The dragon, the witch and the ugly barber

There was once a beautiful princess, which was kidnapped by an ugly witch and closed in a high, dark tower. A huge, frightening dragon lived near it and ate everyone, who had come around. The princess felt very lonely and bored. She could only sit and cry.

One night an old barber was walking to town to earn some money. He sat under a tree to have some reset and he slowly fell asleep. In his dream he heard a sweet, soft voice calling his name: “Come, come quickly and save me! Come, come quickly!” he woke up suddenly, but he couldn’t forget the voice. While he was thinking about it, he saw a wolf in the forest. It looked as if it was waiting for him. The barber, Tom was quite surprised, but he followed the animal. It took him to a high, enormous tower, standing inside the wood. He came closer and felt a strange, sulphury stink. A huge, green dragon flew towards him. It had very, very white, sharp teeth. Tom was petrified. Then he saw a sword lying on the grass. He took it and shouted at the dragon. It... it fainted. The barber ran to it and killed the beasty. He looked around and vomited due blood, which was everywhere.

Then he came into the building. There was a room upstairs, where the princess lived. He sick by the view, because Tom was very ugly.

It all finished quite happily, but the princess was ill.
