Hello friends! I am Dragost Dragon. I am the correspondent of the most famous Dragon Office, located in the Dragon World. Now let me tell you all a story which is comical and also adventurous. So, let’s get started. It was a windy Monday morning, and I worked at my office. Hey, do you all get Monday Blues? But we don’t. We’re always glad to work. I was working peacefully in my office without any trouble. “Ah! What a peaceful day.”, I thought. Then I turned on the TV to check out the latest news.

The news highlights flashed on my screen in front of my eyes. I was petrified. They were: “Prisoner Reoke-1 has escaped from prison.” Then, a reporter reported, “Prisoner Reoke-1 has escaped from prison. The police are looking forward to finding and arresting him. However, it is suspected that he might have escaped with the help of another person, who might be close to him.” Then I turned off the TV. I was petrified. Now boy, was I sure that he would finish me off? The thought of it made me freeze like a sculpture. I was so petrified and pale. I didn’t want to continue watching more of it. Then someone knocked on the door.

I was discouraged. But still, I gathered my might and opened the door. It was Hurculo. “Hey, Dragost. Good Morning!” he greeted. “Bad Morning for me, though. How can I say this to you, Hurculo? I am stressed and petrified.”, I thought. Then I greeted not to make a first wrong impression. Then Hurculo interrogated, “What were you thinking, Dragost?”

I replied, “I thought about work.” Then Hurculo countered, “You’re always daydreaming. But you already know that action speaks louder than words.” I was flushed with embarrassment. I shouted loudly, “Get out! You damned bastard. I am thinking, not daydreaming. Then I mumbled, “He doesn’t know the difference between thinking and daydreaming.”

Then Hurculo got disappointed and left the cabin. I felt sorry for him. I said to myself, “Why did you say that to him, you stooped dummy?” But it was too late. He left the cabin before I could utter this. Then, it was time for me to have a break. I checked my wallet to go to the canteen and pay for the food after eating.

But there were no dracopounds. Then I realized that I had forgotten to keep my money in my wallet. And I have kept it on the centre table in the drawing-room of my house. And I have left the window open. Now, there are chances for me to get robbed. I couldn’t stop thinking about this.

It was my carelessness and lack of concentration I had that I even forgot about my money. “Oh no! Shit it!” I mumbled.

Then I sat on the chair mumbling and weeping (a bit). Then my grandfather entered. He shuddered, “What are you doing, DRAGOST? Start working. There should be no breaks for you until you complete your assigned work. And by the way, do you have any ideas for your next story, huh. Start everything. I should see you working sincerely.”

Then, he left. “Oh, why, for god’s sake, did gramps say that? I couldn’t concentrate. Today’s not my day. I thought it was a peaceful day. But no, it’s not like that. Woe is me.”, I mumbled.

Then, I moaned and started my assigned piece of work. It was evening when I completed my job and had to leave the office. I went silently while thinking about my woes. Then, my parents called me. I picked up the call and answered, “Hello! Is it Mom or Dad? Anyways, How are you both? Everything’s going well?” “Going well for me.”, I lied.

Then my mom’s voice came out. She answered my questions, “We’re doing well. And yeah, my dear Dragost, everything is going well. By the way, If you don’t mind pls, visit our house. And Happy Birthday, Dragost!” I was confused, which made me reply, “Today’s not my Bday, Mom. And I’m on my way. Bye.” Then I hung up.

I reached my parents’ house. There I had a surprise. Hurculo and his associates, Tommy and Max, were also there. “Ready for a group walk ’round the park?”, Hurculo asked me. I knew he was trying to console me, so I agreed.

Then we all locked the house, and we were ready to go for a walk around the park when some masked people(I saw three) assaulted us, and we all blacked out. Then when I finally came to my senses. I have tied to a pole or something and was in a terrifying and dark place. (Eek!)

Then the lights went on. By then, all of them have woken up. I saw them tied to adjacent poles. Then the people who assaulted us removed their masks, and I could recognize two people except for one person. He looked bulky. Guess who the two people were. They were Reoke-1 and 65-3TG7. I was petrified to stone. Reoke-1 smirked at me. He roared, “Hey, you! Dragost the saviour, I’ve escaped from prison to kill you and your pesky friend, Hurculo. Now lemme introduce you to Tacer-66, the son of Tacer-65. You must know who Tacer-65 is. And shall I tell everyone about your heroic and uncool thing that you did to him, murderer?”

My parents and other people who were tied got shocked. My parents fainted, and others were frozen with shock.

“You evil murderer, Dragost, I’ll kill you to avenge my dad’s death. You killed my dad.”, Tacer-66 shouted. I replied, “No, I didn’t kill him. It was Ralphie, my cat, who pounced on the fan, and it heaved on your dad. That’s not my fault.”

“No, you murdered my dad, you liar.”, Tacer retaliated angrily. Then 65-3TG7 grumbled. It said, “Boss, Dragost and his friend betrayed me and pounded on the off button, completely immobilizing me. They both deserve to be killed.” Then Reoke-1 said in a relaxed tone, “So! Hero, you have committed many crimes along with your companion.”

“Both of them should be paid for this. I will not accept any final wishes now. I am fed up with them, boss. I want to kill them without any mercy, just like how this Dragost guy killed Tacer-65.”, 65-3TG7 grumbled and pointed at me.

“Good idea, my robot lad. Well said!”, Reoke-1 retaliated. Then two knives came out of the robot’s hands. Then it roared, “Ready to die, Dragost and Hurculo, you two brats. Now die!”

It was about to slice us when the police arrived. It seems like Hurculo silently activated SOS. The police arrested those brats and untied us. The three brats mumbled something before they were loaded into the police van. Then, the van drifts off.

We all ran to our respective homes. When I reached home, I opened the door and went to the centre table, only to see my intact notes lying there. I heaved a sigh of relief and locked all the doors and windows. I thought about my adventure, and that slicing part caught me. But luckily, the police arrived before it was too late and saved us.

So, I would end the story here. So, goodbye dear readers, this is the end and see you soon :D.
