Harry The Dragon & The Magical Island

In a faraway magical island, there lived a dragon called Harry and his friend Amelia the Strawberry. Harry loved to play Fireball, and his greatest wish was to become human.

The magical island sat in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and only dragons could reach it. However, wizards could teleport there, and they built their own town hall.

One misty morning a plane crashed into the biggest tower the dragons had built and then a passing ship stopped to refuel. More wizards appeared on the island and Harry the Dragon fled to find a cave to hide in.

The presence of the wizards caused a fight with the dragons and suddenly the population of dragons died down.

Two weeks passed by, and a dragon flew over Harry’s cave. It dropped a letter at Harry’s blue door, at the entrance of his cave.

The letter read:

Dear Harry,

I am sending you on a quest to stop this war between the dragons and the wizards.

From,

Jack, the Leader of Dragons

Harry pulled out some stone - that turned to paper - but when he tried to write, he was shivering, and his mind went blank. Before Harry could think of what to write there was a knock at the door.

Harry jumped and ran for his escape boat outside, located at the back of his cave.

Harry took some time to calm himself down. He was afraid that he would split the island in half. So, he turned on his favourite song by Harry Styles and meditated to ‘As It Was’. By the end of the song, he was dancing and feeling calm.

When he returned to his cave he saw Jack, The Leader of Dragons, holding Amelia the Strawberry by her leaves.

“What’s wrong?” asked Harry.

“Amelia was being mischievous again,” said Jack.

“Let me go now!” shouted Amelia as she tried to bite Jack.

“What did she do now?” asked Harry.

“Never mind that…” started Jack. “I want to challenge you to a Fireball match. If you win, I will release Amelia. But if I win you must go on the quest.”

“Can Amelia go too?” asked Harry.

“Amelia can go if she plays with you,” said Jack.

“But she can’t breathe fire,” replied Harry.

In the end, Amelia was the ref, and Harry and Jack invited two friends to play two-a-side. Jimmy Bob Joe was on Harry’s team, and Lester was on Jack’s team.

Jack’s team won and the score was 4-2.

Harry was distressed because he had to leave his magical island and go on a quest to stop the war between dragons and wizards…

在遙遠的一座魔法島上,住著一隻名叫哈利的噴火龍,以及他的好朋友,草莓艾米莉亞。哈利對於玩火球情有獨鍾,而他最大的願望則是成為人類。

這座魔法島位於大西洋中央,只有龍族能夠抵達。不過,巫師們也能靠瞬間移動到島上,因此他們建造了屬於自己的市政廳。

某個濃霧籠罩的清晨,一架飛機撞上了由龍族建造的巨塔。接著,又有一艘船停靠在島附近補給燃料。陸續不斷有其他巫師來到島上,哈利龍看到這景象匆忙逃到山洞中躲起來。

巫師們的出現挑起了與龍族之間的戰爭,因此龍的數量大量減少。

兩週後,一隻龍飛過哈利躲藏的山洞,並在洞口的藍色大門前落下了一封信。

信中寫著......


親愛的哈利,

我要派定你去阻止這場龍族與巫師之間的戰爭。

龍族領袖 捷克龍


哈利找了些石頭當作紙,然後試著在上面寫字回覆。但他的手不停顫抖,腦中一片空白。他還沒想到要寫些什麼,外面突然有人敲門。

哈利嚇得匆忙跑向藏在山洞後方的小船逃生。

哈利害怕自己的逃避會讓這座島四分五裂,為了冷靜下來,他播放起自己最喜歡的哈利·斯泰爾斯的歌曲《往昔美好》進行打坐冥想。當音樂結束時,他跳著舞,內心感到很平靜。

當哈利回到山洞時,他看到龍族領袖傑克正抓著草莓艾米莉亞頭上的葉子。

「發生了什麼事了」哈利問。

「艾米莉亞又在搗蛋。」傑克說。

「放開我!」艾米莉亞大叫,並試圖反咬傑克。

「她做了什麼嗎?」 哈利問道。

「你別管這麼多… 」傑克說著。「和我來一場火球比賽吧!如果你贏了,我會放走艾米莉亞。但若是我贏了,你必須去阻止這場戰爭。」

「艾米利亞也可以參賽嗎?」哈利問。

「只要她跟你一隊,當然可以。」傑克說。

「其實她不會噴火⋯⋯」哈利回答。

最後,艾米莉亞充當裁判,哈利和傑克邀請了兩位朋友進行二對二的比賽。吉米·鮑勃·喬跟哈利一隊,萊斯特則跟傑克一隊。

最後傑克的隊伍以4比2獲勝。

哈利感到很沮喪,為了阻止這場龍族和巫師之間的戰爭,他必須先離開這座魔法島⋯⋯
