  Lough Derg Monster

One day two children Ben and Susan were walking to school when they saw splashes coming from the water. They went over to get a better look. When they got to the edge they looked in and saw a big green monster with yellow eyes. It started to come up to the surface. The children were very frightened. They ran over and hid behind a rock. The monster followed them and said "I am not going to hurt you". The children came out from behind the rock very slowly because they were still a little scared of the monster.

Ben asked "Who or what are you?". The monster replied "I am the Lough Derg monster and who are you?" "I am Ben", "And I am Susan". "Where are you going?" said the monster. "We are going to school", they said."We'd better go Ben otherwise we will be late". "Goodbye" the children shouted as they ran down.

When they got to school they told the teacher all about the monster but she said "There is no such thing as the Lough Derg monster, it must be your imagination". "But we did see the monster", but the teacher still didn't believe them. "We really did", they pleaded. "That's enough!" said the teacher, getting angry.
