THE BRAVE KNIGHT

Early one morning, the brave knight Sir Ticklitine heard strange noises. The noises came from the cave trolls trying to invade the castle to steal the secret treasure. Suddenly, a man with 3 faces got into the castle of the valley of the snow. The man opened the treasure chest and found… a dog?!?! The man was extremely confused but then he thought to himself that the treasure was the dog! He knew there was something special about it, why else would the king hide it? The knight finally arrived in the treasure room to defend the treasure but then he got knocked out and kidnapped by the trolls. A few hours later, he woke up in the  airplane trunk!

-How did I end up here?!?!- He thought to himself. The brave knight escaped and grabbed the treasure then he jumped out of the plane with a stolen parachute, when he tried to activate the parachute he realised it was a toy parachute. He fell fast and just before he hit the ground he woke up from his nightmare “Oh great heavens! It was all just a dream… or was it?”

SPECIAL MAGNOLIA

Once upon a time there was a fairy world which was in danger, the creatures were sick and two gnomes in love were looking for a solution. Mommy Andriia was sick and gnome Kikinho was very sad.

-Kikinho, for me… save this world, promise me that at least you’re going to try, and you, Nono promise me you will protect me son from the dangers of this world.- asked Mommy Andriia.

-I promise Andriia, that I will protect him by going with him.- Promise Nono.

-No, Nono it is too dangerous!- Said Kikinho worried.

-Unfortunately for you, that is my choice !- answered back Nono and Kikinho shut up.

In this forest there is a time machine, in that one can travel to a time when magnolia, the plant that cured every ilness, stills exists and can save us- After Andriia said that, Kikinho and Nono travelled in the time machine, but it was much further back in the past.

-Are you ok Nono?- Asked Kikinho.

-Yes and you?-asked Nono back.

-I’m ok- said Kikinho. After that conversation a giant called Roben appeared and started chasing Nono and Kikinho.

-Weren’t Giants extinct?- asked Nono while running.

-Yes, probably we travelled to a more ancient time.

-Quick, go back to the time machine- Said Kikinho.

-Okay, let’s go!- replied Nono.

They quickly went back to the time machine and travelled to the future.

-Where are we?- Nono notice that there was a man that was really hot because he was too close to the fire. He was putting it down, something that fairies didn’t know that was possible.

-I want to do that- Said Nono.

-No, it’s dangerous and you can’t do that- answered Kikinho.

-If you don’t believe me, see for yourself- replied Nono.

Nono took the hose of the fireman Márrio and put down the fire.

-Wow, that’s my girl. I can’t believe I said she wasn’t capable of doing that, I’m such an idiot- Said Kikinho.

-Sometimes…- said Nono.

- Now we have to got back to the time machine- Said Nono after a big silence. Finally, Nono and Kikinho travelled to the right time, and there was an enchanted river that listens to your prayers and gives you what you want.

-Enchanted river, please give us the legendary magnolia to save our friends- implored Nono and Kikinho at the same time.

-Close your eyes- said the river, Kikinho and Nono closed their eyes and when they opened them, there was a reflection of the magnolia on the water. Therefore, Kikinho and Nono saved the fairy world. And Andriia, on Kikinho and Nono’s wedding, (yes, they got married) cryed on the sky. She was a fairy 

CAT

On a dreadful day, a cat was hanging out with his friends on an abandoned house, but one of them was very sad, he couldn´t find love! So, the cat went on his bike to find a love potion in the Planet of Love. When he arrived, he saw that the planet was full of colour and joy.

Suddenly, a robot started speaking to him, he had a big heart on his back and said:

-The love potion is in a cave nearby, but guarding that cave is a very big dragon, and to go inside the cave, you first must win a fight against him.

And so, he started to walk to the cave, when he got there, he started to fight for his life, but the dragon was too strong, the cat was already full of bruises and was being beaten up by the dragon. But then the cat had an idea, he called a boy, let’s name him Joe. And you may be wondering, why would a cat call Joe to win a dragon in a fight, since he’s so weak?

He called Joe to sing “Don’t worry, be happy” for two hours straight, and so the dragon would get possessed by his awful singing, and it actually worked! But when the cat picked up the potion, he started being silly and accidentally dropped it, all over Joe’s clothes! Joe looked at the cat, immediately fell in love with him and kissed him, and now Joe likes cats instead of women.

After leaving the airport, as it was night, a thief robbed her purse but a policewoman was there and helped her. Afterwards, she embarked on a submarine and arrived at the pony academy. And that’s the way my grandmother told me the story.

                The wise man went on a mission in his spaceship and found a new planet, where one of the keys was. In the new planet, he found a tower. Curious, he entered the tower and found a bad wolf that knew that the wise man had one of the keys, so he told him: -Find the treasure that’s in the labyrinth in the Magic Forest or I will take your wise man powers!

There was a pirate that had the other key because he robbed a very rich ship to find the treasure. When he entered the labyrinth, he saw the wise man stuck in there, and asked him: -Who are you?!

-I am Joséfilo, the wise man! I have the other key! I knew that you would come! Come on! Let’s try to open the treasure box!

They had lots of adventures in the labyrinth to reach the treasure, and when they arrived, they opened the big black box. When they looked back, they saw the bad wolf, that killed them, and kept the treasure. What a story that was!

It was Christmas day and the donkey was waiting for Santa Claus to come to the Island, but instead of reindeers, Santa came with a massive gang of aliens from Mars. They wanted to kidnap the poor animal and lock him in a cage on Mars. And… they got the donkey!

 They have now landed on mars but the donkey didn’t give up and was trying to leave the cage, he eventually figured a way out, but, suddenly, he noticed there was a seven-head monster waiting for him to leave the cage so he could eat him!

 The donkey was out of hope, fighting for his life, but, he lost his strength… he gave up. Then, out of nowhere, a sword flew to his hooves and he picked it up! He used the magical sword to kill the monster and the bad aliens. He then saved the “alien hypnotised” Santa Claus with the magic of the sword.

 They went back to Earth and finished giving presents to the good kids. All’s well that ends well…

ARRASTAR A ASA

     "O sentido é corrente: namorar, cortejar.

     A origem prende-se com um tipo de relação muito frequente na base de locuções populares, a comparação.

     Neste caso, a analogia é feita com os galos que, como se sabe, quando nos períodos de cio, arrastam a asa em torno das galinhas."

OVELHA RONHOSA

     "Constantemente proferida, deturpadamente, como "ovelha ranhosa" (o que não faz qualquer sentido), a expressão usa-se para indicar alguém que, numa família, degenera ou pessoa que não é bem aceite em determinado grupo.

     Esta aceção adequa-se ao "ronhosa" da frase, dado que a "ronha" é uma doença, espécie de sarna, que ataca vários animais, entre os quais, as ovelhas."
