The Wolf Constellation by Kaira Jones


On an island far away in the middle of the large ocean where no one could find it, lived a young Goddess. She lived alone since there was no others on the island and she would walk along the white sand beaches every night when the sky turned pink and hummed softly to herself. It was unfair to her that she was alone on that small island when everyone else had another to be with, if there was anyone else out there. At this she feared; she feared that she was the only one left and no one else would ever come to save her from her lifetime of loneliness.


One night, while walking along the water line, a wolf sounded out in the distance, a sound that the young Goddess had never heard before. She waited to hear the sound again to prove that she hadn’t imagined it. Sounding again, the wolf made a low howl that drug out for a few long moments. The young Goddess savored the moment, finally knowing that she wasn’t alone.


It was an extraordinary feeling, something the young Goddess had never felt before. The feeling of knowing she wasn’t alone anymore. For once in her life, she felt…happy.


Late at night, in the frigid cold, the young Goddess decided to venture out and find the lone wolf. It’d be an adventure, she told herself. So the next morning, she would set out to find him.


But the young Goddess’ dreams betrayed her. The wolf’s howl haunted her in her sleep. The wolf was a dusty gray with yellow, frightened eyes. This frightened her. What if the wolf ran away from her? What if she never found him? Then she’d be stranded in the middle of her island with no clue where she could possibly be. She couldn’t let this happen. She’d leave tonight.


The young goddess shot straight up in bed and started getting herself together before heading straight into the large jungle of green. It was still dark still and the cover of trees wasn’t helping the lighting. The only light on the island came from the huge moon shining over the ocean.

The young Goddess traveled for days and nights without finding the wolf. One night, she put a constellation in the sky indicating a waol so that maybe he'd wonder forward to her in the night. This is how this constellation came to be.

Mason G Apple constellation



The myth behind this is the almighty Obama took a bite out of the side of this apple. He was eating an apple one day and the great almighty hawk came and scared him and he dropped the apple and had only taken one bite out of it. This is a very famous myth in space many scientists look for this constellation and study it to learn a lot more about it. Also, this constellation has a blue shade to it so it really stands out. There is a whole in the middle of the apple which the myth behind that is when the hawk came there was a worm on him and when he flew down by Obama a worm fell off of him and after he dropped the apple the worm found his way to the apple and ate out the middle. The red dot in the middle is the planet called Mars so it is red. In the winter there is no red dot in the middle there is a black one. The black dot is a black whole many light years away from the constellation but you can still see it. Usually a black whole sucks everything around it in but the apple constellation is very large so it can’t suck it in. Also, in the spring the constellation is hard to spot because it is not in the spot where it is in all the other seasons. It also is much farther away.


There are a few ways you can locate this constellation from earth. To find this constellation you find that north star and it's the tip of the stem of the apple. Also, in the winter there is a big black dot in the middle so it should be pretty easy to spot. The black dot is a large black whole many light years away from this constellation. Also, in all of the other seasons there is a red dot which is Mars and that is easy to spot. Also all the stars in this constellation are blue which also makes it easy to spot.


There are a few well known things in this constellation. The north star is the only well known star in this constellation. This star is at the tip of the stem and is the brightest star in the constellation. Mars is the only planet that is involved in the apple constellation. You see Mars in summer, spring, and fall. In the winter it is a black dot because there is a black whole many light years away which is why it doesn’t get sucked in. During summer, spring, and fall Mars is less than 25 light years away and it is very big and bright.


I think that most parts of space are very interesting. To see constellation you have to have a very big imagination. I would really want to see what it would be like without any gravity and what the moon fells like. Also I would like to play a basketball game on the moon because it would be very fun to dunk . space is very cool and I think we should study it more than we have and try to go places that we haven’t ever been.

King Tynamba by Emma J.



Each star in the King Tynamba constellation comes from a Mexican/ British warrior who fought in the Battle of Guadalupaba. Aba was the leader of all this nonsense. He lead his warrior pack all the way through the valleys, across the rivers, and up the mountains to fight in a battle of a life time. His warrior pack consisted of the following; Vorkaba, Zodiacaba, Cleoaba, and Zedaba. No one knew what these warriors were capable of. With their exotic features and mysterious behaviors, they were perfect for an epic battle like this.


As they reached their enemies, Ancient Egyptians, war did not break out right that instant. Aba was stuck with a syndrome called Tynambacrotis. It comes from the Ancient Egyptian beetle, Tynamba. This name goes back to the early 700’s. They have big wide wings, a long tail, short stubby feet, and sharp spikes on its head. These sympathetic creatures were never seen or thought of as scary attacking animals, until one day when one of the biggest Tynambas in the world was let loose by the crazy villain, King Henry Charles III. He was King of all of Egypt and was out to get everyone that lived in this royal country. This sympathetic creature turned into a vicious man eating animal. The King then turned every Tynamba into a ferocious creature. They killed all but 100 people in the town. Only a few live to this day, but they are very rare to find around their hometown now. That’s why it was very strange when the warrior pack and the Ancient Egyptians found out that Aba was diagnosed with this disease. Instead of going on to the battle, the Egyptians decided to help Aba out because this problem was not easy to cure and was very deadly.


On one of the most scorching days in all of Egypt’s past, the Tynamba that made Aba sickly struck all the warriors along with the Egyptians. He was about 10 feet tall with a 6 foot long tail. His wing span was about 15 feet and the size of his feet was the length of my legs. This evil nemesis fought with strength and didn’t give up. Vorkaba, Zodiacaba, Cleoaba, and Zedaba created a plan to shut this monster down and make sure he never comes back. When it came time for these warriors to pursue their plan, they fought with more power than they thought possible. They took down the Tynamba in no time and everyone praised these strong men. They made history in Egypt and they would never be forgotten.


The constellation in the sky is of the Tynamba that was taken down by the warriors, and the warriors make up this constellation. You can see this bright shining constellation in the sky every night wherever you go. Therefore, this constellation is not a seasonal constellation, it is a year round constellation. If you look straight up in the sky, you will see Zodiacaba, the brightest star in the bunch because it was he who made the plan to attack the Tynamba. From that star you will be able to find the shape of the great, the big, King Tynamba. The Tynamba stands straight up showing the pride of the warriors who took him down. He is easy to spot and is by far the most interesting constellation in the sky.

Cerberus by Aspen J.

Cerberus the Great Hell Hound, guardian of the Underworld is a frightful beast. It posses 3 terrible heads and posses dark powers. But is that all that this beast has? No, in fact Cerberus isn't just the Hell Hound of the Underworld but something much greater, sinister, evil, dark, and eternal. Cerberus is actually made up of the three powers of Lord Dracula, the Eternal No-Life King. But how did something so evil become a constellation in the night sky? I'll tell you how this happened.

Thousands upon, thousands of years ago there was a time of darkness and blood. War ravaged everywhere, friends and family were put against each other for amusement and control over the other. Within all this evil, darkness and blood came a being of powerful proportions. He was dead but still could walk among and drink the blood of the living. He also wielded power that could kill stands in his way. Some called him a monster, others called him Dominus, Count, Lord, King or for a unlucky few master. But we all know what he was called, the vampire Dracula.

Dracula didn't become Lord until well over 500 years have passed, when all the wars have ceased and people didn't have to fight unless they really needed to. So why did this undead man wait for so long? It was because he knew the humans would be vulnerable after hundreds of hundreds of years of fighting. So he bidded his time, killed only when he needed to feed and waited.

Then he struck, killing and taking control of every empire he could get, some resisted others gave in. He was their Lord, the judge, jury and executioner of their lives. Nobody thought the No-Life King could be destroyed, that is until a Vatican traveling priest came to his Empire.

His name was Abel Nightroad, he was commissioned to go to Transylvania, or as Dracula called it the New Human Empire, to remove the Count from his rule. Now I bet your wondering how a traveling priest from the Vatican is going to get rid of such a power full monster? Well that is because Abel Nightroad is not human, he is a Crusnik, a vampire that feeds upon the blood of other vampires.

Dracula got wind of the Crusnik, he was going to confront this man and make sure to destroy him. Dracula wasn't about to let this Crusnik make him loose everything he had. Crusnik Father Abel Nightroad finally met the monster Dracula after a few days of his arrival. He and the Count fought long and fought hard but after many long and bloody hours the fight had to end.

Abel finally brought the so called No-Life King down to his knees. He could have finished him with one final blow from his Crusnik's scythe.....that is if Dracula hadn't done something so unexpected. HA! You thought the Vampire King Dracula gave in to Abel Nightroad, a priest! No he wouldn't allow himself to be defeated by someone like the Crusnik. Instead he gave in to his last resort. He split him self into the three powers of Dominus. Dominus anger, Dominus Hatred, and Dominus Agony. He formed the powers with his being into the Hell Hound we now call Cerberus. The priest was taken off guard at first but that didn't make him yield to the three headed beast formerly Lord Dracula.

Cerberus (Dracula) attacked with the three powers of Dominus at once but the effort was futile. The Crusnik gave a swing of his scythe, embedded with energy, and released. The energy spread from the scythe. It completely demolished Cerberus's attacks and still headed towards the used to be King. Cerberus couldn't react fast enough to the attack and got hit. He went sprawling back and collapsed to the ground.

His power was exhausted and he knew he would be defeated by this this....Crusnik! He told Abel just to finish him off. But the priest couldn't do it, he felt sorry for the poor man who reduced himself to such a manner of proportions. He told Cerberus that he would place him in the sky as honor, to make him live among the night. Cerberus accepted this fate and willingly went towards the stars by the Crusnik's power. Forever will Lord Dracula stay, ruling the night sky as his domain.

Cerberus rests next to Crusnik star in honor of Father Abel Nightroad. The three powers of Dominus forms one of the eyes within Cerberus. Some of the other stars that form Cerberus's body are Arma Custos, Dextro Custos, Sinestro Custos, Arma Felix, Arma Chiroptera,Volaticus, Vol Grando, Vol Ignis, Vol Fulgur, Vol Luminato, Vol Umbra and many others. The constillation does not move, it stays in the center of the night sky like it is supposed to so that Cerberus can watch and rule from all sides of the night.
