“The Adventure of Ripjaw"

 Afton
        Ripjaw is a selfish half-shark half-man, but wont’ admit it. He lives in a dark cave beneath the waves where the walls have collapsed around the entrance. There’s a crevice that he can slip through in time of need- which can include evil deeds or good ones depending on his level boredom.
        Lately he’s been trying to get his braces off. Sometimes his intelligence is used for bad things . In this way, Ripjaw attempts to remove the braces with his fins, but they are so slimy that he can’t get a grip. Ripjaw was disgusted with himself and frustrated to no end. He takes his anger out by ripping doll’s heads off. This makes sense because he has to fulfill the first part of his name. Ironically, he is nicknamed, “Jaws”
        After ripping the heads of several dolls, Ripjaw tries to get his braces off yet again. He gets the brilliant idea to ask Mr. Magic’s underwater submarine. When he arrived, Mr. Magic was waiting at the helm.
        “Hello, I have been expecting you, Ripjaw,” Mr. Magic said.
        “Please, call me ‘Jaws’ . Where’s the potion?”
        “Right here,” Mr. Magic said.
        Then he pulled the potion out from beneath his waistcoat.
        “Drink it slowly or you will lose your teeth,” Mr. Magic warned.
        “Yeah, yeah,” Ripjaw replied knowing full well that he’d do what ever it took to get those braces off.
        So he went back to his cave and drank the potion, but he drank it too fast and lost all of his teeth—However, sharks do after grow a new set when they need one. So all was not lost for Ripjaw.
