Fire Fighter is a brave and kind boy. He wears a bright red jacket and hat. He carries a small shiny hose. He lives near a tall gray volcano. The volcano stands above a quiet village. Fire Fighter helps everyone every day. He puts out small fires swiftly. The villagers know they can trust him. They wave and smile when he passes. One morning the volcano shivered awake. It felt grumpy and puffed out smoke. The ground shook with heavy rumble. The villagers looked up with big eyes. They felt fear in each heart. They ran to the town square. Fire Fighter saw the rising smoke. He took his shiny hose and bucket. He climbed the soft black path. He climbed with steady careful steps. The volcano growled deep from its core. Lava glowed inside like orange stars. Fire Fighter held his hose tight. He whispered, “I will help you.” Steam and water mixed in soft clouds. The rock cooled under gentle streams. But the volcano still felt restless. A figure appeared on a sunlit rock. It was Sun Knight in golden armor. He rode a bright glowing bird. Fire shone from his gleaming sword. He aimed his sword at the sky. He shouted, “Let the fire roar!” The volcano trembled more than before. Smoke turned darker and thick. Villagers trembled and closed shuttered doors. Fire Fighter felt worry in his heart. He thought, “I must be brave.” Adventurer fox friend arrived at his side. The fox has soft orange fur. Fox wears a little blue scarf. Fox holds a glowing lantern. Fox says, “I am here to help.” Fire Fighter smiles at the fox. They stand together facing the Knight. Fire Fighter steps forward with courage. He sprays water with gentle care. The foam forms puffy white clouds. He circles around the hot stones. The volcano begins to calm softly. The Knight’s sword dimmed and cooled. The glowing bird flew away. The Knight bowed and vanished bright. Steam rose in lazy lazy puffs. The earth stopped shaking at last. Fire Fighter and fox hugged tightly. The villagers came out to cheer. They sang a sweet happy song. Children danced in the fresh breeze. The sky turned a soft blue. Rainbows arched above the volcano peak. Fire Fighter felt proud and happy. He felt kindness had great power. The mayor gave him a medal. It was a bright shining shell. Fox sniffed the medal with joy. Together they walked down to town. Everyone clapped and called their names. Fire Fighter heard “Bravo!” all day. He looked up at the volcano. It smiled with quiet glowing light. Fire Fighter waved a final goodbye. He whispered, “Thank you my friend.” The day ended with peace and calm. Fire Fighter and fox went home. They slept under soft quilt and moon. They dreamed of gentle rain and rainbows. They dreamed of caring hearts and smiles. The end of a brave bright tale.
