One day , I went hiking up a mountain. It was a great day to go hiking .The sun was shining, the birds were singing.

Just then ,I realised that there was a mysterious cave a head of me . I wanted to go there, because the suspense was killing me. It was dark like night , down there . I slowly creeped in . I said nervously,"It's very dark in here."My knees were shaking in fear . I was about to run out of the cave ,just then ,my eyes caught attention to a treasure chest at the end of the cave .

I ran reluctantly at the chest, forgetting about that I was just about to run away from the cave.

Suddenly, I tripped over a trip wire which made arrows come out of a wall . I instantly crowled and thankfully no arrows hit me . I began my way to chest .

I picked up the chest and ran for my life.

Then suddenly, there was a cave in ."The place is filling up with water!" I yelled . After that the ground was shaking as much as my knees were.

A clusul bolder made from stone went tombling down on my path.

Just then, I found a dich. I ran into the dich ,hoping I would servived.

Then, my luck was real, the bolder hit the rocks, which that blocked the exit .
Then, I ran out of the cave.

I opened the chest and I found DIAMONDS and AMRAROLS and much much more.

I felt like I am the happiest and luckiest person on the planet.

After that, I decided to charity all this treasure to the poor people of the world.

And this made me more happier than ever.
