Creative Writing: The Peach Tree

Deep within the most dangerous place on the planes of heaven, one would find two things. A lake, next to the lake a peach tree, on this peach tree a lone fruit blossomed. This tree holds the Peach of Heaven blossoming only one every 500,000 years. Next to the tree was Shen-Shi lake this lake a rather ordinary one in heaven, yet no man or beast would dare trespass here.

The guardian of the peach tree lived in Lake Shen-Shi, a giant fish no one knew how big this fish truly was. Measuring thousands of li this fishes name was Kun, a peaceful fish. Only few knew this but if one were to come ask Kun for advice, he would burst through the lake and turn into a magnificent bird. This bird so big it seemed as if it had swallowed the sun.

The only fact they knew about this mysterious creature was that they both lived in Lake Shen-Shi and, wherever Peng went Kun would follow.

The little fish seemed as if he was thinking about what Kun just said, it took a long while before he spoke again.

Surprised by the question Kun looked at the little fish once

They fought against the waterfall trying to climb it, but soon they caught the attention of demons. These demons laughing at the poor fish increased the height of the waterfall however, even though this happened one little fish never gave up. Finally it reached the top of the fall, noticing the fishes determination the heavens turned this little fish into a giant dragon. Do you think this little fish wanted to be a dragon? In the end the little fish only wanted to climb the waterfall, but his destiny lied elsewhere now that little fish roams the heavens a dragon for all to
