The Black Knight

      Long ago there was a king and a queen named Arthur and Mary. They had two sons, one was a powerful knight named Josh, while the other one named Drake was finding a horse to ride. The king wouldn't let the younger son be a knight because he didn't take things seriously. One day Drake jumped out his window, and ran into the forest. The forest was full of creatures like owls, termites and other insects. Surprisingly he found a black horse. King and queen were to busy training other people that they forgot about their son. Drake trained the horse to only to obey him. Later that day the King and queen noticed that Drake was missing. The king sent Josh to find Drake. Josh came back with nothing but a scrap of Drake's clothing in the woods. With that known the king sent several of his best knights into the forest. Drake rode his horse to a pit. He took large boulders and made a cave. He put vines at the opening so it would be like a door. The cave was large enough to fit his horse, himself and a place to eat and sleep. Drake saw the knights looking for him so he made no noise and went to sleep. Later that day one knight had been killed by a black widow. Drake took the knight's armor that was in perfect condition, found some black ink and spilled ink all over the armor. Then he went to a river to wash the armor. The ink was all over the armor so it wasn't washed away. When he took the armor out of the river he smelt the armor. The armor didn't smell like ink any more so he the armor. After that he buried the man and ran back to his cave. The king and queen assumed Drake was dead. They threw a sword into the forest to protect himself if he was still alive. Drake found the sword. It was a black sword that had black gems on the hilt. He found a rock shaped like a shield. He took the rock and placed a little handle made out of extra chains from his armor. He also spilled ink over the shield and washed it in a river. He rode his horse around the forest and heard that other knights were going to attack Camelot. He put on his helmet and made armor for his horse with leather he got from cows.  He returned to Camelot and people were screaming for the king. The king came and sent Josh to battle Drake. Drake took of his helmet and everyone in the kingdom was shocked. He told the village that other knights were going to attack the kingdom. The king sent a big line of knights to guard the village. Drake was now a true knight!!! When the other knights came they broke the line of defense. Drake and Josh hid behind the trees. They attacked at the same time... All the other knights fell to the ground!!! The king threw them into the dungeon and Camelot was no longer in danger.  Drake was now nicknamed the black knight.
