What happens when you relocate from the forest of Asia to the cities, hear screams from your neighbours at night, and discover a monster is killing people?
Allona has X-ray vision, exceptional hearing, and forest-trained hunting skills. When the monster starts taking neighbours, she doesn't panic. She plans.
Find where the monster is. Go behind it. Take it by surprise. Kill it.
The next day: mission complete. People safe. Allona relieved.
This is strategic storytelling stripped to essential elements—proving what 465 children have taught us: when given complete freedom, children write with remarkable clarity and purpose.
WHY THIS STORY MATTERS
Strategic Planning: Four-step hunter methodology—locate, position, timing, execute
Narrative Efficiency: No wasted words. Story says exactly what it needs to say.
Community Motivation: "Relieved and happy because people are safe"—not personal glory, but community protection
Origin Depth: "Used to live in forest of Asia"—skills have source, not random powers
Outcome Over Process: "The next day, she succeeds"—battle implied, result stated
This author knows: the fight isn't the story. The outcome is the story.
THE RESEARCH
465 children. 9 schools. 100% engagement.
When we stop forcing word counts and description requirements, children write what matters: purpose-driven action, strategic thinking, community protection.
Tom Hirst (BBC News): "Even kids who don't like writing didn't want to stop."
Because action writers aren't reluctant. They're efficient.
