The Secret Blacksmith
Once upon a time, a boy named Steve was walking with his friend. “What should we do. It’s getting boring?” asked his friend. “Maybe we can play hide and seek in the forest” suggested Steve. “Ok, but last one there is the seeker!” said Steve’s friend.
Steve’s friend ended up being the seeker. Steve ran swiftly into the forest and found a house. “Ha, found you!” shouted Steve’s friend. Steve led his friend to the house, where they found a chest full of metal scraps. “We’re in a blacksmith!” yelled Steve. Steve put some scraps in the bucket and started the fire beneath it. The scraps melted, so Steve poured the hot liquid on an anvil and started to hammer the liquid into a blade shape. He then cooled it in a creek. “Look what I just made!” said Steve.
His friend took the blade and said, “I will make the handle,” and ran straight to the trees. He took a branch and started to carve it into a handle with the blade, then he polished the handle with sandpaper. “It’s done,” said Steve’s friend. They both admired it. The next day, Steve came back and decided to forge a lightsaber. He took the leftover scraps in the chest and started to forge the handle. It took about 3 weeks but when he clicked the button, nothing happened, so he started to make it work. He tried again and it finally worked. He was everywhere on the news.
