My Taniwha by Wynta

My Taniwha 

My taniwha is as black as the shadows and it's as big as the Kraken. It has strong tentacles that have a massive pull. Its teeth are so sharp that it can bite through diamonds and emeralds. My taniwha legs are so strong that it can kick enemies really hard. Its jaw is also very strong because it eats whales. Sometimes it goes into the sky to catch birds like seagulls and eagles. His name is Doug and he is a couple 1000 years old. Sometimes depending on the weather he will turn brighter than ever. He is a shapeshifter and he can be big and small. I like my taniwha because its really cool but I am glad that it is not real.
