Adventures of Ben and Karl 2

  One Sunday, after the marvelous adventure slaying medusa and the minotaur, Ben and I were at the portal in the cave, but this time we tied a rope from the entrance of the cave to ourselves, so that nasty little creature would not get us today.  So after a while something pushed us, but this time I managed to catch it.  It was actually the baby of the monkey we were chased last time.  We decided to name it and make it our new adventure companion.  "Should we name it Donny or Danny?" asked I, "I think Danny would do."said Ben.

  We untied the ropes and jumped into the portal, and we started to teleport to our new destination.  When we arrived, we were in ancient China.  Farmers at their fields, Butchers at their stalls and others.  We went to a shop to have some food and we were warmly welcomed by a kind family.  At night, we went to sleep, but suddenly Ben heard a squeaking noise outside and went to check it out.  He saw a fire and called me up.

  Ben and I told the family about it and we went out.  After some time, we saw, in front of our very eyes, the legendary Phoenix.  We were amazed by the sight of the fiery bird.  On its wing there stuck an arrow.  The family helped it remove the arrow and bandage it.  I manage to get one wing and a small bottle of tears from it( it is believed that the phoenix's tears can heal wounds.  We brought it back deep into the woods.  Before leaving we said thanks to the kind family and were teleported again.

  This time we landed in a pool of water.  When we came out, we saw some kappas( a creature with a beak of a bird, shell of a tortoise, hands of an otter and legs of a frog).  We started playing with them, we played with water, catch fish and others.  Before we left, we gave the kappas some cucumbers, their favorite food.

We once more teleported back home.  But this time we kept the secret of the kappa and hid the feather and tears of the legendary phoenix.  The next day, surprisingly, both our families brought use to china.  And this time Ben and I took the opportunity to do something that we can't forget, look for our dear friend the phoenix.  But that will be another story... Bye!!!
