The CaveAlicia

One day, a girl named Lucy was playing at home with her friends, when she heard a dog barking outside. She looked out her window and saw a cute, little puppy sitting under a tree. She went downstairs and opened the chestnut door.

The puppy was barking and looking across the road. Lucy told her friends that she would be back soon.

Across the street, hiding behind a tall tree, was a plump man staring at the big house with big, glassy eyes.

As the girl came out of the house and followed the brown dog, the man began to follow her, but it was hard to try hide behind tiny, jade-green bushes and trees while following the girl.

Lucy followed the puppy.

It led her to a cave.

She went inside and saw before her a big opened chest.

Gold was in it.

The man was very amazed at his good luck of the girl leading him to a fortune.

“I will hold her hostage and get all the gold!” he thought greedily.

As Lucy turned around to go back home and tell her family about the gold, in the sand she saw footprints.

Suddenly she felt someone hit her on her head.

When she woke up she was tied to a chair in a very dark room. She could only see the outline of the puppy trying to free her.

As someone walked into the room, the little puppy ran over and started biting the person. After a bit, the man fell to the floor. Lucy could see some blood on the man’s leg.

The dog ran over and started to bite the twisted ropes again.

After a while, the dog finally freed her. She ran back to her house with the puppy running behind her. When she got there, she told her friends the whole story, then rang the police.

“We have been looking for that man for a long time,” they told her. The hurt man had to go to hospital. When her parents came home, they kept hugging her and allowed her to keep the puppy.
