Ok now for the story. I woke up at midnight I was at a bus station where I had fallen asleep. I thought that I was in bed because I was so comfortable. Oh well I guess I had just fallen asleep. I took one step and fell into the ground. I landed in an old train station that was underground. I know what happened. A bad man walked past me and thought I'll play a trick on this man. So this is what he did he took my mining tool and used it to move some stones so there was a big hin front of me. So when I stepped off the bench I would fall. So now I was under ground all alone Or was I.It was very smelly in there as light as outside but not a single light it was strange.I dusted the place where the name of the station was it said baby dragon station.Why did they called it Baby Dragon Station. Then I heard a soft grumbling noise, first I thought probably my imagination. Then it got louder and louder and louder. Until I saw a something coming around the corner. I gasped and saw A BABY DRAGON! Next thing I Knew he was shooting fireballs at me. I ran for my life when I was at the next station I stopped panting. This station was called dragon station.

The story doesn't end there. My friends where the main character in the story. I knew that the man taking our mining tools was moving the stone but I needed two people for that. One for the person on the bench one to jump at the man that was taking our mining tools. I got one man to go with me his name was Ho he was a brave man. But he and I were very scared as this man must be very clever to do such a thing. So Ho and I went to Jing’an temple bus station (that was the name of the station). So he sat Down he and fell asleep. Then I thought how can he fall asleep he said he would try hard to stay awake and he fell asleep instantly. I so deep in thought that I didn't notice a man taking Ho’s mining tool. When he woke I said that I had saw no man pass. He took one step and fell into the ground. I thought how stupid could I be.
