HAHAHAHA HELLO People.
I recently wrote a story for a class assignment please read and tell me what you think or thunk for that matter.

It was a lonely night in Toledo, California for Gabriel Williams. He sat on the beach looking at the waves move silently. He looked up at the sky noticing how dark it got in such a little time. As he looked up he watched a bright streak head across the sky making its own path. He sat in the sand thinking about what it would be like up there, in space itself. He soon drifted off to sleep forgetting about where he had to go. Something in the distance exploded, waking him up about two hours later, giving him a jolt of surprise he jumped up with a worried look on his face.

He looked at a smoldering hole in the ground about ½ a mile away. When he came upon the scene he looked down the hole feeling hot air pouring out. He jerked away feeling his face turning red and hot from the steam, when he did something moved within the hole. With a slight hesitation he tried to look in again seeing something huge and black at the bottom of the hole. He looked around seeing no one coming to investigate the sound, “That’s weird” he thought in his head. With another hesitation he wondered if he should go get someone to tell about it.

When he thought about it more he couldn’t decide on what to do. A clinking sound came from within the hole it seemed as what ever was in there was alive but he knew that it would be impossible. He stuck his hand over the hole feeling a wind and no heat, it seemed to have cooled down so he climbed in the hole not thinking of anything at all. As he made his way down thoughts ran through his mind, he was exited about what might be at the bottom and worried at the same time. When he reached the bottom he looked around seeing nothing but shadows and noticing that the bottom was much larger than the top was. He examined the wall seeing drag marks and scratches along the hard clay. A single thought ran through his head that time “something was, or is alive down here”.

Hearing a hissing sound from the corner and shadows behind him, turning around slowly his eyes struggled to adjust to the dark. He stopped identifying where the hissing came from, a black shadowy figure was in the darkness watching Gabriel’s every move.
A light flame bristled in front of his shoes. Lighting the dark for a spilt second, Gabriel’s eyes widened seeing the figure in the darkness. It stared at him with cold blue eyes, that with held a wise, dark look within them.

The figure was none other than something Gabriel thought to be just a myth, a dragon.
Gabriel backed away a foot until he hit the wall, he looked up and forgot how deep it was.
There was no path or anything to grab on to climb up and if there was he wouldn’t be able to get 3 feet away.
((no this isnt me and I dont live in Toledo))
p.s. turn in tommorrow for the conclusion
