Every School Has Dragons

Anonymous


Once upon a time there lived a child. She lived in a magical forest surrounded by dragons. They usually flew over her and didn’t give her a thought, so she never thought much about them. One day she was in school and she got stumped. She didn’t know what to write. She was a little scared to ask for help. On the way home she got stopped by a dragon with scales the color of parchment and eyes the color of ink. The dragon wouldn’t let her pass. She tried asking nicely but it wouldn’t budge so she went back to the school. The next day she got stumped in history. Again she went home but this time she got stopped by two dragons, the one from yesterday and a new one with scales that created a tapestry of history. On the third day she got stopped by a dragon that smelled of acid and the other two. On the fourth day she got stopped by a dragon practicing a song and the other three. On the fifth day she got stopped by a dragon playing the drums and the other four dragons. Finally the child got fed up with the dragons, so she went to the school and asked the teachers for help. Finally she went home with no dragons blocking her way and fell asleep.
