Puff, the Magic Dragon
Desember 14, 2017Hello~ It's been a while since I don't post anything on my blog. So, I will post a children story. Today, I joined story telling competition at my school. Actually, it's not a big event. It's just internal competition after final exam.
The event allowed participants to write their own story. But, the genre must be Fantasy. So, I wrote this story to participate the event.
Puff, the Magic Dragon
Autumn Forest
Once upon a time,
lived a boy in the middle of forest, in a land called Honnah Lee. The boy’s
name was Jackie Paper. He lived with his brother who always busy working. Their
parents had gone away.
The lonely Jackie
wanted a friend and good toys. However, his brother always ignored Jackie
because he had to work hard to continue their life. Jackie was sad. He prayed
to God to give him a friend and good toys.
One night, Jackie
woke up from his tight sleep. He walked to the window because he saw something
strange in the forest. The autumn mist had fallen down and covered the forest.
Jackie was surprised
when he saw a silhoutte of big creature in the mist. The big creature had a
pair of huge wings and its skin looked scally.
“W-what is that?”
stuttered Jackie.
Secretly, Jackie went
out home and walked to the dark forest.
Evidently, the big
creature was a dragon! Even though the dragon looked scary, Jackie was not
afraid at all. He looked at the dragon
and asked innocently, “Who are you?”
The dragon turned his
head to the right and left, looked for who was talking to him.
“I am below here!”
shouted Jackie.
“Oh! There you are! My
name is Puff, the magic dragon!” replied Puff friendly.
“Why are you here?
Are you getting lost, Puff?” asked Jackie.
“No, I am not,
Jackie! I am here to give you a gift!” answered Puff. Then he gave Jackie a
silver box. Jackie opened the box and found out his dream toys that he always
wished for.
Jackie’s eyes
sparkled in the dark because he was so happy. “Thank you, Puff!” laughed Jackie
Paper.
“Your welcome!”
Then, Jackie stared
at Puff. “How do you know my name is Jackie?”
“Because I can hear
your voice from the sea,” said Puff.
“Awesome!” praised
Jackie.
“Hohoho…” Puff laughed
because he was glad to be praised. “It’s your time to go back home. Your
brother is looking for you now! Don’t make your brother worry!”
Jackie became sad
again. He didn’t want to leave his new friend.
“Don’t be sad,
Jackie. Tomorrow, I’ll be back here,” stated Puff encourage Jackie.
Then, the boy ran
home with joyful feelings. He couldn’t wait tomorrow and play with Puff, the
magic dragon.
On the next day,
Jackie went to the forest after his brother went to work. He called Puff and
without a long time, Puff came along. In the afternoon, Jackie could see Puff
had green scale and gigantic tail.
Puff invited Jackie
to the town. When they came, the Noble Kings and Princes bowed down to Puff
because Puff was a kind and nice dragon. He was loved by people.
Next day, Puff came
back and invited Jackie to the sea. Jackie was amazed by the wide sparkling
blue water. Above the sky, Jackie saw pirate ships sailing in the sea.
After they travelled
to many places, they sat down on a hill. Puff told Jackie that he was so lonely
because his family threw him away.
“Why does your family
treat you bad, Puff?” asked Jackie.
“Because of my
strange power to give kids a present,” answered Puff sadly.
Jackie sighed. “It’s alright,
Puff. I promise to be your friend forever.” The little boy patted Puff’s tummy
to encourage the dragon.
The days passed.
Everyday, Puff and Jackie spent their time together. They frolicked in the
autumn forest. Sometimes they travelled the world.
Time tickled the
clock. Years by years had passed. Puff was a long-life dragon, meanwhile Jackie
was not everlasting human. Someday, Jackie didn’t came anymore.
“Jackie, where are
you?” cried out Puff in the middle autumn mist. Still, Puff believed Jackie would
come back to him someday.
One night, Jackie’s
brother came to meet Puff with teary eyes. “Jackie has passed away because of
his sickness,” spoke him.
Puff could not
believe what he heard. Jackie had made promise to be his friend forever! How
could Jackie left him alone?
“Jackie will not play
along with you anymore. So please, go away,” said Jackie’s brother.
With a heavy step and
gloomy feeling, Puff left the autumn forest, the place when he spent the old
days with Jackie.
His head was bent
down in sorrow. His green scales fell like rain. Puff no longer wanted to give
presents to kids. Without his long-life friend, Puff could not be brave.
In the end, Puff
slipped into his cave for the rest of his life. Silently, he cried and always missed
his little friend.
THE END
