Aram's story for "Just Keep Writing"

Purple beast

I chased him through the jungle. The purple beast he shouted. It looks like he banged into everything he saw. Must be night but for me, all I can see is bright gold.I chewed him up but with every bite, I can feel my tooth shaking like it’s trying to escape, but like every victim, it stays for another meal. As everything in this Jungle tries to run like a coward way from me.

I run in the jungle using what you call knuckle-walking. Chasing any lion. King of the jungle they say.More like a citizen of the jungle. Not even they stand in the path of the purple beast. I shall rule. That is what the monkeys thought when they shouted the purple beast. I was called gorilla king by the gorillas but I would rather be called the lord of the Jungle. As I chased the car I could see bright light beyond the Jungle. The path got more narrow by the second. I caught the car at the edge of the Jungle. I could not believe what I saw.

It was horrific, I could see the disgusted faces on the men. What were they wearing? Some kind of camouflage suit, but it was too bright to see. So may cars and bulldozers.”THEY ARE GOING TO DESTROY THE JUNGLE,” I shouted. I think they heard me but to them, it’s a roar. I need to warn the entire jungle. I rushed through the narrow path but I felt something on my shoulder. I looked and it was a dart. What monsters. All I can remember is I fainted on the walkway. What is going to happen to me? Will they bring me to a science lab to be tested.

My eyes slowly opened, blind to the fact the person was talking,” we need to dance,” I think he said. I was in a cart with iron bars. I realized the cart started to move on a stage with people sitting in sits in front of the stage. I shook my head, alright now I am fully awake.”$100 here.$200 there,$300,$500 there,$1000 to him,$2500 to her,$5000 to him. Anyone else, nope well that's it,” the men said. Well, this is it. The end of the purple beast’s reign of terror. 

They rolled the cart to the person who spent $5000.They opened the cage to push me using a stick, into the connected cage but I saw a small opening of the connection. I pushed the cages open and sprinted out of the tent and luckily I was only at the campsite. I rushed to the jungle and through the narrow path. Everything was terrified but then I remembered about the Gorillaz. I am their king after all they shall obey. We shall go to war and win but then all of a sudden, the most tragic thing happened. My tooth came out. Something finally escapes me.
