Topic > The Dragon - 813

As the dragon's menacing head lowered to finish the job on the knight, the knight made one final move but it was too late. The smell of fresh blood immediately filled the air. The news spread like wildfire. The Knight of Willington was dead, stiff and cold. His name was Darius Biff. He had a son, Will Biff. He was eight years old when his father died and was as sad as a puppy left alone to die. Will from then on was terrified by the thought of dragons. Their giant wings and long black claws devoured his soul. After his father's death, Will was moved to an orphanage to live out the rest of his childhood. The children teased him for being scared of dragons, but inside everyone in the village was horrified by a dragon that could devour the greatest knight the kingdom had ever seen. Will grew like a sunflower. He was easily the tallest child in the orphanage. The children never stopped making fun of everything different about him. They asked him: "How is the weather up there?". Will never liked socializing with other people. They always made fun of him. Will endured teasing until he was 13. The sun burned and Will burned his skin. The moment a little boy came up to him and said, “Why are you chopping wood when you should be in the pigsty where you belong.” Will had enough. His anger towards all those people had grown like air in a balloon. He pulled his arm back and his fist was a bull and the child's face was a matador. The shot was heard throughout the courtyard. The children turned their heads faster than light. The boy was on the ground, stunned. Will had made a statement that everyone could clearly respect. For the next five years Will was… at the center of the card… making a swipe with his giant, sharp claws. Will's horse backed away. The dragon lowered its giant head towards Will. This time Will was ready for this attack and raised his sword. The dragon came down with his teeth separated. The dragon stopped when it reached Will. The dragon moved its head and let out a terrifying scream. The screech sounded like a bat being eaten by a banshee that had emitted its screech. The dragon's limp body descended and shook the earth with surprising force. Will was frozen, not with fear but with disbelief. The dragon's colossal jaws were inches away from tearing him and his horse apart. He trotted towards the head and dismounted. The head was too big to take home, so he stuck his hand into the eye socket and plucked out the eye. Then Will tore the sword from the dragon's palate. Will got back on his horse and rode off..
