And after a tiresome journey,
Of battle, of struggle, of doubt…
Our hero finally made it to the top.
Bow and arrow at rest,
Frozen sword iced out of the adventure.
Benji stares into the giant toad’s eyes,
Out of breath, but full of pride.
And without a flinch, he opens his mouth…
“I believe you have something that belongs to me now.”
Story by Mary Aravanis as a part of Benji's adventures short story.
