“When the Harvest Came”

Once upon a time in a far away land called “Gentury”. Gentury isn’t a place you wouldn’t want to go on vacation to on vacation to or even call your home. It was cold, dark, its always thundering and lightening, but the weird thing is that it never rains. It only rains once every 3 months. Once they had a huge population but with the lack of water they couldn’t grow any crops. So the people in the land starved to death.


Since that there wasn’t a lot of water the farmers stopped planting seeds. The only food the people were given were meat. That was given to them once a month. So you can imagine how the people that live in Gentury were unhappy, weak, and skinny. But when all the farmers stopped planting seeds more people died.

The land of Gentury is ruled by this evil warlock named Micheal. Everybody in the land was scared of him. He was very tall with slinky body. Micheal was a greedy person. Micheal had an apple tree and he had a garden. If you ever went on his property he would cast a spell on you. But Micheal was the one eating up all the people’s food.

When all the other farmers stopped planting seeds. There was this boy named Tyvonne who kept planting seeds. He kept planting seeds even though he knew that the soil was cursed by Micheal. Tyvonne was a good guy. He liked making people happy. One time Micheal distributed some food and their was a boy who didn’t get any food. So he decided to share his food with the boy and they became best friends.

The boy Tyvonne shared his food with name was Ike. Just like his best friend, Ike was a good person. But Ike had also been through some hard times. Ike lost his mother because she died from starvation. That is the main reason Ike doesn’t like Micheal. Ever since Ike lost his mom he has been waiting on his chance to destroy him. But he couldn’t do it alone needed some help from Jalequa and Kaya.

Jalequa is the smartest girl in the land. So if anyone was to help Ike out it was her. She dreamed of a new land, a place with light and food, so she can feel happy. The only reason Jalequa stayed in the land of Gentury was because of her twin sister Kaya.

Kaya was the bravest girl in the land. She would try to fight the whole world if she could. She doesn’t like Micheal –either because he is a bully. If you deny any request he gives you he would put a curse on you. Kaya doesn’t like to be bullied or anyone else.

One day Kaya’s little brother Phil was walking and he decided to bother him. Micheal threw a pebble at him. Kaya saw him throw then she started screaming at Micheal, then they began to argue. They were so loud that her friends heard her and they came running. But Micheal threatened her and he would take her voice box out so she wouldn’t be able to talk anymore.

Tyvonne had just finished planting some seeds. Micheal approaches all of them and asks who are you suppose to be. Ike said we are the people of this land. Were tired of you telling us what to do and you eating up all the food. Micheal said what are you going to do about it the. Ike told him I am not scared of you. Then kaya followed and said she’s not scared either. As a matter of fact she went and took an apple from the tree and bit into it. So Michael raises this wand to the air and when she saw him she immediately picked up the tree and threw it knocking the wand out his hand.

That’s when Ike got happy and said this is my chance. So Ike ha d his friends to distract Michael. So they all began picking up apples and throwing them at Michael. So Ike quickly ran over and grabbed the wand and with one wave Michael turned to ashes.

As soon as all of his ashes dropped to the ground something miraculous happened. First the sun came out, and then it started to rain. In all of the sudden fruits and vegetable grew from the ground. All the seeds Tyvonne had been planting weren’t a waste of time. So they fed everybody in the land. They even changed the name of the to Coventre. No one ever starved again and the people were happy.
