Dragon Story Episodes
The Fledgling Circus
Once upon a time, a fledgling
dragon befriended a young boy.
The two loved fun above all else,
and each morning, they greeted
each other in the exact same way:
"Ready for some tomfoolery?"
They played tag, they played hide-
and-seek, they wrought mischief on
adults unlike any prank history had
seen. There was seemingly no end
to their creativity.
One day, a bright and colorful tent
was erected in the boy's village.
It was their first encounter ever
with a circus.
Clearly this was tomfoolery on a
whole new level!
They couldn't get enough of the
spectacle. There was the flying
trapeze, the knife throwing, and
even the fearsome beast tamers.
Oh, and let us not forget the
clownfoolery (as they soon took
to calling it.) Yes, the boy and
his dragon were instantly in love.
"The big top is tops!" cried the boy.
"We should join up!" said the dragon.
And thus was a small—but special—
dragon-taming duo born.
The two started by regaling the
village with feats they had devised.
Though it wasn't fancy, both boy and
dragon knew they had a bona fide
circus show on their hands.
Tomfoolery was had in spades...
but like all shows, theirs eventually
had to come to an end.
It was a simple, inexorable fact,
but they were too young to know
or expect it...
Enamored with the big top, the
boy-and-dragon duo had taken to
regaling the village with their own
unique circus show.
Spring sprung, summer sweltered,
fall fell, and then came the chill of
winter—but they continued their act
tirelessly no matter the season.
So when the first rejection came,
it was like the snap of someone's
fingers ruining a perfect daydream.
"Ready for some tomfoolery?" asked
the dragon one glorious day.
"I can't," replied the boy. "I have to
help around the house."
"Ready for some tomfoolery?"
"I can't. I have to watch my
children."
"Ready for some tomfoolery?"
"I can't. I just...can't. These old bones
can't handle such antics anymore."
All boys must grow up. All dragons
too, of course, but the boy aged
more quickly—from the dragon's
perspective, cruelly so.
What had happened to his spry
partner in crime? He became too big,
too busy, and too broken to perform.
And then, just like that...he was gone.
The dragon tried to forget his
sadness by forgetting his greatest
source of joy—the circus.
But such things are not so easily
forgotten.
"I'm ready for some tomfoolery,"
he thought.
His heart begged for those days to
return, for just one more chance to
bring a smile to someone's face.
But the seasons crept by,
each more monotonous
and lonely than the last.
The dragon was ready to give up,
for he felt he would never have a
fun day again. But then...
"Why so glum, little drake?" said a
small voice. "Come with me!
We'll go see the circus!"
It had been untold years since the
dragon had heard that word. But he
went to see, and lo and behold, there
it was: the bright and colorful tent
that had once made his heart sing.
His eyes sparkled as he let out a
roar of joy.
Some time later, a spectacular circus
troupe became the talk of a certain
harbor town. And the stars were
a young girl...and her dragon.
On this very day, they'll be regaling
the town with tomfoolery on an
unprecedented scale.
Don't believe it? Then step right
through the pleats of that big tent
over there and see for yourself.
You can't miss it.
Hurry, now. They'll be raising the
curtain any moment...
