Title: How The Rattlesnake got Its Rattle
Once upon a long time ago, there lived a man named Joe. Joe was among the nicest of all the people of Arizona. He would try to help everyone that he could and he was never angry. He was not married cause his old girlfriend died back in highschool and he never could love anyone like he loved her so he wouldn't get married to no one. So he dedicated his life to be nice to everyone so that when he dies he would met his girlfriend again in heaven.
Well everyone in town liked Joe except Susan. Susan was in charge of the magic shop down the street from Joe's house. She would always watch him help people and it got her mad because she did not have any friends. And was probably the most hated woman in the whole town. She wanted to make everyone hate Joe so she went down to her shop to make a potion.
The next day Joe was at his house watching TV. When all of a sudden Susan called him and asked him to meet her down at the old abandoned farm at night. Joe would have told her no but he never met Susan and he wanted to be her friend.
It was night and all u could hear was the silent breeze of the wind blowing. Joe walked down to the abandoned farm and called out Susan's name at least ten times. But he was unaware that she was sneaking up behind him. He turned around and was going to go home when all of a sudden she threw magic dust at him.
As soon as the magic dust touched him it turned him into a snake. She had planned the snake to be a ordinary snake. But since he was so nice he got a rattle at the end of his body. He got it so he could warn people when he was about to bite. He didn't want to bit anyone but it was his instinct. So the best thing for him is to at least warn people before he strikes.
When Susan was about to leave she began laughing at him and he struck at her she was struck. She had time to leave but she was unaware when a snake rattles his rattler it is about to strike so she died a long painful death. And that is how the rattlesnake got its rattler.
