Shh…
I’m hunting my sister,
Here’s a description of her,
she has fangs and claws,
and scales all over,
I only have a slingshot to defend myself.
Shh…
I’m hunting my brother,
here’s a description of him:
he has 5 ft long fangs,
1 ft long claws,
2 ox horns at the side of his head,
with scales all over…
there he is!
fire!
yuck!
pu!
gag!
Max wins!

I really like this! it's interesting and I can just imagine the two little kids sneaking around, imagining their siblings as something they want to attack. I do suggest making more variety in the descriptions of the siblings, but that's it. Good job! :)
