The Barbeque Dragon



Dilly The Dragon final by sara-radio


When Dilly the dragon roared, flames came out of his mouth.

Then, it started to rain and Dilly got cold.There was no roar.
No flames.

"My fire is out!" he said. "I must breathe air to make air.
There is plenty of fresh air in the forest!"

In the forest there was a notice- BEWARE OF FIRE.
"Very wise," said Dilly. "But I need my fire!"
Another notice said - FIRE CAUSES DAMAGE.
"True," said Dilly. "But I NEED my fire!"

Another notice said- PUT FIRES OUT! Poor Dilly felt so cold!

"No fires, today!" a voice was saying. "It is too cold and damp!"

"So, can we have our barbecue party, Lina?" a girl called out.

"I don't think so, Penny," said Linda.
"It is raining again! Quick! We must shelter in the forest!"

Dilly went over to the barbecue.It was still warm.
He breathed in, feeling warmer inside. Just as the rain stopped
- R-OA-OA-RR! - Flames came out of his mouth!

"What was that?" a boy called out. "It sounded like thunder!" Everyone went to see.

"There is a fire for our barbecue!" cried Penny.
"We can have our party!"

"The dragon helped us!" said Holly.
"He roared like thunder and breathed flames! I saw him!"

"Dragons?" said Linda. "Dragons are only for story books, Holly!"

"But I DID see him!" said Holly with a simle. "Really, I did!"
And just then, Dilly let another roar.

R-OA-OA-RR!
