⤿ genre : fantasy ⤿ appropriate for all ages ⤿ chapter two (ending chapter) ---------------------------------------------------------------- The sisters and their mom paced back-and-forth in front of the stone dragon cave, trying to think of a way to get their father back and what had happened. Rosie insisted on checking the inside of the cave, but her mom refused saying it would be too dangerous, and if that was an option, she would have done that herself. Naluma decided that the girls should try to find any traps that might have triggered and trapped their dad. Everyone agreed. About fifteen minutes later, Rosie found a row of buttons behind the row of bottom fangs that were attached to a rope that pulled down the upper jaw of the stone dragon. This didn’t help much, but maybe it was what trapped their father inside. Who knows? About half an hour later, Emily noticed a red button on the side of the opening of the cave. It said “DO NOT TOUCH” in red letters above. This button made everyone suspicious. What was it for? What did it do? Naluma sighed and decided to click the button herself for her children’s safety and to see what it did. When clicked, a huge stone box slid out from inside the cave. There was only a doorknob on the outside. It was full of restless people. The Carols opened the door and thousands of people rushed out including the sister’s father. There were people from the 1700s, 1800s, and the 1900s! About seven or eight people from the 1700s and 1800s were already laying dead in the box. The sisters and their dad were forced to pull them all out, one by one. Another man who was from the 1900s looked like he was trapped not too long ago, but his face was as white as snow. However, everyone came to the girls and their mother to thank them for freeing them. The Carols family did a happy family reunion. But turned out that their father had some very important information. He said that millions of years ago, a good dragon was turned to a stone cave by an evil wizard. The wizard didn’t want anyone breaking or freeing the dragon from the curse, so he made a system that whoever went inside the cave would be trapped. He also made a button so that every year, he would free the people trapped inside. This went on and on until the wizard died in the 1700s, and no one really cared to click the button for him. Since then, people have been gathering up in the box until now. Naluma asked her husband how he knew all this information, and he responded saying that an old woman from 2012 told him. Rosie was already searching up the information on her phone. She said that everything was true according to Google and Siri. Then, the whole family decided to just stop worrying and then decided that they would free the people every month from the dragon. They all went home happy that they had completed a good deed.
