The purpose of this project was to work on our descriptive language and write a plot chart.

Once Upon a Plate
A shadow floats across the vast western hemisphere of the dinner plate. As the shadow moves swiftly over the hot dry rice land. The Shadow glides past the red and yellow spicy pepper desert flowers. Then continues on his way to the enormous salsa and tortilla chip palace. When he reaches the castle, he slips past the carrot lasers into the dragon queen’s room. First, the shadow observes Lasso, the dragon queen, and notices her fire-spitting goatee, her deep red eyes, copper scales, and thick long wings spread across the bed. He thinks about his evil plan to take power and rule the entire dinner plate. The shadow, Spirtman, wants to convince each ruler that the opposing ruler is planning an attack. He thinks that if they fight in a battle that they will destroy each other. Then he plans to take control over both sides of the plate. He looks back down at the sleeping queen. The shadow knew that the Queen, Lasso was only 18 years old but was still very aggressive. Still, he approached the medium sized dragon quietly. He watched her sleep, but then pounced into her dream. In her dream the Shadow addresses himself as Spiritman. He then tells her the eastern hemisphere’s king, Mushu, is going to attack soon. Then the shadow abruptly disappears from the dream and reappears beside her bed. Then he tip toes out of Lasso’s room and snuck back out of the castle. He starts his long and dreadful travel to the Eastern side of the plate to The Dragon King, Mushu’s palace.
He starts crossing back over the brown rice hills. Meanwhile Lasso is awakened by her alarming dream. She dreamed that The Dragon King, Mushu started to hike across the barren land to invade her territory and destroy her. So she decides she has to defend her territory from Mushu. Meanwhile, Spiritman flies over the thick broccoli trees and whizzes over the big blueberry bushes rising from the Purple Tortilla Chip land. He darts from left to right around the blackberry like rocks. Then he arrives at the purple olive castle. He swiftly moves past the eggplant hammers. He arrives at his final destination: the bed of the teal, small dragon, Mushu. Spiritman is careful to avoid the deep blue water-shooting eyes that lay in the snake-like body belonging to the dragon king of The Land of Lakes, Mushu. Mushu is known for his selfishness but also his kindness, two characteristics only dragon kings can have together. Spiritman leaps into the dreams of Mushu. Spiritman warns Mushu of the attack led by Lasso, the king of the Land of Drought. Spiritman jumps out of the dream and runs until he reaches the forbidden cave of Steak were all evil spirits dwell. As he sits in his cave, he thinks about how gullible the dragons were how soon he will have control over the whole plate.
While back at the Land of Drought, Lasso gets her map and heads in the direction the map leads her. She starts heading past the cacti and steps over rocks till she reaches the edge. She begins to slip. She lunged and tried to grab a buffalo wing bolder but she just skimmed the edge of the rough surface. She kept sliding down the slope of the edge of the world. She is almost devoured by the nothingness of whats beyond the plate. Then suddenly Lasso uses her long wings and the fire shooting from her goatee to boost her back to the safety of land. She looks at the map and is sure that she followed it exactly. After sitting at the edge of the plate for the longest time she finally notices the map is upside down. Then she flips the map and starts to walk the correct way to the Onion Ring Arena.
Simultaneously Mushu gets hungry. He searches high and low for the food he brought for his journey but, he can’t find it anywhere. He then realizes he already ate all the food. Then becoming desperate he devoured a rounded piece of land he has never encountered before, a white ball of fuzz. He swallows feeling instantly sick. It dawns on him, a rotten blueberry. Sicker and sicker he becomes and weak in the knees. He doesn’t know why but his king instincts told him to eat another one. So he eats another one and seconds after he feels better, more powerful. He returns to his king carriage and travels on to fight Lasso.
After Lasso’s incident with the map, she became very observant. Peeking around every corner and trying not to be her clumsy self. When Lasso reaches the onion ring she thinks she sees something blue enter the ring and starts to follow it. It looked like a mini dragon, similar to King Mushu. While searching for an opening in the ring arena she sees a swish of what looked to be King Mushu’s tail. She walked circles around the onion ring, but there was one small problem, she couldn't find the door. So with a huff and a puff she fired up her goatee and burned a hole in the onion and crawled through. Looking around the onion ring she couldn't find the Dragon King.
Mushu had just arrived at the Onion Ring feeling most powerful when he thought he saw a red scale enter the arena behind a cloud of fire and smoke. He couldn’t seem to find a door either so he followed Lasso into the dragon-made hole. She spotted Mushu right away and the greatest battle of the ceramic plate had just begun.
Instantly Mushu screams “Mushu crush you” and charges at Lasso. Casually Lasso dodges Mushu. “Is it me or is it hot in here” Lasso taunts, Lasso’s goatee spits fire at Mushu but, Mushu dodges and powers up, his eyes clouded up preparing to fight. Lasso bends and rolls to avoid Mushu’s blasts of water shooting from his mouth. Then she fires back swiftly and gently and dashes into the tube of the onion ring. Mushu intercepts Lasso’s Fire balls with his water daggers and runs in after her. When they both exited the other end and the lie couldnt get any worse from the sky dropped a thick ranch dressing like liquid. When it finally landed in a small puddle it addressed itself as Cloudboy, son of Spiritman. As Cloudboy asked them why they were fighting in this stack of onion rings, Mushu and Lasso told him about there prophecies and how Kings and Queens always believe in their predictions. Clouldboy then said my father, Spirtman was talking about this earlier, he told me that if you two destroy each other his plans to take over the whole plate will begin. Mushu asked lasso if it was possible that there dreams were fake. Lasso replied in saying that it had been done before and they then began to realize Spiritman tricked them into thinking that the other was going to attack.
“I can’t belive that we were tricked so easily.” Mushu said frustratedly.
Lasso agreed. “Come on, we are rulers we need to be more aware of what is surrounding us.”
“Lets just try and talk it out from now on. Now lets go get him.”
They quickly sorted their differences and began to try to find Spiritman. Suddenly lighting took the ring and dipped it in Cloudboy. Before Cloudboy completely vanished with the ring he gave them Spiritman’s last known whereabouts, the steak cave. So as the last drips of Cloudboy dematerialized the Rulers went off in search of the evil shadow.
They traveled for hours and the landscape became flat and empty. Finally after dodging fork like lighting they see Spiritman. Spiritman notices the dragons and dashes. He was running backwards and runs right in to the path of a strike of lightning and it whisks him away forever. The dragons agreed that there were no hard feelings and that it is neither of their faults. They then turn and walk there separate ways.
