So yesterday, Dustin once again treated me with another of his awesome stories. The first story below is the unedited one that came straight from his nine-year-old hands, and the second is the version I spruced up a bit (in case you couldn't understand Dusty's little-kid grammar *haha*).
I remember someone asking me if these stories actually are written by little kids, so I'll just say it now: Yes, they come from the 1
st through 4th grades of my private school (mostly from Dustin—he's a kid after my own heart *biggrin*). Trust me, I don't think I'm talented enough to run all my sentences together they way they can.
And please, please, please—Dustin
loves when I read his reviews to him, so REVIEW! Do it for the kids!

Lestrade's Dog
Edited Version
written by Dustin, aka "Lestrade;" edited by me, Rin

One afternoon, Lestrade and Holmes were walking down a street in London when, suddenly, they heard a faint whine. They looked round themselves and saw a neglected German shepherd.

Lestrade said, "Let's take it home."

So they did, and for the first two months, it was a good dog. Then, without warning, he started barking at people that walked by the couch where he liked to lay. One day the dog even attacked Holmes! So Lestrade was forced to kill the dog with his shotgun (er…revolver. *hehe*).

They went to the pound and got two new dogs, both about a week old. The new animals were a golden retriever and a blood hound. Holmes took the blood hound, and Lestrade the golden retriever. Their names were Marley and Sarge; the golden retriever's name was Marley and the blood hound's name Sarge. Holmes and Lestrade had the dogs all their lives and all the dogs' lives.

Watson also got a Rottweiler named Butcher, and Irene bought a golden retriever named Max.

If you are wondering why there was not any action, I just wanted to have a story of peace.

P. S. I am not a tree hugger.


And there you have it, folks! Another epic tale from the vaults of the BCS Irregulars!

Anyway, I hope you liked! And please leave a review for Dustin!

Also, two things: 1. Did this story make you laugh as much as me? Seriously, I was sitting at my desk, giggling at the most serious part of class while reading this for the first time. Watson got a Rottweiler…*wipes hysterical tears and attempts to somber up* You'd have to know this cool kid, seriously. 2. Irene made a surprise appearance in the above story for the simple reason that yours truly has been designated Irene Adler by the BCS Irregulars, and I happen to have a fat golden retriever named Max in real-life who is, presently, sitting at my feet and begging for the doggy dinner he already ate an hour ago...

*ahem*

Anyway, I hope you liked. And please leave a review for Dustin!
