and get a potion.”Said the queen in a meeting.
“I will go, “said a girl. “Ok,” Said the queen. Soon the girl arrived at the city covered in clouds. She went to an old woman’s house and the old woman gave her the potion. Then, the girl was on her way back, but she soon got stuck in some sticky clouds.

“Yum!” She said as she soon realised the clouds were candyfloss. She pocketed the potion and took a day to get to the dragon rock, she poured the potion into the end of the wand and waved it at the little elf. He ran away as fast as lightning. Then, the girl waved the wand at the dragon and he woke. He had something in his paws and dropped it onto the grass. It grew into a big flower that sprayed water, and it started to give everyone water.

The villagers were so happy that they built a big tower, and every year they would go and celebrate the day that the dragon gave them water.
