Secret in the Garden

“Hurry up, Max!” Jules yelled. “The faster we dig, the faster we get pizza. I’m already hungry.”

Max and Jules had agreed to spend Saturday morning digging the garden to get it ready for the planting season. As soon as they finished, their mom had promised a pizza lunch—it was a fair trade-off, they thought. But just an hour into digging, Max was feeling tired.

“I’m working as fast as I can!” Max yelled back.

Max gripped his shovel tighter and dug deep. His shovel moved through the soil. Crack!

“What on earth was that?” thought Max. “Hey, Jules, I think I hit something!” he shouted.

“It’s probably just a rock,” Jules said. “Just keep going.”

Max continued to dig carefully. A round, white object slowly emerged.

“Jules, it’s not a rock!” he exclaimed. “It’s like…a big, round white thing.”

Jules walked over to look. They resumed digging around the object. The top of the object became clearer.

“It’s an egg!” Jules shouted. They continued to dig until finally, they could reach down and remove the egg from the soil.  

Holding the gigantic egg, the boys were mesmerized. It was as big as a soccer ball!

“Oh, no,” Max said, pointing to a small crack in the top of the egg. “I must have cracked it with my shovel.”

Ever so slowly, the crack started to expand.

“Something’s hatching!” Jules shouted. He gently placed the egg back on the soil and they took a few steps back.

Story Endings

Out emerged a baby dragon! “Whoa! That’s epic!” said Max.

As Max and Jules worked together to move the egg to a large flat rock, the baby dragon’s large, shining green eyes stared at Max and Jules. She had scales lined up on her body that was green like her eyes.

“She’s a beauty. What should we name her?” Jules asked Max. Max replied, “ Yeah, you’re right. I know! We should name her Jade because her eyes shine like jade stones.” “Perfect.” the two boys said.

A few hours later, the boys went into their house to the kitchen. “Mom, we finished digging. Can we have our pizza now?” shouted Jules, carrying Jade.

Max’s and Jules’ mom yelled from the laundry room saying “Sure, pizza’s still in the fridge. You guys can reheat it in the micro- wait what was that?” The sound their mom heard was Jade’s firey sneeze. Max said, “Oh, umm Jules and I were making animal sounds.” Their mom said, “Ah, ok you two have fun now.”

They all smiled eating pizza with Jade.

Out came a tail. This tail had been nothing like they had ever seen before. Then a wing came out. When the creature came out it was a dragon. The dragon led them to well into a part of a forest that they have never been to and inside were gold, diamonds, money and so much more. This afternoon when the two kids showed their mom the gold and other stuff they found, they didn’t go for pizza they went to a fancy restaurant with the greatest food on the planet. The End

Out of the egg came a little lizard looking thing. We weren’t able to determine quite what it looked like because it looked like a creature with an alligator’s mouth, with a lizard’s body, and with wings that were glowing. That was when Max thought that this mysterious looking creature was actually a baby dragon. It sort of made sense because, it did have the characteristics of a dragon and no other egg in the world would be this big. Max was starting to say that he was wondering how this egg ended up here in our backyard in all of the other places in the world. That was when I made a theory of how this egg could’ve ended up here in our backyard. Maybe the dragon could’ve been here from a long time ago around the time dinosaurs roamed the earth. His parent could’ve layed an egg and buried him to save him from the asteroid which hit the earth and killed the dinosaurs. We lifted the dragon and put him up on a bench in our backyard. We finally decided to secretly keep him as a pet.

-What do you think it could be? asked Max In no time, a small, round, scaly green head with big black eyes poked out of the top of the egg. -Roooooaaarrr. Said the small creature. It wasn’t scary at all, it was more pathetic and cute then anything. The small creature blinked at them and yawned. -Oh my gosh! said Jules, I think it’s a baby dinosaur! -You must be right! exclaimed Max. -Mum! Max and I found a baby dinosaur! A REAL one! yelled Jules.

After that, they named the small dinosaur Creature, and walked him around town with a leash. He never ever ate anyone. And his favourite food was brussels sprouts.

THE END!

After they took a few steps back they watched the egg hatch.

“Should we touch it Jules?” Asked Max trying to contain his excitement!

“I’m not so sure that is a good idea Max…” Jules said starting to sound nervous.

“Why Not?” Max said stamping his foot. —- Even though Max was only Four years younger then Jules, he did have quite the attitude for his age!

“Are you scared?..” Max replied as he went up to Jules and started staring at him, he looked at him like Jules was a lion and Max was some food for the lion to snack on.

“NO!” Jules said trying to sound tough.

They took a few steps towards this mysterious egg that Max had found.

They took a few more AND…….

“Crack!” The egg split exactly down the middle. A beaked head slowly emerged from the giant egg. The bird’s head looked as though it was flaming - the feathers moved gracefully back and forth and it’s eyes had a warm fire like glow to them. “Wow!” exclaimed Max, his eyes round with awe. Then, Jules shouted,”That must be a phoenix!” He slowly approached the magnificent bird. The phoenix gazed at Jules and cawed softly.”I thought that phoenixes didn’t exist.” Max whispered softly. “They don’t.” replied Jules. Then, the flaming bird erupted into flames and nothing remained except the cracked egg shell and a pile of ashes.
