Kylie, Kala and the dreaded Bunyip

Kala, meaning forest, was sat by the fire waiting for her friend kylie to come back from the stream but she never returned! Kylie was lost so she tried to make a fire by the green bushy coolibah trees. Kala was really worried about Kylie and decided to go out looking for her. Kylie stared at the fast crashing waterfall and listened to the baby kookaburra’s tweet and croak just wishing for somebody to find her. Kala set off to search for Kylie.

As dawn broke Kala was still looking for Kylie. Suddenly she saw a dark shadow.And before she new it a huge man eating Bunyip thrust out of the water. It had bright red eyes a bright red beak and bright red claws. His scales where deep green and he had teeth as sharp as daggers. Luckily Kala escaped from the Bunyip but ran into a dark, dirty cave and found Kylie what would happen next?
"Kala your here help me!" wailed Kylie.
"Come out from there, come to me!" shouted Kala
“I can't!” said Kylie

Kala carried Kylie out of the old, dirty, broken cave and as soon as they were about to leave the cave, which was once a Bunyips home, came crashing down. Thankfully Kala and Kylie got out of the cave and then Kala carried Kylie into a rabbits burrow although it was guarded by red fiery baby Bunyips. They couldent breath fire quite yet so they wernt as dangerous. Although they had teeth as sharp as daggers. Kylie was worried whether they would make it back or not but Kala had a mischievous plan she said “pass me thoughs twigs pass me that rope” and soon she would have the baby Bunyips. Wrapped up in rope “come on” screeched Kala she lit up her sticks and one by one they threw them at the Bunyips and the baby Bunyips homes the hole place lit up in flames.

Kylie and Kala managed to escape from the fire ,but there was no way out of the evil sticky gum trees. The twigs were as slimy as a snake that wrapped around you and squeezed you if you dared to move. Suddenly Kylie heard a fighting noise in the distance.
“Kala, Kala!” she screamed
“The tribe there hear to save us”. The wonderful tribe were hear. They lit up there candles and charged towards the trees. All Kala and Kylie could do was wait while the horrendous scene of fire and lightning proceeded through the night.

Finally as the sun rose the trees had gone the tribe were at there usual camp and Kala and Kylie woke up to find that they were back at the stream where they started and this place was a place of mystery stayed a mystery and the tribe acted like nothing ever happened and the Bunyips bones were never found again!
