Chapter 1, The Dragon
Once upon a time, there was a dragon. His scales were the color of a peacock feather. The dragon was the biggest dragon in the world. Compared to a human, his nails were two feet long. And his feet were so big, if he tried to step on a human, he couldn't kill it. His foot was so big that there was a crack so a person wouldn't get crushed.
The dragon lived with his owner. His owner was named Mr. Fierce. The man was ... was the ... biggest man in the world. And the tallest man. He was 13 feet tall. His muscles were as big as one hundred and sixty billion bouncy balls. He was the strongest man in the world, as well. When he stomped, he could knock out a group of people. When he picked up a person by the hand, he could crunch it accidentally and whenever that happened, he would always hear little squeaks like "yeeeeaaaa-ooowwwwwccchhhhhhhh!"
The man was a Dragon-rider. His name was Fierce. And his dragon's name was Black Hurricane. There were many other dragons, but Black Hurricane did not know any. He wished he could know dragons. Black Hurricane was a well-known tough dragon, but he wished he had more tough dragons to be with him. Although he was very tough and he was the biggest of all dragons, he wasn't the strongest of all dragons. The strongest of all dragons' name was Volcano Rock.

Chapter 2, The Second Dragon
Volcano Rock's owner was big, but he wasn't as big as Mr. Fierce. But he was a little stronger than Mr. Fierce. Volcano Rock's owner's name was Mr. Rock-buster. He was well known because he fought so well.
One day, Mr. Fierce and Mr. Rock-b met up. When they met up, a terrible fight that raised dust went on all day and half of the night. Finally, a couple people woke up and they out-fought Mr. Rock-b. That night, while the bruised Mr. Fierce was sleeping, Black Hurricane heard big booming footsteps, but nobody was awake except for Black Hurricane. Black Hurricane went outside. He put his ear on the ground. He kept listening to the footsteps. And then they stopped. Suddenly they went on. Then they stopped again. Black Hurricane waited for eight hours. He waited until the footsteps started back up. The sun was rising now. Black Hurricane never noticed that he had stayed up half of the whole night.
Black Hurricane when back into the barn where he slept. When he woke up, he found himself in the pond and Mr. Fierce was standing beside him with a big jug. Mr. Fierce said, "what is the matter with you?"
Black Hurricane was a talking dragon. Then Black Hurricane said, "I woke up last night to the sound of big booming footsteps. They stopped, then they went on, then they stopped. I waited for eight hours and then I went back to bed. And now I find myself in the pond."
Mr. Fierce said, "I found you in the barn. I tried to wake you up, but I couldn't. I even tried shooting my cannon. Finally I just thought I'd throw you in the pond and throw water on you. And at last, that worked."
After that, they had a nice day and they worked a little and then they went back to sleep.

Chapter 3, The War
That night, when Mr. Fierce was sleeping, Black Hurricane woke up to more footsteps. This time he didn't go outside and put his ear on the ground. This time, he just went outside and started flying over the village. Suddenly, he saw a band of people. And in front, was Volcano Rock. He noticed the people had spears and swords. On Volcano Rock's back sat Mr. Rock-b. At once, Black Hurricane started roaring. He woke up the whole village except his master. Then he roared in his master's window, "roooooooaaaaaaarrr!" His master jumped out of his bed, he grabbed his sword and stuck his sword out the window. Black Hurricane jerked back. Then Mr. Fierce noticed it was just his dragon. Mr. Fierce said, "why did you roooooaaaaaar in my window?"
"Because there is a band of people down there. They have swords and spears and Volcano Rock with his master on his back is in front."
Mr. Fierce said, "Quick, wake up the village!"
"I already did!"
"Tell them to get the weapons!"
"Yes, sir!" said Black Hurricane.
Suddenly he felt heat. He turned around. First he yelled, "get your weapons!!" and then he blew fire at Volcano Rock. The force of the heat knocked Mr. Rock-b off. Suddenly Rockbuster drew his sword. And all of a sudden, Mr Fierce jumped out of his window. When he hit the ground, Mr. Rockbuster yelled, "surround him!" and then all his troops surrounded him with Volcano Rock in the air, with Mr Rockbuster on his back.
Once again, Black Hurricane blew a bigger blast of fire. That bigger blast of fire was so big, the heat of it knocked all six hundred billion kajillion troops down. Some of them died from the heat. Some of them died from the so-big impact when they hit the ground. There was good news and bad news. The good news was Mr. Rockbuster only had 14 troops left. The bad news was from the big, big blow of fire Black Hurricane shot at the people, he wasn't able to breathe any more fire.
Suddenly, Black Hurricane froze because he knew if he couldn't breathe any fire, what that meant. It meant that he had to eat 160 billion habaneros. The problem was, there were no habaneros in the area. He had travel a mile to get them. All of a sudden, he had an idea. He started swinging his claws, hitting the ground, slicing at the air. His first blow knocked Mr. Rockbuster down. He landed on a brick that was lined with spikes. When he landed, the spikes didn't break, but the brick did. Mr. Fierce called out, "maybe we should call him block-buster!"
Suddenly Mr. Fierce heard wheels. Black Hurricane was dragging his canon. Mr. Fierce ran over to it, he put in a canon ball, he lit the fuse and he put a couple more canon-balls in and then, "booom, booooom, booooooooooom! cabammmm!"
That was the end of those troops, and that spot, and the soil in that spot.
All the men were dead except for Volcano Rock.
That night, everybody went back into their houses and waited till the sunrise. They slept a little longer. Then they woke up, not just to Black Hurricane, but everybody in the village woke up to the sounds of two pairs of big banging footsteps. Suddenly, everybody went outside with their spears and swords. There was a problem. Mr. Fierce didn't wake up. Even when the canon was shot and a roar was blasted through the window. It seemed they would not have any Mr. Fierce. Suddenly Black Hurricane saw the group of fighters go back to their houses and lay back down in their beds. He said, "what happened? Is one of those dragons magical? Is one of those dragons putting a spell on?"
Suddenly he didn't just see Volcano Rock, he saw the most smallest dragon but the most toughest dragon. It turned out Volcano Rock was not the toughest dragon. Suddenly one man came out. A tough man. Many spells had been put on him but they never affected him. He started throwing spears at the small dragon. This time the dragon didn't blow fire back, it just puffed at him and then the dragon fell dead.
Now suddenly, lava began to pour out of Volcanoe Rock's mouth. Suddenly the man, that no spells affected, ran back to his house and told all his family to go underground to the metal bubble they had. Suddenly the lava started seeping into cracks in the ground. Then the ground started to turn into big pillars that were slowly growing up. Right where Volcano Rock and Black Hurricane were standing, a big pillar rose up. But there was no lava on the ground. Slowly, lava began to rise out of the cracks. And more lava than Volcano Rock had poured out from his mouth!

Chapter 4, The Victory
The lava kept getting deeper. Suddenly Volcano Rock with his huge claw, knocked Black Hurricane off the pillar. Black Hurricane fell into the lava. Silence came over that place and a couple bubbles rose from the lava. Suddenly, Black Hurricane rose from the lava with no wounds or anything. All that happened is when he came out onto the pillar, he started drooling lava. The lava went to the middle of the pillar, it split the pillar. Suddenly Black Hurrican blew a ball of lava at Volcano Rock. The lava ball hit Volcano Rock's head. It knocked his head half off! Then suddenly Volcano Rock fell into the lava. From that day on, Volcano Rock was never seen again.
One day, Mr. Fierce was granted with a pure gold sword and Black Hurricane was granted with a huge solid gold dragon.

Chapter 5, The War Ends
One day, when Black Hurricane and Mr. Fierce were having supper, they heard more big footsteps. They went outside. The funny thing was, it was the president, Mr. Buk. He was on stilts. On the bottom of the stilts were huge fake dragon feet. The president was laughing. All of a sudden, Black Hurricane and Mr. Fierce were laughing, too. The President told them both, "Congratulations!". Black Hurricane and his owner said, "Thank you!"

Chapter 6, The Celebration
That day, they had a celebration. These are the drinks they had. They had beer, orange juice, milk, apple juice, moonshine, water and ale (which is from Robin Hood). These are the foods they had: chicken, turkey, cheesy potatoes, roast beef, chicken wings, barbecues, sweet potatoes and even a little bit of seafood. I said a little bit because the sea is very far away because they do live in Arkansas. Soon, when Mr. Fierce was 100 years old and, don't you know dragons can live really long, Black Hurricane was 1 million, they both died. That is the end.

  1. Isaac,
    This is an amazing story and I am very surprised that Mr Fierce did not have Black Hurricane fly to the ocean to get more seafood, since we all know that the author likes seafood (especially shrimp). It is a good thing your Mom/teacher is a great typist!!
    Love you, Papau Ken
