A Spoooooky Story

Leon crawled jumped into bed on Saturday morning and volunteered to tell Minh and me a spooky story.

I recorded the 5-minute story and transcribed it. Imagine it told in a spooooky voice with a flashlight under the chin:

The fire dragon could spray out 100 meters of fire! When the dragon sprayed out fire, the other people run away from the dragon because they are not gonna like the fire. The fire is really hot, all the way to 55 seconds to burn! And if they touch it before 55 seconds, it’s gonna be a little bit hot. But if they touch it after 55 seconds, it’s gonna be BURN from ever and ever and ever! So if you put your hand at 55 seconds, don’t touch it, because you don’t know if it’s going to be after or before.

Let’s learn about the people now. The people in the story had to run away because they did not like the fire. The fire, remember? It was 55 seconds to burn. WELL, the fire can explode or burn or break. If it gets on the road, it will definitely break. Or in a house. Burn, burn down!

The knight. The knight is a mysterious, trying to fight the dragon to save the people that are scared of the dragon. The dragon is ’bout 700 powers inside its body. If it touches you, it’s gonna be [?], and you’re gonna be burned anything from the dragon’s fire powers or any power that he has. If he has fire, each power in his body is gonna be 200. Or it can be maybe, like… any else number. But it can’t be under 100. It can be 100, definitely.

If knight touches the fire, the knight will be burned too. If the dragon touches the fire, he will still be alive. But if he touches guns, he will have less powers or less energy.

“How fast can the dragon run?” is what we are asking now. How fast he can run is up to maybe… 200. Or bigger, like a billion. BUT — remember from the fire, the fire breaks up, it will be burned.
