Steeve the Unicorn:
A story written by me and my ten-year old cousin, Kathryn.
Once upon a time, there was a magical unicorn. His name was Steeve, and he loved ice cream. Fortunately for him, he lived in a world of candy, and his village was called "Ice Cream City". Steeve loved lice cream so much, that one day he decided to eat all the ice cream in the city! That was the beginning of his adventure.
Steeve began with his own house, which was made of chocolate ice cream. After this, he had to use the bathroom, but since he had eaten his own house, including bathroom, he had to borrow his neighbor's. He finished his business by by eating his neighbor's french-vanilla house, which was decorated with cookie dough bits.
Now, Steeve ate tons and tons of houses, which made him have to keep going to the bathroom; despite this, he he kept eating the houses, always thinking, "Well, one more can't hurt." But, of course, it can hurt, as he soon found out!
The next, and final, ice-cream house belonged to Mayor Hoofchild. It was a whole ice-cream cake house! Steeve munched through the chocolate, and then the vanilla, and finally into the mayor's bedroom.
"What in the flippin', whole hoofin' candy world is going on?!" the mayor proclaimed.
"I got hungry," admitted Steeve. Then, he fell into a deep, deep sleep.
Steeve awoke in the middle of a chilly, dark room. Then, a sudden light appeared. To Steeves's surprise. two funny-looking unicorns came out of it, and they were string right at him!
"Steeve, Steeeeeeeeeeeeve," they whinnied. "Come with us to candy mountain, where all of your troubles will melt awaaaaaaaaaay..."
"No." Steeve told them. "I heard what you two did to my cousin Charlie. No chance I'm coming anywhere with you weirdos. Besides, were'nt you two in jail?"
"Don't be silly, Steeeeeeve!" the one chided.
"Yeah, we don't need any more kidneys or horns!" The other added.
"Then what do you want from me?"
The two began to speak as one again. "To show you what you neeeeeeeeeed in your life!"
"And what would that be- actually, don't answer that. I'm a little frightened to find out."
"We don't know, Steeve. But the Great Green Leprechaun of Asia (G.G.L.o.A.) knows!"
"The... what?"
"Come with ussssss, Steeeeeeve, and we'll show you!"
Finally, Steeve gave in, and the two led him to the land of the G.G.L.o.A. Expecting a giant Leprechaun, Steeve was very surprised when he discovered that the G.G.L.o.A was only 3.6 inches tall!
"He is a Leprechaun, Steeve!" the two unicorns chided, matter-of-factly.
"Wait, how'd you know I was thinking that?" Steeve asked them.
"It's all in your mind, Steeeeeeeeeve, all in your mind...."
With that, Steeve woke up.
"Oh, good god, it was just a dream..." he sighed.
"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, Steeeeeeeeeeve!" the two weird unicorns sung, as they stared at Steeve, one at the end of his bed, the other in it.
And just what happened after that, you ask? Well, no one knows exactly. The only thing definite was that, three days later, Steeve was found in the bed of an abandoned house, completely unharmed- of course, except, for the fact that his heart was missing and all his blood was drained.
THE END.
