Destino
In the land of Destino, there was a boy named Raphael. Raphael's family was very poor, and their farm was very small. They had to sell everything when his father died. Raphael had to do most of the work, with the help of his younger sister. The only things Raphael's mother knew was to clean and cook. When Raphael and his mother were able to sell some of their crops, they had to give half of their earnings to the king.
The king was a very greedy man. He gave no one anything. Everyone hated the king, but they were too scared to do anything. The only person who wasn't afraid of him was Raphael. Whenever Raphael told the Destionites that one day he will fight the king they just laughed. Raphael loved his family more than the world could show. Anyone who met Raphael knew his heart was mad out of gold.
One night Raphael had a dream. He dreamed that he would go into battle with the king, and he was the only one fighting. Earlier that day Raphael overheard the king, saying he was going to do, something horrible to make him richer.
The next day Raphael told the Destionites that he was going into war with the king. When they first heard it they started laughing, but when they saw him, standing there they stopped. Then he asked, if anyone would come with him. They all backed away. The towns people not helping only made him stronger.
Later that week everyone in Destino where saying their good-byes. Raphael was off to fight the king. Raphael had a long journey ahead of him. Raphael had finally got to the king's castle.
Raphael yelled up to the king, and told him he came to fight for the Destionites, when the king heard this he just laughed. When he finally stopped, he ordered his guards to put Raphael in the dungeon. When the guards came to get Raphael the draw bridge shook and the guards fell off, into the mote. Raphael yelled up again. The king was stunned. He thought Raphael would be in the dungeon. Raphael told the king he wasn't leaving without a fight. The king thought Raphael was a weak boy, and wouldn't do much harm.
Raphael told the king he would come back tomorrow, and that's when the war will truly begin. That night Raphael had another dream. He dreamed that each day he would get stronger and stronger, and the king would get weaker and weaker. Dawn finally came. Everything was quite. Birds were awake yet not chirping. Deer were still. The wind wasn't whistling. It seemed like nature had paused. Mother nature was in for a big surprise.
Raphael was standing in front of the castle. The king was so sure he was going to win, that he told Raphael whoever won will get to be king, and whoever lost will get to be there slave until they die. Raphael told the king there would be no weapons. This made the king more sure of himself.
The war lasted 7 days. On the 7th day, the king was so weak, he could barely walk without stumbling. On the 7th day Raphael was so strong he could lift up 5 times his weight. Raphael became king and the old king became a Destionite. Raphael, his family and the Destionites lived happily ever after.
