By a large cactus was the dreaded fire breathing bull. He was gray with red eyes and giant horns. The bull moved in front of a locked pen. Hank looked at Kimi from the other side of the pen.

The bull smoked up the Duke's clothing. "I'll burn you down, if you take one step to the pen."

The Duke hung his head. "Okay, what do you want?" "I want everything you have. I want to be the Duke and pen you up like a cow!"
"Don't do it Dad," Hank said.
"I have no choice."

Kimi wasn't going to let the bull win. She went to the water pump picked up one of the old tin can. Kimi pumped the water in. "I'll put his fire out."

Kimi walked right up to the fire breathing bull and threw the water right in his face. The bull was angry. "It will take me day's to dry out," he yelled. He ran after Kimi, but went head first into a cactus.

The bull, who no longer was fire breathing, moaned and groaned. "I give up."
