Korean International School, Brown, Isla - 8
O
nce upon a time there was a monkey king. Far away from the monkey king, there was a God.
The monkey wanted to find that God and on the way there was lots of monsters, so the monkey
asked some of its friends for help.
The monkey’s friends were too scared, but they said they promise him to find some friends for him to go on
the adventure. So they walked and walked, but nobody wanted to go. They were all too scared.
They walked some more and then they saw a dark shadow. The dark shadow was coming towards them.
Then the sun came up and they could see the creature. It was a baby pig. The monkey was wondering why
such a small pig can make a huge shadow. The pig looked like she wanted to come with them, so they took
the pig.
They walked more, but this time they saw a bright light. It looked like a jewel. It was, but it was also a fox.
The fox had a belt and on the belt it had the jewel. The fox said he wanted to come, so he came too. “I
love adventures,” said the fox. The fox’s name was Freddy.
The monkey king said goodbye to his friends and went on the adventure with the baby pig and Freddy fox.
Once they started walking, they saw a big monster with four eyes and about sixty arms and hands and one
leg. He looked a bit funny. The whole forest was full of laughter. They stopped laughing because the
monster was carrying a sword.
The monster was going to kill them. Freddy stepped up. “I’ll stop them,” he said. He took the jewel off his
belt and did some magic with it. The monster was dead, so they headed to the God.
Another monster came. He looked just like a person. Freddy stepped up again, but the pig stopped him. It
was her turn to fight. She took the jewel from Freddy and she did the magic and gave the jewel back to
Freddy.
They walked some more and then they saw a castle. They went inside the castle. The monkey king saw his
God and suddenly the God called out, “Alice”. The pig ran to the God. The others looked very confused.
The God told them that Alice was her pig and she knew that the monkey king was finding her, so she sent
her pig to help them.
The fox went back to his mom and the monkey king lived with the God and Alice, so they all lived happily
ever after!
