by Jack
Once there was double-headed dragon who flew over the city. He wanted to rule the land. He flew around trying to kill anything that could fly with the fire from his mouth. Then one day the dragon was getting tired of chasing animals so he made a castle. He had baby dragons for knights. One day they started making a potion which attracted a teradactyl. The teradactyl went to the castle and tried to attack but the knights attacked it back. The big dragon chased the teracactyl around with his knights until it got so tired that it couldn’t fly anymore. The dragon and his knights put the teradactyl in a chamber. The birds came to help the teradactyl. The birds pecked on the chain that the teradactyl was tied to and the chain opened and the dragon decided he couldn’t rule the land after all.
