The earlist account of Nüwa repairing the sky in ancient Chinese classics is as following:
往古之时，四极废，九州裂。天不兼覆，地不周载。火爁焱而不灭，水浩洋而不息。猛兽食颛民，鸷鹰攫老弱。于是，女娲炼五色石，以补苍天；断鳌足，以立四极；杀黑龙，以济冀州；积芦灰，以止淫水。
——刘安《淮南子》
Please rewrite the story in English.
In ancient times, the four pillars that supported the four directions of heaven and earth collapsed and the earth cracked; therefore, the sky could not cover all things as it used to be, so did the earth on containing all creatures; the fire spread and could not be extinguished, the floods were too great to be stopped; fierce beasts ate the mass, and fierce birds grabbed the old and the children with their claws. So Nvwa smelted the five-colored stones to repair the sky, cut off the feet of the giant turtles in the sea to make pillars to hold up the four directions, killed the black dragon to save China, and used reed ash to stop the floods.

In the ancient times, the corners of the sky collapsed and the land was shattered. The heaven could not shelter the whole world, nor could the earth bear its entire burden. Fiery flames scorched the earth and never extinguished; boundless floods engulfed the country and never receded. Terrible beasts devoured the kind; vicious raptors ravaged the weak. It was thus that Nuwa molded the five-colored stones to mend the heaven, chopped off the legs of the Great Turtle to support the four corners of the sky, killed the black serpent to salvage the land of Ji, and collected reed ashes to control the floods.

Ferocious beasts dashing on the earth never stopped to devour the innocent human race, while fierce fowls hovering in the midst of heaven never paused to seize vulnerable human beings. Be it man tilling in the field or women grinding in the mill, creatures that swarm over the earth, and mankind would perish. There was weeping and gnashing of teeth in every corner of the world.

In ancient times, the four pillars supporting the Heaven were bent and the earth rent. The Heaven broke, failing to protect all living creatures; the Earth cracked, unable to bear all things. The burning fire spread widely and did not go out for a long time, and the great flood overflowed and did not recede. The fierce beasts devoured the kind people, and the fierce birds seized the old and weak with their claws and then ate them. In face of the situation, Nüwa made five colored stones to mend the sky. Also, she cut off the four feet of the big turtle as the sky’s four pillars, killed the black dragon to save Yizhou, and accumulated the ashes of the reeds to ward off the excessive floods. Finally, the sky was mended along with the four pillars of heaven being made straight. The excessive floods receded, bringing Yizhou peace again.

In ancient times, the four pillars of the sky collapsed and the earth was also cracked. The sky was damaged and could not cover everything, and the ground was sunken and could not carry all creatures. Fire burned out of control, and floods overflowed and never subsided. Beasts swallowed the good people, and ferocious birds used their claws to grab the old and the weak and ate them. So Nuwa made five-color stones to fill the sky; cut off the big turtle's four legs to serve as four pillars; killed the black dragon to save Yizhou, and accumulated the ashes of the reeds to resist excessive flooding. The sky was repaired, and the four pillars were able to stand upright; the excessive floods dried up and Yizhou became peaceful.

In the ancient times, the four pillars of the heaven collapsed and the land shattered. Nor could the heaven could shelter or the land bore the world. Fiery and un-extinguished flames scorched the earth; boundless and un-receded floods engulfed the country. Terrible beasts devoured the kind; vicious raptors ravaged the weak.

When the world was in its infancy, the four pillars supporting the four directions of the sky collapsed and huge cracks dotted the earth.

She then made color stones to mend the sky, broke the legs of a giant turtle to support the four corners of the sky, killed the black dragon to save people and combated the floods with reed ashes.
In ancient times, the four pillars supporting the heaven were broken, and China's land collapsed. The heaven could not completely cover the earth, and the earth could not fully support all things.

Then Nuwa smelted colored stones to repair the heaven, cut off the four feet of a turtle in the sea as the four pillars of heaven, killed the water monster to relieve Jizhou, and collected reed ash to block the flood. The sky was mended, the four heavenly pillars were put in their proper position, the flood waters subsided and Jizhou was pacified. The evil birds and beasts died, but the good people survived.

Long time ago, the four pillars that supported the sky suddenly collapsed and the earth cracked. Therefore, the sky can no longer serve as a shelter, while the earth sank and split into nine parts. The burning fire cannot be stopped, and the whelming flood will never recede. All these wreaked great havoc on the people, who were preyed and fed upon by beasts and falcons. Under such circumstance, Nüwa decided to make five colored stones to mend the sky. Also, she cut off the big turtle's four legs to replace the pillars; killed the black dragon to save Yizhou, and accumulated the ashes of the reeds to resist excessive flooding.
In ancient times, the heaven collapsed and the earth fell apart to pieces. As a dreadful result, the sky could no longer shelter the whole world it used to cover, while the earth could no longer bear the secular creatures it used to nourish. Wild flames kept roaring, fierce floods overran without fading away; beast of prey ate the mass, ferocious eagles grabbed the old and weak. To put a stop to this tragedy, Nüwa collected and smelted the five-colored stones to repair the leak of sky, broke the feet of the giant turtle to support the falling heaven, removed the evil black water dragon to rescue the people and accumulated reed ashes to stop the demon flooding.
I have added some conjunctions to show the inner connection between different phenomena because writings in classical Chinese tend to omit such kind of words. Also I avoid using direct „negative“ verbs to describe Nüwa’s action because of her perfect positive figure in the Chinese culture.

The Chinese legend of Nüwa repairing the sky goes that in ancient times, after the creation of the world and the human beings by Panku and Nüwa respectively, exploded the so-called Water War, in which the mighty Gong was defeated. So furious and humiliated was he that he hit his head into the peak of the Buzhow Mountain. With the peak flying up to the sky, it punched a huge hole in it, which caused the collapse of the dome of heaven. The four pillars that used to hold the sky was ruptured and the earth, cracked into pieces, was sunken. Neither the heaven could cover all things, nor could the earth carry them. The fire burst out with its brutal flame ravaging the land; the flood rushed through with anger deluging the creatures. The beasts of prey devoured innocent people; the fierce birds seized old and weak humans with their piercing claws to fill their stomach.
Witnessing the view of apocalypse, Nüwa melted down a great quantity of rocks and, on the Incredible Crags of the Great Fable Mountains, she moulded the amalagam into 36501 large building blocks, the so-called five-colored stones, to mend the sky, remaining only one block unused. To erect the four pillars to hold the heaven, she cut off the four legs of the great tortoise. To rescue the people of the state Ji, she killed the dragon monster. To dry up the inundation on land, she accumulated the ashes of reeds. From then on, the world was repaired and the innocent people survived.

In ancient times, the four pillars that underpinned the sky collapsed, while the earth also cracked. The sky could not cover all things, and the earth could not either. The fire spread to everywhere and could not be extinguished, and the floods were out of control. Fierce beasts devoured the kind people, and fierce birds clawed at the old and the young. Thus, Nuwa used the five-coloured stones to mend the sky, and cut off the feet of the giant turtles in the sea to make pillars in order to underpin the sky. She killed the devil dragon to save people in Ji, and used reed ashes to stop the floods.
