The Stolen Gold

Hello everyone! Wildstyle here! This is my entry for @goodguygreg's St. Patrick's Day Writing Contest.

"The Stolen Gold!"
by, Wildstyle of the @crowbarkids

The leprechaun suddenly realized his gold was missing.
“It was a thief!” He cried. “What shall I do?”
Then, all of a sudden, he heard tip-toeing, so he packed a bag and went towards the noise. In his bag, he packed string, scissors, snacks, his pet snake, all the gold he had left and a black suit. He ran towards the sound, then stopped and listened. He waited and put on his black suit. He looked between two bushes and he saw a gang of robbers. In the middle of them was a sack. They had his gold!

He had to think quick! He had to use the things that were in his bag. So he pulled out the scissors and the string and the rest of his gold. He put the gold by a tree.. He tied the string to two trees right in front of his gold. He hid behind the trees and he waited… and waited… and waited… It was a good thing he brought snacks because he got hungry! Finally, the sun came up. Then the sun shined onto his gold which made a light shining off it. The bad guys saw the light and ran towards it. BUT, they didn’t see the string and they all tripped. Then the pet snake, Bellatrix, distracted the robbers by slithering around them so they couldn’t move. The leprechaun ran around them and grabbed all his gold and jumped over the two bushes and ran back to his house with the snake slithering after him.

The gang of robbers got very scared and never tried to steal his gold again!

The End

Thanks for reading! Have a great day!

I do need to ask where the leprechaun found a snake. After all, Saint Patrick is said to have driven all the snakes out of Ireland! Of course, it's always possible this leprechaun's story doesn't take place there...

The story takes place right next to Ireland, a fairy island called Snake Island. The leprechaun was out walking one day . He found the snake trapped under a rock so he helped it out and the snake became his pet. - Wildstyle

Good story! Nice drawing too! All the best for the contest @crowbarkids!

It sounds very useful to have a pet snake who can help you out like that. Especially when the snake matches your outfit.
Great story and good luck with the contest!

Thank you! I got runner up! I'm very happy because this was my first writing contest. I liked your picture in your hat.

Congratulations! Now it's time to think about what you learned from writing that story and start working on your next creative project. I'm looking forward to seeing what you post next :)
