The smashing and crashing of rocks raged through the forest as the tribe of Shaun began construction. On the edge of the boulder-heaving tribe stood a thin, young, and curious boy with dark blue eyes, shaggy brown hair, and a brown animal skin acting as shirts and pants.
"Hey, what are you doing up there?!" shouted Shaun the tribe leader as she spotted the kid in the trees.
"I'm exploring, what else do you expect me to do?" I yelled back. Since I wasn't old enough, or strong enough, to heave the river stones through the forest with the tribe I spent every day looking through the forest deeper and deeper every time.
"Well stay out of trouble Shewn!" and Shewn was indeed the young boys name.
I crashed through the forest looking left and right not afraid to be heard because the tribe's giant-like stones always droned out every bit of sound left. Then I heard a small buzzing to my right. How could a buzz survive this raucous? I looked over to my right and there stood a cave with a raccoon edging to it hoping to eat one of the sweet plants on the outside of the eerie hole's mouth. Once he walked too close, a dark blue ball of light sprang from the cave and surrounded the petrified creature.
For a moment I saw nothing but a swirl of blue until the evil mist left. All that was left of the once furry animal was cold, scratched stone.

Once I had crashed through the whole forest back to the tribe's camp, I saw our creation. Stonehenge, was almost finished after years of work, started even before I was born. Shauna, our tribe leader, said it would keep evil away but I did not believe her.
"Everyone, dark blue evil lights of energy are coming to attack!" I yelled as I cupped my hands together. For a moment all I got was questioning stares until a gentle blue glow started flashing from the forest. Then, everyone started panicking like a horde of rhinos. There was yelling, screams, and shatters as people rushed to collect their things.
But, it all ceased when Shauna stepped into stonehenge and exclaimed," They won't get anyone in here!", for a moment everyone believed here and almost stepped in to the ring but that thought ended when a giant wave of blue light crashed onto stonehenge and circled around it for a couple of seconds like it was draining energy from the area. Then the swirl of blue flew back up. No one saw Shauna, except for me. A new stone was standing in the middle of the ring slightly crumbled with what seemed to be fear and I knew Shana had had the same fast as the raccoon.
The wall of blue was about to come back down and that got everyone moving. Then the tribe of Shauna left stonehenge forever, running in a state of shock and fear, or as I called it from then on Stormhenge.
