Title: The Magical Cave

As I walked into the cave, the first thing I noticed was how dark it was. I could barely see two inches in front of my face because the only thing surrounding me was heavy, dusty, misty darkness that felt like a thick blanket. The next thing I noticed was how warm it was. I rolled up my sleeves and wiped my damp forehead. Suddenly there was a huge crash behind me, and I nervously whipped around. The door to the cave was blocked by a large gray boulder, letting not even the tiniest bits of sun show through. I had to feel my way around the pitch black, but the rough stone wall cut my hands. Suddenly I bumped into something hard, and tumbled backwards onto the hard, cold cement floor. I was horrified to see a great yellow eye suddenly appear! The iris was yellow, and had a bright red pupil. Next I saw a huge bright orange nose beneath it, then a huge empty hole that I supposed to be the thing's mouth. A cold chill rolled down my spine, and I was too terrified to move or speak. Suddenly the thing reared up and roared, shaking the walls of the cave. I realized it was a dragon! Its emerald green scales gleamed in the dim light that its eyes provided. I screamed and began to run for my life, with the dragon following close behind on all fours. I felt something hot brush inches past my cheek, and saw red-hot fire just miss me! I sped for my life, dodging the dragon's razor-sharp, shining black claws and other breaths of fire. I saw a ray of light up ahead, and put on top speed. With all my might, I pushed the huge boulder aside and ran out of the horrible cave just in time to see the dragon trapped inside, never for me to see again.
