Tragic Hero: A Short Story

Improved Essays
I got in a serious argument with my parents, and then I went outside. I saw a giant ship. Then, out of nowhere, there were three pirates. I didn’t know what to do.
The pirates had yellow teeth, peg legs, and guns for hands. They wrapped me in rope. It was scary. Then I saw a giant vortex. It looked like a portal. The ship went in the vortex with me on it.
When we got in the vortex, we got off the ship. I saw a bunch of creatures. They all said only their names and nothing but their names.
Behind me were three kids. I grabbed two guns, fifty bullets, and enough gun powder for fifty bullets. I used my pocket knife to cut the children free. The three children ran with me into the jungle. The children’s names were Jack, Henry, and Luke. Luke was eleven and always angry. Jack was ten and didn’t like to talk! Finally, Henry was the brains of the clan. He always got A+ on his subjects.

So we climbed up the mountain. It followed us. I shot at the mountain with a cannon. The mountain collapsed on the monster.
After, we went to Mrerp Kingdom. We attacked Mrerp. We took him down easily.
We walked for miles and miles. We saw a pack of duplickwotix. Duplickwotix are very dangerous. We woke one of them up. Then that one woke all the others, so we ran until there was a river. We jumped off into the river. Five duplickwotix jumped, and we grabbed hold of one’s back. We got out and pulled one duplickwotix out so we had something to eat.
We ate it and continued our journey to the portal.
We finally reached the portal. But we forgot about the guardian. Then I remembered. “Watch out, Jack.”
“No, you guardians! I’ve had enough.” Then I started glowing. “Aaaah!” I screamed.
Then a golden hammer appeared. I hit the monster in the face with the hammer.
We went through the portal, and I told my parents at home that I had forgotten what time it
