  1. Once there was a wizard who lived in a miniscule hut at the top of a tall, rocky, mountain. His name was Bob. Everyone admired him and he would always get gifts from the villagers who lived below because he helped them do challenging things. One day the mayor told him to make a potion to make him never become ill again. The villagers thought this was an easy task but Bob had a secret: he was fantastic at spells but terrible at making potions that were not anti-sleeping potions which he always kept a bottle of in his pocket. Before Bob could tell the mayor, he had walked away. The mayor had told him that the deadline would be tomorrow evening. It was still midday so Bob got ready and looked for the right potion. He looked for hours, reading every page from top to bottom, bottom to top. He read the whole book from left to right, but still couldn’t find it. The closest thing to the required potion was a healing potion. It was really late now and he was really tired so he took a gulp of his marvelous anti-sleep potion and he felt like he had just woken up:refreshed and ready for what lay ahead. When he woke up the next day, an idea struck him. He could use the ingredient that makes the anti-sleep potion last long, and use it to make the healing potion last long. Before he could think of anything else to do, he made an anti sleep potion and put five sacks of Stardust in it to make it last longer. Making the potion took many hard-working hours and it was almost evening so Bob used the rest of the time to make the bottle work well. Before long, it was evening so he went down the mountain and found the mayor at the centre of the village. Bob gave the mayor the potion and tried it. “I feel like I will never get sick again. I just feel that good.” said the mayor. Bob strolled home feeling delighted that he could make another potion.

  2. In the midst of the jungle there was an old yet beautiful train track that led to a mysterious, lush gateway to a random world. The tunnel was bright and covered Madeira vine. It was truly a majestic sight. The tracks were made of Bamboo. Every hour, a train made of vines would rapidly facilitate down the old yet magical train tracks. One day a young boy named Bob stumbled across this extraordinary set of tracks. A few hours earlier, Bob had run away from his owner who was a giant because he was petrified of the insane giant’s new pet which was a strange looking human who looked like a lunatic. At that moment, the hourly train sped past and a smurf yanked him onto the train. On the train, there were nifflers, ores, smurfs and many more different magically majestic creatures. A few seconds later, Bob realised that he was the only human on the quickly advancing train and the smurf that hauled him onto the train was meant to do that to anyone that he could grasp and detect. Now Bob desired to go home and stay with a lunatic and an insane giant. Then he reflected on what Bob did to his owner. Even though he was insane, Bob thought of what his owner might be thinking or doing. Then Bob remembered the day when he was first adopted by the giant. It was a wonderful memory. Bob had to go home but he couldn’t. He was trapped in a mysterious train which had no entrance or exit except for the window that everyone gets tugged through.
    Bob was doubtful about how to get out of the train because the smurf guarding the window looked like they could break a few bones just by tapping someone. Suddenly, there was a deafening bang and the train broke apart. This was Bob’s only chance to escape before entering the portal at the other end. Without thinking. Bob surged out leaving everyone else in the dust. Out of nowhere, Bob’s owner appeared and scooped him up using his colossal hands. “Time to go home.”boomed the giant. Bob followed these straightforward instructions and clambered up to the giant’s shoulder and that is where he spent the rest of the time during the adventure. When they got home, they were greeted by the giant’s other pet who didn’t seem crazy anymore;instead, Bob thought he was rather polite.
