Once upon a time, there was a green dragon named Greg who lived in a colorful kingdom. One day, the king announced a painting competition, and everyone had to use the colors: red, blue, brown, yellow, pink, black, white and orange.
Greg was very excited to participate, but he didn't know how to paint. So, he went to ask his friend, a brown bear named Bob, for help. Bob was a great painter, but he was also very mischievous. He decided to play a trick on Greg.
Bob mixed all the colors together and gave them to Greg, telling him to paint a beautiful picture. But when Greg started painting, the picture turned out to be a mess of every color possible!
Greg was so embarrassed that he ran away from the kingdom and hid in the forest. But as he looked at his "messy" painting, he realized it was actually quite pretty. It was filled with different shades of every color, creating a beautiful rainbow.
Greg returned to the kingdom and showed his painting to the king. The king was so impressed that he declared Greg the winner of the competition. From then on, Greg became known as the greatest painter in the kingdom, and his messy painting was displayed in the palace for everyone to see.
The End.
