Spanish Story

I wrote this story for my Spanish III class. I posted it in English first and the final Spanish draft is below that. It's just a short story, but just roll with it.

Roberto and the Dragon
Roberto and Margarita were best friends. They both liked to run. Wherever Margarita would run, Roberto would follow. They would run to church and they would run to school. They would run to the park and they would run on the beach. They ran everywhere. But one day, Margarita disappeared. Roberto ran to the church, but she was not there. He ran to the park, but Margarita was no where to be found. Roberto was sad. He started to cry. But then Roberto heard a huge roar from behind him. He turned around and saw a huge green dragon. In the dragon’s claws was Margarita. Margarita screamed and cried, but Roberto could not reach her. The dragon looked at Roberto with its blood red eyes and roared some more. Roberto was scared, but he stood up and faced the dragon. The dragon flew at Roberto and blew flames at him, but Roberto was too fast for the dragon to catch. The dragon flew and chased Roberto, but he could never catch him. After 3 hours of chasing, the dragon gave up and released Margarita. Margarita ran to Roberto and gave him a big hug. After 2 hours of hugging, Margarita and Roberto went home. But this time they walked home, and they held hands the whole way.

Pero este vez caminaron a casa, y están cogidos de las manos todo el camino a casa.
